Mortals: Take Mo Juren at the start

"Fifty million..." Hua Qingyao finally couldn't hold back any longer and tentatively quoted a higher price, which was five million more than the previous one.

However, the result was completely different from what she had imagined. As soon as she finished speaking, someone continued to raise the price, with no sign of giving in.

Seeing this scene, she couldn't help but be a little shocked. It seemed that it was still a long way from the final transaction price!

Come to think of it, it is also a spiritual treasure after all. Although it can only be used to refine pills, its value still cannot be too low.

Seeing that the competition was still very fierce, she temporarily gave up following. It was obviously not the right time to take action, so she decided to wait a little longer.

After a while, the price of the Four Spirits Cauldron had reached 70 million. At this point, the voices of bidding finally gradually died down.

"Seventy-five million..." Hua Qingyao spoke again. There was another difference of five million. As expected, when the price was heard, the hall immediately became quiet.

Seventy-five million is not a low amount. Even a strong person in the fusion realm would hesitate. It’s not that they can’t afford it, but they are wondering whether it is worth it.

The auction is far from over now, and more valuable treasures will appear one after another. It is not cost-effective to waste spirit stones or resources on a pretty good spiritual treasure alchemy cauldron.

"Seventy-six million..." Just as everyone was weighing the pros and cons, an old voice suddenly sounded, and upon hearing this, Hua Qingyao's face changed slightly.

The voice was so familiar. It was that old lady Xiong. If she remembered correctly, she had not participated in the auction before. She suddenly bid at this time, and her price was only one million more than hers. She must have no good intentions.

"Eighty million..." Hua Qingyao snorted in her heart and shouted again in a delicate voice.

"Eighty-one million..." The other party obviously had no intention of stopping and continued to slowly raise the price, with undisguised sarcasm in his tone.

"Eighty-five million..."

"Eighty-six million..."

"Eighty-seven million..."

"Eighty-eight million..."

"Eighty-nine million..."

"Ninety million..."

"..."

The two continued to compete, directly pushing the price to a high price of 90 million. This was obviously a bit of a fight, and almost everyone present felt that something was wrong.

However, although they knew about it, most people just wanted to watch the show. After all, it was not easy to see such a situation where powerful people in the fusion realm would directly tear each other apart in competition.

Hua Qingyao was very angry, her plump breasts heaving, and her bright eyes were already filled with murderous intent, as if she couldn't wait to take action.

This was a complete slap in her face! She had never been bullied like this since she was a child. She even betrayed her mother's clan and was hunted by the Sky Fox King for so long, but she never lost face.

This bear woman is simply courting death! Do you think she is easy to bully?

He took another look at the Four Spirits Cauldron on the platform, wondering whether he should continue bidding, but suddenly he noticed that Mo Juren opposite him shook his head slightly.

In an instant, the words that were about to be shouted out were immediately swallowed back.

She suddenly realized that she was also angered by the other party, which was why she made such a reckless bid regardless of the cost.

It is true that the Four Spirit Cauldron is a good thing, and she just happens to need it, but it is by no means essential. There is no shortage of similar treasures, and they are just a little less effective.

Thinking of this, she made a decision immediately and stopped bidding.

At the same time, in another VIP room on the third floor, the silver-haired old woman suddenly frowned.

She had been too hasty in her response just now and had directly raised the price to 90 million, which was indeed a bit high. She had thought that if the other party continued to compete, she would simply give up and let the other party suffer a great loss.

However, what she didn't expect was that after 90 million, the other party didn't respond.

For a moment, she had a bad feeling in her heart. Was he going to give up? If so, wouldn't she be the one being taken advantage of?

"Ninety million at a time. Is there any Taoist friend who would like to bid?" On the high platform, the Taoist priest in black robes vaguely guessed the result, but still asked according to the procedure.

Sure enough, there was no response at all after these words were spoken. It was obvious that no one was stupid and would spend such a high price to buy something that could only be used to make pills.

"Ninety million twice..." The black-robed Taoist asked again, but still no one answered. So he did not delay any longer and immediately made the final decision.

"Ninety million three times, deal. Congratulations, fellow Taoist. The Four Spirit Cauldron is yours."

As he spoke, he gestured to the boy to take the tripod away. At this time, all the humans and demons present understood what was going on, and some could not help but laugh out loud.

At the same time, in a VIP room somewhere, the silver-haired old woman's face had already become as gloomy as water, and her eyes revealed endless resentment.

This time he had intended to plot against that evil woman, but he never expected that he would be the one who suffered in the end. Anger was inevitable, but he felt more frustrated.

At this time, the guard had already brought the tripod into the room. She naturally did not dare to go back on her word, and finally had to reluctantly pay a full 90 million spirit stones.

Ninety million! Although she is worth a lot of money, the spirit stones are not blown by the wind.

What else can't I do with so many spirit stones? Now I only bought an alchemy furnace. Even if it is a spirit treasure, it is still not worth it.

I am not good at alchemy, and if I sell it, I won't be able to sell it at such a high price, so I will lose a lot.

However, now that things have come to this, she can only accept it.

The hatred in his heart was hard to erase, and coupled with the revenge of his son's murder, he could not let the other party go.

This Wanbao Conference is the best opportunity. She already had some ideas before, and now she is even more determined.

However, the witch is quite powerful, and I cannot do it alone. It would be best if I could find some helpers, and then use my own secret poison spells. Even if I can't kill her, I can at least take half of her life.

While she was thinking, suddenly, there was a knock on the door, interrupting her thoughts.

When the door opened, a beautiful woman appeared. She came closer, bowed respectfully, and then took the initiative to introduce herself. She then slowly handed over a jade slip.

"The Mountain Range of Ten Thousand Demons!" The silver-haired old woman was slightly stunned. She was naturally aware of the demon forces on this side, but they had no dealings with the Black Wind Island, and this fellow Daoist Niu was even more of a stranger to her.

Why would the other party look for me for no reason?

He reached out to take the jade slip and began to read it carefully. After a while, when he finished reading the contents, the doubts on his face disappeared immediately, and were replaced by uncontrollable ecstasy.

"Please tell Fellow Daoist Niu that I will come to visit you in person tomorrow." "In that case, I will take my leave first!" The beautiful woman did not stay, and after another respectful bow, she turned around and left the room.

"Hua Qingyao, Hua Qingyao, it seems that God wants to kill you!" The silver-haired old woman murmured to herself, and the smile on her face became more and more crazy.

The auction was still going on, and the items that appeared later did not disappoint everyone. Each one was more precious than the last, attracting all the powerful people in the Nascent Soul and Fusion realms present to scramble for them.

As for the largest number of cultivators in the Spirit Transformation Stage, they have become spectators at this moment and have no strength to participate at all.

During this period, Hua Qingyao also bid many times and bought several favorite items. What surprised her was that the old woman Xiong did not make trouble during every subsequent auction.

Maybe it's because he suffered a great loss before, so he is still scared.

She guessed this in her heart, but no matter whether this was the reason or not, it was a good thing after all.

As for Mo Juren, he never made any purchases. Firstly, the things were too precious and he could not afford them. Secondly, they did not meet his needs and there was no point in buying them.

So naturally there is no need to get involved anymore.

Time passed quickly until it got dark. With the successful sale of the last item, the auction came to an end.

……

"We may need to leave early!" Hua Qingyao suddenly said with a serious expression after returning to Yingxian Palace.

"But is there any trouble?" Mo Juren frowned slightly. Since he met him, he had never seen him look so serious.

Suddenly, he thought of the silver-haired old woman. Judging from her attitude as if she wanted to eat him alive, it was obvious that she had a deep hatred for him.

It is possible that the other party will take action at this Wanbao Conference.

But Hua Qingyao is no pushover. Her strength should not be inferior to that old woman. There is no need for her to run away in such a hurry, right?

"You guessed right, it is indeed a bit tricky." Hua Qingyao did not deny it, and then sighed slightly.

"I roughly know what you're thinking, but it's not what you think. There's someone else who poses a real threat to me. Once he attacks, I'll be fine, but it will be difficult for me to escape with you."

"There is someone else!" Mo Juren's heart moved again, and he finally understood something. The person the other party was referring to was most likely the Sky Fox King. Only this person would make Hua Qingyao so afraid.

At that moment, countless thoughts suddenly popped up in his mind.

Could this be an opportunity? If the other party really attacked, maybe he could take the opportunity to escape.

He had never forgotten for a moment how he had escaped from Hua Qingyao's clutches.

However, this so-called opportunity was somewhat out of control. After all, he couldn't be sure of the character of the Sky Fox King. What would he do if he was eliminated as well?

You can't gamble on this kind of thing. If you lose, everything is over.

"Okay, let's set off tomorrow." Mo Juren collected his thoughts and nodded in agreement. Although the Wanbao Conference would continue for quite some time and auctions of various levels would be held one after another, it would not be of much significance to him who was short of money, so it would be better for him to leave early.

He had no objection, and Xu Hanyan beside him had even less objection. However, she thought of something and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"Don't worry. After we set out tomorrow, I will be the first one to help you find your family members. If everything is fine, that would be great. You will have someone to rely on and can follow them back to the Xu family. But if something really happens and you don't want to go back alone, you can stay with me for a while." Hua Qingyao naturally knew what the other party was thinking, and then she chuckled and comforted him.

She really had a good impression of the little girl in front of her. Otherwise, with her personality, she would simply not bother to pay attention to her.

"Thank you, senior!" With such an assurance, Xu Hanyan was no longer worried and was very moved and bowed respectfully again.

"It's getting late. You two should go and rest immediately. At the same time, pack up and set out tomorrow morning." Hua Qingyao waved her hand again. Without saying anything more, her figure flashed and appeared at the entrance of the palace in the center. She then walked in and disappeared.

"Let's go too." Mo Juren glanced at Xu Hanyan, and then the two of them walked towards the courtyard next to them.

……

The next morning, in a remote place outside Jiuxian Mountain, a flying boat suddenly started up and turned into a beam of light and flew away.

Not long after, two figures suddenly came from afar. They were the Bull Demon and the old man in green from the Wan Yao Mountain Range. At this moment, both of them showed anxiety on their faces.

"Why did he leave suddenly? Did he discover something?" The Bull Demon said with a very gloomy face, looking at the sky somewhere.

"I have guessed some of the reasons, and it should have nothing to do with us." The old man in green laughed. Compared with the former, he was much calmer, and there was no trace of anxiety in his expression.

"What do you mean?" the bull demon asked immediately.

"Brother Niu, have you forgotten the person who appeared before the auction? It would be strange if that evil woman didn't run away after seeing him."

"That's true..."

After the explanation, the bull demon suddenly understood, but his anxious expression did not diminish at all:

"If you know this, why are you so calm, Brother Qingyi? What if we really let the other party get away? Wouldn't our plan be wasted?"

"You can't run away." A strange smile suddenly appeared on the face of the old man in green.

"Brother Niu, don't forget Brother Xiong. The spells he has mastered are so unpredictable that it is impossible for him to escape. We only need to determine his movements and then ambush him.

This is the most reliable method. Plus, we have the advantage in strength, so that witch will definitely not be able to escape this time."

"Of course, I have heard of Fellow Daoist Xiong's great name in the Curse Sect. With her, we don't have to worry too much about tracking." The Bull Demon nodded slightly. At this moment, he had regained his composure.

At the same time, two beams of light suddenly flew out from Jiuxian Mountain. One of them was naturally the silver-haired old woman, and the other was actually a cold-looking man wearing a conical hat and a luxurious brocade robe.

This person was holding a folding fan in his hand, shaking it constantly while looking around.

"Brother Qin, the Lord of Bear Island!" Upon seeing the person coming, the Bull Demon and the old man in green immediately bowed.

"Just now, Brother Niu suddenly sent a message saying that the evil woman seemed to know something and ran away quickly. What happened?" The silver-haired old woman was obviously very concerned about this matter and asked immediately.

"I don't know the specific reasons, but the only thing is that the other party did leave Jiuxian Mountain, and it was not long ago." The Bull Demon sighed, with a hint of shame in his words.

After a pause, he analyzed again with a serious look,

"There must be a reason for leaving in such a hurry. It seems that we need to advance our plan." (End of this chapter)
