C128 Wings of Wind and Lightning
The host took out a scroll and showed it to everyone.
"However, this scroll is an ancient language. We have deciphered it for more than a month. In the end, we have deciphered most of the words and are barely able to cultivate it. If we can decipher it in full, this is a very high grade Arcane Art. The starting price is 2,000 Arcane Arts."
However, after the host finished speaking, there were not many people who responded. Only a few people raised their cards symbolically. After all, even the three major powers had failed to decipher the ancient language. These people were even more incapable of deciphering it. They could only cultivate the broken pieces that they had deciphered. Therefore, the price did not rise much. It took a long time for it to rise to two thousand five hundred crystals.
"Kid, bid for it! This Arcane Art is very good."
Prof. Ghost's voice suddenly sounded in Lee Shaoyu's mind.
"2,600 crystals!"
Lee Shaoyu was initially tempted, but he was still thinking about it. Now that Prof. Ghost had said that the Arcane Art was extraordinary, Lee Shaoyu would naturally participate in the auction.
"Three thousand crystals!"
Qi Hong suddenly increased the price to three thousand crystals. He had been observing Lee Shaoyu's actions all this time, waiting for Lee Shaoyu to bid so that he could raise the price.
"Three thousand one hundred crystals."
"Three thousand three hundred crystals!"
"Three thousand four hundred crystals!"
"Three thousand six hundred crystals!"
Every time Lee Shaoyu increased the price, Qi Hong would increase the price as well. Obviously, he wanted to take revenge for the previous arrow. Lee Shaoyu was speechless. He didn't want to compete with him just now. He didn't expect this man to be so vengeful. Therefore, he couldn't show too much desire.
Thinking of this, Lee Shaoyu shrugged at Qi Hong. Then, he put down the number plate in his hand, indicating that he would not continue. This made Qi Hong very angry. Originally, he wanted to create some trouble for him, but he didn't expect that trouble would end up in his hands. How could he be willing to spend more than three thousand crystals to buy a Arcane Art that could only be read and understood?
"Humph, he's just a poor man."
Thinking of this, Qi Hong glanced at Lee Shaoyu and said coldly.
"Four thousand crystals!"
Lee Shaoyu was furious. He raised his number plate. How could he be looked down upon so much? At the same time, he looked at Qi Hong meaningfully. He seemed to be provoking Qi Hong.
Qi Hong smiled. He thought for a while and did not increase the price. If the provocation did not work, he would smash his own hand. His goal was to make Lee Shaoyu feel uncomfortable.
In the end, the Wings of Wind and Thunder were sold for four thousand crystals. Qi Hong gave Lee Shaoyu a cold look and turned to leave.
Lee Shaoyu also went to the backstage to receive the item. He couldn't help but smile when he saw the Arcane Art scroll. The text was the same as the text that the Oracle had taught him. He knew it all. He had really earned it this time.
"Kid! You are still fighting with my father? What kind of dog are you?!"
Lee Shaoyu had just walked out of the auction house when he was stopped by a blue-clothed youth. He scolded Lee Shaoyu jokingly. When the surrounding Cultivators saw him, they immediately took a detour. Clearly, they also knew this young man.
"Get lost!"
Lee Shaoyu directly slapped over, sending the blue-clothed youth flying. This person was simply sick. He did not know this person, but he actually scolded him when he came up. This temper of his was unbearable.
"Boy! You are courting death!"
Qi Hong, who was dressed in a brocade robe, saw this scene as soon as he stepped out of the door. He immediately slapped Lee Shaoyu. The young man that Lee Shaoyu had just hit was his second son. This slap was the same as slapping his face.
"Get lost too!"
Lee Shaoyu stepped on Qi Hong's face. Qi Hong was merely an Early Qi-sea Stage Cultivator. How could he be a match for Lee Shaoyu? In just a single exchange, he was slapped by Lee Shaoyu.
"Just you wait!"
Qi Hong also felt that he was not a match for Lee Shaoyu, so he was shocked. Then, he ran away with his second son and a few lackeys.
Lee Shaoyu would not wait for him here. Instead, he walked straight to the teleportation formation and prepared to go to the Ironsword Sect.
However, just as Lee Shaoyu was about to leave the teleportation formation, Qi Hong brought his men back. Beside Qi Hong was a middle-aged man in a green robe. There was a long sword hanging from his waist. It seemed that he was the reinforcement that Qi Hong had invited. Moreover, that man's cultivation base wasn't low, and he gave Lee Shaoyu quite a bit of pressure. He should be a Spirit Gathering Stage warrior!
"Kid, this is Venerable Liu Deng, who is stationed in Qingye City by the Ironsword Sect. Hurry up and greet him!"
Qi Hong seemed to be very confident this time, because he had invited a big shot, the person in charge of the Ironsword Sect stationed in Qingye City. The Qi Family had quite a large influence in Qingye City. Naturally, they had some relationship with this Liu Deng. After offering a generous gift, Liu Deng agreed to come and vent his anger on Qi Hong.
"Kid, you are the one who injured the Qi Family's Patriarch and Second Young Master? Do you really want to leave just because you've done such a wicked thing?"
Liu Deng already knew Lee Shaoyu's strength, and he didn't seem to have any background. He immediately spoke arrogantly to Lee Shaoyu with an arrogant look on his face. However, he did have the qualifications to do so. After all, he was a disciple of the Ironsword Sect, and he was the most powerful person in Qing Ye City.
"So it's Venerable Liu Deng. I apologize for my disrespect."
Lee Shaoyu cupped his fists at Liu Deng with a smile. However, in Qi Hong's eyes, he thought that Lee Shaoyu was afraid. Immediately, he was in high spirits. His head was about to reach the sky, and he was sure that Lee Shaoyu was going to lose today. After all, this was the territory of the Ironsword Sect. No one dared to offend the people of the Ironsword Sect. Although they had spent a lot of money this time, it was worth it.
"Hurry up and kowtow to Patriarch Qi to apologize. It will save me a lot of effort."
Liu Deng had accepted the gifts from the other party. Naturally, he had to vent his anger for Qi Hong. Now, he wanted to humiliate Lee Shaoyu. At the same time, he placed his hand on the long sword at his waist. His intention was very obvious. He wanted to make a move if he didn't apologize.
"I wonder if Venerable Liu knows what this is?"
Lee Shaoyu maintained his smile. He slowly took out a token from his Storage Ring and placed it in front of Liu Deng. It was the token that Soong Silun had given him. He didn't expect it to come in handy here today.
When Liu Deng saw the token in Lee Shaoyu's hand, his originally arrogant expression froze. Then, his expression changed drastically. He took the token and examined it carefully. When he found that it was indeed Soong Silun's token, he felt a huge wave in his heart. As the Law Enforcement Elder of the Ironsword Sect, Soong Silun was in charge of killing. Furthermore, he had a strange personality and rarely had any friends. Therefore, his token was rarely given to outsiders.
However, this young man in front of him had Soong Silun's token. It was enough to prove that this young man had a deep relationship with Soong Silun. He had kicked an iron wall. If he didn't handle it well, his job in Qingye City would be finished. Thinking of this, Liu Deng couldn't help but glance at Qi Hong with resentment. His gaze was so intense that he wanted to skin Qi Hong alive. It gave Qi Hong a big fright.
"I wonder if Young Hero has come to Qingye City. I, Liu Deng, have failed to welcome him. I hope Young Hero can forgive me."
Liu Deng instantly changed into a flattering smile. Then, he respectfully handed the token back to Lee Shaoyu. Then, he turned his head and slapped Qi Hong's face, turning it into a fierce expression.
"Qi Hong, hurry up and apologize to Young Hero. Thank Young Hero for not killing you!"
Qi Hong was stunned. He didn't understand how things had changed so quickly. Liu Deng, who had called him brother just now, suddenly turned hostile. However, he didn't dare to offend Liu Deng. The situation had gone beyond his expectations. Qi Hong just stood there in a daze.
"There is no need to apologize." Lee Shaoyu looked at Qi Hong and said, "However, because someone bid against me on purpose, I spent a lot of crystals to buy a scroll of Arcane Art."
"I have eyes but cannot see Mount Tai. I hope Young Hero can forgive me. These crystals will be my compensation."
Liu Deng glared at Qi Hong. Qi Hong quickly took out a Storage Ring from his pocket and handed it to Lee Shaoyu.
"I am going to the Ironsword Sect to pay a visit to Big Brother Soong Silun."
Lee Shaoyu took the Storage Ring. He was too lazy to argue with Qi Hong and expressed his intention.
"Young Hero, come here. Our teleportation formation can reach the Iron Sword City. I will lead the way for Young Hero. I hope that Young Hero will be able to say a few words for me when he sees Elder Song."
Before Lee Shaoyu could finish his sentence, Liu Deng had already enthusiastically placed a Storage Ring in Lee Shaoyu's hand. It was the heavy gift that Qi Hong had given him just now. Now, he had directly passed it to Lee Shaoyu, afraid that Lee Shaoyu would say bad things about him in front of Soong Silun. * Hong Long...... * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
"This... it's easy to say..."
Lee Shaoyu smiled gently and put the Storage Ring away. Someone had given him a gift, so of course he had to accept it. At the same time, he sighed that this Liu Deng really knew how to behave. No wonder he was able to blend in and guard this fat man outside.
Liu Deng personally sent Lee Shaoyu to the teleportation formation. The people guarding the teleportation formation naturally did not dare to neglect him. They directly cleared out all the Cultivators in the surroundings and specially opened the teleportation formation to Iron Sword City for Lee Shaoyu.
Lee Shaoyu originally wanted to pay, but Liu Deng grabbed the bag from the disciple's hand with a terrified expression. He respectfully handed it to Lee Shaoyu and said, "I will bear the cost of Young Hero opening the teleportation formation this time." After saying that, he personally ran to the opening mechanism of the teleportation formation, personally opening the teleportation formation. He said with a smile, "Take care, Young Hero."
"Thank you, Venerable Liu."
Lee Shaoyu couldn't help but sigh with emotion. It was good to have a powerful background. Even Spirit Gathering Stage experts treated him like this. He didn't know when his Huanyu Alliance would be able to achieve such an effect.
With a flash of white light, Lee Shaoyu disappeared from the teleportation formation. Only then did Liu Deng arrive in front of Qi Hong as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders. He gave Qi Hong a fierce glare.
"What's the situation, Venerable Liu?"
Qi Hong asked Liu Deng with a blank look on his face.
"I was almost killed by you. This is Elder Soong Silun's friend! In the future, find out the background of others before making a move!"
Liu Deng said coldly, then turned around and left.
"This kid is too good at pretending. If I had said it earlier, I wouldn't have come to find trouble with him!"
Qi Hong's face immediately turned livid. There was simply no words to describe his bitterness.
