Invincible Divine Sword-Chapter 195 - Green Lotus Sword Deity
Chapter 195: Chapter 195 Green Lotus Sword Deity
“No need,” Wang Zhou shook his head, “Killing him within the Imperial Capital is tricky to explain.”
After all, this was the Imperial Capital of the Divine Dragon Empire.
Moreover, Yang Xiaotian had an Emperor Realm Flood Dragon by his side, which would lead to too much disturbance if they took action.
“We’ll wait until the Empire’s Pharmacist Contest is over. He’ll have to leave the Imperial Capital eventually; then we can kill him without hurry.”
After handling the procedures at the commerce assembly, Yang Xiaotian and the others, holding the Azure Dragon Residence’s jade plaque, arrived at Azure Dragon Residence.
Gazing at the magnificent Azure Dragon Residence before them, everyone could hardly hide their amazement.
Yang Xiaotian used the jade plaque to open the Azure Dragon Residence. When everyone entered, a gentle breeze of spiritual energy caressed their faces, refreshing their spirits.
The residences in Tiandou Imperial City were indeed grand, but they were not on the same level as the one in front of them, the Azure Dragon Residence.

The Azure Dragon Residence was expansive; it took Yang Chao, Huang Ying, and Yang Xiaotian quite some time to explore it completely.
Looking at the residence before them, which seemed like the dwelling of immortals, Yang Chao and Huang Ying felt as if they were in a dream.
The two had never imagined that one day, they would live in such a grand residence in the Imperial Capital.
Thinking back to over two years ago, the two were still scraping money together to buy a house in Xingyue City, and even finding more than a thousand gold was challenging.
But now, they were living in such a grand residence in the Imperial Capital, with such rich spiritual energy and such luxurious decor.
The two were filled with emotions.
Thus, Yang Xiaotian and the others settled down in the Azure Dragon Residence.
That night, Yang Xiaotian lit a big bonfire in the front courtyard, and over twenty people sat together, drinking and eating meat.
The fragrance of the meat filled the air.
The aroma of the wine was enchanting.
Wu Qi took a sip of wine and smiled at Yang Xiaotian, “I wonder if the young master has ever tasted the Green Lotus Liquor from the Green Lotus Tavern?”
“Oh, Green Lotus Liquor?” Yang Xiaotian was curious.
Wu Qi nodded with a smile, “The Green Lotus Tavern is the largest tavern in our Empire, and its Green Lotus Liquor is said to be the finest liquor in the Empire, albeit a bit pricey.”
“The Green Lotus Liquor is categorized into four grades according to the year. The fourth grade Green Lotus Liquor is a bit cheaper, sold at ten thousand gold a pot.”
“The third grade Green Lotus Liquor costs fifty thousand gold a pot.”
“The second grade Green Lotus Liquor is expensive, costing one hundred thousand gold a pot. As for the first grade, it costs a million gold a pot.”
Upon hearing this, Yang Chao clicked his tongue, “A million gold a pot!”
Wu Qi laughed, “Although it’s a million gold a pot, it’s still in short supply. Plus, they only sell a hundred pots each day; once sold out, you can’t buy anymore and have to wait until the next day.”
He said to Yang Xiaotian, “The Green Lotus Tavern has quite a reputation; it was established by Li Dong, the chief disciple of the Green Lotus Sword Deity.”
“The Green Lotus Sword Deity!” The crowd was startled.
The Green Lotus Sword Deity was the most legendary and top-tier powerhouse in the Azure God Continent.
“Yes,” Wu Qi said, “Legend has it that when the Green Lotus Sword Deity was young, he was fortunate enough to receive pointers from Divine Master Hong Feng. Because of this, he was able to attain the status of a Sword Deity.”
“Master, is Divine Master Hong Feng not the number one powerhouse in the Martial Soul World?” Liu An asked with a face full of reverence.
Wu Qi just smiled and didn’t directly answer the question. He said, “In previous Empire Pharmacist Contests, disciples from the Green Lotus Tavern have participated. In this Pharmacist Contest, there should also be participants from the Green Lotus Tavern.”
He continued, “In the last Empire Pharmacist Contest, Li Jianghu from the Green Lotus Tavern won the second place. It is just unknown who from the Green Lotus Tavern will participate this time.”
“Li Jianghu,” Yang Xiaotian murmured.
“Yes, Li Jianghu is the grandson of the Senior Li Dong,” Wu Qi said, “Li Jianghu’s Martial Dao talent and Alchemy talent are both exceptional, on par with Fang Heng.”
Yang Xiaotian nodded. Since the Green Lotus Sword Deity was a nominal disciple of Divine Master Hong Feng, in terms of seniority, he would be the Deity’s junior brother.
The founder of Green Lotus Tavern, Li Dong, was his junior nephew!
Li Honghu referred to the Green Lotus Sword Deity as Great Grandmaster.
So what should they call him?
The group chatted until late into the night before dispersing.
Yang Xiaotian stood in his own courtyard, lost in a myriad of thoughts.
The night passed without incident.
The next day, while Yang Xiaotian was practicing Thunderclap Nine Heavens, Qingluo came in to report the information she had gathered.
“Young master, I’ve found out. The Xueluo Commerce Assembly is auctioning off Sixth Realm Tribulation Thunder Water and only accepts top-grade Spirit Stones for bidding,” Luo Qing said.
“Auctioning the Sixth Realm Tribulation Thunder Water and only top-grade Spirit Stones can be used for bidding?” Yang Xiaotian was surprised.
“Yes, the starting bid is ten thousand top-grade Spirit Stones, and each increment must be no less than one hundred top-grade Spirit Stones,” Luo Qing continued with a complex expression.
Ten thousand top-grade Spirit Stones, what concept was that?
Their current Azure Dragon Residence only had a dozen or so top-grade Spirit Stones.
That amounted to nearly a thousand Azure Dragon Residences.
And that was just the starting bid for the Sixth Realm Tribulation Thunder Water.
Yang Xiaotian was equally astonished; he hadn’t expected the starting bid to be ten thousand top-grade Spirit Stones.
Ten thousand top-grade Spirit Stones were probably beyond the reach of a regular Supreme Sect of the Empire.
Only the top ten Supreme Sects, like the Sky-Stepping Sect, Ancient Divine Palace, True Dragon Divine Sect, and Subduing Dragon Sword Sect, had the enormous wealth to afford it.
“What about the other items?” Yang Xiaotian asked.
“For the other items, lower-grade Spirit Stones are needed,” Luo Qing said. “Oh, young master, this auction will also feature the True Dragon Bead.”
True Dragon Bead!
That was an unexpected piece of good news.
If the Azure Thunder Python and the Black Flood Dragon King could obtain a True Dragon Bead, they might have a chance at ancestral reversal.
Then, the Azure Thunder Python’s bloodline could evolve into a Super Divine Beast.
And the Black Flood Dragon King’s bloodline could evolve into a Divine Beast.
Soon after, Yang Xiaotian inquired about the Empire’s Pharmacist Competition.
“This Empire Pharmacist Competition is open to all pharmacists below the Martial Venerable level,” Luo Qing said. “Disciples from the Empire’s top ten Supreme Sects will participate.”
“The competition this time will be extremely fierce, with the most noteworthy contenders being Gu Shaozong from Ancient Divine Palace, Long Xingtian from Sky-Stepping Sect, Wu Chuang from Mahayana Divine Sect, Lan Yi from Subduing Dragon Sword Sect, and Li Qianqian from Green Lotus Tavern.”
“Lan Yi!” Yang Xiaotian hadn’t expected Lan Yi from Subduing Dragon Sword Sect to also participate in the Empire Pharmacist Competition.
He could never forget the arrogance and disdain displayed by Jiu Wu and his apprentice Lan Yi when they looked down upon the common folk in Divine Sword City.
“Yes, Lan Yi, who possesses the Blue Lotus Flame, ranking tenth on the Abnormal Fire List,” Luo Qing said. “However, the most likely to win the competition isn’t Lan Yi, but Gu Shaozong from the Ancient Divine Palace.”
“Gu Shaozong possesses the Heaven Burning Flame, which is ranked seventh on the Abnormal Fire List.”
Yang Xiaotian frowned, “Heaven Burning Flame.”
“Indeed, Gu Shaozong’s talent in Alchemy is so high that even Grand Hall Master Shi Yongping has praised him,” Luo Qing said. “It’s rumored that he has also obtained the Pharmacopoeia of Medicine God.”
The Pharmacopoeia of Medicine God was a legendary tome of Alchemy.
“The Pharmacopoeia of Medicine God,” Yang Xiaotian echoed thoughtfully and then asked, “Is there any news about my sister?”
