Dethroned from the Imperial Throne, Why Are You So Anxious When I Don't Want It Anymore? - Chapter 27
Chapter 27: Thirty Million Spirit Stones
Seeing Ye Yu’s purple gold token, several guards’ expressions immediately changed. They bowed to Ye Yu and said, “Mr. Ye, please come in. ”
“What are you doing? Can’t you understand me? I said, get him out! ” Ye Qingxuan paused, then said angrily.
One of the guards, seeing Ye Qingxuan’s behavior, frowned and said, “Second Princess, don’t make a fuss. While the Great Yan Imperial Family is indeed our cooperation partner, that doesn’t mean you can make things difficult for an Elder of Lingyun Pavilion. ”
After speaking, Ye Qingxuan pointed at Ye Yu in disbelief and said, “You mean, this good-for-nothing is your Lingyun Pavilion Elder?!”
“Watch your words! ” The guard’s face turned cold, and the other guards behind him also surrounded them, looking coldly at Ye Qingxuan.
Ye Qingxuan and the other immediately shut their mouths, glaring fiercely at Ye Yu.
In Qingzhou, the Great Yan Dynasty might have immense prestige, after all, the title of strongest empire isn’t just talk.
But when facing Lingyun Pavilion, a chamber of commerce that spans the Three States, the Great Yan Dynasty’s prestige isn’t enough.
For minor matters, Lingyun Pavilion might give some face, but if it’s about a Lingyun Pavilion Elder, it’s a completely different story.
Feeling the hostile gazes of the two, Ye Yu didn’t bother explaining and turned to enter the venue.
Back then, the Great Yan Dynasty had just ended its internal strife, and its people’s livelihood and economy were on the brink of collapse.
Lingyun Pavilion initially didn’t look favorably upon such a Great Yan Dynasty. Only because Ye Yu and Elder Ziyun of Lingyun Pavilion shared a past connection, and Elder Ziyun gave him an Elder’s Token,
did Lingyun Pavilion agree to cooperate deeply with the Great Yan Dynasty, raising the overall economy of Great Yan to a higher level.
“Damn it! Fine, I’ll see what you can buy today! ” Ye Qingxuan gritted her teeth and followed Ye Yu inside.
Seeing them leave, the guard captain hurried upstairs to inform the manager of this branch.
The venue in the Great Qin Capital is not as good as the one in Great Yan.
After agreeing to a deep cooperation with Great Yan, Lingyun Pavilion placed its Qingzhou headquarters in the Great Yan Imperial City, holding an auction every month.
This attracted countless experts from Qingzhou every month.
Consequently, the fame of the Great Yan Imperial City increased steadily, followed by various commercial transactions.
Ye Yu walked around the venue. This time, he came to buy some medicinal herbs to refine the Po Zhang Dan.
The Barren Wasteland Secret Realm, which they would be going to in a few days, is surrounded by thick miasma. Ordinary Golden Core Stage cultivators would lose their way upon entering, and they might even be poisoned.
Ye Yu was naturally unafraid. No matter how powerful the miasma was, it was nothing compared to the Nine Nether Bl00d Qi, but Qin Ruoxian was different. Being prepared is always better.
Soon, Ye Yu arrived at a counter. He glanced at the Purple Zenith Fruit and wanted to buy it, but when he patted his pocket, he froze.
He forgot to bring the Spirit Stones Qin Wushuang had given him.
“Um, excuse me, can I put this on credit? I’ll send someone to deliver the payment later. ” Ye Yu scratched his nose, asking somewhat awkwardly.
The clerk looked Ye Yu up and down and then said, “No, if you need… ”
Before he could finish, a scoff came from behind, and Ye Qingxuan said, “I thought you’d get something good here in Great Qin, but you can’t even afford a few thousand Spirit Stones. ”
“How about this? Great Yan is still better, right? Come back with me, I’ll treat your injuries, and all the Spirit Stones in this bag are yours! ”
After speaking, Ye Qingxuan shook the Universe Bag in her hand.
Ye Qingxuan had always known that Ye Yu was greedy for money, but she didn’t expect him to be in such dire straits. Otherwise, she would have used Spirit Stones to get him to go back long ago.
Ye Yu gave her a speechless glance and said impatiently, “Why haven’t you left yet? ”
“This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Let me tell you, there are at least one hundred thousand Spirit Stones in this Universe Bag! ” Ye Qingxuan suppressed her anger and tempted him.
During Ye Yu’s time as Crown Prince, he would pursue even a single missing Spirit Stone from the national treasury. In Ye Qingxuan’s eyes, this proved that Ye Yu was greedy, petty, and lacked character.
The Great Yan national treasury contained millions, if not tens of millions of Spirit Stones.
Yet, once, Ye Yu even dismissed three high-ranking officials over a single Spirit Stone.
Before Ye Yu could speak, the clerk couldn’t stand it anymore and coldly said, “Madam, one hundred thousand Spirit Stones isn’t much. This gentleman possesses an Elder’s Token from Lingyun Pavilion. He can freely use items worth under thirty million Spirit Stones. ”
“My refusal earlier wasn’t because the gentleman wanted to put it on credit, but because this gentleman doesn’t need to! ”
After these words, the surrounding people gasped in amazement.
Lingyun Pavilion is truly wealthy and powerful. Freely using items worth thirty million Spirit Stones?
Everyone looked at Ye Yu enviously. All the items in this Lingyun Pavilion branch in Great Qin Capital wouldn’t exceed thirty million Spirit Stones.
Doesn’t this mean Ye Yu could simply empty the place?
Ye Yu himself was secretly surprised. He didn’t expect that the token given to him by Elder Ziyun had such a function.
Ye Qingxuan and the other’s faces turned as black as the bottom of a pot. Although the Great Yan Dynasty was currently strong and its treasury was full, its annual revenue was only eight million Spirit Stones, and it was still declining.
Yet Ye Yu could freely use thirty million Spirit Stones, more than ten times what they both had combined.
“In that case, prepare two copies of everything on this list. As for the Spirit Stones, I’ll send someone to deliver them later. ” After saying this, Ye Yu took out a list and handed it to the clerk.
The clerk quickly took it and diligently went to get the items.
Soon, the items were gathered, and Ye Yu turned to leave Lingyun Pavilion. But Ye Qingxuan and the other persistently followed him until Ye Yu entered the Imperial Palace, at which point they finally gave up.
“Second Sister, what do we do? ” Ye Qingshuang asked, watching Ye Yu’s departing back.
Ye Qingxuan took a deep breath and said, “We’ll wait here. I don’t believe that the Great Qin Imperial Family will do anything to him, an outsider. One day, he’ll remember how good Great Yan was. ”
“Let’s go back to the inn and review the footage on the Recording Stone. I don’t believe we can’t find this good-for-nothing’s weakness! ”
Ye Qingshuang nodded, agreeing that it was the only option for now.
At the inn, after Ye Qingshuang set up restrictions, she injected spiritual energy into the Recording Stone, and the footage reappeared before them.
The image froze on Ye Yu being slapped away, then continued playing.
In the East Palace, Ye Yu was covered in bl00d and soon fell unconscious. Then, a tall figure in golden armor entered.
Both of them recognized this person: Yan Ji, the commander of the Great Yan Golden Armored Guards!
Ye Qingxuan frowned. Although Ye Yu had established the Golden Armored Guards, Yan Ji was Ye Xuan’s confidant, yet he appeared in the footage.
An idea immediately popped into her mind.
Could Yan Ji be a mole Ye Yu planted beside Ye Xuan?!
