C40 The Mysterious Assassin!
C40 The Mysterious Assassin!
Seeing the silence in the surroundings, the old man knocked down the wooden hammer in his hand.
"Fragment of the Heavenly Origin Sacred Diagram, 80,000 Spirit Stone, deal!"
After the hammer was struck, a sincere smile appeared on Mooh Chen's face.
After the old man announced the final result, someone in a private room crushed the handrail and stood up with an extremely furious expression.
After a long while, he sat down again, and a gloomy expression appeared on his face as he sneered.
"If you have the money to buy the 'Sage Sky Origin Chart', you might not have the life to take it!"
Outside, the old man auctioned several other items in succession. Each of them was a treasure. Its price was higher than the incomplete map of the Tianyuan Sage Chart.
After buying the map fragment, although Mooh Chen still had some money left, he was no longer interested in other things.
The auction soon came to an end. All the items were auctioned off. At this time, someone knocked on the door of Mooh Chen's room.
The old man had just returned with a beautiful maid beside him. She was holding a wooden box in her hands that looked like jade lotus roots.
Mooh Chen's eyes were burning as he looked at the wooden box. He knew that it contained the map fragment that he wanted.
"I hope Young Master can forgive me for any inconsiderate things that happened before." The old man stretched out his withered right hand and waved it gently.
The servant girl put the sensible wooden box on the table beside Mooh Chen and quietly left the room.
"Young master spent eighty thousand Spirit Stone this time, and the portion of the pill that was lost was only ten thousand Spirit Stone. Do you think our auction will only collect the pill that is deducted, or?"
Mooh Chen looked at the old man's muddy eyes and understood what he meant.
The items that were deducted from the auction were calculated according to the lowest price, which meant that the auction would obtain a lot of benefits from it.
What Elder Song meant was that he wanted to deduct some more pill, and exchange it for Spirit Stone.
Although he did not have any extra Spirit Stone on him, Mooh Chen still slowly shook his head in the end.
One had to say that his teacher was really concerned about him. He had actually prepared so many pill for him during his training trip down the mountain!
This kind of treatment was likely something that even the true disciples of many large sects did not have the qualifications to enjoy.
However, Jiang Ling's actions also caused a trace of warmth to flow through Mooh Chen's heart.
His master was a peerless figure who could seize the fortune of the heavens, but he was very attentive to every detail.
"These pill were given to me by my master. I took out a portion of it and used it as a Spirit Stone. This is a great disrespect to my master. How could I dare to act recklessly?"
Mooh Chen looked at the old man and smiled apologetically.
The old man nodded in understanding when he heard this. In his heart, he was even more certain of Mooh Chen's identity.
If he wanted to ask everyone in the world who was the top alchemist, then it was, without a doubt, the 'Sacred Pill Land'!
This person was definitely the personal disciple of some elder in the Holy Land of Medicinal Treasures. Otherwise, how could he possibly take out so many pill?
Mooh Chen did not know what the old man was thinking in his heart. He returned the jade token in his hand rather politely!
Jiang Ling, who was far away in the horizon, patted his forehead in annoyance. "This disciple is really too dull. Without the pill, I will refine it again."
Although he said this, the joy on Jiang Ling's face could not be concealed.
Mooh Chen respected his teacher and was quite satisfied.
To Jiang Ling, the aptitude of his disciple was not his measurement. In any case, he could raise it with a wave of his hand.
His disciple's character was what he valued the most. Mooh Chen's performance made him very happy.
This so-called "Sky Origin Sacred Map" did not have any effect on him. After all, he was invincible in the sect!
However, things were of great use to his disciple. As his master, he naturally had to do his best to help. So, what was the big deal about some pill?
...
Mooh Chen, who was thousands of miles away from his master, naturally could not guess that Jiang Ling would look at him from afar.
After the old man walked out of the box, he brought Zhan Muxue and Duan Zexiong out of the auction house.
Even though they were far away from the auction, Duan Zexiong still couldn't conceal the excitement in his heart. He said in a self-deprecating manner, "Just now, I was really nervous. I was afraid that Young Master wouldn't be able to take out the money and would be ridiculed by everyone. How could I still remember that the Ancestor gave you the pill?"
"It's still Young Master who is calm and composed. That indifferent attitude is truly admirable. After all these years of training, I have really mixed myself into a dog's body."
Facing Duan Zexiong's flattering words, Mooh Chen could only helplessly laugh bitterly.
You, Duan Zexiong, were once the master of a sect, but now you are so shameless and belittling yourself?
Initially, Mooh Chen only wanted to have a look at the 'Tianwu Auction', but he didn't expect to meet the 'Heavenly Origin Sacred Map'. This was a pleasant surprise.
"It's time for this matter to leave Green Cloud City..." Mooh Chen thought to himself.
However, at this moment, a strong wind suddenly sounded in his ears!
"Young master, be careful!"
Duan Zexiong's exclamation was heard at the same time.
Even without Duan Zexiong's warning, Mooh Chen knew that a powerful expert had suddenly attacked.
The long sword at his waist was unsheathed in an instant, and the ringing of the sword could be heard without an end.
A cold sword light flashed in front of him and blocked this fatal attack. After that, Mooh Chen took a step forward and stood side by side with Duan Zexiong. The two of them blocked Zhan Muxue behind their backs.
Not far from them stood a man with an imposing aura. This man's entire body was covered by an evil black Qi, making it difficult for others to see his face clearly.
What shocked Mooh Chen and Duan Zexiong the most was that this mysterious guest's strength far exceeded the two of them. He was at the peak of the four Extremities!
This kind of strength was far from what the two of them could handle.
Duan Zexiong looked at that person with a solemn expression. After carefully sizing up this person's appearance, his pupils shrunk slightly, and his heart thumped. He said in a deep voice, "You are from the Blood Lotus Cult."
When the black shadow man heard this, he let out a shrill laughter that sent chills down one's spine.
"You have some knowledge, kid. You can see my roots."
After the black shadow man confirmed it, Duan Zexiong's face instantly turned pale. He quickly thought of a way to retreat from the enemy.
This man was too powerful. They could not fight him head on, so they could only fight while retreating.
"Even if I lose my life here, I can't let young master get hurt!" Duan Zexiong glanced at Mooh Chen from the corner of his eye and thought to himself.
As the Ancestor's most beloved disciple, he absolutely couldn't allow anything to happen to Mooh Chen.
Mooh Chen, who was standing next to Duan Zexiong, furrowed his brows. Although he didn't know the origin of this' Blood Lotus Cult ', it wasn't hard to tell from Duan Zexiong's facial expression that they had encountered a lot of trouble.
"I don't have any grudges with you or the 'Blood Lotus Cult' in the past, and I don't have any grudges with you. Why did you come to find me? Perhaps there is some misunderstanding between us." Mooh Chen gripped his sword tightly and stared at the man in front of him.
His only enemy was the Shangguan family. Could it be that this man was invited by the Shangguan family to kill him?
"Hehe, we really don't have any grudges between us. It's a pity that you have bought the 'Heavenly Yuan Sacred Map'. You deserve to die!" The black shadow man's body was surrounded by evil Qi, and his killing intent soared.
