Emperor Qiankun

When Li Qingyuan returned to the town, night had already fallen quietly.

He found the largest shop in Heishan Town - Treasure Pavilion.

The pavilion is still brightly lit at this time, like a shining pearl inlaid in the night.

Standing outside the Treasure Pavilion, you can see that it is crowded and bustling inside.

Many wealthy people dressed in luxurious clothes were walking between the treasure displays, carefully selecting the items they liked;

Meanwhile, those mercenaries with fierce looks on their faces were busy replenishing the supplies needed for the battle.

Li Qingyuan stepped in.

At this time, a young girl came up to them from the store. She was about twenty years old, wearing a lavender long dress, and had a petite figure, like a little loli.

At this moment, a sweet smile appeared on her face, and she asked softly, "Little brother, are you buying or selling treasures?"

Hearing this name, Li Qingyuan couldn't help but mutter inwardly: "What little brother? I'm obviously already big enough!"

However, he did not show it.

The corners of his mouth turned up, revealing a row of snow-white teeth. His eyes narrowed into slits, and he smiled at the girl in front of him and said, "Sister, I want to sell the yak carcass. How much can it fetch?"

As he spoke, he pointed to the bulging big sack beside him.

"Yak? A yak this big must be a second-level monster. Did you kill it yourself?"

The loli girl looked at him in surprise, her eyes full of curiosity.

Li Qingyuan quickly shook his head and replied with a smile: "Of course not! My father killed it and asked me to bring it here to sell it."

"Oh, I see. Well, open the bag and I'll help you calculate how much these are worth."

After listening to his explanation, the loli girl nodded.

Li Qingyuan deftly untied the bag, then reached in and pulled out several large yak bones. He hugged them tightly in his arms, muttering, "The rest can be settled."

Seeing this, the loli girl couldn't help but feel puzzled and asked, "What are you doing holding these bones?"

Li Qingyuan blinked and answered seriously, "I'm going to take it home to make soup. Not only are the bones delicious, but they're also very nourishing!"

After saying that, he couldn't help licking his lips, as if he couldn't wait to taste the delicious yak bone soup.

"Hehe, you little guy, you really are a smart kid!"

The loli girl giggled at his cute appearance.

Then, the petite and cute loli girl began to carefully calculate the price of these yaks.

In less than an incense stick's time, she had finished the settlement. She raised her head, looked at Li Qingyuan, and said softly, "It's a total of one thousand coins. Do you think this price is okay?"

Li Qingyuan originally estimated that these yaks could be sold for about 800 coins at most, but now the price has increased a lot, so he is naturally happy.

He quickly nodded and agreed: "Sure! No problem."

Then, he couldn't wait to ask, "Sister, can I use this money to exchange for some pills?"

The loli girl smiled and replied, "Of course, we have all kinds of elixirs in our Treasure Pavilion. What kind of elixir do you want?"

"I want a marrow cleansing pill, a wall-breaking pill, and I want to exchange the remaining money for Xuanyuan pills." These three kinds of pills are exactly what Li Qingyuan urgently needs for his current cultivation.

Among them, the Marrow Cleansing Pill can purify the practitioner's bone marrow and meridians, remove impurities from the body, and thus effectively improve the practitioner's physique and potential;

The Wall-Breaking Pill is specifically used to assist practitioners in breaking through realms. After taking it, it can significantly increase the success rate of breaking through realms;

The Xuanyuan Pill is a must-have item for daily practice, which can help practitioners continuously improve their own cultivation.

"Well, okay, we have all these kinds of pills here. Please wait here for a moment, I will go up and get them for you." The loli girl said with a smile, turned and walked towards the second floor.

Not long after, I heard a burst of hurried footsteps. It turned out to be a loli girl walking down in a hurry.

She came to Li Qingyuan, stretched out a hand, and in her palm was a small and exquisite space bag. She then gently handed it to Li Qingyuan and said, "Little brother, everything you want is in it! One Marrow Cleansing Pill, one Wall Breaking Pill, and ten Xuanyuan Pills. Among them, the price of the Marrow Cleansing Pill is 200 coins each, and the Wall Breaking Pill is a little more expensive, 300 coins each. As for the Xuanyuan Pill, it's only 50 coins each. Adding up, it's a total of 1,000 coins, which is exactly the same as the value of the yak you sold us. In addition, this space bag is also given to you for free~"

Li Qingyuan quickly put the space bag into his arms, said thank you politely, then turned around and left the Treasure Pavilion holding the yak bones.

His heart felt like it was scratched by a cat, and he couldn't wait to go home so that he could use these precious pills to improve his strength.

......

The moon was at its zenith and the stars were shining brightly when Li Qingyuan returned home.

He went straight back to his room, his soul entered the time gate of the Qiankun Hall, and sat steadily on the cushion.

Li Qingyuan carefully took out the space bag from his arms. He first took out a small box with the words "Marrow Cleansing Pill" printed on it. He wanted to refine this Marrow Cleansing Pill first to remove the impurities in his body.

He gently opened the box, and a round marrow cleansing pill appeared before his eyes.

He swallowed it into his mouth without hesitation, and the pill instantly turned into a warm current, flowing down his throat.

After a moment, Li Qingyuan felt his whole body was hot, as if countless ants were gnawing at his bones and meridians.

He closed his eyes tightly, mobilized his profound energy, and guided the medicinal power to flow through his body.

As time went by, the pain intensified like a tide, but he always gritted his teeth and persevered.

Finally, the effect of the medicine was fully released, and his body oozed out layers of black impurities like a cicada shedding its shell, emitting a disgusting and foul smell.

Li Qingyuan opened his eyes, felt the changes in his body, and a hint of joy appeared on his face.

He felt that his body had become much lighter and his meridians were more unobstructed.

Immediately afterwards, Li Qingyuan left the Qiankun Hall and went to the yard to get a large bucket of water. He jumped into the bucket and washed himself carefully.

After washing three times, Li Qingyuan finally felt that the bad smell on his body was gone.

He returned to his room, lay on the bed and thought about what he was going to do tomorrow before falling asleep.

......

next day

Li Qingyuan walked into the main house of the Li family, holding the yak bones in his arms.

When Li Changtian and Gusu Rou saw these yak bones, expressions of astonishment appeared on their faces.

Gusu Rou asked curiously, "Yuan'er, how did you get these bones?"

Li Qingyuan calmly replied, "It's like this, Dad and Mom. Yesterday, I encountered a group of sect disciples working together to kill a yak in Dahei Mountain. After killing the yak, they looted the yak meat and other valuables and left. I happened to see them and took the opportunity to pick up these bones."

He knew that his parents were worried about his safety, so he chose to tell a white lie to conceal the truth.

He prayed that this excuse would fool them.

Gusu Rou smiled and nodded after hearing this, saying softly, "You're quite lucky then! In that case, I'll use these yak bones to make you a delicious bone soup at noon today to nourish you."

Li Qingyuan was overjoyed when he heard this and quickly said with a smile, "Great! I love bone soup the most!"

He knew that Gusu Rou's cooking skills were first-rate, and the soup made with these fresh yak bones must be extremely delicious.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help swallowing.
