Moreover, he understood that if Ye Chen could produce so many high-grade soul artifacts at once, then it was very likely that he could produce even more.

Ye Chen raised his eyebrows. The price was already much higher than he had anticipated. It was clear that Manager Chu was resolutely determined to acquire this batch of goods.

He did not plan to negotiate the price. ”Sure,” he stated directly, ”Let us proceed with this price.”

Manager Chu felt immense joy upon hearing this. He immediately stood up and declared, ”Alright! I will prepare the Divine Marbles for you right away. Please hold on for a moment.”

A short time later, Manager Chu returned to the VIP room and presented a storage pouch to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen was too indifferent to check the storage pouch. After all, the God-Gazing Tower still had a reputation to uphold.

He quickly drank the last sip of spirit tea and stood up. ”By the way, Manager Chu, please leave one of your communication jade talismans for me. Additionally, I require a large quantity of soul iron embryos. Your headquarters should possess a significant number of them, correct?”

”I desire all of them. As for the delivery location, I will inform you when the time comes. If I can collect more, that would naturally be preferable. You may deduct the payment for the soul iron embryos from the amount associated with this business transaction.”

Shopkeeper Chu was momentarily taken aback by this request. He gazed at Ye Chen with a puzzled expression. He was not foolish and understood that Ye Chen’s desire for so many soul iron embryos must be linked to the soul artifacts he had just given him. However, he found it difficult to believe.

This young man was capable of forging high-grade soul artifacts? That notion was truly astonishing!

Despite his intense curiosity, he refrained from asking further questions. Instead, he inquired, ”Is Mister Ye planning to leave the city?”

He handed his communication jade talisman to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen nodded. ”That is correct. I still have some matters to attend to in the Lingwu Continent.”

Shopkeeper Chu smiled upon hearing this. ”However, our God-Gazing Tower possesses its own flying ship. If Young Master Ye does not mind, I can arrange it for you. We can travel to any location Young Master Ye desires as quickly as possible.”

”Then I will have to trouble Manager Chu with this,” Ye Chen responded.

He felt pleased. Although he did not particularly enjoy dealing with merchants, he had to admit that sometimes it was convenient to know such individuals.

Just as Ye Chen was preparing to leave, he heard the voice of Divine Doctor Cang Gu emanating from the Samsara Graveyard and returned to his seat.

”Manager Chu, there is one more matter.” He looked at Manager Chu and smiled.

”Does the God-Gazing Tower have a broken golden needle for sale?”

Manager Chu appeared startled. He frowned and contemplated for a moment. Then, he recalled something. ”Please wait a moment.”

A moment later, Manager Chu returned to his room and handed a brocade box to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen opened the brocade box and saw a golden needle inside.

However, the golden needle was broken, as if it had been cut apart by an immensely powerful force.

Ye Chen knew that this golden needle must have belonged to the Divine Doctor Cang Gu.

This needle, capable of contending with a peak-level Great Void realm expert, had been ruthlessly cut apart?

The assailant must have been a Disaster Slaying realm expert.

”Manager Chu, what is the price of this item? I wish to acquire it.”

Unexpectedly, Manager Chu shook his head. ”This item is not worth much. It is already broken. I do not know its origin. Consider it a gift for Young Master Ye. Let us become friends.”

”Thank you, then,” Ye Chen replied, not wishing to waste further words.

This golden needle held no energy. Aside from himself, no one else would be interested in purchasing it.

”Manager Chu, please arrange for my departure now,” Ye Chen instructed once more.

”Very well.”

...

Half an hour later.

Manager Chu returned to the top floor.

However, a hint of suspicion and seriousness flickered in his eyes.

After a considerable period of contemplation, he ultimately retrieved a jade pendant.

A drop of blood essence fell upon it.

The jade pendant glimmered, and the phantom of an old man immediately materialized in the air.

”What is it?”

The old man’s voice was exceedingly cold, and a hint of weakness could be detected.

”Sir, that half of the golden needle has been taken away,” Manager Chu’s voice trembled.

He was aware that this old man controlled the entire God-Gazing Tower, and that this person was also a being of tremendous power within the Divine Kingdom.

”What?” The old man appeared slightly taken aback. He abruptly lifted his head. ”Have you confirmed this person’s identity?”

”Furthermore, why did he take the golden needle?”

Manager Chu shook his head. ”His surname is Ye,” he reported, ”He possesses many soul artifacts. However, I do not know further details.”

”However...”

”But what?!” The old man shouted, his voice straining.

It was filled with an overwhelming desire and boundless anger.

Manager Chu shivered and stated, ”That individual actually possesses a golden card from the God-Gazing Tower. Moreover, the serial number is exceedingly low.”

Upon hearing this, the old man appeared to form a vague hypothesis. ”Does this person resemble the divine doctor?”

Manager Chu endeavored to recall but ultimately replied, ”The serial number is indeed number three. However, this individual is quite young. He does not resemble the divine doctor.”

”Number three?” The old man was filled with great excitement. ”Provide me with this person’s portrait as soon as possible!”

”Additionally, if this individual is indeed the disciple of the ancient Divine Doctor, I shall reward you with entry into the true Divine Kingdom!”

Manager Chu’s legs weakened, causing him to kneel on the ground.

Had he misheard?

He had merely offered a piece of information, yet he was granted the opportunity to enter the Divine Kingdom and serve under this mighty person.

There was also the ancient Divine Doctor!

Could that young man truly be the disciple of the ancient Divine Doctor?

He understood better than anyone what these words signified.

Divine Doctor Cang Gu was among the few individuals that the Divine Kingdom could not afford to offend!

Although cultivators possessed unlimited lifespans, they would eventually confront the exhaustion of their lives or suffer severe injuries.

However, Divine Doctor Cang Gu could revive the deceased, and his extraordinary medical skills were unparalleled.

However, this individual was known for his peculiar temperament, and he had a notorious reputation for refusing to extend his aid.

The reason for the old man’s elation stemmed from his injuries. It was known by all that he had only one year remaining.

In this year, the only possibility lay in locating the Divine Doctor Cang Gu or his successor.

Manager Chu could faintly sense impending change within the Divine Kingdom.

It was likely that the young man who had entered the God-Gazing Tower today could alter the entire situation with a single decision!

...

The flying ship traveled at an exceptionally rapid speed.

Ye Chen looked at the broken golden needle in his hand and inquired with interest, ”Senior, why do you seem troubled by this broken golden needle?”

”It is none of your concern. The transaction between you and me has been completed,” Divine Doctor Cang Gu scoffed coldly.

”If you believe that I will express my gratitude, you are mistaken.”

”I do not take in disciples. Although I am uncertain how I arrived in this place, do not expect me to behave like others.”

”Even if you were to perish, I would not come to your aid.”

”The philosophy that I have adhered to throughout my life is to abandon others in their time of need and provide no assistance.”

Ye Chen did not expect the old man to possess such a temperament.

”Yet I have heard that you saved seventeen individuals.”

”Since you do not aid people, why did you choose to save those seventeen individuals?”
