Chapter 234: Fourth Level of the Zang Wu Pavilion
Yang Hualong!
Ye Yun hadn’t expected to cross paths with Yang Hualong indirectly even in the Trading Market.
“Isn’t he the Master of Junzi Hall at Shadowless Peak? How did he end up managing the Trading Market?” Ye Yun asked curiously.
“You must not have heard—Senior Brother Yang broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage three months ago. Sect rules mandate that all newly promoted Foundation Establishment disciples undertake a mandatory task. Senior Brother Yang was assigned to oversee the Trading Market this month,” Qin Qianhan explained.
Ye Yun’s brow furrowed. Yang Hualong had indeed reached the Foundation Establishment stage as he’d suspected. Rumors claimed the man’s talent was exceptional; his true strength likely surpassed ordinary first-level Foundation Establishment disciples, enabling him to challenge those above his rank.
Ye Yun wasn’t confident about facing Yang Hualong now. If his own cultivation advanced further, he might stand a chance against early-stage Foundation Establishment experts. Even against third-level opponents, escape would be possible if he couldn’t win.
But as things stood, victory was far from certain.
“I see. Very well, Qin Qianhan—tell Yang Hualong I’ll visit Junzi Hall to settle this soon.” Ye Yun turned to leave.
“Ye Yun, halt! Leaving without permission violates Trading Market regulations and disrespects sect law. Consider the consequences!” Qin Qianhan’s voice hardened, mistaking Ye Yun’s departure for fear of Yang Hualong.
Ye Yun smiled coldly. “You’re mistaken, Qin Qianhan. Don’t hide behind regulations. If Elder Shi’s descendants flout the rules here, so can I. Try stopping me if you dare.”
He cast a dismissive glance at Qin Qianhan and the Enforcement Team before walking away.
Qin Qianhan’s face darkened with rage, murderous intent burning in his eyes. Yet he remained powerless.
For centuries, the Enforcement Team’s authority had rarely been challenged—until Ye Yun and the Fat and Thin Brothers arrived. Most pinnacle Qi refining disciples avoided provoking them, but Ye Yun’s boldness was unprecedented.
“I’ll report this to Senior Brother Yang and the sect’s higher-ups!” Qin Qianhan shouted.
Ye Yun ignored him, exiting the market amid whispers from stunned onlookers.
Qin Qianhan stormed off with his team, their dignity shattered. “A mere nobody has grown this arrogant? You’ll regret this, Ye Yun!”
White Xianxing watched Ye Yun’s departure, a faint smile playing on his lips.
Ye Yun headed straight to Shadowless Peak’s Zang Wu Pavilion. With 52,100 Contribution Points and his status as a Peak Master’s Registered Disciple, he could access higher-level Celestial Techniques.
The pavilion resembled Tian Zhu Peak’s—same unguarded entrance, same spatial magical arrays on upper floors. Inside, a young disciple glanced up from his book.
“Here to select techniques,” Ye Yun said, presenting his identity token.
The disciple startled, then recited the rules. “First two floors: 100 Contribution Points. Borrowing fees apply after selection. Which level?”
Ye Yun frowned. The lower floors held only eighth or ninth-tier techniques. “I want a fifth-tier technique. What’s the cost?”
The disciple scanned his token. “Registered Disciple of the Peak Master? You qualify for the fourth level—sixth or seventh-tier. Fifth-tier requires higher clearance.”
Suppressing a smile, Ye Yun feigned disappointment. “Fourth level, then.”
“Entrance: 1,000 Points. Two techniques max. Borrowing fee: 5,000 per.” The disciple pointed to a fee chart.
Fifth-floor access cost 10,000 Points—sixth and seventh floors required recommendations from the Four Peak Masters or Supreme Elder.
After deducting 1,000 Points, the disciple handed Ye Yun an orange crystal. “Follow me.”
They reached a door marked “Four.” Inserting the crystal activated a spatial array, revealing an orange archway.
As Ye Yun stepped through, the archway vanished.
The watching disciple smirked.
