Chapter 350 – Five Million

“Well, let me wash my face first.” Lan Xuanyu said and hung up the communication.

When he came to the bathroom and was about to wash himself, he saw himself in the mirror.

After staring stupidly, Lan Xuanyu rubbed his eyes.

Looking at his reflection In the mirror, he seemed to have undergone some changes. His skin had become a bit fairer, especially his eyes, which had become deep and shiny. Deep inside his dark eyes, there was a faintly rainbow-colored halo glowing. When he tried to look at it more intently, It could easily be seen that the colors deep inside were blooming outward.

Rainbow-colored eyes? Isn’t that too ridiculous ?

Lan Xuanyu hurriedly closed off his mind, and the color in his eyes faded away.

Taking a deep breath, the expression on Lan Xuanyu’s face also recovered somewhat. After hurriedly rinsing himself, he changed into a clean school uniform before leaving the dormitory.

Qian Lei had been waiting outside since early morning, and he looked radiant, not at all the appearance of someone who hadn’t slept at all.

“Where is Frenzie? You didn’t call him?” Lan Xuanyu asked.

Qian Lei said: “Called him. He said he is very tired, so he won’t go with us.”

“Ok.” Lan Xuanyu remembered that Liu Feng had overexerted himself too much last night. “Then let him rest first. After the inspection, we’ll tell him the good news when we’re back. We can talk about it during class.”

“Okay. Go, go.” Qian Lei couldn’t wait anymore and pulled Lan Xuanyu. All his attention at this time was on the storage coin, and he didn’t notice Lan Xuanyu’s subtle changes.

The two came all the way to the main teaching building of the Outer Court, Ying Luohong’s office was not far from the building.

Quickly flying through the stairs, Qian Lei excitedly rang Ying Luohong’s doorbell.

After a short time, Ying Luohong’s voice came from inside, “Little Fatty, you better have something important, otherwise, disturbing a beauty’s sleep so early in the morning will have serious consequences.”

Qian Lei’s expression collapsed, and then he remembered that his teacher was not so easy to get along ! He suddenly felt that it might have been more correct to go to Xiao Qi, at least he was easier to speak to.

The door opened, and Ying Luo’s messy red hair in her white pajamas appeared in front of them, there was not a single trace of her domineering majesty as the Dean of the Outer Court.

“You two come in.” Ying Luohong waved to them.

Seeing her, Qian Lei suddenly looked like a mouse meeting a cat, even his excitement from moments ago was gone, and he walked in very submissively.

Ying Luohong casually sat down on the sofa in the office’s living room, and looked at Qian Lei with a dark look, “Little fatty, you better hope that your words can convince me. You disturbed my sleep so early in the morning!”

Qian Lei hurriedly said: “Teacher, we do have important things. Yesterday we luckily picked up a treasure at Shrek’s Auction House. The item is quite good. Please have a look. We aren’t sure either of what to make of this.”

Ying Luohong said puzzledly: “Luckily picked up ? Let me take a look.”

Qian Lei hurriedly took out his storage gold coin and handed it to Ying Luohong.

Ying Luohong watched him put the gold coin in her hand as if presenting a treasure, she looked it up and down, “Antique coin ?” She tried to probe it using her soul power, but she didn’t notice anything noteworthy.

“There is an ancient soul array inscribed, but it seems to be broken, soul power can’t pour into it.” Ying Luohong said: “Is this what you wanted me to see?”

Qian Lei smiled smugly, “Teacher, this is not broken, your method is wrong, please look at this.”

While talking, he took back the storage gold coin and activated it with yesterday’s method.

Accompanied by a buzzing “Clang”, the storage coin burst out light, and a bag was suddenly flung out.

Ying Luohong’s originally sleepy eyes brightened at once, “This is a bit interesting! It can still  be used, and it’s even a storage device ? An antique soul storage device ?”

The next moment, her eyes froze on the bag, she rubbed her eyes, then looked once more, and said, “This, this is…”

Ying Luohong squatted down quickly, put her hand on the emerald green bag made of rattan, she gently hooked up the rattan with her fingers, and her eyes became a little red.

“This is the Ivy of Life? Oh my god ! Who is the morron who used the Ivy of Life to weave a bag ? There are so many, so many…” Ying Luohong was so excited that she was gesticulating non-stop around.

Lan Xuanyu and Qian Lei looked at each other, from Ying Luohong’s shift in her emotions, they could see that this bag was probably a truly extraordinary existence, much more precious than the gold coin.

Qian Lei hurriedly said, “Teacher, what is this? What is the Ivy of Life?”

Ying Luohong’s breathing was a bit rapid, she didn’t look at him, but just lowered her head and fiddled with the bag, “Little fatty, do you know how bad I want to rob you now ?”

“Ah? Teacher, you won’t. How can an ultra beauty such as you, equally beautiful and full of wisdom, with unparalleled strength and looks, rob your apprentice ?” Qian Lei’s flattering skills made Lan Xuanyu gain a whole new level of respect for him.

“Huh!” Ying Luohong snorted, “What’s in the bag? Have you seen it?”

Qian Lei smiled, and said, “I have seen it, teacher, and it is because of what I have seen in this bag that I think it is extraordinary! Inside is a small ape, and its body is warm, it seems to be alive. Judging by the golden coin’s age, I think it’s not from ten thousand years ago, but from the Spirit Hall era thirty thousand years ago. Only in that era did this kind of thing exist, so it is not as simple as an antique item. Even now there still isn’t a single soul storage device able to store a living creature ! Teacher, isn’t this particularly valuable for research purposes ? It’s probably very expensive, right !”

“Living creature?” Ying Luohong shook, she looked up at him, and then suddenly said in a flash of enlightenment: “I understand, no wonder, no wonder the bag is made using the Ivy of Life. It was actually used for preserving the life energy inside ? Extravagant, so extravagant!”

Qian Lei curiously asked, “Teacher, what is the Ivy of Life? Is this particularly valuable for research? Can it promote the research in the soul storage field and the scientific research?”

Ying Luohong’s mouth twitched, “Research value my ass. There is no research value at all. There is a living creature in it because of the Ivy of Life, not the device.” As she said, she carefully untied the bag. She carefully took out the little yellow-haired ape that Lan Xuanyu and Qian Lei had seen yesterday.

Seeing this little ape, Ying Luohong couldn’t help frowning. At her cultivation level, she could naturally see at a glance that this “little ape” had no soul power in its body, it was definitely not a soul beast.

A creature worth using the Ivy of Life as a bag to store it, she originally thought it was at least a hundred thousand year-old soul beast, or even a descendant of the Great Beasts. But things turned out to be the contrary, it seemed to be just an ordinary animal. And it was not pleasing to look at.

“Teacher, do you recognize it ? What is this?” Qian Lei asked.

Ying Luohong shook her head, “I don’t know it. It should be a creature from the ancient times, a kind of ordinary animal. It’s not a soul beast.”

Qian Lei said disappointedly: “It’s really not a soul beast! Isn’t it worthless then ?”

“Do your eyes only see money ? You are only talking about that.” Ying Luohong reprimanded.

Qian Lei said with a wronged tone: “Isn’t money useful for buying cultivation resources and cultivating well ? Teacher, if I sold this Ivy of Life bag and the storage coin, how much could I make ?”

Ying Luohong looked at him weirdly, and said: ” There is still a certain research value for a soul storage device from 30,000 years ago, especially its soul array. And it is a rare antique, which is very valuable for some collectors. I think its price can be around 5 million federal coins. At least.”

“Five million?” Lan Xuanyu and Qian Lei unanimously exclaimed in exclamation, and their breathing became a little rugged at this moment.
