After the rebirth of the master's wife who was hated by everyone, all of them were burned to de

"please."

Zhou Jingyue followed his master's wife half a step behind, step by step, a true follower.

Tao Fengzhi was also surprised by what he saw. He remembered Jing Yue as a proud son of heaven, unbridled and arrogant. This was the first time he saw him so aggrieved, his eyes glued to Master Lin.

"The auction will be held in Jingbao Garden. Master Lin, please stay in the same private room with me, okay?" Tao Fengzhi asked.

Lin Xuxi nodded and said, "The guest should follow the host's wishes. The young master will make the arrangements."

Jingbao Garden was a little closer to the entrance, so they had to go forward.

However, Lin Xuxi encountered many people pointing and talking at her along the way, with different looks. But from the expressions on their faces, she could tell that none of them were good.

"Master Lin, do you want to explain? Jinbao Pavilion can lend a hand." Tao Fengzhi leaned over and whispered.

"No need." Lin Xuxi didn't care what these indifferent people said.

Strength is respected in the world of immortal cultivation. As long as she reaches the Mahayana stage, what rumors can hurt her? If she has time to pay attention to those gossipers, she might as well seize the time to cultivate.

Tao Fengzhi nodded and said, "Okay."

They had not yet arranged for the guests to enter, but as soon as they entered the first floor, it was decorated just like a theater, with huanghuali chairs filling the lobby.

Opposite the main entrance is a slightly elevated stone platform with a barrier, which was probably specially set up to prevent anyone from stealing the treasure.

Lin Xuxi guessed that it would take at least the Mahayana stage to break this barrier.

This Jinbao Pavilion is indeed not as simple as it appears. There is even a barrier left by a Mahayana cultivator.

She had rarely been here before; the Sect Master always sent Jiang Sihan to handle matters. She knew the old boss from outside the Treasure Pavilion, but she had only just happened to meet him one day.

So, it was her first time coming to this place.

"Master Lin, please come to the private room on the second floor."

Anyone who could go up to the second floor was not simple, either they had high cultivation or they were powerful. This time, Hong Qing came and was arranged to stay on the second floor.

The Sword Sect is also one of the best sects in the world of immortal cultivation. As one of the five elders of the Sword Sect, Hong Qing’s treatment is naturally not bad.

After entering the private room, Lin Xuxi discovered that it was not as narrow as it looked from the outside. There was a different world inside. It must be because of a space magic tool.

The private room was large, with a table and chairs set on top, delicate snacks, tea, and a vase of peach blossoms. A screen separated the room from the bed and a small square table.

After entering, I closed the door and opened a large window. There was a beaded curtain hanging on the large window, so I could see outside but not inside.

"Elder Hong Qing is next door."

Lin Xuxi was invited to sit down on a chair. Upon hearing this, she turned to look at the wall behind her and asked, "Is he here to take the Xuan Lei Pagoda?"

"Well, they came here because they heard that the Xuan Lei Pagoda had been found by the Jin Bao Pavilion. They also threatened the Jin Bao Pavilion. If the Xuan Lei Pagoda is not auctioned this time, Elder Hong Qing will probably be unhappy." Tao Fengzhi said very tactfully.

What's there to be unhappy about? He just wants to cause trouble.

Lin Xuxi knew Hong Qing best. He appeared calm on the surface, but underneath he was violent and dictatorial, and he would resort to violence if he was not satisfied with anything.

Just like his father, it's disgusting.

"Ah."

Lin Xuxi picked up the spiritual tea and took a sip.

Zhou Jingyue remembered that his master's wife and Elder Hong Qing were friends. He stood behind his master's wife, leaned forward slightly, and asked, "Master's wife, Hong Qing and you are old acquaintances. Do you really want to fight him?"

Hearing this, Lin Xuxi did not answer, but stared at the steaming tea in her hand in a daze.

Lin Xuxi also thought that she and Hong Qing were good friends. After she escaped from Xuanyu Sect, she couldn't find Shu Jing so she had to go find Hong Qing.

Unexpectedly, she was secretly imprisoned by Hong Qing. Imprisoned in a dark dungeon, she cried out to heaven and earth but received no response, her cultivation suppressed, and suffered torture every day.

Hong Qing is a hypocritical person. He is jealous of why Jiang Sihan was chosen, but at the same time he feels that she is disabled and not worthy of him.

Moreover, Hong Qing's torture consisted of beatings and sword tests.

Every time he would let her try out his newly forged sword, he would release her spiritual power and then chop her with the sword, and every time the sword struck her, blood would be drawn.

If it inflicts heavy damage, then it is a good sword; if it inflicts light damage, then it is not a good sword.

This went on for over two years, until Lin Xuxi threatened to self-destruct and recalled the past, giving him a chance to escape. However, it seemed that Hong Qing had used the Mysterious Thunder Sword in his final sword test.

Could it be that the Xuan Lei Pagoda was already in Hong Qing's hands at that time?

Then how did he get the Xuan Lei Pagoda? In his previous life, the Xuan Lei Pagoda should have been in the Xuan Yu Sect.

"Master's wife, what's wrong with you?" Zhou Jingyue pushed Master's wife away from the shrine and asked worriedly, "Master's wife, are you feeling unwell?"

"fine."

Lin Xuxi came back to her senses. It was getting noisy outside and people were coming in one after another.

Hong Qing came this time with only one disciple.

He looked very tall and strong, with a burly figure of nearly two meters in height. His hair was tied up in a bronze lotus crown. Not a single hair was out of place, and he looked very serious.

His features were deep and handsome, but what made him different from others was his eyes, which turned out to be brown upon closer inspection. However, few people dared to look into his eyes, as he looked like someone who was not to be trifled with.

He was wearing a navy blue robe with a heavy sword on his back, standing tall and straight, looking as if he hated evil.

But who knows what lies beneath the skin of those who hate evil?

"Elder Hong Qing, please come in."

Hong Qing looked down on these businessmen who fawned over others and nodded sullenly, saying, "Yeah." He didn't show any good face.

The guide was not affected by the other party's attitude and led them to the second floor with a smile.

"Hong Qing is here." Tao Fengzhi looked at Master Lin, and seeing that she was still drinking tea calmly, he felt a little relieved.

Hong Qing was a sword cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage, while Master Lin was a talisman and medicine cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage. If they were to fight, it was unclear who would win. It was said that sword cultivators were dominant, while talisman cultivators only showed their advantage after the Spiritual Transformation stage.

But the two are friends, and even if the talisman cultivator is not as good as the sword cultivator, Elder Hong Qing should show mercy.

"Master, do you want to go next door and say hello first?" Zhou Jingyue suggested in a low voice.

Perhaps if Elder Hong Qing knew that his master's wife was here, he would not cause trouble. He did not want the relationship between his master's wife and Elder Hong Qing to become so awkward.

"What does it have to do with you?" Lin Xuxi ignored him.

Zhou Jingyue stood up obediently and nodded, "Okay." Anyway, his master's wife always had her own intentions, so he just had to be obedient.

As the mournful bell rang, the voices gradually faded, and the next part had already begun.

The first item is a rank 2 Sea Mountain cub. Sea Mountain cubs can breathe fire and are usually needed by medicine cultivators.

"Master Lin, if you have anything you like, just tell me. It's just a small thing, and Jinbao Pavilion can still afford it." Tao Fengzhi said with a smile, his tone serious and not polite at all.

Lin Xuxi was about to say no when she heard a sound coming from next door.

"Twenty high-quality spirit stones."

Hearing this, Lin Xuxi looked at Tao Fengzhi and asked, "What does Hong Qing want?"

"A fourth-level Lingxian is mostly used by sword practitioners to cultivate sword skills." Fourth-level spiritual herbs are indeed rare. Tao Fengzhi found it a bit strange to see Master Lin looking so interested.

Lingxian raises swords, but they are useless against talisman practitioners and medicine practitioners.
