Chapter 456: Chapter 301: Journey to Flying Dragon City, Gathering Storms, Yellow Dew as Bait! The Lady’s Fishing Scheme? (Part 2)

In this way, until mid to late November.

This day.

Li Xian went to seek advice from Yan Hao on the Five Elements Techniques. After a conversation and discussion, he gained a deeper understanding of the Five Elements Techniques, greatly feeling it was of immense benefit. Until the night was deep, when Li Xian was about to return home, Yan Hao said, "No rush, don’t be in a hurry, why don’t you stay and have some tea first?"

He flicked his sleeve. The furniture in the house slowly moved positions, leaving a section of the viewing terrace open. Yan Hao sat on a meditation cushion and filled two tea cups.

Li Xian sat down and asked, "Does Vice Envoy Yan have such an elegant interest today?" 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Yan Hao laughed and said, "Not really elegant interest. It’s just that the matter you inquired about has a lead now."

Li Xian asked, "Oh?"

Yan Hao said, "The Dew of Dawn is a Human Yellow Essence Treasure, extremely rare. But recently, there are traces of it appearing in three locations. You came today, and I was just about to tell you. But we got carried away chatting, and only now did I recall."

Li Xian thought to himself, "This Vice Envoy Yan is truly an enthusiast. It’s really a good thing to be friends with such a person. Within the Water Altar where there are many elders, even Chief Shi has several beautiful companions. Only Yan Hao is fully devoted to studying the Five Elements Techniques. He stays in the Flower Cage Sect, serving as the Water Altar Deputy Envoy, precisely because this place’s unique terrain allows his Five Elements Techniques to be displayed to their full extent."

Yan Hao said, "The first location is Sunset Slope."

"Sunset Slope is located in Yu Nan Dao, Mu Yue Prefecture, and the Pilgrimage Platform. The terrain here is unique, blessed by nature, and every few years, Dew of Dawn is born from the sky. At that time, it will inevitably cause disputes, and in recent years, when the world is in chaos, people’s lives are miserable, and the more so, the more heroes emerge, and the stars shine bright. The Dew of Dawn... this year is eighty percent likely to appear in Sunset Slope."

Li Xian felt a stir in his heart and inquired about the details.

Yan Hao said, "We are in Huaiyin Prefecture, and it’s still extremely far, extremely far from Mu Yue Prefecture. Moreover, to seize the Dew of Dawn, you need to compete with the local talented young elites. The local Wang, Li, and other family names have quite good strength."

He laughed and said, "If you rush there now, I’m afraid the Dew of Dawn will be gone. But Chrysanthemum might still be there."

Li Xian laughed and said, "Vice Envoy Yan, you are quite the joker. It seems this Dew of Dawn has no fate with me."

Seeing him light-hearted and unperturbed, with no sign of regret, Yan Hao couldn’t help but feel admiration and then continued, "The second location for Dew of Dawn... is even farther, and whether it’s true or false is hard to determine. Recently, there have been rumors of an endless yellow glow coming from the Snow Palace in the Northern Celestial Domain. It may be a feature of Dew of Dawn descending."

Li Xian thought: "The Southern Celestial Domain, Yu Nan Dao is already vast beyond measure. The Northern Celestial Domain is in a faraway place, whether I can even reach it is moot." Holding no hope, he asked, "What about the third location?"

At this moment, the tea in the cup bottomed out.

Yan Hao refilled half a cup of hot tea, took a sip, and leisurely said, "The third one, well, is in Flying Dragon City in Huaiyin Prefecture."

Yan Hao said, "I also don’t know whether it’s true or not. Recently, there’s news that a Human Yellow Essence Treasure, Dew of Dawn, has appeared in Flying Dragon City. But the price is very expensive, feared to cost tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of taels."

"Human Yellow Essence Treasure is something that can only be encountered by fate, and this matter greatly depends on destiny. Some people are willing to pay thousands of taels, yet can’t even touch a bit of it. Some without spending a single bit, it just falls into their lap. If there is truly destiny, after several twists and turns, it will ultimately still be yours."

Li Xian sighed and said, "That may be true..." He gazed into the distance, gently savoring the tea aroma. In his mind, he considered that he already has the business of a "bee farm" and "orchard," earning over a thousand taels a month, over ten thousand a year. By saving this way, it would take more than ten, even tens of years, to barely afford it.

"The value of Human Yellow Essence Treasure lies in its Magic Dao content, which would set such a price. Previously, I fortuitously obtained ’Golden Scale,’ and also ’Yellow Nine Ginseng.’ These were all by chance, and now truly needing money to purchase, only then knowing how precious this treasure is."

Silently calculating an account.

Li Xian said, "Thank you, Vice Envoy Yan. I’ll take my leave for now."

Yan Hao smiled with profound meaning: "Do you have any thoughts?" Li Xian said, "Given my financial constraints at the moment, I dare not dabble in it. It’s better to mind my business, improve my Martial Arts, and manage my enterprise. When I’m more financially stable in the future, if I ever encounter a Human Yellow Essence Treasure again, then I’ll plan further."

Yan Hao said, "Don’t rush, No Error. The Dew of Dawn at Sunset Slope and the Northern Celestial Domain, you won’t be able to touch them. But the one in Flying Dragon City, it might not be unrelated to you."

Li Xian asked, "Vice Envoy Yan, please explain clearly."

Yan Hao laughed and said, "I heard that the Essence Treasure transaction cannot solely be in silver. There are other ways to obtain Dew of Dawn, and I heard... if several conditions are met, one might even acquire Dew of Dawn without spending money. This Human Yellow Essence Treasure is causing quite a stir in Flying Dragon City. Many people seeking the Essence Treasure are flocking there."

Li Xian thought: "If it’s so, there’s no harm in going to have a look." But then thought, "Anything Human Yellow Essence Treasure is secretly consumed, how come this Dew of Dawn is known to everyone?"

Yan Hao continued, "Furthermore, recently this Flying Dragon City can truly be described as a muddy water, very bustling... Recently, Water Altar, Earth Altar are jointly discussing significant matters, also related to Flying Dragon City."

Li Xian asked, "Is it also because of Dew of Dawn?"

Yan Hao said, "No. What Flower Cage Sect is discussing must be related to ’women.’ While the Essence Treasure is good, it’s not as good as having a beautiful companion long term. Flying Dragon City holds hidden turmoil, and my Flower Cage Sect has always engaged in ’flower-stirring,’ ’fear not of the world’s chaos’ affairs, so it’s thought to take advantage of it, attempt to fish in troubled waters."

"Therefore... if you’re savvy enough, you might try to fish in troubled waters too. Perhaps you might obtain that Dew of Dawn? You might indeed have a destiny with Dew of Dawn."

Li Xian suddenly understood: "So it turns out that the significant matters recently discussed by Water Altar and Earth Altar are related to Flying Dragon City. In this view, Flying Dragon City is anything but peaceful. If I were to rush there recklessly, there would surely be danger. But... just now also hearing. Dew of Dawn is extremely rare, either being held by powerful families at Sunset Slope. How to seize it alone? Or it appeared in the Northern Celestial Domain... And if it’s not chaotic, given my financial and material state, how could I even touch it?"
