Chapter 135: Old Matters Revisited
Just when the atmosphere at the scene was awkward and Lu Chengzhi was about to storm off, the bell rang and the Lingchuan was opened on time.
Lu Chengzhi's eyes lingered on Xiao Mian for a week, as if he wanted to carve Xiao Mian's appearance into his bones. Then he followed Wan Dongyao and the Demon Shadow Sect into the Lingchuan; Xiang had watched a good show there. Qing Wuqing nodded to Xiao Mian, and then walked into the Lingchuan with his maids; Xiao Mian and Huangfuling were next. They took a deep breath, looked at each other, and then walked side by side into the open door of the Lingchuan. open door.
Because they were participating in the auction on behalf of the Five Elements Sect, Xiao Mian and Huangfuling naturally did not have to pay the so-called admission fee, and they were led to a room specially assigned to the Five Elements Sect. This is not the first time that Xiao Mian has participated in the auction. The first time, he borrowed Xie Ying's help to enter the Accord; the second time, he participated by himself, and later also entered Fu Qingqiong's Accord; and now it is the third This time, he was participating on behalf of the sect, so Xiao Mian relied on his own strength to enter this Accord.
Thinking about the three different encounters, Xiao Mian couldn't help but sigh: They all say that cultivating immortals is good, but cultivating immortals is also troublesome!
In this spiritual world that eats people without spitting out their bones, if you don't have the corresponding strength, status, and background, you won't get respect.
If you don't want your rights to be infringed upon by others, you can only be stronger than others. Therefore, Xiao Mian is determined to win the upcoming Jin Zhonghuo.
"Junior Brother Xiao, were you too impulsive just now? After all, Lu Chengzhi is still a member of my Five Elements Sect..." Xiao Mian's thoughts were interrupted by Huangfuling's words, but before Huangfuling could finish speaking, Xiao Mian directly Interrupted: "Does Lu Chengzhi still think of himself as a member of the Five Elements Sect? Then why didn't he come to join us, but got mixed up with the people of the Demonic Shadow Sect?"
"He just wanted to set up a trap to kill Junior Brother a few days ago, how could he come to join us?"
"That's it! Since he has deliberately planned to kill me, do I still need to give him a good look? Senior sister, don't forget: he not only wanted to kill me that day, but also wanted to kill you! Besides, I have taken out the land since then. After Dragon Sword and Earth Dragon Rock Armor come to show off, he will never give me a good look. Instead of everyone's superficial and false feelings, it would be better to break up completely like now and fight to the death with real swords and guns!"
"This... I see that Lu Chengzhi has a close relationship with Wan Dongyao. Those eight shadow attendants are not so much here to protect Wan Dongyao as they are here to help Lu Chengzhi!"
"Well! It seems that what happened last time did not make Lu Chengzhi give up the idea of killing us. Instead, he colluded with the Demon Shadow Sect and wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of us. The other party is already counting the memorial days for us, why should we be polite to them? ? My senior sister!”
"……,I see!"
After all, Huangfuling is not an ordinary daughter's family, she has always been bold in temperament. After Xiao Mian's analysis, she also put away the last chance of luck.
After a while, the windows of the Accord opened without any wind, indicating that the auction was about to begin.
Following a burst of melodious music, a woman in red in her thirties stepped onto the platform. Xiao Mian and Huangfuling couldn't help but be startled when they saw it, because the woman was exactly the woman in red dress they saw at the entrance of Wanxiangzhai. With her cultivation in the foundation building period, could she be able to suppress the scene? Xiao Mian just thought this, his eyes swept over the three figures behind the woman in palace clothes, and his pupils couldn't help but shrink: Xiao Mian only knew one person among those three people, but even that was enough, because that person was Duan Tianwei, the powerful golden elixir!
The problem is that if Duan Tianwei and Duan Tianwei can advance and retreat at the same time, then do we still need to guess the identities of the other two people? Obviously those three people are the legendary three powerful golden elixirs stationed in Lingchuanfang City, and the woman in red can make the three golden elixirs follow her. What is her identity?
For a moment, the woman in red didn't say a word, but she already shocked the whole audience.
"Hello, fellow Taoists! I believe that many fellow Taoists who hang out in Lingchuanfang City know me. I am the boss of Wanxiangzhai, Chi Lianxia!" He introduced himself freely, and the female boss of Wanxiangzhai Before Chi Lianxia could even wait for the casual cultivators below to whisper, she had already thrown out another shock: "Of course, starting from today, maybe I will have an additional identity, that is, the highest supervisor of order in Lingchuanfang City! "
"Supervisor? Is Friend Chi Dao's tone too loud?" As soon as Chi Lianxia finished speaking, a floating pavilion suddenly rose up in the empty air, and a plain but somewhat angry voice sounded from inside. After hearing this, everyone who had been talking a lot before immediately fell silent. It was obvious that the owner of the voice had a great reputation among the casual cultivators. One of the strong men even shouted at the top of his lungs: "Mr. Wen is right! This Lingchuan City is a city spontaneously formed by casual cultivators in Nanyue Prefecture. When will we need a supervisor? Besides, even if we do, Management should be managed by the three major sects or Wan Zong who are the landlords. When will it be the turn of the monks from other states to be the supervisors? "
"That's it! That's it! The affairs of our Nanyue State are handled by my Nanyue State people!"
"What about the Wanxiangzhai and the women from Zhongzhou? Go back to your Zhongzhou and show off your power!"
"If you want to extend your influence into Nanyue Prefecture, you have to ask the three major sects if they agree, and ask Wan Zongyuan if they agree!"
For a while, the crowd was noisy and the scene was quite unstable.
Chi Lianxia just watched with cold eyes, but did not stop, but Duan Tianwei and the other three suddenly released their own golden elixir momentum. In an instant, the three golden elixir pressures in the audience were intertwined with each other, suppressing everyone present and could not speak - only Mr. Wen was not affected. .
"Chi Lianxia! Do you want to take the initiative to provoke interstate disputes!?"
As he spoke, an ancient book rose above the floating pavilion where Mr. Wen was, shining with silver light, as if to cast a spell. Xiao Mian was stunned when he saw the ancient book pavilion, and looked at the floating pavilion where Mr. Wen was, thinking about something. At this moment, Duan Tianwei and the other two released and then retracted their golden elixir power, obviously just to make everyone shut up. At the same time, Chi Lianxia also chuckled at Fuge: "Hehe..., Brother Wen misunderstood! I just said 'maybe', not definitely! Brother Wen, have you forgotten your master's promise back then?"
"This..."
"When the market was robbed, the spearhead of the incident pointed directly at Wan Zongyuan. Senior Shang also came to the scene to investigate in person, and agreed with the seven elders of our Chamber of Commerce Elders: the matter will be left to Wan Zongyuan to investigate for seven years; if Wan Zongyuan can track down the murderer within seven years and give an explanation to the market, the matter will be over; if the murderer is still not found after seven years, then our Chamber of Commerce will move into Nanyuezhou! Use our own means to find the vicious criminals who dared to attack the market! Brother Wen, is what I said right? Or have you forgotten?"
"..."
Faced with Chi Lianxia's questioning, Mr. Wen was speechless. Obviously, what the other party said was not groundless.
Someone who is careful calculated that the robbery happened exactly six years ago.
In other words, the seven-year deadline is just around the corner!
No wonder Chi Lianxia wants to bring up the old matter again! But since the matter was decided by Mr. Wen's master and the other party, the many casual cultivators present naturally dare not say anything. After all, Mr. Wen himself is a Jindan strongman, and his master is the legendary Yuanying Patriarch. The highest level of casual cultivators present is only foundation building, how dare they criticize the Yuanying Patriarch?
"After all, the seven-year deadline has not yet expired. Why is Daoist Fellow Chi Lianxia so anxious?" A touch of elegant voice sounded throughout the venue. It was Xiang Wuqing, the young master of Luohua Valley, who leaned half of his body out of the window. Seeing that everyone in the audience was looking at him, Xiang Wuqing said, "Although the night is long, everyone's time is precious. Please start the auction first!"
Chi Lianxia glanced at Xiang Wuqing, her eyes twitching slightly, and she smiled sweetly.
