Fantasy: The Clan Chief Lies Down, His House Is Full of Emperors

With the sale of six Heavenly Spirit Pills, the Wanbaoge Grand Auction has come to a successful conclusion.

Just like last time, several factions came knocking, wanting to conduct another private transaction.

This time, however, Xu Qingzhou was too lazy to show up himself, so he had the Third Elder go to the transaction on his behalf.

The reason for this private transaction is that the Xu family still has quite a few of these items, but they don't want to sell them directly at the auction, as that would be too conspicuous.

Such private transactions, with confidentiality between both parties, allow them to sell the same items for the same price and earn the same amount of spirit stones—why not?

Xu Qingzhou briefly explained some talking points to the Third Elder before leaving.

The Third Elder arrived at the VIP room where the Eastern Peak King of the Great Xia Dynasty was located, and after a brief exchange of pleasantries...

King Dongyue asked, "I wonder if Chief Xu is busy? I would like to see him."

The Third Elder replied, "The Clan Chief is currently in seclusion. If the King of Dongyue has anything to say, he can speak directly to me."

"This..." King Dongyue rubbed his hands, a little embarrassed.

After all, he didn't know how much the Third Elder knew about private transactions.

The Third Elder chuckled inwardly, then cut to the chase: "The Clan Chief has already instructed me that the King of Dongyue wants to buy the Heavenly Spirit Pill?"

“Yes, yes,” King Dongyue nodded repeatedly.

The Third Elder replied, "Given the relationship between our Xu family and the Great Xia Dynasty, everything is easy to discuss. Apart from the Heavenly Spirit Pill, I wonder what other items at this auction have caught the eye of the Eastern Peak King?"

The King of Dongyue was somewhat surprised and shocked, and asked in confusion, "Can I buy the others too?"

“Yes,” the Third Elder replied.

Upon receiving an affirmative reply, King Dongyue quickly named several treasures worth purchasing at the auction.

After the transaction was completed, the Third Elder went to other VIP rooms to meet with representatives of other forces.

Of course, the items and prices traded are directly related to their relationship with the Xu family and the degree of cooperation they have.

The better the relationship, the more you can buy, and the prices are all normal.

Besides them, there were also many powerful individuals from other continents who came to Cangzhou and visited the Xu family's blessed land, hoping to pay a visit to Xu Qingzhou.

They simply wanted to get to know Xu Qingzhou and discuss cooperation with the Xu family's Wanbaoge.

After all, everyone can see that the Xu family not only has powerful backers, but also great development potential. Cooperating with them is definitely a sure thing.

However, since Yin Xianhong had just returned, Xu Qingzhou was too busy to see them and was also too lazy to meet them, so he arranged for the Second Elder to receive them.

Now, unless an Emperor-level expert descends, no one is qualified to be personally received by Xu Qingzhou.

Over the next few days, the powerful figures from various continents who had come to participate in the auction gradually left Duanshan City and Cangzhou. The onlookers also dispersed, and Duanshan City returned to its usual tranquility.

Just as Yin Xianhong said, some of the powerful individuals among them chose to go directly to Shanzhou, wanting to explore the small world left behind by the Emperor Realm experts.

Unfortunately, their cultivation level was too high, and the Drunken Immortal Pavilion's intelligence system couldn't reach them, so the relevant information couldn't be transmitted back from Shanzhou.

Another half month passed.

Xu Luo, Xu Chen, and Xu Qiufeng set sail again, leaving Cangzhou to travel to various continents in search of opportunities.

Normally, only after a Saint Realm expert has reached the level of Great Saint or Saint King will they leave their continent and venture into a wider world.

Only the most talented and extraordinary individuals are qualified to venture into various continents from the True Saint Realm.

Furthermore, there is currently no suitable place for Xu Luo and his two companions to cultivate in Cangzhou, nor is there any opportunity for them to emerge.

If they stay behind, their cultivation progress will be much slower, so they still need to gain more experience.

However, Xu Chen had been waiting for this day for a long time. His Qi Observation Technique would surely play a huge role in this journey!

Xu Hao wasn't home often; he spent most of his time cultivating in Zhentian City of the Bright Moon Immortal Dynasty in the Immortal Realm. Occasionally, he would return to spar with his clansmen and then go to the Trial Tower to test his cultivation results.

He won't be able to reach the 99th floor and get the chance to enter the ancient battlefield in a short time.

However, the ancient battlefield is still more than ten years away from opening, so everything is uncertain, and he still has a chance to improve himself and obtain a spot.

.....

After Shen Hongyi, the other lord of Shenque Prefecture, returned, Xu Qingzhou, Yin Xianhong, and the other two also set off together after concealing their presence, leaving Cangzhou and heading to Shanzhou, which was not too far away.

Previously, Xu Qingzhou and Yin Xianhong went to visit Xu Ying and Xu Muge, but were ambushed on the way by five Saint King Realm experts. These five were dressed in black and were very powerful.

Xu Qingzhou and Yin Xianhong used their trump cards one after another, and in the end, they were seriously injured and barely escaped death. That was the closest Xu Qingzhou had ever come to death, and it took him a long time to fully recover.

After returning to Cangzhou, Xu Qingzhou mobilized all the resources of Zuixianlou to investigate, and only then did he discover that the five Saint King Realm experts all came from Shanzhou.

They only set their sights on Xu Qingzhou after attending the Wanbaoge auction. Coincidentally, Xu Qingzhou went to visit Xu Ying and didn't pay much attention to his whereabouts, which gave them an opportunity to take advantage of him.

So when Xu Qingzhou and his group came to Shanzhou this time, they used various methods to conceal their presence and hide their whereabouts. At the same time, he had another goal, which was to encounter the five of them and take revenge.

If revenge cannot be taken, then the forces to which they belong must be investigated, and once sufficient strength has been accumulated, they can be eradicated completely in one fell swoop.

They remained silent the entire way until the three arrived at Shanzhou. Shen Hongyi was still in a daze, finding it hard to accept.

There are two main points.

First of all, how come my beautiful junior sister Yin Xianhong has been taken by Xu Qingzhou after only a few decades away?

It should be noted that Shen Hongyi has known Yin Xianhong for at least several hundred years. He had tried to pursue her before, but gave up after being clearly rejected by her.

Later, he learned that many other powerful individuals had expressed their affection for Yin Xianhong, but without exception, they were all rejected.

Shen Hongyi initially thought that Yin Xianhong was too picky, which was why she didn't like him. However, after she rejected many amazing, talented, and noble people, he realized that she was focused on pursuing the Dao and had no interest in matters of men and women.

Shen Hongyi only realized now that Yin Xianhong was indeed just picky and hadn't taken a liking to anyone else.

The second thing that Shen Hongyi found hard to accept was that Xu Qingzhou's cultivation level was improving too fast, which was beyond his understanding of what he had seen and heard in his thousands of years of cultivation.

When we last met, he had just broken through to the True Saint Realm. In just a few decades, he has almost caught up with me.

This time was shorter than the time it took Shen Hongyi to break through to the first level of the Great Sage Realm.

Shen Hongyi even thought that Xu Qingzhou had been possessed by a demonic cultivator, or that he was a demonic cultivator to begin with, but upon closer reflection, even if he were a demonic cultivator, he wouldn't be this monstrous.

Looking across the entire Tianyuan Realm, throughout history, there is no one like this.

This is what made it difficult for Shen Hongyi to accept, or rather, it was a blow to him.

Yin Xianhong only glanced at him before she understood what he was thinking, because she had felt the same way before, so she offered some words of comfort.

"Senior Brother Shen, don't overthink it. The world is vast and full of wonders. We just need to do our best."

Shen Hongyi can be considered a genius; otherwise, he could not have cultivated step by step to his current level and become the master of Shenque Mansion.

After listening to Yin Xianhong's words, he realized that he had been getting a little stuck in his own thoughts and almost developed inner demons because of it. So he quickly adjusted his mindset and breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm fine now, let's go."

Shen Hongyi, like Yin Xianhong, is at the seventh level of the Saint King Realm.

Although Xu Qingzhou was two levels lower than them and did not have the combat power of Xu Muge and Xu Ying, he still had the ability to fight against the two of them. The three of them forming a team should not have any problems.

Under normal circumstances, Yin Xianhong and Shen Hongyi have similar talents, and Yin Xianhong's cultivation level cannot catch up with his.

However, when Yin Xianhong first visited Xu Ying with Xu Qingzhou and Su Xinyan on the flying boat, she experienced a breakthrough after a sudden enlightenment due to a remark made by Xu Qingzhou.

After cultivating with Xu Qingzhou for a period of time, he broke through again and finally caught up with Shen Hongyi in cultivation level.

Shen Hongyi thought Yin Xianhong had some kind of extraordinary encounter, but in reality, her easy breakthrough of these two levels was also directly related to Xu Qingzhou.

It's just that he didn't know this. If he had, he would have been amazed at how quickly everyone associated with Xu Qingzhou was progressing!
