Extracting all things: My attributes grow infinitely.

The decor of the fifth floor is completely different from that of the four floors below.

There were no display cases, no light shows, and no various equipment or decorations.

The view is a floor-to-ceiling window with a panoramic view of Tianyuan City.

roof,

spire,

Distant mountains,

It unfolds layer upon layer, like a magnificent and beautiful scroll painting.

The ground was covered with some kind of animal hide, as soft as cotton, and a faint sandalwood scent filled the air.

When Jiang Chuan stepped onto the last step, he had only one thought in his mind.

It's nice to have money.

Xing'er stopped half a step ahead of him, bowed slightly, and did not continue to walk forward. She turned her head and gave Jiang Chuan a standard professional smile: "Mr. Jiang, the Pavilion Master is already waiting for you inside."

"Sect Master?"

Jiang Chuan was taken aback: "You didn't mention this to me before."

Xing'er smiled: "You are a newly promoted diamond member of our Craftsman's Pavilion, and it is only right that the Pavilion Master personally receives you, Mr. Jiang. Rest assured, the Pavilion Master is very kind."

Jiang Chuan thought to himself that this had nothing to do with whether someone was good or bad. He was just there to sell the few pieces of gold equipment he had and didn't want to make things too complicated.

But he didn't say anything more, nodded, and walked straight into the lobby on the fifth floor.

Deep inside the hall, near the floor-to-ceiling windows, there is a long table.

The woman at the table stood up when she heard footsteps.

She was tall and slender, wearing a deep purple dress, with a light veil covering her face, revealing only her eyes and a small patch of skin on her forehead. Her emerald green eyes were as clear as the autumn sky.

"Mr. Jiang, I've heard so much about you."

Her voice was younger than Jiang Chuan had imagined: "I am Yuan Ziyi, the head of the Craftsmen's Pavilion. Please forgive my intrusion in welcoming you."

Jiang Chuan calmly replied, "Sect Leader Yuan, you are too kind. I am just a junior, how could I dare to let you personally receive me?"

"Mr. Jiang is too modest."

Yuan Ziyi smiled, her veil fluttering slightly: "Please sit down."

Yuan Ziyi cut to the chase, without beating around the bush: "Mr. Jiang, are you here today to do another business deal with us?"

Jiang Chuan didn't argue with her.

He took the two pieces of equipment directly out of his backpack.

Two pieces of gold equipment, a two-handed greatsword and a shield, both in good condition.

While it may not be considered top-quality, in a place like Tianyuan City, it would definitely be a sought-after item that wouldn't have trouble selling.

Yuan Ziyi's gaze swept over the two pieces of equipment.

His eyebrows were slightly raised.

What surprised her was not how good the attributes of the two pieces of equipment were, but that Jiang Chuan actually managed to obtain them.

She had already investigated Jiang Chuan, an F-level disassembler from a poor background. He had no money and no status. What way could he possibly obtain gold equipment?

"Both of Mr. Jiang's pieces of equipment are in excellent condition, especially this shield."

Her gaze fell on the shield: "Although it is a Tier 1 gold equipment, the workmanship is superb and the material is extraordinary. It can fetch a good price in the market of Tianyuan City."

"Just give me an estimate, Master Yuan."

Jiang Chuan picked up his teacup and took a sip. The tea was slightly bitter at first, but the aftertaste was very sweet. A warm feeling slid down his throat, and he felt much more comfortable.

"Seven hundred thousand for the shield, seven hundred thousand for the two-handed sword. It'll be a bit cheaper; I can offer six hundred thousand."

Yuan Ziyi gave a number.

After listening, Jiang Chuan nodded calmly; the price was already much higher than he had expected.

"make a deal."

Yuan Ziyi smiled slightly, picked up a bell on the table and shook it. Xing'er quickly appeared and took away the two pieces of golden equipment.

Before long, the transaction amount was transferred to Jiang Chuan's account, and the string of zeros after the number made him very happy.

But he didn't leave in a hurry.

Yuan Ziyi showed no sign of wanting to see the guest off.

Jiang Chuan said, "I also plan to buy some things to replenish my qi and blood."

"No problem."

Yuan Ziyi didn't ask him what he wanted; she just gave him instructions, and Xing'er quickly returned carrying an exquisite wooden box.

Open the wooden box.

Several items were neatly arranged inside:

There were Ganoderma lucidum, ginseng, and some other medicinal herbs that he didn't recognize. Even a layman could tell that they were of excellent quality and not the kind that could be easily bought on the market.

"A hundred-year-old snow lingzhi and a three-hundred-year-old scrophularia are both excellent for nourishing qi and replenishing blood."

"And this too."

Yuan Ziyi took out a porcelain bottle from the box: "This is the Dragon Tiger Pill produced by the Fountain of Youth. It has a strong nourishing effect on older professionals who are deficient in qi and blood."

Her deliberate mention of "older professionals" speaks volumes about her intentions.

Jiang Chuan remained expressionless.

"How much?"

Yuan Ziyi said, "These are just small things, they don't cost much. I heard that Mr. Jiang's parents are not in good health, so this is just a small token of my appreciation."

Jiang Chuan looked at her for two seconds and smiled, "Alright, I'll thank Pavilion Master Yuan on behalf of my parents."

After three rounds of tea.

Jiang Chuan still did not get up.

He calmly said, "Master Yuan came to see me personally, surely not just to chat about everyday matters."

Yuan Ziyi sat upright in the chair, her hands folded on her knees, her posture elegant. "Mr. Jiang is indeed a smart man. There are a few things I don't understand and would like to ask Mr. Jiang for advice in person."

"Speaking."

Yuan Ziyi said, "I took the liberty of checking your spending records. You registered as a member of the Craftsman's Pavilion less than three days ago, and your spending has already exceeded one million."

"But according to my investigation, you are just a newly awakened F-level disassembler, and your parents are just ordinary workers in Tianyuan City."

"How could someone acquire such a huge sum of money?"

"Out of curiosity, I investigated further."

"We also discovered that you sold a large amount of materials at Baibao Trading Company under the name of the Blazing Fire Band, and the total value of these materials... was exactly one million."

Jiang Chuan's expression remained unchanged.

He had considered from the beginning that his extravagant spending would not stand up to scrutiny.

They were targeted at this time.

It was just the result he had expected.

However, after three days of in-depth conversations with Xu Yinyin, he has come to understand roughly what level his abilities are at.

At least I can spar with a seventh-tier professional. In a small place like Tianyuan City, where only seventh-tier experts are the highest level, I can be a little more unrestrained.

He asked, "Does Pavilion Master Yuan suspect that my items are of dubious origin?"

"I wouldn't dare."

Yuan Ziyi smiled and said, "These are your private matters, and in principle I have no right to ask. But there is one thing I just can't figure out."

She leaned forward slightly, her veil fluttering gently with her movement: "You also visited the Mystic Tree Realm, on the very day it was destroyed."

The secret realm destroyed?

Only now did Jiang Chuan realize the extent of the impact his breakthrough to the Nightmare difficulty had on the Tree Mystic Realm.

"Coincidentally, I was also there that day. Since you are a VIP of Jiangqi Pavilion, I paid special attention to the list when I saw it."

"After the secret realm was destroyed, you also disappeared. I thought you had perished inside."

"But I never expected to see you again."

"you……"

"How did they even survive?"

Yuan Ziyi's eyes were filled with curiosity.

Jiang Chuan said, "That's my secret."

Yuan Ziyi smiled and said, "Everyone has secrets, and secrets happen to be the most valuable things in the world. I'm a businesswoman, and what I like to do most is deal with people who have secrets."

Jiang Chuan leaned down and asked, "What if my secret is something that would kill you?"

Yuan Ziyi's smile froze, then she clapped her hands nonchalantly: "Mr. Jiang, you don't need to be so wary. I just want to do some business with you."

Before he could finish speaking...

A towering figure, as thick as an iron tower, emerged from behind her.

A heavy, mountain-like aura erupted from the other party, pressing down directly on Jiang Chuan. Yuan Ziyi was trying to give him a warning.

"Oh."

Jiang Chuan gave a cold laugh, and his figure suddenly disappeared, leaving only the chair beneath him trembling slightly.

next moment.

A heavy, muffled thud echoed throughout the entire fifth floor.

boom!!

Jiang Chuan reappeared, having replaced the burly man. He punched the man, sending him flying and embedding him deeply in the wall, his fate unknown.

Jiang Chuan walked up to Yuan Ziyi, who was frozen in place, and gently placed his hand on her shoulder: "Sect Leader Yuan, do you still want to hear my secret now?"
