This Innate Source-Breaking Pill, how could Jia Ping, as the appraiser of the commerce association, not recognize it!

It was just auctioned off at their monthly auction not long ago, and in the blink of an eye, here it is again.

Doesn't this mean that the people from the Blood Evil Sect who auctioned the Innate Source-Breaking Pill before were killed by the person in front of him?!

Moreover, the grandmaster battle that took place an hour ago might also be related to this person!

If he isn't the Hermit Grandmaster himself, he must be someone trusted by the Hermit Grandmaster, otherwise, the Innate Source-Breaking Pill wouldn't have been handed over to this man wearing a conical hat.

"Please wait here for a moment, I will be right back." Jia Ping spoke with great respect and caution, quickly leaving the quiet room in a hurry.

Regarding such a treasure, Jia Ping no longer had the qualifications to appraise it; a higher-ranked appraiser was necessary.

Moments later, when the two reappeared in the quiet room, Lu Ye looked up.

Besides Jia Ping, the other person was unexpectedly the chief auctioneer of the commerce association, someone named Ruxue.

Upon hearing the news, Ruxue hurriedly came with Jia Ping.

As soon as she entered the door, Ruxue walked to Lu Ye, who was wearing a conical hat, and subtly sniffed the air with her small, delicate nose...

It's him!

Ruxue felt a little shaken in her heart, gazing at the Innate Source-Breaking Pill, she was not shaken because of the elixir, but because of... the Hermit Martial Arts Grandmaster, whose tales were spreading like wildfire in the city.

Now he stood not far in front of her!

She really wanted... to lift the conical hat from his head, to see who it really was.

Ruxue also knew that this desire to uncover the Hermit Martial Arts Grandmaster's identity was dangerous and quickly suppressed it, revealing a sweet smile.

"Might I ask if you are here to have the elixir appraised, dear guest?"

Opposite, Lu Ye noticed the slight change in Ruxue's gaze but didn't care.

Since he took out this elixir again, as long as the auction house wasn't foolish, they would definitely notice something.

Lu Ye tossed the pill bottle to Ruxue, saying, "Go ahead and appraise it."

Ruxue widened her eyes, carefully and gently catching the casually tossed 'billion silver' guarantee.

No wonder he was an elusive figure capable of slaying two Martial Arts Grandmasters so effortlessly.

If someone didn't know better, they might think this was some kind of shabby elixir.

After spending some time, Ruxue carefully appraised it and confirmed that this Innate Source-Breaking Pill was indeed the one that left the auction hall a few days ago.

"Dear guest, the elixir is confirmed to be the Innate Source-Breaking Pill!" Ruxue had a thought flash through her mind and softly said, "Would it be convenient for you to have a chat in my room?"

Lu Ye pondered for a moment and nodded his agreement.

A few minutes later, the two had moved to a larger room, and after Ruxue entered, she smiled and said, "Please have a seat."

This room was spacious, the living room outside seemed to resemble Jia Ping's appraisal room, while the inside appeared to be where Ruxue usually lived and slept.

Upon entering, there was a faint fragrance lingering in the air.

After Lu Ye sat down, Ruxue continued, "Might I ask for your name so Ruxue can properly address you?"

"Chen Nanxuan."

"So it's Young Master Chen, Ruxue extends her courtesy." Ruxue smiled charmingly and said, "As for your Innate Source-Breaking Pill, Ruxue's suggestion is... not to auction it in Cloud Leaf City."

Upon hearing this, Lu Ye was a bit curious and asked, "Oh? What makes you say that."

As the chief auctioneer of the auction house, it was indeed surprising for her to suggest against auctioning, which piqued Lu Ye's interest.

Ruxue slightly adjusted her words and said, "If Ruxue isn't mistaken, Young Master Chen... you must already be in the Martial Arts Grandmaster realm, right?"

Under the conical hat, Lu Ye neither confirmed nor denied it and responded calmly, "Continue."

Seeing the man with the conical hat neither admit nor deny it, Ruxue lightly smiled, realizing she was probably right.

He wasn't just someone under the Hermit Grandmaster; most likely, he was the Hermit Grandmaster himself!

"What Ruxue thinks is that, since you are a Martial Arts Grandmaster, silver is useful to you, but maybe not that much anymore."

"So if you have the patience, Ruxue recommends you wait another two months. At that time, there will be a grand event in Eastern Xuanzhou, and our Bai Chuan Commerce Association will hold a grand auction during that period."

"Then, we can help you set the Innate Source-Breaking Pill for auction with Source Crystals as the starting price. What do you think?"

Listening to Ruxue's words, Lu Ye was slightly moved.

Source Crystal auction?

Currently, the number of Source Crystals he had, combined with the ones given by Red Cloud Fairy and sponsored by Three Yin Saint Son, barely amounted to about twenty.

Fortunately, having taken the spoils from that short and thin Grandmaster Fifth Layer and the Blood Evil's ring, he managed to gather about twenty more.

But even then, he only had around forty Source Crystals in total.

With full cultivation effort, they could be completely consumed in one or two months.

Far from meeting his requirements.

Moreover, Source Crystals were also useful for Xiao Ling; as the little fellow's level increased, the condensed Origin Spirit Liquid would also be more effective.

As for silver, reaching extracted amounts of at least a million taels was still manageable.

During this time, Lu Ye hadn't gone for a designated extraction, hoping for a chance to obtain spiritual objects like the Four Divine Fruits.

If he could obtain them, it would be much better than some useless talent or constitution.

But fortunately, even though his two random extractions didn't yield the Four Divine Fruits or similar items,

They did provide two Grandmaster Pills, which were far superior to the Innate Pill, making it a very good guarantee.

After pondering for a while, Lu Ye nodded and said, "In that case, let's wait for the Eastern Territory event."

At this moment, Ruxue held a diamond VIP card bordered with lines of gold, smiling as she handed it to Lu Ye, "Young Master Chen, this is our Bai Chuan Commerce Association's Diamond VIP Card. With this card, you can enjoy a 30% discount at any of our commerce branches."

"Furthermore, when auctioning items with us, no handling fees will be charged. This is our way of showing respect to our esteemed customers."

At first, Lu Ye wasn't too moved by the VIP card benefits.

But upon hearing the latter part, he was indeed tempted.

From now on, auctioning items there wouldn't incur any fees?

Effectively using Bai Chuan Auction House's resources to auction items for free.

It's undeniable that being able to operate on a chain scale across Xuanzhou, this Bai Chuan Commerce Association truly has a knack for business.

This move, Lu Ye understood very well, was naturally to build good relations with martial arts experts, as forming connections is the essence of doing business.

"Alright, I'll accept it. Thank you." After a moment of contemplation, Lu Ye decided not to decline this goodwill.

...

A moment later, as she watched the man under the conical hat accept the VIP card and agree to meet again at the Bai Chuan Commerce Association's Eastern Territory headquarters, Ruxue's eyes flashed with a faint brilliance.

"What kind of person is really under that conical hat?"

Since this Martial Arts Grandmaster has accepted the goodwill from Bai Chuan Commerce Association, it indicates that there will be plenty of opportunities for interaction in the future.

Ruxue had confidence that she would eventually uncover the true identity of the man beneath the conical hat!
