Hearing Xue Yan's words, the wrinkles on the face of Mu Daoist slightly tightened as his deep gaze, carrying a hint of sword intent, focused intently.
Although the Divine Sword Sect does not fear the Blood Evil Sect, he cannot simply accept this matter.
"Heh, Xue Yan, your Blood Evil Sect can't find the culprit, so you try to fra my Divine Sword Sect? People from your Blood Evil Sect have always been domineering; perhaps you've offended so powerful family or sect outside Celestial Cyan City on your own."
Mu Daoist sneered, revealing a trace of irony.
Upon hearing Mu Daoist's mocking words, Xue Yan's expression also darkened.
"Mu Daoist, you'd better hope it's not your Divine Sword Sect, otherwise, our sects will have to tear off all pretenses and engage in a war between sects!"
Xue Yan's eyes stared at Mu Daoist, with a tone full of threat and killing intent.
Upon hearing this, Mu Daoist frowned slightly, and then his gaze also turned sowhat gloomy.
However, at this mont, in front of so many cultivators, he cannot let down the prestige of the Divine Sword Sect.
"Although this matter is unrelated to my Divine Sword Sect, if your Blood Evil Sect wants to start a war, my Divine Sword Sect is always ready to accompany. I've always wanted to experience the thods of Grand Elder Xue Yan."
Mu Daoist stared at Xue Yan and said defiantly.
"Hmph."
Xue Yan snorted coldly, said no more, flicked his sleeve, and entered the fourth pavilion.
Just as Xue Yan and the two behind him, Luo Xiong and Leng Yiyi, entered the pavilion, three more figures appeared in the sky.
They were three female figures, all dressed in pure white dresses, with slim and graceful postures. Each stood upon a large white feather, descending from the sky like celestial maidens.
The faces of the three figures were covered with veils, hiding their stunningly beautiful visages.
Among the three, the woman in the center led, her black hair cascading down to her waist, revealing the area above her nose. Her brows were as picturesque as a painting, and her eyes were like pools of water—truly a peerless beauty.
"It's Fairy Yanyun from Piaoling Palace."
"So beautiful."
"I heard that three months ago, she stepped into the Immortal Venerable Realm, outpacing the geniuses of the other two sects and becoming the foremost among the younger generation of the three sects."
"I didn't expect her to lead the team for the auction."
"..."
Seeing those three figures descending on white feathers, the male cultivators below all turned their gazes full of fervor, but they dared not harbor any disrespect toward the white-dressed figure.
In the face of such a peerless bearing and astonishing talent, most cultivators only felt a sense of inadequacy.
The three white-dressed figures flickered and gracefully landed on the ground, untouched by the dust.
"Fairy Yanyun?"
Underneath the black canopy, Qin Yang's gaze slightly tightened, observing the figure descending like a celestial maiden.
The leading woman should only be in her early twenties, yet she had already stepped into the Immortal Venerable Realm. It was truly a rarity, indicating that her talent was also exceptionally high.
The arrival of the three peerless won drew almost all eyes present to them.
In the fourth pavilion of the Blood Evil Sect and the fifth pavilion with Mu Daoist, as well as the talented disciples behind them, were no exceptions.
Particularly Luo Xiong, behind Grand Elder Xue Yan—his eyes beca intensely fervent.
"Niece Yanyun, I didn't expect you to lead the team this ti. Why didn't Vice Palace Master Ling Bo co?"
Gazing at the white-dressed figure that had just landed, Mu Daoist spoke.
In his old eyes was a hint of envy. They had all cultivated for a hundred years before breaking through to the Immortal Venerable Realm. Seeing this woman, who in her early twenties had reached the sa realm, her talent was truly astounding. It's a pity she wasn't a disciple of their Divine Sword Sect; Piaoling Palace truly had good fortune.
At this mont, Grand Elder Xue Yan's eyes also rested on Fairy Yanyun, his gaze slightly tightening. This woman, having broken through to the Immortal Venerable Realm, undoubtedly had beco the foremost among the three sects' disciples.
"Greetings, Senior Mu and Senior Xue Yan. Both my master and Uncle Ling Bo are in seclusion, so this ti I am leading two junior sisters to participate in the auction."
Fairy Yanyun's beautiful eyes turned to Mu Daoist and Grand Elder Xue Yan, offering a slight bow, her voice like an orchid echoing in an empty valley, tugging at one's heartstrings.
"Niece Yanyun, your talent is truly exceptional. Even I am quite envious."
Mu Daoist said.
"Senior Mu praises too much."
Fairy Yanyun's voice was calm and detached.
"Miss Yanyun, it's been quite a while since the last hunting event."
At this mont, within the fourth pavilion, Luo Xiong's eyes were burning as he spoke toward the white-dressed figure.
"Fellow Daoist Luo."
Fairy Yanyun glanced at Luo Xiong, then nodded slightly before elegantly entering the third pavilion.
Behind Fairy Yanyun, the two other won followed closely.
Seeing that the woman in front of him didn't care to pay him much attention, Luo Xiong's eyes showed a hint of dimness, then filled again with fervor.
"Senior Brother, this woman's standards are too high; she probably can't see you."
Beside Luo Xiong, Leng Yiyi's lips curled into a cold smile, saying.
"For the mont."
Upon hearing this, Luo Xiong nodded slightly. Then, that fierce face showed a look of determination and resilience.
"Heh, after all, it's just the Immortal Venerable Realm. Junior Sister, I already feel the opportunity to break through into the Immortal Venerable Realm; it should be soon!"
Luo Xiong clenched his right fist slightly, a hideous expression appearing on his scarred face, with formless evil qi swirling around him.
"Senior Brother, you've sensed the opportunity to break into the Immortal Venerable Realm?"
Leng Yiyi's beautiful eyes flickered with light, gazing at Luo Xiong with slight astonishnt.
Luo Xiong's lips curled into an overbearing smile as he cast a glance at the third pavilion, then nodded.
The three major sects' mbers had arrived, and the stone tables on the square were filled.
Swish! Swish!
Two figures erged, landing on the broad stone platform at the front of the square.
One of the middle-aged figures had a refined appearance, dressed in a purple gold robe with a python pattern embroidered on it, exuding an air of nobility.
This man was the Celestial Marquis, Xia Anshan.
"Thank you all for attending the auction at the Marquis's Mansion. Without further ado, the auction will soon begin, hosted by Alchemist Yan of the Celestial Permanence Comrce Association."
Celestial Marquis Xia Anshan revealed a slight smile to the cultivators present, then turned his gaze to the blue-robed elder beside him.
"Furthermore, I am one of the organizers of this auction, as well as a participant, and will be bidding on so items alongside fellow Daoists."
After speaking, the Celestial Marquis did not linger. His figure flashed, and he left the stone platform, then entered the second pavilion.
At this point, the VIP pavilions in front of Qin Yang were all occupied, except for the first pavilion, which was surrounded by black curtains.
Underneath the black canopy, Qin Yang's eyes flickered with light.
Currently, the second, third, fourth, and fifth pavilions were occupied by the Celestial Marquis and the three major sects. As for those who could sit in the first pavilion, they must be individuals or forces of even higher status than the Celestial Marquis.
"Fellow Daoists, I am Yan Kang, and I will be hosting this auction. Now, I declare the auction open!"
Alchemist Yan smiled slightly, stepped forward, and bowed toward the cultivators.
"Alchemist Yan is a Third Grade Peak Alchemist of the Celestial Permanence Comrce Association."
"I didn't expect him to host it."
"..."
So cultivators discussed among themselves. Clearly, as an alchemist of this level, Alchemist Yan was quite renowned in Celestial Cyan City. After a brief discussion, the crowd quieted down.
