Chapter 134: Chapter 134: Misjudgment

But instead, it was a… young man!

The elder and the girl in the pink dress were both stunned.

The one who made the move was not Huang Zhantian, but rather a young man who was excessively young!

Was the terrifying strike just now really done by this young man before them?

Jiang Fan watched the two in front of him with some dread.

Especially this elder.

Just now, he witnessed the elder’s strike from afar, gravely injuring the White Crystal Beast almost to death.

He knew very well how resilient the White Crystal Beast was.

No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t inflict fatal damage on it!

Yet the elder had nonchalantly flicked his horsetail whisk and almost killed it!

This power was horrifyingly high!

Just as he didn’t know how to speak, the elder took the lead and asked, “Who are you?”

Jiang Fan thought for a moment, then took out paper and pen, writing down “Green Cloud Sect” in three characters.

To avoid revealing more, he decided to revert to his old ways, continuing to pretend to be mute.

“Impossible!”

The girl said definitively, “Since when does the Green Cloud Sect have a disciple as powerful as you?”

“To injure the White Crystal Beast like that, and then slice it in two with a single strike, I doubt even some elders could manage that!”

The elder scrutinized Jiang Fan, pondering aloud, “Could it be that you are a newly promoted elder of the Green Cloud Sect?”

He had heard that the Soul Master of the Green Cloud Sect was fond of concocting Spirit Pills for longevity and beauty.

Could this youth before him actually be a middle-aged elder who had taken such pills?

Only such an explanation could account for his youthful appearance and ridiculously strong power.

Jiang Fan was taken aback for a moment.

Nice fellow, he hadn’t even thought of an explanation yet.

The elder had explained it to him.

Jiang Fan nodded and penned, “Yes, that’s correct.”

“May I ask who you are?”

To avoid further questions, he inquired back.

The elder smiled, flicking his horsetail whisk and said, “That you do not recognize me confirms you are a newly promoted elder.”

“I am You Yunzi, one of the four Vice Pavilion Masters of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.”

What?

Jiang Fan’s heart shook, nearly crying out in surprise.

To think he had run into such a significant figure!

No wonder he was so formidable, injuring the Beast King with a mere flick of the whisk!

He quickly bowed in salute.

The girl in the pink dress eyed him skeptically, “A newly promoted elder so young?”

“How is your swordsmanship so powerful?”

She scanned Jiang Fan, curious when she noticed a sword wrapped in cloth on his back.

Just as she was about to inquire further, You Yunzi chided softly, “Do not be rude!”

“It is a grave taboo to pry into others’ martial skills!”

He then bowed slightly to Jiang Fan, “This is Nangong Xiaoyun. She is young and lacks decorum, please do not mind her words.”

What martial artist doesn’t have their own secrets?

It is quite impolite to rashly inquire into others’ martial origins.

Fortunately, the elder was understanding, sparing Jiang Fan some trouble.

Jiang Fan nodded, writing, “This Beast King was slain by the elder. It should rightfully belong to the elder. However, could I request to take the Monster Core with me?”

He knew his place.

Without You Yunzi’s intervention, his chances of slaying the White Crystal Beast were almost zero.

Even if the elder claimed it, he would have no complaints.

You Yunzi appeared pleased.

This alone showed that this young elder of the Green Cloud Sect was of good character and not someone greedy and overly ambitious.

So, he generously smiled and waved, “You can have it; I don’t need it.”

Jiang Fan was overjoyed.

Bowing, he immediately retrieved his Black Sword, skillfully piercing the abdomen of the White Crystal Beast.

After a few twists, he extracted a snow-white pill pearl the size of a fist.

Sure enough, it was a complete Core Formation Realm Monster Core!

The Monster Core of the Core Formation Realm could not only be used to forge artifacts but also to refine Spirit Pills to break through the Core Formation Realm!

It was a priceless treasure worth ten thousand crystals!

Happily wiping off the blood, he tucked it into his pouch.

Seeing this, Nangong Xiaoyun was displeased.

She had been scolded while he got all the benefits.

“Vice Pavilion Master, I also want to take some materials from the Beast King!” Nangong Xiaoyun puffed her cheeks, humming in displeasure.

You Yunzi chuckled, “Are you short of money?”

As the Proud Daughter of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, any resource she needed was at her fingertips.

Did she really need to sell Demon Beast materials for money?

“I want it!” Nangong Xiaoyun stomped her delicate jade foot, pouting angrily.

You Yunzi, helpless, said, “Go ahead, go ahead. The Beast King of Hundred Beasts Mountain seems quite rare; it might be worth something.”

This Beast King was a rare breed.

Those who hadn’t specifically researched Demon Beasts might not recognize its species.

You Yunzi had merely heard that the Beast Kings of Hundred Beasts Mountain had an extraordinary origin.

Nangong Xiaoyun, with a sense of competition, approached the two halves of the corpse.

She also wanted to find some valuable materials.

But when she got there, she was at a loss.

The enormous demon beast’s body had many valuable and valueless parts, but she couldn’t tell which was which.

She focused on the white hairs, each like steel needles, and particularly hard.

Her eyes lit up, “So hard, they must be good material for making Defensive Magical Artifacts, definitely valuable!”

So, without further thought, she hurriedly plucked out several white hairs.

Jiang Fan was speechless.

He had planned to take the wolf hairs himself.

But since the White Crystal Beast was slain by the Vice Pavilion Master You Yunzi, and his disciple also wanted a share, he couldn’t complain.

Fortunately, he had studied the White Crystal Beast in detail from a book.

He knew the white hairs were just one of the valuable materials on it.

There were even more valuable parts elsewhere.

He approached the head of the White Crystal Beast.

Focusing on its emerald green eyes, he revealed a fervent look.

The book noted that the eyes of the White Crystal Beast were the most valuable part of its body.

This pair of eyeballs, with a little refining, became naturally High Grade Magical Artifacts—Gale Pearls!

Wearing them, one would feel the wind always at their back, enabling them to leap ten zhang in a single step.

If combined with Solitary Wild Goose Shadow, even at its peak, the White Crystal Beast wouldn’t outrun Jiang Fan!

He immediately gouged out the two eyeballs.

Infusing them with Spiritual Power, a black whirlwind instantly enveloped him.

Just like when the White Crystal Beast launched “Death Shadow.”

With a light step, he leaped ten zhang away in an instant!

Anyone who didn’t know better would think it was the legendary Immortal Technique, Shrinking Land into Inches!

You Yunzi, who had remained composed with his hands inside his sleeves, was startled by the sudden instantaneous movement!

He couldn’t help but exclaim, “What cultivation technique is this?”

With his keen eyes, he quickly discerned that it wasn’t actual instantaneous movement nor Shrinking Land into Inches!

Rather, Jiang Fan’s speed was so extreme it was almost imperceptible.

But soon, he noticed the two emerald green eyeballs in Jiang Fan’s hands.

After thinking for a moment, his old eyes widened, “Gale Pearls? Those highly sought-after Gale Pearls!”

Looking again at the body of the White Crystal Beast, he exclaimed, “Is this a White Crystal Beast?”

“It possesses the bloodline of the Demon Emperor!”

“One of the most valuable demon beasts!”

Even a chunk of its flesh was worth a fortune!

Those two eyeballs were priceless treasures!

The last time they appeared ten years ago, they sold for a sky-high price of ten thousand crystals!

Even as a Vice Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, such an astounding treasure was hard not to covet!

Watching Jiang Fan happily pocket the two eyeballs, he hurriedly raised his hand to stop him.

But realizing it was he who had given the demon beast to Jiang Fan, he reluctantly withdrew his hand.

Helplessly watching Jiang Fan tuck the Gale Pearls into his bosom, he felt pain as if wanting to gouge out his old eyes.

How could he have misjudged the value of this Beast King?
