Chapter 362 Ch 362: Chu Futian
Ye Xiao was a human, and a human's appearance inside the Underground Chamber of the Sky Pavilion was a big matter.
After all, what will happen if Ye Xiao turns out to be a spy from another similarly powerful force?
Sky Pavilion was a big force but it doesn't mean it is the only force in this Land. There are several such forces controlled by higher-ranked people of Holy Spirit Palace.
Human reputation was extremely bad in this Land for some reason. It was already very good that Spiritas doesn't treat humans badly, they treat humans equally.
However, the sincerity they showed humans is nothing more than a false display of emotion. Their wounds were still not healed and they consider humans the most disgusting creature in Chaos, just a single rank above Chaos Beasts.
Why?
It is because something must have happened in the past.
What?
Only Spiritas of this Land know.
Anyway, Spiritas controls this Land. Under the order of their leader sitting on the highest chair in the Holy Spirit Palace, they didn't treat humans differently, and it was already the biggest thing they could do.
Ye Xiao's appearance inside the underground chamber of Sky Pavilion attracted the two old man's attention. In a flash, they appeared in front of Ye Xiao and Fu Jian.
"Lord Sun, Lord Qin!"
Fu Jian immediately greeted the two old men. It was clear that these two old men were not just mere guards, they also held some status in the Sky Pavilion. Furthermore, their status is clearly much above Fu Jian's.
The two old men nodded their heads calmly. One of them asked in a cold voice, "What exactly caused you to actually bring a human through Secret Teleportation Formation in the Underground Chamber? You must know that only in an emergency could that chamber be used. If you can not give out a valid reason, you'll have to bear the responsibility and punishment."
"Lord Sun, actually..."
Fu Jian trembled uncontrollably when the two old men looked at him with such a cold expression. He immediately started explaining why he had to use the Teleportation Formation and bring a human here. At the same time, he took out the ten drops of Morning Brilliance Dew to show the two old men.
Lord Sun frowned and took the Morning Brilliance Dew. The more he observed, the more his expression changed.
Seeing the change in his expression, Lord Qin frowned. In fact, he could also feel the marvel of this treasure called Morning Brilliance Dew.
In the end, the two of them looked at each other and nodded their heads. They seemed to have a tacit understanding of what to do next.
The coldness in their gazes reduced a lot and gentleness appeared.
Lord Qin then brought Ye Xiao and Fu Jian to the guest room. He left Ye Xiao there and took Fu Jian somewhere.
Ye Xiao had to wait for a few hours before the gate of the guest room opened once again.
However, this time, not one or two people came. A whole bunch of people entered the room.
Ye Xiao could feel the auras on their bodies. They were all Mystic Sovereigns and above.
A total of seven people entered the room. They were Fu Jian, Lord Sun, Lord Qin, and other people who held high status. The only exception was a cute little child of fifteen to sixteen years.
Ye Xiao could feel an abundant vitality in her body. It was clear that the drop of Morning Brilliance Dew was used on this little lady.
Among this group of people, the strongest was a Peak Chaos Sovereign Realm Spiritas. Everyone was a step behind him. Only the cute little lady was standing shoulder-to-shoulder with this man.
It was obvious that she was the closest kin to this man.
When these people entered, they created a momentum that only a group of powerful people with authority could create.
Nonetheless, Ye Xiao did not stand up to greet them. He remained sitting and this was not liked by many Spiritas. They all frowned but did not dare to voice out their displeasure because their leader had not spoken a single word.
That man did not seem to mind Ye Xiao's behavior. He sat down opposite Ye Xiao with his daughter and spoke with a wide smile on his face: "You must be Ling Xiaolong, the human who brought a treasure like Morning Brilliance Dew. You might not know but I badly needed this treasure to cure my daughter."
Stopping for a moment, certain emotions appeared in his eyes. He then continued, "Let me introduce myself. My name is Chu Futian and I'm the current Leader, also the 107th Leader, of Sky Pavilion. I heard you are here to sell the Morning Brilliance Dew. I have already used a drop of this treasure and know just how marvelous it is. Don't worry, I'll give you a satisfactory price."
Taking a deep breath, he continued, "I will give you a billion Soul Crystals for a drop of Morning Brilliance Dew. There are a total of nine drops here, plus that one drop which I've already used to cure my daughter. It'll be a total of ten billion Soul Crystals. If you agree, then let's continue with the trade!"
Everyone sucked in a deep breath of air. The price given by Chu Futian could be said to be overwhelming. It was to the point of causing a greedy light to flash in the eyes of Spiritas present inside this room.
Ye Xiao does not know the value of a Soul Crystal, but he does know the value of his Morning Brilliance Dew. In his eyes, what Chu Futian was giving him was just enough to be called a satisfactory price. Nothing more and nothing less.
"It is a deal then!"
He did not think much. He immediately agreed to the transaction.
Chu Futian did not say anything more. He gave Ye Xiao a spatial ring. It was clear that he came prepared.
Ye Xiao took the spatial ring and checked. This spatial ring was filled with a mountain of Soul Crystals. There were exactly ten billion Soul Crystals.
What surprised Ye Xiao more was that the moment he looked at the Soul Crystals, his soul reacted. It seemed to be greedy for this kind of crystal filled with Soul Energy.
His soul reacted to the Soul Crystals only because it was filled with very pure Soul Energy. It was so pure that bringing out such soul energy from other sources would require a very long period of refining.
Let's take Yu Tian's soul as an example. Yu Tian had a very powerful soul, however, the Soul Force Ye Xiao received by devouring his Soul was not that much. It was like a drop in a bucket of water, and even that drop was not pure enough.
If Ye Xiao wanted to extract the pure Soul Energy, he would have to refine that drop of Soul Force many times. It would have caused the loss of a large amount of Soul Energy.
Ye Xiao took a deep breath and a light flashed in his eyes. It seems his journey to the Land of Spiritas was not without gain. He only needs to find a large amount of Soul Crystals to increase his own Soul Force.
Chu Futian already knew that Ye Xiao had just come to the Land of Spiritas. When he saw Ye Xiao had already checked the Spatial Ring, he spoke again, "Let's forget about the value of Soul Crystals in other Lands, even on this Land, you can exchange a hundred Energy Crystals for a single Soul Crystals. The amount I gave you is not small."
Ye Xiao nodded calmly and put away the Soul Crystals. He had already decided to devour all of them after leaving this place.
However, he did not want to leave just yet. He thought for a second and spoke again, "I have another treasure in my hand. It is in no way less valuable than Morning Brilliance Dew. If used wisely, this treasure can be proved to be even more valuable. Do you want to take a look?"
Not only Chu Futian, but everyone's eyes flashed with light.
Since Ye Xiao has spoken such words, no one doubted him. If Ye Xiao could take out Morning Brilliance Dew, he could also take out other such treasures.
In their eyes, Ye Xiao must have explored an ancient ruin or something to obtain so many marvelous treasures.
They could have tried to use force to make Ye Xiao obediently submit the treasures to them. However, no matter how greedy they were for treasures, they did not dare to risk the reputation of Sky Pavilion.
What if Ye Xiao still had a treasure that could let him escape? At that time, he might spread a rumor about the bad deeds the Sky Pavilion has done. He might be proved to be a bad influence on the reputation of Sky Pavilion.
People like Ye Xiao who dares to travel in the vast void of Chaos, going from one Land to another, always have many tricks up their sleeves to escape with their lives.
No one dared to underestimate Ye Xiao.
