Chapter 3, Celestial Crystal Essence

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Regarding the matter of the "Xuan Yu Ruyi," it was due to Zuo Wuji's excessive extravagance that he fell into poverty not long ago; under the encouragement of a group of people, he actually pawned a Xuan Yu Ruyi that belonged to his father. Although this Xuan Yu Ruyi is not a rare and extraordinary treasure, it is still a precious rarity, worth at least ten thousand taels of gold, yet it was only pawned for a little over one thousand taels of silver. As a result, Young Master Zuo nearly faced a fatal beating from his father. Consequently, he has been dubbed the "most wasteful heir of the Chen Empire."

If this person has a bit of temper, then slaughtering a city is definitely not a trivial matter

Upon seeing the two individuals, Zuo Wuji immediately began to chatter incessantly and curse.

How is it that in this mundane world, which is far inferior to the Azure Cloud Sky Domain, there appears a piece as large as a human head? Moreover, it has been carved into such a shape that seems ready to take flight, using Celestial Crystal Essence?

This is a problem

As they continued on their way, Ye Xiao suddenly felt a vague sensation, as if her heart had skipped a beat.

The term "Three Young Masters of the Capital" is certainly derogatory

This crystal spirit marrow is indeed a legendary item, taking ten thousand years to form, and then growing only an inch over the course of a thousand years. Not to mention in this low-level realm, even in the Qingyun Heavenly Domain where Ye Xiaoyuan resides, it is something that can only be encountered by chance and cannot be sought after, existing only in legends as a precious item

Moreover, the three of us were originally known as the Three Young Masters of the capital, standing side by side... However, recently I have become the least capable among us, and it was still due to their instigation... Now, Zuo Wuji feels nothing but resentment towards these two.

As she watched, Ye Xiao felt a surge of excitement in her heart, difficult to contain

Just give me this thing ... ! ... No, you don't have to give me all of it, even just a bite, then just scraping off a layer of powder would be enough to neutralize my poison immediately and lay the foundation instantly

Hello, wake up

In addition to the title of the foremost spendthrift, Young Master Zuo has suddenly emerged from the ranks of the 'Three Young Masters of the Capital' alongside Ye Xiaolan, becoming the number one among the prodigals, truly looking down upon others and standing out among his peers

It is evident that this individual harbors a deep-seated resentment towards Ye Xiao and Lan Langlang, one that has truly penetrated to the marrow and is difficult to erase

In the early days of the Azure Cloud Sky Domain, even the slightest appearance of such valuable items would incite frenzied competition among the major factions. For the sake of this Celestial Crystal Essence, countless disputes and lives have been lost.

Being a second-generation official is indeed advantageous, as one gets to experience all the good things...

Heavenly Crystal Spirit Essence

Upon getting off the vehicle and looking around, the three golden characters of the Left Prime Minister's residence were shining brightly

A treasure!

Feeling the strict defenses of the Left Prime Minister's residence, Young Master Ye Xiao was filled with sorrow... With his brother's current feeble body, it seemed impossible to either steal or rob...

Ye Xiao! Lan Langlang and Zuo Wuji shouted together: "What are you foolishly laughing at? What beautiful things are you thinking about?"

Ugh... Ugh... Ye Xiao had her mouth covered, and after a struggle, she finally managed to break free. Thoughts raced through her mind as she said: "It is said that the Lingbao Pavilion will hold an auction the day after tomorrow, and among the items for auction, there is a Xuan Yu Ruyi... Hehe, it's quite similar to the one your father has, and it is said to be even better than your father's..."

"By the way, Zuo Wuji, I heard that you sold your father's Xuan Yu Ruyi a while ago? Is that true?" Ye Xiao asked, blinking his eyes.

It is precisely due to this peculiar intuition that he has unknowingly reaped countless benefits and valuable books. The ability to make even the most heroic figures laugh is also reliant on this extraordinary talent. However, he did not expect that after being reborn, this ability would still accompany him, adding much support to his future life

Ye Xiao, after cursing a few times, suddenly had a flash of inspiration as her eyes darted around.

Now, the only thing to consider is how to take a bite, just one bite will suffice...

"Lan Langlang! You bastard!" Zuo Wuji shouted angrily, "Was it you who drugged me last night? You son of a dog, you almost killed me!"

This Zuo Wuji, according to his own impression, is indeed a remarkable person. Although he is known alongside Ye Xiaolan as one of the 'Three Young Masters of the Capital,' he has always been at odds with the other two, essentially engaging in conflicts whenever they meet, making it difficult for any peace to prevail.

Yet Ye Xiaoxin found it strange: This is the secular world, what good things could there possibly be that could make the heart of someone like himself, the Laughing Monarch who traverses the Azure Cloud Heaven Domain, leap like this?

Everyone usually competes with one another, and no one concedes to the other. I have also played many tricks on Ye Xiao and Lan Langlang, which is nothing out of the ordinary... However, how could you possibly drug me...

That's it, exactly!

However, how should I obtain this thing

As I move forward, this feeling becomes increasingly pronounced

Two young rascals boarded the carriage, making a clattering sound all the way. Ye Xiao was still somewhat unaccustomed to this extravagant lifestyle, but looking at Lan Langlang, who was glancing around with delight, clearly enjoying herself, she even lifted the curtain of the carriage, playfully throwing flirtatious glances with her cross-eyed gaze. As she pursed her lips, a sharp whistle rang out, startling the young women and wives on the street, causing them to scatter in all directions.

This Celestial Crystal Essence should have a layer of something attached to its surface, concealing its true nature

That feeling is precisely emanating from there

This ...! ... isn't this exactly what is referred to as wasteful extravagance in legend!

When the car came to a stop, a subtle feeling emerged, as if it were within arm's reach, undeniably real

"There are no women, but there are still men. I suspect that Young Master Ye has taken a liking to you..." Lan Langlang chuckled lewdly, his cross-eyed gaze rolling around. This remark immediately provoked a torrent of curses from Zuo Wuji.

In this situation, if anyone from the Qingyun Heavenly Domain were to see it, they would likely faint from heartache

On this, there is a white jade pedestal; upon the pedestal lies a piece of white, lustrous stone; the surface of the stone is rough and dull, appearing exceedingly ordinary; apart from its shape resembling a bird poised to take flight, it possesses no other redeeming qualities

Ye Xiao's heart was filled with immense excitement

Furthermore, based on the arrangement position...

In an instant, it felt as if a large pie had fallen from the sky, landing right in front of me

It turns out to be this treasure

Ye Xiao never expected that during her first visit after her rebirth, she would come across such a treasure

Not going out... Huh? This could work... Ye smiled, originally troubled by the toxins in his body that were difficult to expel, having no interest in going out to fool around with this guy. But upon hearing this, he suddenly became spirited. In his memory, among the several wealthy young masters he had drunk with last night, it seemed that this Zuo Wuji was one of them; perhaps this poison was indeed his doing.

I said, "Young Master Ye, this is my home..." Zuo Wuji looked at this "dull and foolish bumpkin" with a sidelong glance, sarcastically saying, "What are you thinking again? Please, don't show that lecherous smile of yours anymore; there are no women here!"

It is not surprising that the two were astonished

Zuo Wuji waved his palm back and forth in front of Ye Xiao's eyes

"Yes, yes. With this thing," Lan Langlang nodded repeatedly, "I will also attend the auction the day after tomorrow. I want to see the world."

However, Ye Xiao paid no attention to the attitude of Young Master Zuo; all his focus and energy were devoted to observation. His eyes repeatedly scanned a table in the Zuo family's living room.

This, however, is Ye Xiao's unique spiritual perception, which he could never comprehend in his past life, yet has been honed through countless trials. As long as there are any rare treasures nearby, even if he does not recognize them, he will feel his heart suddenly leap once.

"Let’s go, let’s go! Last night before leaving, I slipped some medicine to Zuo Wuji. Today, no matter what, I must go take a look!" Lan Langlang raised his eyebrows and laughed heartily, "This bastard has always been against us, truly detestable. But after he lost his father’s Xuan Yu Ruyi, he has been under house arrest until now. Now that he has finally come out, how could I let such a great opportunity slip by..."

It seems that in this Left Prime Minister's residence, it is unlikely that they truly regard it as something good

The original owner of this body is quite a peculiar individual. As for his friend... just look at this guy, neglected by his grandmother and unloved by his uncle, wearing a hat in the sweltering heat, he resembles someone engaged in performance art. He even has a self-satisfied and pretentious expression on his face

There is a poem that goes: "The three young masters of the capital are truly remarkable; with no strength in business, they possess a high tendency to squander. With gold and silver in hand, they take joy in revelry, shameless and brazen, the epitome of debauchery. The General of the North, a young master named Xiao; the son of a military family, a mere fool. Within the Southern Prefecture, wild waves surge; named Lang, the tide of extravagance. The Left Chancellor is talented, yet his son is unrestrained; with mysterious jade and wishes, he has pawned them away. Why pawn books? Engaging in drinking, playing, and debauchery, such individuals are the highest among the three young masters!"

"What the hell..." Zuo Wuji suddenly rushed forward, covering his mouth tightly, his face filled with panic. In a hushed and urgent tone, he said: "What the hell! How can you just shout anything you want... I had no idea that was something valuable. That day, I was short on cash and casually took something out to exchange for money; then so many people had a good time for a few days... I only found out later that thing was actually my father's treasured possession, used for treating illnesses... I had no idea that was something valuable. That day, I was short on cash and casually took something out to exchange for money; then so many people had a good time for a few days... I only found out later that thing was actually my father's treasured possession, used for treating illnesses... Because of this, I have been living a life worse than death... Every day, my family treats me like a punching bag... Please, don't mention this at my home; it could lead to someone's death ah ah ah ah.

"Let's go!" Lan Langlang excitedly crossed her eyes, pulling Ye Xiao along as they rushed out the door.

Lan Langlang and Zuo Wuji, two young masters, were engaged in a lively exchange of insults over there, thoroughly enjoying themselves, while Ye Xiao devoted all his attention to observing this object

... ...

For instance, even the monarch himself, when faced with the Celestial Crystal Spirit Essence, was equally powerless to escape, and was unable to move his legs on the spot

Clearly, that is just an ordinary ornament from the Left family... it is not regarded as anything valuable...

What happened?" Ye Xiao came to his senses and cursed in annoyance

What is going on? Lan Langlang and Zuo Wuji are both quite extraordinary: "Why is this guy suddenly laughing so lewdly..."

An item worth ten thousand taels of gold was exchanged for merely one thousand taels of silver, and within just two or three days, it was completely squandered... Such extravagant and wasteful behavior is indeed astonishing.

The two individuals were engaged in a heated exchange of insults, their words flying back and forth, leaving them both parched and breathless. However, upon turning their heads, they discovered Ye Xiao stretching his neck, staring blankly into the void with a silly grin, and surprisingly, there was a glimmering droplet of saliva at the corner of his mouth
