A blind man cultivates immortality and witnesses the great secret of the holy maiden in her bridal c

Qin Yuwei waved to Chen Yang, jumped onto the carriage, and headed straight for the capital.

Sitting in the carriage, Qin Yuwei sighed deeply, feeling somewhat annoyed. She couldn't help but mutter, "What a huge loss! I never expected to lose my innocence here after coming to Qingzhou City. Why is my life so miserable..."

Qin Yuwei muttered to herself, counting on her fingers: "This time I came to Qingzhou City, I got my revenge, and I even took care of that cunning Senior Brother Jiang Zhen; now I've also acquired six mid-grade magic artifacts, which I can sell back at Tianbao Pavilion to boost my sales; I was so happy when I was detoxifying, I've never been so happy before; and finally, my strength has increased, I feel like I'll be entering the Golden Body Realm soon..."

The more Qin Yuwei counted on her fingers, the happier she became.

As she pondered the matter, she suddenly realized that she seemed to have suffered no losses at all, but rather gained all the benefits!

Qin Yuwei perked up immediately. She suddenly realized that there was no need for her to be depressed at all. This trip to Qingzhou City was a huge success!

Qin Yuwei chuckled, then thought of Chen Yang again, feeling a pang of reluctance: she wondered if she would ever see this man again in this lifetime…

Chen Yang was not as sentimental as Qin Yuwei. He strode back to the city lord's mansion and found Meng Shuang.

Chen Yang said to Meng Shuang, "Shuang'er, organize the City Lord's mansion and its properties, as well as the Ma family's mansion and all their properties, and auction them off for spirit stones only!"

Meng Shuang nodded and said, "Young Master, are you not even leaving yourself a place to stay?"

Chen Yang waved his hand and said, "What do I need a place to stay? A true man roams the world; spirit stones are more important than a place to live! Go and arrange it!"

Meng Shuang smiled and nodded, then said, "By the way, young master, last night, someone from the Eastern Depot delivered the city lord's order."

As she spoke, Mengshuang went back into the house and soon returned with a box, which she handed to Chen Yang.

Chen Yang opened the box, revealing a purple-gold token. The front of the token read "Lord of Qingzhou City," while the back showed Chen Yang's name and a simple portrait.

Meng Shuang chuckled and said, "Young Master, now you are the true Lord of Qingzhou City! Moreover, the people from the Eastern Depot said that with this Lord's token, you can stay in a special Lord's guesthouse when you go to the capital, and you can freely enter and leave the palace!"

Chen Yang nodded and said, "This thing is actually quite useful."

Inside the box was also the seal of the city lord of Qingzhou.

Chen Yang handed the seal to Meng Shuang and said, "Perfect! Now that we have the seal, auctioning off the Ma family's and the City Lord's Mansion's properties is perfectly legitimate. Go and get it done!"

Meng Shuang immediately took action.

Chen Yang returned to the Liu family and first checked his system panel.

After thinking it over carefully, he sighed, "There are still too many places to spend money. These three high-grade magic artifacts are very useful, but unfortunately, upgrading them consumes too many spirit stones."

Chen Yang was reluctant to use spirit stones, so he looked at the several scrolls of cultivation techniques in his hand and decided to continue studying the Dragon-Capturing Palm.

Upon opening the Dragon-Capturing Palm manual once more, Chen Yang suddenly realized that he seemed to have a translator installed!

When I studied the Dragon-Capturing Palm before, I always felt confused and couldn't understand how the technique worked or how it could unleash the power of heaven and earth with a single palm strike.

Now, Chen Yang felt his mind was clear, and after just one look, he immediately gained some insights!

Chen Yang was overjoyed. He understood that his spiritual power must have been significantly enhanced after absorbing Xiao Daoyun's power!

This elite demon is indeed worlds apart from ordinary demons!

Chen Yang calmed down and continued to slowly study the Dragon-Capturing Palm.

In just one day and one night, the system emitted a "ding": "The Dragon-Capturing Palm technique has reached the entry level!"

Chen Yang opened the system and took a look.

It takes one hundred spirit stones to advance the Dragon Capturing Palm from beginner to intermediate level.

Seeing the number, Chen Yang breathed a sigh of relief and muttered, "Thank goodness, it only costs one hundred spirit stones. The Dragon-Capturing Palm is quite a powerful martial skill. When Xiao Daoyun used it before, it was not only extremely lethal but also very impressive—simply too cool!"

Without a second thought, Chen Yang immediately used spirit stones to upgrade his Dragon-Capturing Palm!

"Ding! Consuming 100 spirit stones, the Dragon-Capturing Palm martial skill has been upgraded to the minor completion stage!"

"Ding! Consuming 200 spirit stones, the Dragon-Capturing Palm martial skill has been upgraded to the Great Perfection stage!"

"Ding! Consuming 400 spirit stones, the Dragon-Capturing Palm martial skill has been upgraded to its peak stage!"

"Ding! Consuming 800 spirit stones, the Dragon-Capturing Palm martial skill has been upgraded to the Perfect Ultimate level!"

Chen Yang felt a sudden clarity in his mind, and his hands felt a surge of blood and energy!

He seemed to understand something, and gently pushed out a palm. The next moment, the wind and clouds gathered in the air ten meters away, and then a big palm slammed into the ground with a "boom"!

Chen Yang clenched his fist again, and sand and stones flew up and the wind and clouds churned ten meters away. A tree in the yard was grabbed by Chen Yang from a distance and broken in two!

Chen Yang couldn't help but nod: "This Dragon-Capturing Palm is indeed too powerful! Moreover, Xiao Daoyun was already very powerful after only cultivating it to its peak, while I have directly mastered it to the perfect and ultimate level. Not only can I unleash a terrifying palm strike, but I can also retrieve objects from a distance as easily as using my own limbs!"

Chen Yang nodded in satisfaction, then opened the Seven Injury Blood Fiend Fist manual his first wife had given him and began to read it.

The Seven Wounds Blood Fiend Fist is far more refined and powerful than the Dragon Capturing Palm, and of course, it is also much more difficult to master.

If Chen Yang hadn't absorbed Xiao Daoyun's energy before, it would have taken him at least half a month to study the Seven Injury Blood Fiend Fist to the beginner level.

Now, Chen Yang feels his mind has been opened up, and his understanding of the Seven Injury Blood Fiend Fist has improved rapidly!

One day later.

Chen Yang was still fully engrossed in studying the Seven Injury Blood Fiend Fist when Meng Shuang approached him, smiling, and said, "Young Master, the Ma family and the City Lord's Mansion, including their land, residences, and all their properties, have been auctioned off for a total of 3,600 spirit stones!"

Chen Yang accepted the 3,600 spirit stones from Meng Shuang, his face lighting up with joy. He exclaimed, "Well done, Shuang'er! I never imagined that these ordinary properties and residences could fetch so many spirit stones!"

Meng Shuang smiled and said, "Young Master, I think these properties are being sold too cheaply! After all, whether it's the Ma family or the City Lord's Mansion, they occupy good properties and good locations! This time you auctioned off their residences and properties, and several hidden rogue cultivators in Qingzhou City emerged, vying to bid! It's just that they have limited spirit stones, so they can only offer such high prices."

"If we were willing to buy ordinary gold and silver, we could definitely fetch an astronomical price!"

Chen Yang smiled and waved his hand, saying, "It's already very good. Ordinary gold and silver wouldn't be of much use to us."

"However, you're right. After this calamity in Qingzhou City, many rogue cultivators have become more ambitious."

"While the Qin family, the Ma family, and the City Lord's Mansion are gone, they're probably vying to become the second most powerful family in Qingzhou City."

"However, after this incident, I estimate that there aren't many spirit stones left in the entire Qingzhou City."

Meng Shuang covered her mouth and laughed, saying, "Of course! You've collected all the spirit stones in the entire Qingzhou City!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang sighed inwardly, knowing that Meng Shuang was right.

Indeed, it's impossible to continue earning more spirit stones in Qingzhou City.

I've basically taken everything from this place.

It can be said that apart from the Liu family, which still has some resources, the other families and independent cultivators are all penniless.
