He'll Have to Thank Us!
Mo Tianxing's expression kept changing, which made Xiao Yuan, who was standing next to him, somewhat suspicious.
Why does it feel like this old man really possesses the Bodhi Transformation Saliva?
After failing to obtain any information about the Bodhi Transformation Saliva from Market Master Yao, Xiao Yuan knew that the Black Emperor Sect's auction was unlikely to attract many Dou Zong experts.
And that was indeed the case. The commotion just now only attracted the scum of the Soul Hall and Mo Tianxing, the host.
What this signifies is self-evident.
But Xiao Yuan, still wanting to give it a try, set a trap.
They wanted to judge whether the old man possessed the Bodhi Transformation Saliva by observing Mo Tianxing's reaction.
Now it seems that even if he didn't, he must have known about the Bodhi Transformation Saliva, otherwise he wouldn't have shown such an expression.
This casual, unintentional act brought unexpected rewards, much to Xiao Yuan's delight.
If the Bodhi Transformation Saliva could indeed be found in the Black-Corner Region, it would be a great thing for Xiao Yi Xian.
"May I speak to you in private?"
After hesitating for a moment, Mo Tianxing finally spoke.
"Let's go downstairs and talk. With them guarding outside, no one will be able to eavesdrop on our conversation."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuan jumped off the roof and went into the room.
Mo Tianxing hesitated for a moment, but still followed him into the room.
"If Sect Master Mo truly possesses the Bodhi Transformation Saliva, then I will trade the Break-Sect Pill to you. But if you dare to deceive me, then don't blame me for being ruthless."
Xiao Yuan sat down in a chair, picked up his teacup, took a small sip, and then looked at Mo Tianxing with a half-smile.
"Now that we've decided to trade the Break-Sect Pill, I naturally won't make empty promises. However, as you know, the Bodhi Transformation Saliva is something that can glimpse the Dou Sheng realm, and a Break-Sect Pill..."
Mo Tianxing hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't help wanting to raise the price.
"Sect Leader Mo, you might fool others with your words, but I am an alchemist myself, and my teacher is Eighth-Tier Alchemic Grandmaster. I have some superficial understanding of this Bodhi Transformation Saliva. Apart from containing a large amount of life force and being able to temper the body, its other effects are probably not as mysterious as the legends say. If that were the case, would Sect Leader Mo give up the path to advancing to Dou Sheng and instead seek the Break-Sect Pill to cultivate the next Dou Zong powerhouse for the Black Emperor Sect?"
Xiao Yuan said with a cold smile.
"Of course, it doesn't matter if Sect Master Mo is unwilling to trade. At worst, I can ask my teacher for a Bodhi Transformation Saliva after I return to the Danta. Keep this one for yourself. I want to see if this thing that you've been boasting about can actually cultivate a Dou Zong powerhouse like the Break-Sect Pill."
After saying that, Xiao Yuan raised his hand, as if to see the guest out.
"So this young lady is from the Danta. No wonder she's already Sixth Grade Alchemist at such a young age, and her strength is so terrifying. Truly, a great teacher produces a great student. Personally, I think it would be better for this Bodhi Transformation Saliva girl to do business with me. Asking her teacher for Medicinal Herbs is probably not an easy thing for someone as proud as her. Everything can be discussed!"
Mo Tianxing's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this. So this woman came from the Danta; no wonder her methods were so ruthless! Moreover, she had an Eighth Grade Alchemist as her master. He absolutely had to do everything in his power to befriend someone like her! That damn idiot Qi Shan actually gave such a distinguished guest a bad impression of the Black Emperor Sect; he truly deserved to die!
Mo Tianxing couldn't help but drag the dead Qi Shan out and curse him again. Then a kind smile appeared on his face, and he said, "To be honest, I've had this Bodhi Transformation Saliva for a while now, but I haven't been able to figure it out. So, as you say, Break-Sect Pill and exchange it for the Bodhi Transformation Saliva. What do you think? Consider it making friends."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuan's expression softened slightly, and he nodded, saying, "Sect Leader Mo is indeed a decisive and straightforward person. Where is the Bodhi Transformation Saliva? I need to inspect the goods."
"This item is valuable, and I don't have it with me. Could you please wait a moment while I retrieve it before we make the transaction? Don't you also need to discuss the Break-Sect Pill with your younger brother?"
Mo Tianxing said with a smile.
"What Sect Leader Mo said makes sense, so let's do as you say."
Xiao Yuan nodded, indicating that Mo Tianxing do as he pleased.
After Mo Tianxing left, Xiao Yi Xian and Xiao Yan both entered the room, their faces showing joy.
"Brother, now that we've found the Medicinal Herbs to save your sister-in-law, you can take this pill and use it."
Xiao Yan handed the Break-Sect Pill to Xiao Yuan.
Between brothers, there's no need for many words.
"Um."
Xiao Yuan accepted the pill and nodded.
"Thank you very much, Fourth Brother."
Xiao Yi Xian, standing to the side, also expressed her gratitude earnestly, but her cheeks flushed red after she finished speaking.
"Sister-in-law, you're too kind. My brother and I are brothers from the same mother. It's just a pill. We're family, so let's not be so formal!"
Xiao Yan said with a smile.
"Um."
Xiao Yi Xian smiled and nodded upon hearing this, feeling relieved. It seemed that Xiao Yuan's family was not difficult to deal with.
"However, I need to add something to this Break-Sect Pill. I don't trust the people from the Black Emperor Sect."
Xiao Yuan suppressed his smile, then took out a pill, rubbed his fingers together, and two tiny flames transformed into a stream of air that slowly merged into the pill.
These are the two types of Qi cultivated by Xiao Yuan: Shao Yin Sovereign Fire and Jue Yin Wind Wood. The source of the two Heavenly Flames within Xiao Yuan's body is these two types of Qi.
Neither Xiao Yuan nor Xiao Yan possessed the ability to conceal the Heavenly Flames within the already refined Break-Sect Pill.
But if you're angry, it's much easier.
This is Xiao Yuan's own advantage, which others cannot learn.
A moment later, Mo Tianxing returned, bringing with him the Bodhi Transformation Saliva.
As Mo Tianxing opened the jade box containing the Bodhi Transformation Saliva, the Bodhi Transformation Saliva itself revealed its true form.
Inside the jade box, a faint, mysterious glow lingered. As the light spread, a fist-sized, slightly emerald-green, viscous substance slowly wriggled and drifted within it, like a mollusc. As it moved, layers of liquid surged, making it appear as if it were alive.
This viscous, emerald-green liquid floated effortlessly within the jade box, as if it possessed sentience, slowly drifting about. A strange aura permeated its surface, making it appear exceptionally magical.
If the jade box hadn't been large enough, this item would have already drifted away.
At the same time, a pleasant fragrance wafted out, instantly invigorating the spirits of the four people present.
"Indeed, it is the Bodhi Transformation Saliva."
When Xiao Yuan saw Xiao Yan wink at him, he understood that Yao Lao had been secretly investigating, had confirmed the authenticity of the Bodhi Transformation Saliva and had not tampered with it in any way. He then smiled.
"Sect Master Mo, this Break-Sect Pill is yours."
Xiao Yuan handed the pill to Mo Tianxing.
As for tampering with the pills, Xiao Yuan felt no shame whatsoever. He had already noticed the way Mo Ya had looked at him and Xiao Yi Xian earlier.
While he wouldn't necessarily kill him, he wouldn't mind annihilating the Black Emperor Sect Black Emperor Sect if they didn't know what was good for them.
Mo Tianxing had also taken the Break-Sect Pill in the past, so he was naturally able to distinguish between them. After examining the jade bottle, a look of joy appeared on his face.
"As expected of a top disciple taught by Alchemic Grandmaster Danta, this quality is even better than the Break-Sect Pill I obtained from Medicine Emperor Han Feng back then. Thank you very much."
Mo Tianxing put away the Break-Sect Pill and cupped his hands in greeting.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuan and the other two smiled.
He should thank us, actually.
"Now that the deal has been made and the misunderstanding has been cleared up, why don't the three of you stay at my Black Emperor Pavilion for a while? The environment there is quite nice, and there are some good Medicinal Herbs and Dou Technique up for auction in a few days. You three are honored guests of my Black Emperor Sect, so why not do me the honor of taking a look?"
Mo Tianxing adopted a very humble attitude. He was well aware of what the words "Danta" meant in Central State and on this continent.
"Since Sect Leader Mo has so kindly invited us, we will naturally not refuse. However, we would like to trouble Sect Leader Mo to find an elegant and quiet place, as I do not like noise."
Having obtained the Bodhi Transformation Saliva, Xiao Yuan still gave Mo Tianxing some face and said with a smile.
"No problem, the three of you, please follow me."
Mo Tianxing smiled and then led the way.
After the uproar caused by the alchemy incident that day, almost the entire Black Emperor City was focused on the terrifyingly powerful woman in white and the mysterious alchemist. However, after hearing that Mo Tianxing them to the Black Emperor Pavilion and given them a beautiful residence to themselves, and that the Black Emperor Pavilion had even sent people to act as security personnel around them to drive away irrelevant people, the situation became even more complicated.
Some people who came with ulterior motives had no choice but to leave.
Even Mo Ya, who had a high opinion of himself, was strictly restricted by Mo Tianxing and had no chance to see the two beauties he longed for.
Time passed quietly, and three days later, as the first rays of dawn appeared on the horizon, the Black Emperor City, which had been silent all night, suddenly burst forth with tremendous vitality. The empty streets were quickly filled with figures pouring out from all directions, and all these figures were heading in the same direction: the huge auction square in the city center!
Today is the grandest auction in the Black-Corner Region in the past ten years, attracting countless powerful individuals, and its influence extends to every corner of the Black-Corner Region.
A ray of sunlight spread along the window, then climbed into the room, finally shining on the two beautiful women in white dresses embracing each other on the bed.
Xiao Yi Xian lay peacefully in Xiao Yuan. Over the years, anyone who had physical contact with her had died a terrible death. The old couple who took her in feared she was an ominous person, and all the villagers who attacked her died.
Being able to be held in Xiao Yuan's arms without worrying about hurting him has greatly relieved her of the psychological pressure she has been under.
Of course, the two of them could only rub and knead each other through their clothes; they couldn't possibly do anything real.
Xiao Yan was right next door, with keen senses. In addition, Xiao Yi Xian's poison body was powerful, so Xiao Yuan couldn't possibly touch it while simultaneously circulating his Heavenly Flames to neutralize the toxins.
I'm so tired.
"You're awake? No rush. If you want to lie down, then lie down for a while. The people from the Soul Hall have been dealt with, so we don't need to be worried anymore."
Sensing that Xiao Yi Xian had woken up, Xiao Yuan smiled and said.
"No need, you should get up and wash up first. You still need to put on makeup, don't you?"
Xiao Yi Xian's smile was somewhat mischievous.
"Sigh, pretending to be a woman is really tiring."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuan sighed, shook her head helplessly, then jumped off the bed to wash up. After that, she took out a bunch of tools, put on makeup, and the aloof beauty Third Sister Xiao, was back online.
Afterwards, Xiao Yuan put on his Veiled Hat, and led the Xiao Yi Xian, who had also finished washing up and was wearing a veil, out of the pavilion.
Xiao Yan had been waiting for a long time. When he saw the two beauties come out, he couldn't help but shake his head. Then, with a strange expression, he said, "Brother, I think it would be good for you to be the third sister from now on. There are four of us brothers. Father doesn't lack sons, but he does lack a daughter."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle, while Xiao Yuan's face darkened. He then walked up to Xiao Yan and coldly snorted, "Xiao Yan, I don't think this is a bad idea. But when I'm arm in arm with you, going through thick and thin together, our Xun'er sister Xun'er shouldn't be angry, right?"
"Brother, I was wrong."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's face turned pale, and he immediately surrendered.
If Xun'er misunderstands this, and Third Brother adds fuel to the fire, he'll definitely be in deep trouble.
After all, for Xun'er, her Third Brother's words were almost as reliable as those of her own brother.
Moreover, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, even he wouldn't have believed that his Third Brother could transform into a stunningly beautiful, aloof woman.
"Alright, I'm not teasing you anymore. How could Xun'er possibly believe you're a womanizer? You're so stupid. Put on the black robe so no one recognizes you. Otherwise, my disguise won't be able to be hidden either."
Xiao Yuan smiled and patted Xiao Yan on the shoulder.
"Good."
Xiao Yan nodded upon hearing this, and then skillfully put on the large black robe.
"Let's go. Hopefully, today's auction will be fruitful for us."
Looking at Xiao Yan, who was fully prepared, Xiao Yuan smiled, then condensed his wings and flew away, with Xiao Yan and Xiao Yi Xian following closely behind.
Because Mo Tianxing had given prior notice, the three of them did not queue at the entrance of the auction house like ordinary people. Instead, they were led directly into the auction house through the Black Emperor Sect by the guide.
Looking at the auction hall, which was packed with countless seats, Xiao Yuan and his companions couldn't help but marvel. This was the first time they had ever seen an auction of this scale. Compared to this, the auctions they had attended in the past were nothing compared to this one.
The huge auction hall was already full of people, so the various sounds were mixed together and sounded a little noisy. Fortunately, the three of them were VIPs and were led directly into the most prestigious private room by a maid. There were no other people inside, but a quick-witted auction house steward was waiting at the door for Xiao Yuan and the others to give instructions.
