After giving the order, the leading Disciple immediately followed in the direction Qin Xuan had departed.
The others scattered and began to act.
As if he hadn't noticed, Qin Xuan left the Main Peak directly and headed towards the Azure Green Sect's mountain range.
The Azure Green Sect and Xuanlong City were over eight hundred miles apart, and it would take an ordinary Profound Earth Cultivator a full day and night to reach it.
However, after leaving the Outer Sect area, Qin Xuan plunged into the mountain range, which greatly puzzled the Inner Sect Disciple following behind him.
But not long after, seeing Qin Xuan catch a Spirit Beast in the mountains and force it to carry him forward, the Inner Sect Disciple suddenly understood.
"Using a Spirit Beast for travel is indeed much faster than heading directly to Xuanlong City."
After all, many Spirit Beasts are best at long-distance travel.
Secretly following behind Qin Xuan, the Inner Sect Disciple also thought of catching a Spirit Beast to keep up with Qin Xuan.
Just as he was searching for a suitable Spirit Beast, Qin Xuan, whom he had been following all along, suddenly disappeared from his sight, which immediately made him turn pale with fright.
"Where did he go?"
The Inner Sect Disciple searched frantically.
Before setting off, he had already instructed those Disciples to find him using their positioning Jade Slip.
But if those few people really came looking, and he had lost track of Qin Xuan, it would be troublesome.
"Are you looking for me?"
Just then, a calm voice came from behind him.
Hearing this voice, the Inner Sect Disciple quickly turned his head, only to see that Qin Xuan had somehow circled around behind him.
Looking at the Disciple's astonished expression, Qin Xuan smiled slightly and nodded at him.
"You've worked hard all this way. It must have been tiring following me out of the Sect, right?"
Hearing Qin Xuan's calm words, the Disciple was instantly terrified and ran away.
"Look at you, you're so impolite. I kindly reminded you, yet you ran off without even looking back. How outrageous!"
Qin Xuan kept shaking his head.
"Since there's a path to Heaven but you don't take it, and no gate to Hell but you come knocking, then today I shall send you to eternal rest!"
Before Qin Xuan finished speaking, he lightly tapped his toes and instantly shot out.
Although he had only grasped the superficial knowledge of the Yu Dao Secret Method, this slight bit of knowledge allowed his speed to completely overwhelm his opponent.
Almost instantly, Qin Xuan appeared in front of the other party again, and while smiling at him, the Wu Feng Sword in Qin Xuan's hand had already smashed down.
"No!"
The man screamed in terror, but it was completely too late now.
The heavy sword instantly blew his head off.
"Phew!"
After killing this person, Qin Xuan smoothly threw him into the Refining God Cauldron.
Every time Qin Xuan used the Refining God Cauldron, he would throw Han Ye's spiritual body into a Jade Slip.
"Idiot, do you really think the Zhao Family can cover the sky with one hand? Since you dared to follow me, I will make you pay the price!"
Looking at the tracking Jade Slip found on the man, Qin Xuan wrote the character 'death' on the ground, then threw the tracking Jade Slip on the ground and turned to leave.
This was the final warning to the Zhao Family!
If the Zhao Family still dared to come and offer their heads without knowing their limits, he wouldn't mind letting the Zhao Family know what it meant to be out of their depth!
"Go!"
Qin Xuan jumped onto the back of a nearby Spirit Beast, then rode the beast towards Xuanlong City.
A few hours later, when Zhao Zheng arrived in the mountain range with over a dozen people, he only saw the Jade Slip on the ground.
"Zhao Senior Brother, there are signs of a struggle, but no corpse. It seems Qin Xuan destroyed the body to leave no evidence."
"But if he destroyed the body, why would he leave the Jade Slip?"
One of Zhao Zheng's followers said.
Hearing this, Zhao Zheng's expression became extremely ugly, and he clenched his fists tightly.
"Idiot, he's establishing his authority, using this Jade Slip to warn me!"
Zhao Zheng looked at the Jade Slip in front of him with anger. Qin Xuan's actions were a blatant provocation, and he absolutely could not tolerate it!
"He's just from a branch family of the Qin Family, yet he dares to harm a Disciple of my clan. This is tolerable, but what is intolerable?"
"So what should we do next?"
Several of Zhao Zheng's followers looked at each other, then all looked at Zhao Zheng, wanting to ask him about their next move.
"Keep an eye on this area. He left the Sect, so he'll have to come back, right? When he returns, I have plenty of ways to deal with him!"
"You just need to report his situation to me then!"
After giving the orders, Zhao Zheng looked beyond the mountain range, clenching his fists.
Meanwhile, Qin Xuan on the other side had already ridden his Spirit Beast out of the mountain range and was heading towards Xuanlong City.
A few hours later, the Spirit Beast carried Qin Xuan to the outskirts of Xuanlong City.
He had just been here a few days ago, and he still remembered how the guard captain responsible for guarding the city gate was directly killed by Gu Xuantong.
At that time, the Xuanlong City Lord even came forward to apologize.
It seemed that the Xuanlong City Lord, Yuan Qing, had indeed come forward to apologize.
A Shangqing Realm expert was submissive in front of Gu Xuantong.
"The White Tiger Family is indeed powerful. I just don't know how deep this family's Foundation truly is."
Qin Xuan stroked his chin in thought.
But soon he shook his head.
Gu Xuantong was merely a collateral branch of the White Tiger Family.
The most urgent matter at hand was to deal with these fire crystal stones.
For those without spiritual fire, these fire crystal stones, which contain a large amount of fire attribute, are most suitable for refining Medicinal Pills.
Therefore, these fire crystal stones can often be sold at a high price.
"However, over a thousand fire crystal stones cannot just be sold casually; I must exchange them at several different places."
"Otherwise, it will definitely attract attention."
Thinking of this, Qin Xuan already had a plan in mind.
Finding a restaurant, Qin Xuan ordered some dishes and then tossed a Spirit Stone to the waiter serving him.
There were many Cultivators in Xuanlong City, so although Mortals also traded with copper coins and gold and silver, they also accepted Spirit Stones.
In fact, Spirit Stones were even more popular.
"Waiter, tell me, which families in Xuanlong City have the biggest businesses?"
Clever waiters like him were usually well-informed and naturally knew a lot about the situation in Xuanlong City.
"Alright, in our Xuanlong City, when it comes to the biggest businesses, it's definitely the 'One Pavilion, One Building, Four Courtyards' – these six establishments. Besides these six, there are also twelve other shops that deal in Medicinal Pills, Talismans, Formations, and so on."
One Pavilion, One Building, Four Courtyards?
Qin Xuan raised an eyebrow.
"This 'One Building' is our Xuanlong City's Building Outside the Building. They deal in Talismans, Formations, Medicinal Pills, Spirit Stones, and more. More importantly, this Building Outside the Building has some connection to the city's Lord, so it can be considered a royal industry."
A royal industry in Xuanlong City? To be able to grow so large, it must have something special.
"However, the most distinctive feature of Building Outside the Building is their Profound Dragon Auction House. That's the largest auction house in the entire Xuanlong City, capable of accommodating thousands of people each time!"
"And this 'One Pavilion' is the Tianji Pavilion! I'm sure Young Master, you've heard of the great name of Tianji Pavilion!"
Tianji Pavilion!
Of course Qin Xuan had heard of it!
Tianji Pavilion was more than just famous; it was incredibly famous!
This was a commercial Alliance that spanned the entire continent!
The entire Tianji Pavilion had twelve White-Robed Chief Envoys, with the Chief Envoys stationed at the Central Continent headquarters.
In the other four directions of the continent, there were four major branch pavilions, with Black-Robed Chief Envoys in charge of each branch pavilion.
More branch pavilions were set up under the East Region's branch pavilion.
It could be said that the Tianji Pavilion's influence spread across the entire continent. Besides the Alchemist Guild, which was known as the continent's number one power, and the Tianji Pavilion, no other power could spread its entire influence across the entire continent.
Trading with such a power was indeed much more reassuring.
