Transmigrated Scoundrel's Exchange System
chapter-171

The emperor was furious at the thought of someone daring to rob a respected merchant in his kingdom. He looked at Crown Prince Tianyu and ordered him to ensure that the auction house was well protected with the support of the royal guards.

Crown Prince agreed, pledging to take care of the matter personally.

The emperor was not merely being generous; the gifts that Han Dai had brought were exactly what the Spirit Harmony Immortal ancestors of the royal family needed. These gifts would significantly aid the ancestors in their cultivation. Gold and money could be ignored, but cultivation materials as precious as these could not be overlooked.

Han Dai thanked the emperor, bowed, and took his leave. The following day, the Khaleesi Auction House found itself under the protection of royal guards. Even the Khaleesi Inn received the protection of the royal family.

Zhang Feng, the Void Immortal leader of the Crimson Serpents in the Mystic Sky Kingdom, and Wu Xian, the Void Immortal leader of the Aurelian Dragons in the Mystic Sky Kingdom, were both informed by Huang and Shen family members about the royal family's protection of the Khaleesi Auction House. The news traveled quickly through the intricate network of spies and informants employed by both factions, reaching their leaders in a matter of hours. This information significantly altered the strategic landscape, forcing them to reassess their plans to rob the auction house and weigh the consequences of their actions.

Upon learning of the royal family's involvement in the security of the Khaleesi Auction House, both Zhang Feng and Wu Xian held emergency meetings with their respective advisors. They discussed the implications of the royal family's protection and the potential repercussions of any hostile actions they might take against the auction house. While both factions had initially entertained the idea of attempting to steal the divine-grade weapon, this new development raised the stakes significantly, forcing them to reconsider their approach.

With this new development, neither faction could risk attempting to rob the auction house. Doing so would make an enemy of the royal family prematurely, which was not a desirable outcome. The balance of power within the Mystic Sky Kingdom was delicate, and both factions were acutely aware of the need to maintain a facade of loyalty and subservience to the ruling dynasty. They were still vying for control of the royal family and could not afford to turn them into adversaries until they had exhausted all other options. Thus, they had no choice but to participate in the auction and bid for the divine-grade weapon. This change in strategy required a shift in focus and resources as both factions began to amass wealth and influence to ensure their success in the auction.

While both factions prepared for the auction, the emperor had the gifts delivered to the Spirit Harmony Immortal ancestor of the royal family. In his message to the ancestor, the emperor made it clear that gifts were from merchants of the kingdom who wanted the protection of the royal family during the auction of Divine-grade weapon.

Han Cai's father was busy gaining favors from the royal family after settling the auction house, and Han Cai focused on another project.

Every midnight, Han Cai would go to the highest floor of the inn, settle down in a room, and have Yonginan stand guard at the door to ensure no disturbances occurred.

Once settled, Han Cai brought out his precious silver flute, which now had a divine glow.

As soon as he had enough trading points, Han Cai took care of his flute, restoring it to its original state as a divine weapon.

He scanned his flute:

Object: Silver Whisperer

» Attributes: Divine Grade Treasure

[Special Characteristic: Silver Whisperer is a divine-grade treasure with a rich history. Once belonging to the True Venerable Xiao, the flute was crafted from pure mystic spirit silver and is adorned with intricate engravings of celestial beings and beasts. Its smooth, polished surface feels cool to the touch, and it is imbued with a small amount of celestial Qi of resonance, making it an incredibly powerful weapon.

As a divine weapon, it is not limited to the laws of the world. The flute can be used in various ways. When played, the Silver Whisperer produces melodious sounds that can soothe the mind, calm the soul, and purify the environment, dispelling negative energy. However, when played with the intent to harm, the flute emits a sorrowful tune that weakens the enemy's spiritual energy, inflicts mental demons, creates illusions, and can even destroy their minds and cultivation. The Silver Whisperer can also grant the user control over the hearts and minds of listeners. The flute's sound can shatter donations. It can also shatter or damage other spirits of weapons through its sound. The user can control who hears its sound—contracted with Han Cai.

Whoever wants to subdue the flute will have to kill Han Cai to become the flute's master.]

After Scanning, his beautiful precious Han Cai began playing his flute. Surprisingly no one in Jade Sky City or Mystic Sky Kingdom heard the sound of flute.

But far away from Mystic Sky, in the northeast of Wu Country, nestled among towering peaks and surrounded by lush, verdant forests, there existed a very famous sect known as the Divine Mountain Sect. The sect's majestic construction and commanding appearance, perched atop one of the tallest hills, were testaments to its prominent rank. This illustrious sect was known for generating extraordinary cultivators who were admired for their knowledge of numerous cultivation techniques as well as their combat skills. The Divine Mountain Sect had enormous power in the region, and its followers were sought after by great clans and groups across the realm.

It was within the hallowed halls of the Divine Mountain Sect that the renowned Grand Diviner Xiong resided. His fame and accomplishments were legendary, as he had not only made significant contributions to the sect but he had also advised numerous rulers and prominent figures across Wu Country. Grand Diviner Xiong was the most respected diviner in the whole of Wu Country, and some even considered him the best diviner in the entire Daxing Continent. His predictions were known for their accuracy and insight, making him an invaluable resource to those who sought his guidance.
