Seeking the Immortal Way

When Jiu Zun saw this Profound Que Gloves, his eyes immediately lit up. All of his attention was focused on this pair of gloves, and his eyes revealed an expression of affection.

Here, most cultivators used swords and sabers. Even if these gloves were high-grade spiritual treasures, not many were interested in them. Therefore, Ninth Lord was determined to get his hands on them.

First of all, it was because of his high status, profound Cultivation Level, and no one was willing to compete with him. Moreover, since he was rich and powerful, it was not something ordinary people could compare to, so he kept the item in his own pocket very quickly.

In the blink of an eye, an entire day had passed by and the auction had gone on for a third of its time. However, Lin Yan was not really interested after looking at the items to be auctioned.

Mo Xuan was the same, but he did not have high hopes for the rest of the items. Although there were a few heaven defying Pills and ingredients, these items were all hot potatoes, and once they appeared, it would definitely cause a lot of people to fight over them over them. The price would probably exceed their imaginations, and these items would only be used when their cultivation realm was higher.

Even if he was to auction it now, he would probably be targeted by others. Although he had the money to win the auction, after the auction, the experts would definitely stare at him covetously. They might not even know how he died.

When night came, Ninth Master still ordered a table of good wine and dishes at Phoenix Restaurant. The three of them sat together, and continuously told about what they had seen and heard today at the auction, especially the time when Lin Yan had broken the restriction on the Star Sieve Sect's sword.

Mo Xuan laughed and said: "At that time, you all probably didn't notice, but the audience all opened their mouths wide, as though an egg could be placed inside, their eyes revealed a look of disbelief, all of them froze on the spot, and then looked at Lin Yan, their expressions extremely funny."

The Ninth Elder smiled and shook his head: "This is nothing. When the people at the auction knew that Lin Yan's Star Gauze Sword was a high quality spirit sword, their expressions were all exaggerated. Furthermore, there was a hint of regret on their faces, from the looks of it, they would never have thought that it would actually be a high quality spirit sword."

Lin Yan laughed and said: "Actually the most awkward ones are the two elders from the Ruo Lin Clan in room number 7 far away, their faces carried a kind of inconceivable look, but they have to try their best to hide their expressions using a tranquil state of mind, so the smile on their face is not at all natural, it looks like they are unhappy, they look displeased but also want to laugh, and they are even happy not making a sound. That smile must be in the corner of their eyes, probably like this."

After saying that, Lin Yan and the others imitated the expressions of those people, making Ninth Master and Mo Xuan laugh out loud.

Lin Yan felt that it was time to bid farewell to Ninth Elder. He looked at Mo Xuan, then smiled at Ninth Master, "Ninth Master, I think we will not participate in the auction from now on. Tomorrow morning, we will leave for another city."

Hearing Lin Yan's words, Jiu Zun revealed an astonished expression, and said to Lin Yan: "The auction is not over yet, furthermore, the closer to the end of the auction, the more valuable items appear, don't you guys want to compete with everyone for the items that come later?"

Lin Yan laughed and shook his head, then said: "Even if we were to bid for the last few items, so what? After all, our realms are low, and if we were to use the latter items, it would truly be a waste. If we were to use it in an auction, it would definitely be targeted by others, and they would be like tigers eyeing prey, if that's the case, I am afraid that the losses will not outweigh the gains."

Ninth Elder nodded his head as he felt that Lin Yan's words made sense. After all, in this world, the strong were respected, and if one did not possess sufficient strength and had many good things in their hands, one could become a hot potato to burn their hands on, bringing about a fatal disaster.

Thinking about that, Ninth Master laughed, and nodded at Lin Yan: "That's true, but you don't have to be so hasty, even if you don't want to bid, and just sit in the private room and watch the show, why do you have to be like this?"

Lin Yan shook his head and said: "After all, in this auction, I have already acquired a high grade spirit sword, and I bought it at a low price. If this really makes some people jealous, I'm afraid that after the auction, they will think of a way to deal with me, so, when I leave, I'm afraid that I will be targeted, and my life will be in danger."

After pausing for a moment, Lin Yan continued to speak, "I know that in this Shuo Chuan City, Ninth Elder is of high moral standing, his skills are profound, he can protect us without harming us, but there is a good saying, he is not afraid of thieves, and he cannot protect us for the rest of our lives. So, it is better for us to leave this place quickly, by the time they react, we would have already disappeared without a trace."

Hearing Lin Yan's explanation, Ninth Master nodded his head, and said: "That's true, then I will not keep you guys, plus there has never been a banquet that does not disperse, and since you all want to leave Shuo Chuan City, I have nothing to say, the martial arts world is very broad, if you encounter any problems in the future, you can come here and ask for my help, I promise I will do my best."

Lin Yan smiled and nodded, then chatted about some light topics, the topic of departure wasn't as heavy as before. The three ate quite happily for this meal, and only after it was deep into the night did the three go their separate ways.

The morning of the second day, just as half of the sun's head appeared above the mountain peak, Lin Yan and Mo Xuan had already woken up. After eating a few simple meals, the two of them set off on their journey.

At this moment, there were very few people on the street. There were only a few who had woken up early to do business and were preparing to start their business. The rest should still be resting.

Passing Ninth Elder's gambling den, Lin Yan smiled as he glanced at the gambling den's entrance. He then explained to Mo Xuan the details of the incident that happened in the gambling den, which surprised him quite a bit.

While they were talking, the two of them had already left Shuo Chuan City and were walking further and further away.

As Mo Xuan walked, he said to Lin Yan: "If we keep going forward, there is a place called Wu Zhou City, but we are a long distance from this place. That is to say, if we were to travel at a speed like this, it is very likely that we would have to sleep in the wilderness for over ten days, all the way until we enter Wu Zhou City."
