And Tempering An Unsullied Body - Chapter 41

Not far away, a magnificent building came into view. There were sculptural galleries, painted walls, jade buildings, and even the walls were decorated with broken gold spirit foils, shining brilliantly under the sunlight.

The seven-colored glazed tiles were exceptionally dazzling, one piece was worth a thousand gold coins. The stone lion at the door was even more lifelike, as if it was about to come to life. The spirit energy was wanton, and it was actually carved out of the entire thousand-year-old spirit marrow. Such a large amount of spending, it left people dumbstruck.

Only the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce had the capital and strength to do so. One could imagine just how deep their foundations were. An item worth a thousand gold could be casually placed, and what they saw could only be the tip of an iceberg.

“After we enter, we must be careful in our words and actions, and abide by the rules. Remember not to be rash. There are many hidden dragons and tigers in the capital, not to mention experts from other places. If we offend them, the consequences will be unimaginable.”

“Whether it’s the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce or those hidden powers and large sects, they are not people we can afford to offend. Therefore, we must keep a low profile.”

Wu Huaqing had repeatedly warned them. He was afraid that this group of disciples was young and impetuous and did not know the immensity of Heaven and Earth. If they offended someone, even the sect might suffer.

“Don’t worry, we all know the elders.”

Wu Huaqing then led everyone into the Chamber of Commerce and handed the invitation over. The Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce only glanced at it casually and said nonchalantly, “Taiqing Sect? You can wait over there.”

He pointed at a spot and everyone looked over. It was the corner of the hall.

Besides that, there were already many people standing beside it. It could be said that it was very narrow.

Wu Huaqing was about to say something when that person frowned and said, “Could it be that you still dislike this place? You should know that there are some sects that can’t even enter the main gate nowadays. It’s already quite good for a small sect like yours to have a corner seat.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a cry of surprise came from the crowd. “The Upper Qian Sect has arrived!”

A group of people walked in from the door. Each of them was dressed in black and white clothes with golden patterns of auspicious clouds embroidered on them. The cuffs were outlined with silver threads, making them look extraordinary. The aura they emitted was even more shocking, almost all of them were at the fifth or sixth level of Spirit Gathering.

That person immediately changed his expression and went up to greet them. “I didn’t know that the people of the Upper Qian Sect had graced us with their presence. Please excuse me for not welcoming you. We would like to invite you upstairs.”

Such a contrast was simply like the difference between Heaven and Earth. The people of the Supreme Purity Sect who saw this scene were somewhat indignant.

“What kind of people are the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce? They change their expressions faster than flipping a book. Aren’t they looking down on us too much?”

Wu Huaqing hurriedly stopped them. “What did I tell you just now? be cautious with your words! You’ve forgotten about this so quickly.”

He could not help but sigh. “There is always someone better than you. There is always someone better. Our Supreme Purity Sect might be considered quite powerful, but in the capital, it really isn’t much.”

For example, those great powers and sects were all on the second or third floor, and even the best could reach the fourth floor. The higher the floor, the more noble the status. Ordinary people simply could not easily step into it.

In the capital, powers and sects from all over gathered. The city where the Supreme Purity Sect was located was not particularly large, so its resources were limited. Moreover, its geographical location was relatively remote. Compared to these behemoths, it was truly too small.

“What kind of background does this Upper Qian Sect have? I can see that the people around them are all in awe of them.”

A few disciples were discussing animatedly over there. When the people around them heard this, they revealed contemptuous smiles.

“With one look, I can tell that all of you are from outside. The Upper Qian Sect is one of the five great powers of the capital. Any disciple that walks out can easily crush all of you to death. You have to be careful with your words. Otherwise, you would find yourself in a lot of trouble.

These words were a little too arrogant, and the people from the Supreme Purity Sect were somewhat displeased when they heard them. After all, they were one in a hundred disciples in the sect, yet they were belittled by outsiders and forgot Wu Huaqing’s teachings, they could not help but argue with them.

“You aren’t a disciple of the Upper Qian sect, what’s there to be proud of here?”

“It’s better than you coming from a small place! You can only stay in the corner of this hall.”

The disciple snorted and even pushed him, “A good dog doesn’t block the way. Can’t you see that we are going to go over?”

The disciples of the Supreme Purity Sect were caught off guard. They stumbled and almost fell to the ground. They said angrily, “Why are you pushing us!”

“Who pushed you? Don’t slander us. You are clearly blocking the way here.”

Seeing that this group of people was so unreasonable, the people of the Supreme Purity Sect secretly clenched their fists.

The dispute here attracted the attention of many people. Seeing that it would not end well, Wu Huaqing hurriedly said, “Don’t cause trouble.”

“Elder Wu, these people provoked us first! They’ve really gone too far.”

Apparently, the person in charge of the hall also noticed their quarrel. “What are you shouting here for? The Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce is not a place where you can be impudent. If you want to quarrel, you can go out.”

After saying this, he glanced at the people of the Supreme Purity Sect. It was self-evident who he was targeting.

It turned out that the few disciples and sects that had just spoken against them had a good relationship with the Upper Qian Sect. These people did not want to offend the Upper Qian Sect, which was why they attacked them.

After all, these sects that came from other places should not have any powerful backing behind them.

There were a few other managers of the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce in the hall, but they also turned a blind eye to this.

Those few disciples were complacent. They looked at the people of the Supreme Purity Sect and said, “Have you seen clearly? In the capital, you can only speak with strength. Otherwise, you’d better go back to where you came from!”

At this moment, Fan Baohua was leading Li Buxiang and the others in a careful search on the fourth floor.

“Quickly, let’s see if that person is here!”
