Mortals get a golden finger for immortal cultivation every year

Chapter 426 Zhang Ruochen vs. Chu Siyuan
"You don't really want to kill her, do you? If you kill her, it would be the same as falling out with Luo Xu. And Jiezi Luo Shuihan is a descendant of Luo Xu."

Seeing Zhao Shuang's increasingly cold gaze and expression, the painting saint Chu Siyuan could only smile bitterly and said.

Even for Luo Xu's sake, he couldn't ignore Lin Suxian's life or death. But that was all he was concerned about.

Otherwise, he would have completely fallen out with Zhao Shuang.

Once they fall out, the ones who will be in trouble will be the disciples of their painting sect.

Who is Zhao Shuang? Any one of Ji Tianwang, Jie Zi, and Shao Zun can stand on equal footing with him, the Saint of Painting, and his future is limitless.

In short, we can't afford to offend!
……

"Palace Master, the Painting Saint wants you to leave the Pearl Light Pavilion and return to the sect. Doesn't this mean that your life is in danger?"

Ouyang Feng, the son of the Moon Worshiping Demon Cult, came to Lin Suxian's side, with a worried look on his face, and said respectfully.

"That's indeed what the Painting Saint meant, but I don't intend to leave. I would like to see who in the entire Kunlun Realm dares to take my life." Lin Suxian said coldly.

"Besides, I've already guessed which faction it is. This will also help the leader solve some problems."

"Palace Master, you mean the apostate saint?"

Ouyang Feng was shocked.

"Besides them, there probably won't be another one."

"However, since they are seeking death, I will not be polite."

Lin Suxian said with considerable confidence.

"But since the Saint of Painting has come personally to remind us, I'm afraid the apostate saint who came this time is extraordinary."

Ouyang Feng still had some concerns and said worriedly.

"It's okay, nothing will happen." Lin Suxian was quite calm and didn't care about it at all.

Seeing this, Ouyang Feng naturally didn't say anything more.

After all, he had said everything that needed to be said. Since Lin Suxian insisted on doing so, he had no choice.
Afterwards, she heard Lin Suxian's various instructions and arrangements. In short, she wanted to make sure that the saint who came to Zhuguang Pavilion to deal with her would never return.

Lin Suxian had no idea that it was Zhao Shuang who was going to teach her a lesson this time.

At the same time, all her plans and arrangements had fallen into Zhao Shuang's ears.

However, Zhao Shuang didn't care about anything, but instead set his eyes on a semi-saint who came.

It was none other than Zhang Ruoji, the first-class star envoy of the black market.

Today, Zhang Ruoji is still the Ruochen Star Envoy of the First-Class Hall in the black market.

The position of the young master is still Di Yi, who is also an incarnation of Zhao Shuang.

After all, the Yipintang in the black market is also a huge force, so it is natural to gradually take control of it.

Today, the East Region Black Market Yipintang, Young Master Di Yi, Red Desire Star Envoy, and Orange Moon Star Envoy are all his people.
As for Zhang Ruoji, the envoy of Ruochen Star, he would naturally not cry as long as he was asked for help.

After all, there are still many things that need his help.

The other party's purpose of coming here is for the Holy Soul.

Zhao Shuang is also very clear about this.

But Zhao Shuang came this time not only to teach Lin Suxian a lesson and help his wife Ling Feiyu vent her anger, but also to get the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron. He originally thought that Zhang Ruoji would not be here.

Unfortunately, the other party still came, which was really unexpected.

But at this point, there is nothing that can be done.

We can only make them stop when the time comes.

This is not a difficult task. He has never lost when it comes to Holy Stones.

What's more, he is not the only competitor.

Then, just as Zhao Shuang was thinking about how to get the good stuff.

The Moon Worshiping Demon Cult Saint who was in charge of the auction, the woman in red, had already spoken.

"The first auction item is the Hanging Jade. It's a type of holy jade. Wearing it not only helps you calm your mind, but also draws spiritual energy from the surrounding heaven and earth within a hundred miles, creating a mobile spiritual place for cultivation."

"Starting price: 10 million spirit crystals."

……

Zhao Shuang was not very interested in the first few items for auction, because they were of little use to him, so they fell into the hands of other people, especially the last three dead wood pills, which were directly bought by Zhang Ruoji.

Obviously, this fortune is not small.

The auction items after the Dead Wood Pill included secret manuals of sacred arts, elixirs thousands of years old, holy artifacts, and holy pills.

Zhao Shuang was not very interested in these things either. It was not until the fifty-odd items were taken out for auction that he became interested. However, it was not because they were of any use to him.

But it is useful to Zhang Ruoji.

The holy soul of the Green Armor Holy Elephant is sealed in a palm-sized bronze incense burner.
Rays of cyan light shot out from the holes in the incense burner, forming a hazy pattern. Faintly, one could hear the roar of an elephant emanating from the incense burner.

Seeing this, Zhao Shuang glanced at Zhang Ruoji, who did not initiate the auction, but asked the Grand Marshal next to him to buy it.

After all, he and Kong Hongbi had already clashed. If he bid on it himself, Kong Hongbi would inevitably fight for it, and he would suffer a significant loss. Therefore, asking the Grand Marshal for help was the best option.

"The next item for auction is a national treasure from the Shengming Central Empire eight hundred years ago."

The charming and pleasant voice of the woman in red, the Saint of the Moon Worshiping Demon Cult, slowly sounded on the auction table.

Then, the werewolf warriors from the Pearl Light Pavilion carried a three-meter-tall bronze tripod onto the auction platform and carefully placed it on the platform. Even so, it still made a loud, eye-catching noise when it landed.

The four legs of the bronze tripod pressed the table surface downward.

Obviously, this bronze tripod is not made of ordinary materials, and Zhao Shuang knows very well that this bronze tripod is a divine artifact, a real divine artifact.

However, at this moment, this huge bronze tripod has been covered with green rust. Under the rust, there are densely packed words engraved, exuding an ancient charm.

At this time, the woman in red who was in charge of the auction, the Holy Maiden of the Moon Worshiping Demon Cult, had already begun her introduction.

"This tripod is called the Kaiyuan Deer Tripod. It was an essential ancestral vessel used by the former Holy Central Empire to worship ancestors, gods, and heaven and earth."

……

"Do you know this Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron?" Seeing Zhao Shuang's moved expression, the painting saint Chu Siyuan couldn't help but ask.

It was the first time he saw Zhao Shuang with such an expression.

"Yes! Of course I know it. This is a good thing. Senior, can you help me buy it later? The price is whatever you want."

Zhao Shuang nodded and his eyes fell on the painting saint Chu Siyuan. This little old man was a good choice.

"This Saint will help you buy it, but this... this won't do. This Saint is a Confucianist and Taoist, how can I buy something from the past dynasty?"

The painting saint Chu Siyuan found a reason and shook his head to refuse.

"Senior, what do you think of the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron? Don't you want to know its secrets?"

Zhao Shuang said with great temptation.

"What secrets could this ordinary... this ordinary bronze tripod have?" Painting Saint Chu Siyuan originally wanted to say "it's just an ordinary bronze tripod," but found that even with his mental power, he couldn't detect anything unusual. This was simply unbelievable. After all, how could an ordinary bronze tripod be so heavy? At least a million kilograms.

Coupled with what Zhao Shuang just said, he couldn't help but become more curious.

In the eyes of others, the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron is just a national treasure of the once prosperous Central Empire.

Therefore, for the former members of the Shengming Central Empire, it has extraordinary significance and carries the national destiny of the Shengming Central Empire.

If you get it, you can gather troops and fight for the world.

However, Zhao Shuang was not interested in these.

"The origin of this bronze tripod, Senior Painting Saint, is truly extraordinary and incredible. Do you think I would have asked you to personally bid for it if it were an ordinary tripod? I simply want to leverage your prestige to easily purchase it. This way, I can proceed more conveniently."

Zhao Shuang continued to explain, adding a layer of mystery to the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron, which made the painting master Chu Siyuan even more curious.

In fact, from these words, Chu Siyuan, the Painting Saint, already understood that this Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron was definitely not an ordinary thing, otherwise, with Zhao Shuang's identity, how could he value this Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron so much.

Therefore, the painting saint Chu Siyuan hesitated for a moment and then agreed directly.

"Okay, no problem. I can help you buy it, but after you buy it, you must tell me what secrets this Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron has that deserve your attention."

"Thank you very much, Senior Painting Saint. Don't worry, after I buy this Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron, I will tell you the truth. I will definitely not let you down."

Zhao Shuang said this with great sincerity.

Seeing Zhao Shuang's attitude towards painting, the saint Chu Siyuan became more and more curious.

My heart was itching like a cat scratching it, and I couldn't wait to buy it.

But how could he do such a thing as a painting saint?

Therefore, they could only wait patiently until the woman in red explained the origin of Kaiyuan Road Ding and announced the reserve price before starting to compete with others. And this opening was...

"One hundred thousand holy stones!"

As soon as this price was announced, the entire Candlelight Pavilion fell silent. The only sound was Zhao Shuang's incredible and shocked voice.

"I rely on!"

One hundred thousand holy stones is really an astronomical figure for Zhao Shuang now, although it is not unaffordable.

But this old man Chu Siyuan was really cruel. He really wanted to give Zhuguang Pavilion a huge sum of money for free. Not to mention other people, even Lin Suxian was extremely shocked by the price. She felt that Chu Siyuan was crazy and wanted to give it to her for free.

After all, his original intention was to use the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron to ruthlessly slaughter Kong Hongbi, but now he had changed his mind and used the painting master Chu Siyuan. This made Lin Suxin worried and guilty.

After all, everyone could hear Chu Siyuan's previous words, asking him to leave Zhuguang Pavilion, a dangerous place.

This price shocked Kong Hongbi so much that he was speechless. His face turned pale and pale. He really couldn't imagine it.

Why would a painting master spend such a huge price to buy the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron? Was he worried that he would gather his former subordinates from the Shengming Empire?

And it seems that there is only such an explanation. After all, the painting saint Chu Siyuan is also a Confucianist and a saint.

Naturally, he was loyal to the Central Empire and did not want the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron to fall into the hands of the Mingtang. It seemed understandable that he summoned his former subordinates from the Shengming Empire.

But once this price was announced, no one else dared to ask for tutoring, because the price was too high.

Secondly, he was afraid of offending the Painting Saint Chu Siyuan, after all, he was a Painting Saint, one of the Four Gentlemen of Confucianism and Taoism.

"One hundred and one thousand holy stones!"

Just when everyone thought that the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron would smoothly fall into the hands of the painting saint Chu Siyuan, suddenly an inopportune voice made Chu Siyuan's originally smug expression freeze on his face. Yes, the person who spoke was Zhang Ruoji, the former crown prince of the Shengming Empire.

Although one hundred and one thousand holy stones was a sky-high price for Zhang Ruoji, he could afford it. Moreover, the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron was of great significance to him, so he naturally did not want it to fall into the hands of the Painting Saint, because the Painting Saint was also from the Central Empire.

"What's going on? Someone is actually competing with the Painting Saint for the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron. Is this an attempt to offend the Painting Sect and the First Central Empire?"

"He's Ruochen, the Star Envoy of the Black Market First-Rank Hall. He's the one who almost dethroned Di Yi from the position of Young Master of the Black Market First-Rank Hall. He's also a strong contender for the position. It's safe to say that Di Yi considers him his mortal enemy and has always wanted to eliminate him to prevent future troubles. However, he has the strong support of the Murong family behind him. He's able to compete with Di Yi."

"That's not right. Hasn't the Murong family always been loyal to the Evil Emperor? How could they support an outsider?"

"No one knows for sure. Anyway, as soon as this person joined the black market, he immediately received strong support from the Murong family and began competing with Emperor Yi for the position of Young Master of the Black Market's First-Rank Hall."

"At the same time, this person is also the younger brother of the First Realm Master, and is also from the Yunwu Commandery."

What? He is also the younger brother of the First Realm Prince. This Yunwu County Prince is really amazing. He actually produced two such outstanding and extraordinary princes at once. "

"You are wrong. There are not only two princes like these in Yunwu County, but also a Jiezi County Princess."

"It really is that Jiezi, also the Princess of Yunwu Commandery."

"The Yunwu Commandery is so powerful. I originally thought it was just a barren land. But I didn't expect that two world masters would appear in succession."

"To be precise, it should be our first Jiezi. He is so powerful. Some say that he is the reincarnation of an ancient god and has awakened the memories of his past life. Otherwise, how could he have cultivated so many Jiezi? And also storage bags, storage rings, storage bracelets and other space treasures."

"You should know that Wu Shi has earned countless spirit crystals and holy stones with these three treasures."

"Speaking of the First Realm Child. It's been so long, why is there no news about him?"

"Yes!"

While others were discussing where Zhao Shuang, the first-class man, was, Chu Siyuan had already started competing with Zhang Ruoji.

After all, neither of them wanted the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron to fall into the hands of the other.

Although Chu Siyuan didn't know that Zhang Ruoji was once the crown prince of the Shengming Empire.

However, he did not want the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron to fall into the hands of the black market Yipintang, thus causing trouble for the First Central Empire.
