Daoist Cangqiu's cultivation was not particularly high among the Golden Immortals, but he was exceptionally skilled at refining artifacts.
Many of the Golden Immortals present had bought Magic Treasures from him.
Once he spoke up, two other Golden Immortals who had also been interested tacitly fell silent and nodded to Daoist Cangqiu from afar.
Fairy Qiongyin waited a moment. Seeing that no one else offered a bid, she announced that the transaction was complete.
Just as Xu Changxing was waiting for the next Heavenly Material or Earthly Treasure to appear, Yan Guyin suddenly sent him a voice transmission:
"Old Cangqiu's strength is nothing special, but his artifact-refining skills have let him ride the wind and waves in our circle.
"With your aptitude, it won't be long before you surpass that old ghost."
Xu Changxing waved a hand. "I only broke through a few thousand years ago. How could I compare with Senior Cangqiu?"
Yan Guyin shook his head. "Why couldn't you? He's good at refining artifacts, and you're good at refining pills.
"Besides, your talent in the Dao of Alchemy far exceeds his talent in artifact refining.
"If my guess is right, people will start comparing you with Old Cangqiu before long.
"That old ghost Cangqiu is terribly petty. He'll probably come looking for trouble with you over it.
"When that happens, don't be afraid of him. Just hit back."
Xu Changxing was slightly taken aback.
Although he had heard that Daoist Cangqiu had an eccentric temper, he had not expected the man might come looking for trouble with him over something like this.
After some thought, he asked, "Does Daoist Cangqiu have a grudge against the Moonflower Sect?"
Yan Guyin laughed. "As if he'd dare hold a grudge against our Moonflower Sect!
"He only has a grudge against me.
