Primordial Harem System

There were a lot of shops and stalls set up all over the place, Shen Yuan decided to go towards the main street, looking around here and there.

He saw a lot of people selling and buying their goods as they moved through the bustling place. The air was filled with lively chatter of the merchants Hawking their wares.

The scent of exotic herbs, spices, and street food wafted through the air.

Shen Yuan, Shen Yuxin, Huo Rong, and Bing Rong walked through the main street. They looked at all types of different goods displayed by the merchants, the wide variety of goods ignited a little hope inside of Shen Yuan.

Shen Yuxin then asked, "What do you think, Yuan'er? Anything that interests you?"

She asked him, thinking whether he would find something to saturate his bloodline here, even though she had no hope for it, looking at the low-quality stuff lying around everywhere.

Shen Yuan smiled lightly as he replied, "Nothing so far, but even if we don't find anything, we have to make the most of the day." He looked around and saw a shop named 'Heavenly Merchant Pavilion', "Let's go see that place."

Huo Rong looked at it, "Oh, this chamber of commerce has its branch here as well?"

Shen Yuxin smiled softly as she explained, "With its sheer size, it isn't that surprising that a branch exists here. Well, let's go and visit this place. It's been so long since I last visited their branch."

Shen Yuan and the others nodded as they walked towards Heavenly Merchant Pavilion.

The guards at the entrance hurriedly stood straight, not daring to neglect the coming guests. The pavilion itself was an impressive structure, even grander than the neighboring establishments.

It was decorated with carvings of different spiritual beasts, and its name was written in bold writing at the front. Shen Yuan could feel a different type of pressure being released by the handwriting as if a mighty warrior was ready for war.

As they reached the entrance, the guards bowed and opened the large double doors, which were inlaid with jewelry.

Shen Yuan acknowledged them with a nod and entered the pavilion, followed by Shen Yuxin, Huo Rong, and Bing Rong.

Inside the pavilion, the atmosphere was completely different from the hustle and bustle of the marketplace. The interior was lavishly decorated with fine carpets, marble floors, and much more.

Inside, rows of shelves were lined up with all kinds of treasures, from rare herbs and alchemy tools to ores and weapons.

A well-dressed attendant approached them with a polite smile on her face. "Welcome to the Heavenly Merchant Pavilion, dear guests. How may I be of help today?"

Shen Yuan moved his eyes away from the shelves of treasures and looked at the female attendant. She was wearing a light pink colored flowing robe. She had black hair and brown eyes, and a normal-looking face. The kind that won't stand out in a crowd.

Shen Yuan took a moment before he replied, "We are just browsing for now, but we are looking for rare and unique treasures. Do you have something that interests me?"

The attendant's eyes gleamed with interest as she raised her head proudly and declared, "There is nothing that our Heavenly Merchant Pavilion can't sell in the Eastern Desolate region. It's just a matter of price. Please follow me to the 9th floor, esteemed guests. You won't find such treasures even in bigger cities."

Shen Yuan and others nodded as they believed her words and followed her to the upper floors.

As Shen Yuan passed floor by floor, he saw different types of treasures in each level, with the higher he went the higher quality of goods he could spot.

Soon they reached the 9th floor, as this place was pretty desolate in contrast to the lower floors which were teeming with many people. There were only a few people on the whole floor.

One particular group stuck out like a sore thumb. A young man with a few guards as his entourage was looking around the place as well.

The female attendant spoke up at this time, "This is our collection of all types of unique or unknown treasures that we couldn't identify."

Shen Yuan decided to ignore all the others and focus on what he came here for.

Shen Yuan and his group began looking around the shelves, examining various treasures to see if something could catch their attention.

The 9th floor of the Heavenly Merchant Pavilion had an array of rare and mysterious items, many of which couldn't be identified even by the pavilion experts.

There were strange glowing ores. Shen Yuan asked inside his head while extending his hand forward to check it out, 'Hey, Yue Lan, do you know what this glowing ore is?'

Yue Lan replied while laughing,

[Hahaha, that's Sacred Vein Refining Behemoth's shit. They are pretty rare spiritual beasts whose sects train to refine ores. Hahaha, you really have some luck to find shit here.]

Shen Yuan felt his eye twitch as he hurriedly retracted his hand and took his family further away from that area.

"Hmm? What happened, Yuan'er?" Huo Rong asked as she saw him taking them away from the area near the ores before they could even check it properly.

Shen Yuan wiped his sweat as he replied, "Cough, nothing. That ore seemed smelly to me, so I took you guys away from it." He hurriedly looked around to change the subject as he didn't want them to know how close they were to a beast's shit.

"Hey, look at this ancient-looking scroll—" Before he could even finish speaking, Yue Lan's voice echoed in his mind.

[Hahahaha, that's the scribbling of a child from a long-lost era. It's worthless just like your luck, Hahaha]

Yue Lan couldn't stop laughing at Shen Yuan's luck. He felt a vein popping on his head as he turned and looked at another treasure.

"What about this Treasured Sword? It looks like it can slay even Immo—" Once again, Yue Lan interrupted him while laughing,

[Bahahaha, it's a broken cursed sword. Its users will be cursed to wear a green hat for however long they live.]
