Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation

Chapter 1597 (Raw 1579): Touch My Reverse Scale? Die!

Xiao Chen calmed himself while keeping his expression even. Then, he said, “Senior, experts truly hide themselves well. I have long heard that there are many experts in Purple Sun City. Indeed, that is true.”

The stall owner appeared somewhat excited. He smiled and said, “An expert? That’s not really so. I have a question: does Young Master have the Alchemic Recipe for the Heavenly Yang Pill?”

Xiao Chen nodded and said, “That’s right. I have the Alchemic Recipe. Does Senior have any advice?”

“Great. If you lend me the Alchemic Recipe to take a look, I can help you obtain all of the supplementary herbs here. Furthermore, I can also connect you to channels to purchase one-thousand-year-old Baleful Yang Energy and give you Spirit Jades,” the white-haired old man said in a rush, appearing exceptionally excited.

Being so anxious in negotiations was clearly wrong. By exposing one’s bottom line too early, one could end up cheated by black-hearted people.

Based on the appearance of this white-haired old man, he was not a rash person. It could only be said that he wanted the Alchemic Recipe for the Heavenly Yang Pill too much.

Xiao Chen did not overthink and let the other party’s offer overwhelm him. He said calmly, “I do not lack Spirit Jades. I can let old sir take a look at the Alchemic Recipe. I only ask Senior for a favor. If you can do that, I’m willing to give the Alchemic Recipe to Senior and agree to a favor of Senior’s.”

“What favor? Please speak.”

Xiao Chen pointed at Luo Nan and said, “Senior, please take the pulse of my friend here.”

Alchemists were not doctors. However, most Alchemists knew some medical skills. The white-haired old man stepped forward and checked. Then, he frowned.

“How vicious! This is an injury that should be fatal in the first place. However, a Holy Pill—probably the Blood Cloud Pill, a peak Holy Pill—forcefully suppressed it.

“However, the effects of this medicine can last for only another seven days at most. Seven days later, your friend will...”

When Fei`er heard this, her expression immediately changed drastically. She said in a rush, “Senior, you must save my senior brother.”

Luo Nan’s expression, on the other hand, did not change. His experiences during this period allowed him to look past life and death.

However, when Luo Nan saw Fei`er sad, he also felt a pang in his heart.

Xiao Chen stretched out his hand and stopped Fei`er. “Let Senior finish first.”

The white-haired old man continued, “If you had a Medicinal Pill that could reconstruct the dantian, the effects of the Blood Cloud Pill would be fully expressed, and his life would no longer be in danger.”

The white-haired old man released Luo Nan’s hand and looked at Xiao Chen. Then, he said, “I know how to help you. I recall that my friend has an Alchemic Recipe for a Medicinal Pill for reconstructing the dantian. Let’s meet here again three days later. I’ll provide what you need.”

The moment the old man said that, the four all revealed some joy on their faces. This trip to Purple Sun City was worth it.

“Alright, it’s settled, then. Three days later, I’ll bring the Heavenly Yang Pill’s Alchemic Recipe as arranged.”

The white-haired old man squinted slightly at Xiao Chen. Then, he said sincerely, “I have not seen such an impressive youth like you for so long already. You do not harp on the small details or covet small benefits. The rarer thing is that you are loyal to your friends.

“This old man’s family name is Liu. In Purple Sun City, people know me as Senior Liu. I dabble in alchemy. Might I ask for little friend’s great name? If we have a chance in the future, we can chat more.”

By providing his family name, this old man intended to befriend Xiao Chen. There was no fear in having many friends outside.

Xiao Chen replied, “My name is Xiao Chen, Xiao with the “grass” head and Chen with the “sun” head. If there is an opportunity, I will definitely chat with Senior Liu.”

[TL Note: Xiao with the “grass” head and Chen with the “sun” head: As explained before, this is a description of how the characters of Xiao Chen’s name are written.]

“Hahaha! There will definitely be opportunities. Don’t waste the VIP invitation I gave you. This is the Purple Cloud Pavilion’s annual auction, something considered a grand occasion.”

Senior Liu was in a good mood. After laughing, he packed up his stall and left.

After dealing with Luo Nan’s issue, Xiao Chen was feeling rather buoyant as he looked at the VIP invitation in his hand.

He said in high spirits, “Xiao Suo, you know where this Purple Cloud Pavilion is, right?”

“Of course, I do. After all, I’ve gone there three times before.”

“Lead the way, then. Your performance today is pretty good. Pick something that catches your interest later. I’ll bid on it for you.”

Without Xiao Suo’s reminder, Xiao Chen would not have noticed this hidden expert. Helping Xiao Suo to bid for an item was very worth it.

“Haha! Big Brother, it’s as though you are my real brother! It is settled, then. Don’t ever regret it!”

Xiao Suo nearly jumped in joy, feeling incredibly excited.

The Purple Cloud Pavilion’s annual auction would last two days. Each day, they would auction only twenty treasures, all of them carefully selected and extremely valuable.

Most people could only come and watch, as many people came, and every auction item sold for sky-high prices.

Even after Xiao Chen came to understand that, he did not regret his words. Instead, his interest grew.

Xiao Chen was carrying two million Spirit Jades and was not lacking at all. If he changed them to Inferior Grade Spirit Jades, he would have more than two hundred million.

The old Dragon Horse had spoken very humbly. However, Xiao Chen now discovered that he was definitely rich, at the very least, in the Purple Sun Region.

The Purple Cloud Pavilion was one of Purple Sun City’s three large trading halls. They occupied an area over five kilometers wide, looking very grand.

Purple Sun City possessed exceedingly deep accumulations. Long ago, it was a mecca for the Golden Crow Race. In regard to accumulations, this city was far superior to any sect in the Purple Sun Region.

Occasionally, strange treasures would appear. No one considered this unusual.

The people who obtained these strange treasures would mostly choose to remain anonymous and let the trading halls handle the sales. The large-scale trading halls had good reputations and were reliable; they were the first choice for many people.

The Purple Cloud Pavilion was one such large-scale trading hall.

Naturally, the Purple Cloud Pavilion’s annual large-scale auction was considered a grand event. The Ice-Snow Sword, Luo Feng, came here because of it.

Soon, Xiao Suo led the group to the gates of the Purple Cloud Pavilion.

Suddenly, a fiery and berserk aura came from behind. The cultivators in front scattered, the place immediately turning chaotic.

“What a tyrannical aura! It is the Burning Moon Sect’s strongest new talent!”

Exclamations came from the crowd. Many looked behind and saw a group of people walking over.

The leader exuded a berserk aura from his entire body, fiery, sharp, and arrogant.

This was Yan Xin, the strongest new talent of the Burning Moon Sect—one of the three Rank 2 sects in the Purple Sun Great Realm.

Xiao Chen looked in the direction that the crowd was pointing. When he saw Yan Xin, he was slightly stunned.

This person and the Ice-Snow Sword were like two extremes. However, they had one thing in common: they were both wildly proud and arrogant.

After thinking about this, Xiao Chen concluded that this definitely had something to do with their respective Rank 2 sects holding an overlord-like position in the Purple Sun Region.

Furthermore, Yan Xin was strong in the first place, and the sect behind him was strong. Who would dare to offend him?

As Yan Xin’s group walked over, the people parted to open a path for him. Soon, Yan Xin’s group arrived by Xiao Chen’s four.

All the onlookers stared. The crowd was stunned. To think that these people did not make way for Yan Xin.

Yan Xin frowned, and a berserk fiery aura pressed towards Xiao Chen’s group of four.

The air immediately turned parched and overbearing.

Without Xiao Chen needed to do anything, Xiao Suo spread out his own aura and scattered that fiery aura.

“A Venerate?”

Yan Xin contemplated for a moment before saying coldly, “Do you think that a Venerate can block the path that I, Yan Xin, wish to take?”

After dealing with Luo Nan’s matter, Xiao Chen could not care too much now. However, he did not wish to cause a commotion, either.

Xiao Chen patted Xiao Suo’s shoulder and moved to the side, taking the initiative to make way.

“Humph!”

Yan Xin snorted coldly and led his juniors over. The people who walked behind him all showed cocky expressions. In this Purple Sun City, these Burning Moon Sect disciples did not have to fear anyone.

“Miss, you look quite pretty.”

Just as one of the Burning Moon Sect disciples was about to walk past Fei`er, he stretched out his hand to touch her face.

This startled Fei`er, causing her expression to change markedly. Luo Nan also felt incredibly angered.

“Ah!”

However, before these two could do anything, they heard a cry of agony. Xiao Chen had torn off the arm of the person who had stretched out a hand.

Then, Xiao Chen casually tossed that arm into the air. “Bang!” The arm exploded in a splash of blood.

With this, there was no hope whatsoever of reconnecting that arm.

“How dare you hurt my junior brother?!” Yan Xin spun around, incredibly enraged.

Xiao Chen said indifferently, “These past years, I have seen too much death and become much more mild-tempered. However, there are some reverse scales that should not be touched. If they are touched, then don’t blame me for being ruthless.”

“Senior Brother, you have to get justice for me. This person broke off my arm for no reason at all.” That person with the torn-off arm showed a pained expression, making a complaint first.

For no reason at all?

Xiao Chen smiled coldly. “Are the people of the Burning Moon Sect all this shameless?”

“You! How dare you say that I am shameless?! If not for you sneak-attacking me, with my strength, how could you have broken off my arm? To think that you are so narrow-minded, dissatisfied at giving way to Senior Brother Yan Xin, so you vented your temper on me—”

“Are you very strong?”

Xiao Chen suddenly interrupted the other party’s justifications. That person still had things to say when he met Xiao Chen’s gaze. Then, he suddenly felt fear flood his entire body.

Xiao Chen unleashed a sharp saber aura and extended his hand, sending a powerful saber intent into the other party’s body.

The other party trembled as he looked at Xiao Chen in extreme horror. Then, blood leaked out of his mouth without pause.

“You...”

Before that person could finish, many strands of saber light shot out of that person’s body, opening countless bloody holes, and blood spurted out as he collapsed.

That person fell flat on the ground, dead with his eyes open.

Had that person known before, he would not have suggested that Xiao Chen was not comparable to him.

The faces of the people around froze as they looked at Xiao Chen. How bold of him to kill a Burning Moon Sect disciple before Yan Xin!

What strength to kill a Burning Moon Sect disciple before Yan Xin, so quickly that Yan Xin actually did not even have a chance to save him!

“When I want to hurt people, I will not do it in a sneaky fashion. If I want to kill, all the more I won’t do that!” Xiao Chen said indifferently. He did not like speaking nonsense. Most of the time, he preferred to let his actions do the talking.
