Instead of going straight to the auction house, Ning Xiaochuan headed to Jinpeng Heart-nourishing Hall first as he planned to collect his monthly allowance.
āNing Xiaochuan!ā
A feminine voice came from behind. The voice was clear and melodious.
Ning Xiaochuan turned around and saw a girl in green attire standing not far away from him. There was a green golden hair clasp inserted through her hair and ornaments around her waist. She was petite and her skin was tender white. Her eyes were especially round and her gaze was incredibly seductive.
She stood underneath the cassia-bark tree as the autumn leaves gilded about everywhere, carrying an elitist and elegant vibe on her.
Ning Xiaochuan gave her a strange look before he smiled. āAttendant Yu, long time no see.ā
Ning Xiaochuan did not know Yu Qianqianās true identity and believed that she was working for Jinpeng Heart-nourishing Hall.
Yu Qianqian smiled sweetly. āI went to Marquis Jiangeās Residence to look for you a few days ago but the guards told me that you no longer live there. Whatās up with that?ā
As the favorite daughter of a Nobleās family, she knew what it meant when the descendant of a Marquis no longer lived in the residence. It meant that he had permanently lost the right to be the successor of the family and was abandoned by the people in Marquisā Residence.
She was incredibly curious. For someone as incredible as Ning Xiaochuan, Marquis Jiangeās Residence should be nurturing him as much as possible. Why would he be abandoned?
If Marquis Jiange was truly trying to hide his talent from the public by announcing that his descendant was ill from birth, there was not really a need to send him out of the residence. It simply did not make sense.
Ning Xiaochuanās expression changed gradually. āYou didnāt tell anyone in Marquis Jiangeās Residence that Iāve become a Heart-nourishing Master, right?ā
Yu Qianqian said, āI didnāt tell anybody. I left the moment I heard that youāre no longer in Marquis Jiangeās Residence,I didnāt tell them why I was there for you. Oh right, where are you staying now? Iāll send someone to personally send your monthly allowance to you.ā
Ning Xiaochuan let out a sigh of relief as he headed towards Jinpeng Heart-nourishing Hall with Yu Qianqian. He laughed. āBegonia Manor located at the Southern Mountain Cluster.ā
āIāll definitely visit you to learn the arts and knowledge of Heart-nourishing Techniques when I have the time.ā
Yu Qianqian brought Ning Xiaochuan to collect his monthly allowance. Along the way, everyone was extremely respectful towards her and many female servants would kneel down when they saw her from afar.
Ning Xiaochuan picked up the small box filled with his monthly allowance and opened it. āWhy is there so much money in it? Isnāt the monthly allowance only five hundred copper coins for a Junior Heart-nourishing Master?ā
The box contained fifty silver plates, which was equivalent to five million copper coins. This was ten times the amount a Junior Heart-nourishing Master should be getting as monthly allowance.
Yu Qianqian smirked. āThis is Hallmasterās doing. He said that Mister Ning has the potential to become a Mid-level Heart-nourishing Master and is unusually talented. Hence, itās only natural that youāre getting a Mid-level Heart-nourishing Masterās monthly allowance. Jinpeng Heart-nourishing Hall values people with potential and will not hold back when supporting them.ā
Ning Xiaochuan closed the box up and said, āThank you, Hallmaster.ā
Since Ning Xiaochuan needed some cash on hand, he accepted it without any hesitation.
It was just as Murong Wushuang said, generous people were all b*stards.
Now that Ning Xiaochuan had an additional five million copper coins, he was more confident in obtaining a mid-grade Pill.
Yu Qianqian instantly recommended him to Jingpeng Auction House when she found out Ning Xiaochuan was planning to buy a mid-grade Pill.
It was a business fully owned by Jinpeng. All mid-grade Pills created by Jinpeng Heart-nourishing Hallās Heart-nourishing Masters would be sent to Jinpeng Auction House so that they could be sold.
As Yu Qianqian and Ning Xiaochuan were about to head to Jinpeng Auction House, a hostile voice could be heard from the entrance. āThe infamous Jinpeng Heart-nourishing Hall is selling fake Mystical Medicine? Youāve sullied the name of the Three Great Heart-nourishing Halls. Shouldnāt your Hallmaster personally explain this?ā
Yu Qianqianās expression sank as he hastened his steps while he went out. HE stood by the staircase and stared at the troublemaking bunch and said coldly, āWhat happened here?ā
Jinpeng Heart-nourishing Hallās sixth Attendant came to welcome Yu Qianqian and greeted her respectfully. āItās Madam Yinchi. She claims to have bought fake medicine from Jinpeng Hall-nourishing Hall.ā
Yu Qianqian frowned. āHow is it possible for Jinpeng Hall-nourishing Hall to be selling fake Mystical Medicine? Thatās not right. Madam Yinchi is a Mid-level Heart-nourishing Master from Empire Heart-nourishing Hall. Why would she buy Mystical Medicine from Jinpeng Heart-nourishing Hall instead of Empire Heart-nourishing Hall? Clearly sheās here to find fault with us.ā
The sixth Attendant replied, āI, too, believe that this is Madam Yinchiās doing, but I canāt find any loose ends in her ploy. A genuine Grade Four Bloodstone Mystical Herb. The medicinal Qi in it vanished and it became a normal Stoneherb instantly. This has never happened before! Strange! Extremely strange!ā
Ning Xiaochuan stood not far away as he looked at the sixth Attendant and Yu Qianqian.
Ning Xiaochuan had visited Jinpeng Heart-nourishing Hall a few times, itās only natural that he knew of the sixth Attendantās position and authority in Jinpeng Heart-nourishing Hall. Ning Xiaochuan started doubting Yu Qianqianās identity since the sixth Attendant had bowed down to such a young girl.
At the same time, Ning Xiaochuan looked at the commotion just below the staircase as well.
There was a luxurious carriage parked there. Its size was humongous, similar to a miniature palace installed on the carriage. It did not seem to have any trouble fitting in ten people.
There were many Nobles in the Imperial City. All the rich families gathered here and there were many hidden powerhouses.
Powerful people had their own carriages and they loved decorating them. As the Nobles competed against each other, the carriages became bigger and bigger. In fact, some of Nobleās carriages were like a palace and it needed a hundred and eight martial artists to carry it.
This carriage right in front of his eyes was incredibly startling. It was pulled by eighteen Grade One Mystical Beasts. Furthermore, each one was a completely different Mystical Beast and yet every single one had pure white fur.
Anyone could tell that the master of this carriage was no ordinary man.
Ning Xiaochuan looked at the woman beside the carriage. She was a dowager and she was dressed in luxurious clothing made from Magnetite and valuable cloth. Her waist was covered in green cloth and no part of her body did not hint that she was rich and beautiful.
She was Madam Yinchi.
Madam Yinchi was the wife of the late Marquis Qitian. She was one of the most beautiful women in Imperial City ten years ago. Her beauty was so unrivaled that her name was known by everyone. Many people were trying to get their hands on her.
However, nobody had expected that she would marry the dying Marquis Qitian. She had even given birth to a daughter and son for him.
Before Marquis Qitian died ten years ago, he had passed the Marquis title to Madam Yinchi and her son.
The young Marquis Qitian was only two years old back then.
Since Marquis Qitianās Residenceās master was only twelve years old, everyone knew that the one overseeing Marquis Qitianās Residence was Madam Yinchi.
Despite Madam Yinchi having given birth to a son and daughter, she managed to keep her seductive body. Her eyes were bright and her teeth, white. Her hair was long and black, her lips were incredibly seductive and her chest was well packed. She looked just like an incredibly wealthy woman in her early twenties.
Furthermore, she was much more elegant, beautiful and seductive than the women from rich families. She was someone that would make every manās heart racing.
Beside Madam Yinchi was a youngster, about seventeen or eighteen years old. He was incredibly handsome. His skin was fair and he looked extremely energetic. One could even sense some form of heroic spirit in his gaze.
A hint of admiration could be seen from Madam Yinchiās gaze when she looked at him. Anyone observant enough could tell that the relationship between this youngster and Madam Yinchi was more than what it met the eyes.
Madam Yinchiās body was incredibly seductive. Paired with her snow-white skin, she carried an incredibly seductive vibe and the martial artists around her could not hide their lust towards her. In fact, many people did not even dare to look her in the eyes.
āQuanquan, Jinpeng Heart-nourishing Hall is still one of the Three Great Heart-nourishing Halls in the Yulan Empire. Itās simply not good for Jinpeng Heart-nourishing Hallās reputation if you were to sell fake Mystical Medicine!ā Madam Yinchi smiled. Her eyes curled up into two crescent moons just like a young woman.
There were many martial artists surrounding the place and the majority of them were regulars of Jinpeng Heart-nourishing Hall.
Selling fake medicine was a huge blow to a Heart-nourishing Hallās reputation. As one spread to ten and ten spread to a hundred, nobody would dare to buy medicine from Jinpeng Heart-nourishing Hall if its reputation was destroyed. Who would dare to sell their Mystical Medicine to Jinpeng Heart-nourishing Hall?
Furthermore, there was a large crowd watching. If this issue were to be settled inappropriately, Jinpeng Heart-nourishing Hall would be crushed by the other two Heart-nourishing Hall and it would never be able to regain its glory again.
āJinpeng Heart-nourishing Hall has to give an explanation. This is the Headquarter Hall. if they were to sell fake medicine here, then the other hall branches will be in great trouble.ā
āIām really suspicious about Jinpeng Heart-nourishing Hall and their Heart-nourishing Mastersā standards. How can they not know that they received fake Mystical Medicine? It seems like we can no longer buy any Mystical Liquid and Mystical Pills from Jinpeng Heart-nourishing Hall.ā
āIāve cultivated my Heart-nourishing Cauldron recently and have decided to rely on Jinpeng Heart-nourishing Hall. It looks like I need to reconsider thisā
ā¦
A seductive smile could be seen on Madam Yinchiās beautiful face as she listened to the bystandersā discussion.
She came prepared, which was the reason why the sixth Attendant felt that this issue was very tricky even though he was incredibly experienced.
Yu Qianqian frowned heavily as she did not like this Madam Yinchi at all. āCan you bring over the fake Mystical Medicine for me to have a look?ā
Madam Yinchi seemed rather generous as she gently gestured with her hand. āXiao Li, please hand over the Grade Four Bloodstone Mystical Herb to Princess Quanquan. Ah no, it should be that useless Stoneherb.ā

The handsome youngster who had been standing beside Madam Yinchi had hints of mockery in his smirk as he handed over the box containing the Mystical Herb to Yu Qianqian.
