Early the next morning, the sky was gray and dull, and the hot weather became very refreshing. Soon it started to drizzle, falling continuously, like countless silks falling from the sky and rippling in the air, blocking the view ahead.
It was hazy.
After two days of journey, Xiao Jingchen and his wife finally saw a large town filled with drizzle. From a distance, it seemed that there was no end in sight. The city walls were tall and solid, and it looked majestic from the outside.
The breeze blew gently, and the rain curtain slanted down, wrapping the two people in the drizzle, but there was no trace of wetness on their clothes.
I saw that the two people's bodies were covered with a faint layer of luster, which was not dazzling, but all the falling raindrops were evaporated.
"Brother Xiao, the palace should be in front of you." Murong Yu'er's beautiful eyes were shining brightly, and her whole person looked otherworldly in the rain, otherwise mundane.
After Xiao Jingchen heard the words, he looked at the big town in front of him. He was also surprised in his heart. Just a cursory glance from the outside showed that it was more than twice as big as the previous Qingyuan Town. He had never seen such a majestic town before.
, I was also a little fascinated for a while.
"Yeah, we're finally here." Xiao Jingchen exhaled softly after a while, not knowing what he was thinking.
After finishing their words, the figures of the two people slowly dissipated in the rain, walking towards the Grand Prince's Mansion in the distance. However, neither of them noticed a pair of turbid and translucent eyes staring at them from behind the sand dunes in the distance until the figures completely disappeared.
.
"During this period, so many cultivators appeared near the Grand Prince's Mansion, and there were actually demons appearing before. It's really more and more interesting. Looking at the two little kids before, they should also be cultivators, but it's a pity that they are too weak.
Let me go and observe." An old voice came from behind the sand dune, and then an old figure appeared. He stared at the thin figure that was about to disappear, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Old man, I sensed your presence when I passed by the Grand Prince's Mansion a year ago. I didn't expect that you are still here after so long. So please come with me." Just as the old man was about to leave,
A heartfelt laughter suddenly came from the silent surroundings.
"snort"
"Who do I think it is? It turns out that it's you, the kid, who finally waited for you. When will the spiritual energy pill you owe me be returned? I have an urgent need." The old man said without blushing and out of breath, showing a proud smile.
"You are so shameless at your age. Only you can do it and ruin the old man." A sturdy figure appeared, walked slowly to the old man's side, revealed his identity in one word, and looked at him with a smile.
Holding the old man.
"Who is the old Taoist? Please admit your mistake." The old man looked at the strong man in front of him and said calmly, his face was very calm.
"Don't hide it. Although I don't know why you keep appearing here, I believe there must be something fishy here. As for whether you are ruining the old man, it has nothing to do with me. As long as you promise me one thing, I will return it to you.
Spiritual energy pills, and the amount will exceed the previous amount, I believe you will definitely agree to this deal." The strong man threw a black bag casually, drew an arc in the air, and landed in the old man's hand.
"Qiankun Bag" looked at the black bag in his hand. The old man squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, then nodded slowly.
"Before I come back, protect the two children who just left." The strong man said casually, then walked towards the back, and then another voice came: "The demons have appeared, you It’s time to do something. Should I continue to call you a waste of time, or should I call you Dugu Lengjue? In that battle fifteen years ago, with the strength of the Emperor Realm, I killed someone in the same realm but several times stronger than you. Although the three Demon Emperors were seriously injured and their whereabouts are unknown in the end, your deeds have spread throughout the mainland, and it has also made the humans in the same realm who are afraid of the Demons no longer feel so fearful."
"Who on earth are you?" The old man looked very nervous when he heard the strong man tell what happened to him back then. A surge of majesty surged out of his body and attacked the strong man overwhelmingly.
The strong man didn't even look at the movement behind him. He only saw the sudden shaking of his broad arms, which shook away the majesty. The figure slowly walked away and finally disappeared.
The old man was very surprised. Although his injuries had not healed and he could only exert his strength below Concentration, the pressure was not something that anyone could bear. Even those who had entered the holy realm could not resist it. There was a twinkle in his eye. The light suddenly picked up the Qiankun bag in his hand, and saw two more big characters on it, "dragons and phoenixes danced, and the energy shook the mountains and rivers."
"I see, don't worry, nothing will happen to those two little dolls before you come back." The old man said to the figure that turned into a black dot.
"Ha ha"
"Thank you so much, Brother Dugu." A burst of laughter came from behind, and then disappeared without a trace.
"At that time, a full-scale battle broke out across the entire continent. The fight was dark and bloody, and everyone was fighting fiercely. But I never met you in person. I just heard later that there was a young man beside Xiao Feng who fought against the demons and was overdrawn. With all his potential, he killed countless demons, but he was seriously injured and was finally forced to be sealed." The old man also felt a look of admiration when he thought of this, and his figure flashed slightly before disappearing.
Xiao Jingchen and the two walked into the town. At a glance, they couldn't see the end. The bustling streets and the two rows of buildings were very decorated. There was a huge mansion in the distance. It was very majestic. It must be the city lord's palace. Okay, thinking of this, Xiao Jingchen's eyes flashed with coldness, and he walked towards an inn ahead.
Although it is drizzling at this time, the streets are still very lively. It is indeed the most prosperous city outside the Great Xia Dynasty. Such a city has a population of one million, and there are an endless stream of outsiders and cultivators. There are even more of them, a mixed bag.
I heard that there is a large auction house here, and the secret background is the War Alliance. All the treasures are provided by the War Alliance. There will also be some treasures obtained by the strong that are auctioned here in exchange for other treasures. Such profits are Everyone will covet it, but no one has ever dared to pay attention to it, just because the strength behind it is too huge, and the guards here are all strong men in the Soul Condensation Realm, and there are even strong ones in the Condensation Realm sitting in charge, so their strength can be seen. A spot.
Walking into the inn, it was already overcrowded. Seeing that the visitor was an extraordinary person, the boss made room for Xiao Jingchen and his wife to live in an upper room. After tidying up, he went downstairs and sat at a wooden table in the corner. Stand aside and cover your ears to listen.
"Have you all heard? The auction house will be opened again in the next two days. There are some valuable treasures going to be auctioned. In addition, there are many new faces in the city in the past few days. They should all be aiming at the treasures in the auction house. Go." There were several people sitting around the wooden table in front, and one of them said loudly.
"I also feel that the atmosphere in the city is very solemn these days. The auction house only holds an auction once a year. This time it is bigger than previous years. Will something happen?" A man at his table was drinking.
The middle-aged man suddenly said.
"This is something we can't talk about. If it reaches anyone's ears, it will be a disaster. But we won't be able to see such a grand scene. My son went out of the city some time ago and even said that he could see it from the sky.
I saw people flying over from time to time. It seems that this auction has indeed attracted a lot of powerful people. We are just a bunch of ordinary people. These are just small talk after dinner." Someone else answered.
"I went out of the city yesterday and I heard from hearsay that there was an important treasure to be auctioned this time. It was brought by an old man from the south. It seemed to be some kind of treasure that could absorb spiritual power. It was extremely mysterious. All the powerful people who heard the news were...
The news has arrived, and it seems that a fight between dragon and tiger is inevitable. Don't fight when the time comes, it will be our surname that suffers.
"yes"
"Yes"
"..."
A constant stream of voices sounded in the inn. Xiao Jingchen sipped his tea and listened slowly to some insignificant things. However, this is also the place where he can learn about this city the fastest. It seems that what his uncle said before was right. What is it like in the inn?
There are many people there, and there are also some practitioners who have settled in. If you pay more attention, you will be fine.
"Yu'er, tell me what the treasure that that person mentioned just now could be that can absorb spiritual power." Xiao Jingchen whispered.
"The world is so vast, and there are all kinds of wonders, just like there are many treasures that can absorb spiritual power. The Qiankun Sleeve of Old Man Tianji in Chiyan Mountain can accommodate all the spiritual power in the world and gather it into one body."
"The treasure of the two valleys of Yin and Yang, the Yin and Yang bottle, can absorb spiritual power. Yin is for death, and Yang is for life. It can condense people in the bottle to hone their bodies."
“…..”
Murong Yu'er told many treasures that Xiao Jingchen had never heard of before. He didn't expect that besides his exquisite pagoda and divine tripod, there were so many rare and exotic objects.
The two of them whispered a lot, and during this period, many people walked into the inn again. Xiao Jingchen was shocked by the arrival of these people. They were all cultivators. The group of people who were chatting before were all attracted by the aura emanating from these people.
Shocked by the pressure, they all stood up to pay their bills and leave. As a result, the inn that had been very lively before became extremely quiet now.
"Wu Gang, I just heard a lot of rare treasures from the girl. I didn't expect that I know all these things at a young age. I don't know where I studied under. Can you give me some advice?" A man with a well-proportioned figure, wearing a white shirt, and handsome features walked up.
In front of the wooden table, he held a folding fan in his hand and said with a smile. There was a look of amazement in his eyes. He was staring at Murong Yu'er intently, treating Xiao Jingchen as air.
"Is there something wrong with this friend? If not, please go away and don't hinder our conversation." Xiao Jingchen said calmly, and then took a sip of tea from the corner of his mouth.
"you"
"uneducated stuff"
"Little girl, can we go and talk at my table?"
Wu Gang waited for Xiao Jingchen fiercely. After a while, he suppressed the anger in his body, turned around and said to Murong Yu'er with a smile.
"A good dog doesn't block the road. I have no intention of chatting with you. Go away." Murong Yu'er said coldly when she saw Wu Gang actually insulting Xiao Jingchen. A trace of frost appeared on her beautiful face.
"How dare you call me a dog? Do you believe it or not that I broke his dog's legs?" Wu Gang looked very ugly. How could he give up after being verbally humiliated by a little girl in front of so many people?
