Nine Revolutions Star Technique

The vast auction hall was silent as a grave.

Fang Baiyu stood there, stunned, as if turned into a stone statue, his eyes full of disbelief.

In the hall, those who were originally either rejoicing in others’ misfortune or full of sympathy almost popped their eyes out at this moment.

Only Han Buxiu showed a mocking expression, looking at Fang Baiyu as if he were a dead man. Even Tang Yue displayed a respectful demeanor in front of Ye Qingchen. And what qualifications did the Fang Family, which relied on the Tang Family to establish itself in Extreme Wilderness City, have to challenge Ye Qingchen?

”Steward Tang?”

Fang Baiyu’s face changed dramatically, but there was still a glimmer of hope in his heart. He braced himself and asked,

”What is going on? This young man is...”

”Fang Baiyu, how dare you be so audacious!” Before he could finish speaking, Steward Tang rudely interrupted him, ”Mr. Ye is a distinguished guest invited by our Patriarch, and you dare to offend him?”

Boom!

The moment the words fell.

An uproar erupted around.

Fang Baiyu nearly bit through his tongue!

How could this be?

One must understand, Tang Yue’s status was so noble, nearly a sovereign ruler in Extreme Wilderness City. Even he could not meet him just as he wished!

This young man was actually Tang Yue’s honored guest?

Thinking of this, Fang Baiyu’s face turned deathly pale, and he felt as if his spine had been extracted, making him totter.

”Mr. Ye, I am late!” At this moment, Steward Tang offered Ye Qingchen an apologetic smile, ”I did not expect the Fang Family to be so insensible to act this way!”

Having spoken, Steward Tang was furious beyond measure.

What manner of person was Ye Qingchen? Even their own master must treat him with deference. Yet he was humiliated by Fang Baiyu at an auction venue, nearly ruining the master’s important business.

”Mr. Ye, how do you think the Fang Family should be handled?”

”I previously said that if he knelt and beheaded himself upon entry, I might leave a trace of bloodline for the Fang Family, but he did not!” Ye Qingchen glanced lightly at Fang Baiyu and said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Fang Baiyu trembled, frightened, and fell to his knees, kowtowing and begging for mercy, ”Steward, save me, for the sake of my years of service for the Tang Family, spare my life...”

”Since it’s Mr. Ye’s instruction, we must comply!” However, Steward Tang remained unmoved, and respectfully nodded to Ye Qingchen, ”Please, Mr. Ye, if you would be so kind to proceed, the Patriarch awaits your esteemed presence at the residence!”

”Very well!”

Ye Qingchen nodded.

Under the extremely shocked gaze of the crowd, he did not spare a glance at the sprawled Fang Baiyu but directly left with Han Buxiu, following Steward Tang.

As soon as Ye Qingchen left, the entire auction hall exploded as if it had been detonated.

”This is simply unbelievable! This young man is actually a guest of the Tang Family! A guest of honor to Tang Yue!”

”No wonder he was fearless of the Fang Family, who would have thought he had such power! This time, the Fang Family has really kicked an iron plate! They’ve provoked an unprovokable existence!”

”The disparity between the two sides is truly too great!”

Indeed, very great!

The Fang Family, relying on the Tang Family as a backer, could establish themselves in Extreme Wilderness City. But now that Fang Baiyu offended Ye Qingchen, whom even Tang Yue had to deliberately cater to, the outcome was self-explanatory!

More people turned their gaze toward Fang Baiyu.

Everyone was internally shocked beyond measure.

Could these two, just in their idle conversation, have decided the life or death of the Fang Family?

When Ye Qingchen met Fang Baiyu earlier and casually spoke, many regarded it as the reckless words of an ordinary youth who knew not the height of the sky.

But now, no one dared harbor even a shred of doubt.

...

Ye Qingchen and Han Buxiu left the auction hall and directly entered the Tang Family Hall.

”Mr. Ye, you have finally arrived!”

As soon as Ye Qingchen arrived, Tang Yue greeted him with the utmost respect, invited him to the seat of honor, and ordered aromatic tea to be served. Only after he sat down did Ye Qingchen casually ask,

”Patriarch Tang summoned me back in a hurry, did news come from the tomb?”

”Yes!” Tang Yue did not conceal anything and nodded, ”Just now, Mr. Zheng sent someone back to relay a message that they’ve discovered the entrance to the Earth Immortal Tomb, so they asked us to prepare, and once the entrance is opened, we can directly explore the tomb!”

”What preparations are needed?”

Ye Qingchen asked casually.

”Just some elixirs, manpower, talismans, protective talismans, and the like. But Mr. Ye, don’t worry, I will handle these matters!” Tang Yue patted his chest, ”It’s just, there might be Tomb Guardian Beasts or other forces eyeing us, so we might need Mr. Ye to take action when the time comes!”

Even if a Heavenly and Earthly Treasure appears, it would trigger a scramble.

Not to mention an Earth Immortal Tomb?

In the Kunlun Realm, such events of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind often occur, so he must arrange with Ye Qingchen in advance.

”Rest assured! Since you invited me over, these matters are naturally under my watch,” Ye Qingchen said calmly, ”Since the tomb has not yet been opened, I might as well refine a furnace of potent elixirs to aid Han Buxiu in stepping into the Human Immortal Ninth Layer.”

”Human Immortal Ninth Layer!”

Tang Yue was increasingly shocked at these words.

Knowing the significance of the matter, Tang Yue did not dare squander any time and immediately ordered a Quiet Chamber to be prepared. Arranging an Array outside the Quiet Chamber and instructing Han Buxiu to stand guard, Ye Qingchen began the alchemy process.

”Although not as good as my Hidden Dragon Mountain, this place is far better than the Valley of Life and Death!”

Ye Qingchen took out various Spirit Grass and herbs, tossing them into the Crimson Mist Cauldron, and couldn’t help but quietly sigh. Previously, in the Valley of Life and Death, refining a furnace of pills was an exhausting ordeal.

Now, under such circumstances, it was much simpler.

”Back in the Valley of Life and Death, Han Buxiu was close to entering the Human Immortal Ninth Layer, but due to a lack of Spiritual Qi, he had to forcibly use Qi Blood to step into this Realm! Had I not defeated him, injuring his essence, he could have stepped into the Human Immortal Ninth Layer the moment he left the Valley of Life and Death!”

”Nevertheless, it’s not too late, once this furnace of pills is completed, he can break through in at most three days!”

Ye Qingchen casually tossed the last obtained Celestial Fragrance Fruit into the Crimson Mist Cauldron, forming a hand seal, sealing the lid, and stimulating the furnace fire, fully pushing with True Qi. The furnace fire suddenly turned into a raging dragon, rotating around the Crimson Mist Cauldron.

Before long, a faint medicinal aroma wafted from within the Alchemy Furnace.

”But I wonder, is there a providence awaiting me in this grand tomb...”

Ye Qingchen sighed inwardly, collecting his scattered thoughts back to the Crimson Mist Cauldron before him.

...

Meanwhile, as Ye Qingchen secluded himself in alchemy, he was unaware that a formidable enemy had already approached, arriving at the Ice Wind Valley, one thousand three hundred miles away from Extreme Wilderness City!
