The people from Sword Sect didn’t seem to be lying. Moreover, the Sword Sect was relatively poor among all the sects. Everyone looked at each other, “That’s strange. If it’s not Sword Sect, who could it be?”
Sword Sect disciples left in a hurry and did not want to argue with them. The most important thing was to send the pills back to the sect. They had no interest in getting involved in these things.
Only the six great sects were left. Their suspicious gazes lingered on the other people. Just who bought the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram?
“Since you’ve already won the bid, what’s there to be ashamed of? Do you think we’re going to steal it? ”
“Why are you looking at us? We didn’t bid on the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram.”
“You should know very well who bought it. There’s no need to pretend here. Didn’t your Dao Seeking Sect buy it? I heard that you have a lot of supreme-grade spirit stones.”
“What are you saying? Are you trying to sow discord? I think it’s you guys, Yaochi Holy Land.”
“Don’t talk nonsense here and mislead others. Your Misty Illusory Manor should have a few supreme-grade spirit stones, right?”
They wanted to ask the manager of the auction house directly. However, the auction house had a rule that all information about the auctioneer would be kept secret. The purpose was to prevent other people who did not manage to get the item from having bad intentions.
As for what would happen after they left the auction house, that was not within their ability.
Seeing the big sects quarreling and even fighting, the person in charge of the auction house had to come forward to calm the situation down.
However, no one noticed that Ye Xuan had already left through the back door of the auction house with the help of Zhou Zhentian.
Ye Xuan knew how precious the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram was, so he didn’t dare to waste any time. Like a ghost in the night, he was so fast that only his shadow could be seen. However, after walking for hundred meters, he suddenly stopped.
He didn’t expect someone found him even though he was so careful.
Without waiting for Ye Xuan to speak, the air suddenly became distorted. A crack was torn open in the air. The violent spiritual power tore the surrounding space apart, and a hunched figure appeared.
“Cough, cough”
A tottering old man appeared in front of Ye Xuan, but every step he took was extremely laborious.
This person was the great elder of the Dao Seeking Sect.
His eyes lit up as he looked Ye Xuan up and down, and he said in disbelief, “I didn’t expect that the one who bought the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram would be you.”
What surprised the old man the most was that Ye Xuan was only at human rank level two. He was the real deal, and there were no traces of any magical artifacts to conceal his full strength.
“Put down the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram, and I’ll let you go.”
The old man in front of him had a calm aura and looked no different from an ordinary old man. However, Ye Xuan didn’t dare to underestimate him. Based on the old man’s ability to tear space, he was at least at the sky rank or above.
“What if I don’t?”
The old man revealed a kind smile, but his words made people shiver. “Then die!”
As soon as the old man finished speaking, his aura became extremely terrifying. In an instant, the sky changed color, and the wind and clouds started to move violently.
No one could see how he attacked, and there was no time to dodge. The invisible force hit Ye Xuan heavily.
Ye Xuan spat out a large mouthful of blood. What terrifying power! He couldn’t even think of resisting.
The old man was also surprised. He had used all his strength in that palm. If it had been anyone else, they would have probably been killed on the spot with all their meridians broken, but Ye Xuan was still breathing.
“I’ll give you one more chance. The Hetu and Luoshu Diagram, are you going to hand it over or not?”
“I won’t!”
“Very good. I’d like to see if you can take my palm.”
A pair of giant hands appeared out of thin air above Ye Xuan, giving off unparalleled pressure. Ye Xuan looked at the giant hands that covered the sky and had no way to retreat. He could only watch them fall.
The old man smiled, but the next second, his smile froze on his face.
He thought he would see Ye Xuan’s body, but there was no one under the giant hand. Only a few strands of hair fell from the air.
“What a good move. I fell for this kid’s illusion! I don’t believe that he can escape from my attack.”
The old man’s expression was ruthless, and his figure disappeared.
On the other side.
Ye Xuan sat on the turtle-shaped magical artifact. He bought it in the auction and didn’t expect to use it now.
After witnessing the old man’s power, Ye Xuan knew he was no match for the old man at all with his current cultivation. Ye Xuan had created a clone, but his real body was riding a flying magic artifact.
Even though Ye Xuan was as fast as lightning, he still felt he was too slow. Judging the old man’s cultivation base, it was only a matter of time before he saw through Ye Xuan’s illusion and caught up with him. At that time, he was afraid that he would be in danger.
…
On the other side, the people from Sword Sect had almost rushed back as fast as they could.
The 20 divine soul pills were sent to the grand elder immediately.
In the cave, Mo Jianming sat cross-legged and swallowed the pill. In a moment, golden light flowed and repaired his spirit.
Mo Jianming suddenly opened his eyes, and a terrifying aura was emitted. A soaring sword qi rose from the ground, and the top of the mountain was shrouded in sharp sword qi. The entire mountain trembled, and all the disciples of Sword Sect looked up in shock.
“What happened?”
“The quake seems to be coming from the Hidden Sword Peak.”
The disciples, the elders, and even the sect master were alarmed and rushed to where the grand elder was.
The grand elder walked out slowly from inside.
Everyone was in disbelief, “Elder Mo, your injuries are…”
