Chapter 421 Announcing His Departure (1/2)

After recalling his experience to them, Yuan showed off his newly acquired treasure.

”What? You had that on you the entire time? I didn't even notice it!” Feng Yuxiang was surprised when Yuan suddenly removed the Invisible Dragon Cloak from his body, allowing the others to see it.

”An Ancient-grade treasure… As expected of the Great One… He's known for having the biggest collection of treasures in the Nine Heavens.” Feng Yuxiang sighed in admiration, as she has heard of countless legends about the Great One in the upper heavens.

Sometime later, Yuan said, ”Okay, I am going to speak with the Sect Master now regarding my departure.”

After the others returned to his body, Yuan and Meixiu returned to the Dragon Essence Temple.

”Sect Master, are you there?” Yuan knocked on the Sect Master's headquarters.

”Disciple Yuan? I'm a little busy right now, but you can enter. I'll be with you after I'm done here.” Long Yijun's voice resounded a moment later.

Yuan proceeded to open the door and enter the building, and to his surprise, there were many people gathered inside at this moment.

Elder Xuan and Elder Shang were also there alongside four unfamiliar faces.

However, it was clear to Yuan at a glance that the atmosphere was an unpleasant one.

”That's Disciple Yuan? The person who opened the Mystic Pagoda and refused to ascend with Senior Nie?”

One of the people Yuan didn't recognize mumbled in a surprised voice.

”Disciple Yuan, you can take a seat over there for now. This won't take long.” Long Yijun said to them.

And then he returned to the four individuals and said, ”Anyways, back to our topic. I am willing to return the Divine-grade treasures you'd lost to our Dragon Essence Temple during the bet, but it won't be for free.”

”100,000 spirit stones. That is the amount I am willing to sell it for— no more, no less.”

”100,000 spirit stones?! Are you out of your damn mind, Long Yijun?! That's one billion gold! Even Divine-grade treasures aren't worth that much!” One of the guests there said.

”That's right! The last time a Divine-grade treasure was sold, it was sold for around 600 million gold!” Another one said.

”While that is true, it is also true that these Divine-grade treasures are of the peak quality and an inheritance treasure for your sects. Surely, they must be worth more than an ordinary Divine-grade treasure sold in an auction house… Am I right?” Long Yijun said to them, refusing to lower the cost.

If he manages to sell these four Divine-grade treasures for 400,000 spirit stones, that would supply their sect for many years to come.

”You…!”

The four Sect Masters was speechless. As much as they wanted to refute Long Yijun's claims, they weren't in the position. After all, they must reclaim their sects' treasure at all cost, or their ancestors might curse them from their graves.
