The Great White Meteorite Iron!

Tear-Stained Scarlet Shadow Grass!

Shi Yu’s heart pounded every time he identified one of the treasures. When he finished, he fell into a somewhat dazed state.

It wasn’t his first time seeing such earthshaking treasures, but it was the first time so many were being presented to him at once!

Among them, many were extremely rare treasures that had long disappeared from the world.

For a moment, Shi Yu felt a strong urge to snatch Lin Xun’s storage ring!

He couldn’t imagine how Lin Xun obtained those treasures. Could it be that he not only robbed the Chi Family but also burgled a treasury of an immortal family?

It was too unbelievable!

If the cultivators of the outside world knew that the third son of the high and mighty Fortune God Shi, the famous Third Young Master Shi Yi of Stone Cauldron Alms, was shaken by some treasures, what would they think?

In the end, Shi Yu refrained from asking about the origins of the treasures. Everyone had their secrets and he knew it would be inappropriate to ask.

Even the closest friends had a limit that mustn’t be touched.

Then again, no close friends would make such a mistake.

”Don’t stand there blankly. Give me some money for the first batch of loot. I need to hurry back and solve some matters.”

Lin Xun couldn’t stay any longer. He had a list of things waiting for him to handle in Mind Cleansing Peak.

“Oh, are you leaving like this?” Shi Yu asked in surprise. “These are your treasures. Are you not worried that I would take them for myself?”

“I believe you.” Lin Xun clapped Shi Yu’s shoulder with a smile.

“In front of such treasures, I might not be able to keep myself from falling into temptation.”

Lin Xun sighed. “If these treasures alone can make Third Young Master Shi Yu break his limit then you are too cheap. Of course, it could also indicate that I’m blind and became friends with a money-obsessed friend.”

“Get lost!” Shi Yu shouted with a smile.

He walked out of the hall with Lin Xun and ordered an attendant to bring over 64,000 gold coins to Lin Xun.

It was the money for the first batch of supplies.

As for the rare treasures that Lin Xun left behind, they would only know how much they sold for once auctioned.

Lin Xun wasn’t the least bit worried because he knew what kind of person Shi Yu was.

……

Lin Xun left in a hurry, while Shi Yu returned to the palace looking distracted.

It had only been a year or two since he had last seen Lin Xun but he realized that he had already changed so much that it was beyond his imagination. Not only had he become the successor to the Lin Family, but he had also acquired extraordinarily rare treasures that could make the world go crazy. It was too unbelievable.

What sort of thing had that guy encountered after Blood Kill Camp?

Shi Yu fell into contemplation.

Soon, the sound of footsteps snapped Shi Yu out of his deep thoughts and he saw the treasure appraisers emerge from the quiet room.

They had clearly reached an agreement as there was a glimmer of excitement in their eyes. However, they were shocked to learn that Lin Xun was no longer around.

“Third Young Master, where is your friend?” Elder Qiu asked anxiously. He thought that Lin Xun had lost his patience and had given up on the transaction.

“He left,” Shi Yu said casually.

“What?”

“He…he…left?”

“Could it be that he didn’t like our attitude and didn\'t want to do business with our Stone Cauldron Alms?”

The old men’s expressions changed dramatically like they had suffered the greatest blow.

Earthshaking wonders such as the nine twisted heart iron and clear void spirit flower had slipped away before their eyes. How could they not be irritated and upset?

Seeing them dismayed and dejected, Shi Yu couldn’t bear to strike them with another blow. “Who said he didn’t want to go ahead with the transaction?”

“Third Young Master, what did you say?” The old men’s spirits were immediately lifted and a faint glimmer of hope rekindled in their eyes.

“He has already handed the treasures to me and asked me to auction them on his behalf so you don’t need to worry about offering an acceptable price anymore,” Shi Yu said indifferently.

Auction!

Elder Qiu and the others were stunned at first, but they then beamed from ear to ear. As long as the two treasures were sold from Stone Cauldron Alms, it was enough. It didn’t matter whether it was through a direct sale or an auction.

“Everyone, don’t be too happy. I first need you guys to help me identify some treasures. Of course, my friend left them to be auctioned as well.”

Shi Yi’s sentence immediately drew their attention. There’s more treasure?

Their eyes sparkled with interest.

Then, Shi Yu brought out all sorts of treasures including the Azure Fiendish Dragon Wood, the Great White Meteorite Iron and the Tear-Stained Scarlet Shadow Grass!

“Heavens, is this real? The Great White Meteorite Iron! I...I thought I would never see one again in my life!”

”Pinch me now! Am I dreaming? It’s a Tear-Stained Scarlet Shadow Grass! It’s rare to find one even in the imperial treasury!”

“That…”

Seeing all sorts of astonishing treasures that could only be found by chance in the world appear one after another, the old men almost went crazy. Their eyes lit up, their lips quivered, and they screamed and yelled without any regard for manners.

Shi Yu didn’t laugh at them as he had also repeatedly lost his composure when he saw the treasures, so he understood their feelings.

“Third Young Master, you did well this time!” Elder Qiu exclaimed, unable to conceal his joy and excitement.

“Yes, with these treasures, we can host an auction of the highest standard and largest scale. Those treasures are enough to cause a huge sensation in the entire Forbidden City. They will greatly enhance the Stone Cauldron Alms’ reputation!”

“Congratulations Third Young Master! Congratulations Third Young Master!”

“Third Young Master, your friend is a lucky star. If we have the chance to see him again, we will definitely apologize to him!”

Hearing the elder’s excited cheers, Shi Yu couldn’t help but smile. Lin Xun had indeed helped him a lot this time!

He suddenly realized something. Lin Xun’s situation was extremely dangerous and he wondered whether he should do something for him.

Shi Yu drew a deep breath and said, “Everyone, this matter is very important, I’m going to see my father about it.”

The old men nodded. Indeed, Fortune God Shi had to be notified of the legendary treasures!

However, Shi Yu had a different thought about them. He wanted his father to use his intelligence to help Lin Xun.

He was incredibly cautious because he knew that Lin Xun was in an extremely complicated situation that involved many forces of the Forbidden City. If he didn’t act cautiously, he could bring a lot of trouble to Stone Cauldron Alms and also wouldn’t be able to help Lin Xun.

That wasn’t the result that Shi Yu wanted to see.

……

The kitchen of Flavor Shack

It was smoky and hot and heaps of junk were everywhere.

A thin, expressionless man was sitting on a wooden stool, sharpening a knife and making scraping noises.

On the other side was a huge, irregular wooden table and a perfectly roasted chunk of barbecued beef dripping with oil.

A large, fat, middle-aged man in a thin, buttoned jacket was brandishing a razor-sharp blade, slicing the crispy but tender beef.

Shink!

His meat slicing was extremely swift, but his eating speed was even more astonishing. His mouth was huge like a bottomless pit. After around ten breaths, the wooden table was left with only an extremely clean carcass.

The middle-aged man licked his lips, set down the blade in his hand, and exclaimed, “I have to say that I have eaten across the entire empire, but Third Old Zhu, your barbecue beef is still the best.”

“There are not many of these snowhoof demon ox left. The situation in the Darkness Kingdom has been very tense in recent years, and there is a high possibility of war breaking out. If you want to continue eating them, you better send someone to the Darkness Kingdom to hunt some before the war starts,” the thin middle-aged man said emotionlessly as he sharpened the knife. He looked very cold like he was devoid of emotions.

“Don’t worry, it’s still too early for war. It will be at least another three or five years before it happens.”

The fat, middle-aged man took out a snow-white towel, wiped his mouth, leaned back lazily on the chair and sighed comfortably, “Third Old Zhu, it’s a waste if you hide here every day. Do you plan to spend your whole life here?”

“You don’t need to care about my affairs and I won\'t bother you about yours,” Old Zhu grumbled. His palms and fingers were thick and rough, and the veins on the back of his hands were prominent like earthworms. But he sharpened the blade with a very gentle force like a silkworm spinning silk.

The fat, middle-aged man smiled and didn’t say anything else.

At that moment, a handsome and graceful young man in white rushed in urgently and sat opposite the fat middle-aged man. He grinned. “Father, you hid so well. I’ve been looking for you.”

Naturally, the white-robed youngster was Shi Yu.

Of course, the large and fat, middle-aged man was Fortune God Shi, the head of Stone Cauldron Alms, a renowned figure in the empire.

If one hadn’t seen it with one’s own eyes, it would be hard to imagine that the renowned Fortune God Shi of the empire would be hiding and eating in a smoky and scorching kitchen.

“Quickly state what the matter is.” Fortune God Shi shot a glance at Shi Yu.

Shi Yu stated directly, “My friend has some trouble, so I want to ask you for advice.”

Fortune God Shi nodded and muttered, “It must be a big issue. Otherwise, you would have taken action already and wouldn’t ask me. Tell me, what’s the problem?”

Shi Yu immediately recounted Lin Xun’s situation.

After listening, Fortune God Shi was still leaning back on the chair, but a strange look was swirling in his eyes.

“That’s really big trouble. I’m afraid I can’t help him.”

Shi Yu was taken aback at first and then he gritted his teeth and said, “Father, if you don’t help him, I will have to take action myself. Don’t blame me if Stone Cauldron Alms is dragged into it!”

Fortune God Shi snapped, “Brat, are you threatening me!? So ridiculous!”

Shi Yu refused to budge. “I have no other choice. I can’t watch my friend fall into an abyss and not do anything.”

Fortune God Shi burst into hearty laughter and turned his head to look at Third Old Zhu. “Look, this is my son. To save his friend, he won\'t even listen to me.”

Third Old Zhu said expressionlessly, “Your son is stronger than you.”

Fortune God Shi was stunned at first but then he suddenly grinned. “I won’t help because there is someone more suitable than me to help.”

“Who?”

Shi Yu perked up.

Fortune God Shi cast a glance at the nearby Third Old Zhu.
