"you win!"

Xiao Mian said these three words lightly and closed the window.

After that, outside auctions had nothing to do with him.

No matter how noisy the outside world is, no matter how crazy everyone is, no matter how excited the auctioneer is, no matter how proud Wan Dongyao is, no matter how lost Bihunji is.

Everything has nothing to do with him, Xiao Mian!

Not to mention that Wan Dongyao quoted a sky-high price of "30 million souls" as Xiao Mian wished. Even if Wan Dongyao only added 100,000 souls, Xiao Mian would not take over again.

He quoted a sky-high price of 20 million to win the soul, which was an extremely high price.

As long as Wan Dongyao is willing to take over, Xiao Mian will retreat.

As for the ownership of the heart of ghosts and gods, Xiao Miancai didn't bother to worry about it!

But Zhu Yanji had to comfort her...

In front of Jing Chu and the others, Xiao Mian took out the Beidou Si Nan Pan without any hesitation and contacted Zhu Yanji.

"Sister! I'm sorry!"

"I have already heard what the fourth sister said about the matter. Although you could not stop the other party, I, Netherworld Ghost Realm, will remember your kindness in helping me. Now that I am going to take another plan, I will not talk to you first. …”

"Sister! But you want to steal the hearts of ghosts and gods?"

"The heart of ghosts and gods cannot tolerate any loss!"

"The other party has a middle-level ancestor of Nascent Soul! Besides, this is Tianxia City after all. Do you think the Xiangfu Chamber of Commerce will let you rob their auction items?"

"... Damn it! You really fell into that damn fat man's delaying strategy!"

"Eldest sister, please be patient! If you believe what I say, just stay put!"

"This..., can you take back the hearts of ghosts and gods?"

"It's not lost, so why not take it back?"

"You! You mean..."

"Sister! See you outside Xuanji Pavilion!"

"Okay! If you can really find the heart of ghosts and gods, Xiao Mian, you will be my benefactor in the entire Netherworld and Ghost Realm. I will wait for you!"

After cutting off the contact with Zhu Yanji and seeing Jing Chu and the others looking at him like monsters, Xiao Mian looked up and down, then his face became filled with confusion.

"What? Is there something wrong, little brother?"

"You..., forget it! It's better not to say anything..."

But it was Jing Chu, who was closest to Xiao Mian, who said these words in a shocked tone, and then the three of them never looked at Xiao Mian again.

Xiao Mian touched his nose awkwardly and smiled without saying anything.

Obviously, today's auction is quite exciting to these three people...

First, Xiao Mian quoted a sky-high price of 20 million souls, and then the Yin Yang Stone was sold at a higher price of 30 million souls.

Then Xiao Mian was able to contact the Yuan Ying Ancestor in the Netherworld Ghost Realm, and then this kid clearly set up a trap so that Fairy Yao Ji didn't know it.

After spending a huge amount of 30 million souls, she actually got something she didn't want. When she realized it afterwards, wouldn't Fairy Yao Ji be crazy?

There is actually a middle-level ancestor of Nascent Soul who is deeply involved in it!

This kid!

He is usually very secretive, but how many secrets is he hiding?

No matter how much the three of them thought about it, they naturally couldn't figure out Xiao Mian's details.

After the auction, Xiao Mian and others saw Qingqiuzi waiting at the door of Xuanji Pavilion.

I don’t know if Qingqiuzi knew about Xiao Mian’s performance at the auction. In short, Qingqiuzi looked solemn at this time.

Qingqiuzi glanced at Xiao Mian with a meaningful look, and Qingqiuzi was thoughtful.

At this moment, Zhu Yanji and Heisha Ji came together, and Bihunji also walked out of Xuanji Pavilion and hurried over here.

The two of them seemed to know Qingqiuzi's identity, and they greeted Qingqiuzi as a junior, and Qingqiuzi responded politely. After all, the other party was a Nascent Soul monk from the Netherworld Ghost Realm.

"I was discussing swordsmanship with Elder Hou just now, and I was very interested. Now that I think about it, I feel that I shouldn't miss it..." Qingqiu Zi just said this, and Xiao Mian quickly responded: "It just so happens that this junior also has some alchemy issues that he wants to ask Elder Hou for advice! "

"Okay! Let's go to Yin Yang Pavilion!"

First, Qingqiuzi walked away, followed closely by Xiao Mian and the other three. Zhu Yanji and the other three glanced at each other and finally followed.

Not long after, in a quiet room in the Yang Palace of Yin Yang Pavilion.

There were only four people in the huge quiet room.

On the table in front of Xiao Mian and Zhu Yanji, there is a piece that is the same as the finale of the previous auction - the heart of ghosts and gods!

"This...is this really the heart of ghosts and gods?"

"Replace it if it's fake!"

"The one that appeared at the auction...could it be fake?"

"That is indeed a Yin Yang Stone, although it is not of sufficient weight! It only became like that after being processed by the Xiangfu Chamber of Commerce!"

"That's it! Are you saying that the Xiangfu Chamber of Commerce already has a perfect plan?"

"This is natural! They assist the evil sects such as the Three East China Sea Temples to transport the hearts of ghosts and gods, and they feel ashamed of the ghost realm. Just because they are bound by a contract, they cannot openly hate those evil people, so Shi Xiaoxiao It's a plan, so we are laying suspicion." Seeing Zhu Yanji's look of understanding, Xiao Mian did not forget to remind: "But eldest sister, please don't make this matter public. The reason why Xiangfu Chamber of Commerce handles it in such a secretive manner is that it does not want to be exposed to anyone. I think they are afraid of the Three Divine Temples of the East China Sea or the Netherworld!"

"I understand! In business, they also have their own difficulties!"

Zhu Yanji was in a good mood after regaining the heart of ghosts and gods, and actually spoke good words to Xiangfu Chamber of Commerce.

Xiao Mian was naturally happy. After handing the Heart of Ghosts and Gods to Zhu Yanji, he made an excuse and left the quiet room.

As for where Zhu Yanji and others go, it is none of his business.

Afterwards, in another quiet room, Xiao Mian found Elder Hou who was discussing the art of swordsmanship with Qingqiu Zi.

With a roll of his eyes, Xiao Mian released the little golden ape from his spirit beast ring.

With a flash of golden light, Qingqiuzi and Elder Hou's eyes shifted.

Qingqiuzi just paid it back, but when Elder Hou saw the little golden ape, his face was filled with astonishment.

"Is this a sixth-level metallic purple-eyed golden arm?"

"The elder's discernment is perfect!"

"Wait a minute! This little guy of yours seems to be a little different... the Purple-Gold Demonic Eyes!? It actually has the Purple-Golden Demonic Eyes that are signs of returning to its ancestors?"

"Is this the legendary Purple Gold Demon Eye? I don't know this yet!"

"..., you kid! Why did you let it out?"

"The junior just wants to ask the elder for it: With its qualifications and attributes, is it possible to practice the inheritance of the elder sword ape lineage? If it is possible, the junior is willing to pay a certain price, just because the senior can see that it belongs to the same lineage of apes. , teach him the art of swordsmanship!”

"There is no soul contract in this little guy's body. It is not your monster, so why do you worry about it like this? Even if I agree to you, with the inheritance value of the swordsmanship of my Sword Ape lineage, not even two or three thousand Wan Zhongling, are you willing to give it?”

"This... doesn't have to be so expensive, right?"

"What? Are you looking down on the inheritance of my sword ape lineage? It doesn't matter! You don't have to learn it! Besides, I haven't agreed to teach it yet!"

"I'll tell you the truth, senior! This little guy's mother died in childbirth when giving birth to it. His father didn't take good care of it, so he entrusted it to me. Although there is no soul contract, this junior regards it as my friend. If it can succeed, I will be grateful to you for your great wisdom!"

Saying this, Xiao Mian stood up and bowed to Elder Hou.

The little golden ape seemed to know that Xiao Mian was interceding for it. It looked at Xiao Mian and then at Elder Hou. They followed the pattern and bowed to Elder Hou repeatedly.

"That's all! This little guy has a very different spirituality. If he is not taught well, he may not do good things in the future. If another blood evil sword ape comes out, I will be guilty of a great sin!"

"Senior, did you agree?"

"But I have something to say first. If you want me to pass on the swordsmanship inheritance of the Sword Ape lineage, there is nothing wrong. Even the so-called tuition fee can be waived. I only have one condition: this little guy must stay in Tianxia City and stay with me. I teach you carefully!”

"This..." After a moment of hesitation, Xiao Mian turned to ask Little Jin Yuan: "Xiao Jin! Are you willing to follow this senior and learn the way of the sword?"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

"Are you worried about Hemerocallis?" After the little golden ape nodded, Xiao Mian pondered for a while and said, "What if I let Hemerocallis stay in Tianxia City?"

"Um!"

Almost as a matter of words, the little golden ape agreed again and again.

"You little brat! Don't you miss me at all?"

"Woooo..."

Calling softly, the little golden ape reached out and hugged Xiao Mian's thigh, reluctant to let go.

"Haha! Don't worry! I still have some things to deal with in Tianxia City, and I won't leave so soon!" After patting the little golden ape on the head, Xiao Mian thanked Elder Hou again: "The elder's kindness today will be remembered in my heart. , unforgettable!”

"It's rare that you can treat it so sincerely. In the future, it will definitely treat you so sincerely!"

After saying this, Elder Hou waved towards Xiao Mian.

Xiao Mian knew that this was Elder Hou's order to expel guests, so he gave some instructions to the little golden ape, and then followed Qingqiu Zi out of the quiet room.

After that, they found Jingchu and the other three people in another quiet room. Qingqiuzi was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he let the four of them spend a night practicing meditation in the Yin Yang Pavilion.

The next day at Sangan, a group of people, led by Qingqiuzi, walked out of Yin Yang Pavilion, Datong Hall, and Tianxia City.

When everyone returned to Hujiazhai, it was already noon.

While Jing and Chu were saying goodbye one by one, Qingqiuzi called out to Xiao Mian.

"Do you know what Elder Hou talked about with me?"

"Isn't it kendo?"

"No! Elder Hou told me: In the past few days, Tianxia City seems to be peaceful, but in fact it is extremely chaotic - especially at night!"

"Night? That's why senior stayed at Yin Yang Pavilion last night? What on earth is it that makes even you, senior, so cautious?"

"...I don't know! I just heard from Elder Hou that many younger generation disciples of Xiangfu Chamber of Commerce have disappeared inexplicably in Tianxia City!"

"Missing!?"

"In other words - I don't know whether I will live or die!"

"What did the Xiangfu Chamber of Commerce say? Could it be that they suspected you, senior..."

"Elder Hou didn't say that! After all, when something happened in Tianxia City before, we had been in Hujiazhai, under the eyes of Elder Hu." When saying this, Qingqiuzi was also quite happy. If he was suspected by the Xiangfu Chamber of Commerce, Yes, that's no small matter. After calming down, Qingqiuzi said: "Be careful these days..."

"yes!"

Obviously, Qingqiuzi or Elder Hou must be the subject of some suspicion.

This object of suspicion must be hostile to Xiao Mian.

Otherwise, Qingqiuzi wouldn't have to warn Xiao Mian alone like this...
