This treasure was hidden in a secluded place, and finding it depended on luck.
After walking with Mu Wan and the others for a while, Han Muye took a fancy to a five-story building.
This building had a sign that said ‘Cloud Dragon Pavilion’ and it sold various spiritual materials, pills, and armors.
The goods were a bit disorganized, and there were many customers.
The first and second floors had various low-level spiritual materials, the third and fourth floors had pills and armors, and the fifth floor was semi-exclusive, only accessible to major customers.
“Fellow Daoist Han, are you really interested in our Cloud Dragon Pavilion?” In the five-story building, a middle-aged cultivator in a green silk robe fixed his gaze on Han Muye and spoke softly.
He was somewhat surprised that this cultivator, whose cultivation level did not seem very high, dared to inquire about buying the Cloud Dragon Pavilion.
“Manager Hu, please quote a price.” Han Muye stood by the window, looking at the bustling scene outside, and spoke lightly.
His tone was filled with an air of authority, which made the manager pause for a moment.
The shopkeeper’s name was Hu Jiran, and he was also a Golden Immortal.
After a moment of contemplation, he arched his hand and said, “Han Daoist friend, I am the manager in charge here, but the matter of the Cloud Dragon Pavilion is not something I can decide on my own. Please wait for the shop owner.”
He waved a jade token and then waited by the corridor.
Half an hour later, an old man in his fifties wearing a silver-white robe strode over.
“Third Uncle.” Hu Jiran bowed in respect.
The old man waved his hand and looked at Han Muye, who was in front of the window sill.
A Golden Immortal.
But his bearing was extraordinary.
“Young friend, you want to buy Cloud Dragon Pavilion?”
The old man smiled and said, “I’m Hu Yunlong, the owner of this Cloud Dragon Pavilion.”
Han Muye nodded and cupped his hands. “Senior, please name your price. I’m interested in Cloud Dragon Pavilion.”
Hu Yunlong was not in a hurry. He smiled and reached out to invite Han Muye to sit at the table, then gestured for Hu Jiran to serve tea and spiritual fruits. “But why do you want to buy the Cloud Dragon Pavilion?”
Han Muye picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip. “I came from outside the Heavenly Abyss and want to do some business. The location of the Cloud Dragon Pavilion suits my purpose.”
“Just for the location?”
A hint of curiosity appeared on Hu Yunlong’s face.
He couldn’t believe that this young cultivator didn’t know his own background or the influence behind the Cloud Dragon Pavilion, yet he was ready to make an offer.
Hu Yunlong’s eyes sparkled.
“From beyond the Heavenly Abyss…”
He stared at Han Muye and said, “Little Fellow Daoist, are you a sword cultivator?”
The sword intent on Han Muye’s body was restrained, so outsiders couldn’t see it at all.
At this moment, a sharp sword intent flashed across his body, making Hu Yunlong raise his eyebrows.
“I’m a sword cultivator.”
“Sword cultivator.” Hu Yunlong revealed a smile and nodded and said, “Alright, then we can talk.”
He continued with a smile, “How about this? 500,000 divine crystals, and I’ll give you a 30% share in the Cloud Dragon Pavilion.
“Alternatively, you can stay and manage the Cloud Dragon Pavilion, and I will only take a 20% profit share.”
Hu Yunlong looked at Han Muye and said, “You’re not a native of Ten Thousand Magnificence City, and this business can be challenging. It might be better to let me handle it.”
500,000 divine crystals was already a considerable sum when converted to immortal spiritual rocks.
Even a large sect might struggle to fork out 10 ,ooo divine crystals.
Hu Yunlong had guessed that Han Muye had some influential backing, which was why he proposed this price.
His price was already sky-high.
The Cloud Dragon Pavilion, including its inventory, was not worth so many divine crystals.
The other cooperation option was also based on Han Muye’s potential backing.
“500,000 divine crystals, 30%…” Han Muye looked up at his surroundings, then shook his head and said, “Senior, you’re right. You are a part of Ten Thousand Magnificence City, and doing business here is a challenge.” Hu Yunlong’s face broke into a smile.
However, the next moment, his smile froze on his face.
Han Muye raised his hand and placed a golden box on the table in front of him.
“Here are two million divine crystals. I want 90% of the Cloud Dragon Pavilion, and I’ll leave you withi0% of the profits.
Two million divine crystals!
Hu Jiran opened his mouth wide.
Hu Yunlong narrowed his eyes.
An hour later, the Cloud Dragon Pavilion changed ownership.
Hu Jiran, who continued to serve as the manager of the Cloud Dragon Pavilion, accompanied Hu Yunlong out of the shop and asked in a low voice, “Third Uncle, you actually sold the Cloud Dragon Pavilion?”
He felt a bit despondent.
After all, he had spent tens of thousands of years here and always considered it his own business.
Now, he was working for someone else.
“He offered too much.” Hu Yunlong sighed with a wry smile and shook his head.
Hu Jiran’s mouth twitched, and he nodded.
Indeed, all the goods in the entire Cloud Dragon Pavilion, including the shop, were only worth less than 100,000 divine crystals.
Two million Divine Gems was enough to build another twenty Cloud Dragon Pavilions.
What’s more, leaving 10% of the profits?
“Third Uncle, why did you keep me here? What faction is behind Young Master Han?” Hu Jiran asked curiously.
His own third uncle was a disciple of an Immortal Venerable. What kind of force could make him interested in recruiting someone?
“He’s a sword cultivator, and he came from outside,” Hu Yunlong lowered his voice and said, “He’s likely associated with the Yang Dingtian.
“Yang Dingtian from the Scarlet Heaven Immortal World is one of the most likely candidates to achieve the position of Immortal Venerable through the path of sword cultivation.”
To become an Immortal Venerable through sword cultivation was a rare and formidable feat, making them unparalleled in combat.
Hu Jiran’s eyes lit up, and he nodded. “Third Uncle, don’t worry. I know what to do.”
Huang Zhihu’s flying ship encountered many dangers along the way before reaching Ten Thousand Magnificence City.
However, he was in a dilemma outside Ten Thousand Magnificence City.
Among them, the one with the highest cultivation level was Golden Flame. Based on Golden Flame’s cultivation level, it was enough to go to the third level of Ten Thousand Magnificence City.
However, they didn’t know anyone there, so it was much more dangerous..
