I have the best bloodline

Two miles away, upon seeing the princess's carriage, Manager Huang hurriedly instructed his shop assistants to clear a path, pushing aside the monks crowding the street to allow the carriage to pass.

"Manager Huang's."

Princess Wuxi stepped out of the carriage, glanced at the police tape cordoning off the street beside her, and the shopkeepers who had been idly strolling along the street being pushed under the eaves, and said calmly:

"I'm just taking a friend out for a stroll, it's not a formal outing, there's no need for such pomp and circumstance. Get rid of all those servants! Lead the way."

"It's really lively here!"

Feeling a bit hot, Su Yan manifested his human form and stepped out of the carriage. He immediately saw the various stalls on the street, as well as a large group of cultivators glaring angrily at him and Princess Wuxi.

Previously, the streets along the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion were lined with ordinary vendors, but now they are all occupied by cultivators selling medicinal herbs, various magical artifacts, and unregistered pills.

"Brother, would you like some 'power pills'? Every single one of my pills is guaranteed to give you a boost."

Su Yan stepped off the carriage down the wooden steps and walked into the appraisal pavilion under the protection of the guards. Seeing the grand procession of the group, the stall owners next to him couldn't help but start promoting their goods.

"Thank you, but no need." Su Yan waved her hand at the vendor who had called out to her, "I'm too young to need it."

These unlicensed street vendors, in Fox Mom's words, are like this: "Do you know the vendor well, or did he save your life before? How could you buy pills and magic weapons from a street stall like this? You'd rather trust the character of an unlicensed vendor than believe I'm the Emperor of No Life?"

These stalls often sell counterfeit goods, or the goods themselves are fine but made with inferior raw materials.

The fox mother had repeatedly warned Su Yan not to buy pills from roadside stalls, as doing so would be tantamount to entrusting his life to strangers.

"Old Tao, the princess has arrived!"

Manager Huang led the way, taking Su Yan and Princess Wuxi to the third floor of the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion. They arrived at a private treasure appraisal room, and with a smile on his face, he pushed open the door of the soundproof and visually obstructing room and called out to the female cultivator who was reclining on a leather chair inside.

"Tao Hong, a disciple of the Weapon Sect, greets the Princess." Upon seeing the arrival of the person in question, the female cultivator led the two disciples beside her to bow to Princess Wuxi.

Although Tao Hong calls herself a disciple, her true identity is one of the nine elders of the Weapon Sect. She is mainly responsible for making robes and accessories. She once used her sewing skills to weave a set of robes that could rival immortal artifacts.

"Senior Tao Hong, let's skip the formalities. There's no point in going around in circles with those things."

Princess Wuxi sat imposingly at the table and said to Elder Taohong, "The main reason I had Manager Huang invite you here is to order a custom-made immortal boat from your Weaponry Sect for my friend."

"I just wonder what Senior Peach Blossom thinks?"

"Would you like to buy a custom-made Xianzhou?"

Tao Hong looked at Su Yan, whom the princess was pointing at, and her brows furrowed almost imperceptibly. She said, "As for the immortal boat, the manufacturing technology of the Xia Yu Dynasty is no less advanced."

"cough cough"

Upon hearing Tao Hong speak, Princess Wu Xi coughed lightly to give Elder Tao Hong a reminder.

Stop beating around the bush. If Xia Yu could really build a custom-made immortal ship, I wouldn't be looking for you!

"Alright! I'll be blunt, we can't sell them." Tao Hong said helplessly, "Our Weapon Sect has always sold custom-made immortal boats at a loss, with the intention of making friends in the martial arts world, not as actual products."

Those who can own a custom-made immortal boat are either leaders of major forces or direct blood relatives of the leaders.

Faced with Princess Wuxi's abrupt request, Elder Taohong refused without hesitation.

Although the customized immortal boat is called a commodity, it carries a strong political connotation. It is a gift used by the Weapon Sect to establish friendships with the leaders of various forces. If the customized immortal boat is actually sold as a commodity, then the customized immortal boat will lose its unique meaning.

How can something that lacks sophistication be considered a gift?

"My friend's identity is certainly not simple, otherwise he wouldn't have come to you with this matter."

Princess Wuxi grabbed Su Yan's arm, patted Su Yan's chest with one hand, and said, "It may not be convenient to reveal his identity now, but I assure you in my name as a princess that in two months, I guarantee that he will make you all drop your jaws."

The Four Dragon Kings have already begun their efforts, joining forces with Emperor Wusheng and the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan to negotiate a settlement between the Dragon Father and the Fox Mother without damaging relations between the two sides.

The Dragon Clan knew that the Nine-Tailed Foxes loathed their clan's unrestrained reproduction, but the fact that the Dragon Clan could arrange a peace meeting with the Emperor of No Life as a witness showed that they had absolute confidence in persuading the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan.

At that time, as the first nine-tailed Yazi born from the marriage between the dragon clan and the nine-tailed fox clan, its value will be so high that a mere custom-made immortal ship wouldn't be enough to buy it.

pink:"."

Princess, you told me not to beat around the bush, but why are you starting to beat around the bush and try to fool me?

I wrote 160,000 words last month and was planning to take a break on the 1st.

But the more I thought about it, the more guilty I felt.

So, even though I'm taking leave, I'm still preparing to write the previous chapter.

Chapter 457 The Trick

"My friend here is someone important; you won't lose money selling your immortal boat!"

Princess Wuxi pulled Su Yan over, patted his chest, and confidently assured the elder of the Weapon Sect.

Who has ever seen a nine-tailed Yazi before? Doesn't your Weapon Sect have anything to offer? This is the first time a nine-tailed fox and a dragon have had a child through a marriage!

If not invincible, he is at least exceptionally fierce!

"."

Tao Hong stared at Princess Wu Xi with a dark expression, inwardly complaining, "You said you wouldn't lie or beat around the bush? Why are you lying to me now?"

Su Yan's identity cannot be revealed for the time being. Before the Nine-Tailed Fox and the Dragon Clan reach an agreement, Princess Wuxi cannot reveal Su Yan or his connections, lest it provoke other clans with ulterior motives to use underhanded tactics to obstruct the peace talks.

Therefore, Princess Wuxi could only use her own name to guarantee Su Yan that the Weapon Sect would not lose money selling the customized immortal boat and that it would not lower its prestige.

"."

Peach Blossom looked thoughtful for a moment, then slowly said, "Since the princess says so, then I can't refuse any longer."

"But! I need this young fellow Daoist to prove it. If you are truly as powerful as the princess says, then you should be able to demonstrate extraordinary qualities, right?"

Even Elder Tao Hong of the Weapon Sect had to give Princess Wu Xi face when facing her.

Although the Weapon Sect is nominally a neutral force, true neutrality is not absolute when it comes to living within the cultivation world. The Xia Yu Dynasty and the Third Prince frequently patronize the Weapon Sect's businesses and directly provide convenient access for its disciples in the Central Continent.

With this sentiment in mind, Tao Hong couldn't say anything too harsh. However, the custom-made immortal boat was a sect gift used by the Weapon Sect to make friends. Its value was incomparable to spiritual artifacts, and in some ways, it could even be said to be comparable to a damaged immortal artifact.

If a damaged but still imbued with immortal energy falls into the hands of the elders of the Weapon Sect, they can forge a semi-finished immortal artifact based on it.

This clearly demonstrates what a custom-made immortal ship means to the Artifact Sect.

Therefore, Elder Tao Hong directly threw the question to Princess Wu Xi and Su Yan. Su Yan proved that he was indeed worthy of the Weapon Sect spending hundreds of millions of spirit stones and a large amount of non-renewable refining materials to build a celestial ship for him without any verification of qualifications or identity.

Elder Tao Hong was very cunning. When she asked Su Yan to prove himself, no matter what Princess Wu Xi and Su Yan said, Tao Hong had already grasped the standard of judgment and the initiative.

How can I prove it myself?

The criteria for judging whether something is qualified are unclear, and whether it is qualified or not is entirely up to Tao Hong.

In this way, Tao Hong could refuse Princess Wu Xi's request without damaging the relationship between the two parties, and shift all the responsibility onto Su Yan.

The opportunity was given to you, but you couldn't seize it!

"Hey everyone, come have some tea!"

Just as Tao Hong was setting the conditions for Su Yan to prove his talent to the Weaponry Sect, Manager Huang, who had been silently brewing tea nearby, spoke up with a beaming smile and brought hot tea to everyone, saying:

"I heard you talking about special qualities, but for the demon race, there shouldn't be anything more impressive than combat talent, right?"

"If you want to fight, there is a fighting platform on the roof of our Treasure Pavilion. As you know, we who are in business often encounter situations where multiple customers are fighting over goods. Generally, when there is a dispute, I suggest that they fight on the roof to see who is right."

Manager Huang served tea with a beaming smile, while simultaneously intervening to gain favor with the princess's side.

Tao Hong frowned and glanced at Manager Huang.

When Manager Huang opened his mouth, he made the originally abstract criteria concrete, directly shattering the trap hidden in Tao Hong's previous words.

"Princess, please forgive us for not having any particularly precious teas at our Treasure Appraisal Pavilion." Manager Huang smiled as he served tea to Princess Wuxi.

"Um"

Princess Wuxi nodded slightly and looked at Tao Hong.

"Want to have a magic duel?"

Su Yan showed a slight reluctance, finding the contest of magical arts too troublesome. When Elder Tao Hong said that he needed to prove his talent, Su Yan prepared to take out a table from his storage ring, place it in front of the Weapon Sect elder, and bet hundreds of millions of small sums with her.

Su Yan was not very confident in other aspects, but he was very confident in his gambling luck.

If Princess Wuxi were to stamp her seal on himself before the duel, gaining a small amount of the Xia Yu Dynasty's national fortune, Su Yan was confident that he could make the cunning and treacherous Elder Tao Hong return to the Weapon Sect in tears, or perhaps the Weapon Sect would come to redeem him with a custom-made immortal boat.

As a result, Manager Huang intervened and set the competition question for proving one's unique qualities in advance.

"Alright! Let me see for myself what qualities this young Daoist you so highly praise, Princess, possesses!"

Tao Hong glanced at Manager Huang, then at Princess Wuxi, and remained silent for a moment. It was hard not to suspect that the two of them were setting a trap for her, so she brought up the topic.

Elder Tao Hong felt she had been set up, but there was nothing more to say now that things had come to this. Tao Hong prepared to personally shatter all the young fellow's illusions.

They set up the scheme first, so they shouldn't blame themselves for being unethical and bullying the weak.

"Business is coming in!"

Seeing that Tao Hong agreed, Manager Huang smiled and walked from the tea table toward the door. When he reached the corner of the stairs, he instructed the waiter beside him, "Unfold the platform and sell some tickets at the door. Tell them that the champion of the Fox Tasting Competition, an underage fox, is preparing to challenge the plump and beautiful elder of the Weapon Sect in hand-to-hand combat."

"You know what I mean, right? You little brat?"

"Got it! The more vulgar the better, to attract more people to buy tickets, right?" The waiter waiting by the stairs was originally trained by the shopkeeper. After a little thought, he understood the meaning behind the shopkeeper's words and said with a look of realization.

"You're good at handling things, go ahead!"

Manager Huang smiled and told him to sell tickets, and secretly opened a commission betting platform for everyone to place bets.

Although he didn't know Su Yan's background, judging from Princess Wuxi's high regard for him, this little nephew of Fellow Daoist Insect should have some things, but the shopkeeper naturally didn't know how many.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have opened a commission-based betting platform; instead, he would have opened a direct betting platform and reaped profits from a round of gamblers.

........................

As the people in the private room walked out onto the terrace and jumped onto the roof of the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion, an invisible barrier spread out on the ground, covering an area of ​​nearly two thousand square meters.

After the invisible platform unfolded, it quickly transformed into a completely different shade of black, blocking out those prying from below.

"Come on, young fellow Daoist!"

Elder Tao Hong floated over a hundred meters away, turned around and looked at Su Yan, saying indifferently, "I will lower my cultivation level to test you. I hope you can show qualities that will impress our Weapon Sect."

"Senior, please wait a moment."

Su Yan looked at the princess, whose face was full of encouragement and who was gesturing for him to go and do Tao Hong, and then glanced at Elder Tao Hong, whose cheeks were slightly annoyed. He sighed helplessly and said, "Give me half a cup of tea's time."
