Chapter Sixty-Eight: Wen's
"You don't really want to sell it, do you?"
Qin Churan looked at Li Xia's hand that reached into his trouser pocket and asked.
She had seen this action before.
Just a few days ago, Li Xia showed her the payment code.
Li Xia woke up in shock and shook his head.
Fortunately, reason finally defeated his desire.
After struggling for a while, I plugged the phone back in.
"I told you, I'm not that kind of person!" Li Xia slammed the table and said firmly: "Not everything can be sold!"
Zhu Xiang was startled by Li Xia's sudden seriousness.
If he hadn't seen Li Xia take out his cell phone with his own eyes, he would have truly believed Li Xia's lies.
However, Zhu Xiang has no intention of giving up the idea of purchasing the Eye of the Void.
After hesitating for a moment, he raised his hand again and said, "Six hundred million, no more."
Li Xia had tears in her eyes and clenched her fists.
Old style!
Do you know how much I have to give up for you?!
Six hundred million!
If you come out and don't give me 1.8 million, how can you be worthy of me?
After complaining a few words in his heart, Li Xia raised his eyes to look at Zhu Xiang, gritted his teeth and said: "I won't sell it for 10 billion!"
"You really don't want to sell it?"
"Not for sale!"
Seeing that Li Xia was so determined, Zhu Xiang had no choice but to give up, let out a long sigh, and said doubtfully: "If you are not here to sell things, then why are you here on the black market?!"
Li Xia lowered his eyebrows and looked at the Eye of the Void on the table, and said solemnly: "I have a friend who was sealed by it."
As soon as the words fell, the room fell into dead silence again.
In this short hour, Zhu Xiang had been shocked twice by Li Xia.
First, I saw him take out the Eye of the Void from his bag, and now I learned that his friend was still sealed in the Eye of the Void.
Is this a class that a common man with a flat head can reach?
"No." Zhu Xiang frowned and looked very confused, "Why is your friend so powerful that you need to use the Eye of the Void to seal him?!"
"Look!" Xu Xiao suddenly shouted: "I am the only one who feels this way!"
Then he chuckled at Zhu Xiang and said, "I had the same reaction when I first heard him say it."
Zhu Xiang was stunned for a moment and murmured: "Those who can be sealed by the Eye of the Void must at least be at the level of super demon slayers..."
After saying that, Zhu Xiang looked at everyone suspiciously, "It can't be Feng Gu, right?"
"How do you know?!" Xu Xiao said in surprise.
"What a bastard! Is this really true?!" Zhu Xiang was shocked again.
"Yeah." Li Xia nodded and said, "But there are so many super demon-slayer masters, how do you know it's Fenggu?"
Zhu Xiang breathed a long sigh of relief and explained: "He is a super demon slayer, he is your friend, and you are from Linghai City. With these conditions combined, who else can you have besides Feng Gu?"
After saying that, Zhu Xiang looked at Li Xia and said, "No wonder you are so good at it. Feng Gu taught you, right?"
Li Xia was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's right."
"So, the purpose of your coming here is to save Fenggu?" Zhu Xiang continued.
Li Xia nodded, "Is there anything you can do?"
Under everyone's expectant gaze, Zhu Xiang fell into deep thought.
After a moment, he suddenly shook his head decisively and said, "No."
Li Xia was immediately speechless.
There's no way you can tell me so directly!
Why are you sitting there in a daze?!
I even thought there was hope...
"But I know a person, maybe he can find a way." Zhu Xiang spoke again.
This sentence rekindled Li Xia's hope that had just been extinguished.
"Who?!" Li Xia stretched her neck and asked.
"A member of the Wen clan."
"Wen..." Li Xia murmured, "Is this the caster who created the Eye of the Void?"
"Yeah." Zhu Xiang nodded, "But they may not be willing to see you."
"Why?" Li Xia asked doubtfully.
"Because..." Zhu Xiang hesitated for a moment and said, "She and the Demon Slayer Tower have a bit of a feud..."
"If I knew that you were going to Fenggu, I would definitely not see you."
"Besides, the Eye of the Void is my family legacy, and I might ask you to hand it over when the time comes..."
Li Xia's heart sank.
Every day, my mood is like riding a roller coaster, with ups and downs.
But now that the matter was over, he had no other choice.
"I'll go." Li Xia said solemnly.
"Are you really going?"
"Otherwise, do you have other options?"
Zhu Xiang let out a long sigh and said: "That's right, except for the people of the Wen family, no one else in this world can unlock the Eye of the Void."
"Are your words reliable?" At this moment, Xu Xiao suddenly asked doubtfully: "Isn't it rumored that the Wen family has long since withered?"
Zhu Xiang said disdainfully: "You all know that's just a rumor."
After saying that, Zhu Xiang fell into deep thought again. After a moment, he said softly: "Back then, the Wen family relied on the heaven-defying spiritual weapon to become all-powerful."
"In the beginning, people respected Wen very much, because wherever Wen was there, it meant absolute safety."
"At that time, the Wen clan was even more popular than the Demon Slayer Tower."
"But later, perhaps because the world was at peace, people no longer relied so much on Wen."
"Some people even think that the Wen clan's spiritual weapons are too dangerous, so they begin to boycott the Wen clan."
"Under the instigation of that group of people, many people spontaneously petitioned, demanding that the Wen family be controlled."
"Under pressure, the superiors had no choice but to negotiate with the Wen family."
"I heard that the talks finally broke down. In anger, the Wen family took back all the spiritual weapons and hid them from the world."
"No wonder..." After listening to Zhu Xiang's words, Xu Xiao murmured, "It's rare to see spiritual weapons made by the Wen family on the market."
"Occasionally I see one or two pieces, and they are all from a long time ago."
"The one or two things you mentioned are also fake." Zhu Xiang said calmly.
"how do you know?"
Zhu Xiang took a sip of tea and explained: "Every time the Wen family makes a spiritual weapon, it will leave a mark on it. They can sense the location of these spiritual weapons through the mark."
"When they escaped from the world, they indeed took back all their spiritual weapons."
As he said that, Zhu Xiang looked at Xu Xiao with a suspicious look on his face, "You don't know how to buy it, right?"
Xu Xiao was stunned for a moment, then immediately waved his hand and said, "How could it be? Am I that stupid?"
Everyone looked at Xu Xiao's confused expression and couldn't laugh or cry.
Xu Xiao's face showed visible pain and sorrow.
Zhu Xiang saw through it without saying anything, and comforted him: "It would be fine if I didn't."
Suddenly, Li Xia seemed to realize something and said seriously: "According to what you said, the Wen family should have known about the emergence of the Eye of the Void!"
"Why has it been so long without any movement from them?"
Everyone was shocked.
"Yes!" Zhu Xiang said in surprise: "I just said there is something wrong."
"It stands to reason that Mrs. Wen should have come to ask you for such a precious thing!"
"It's unreasonable that you still have this thing in your hands!"
Li Xia didn't respond and looked down at the Eye of the Void on the table.
His eyes were fixed on the eye pattern carved on the black wooden box, thoughtfully...
