Chapter 63: Chapter 63: We Can’t Get Them to Help
"The Purple Gold Profound Fire Armor naturally belongs to your senior brother."
Mo Qing nodded with a smile, then continued, "You broke the rules of the Artifact Refining Pavilion, given your young age and voluntary acceptance of punishment, this elder will penalize you by forbidding you from entering the Artifact Refining Pavilion for the next six months."
"Thank you, Steward Elder." Gu Chenfeng cupped his fist in gratitude.
Zuo Qingyang and the other two let out a sigh of relief.
The Ancient Divine Sect is far from the Imperial City, not to mention six months, even a year might not see a single visit.
This punishment, for Gu Chenfeng, is virtually nothing.
Mo Qing nodded and then disappeared in an instant.
"Let’s go, to the third floor," Zuo Qingyang softly said, directly ignoring Ouyang Chu and his group.
"Little brat, just you wait." Lin Yan said with a playful cold smile, his eyes filled with malicious killing intent.
"Alright." Gu Chenfeng replied with a harmless smile.
Nangong Jiao glared angrily at Gu Chenfeng’s group, fiercely saying, "I won’t let you go!"
"I don’t care how the Artifact Refining Pavilion punishes you, I’m curious to see how you plan to leave the Imperial City alive." Ouyang Chu thought coldly to himself, the corner of his mouth curling into a dangerous smile.
As long as Gu Chenfeng and his group were still in the Artifact Refining Pavilion, Ouyang Chu was absolutely confident he could kill them.
"Jiao’er, let’s go." Ouyang Chu said with a chuckle, turning to leave, while transmitting a message, "Lin Yan, go back immediately and have someone keep an eye on them."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yan was exhilarated, excitedly replied, "Brother Ouyang, are you planning to take them out? I must kill that brat! The battle armor must not fall into their hands."
"Just don’t let them run away," Ouyang Chu transmitted with a laugh, then left with Nangong Jiao, showing no interest in the spiritual artifact battle armor.
Before long.
Led by a maid, Gu Chenfeng and his group arrived on the third floor.
"Senior Brother, Ouyang Chu and his group won’t let this go easily. With both great families in the Imperial City, our situation is extremely dangerous," Bai Tu whispered with a frown, deeply worried.
"I know." Zuo Qingyang nodded gravely, "With Uncle Tian Kui not here, we have to rely on ourselves. I’ll do my best to hold off Ouyang Chu, you must take Junior Brother away, we can’t let anything happen to him."
"Okay." Bai Tu nodded.
Though their conversation was quiet, Gu Chenfeng heard it, feeling deeply moved.
Compared to the fake sentiments of the Lingyun Sect’s disciples, and the cold-blooded sect leader and elders, Zuo Qingyang and Bai Tu truly cared for Gu Chenfeng.
Gu Chenfeng thought to himself, "Ouyang Chu knows we come from the Ancient Divine Sect, yet he still dares to harbor murderous intent, it seems the power of both great families is formidable."
"Senior Brother has been enduring, presumably to avoid offending Ouyang Chu, knowing what the consequences could be."
The strength of the two great families is tremendous, escape seems nearly impossible with their power.
After pondering for a while, Gu Chenfeng’s lips curved slightly, thinking, "No matter how strong the two great families are, in front of the Artifact Refining Pavilion, they’re nothing but ants."
"This way, please." The maid respectfully said, "Here we have various spiritual artifact magical treasures, for speed enhancements, attack power enhancements, healing, and many other types of magical treasures."
The third floor also housed spiritual artifacts, but it boasted a dazzling array of various magical treasures.
Gu Chenfeng couldn’t help but exclaim, "As expected of the Artifact Refining Pavilion, there’s more here than at the Ancient God Mountain Commerce Association."
Zuo Qingyang chuckled lightly, "Most of the spiritual artifacts at the Ancient God Mountain Commerce Association also come from the Artifact Refining Pavilion."
"The young master is correct." The maid laughed softly, "Compared to the Ancient God Mountain Commerce Association, the prices of spiritual artifacts are much cheaper at the Artifact Refining Pavilion."
"Here are the spiritual artifact magical treasures that enhance attack power, available in all Five Elements Attributes, including Wind Attribute, you can take your time to choose."
"Thank you." Liu Qingqing smiled and thanked as she happily began to select.
Soon after.
Liu Qingqing was fond of a piece of spiritual artifact pendant.
"Water Attribute Jade Pendant, I just love it," Liu Qingqing said with a happy smile, unable to put it down.
But when Liu Qingqing saw the price of the spiritual artifact, her pretty face’s smile froze instantly.
"This pendant costs one million crystal stones?" Liu Qingqing was taken aback, her eyes nearly bulging out.
Shocked, Liu Qingqing looked at the prices of other spiritual artifacts.
Stunned by what she saw, she was at a loss for words.
"Eight hundred thousand crystal stones! One million crystal stones! Five hundred thousand crystal stones! Three million..." Liu Qingqing was dumbfounded, almost unable to breathe from the shock.
The staggering prices were far higher than Liu Qingqing had imagined.
"This is way too expensive, isn’t it?" Zuo Qingyang and Bai Tu were dumbstruck.
Gu Chenfeng was also shocked by the exorbitant prices, wondering how many people could afford such a cost?
The maid said with a soft smile, "Ordinary spiritual artifact magical treasures or weapons generally cost around three hundred thousand crystal stones, while those that enhance attack power are relatively more expensive."
"The higher the grade of the spiritual artifact, the more costly it is. A Wind Attribute spiritual artifact requires thirty million crystal stones."
"Thirty million..." Zuo Qingyang and the others were dumbstruck.
"Senior Brother, we should leave." Liu Qingqing said with an awkward smile, being frightfully priced out of purchasing despite any fondness.
"Junior Sister, I have two hundred eighty thousand crystal stones here, I can give them to you," Zuo Qingyang quickly said, knowing Liu Qingqing really liked that pendant.
"Senior Sister, I have three thousand crystal stones left..." Bai Tu scratched his head awkwardly, as he had just purchased a battle armor.
Gu Chenfeng had just joined the Ancient Divine Sect, only collecting his first month’s stipend of thirty crystal stones, completely broke.
"Forget it, let’s go, we’ll come back next time," Liu Qingqing smiled slightly, decisively turning away, as everything combined didn’t suffice.
"Senior Sister, wait." Gu Chenfeng quickly stopped her, smiling lightly, "Finished spiritual artifacts are indeed expensive, but purchasing artifact refining materials can be much cheaper."
"Purchasing artifact refining materials?" Liu Qingqing and the other two were stunned.
Zuo Qingyang then chuckled bitterly, "Junior Brother, you’re being too naive, we don’t have an artifact refiner, and it’s very difficult to refine a magical treasure that enhances attack power."
Bai Tu shook his head with a wry smile, "Junior Brother, to refine a magical treasure with attack attributes, it requires at least a Fifth Grade Artifact Refiner, the refining materials aren’t expensive, but we don’t know any Fifth Grade Artifact Refiners."
"Doesn’t the Artifact Refining Pavilion have such a person?" Gu Chenfeng said with a faint smile.
"We can’t afford to invite them," Zuo Qingyang shrugged with a smile, "Even the Sect Leader couldn’t invite them, Artifact Refining Pavillion’s refiners are busy, they won’t have time to refine for us."
"I have a way." Gu Chenfeng smiled slightly.
Liu Qingqing’s eyes sparkled, immediately asking, "What way?"
Zuo Qingyang asked in surprise, "Junior Brother, are you serious? Do you really have a way?"
The maid beside them also looked at Gu Chenfeng in astonishment, wondering if this young kid could really make Artifact Refining Pavilion’s refiners craft for him? Was it just his imagination running wild?
