894: A fair fight, the Holy Son of Heavenly Secrets
"A fair fight?"
Xie Weilou casually tossed the wine cup in his hand, instantly sending it hurtling toward Yuan Yaochen.
"Hmph!"
Yuan Yaochen gave a cold snort, his arm flashing with golden light as he reached out to grab the wine cup.
Boom!
The wine cup vibrated, and a fierce pressure erupted. Yuan Yaochen's arm was repelled by this pressure before he could even grab the cup.
Xie Weilou instantly appeared in the middle of the square. He casually grasped the cup, and with a gentle wave, the wine inside splashed out, transforming into an ice spear.
Boom!
The ice spear suddenly shot toward Yuan Yaochen.
"Roar!"
Yuan Yaochen let out a roar, his golden arm flashing with blinding light, and a terrifying Demonic Qi erupted from his body. His physique continuously expanded, transforming him into a three-meter-tall golden Auspicious Fiend.
How could he not know Xie Weilou's great name?
He dared to provoke him not because he was stupid, but because he had confidence.
As a half-demon, he possessed half of the great fiend Auspicious Fiend Bloodline. Once activated, his battle prowess far exceeded his Realm. Even facing those Saints, he had the strength to fight.
If he defeated Xie Weilou today, his name would certainly shake the Eastern Barrens. Xie Weilou was merely a stepping stone for his fame.
"Roar!"
Yuan Yaochen clenched his fist and smashed it toward the ice spear.
Bang!
A burst of sound rang out; the ice spear was shattered, and ice shards scattered.
"This Yuan Yaochen is indeed not simple!"
Everyone stared at Yuan Yaochen. Within the Heaven Mending Sect, perhaps Yuan Yaochen's fame was not comparable to the Heaven Mending Sect's Saint and Saintess, but his combat power was truly extraordinary.
The Auspicious Fiend was one of the Great Fiends of antiquity. The Auspicious Fiend was ferocious, and its combat power was Heaven-Defying. Since Yuan Yaochen possessed half of the Auspicious Fiend Bloodline, his battle prowess naturally wouldn't be weak.
At the very least, among the people present, only a few could fight Yuan Yaochen.
"Die!"
Yuan Yaochen took a step, instantly arriving before Xie Weilou. He smashed a punch toward Xie Weilou. The fist print erupted, Demonic Qi raged, carrying the might of destruction.
...
Xie Weilou held the wine cup with a composed expression. As Yuan Yaochen attacked, he casually extended his left hand, thrusting out two fingers. An arc of lightning flashed at his fingertips.
Rumble!
Xie Weilou's finger strike collided with Yuan Yaochen's fist. A deafening explosion sounded, and powerful energy swept in all directions, causing cracks to appear across the square.
Suddenly, dense lightning appeared on Yuan Yaochen's arm. The Demonic Qi was continuously eroded, and cracks appeared on his arm.
"Not good..."
Yuan Yaochen's expression drastically changed.
Bang!
The next moment, Yuan Yaochen's arm exploded, turning into a mist of blood that scattered everywhere. His body flew backward like a cannonball.
Yuan Yaochen flipped over, quickly stabilized his body, and showed a look of pain.
Xie Weilou took a step, instantly appearing in front of Yuan Yaochen. He clenched his left hand into a fist, covered it with lightning, and punched toward Yuan Yaochen's chest.
Boom!
Yuan Yaochen had no time to react. A gruesome blood hole appeared in his chest, his body was pierced by the fist print, and blood spurted out like a pillar of water.
...
Yuan Yaochen's eyes widened. He stared blankly at his chest, where an incomparably terrifying power of thunder was wildly raging inside his body, continuously tearing apart his physique.
After delivering the punch, Xie Wei shook his head: "Not worth watching."
After speaking, his figure moved, and he flew back into the pavilion.
Rumble!
Yuan Yaochen's body immediately exploded, turning into a cloud of blood mist. His Divine Soul was extinguished, and he died completely tragically.
...
Seeing this scene, everyone's hearts tightened, and the gaze they directed toward Xie Weilou was filled with deep apprehension.
This Yuan Yaochen might not have been a Saint, but he was still a Prodigy of the Heaven Mending Sect, and his cultivation had reached the Palace Knocking Realm.
They never expected that when facing this Xie Changan, he would be killed so easily.
Some people had already guessed the outcome, and they were not surprised at all by the scene before them.
"Senior Brother Yuan..."
The remaining three members of the Heaven Mending Sect were deathly pale, yet they dared not act against Xie Weilou.
"Oh? Did I arrive late? It seems I missed some good entertainment!"
A surprised voice rang out. A man wearing an embroidered robe and a green mask, holding a feather fan, flew over.
The newcomer was none other than Fang Baixiao, the Hall Master of the Celestial Secrets Hall, and also the Celestial Secrets Holy Son!
"Celestial Secrets Holy Son, Fang Baixiao."
Ye Lingxu looked at the newcomer and couldn't help but show a hint of mockery. This fellow had arrived earlier but had watched from the shadows without intervening.
It was known that the Tianji Pavilion's backer was the Heaven Mending Sect. It was quite interesting that this Saint of the Tianji Pavilion saw a member of the Heaven Mending Sect killed yet did not step in to stop it.
Fang Baixiao arrived at the center of the square. He smiled and said, "Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Fang Baixiao, and I am the Hall Master of the Celestial Secrets Hall!"
He had indeed been watching just now because he couldn't see through Xie Weilou.
Yuan Yaochen's move happened to be a good way to test Xie Weilou's methods. The truth was, this Xie Weilou was indeed far from simple.
As for the death of the Heaven Mending Sect member, what did that have to do with him?
Although he was associated with the Heaven Mending Sect, he had no obligation to protect the Heaven Mending Sect's Disciples.
Ye Lingxu said, "Since Hall Master Fang has arrived, let's start today's auction directly! I wonder what good items will appear today?"
The Tianji Pavilion's auctions were never simple, and many good items always appeared.
Fang Baixiao chuckled and said, "Today, we will change the auction process. We will use bartering for transactions. I will bring out some good items, and all Fellow Daoists can offer items of corresponding value. I will assess the value, and if a trade is possible, it can be conducted on the spot. If any Fellow Daoists have good items, they can also trade with others."
"That works well."
Everyone nodded.
Fang Baixiao waved his sleeve, and a bronze sword appeared before him: "This is a top-grade dao artifact. Fellow Daoists who are interested can offer items of corresponding value for trade."
"A top-grade dao artifact? That is a good item. I coincidentally obtained a turtle shell; please have a look and see what you think."
Ye Cangxiao flicked his finger, and a golden turtle shell flew toward Fang Baixiao.
Fang Baixiao immediately took the turtle shell and carefully observed it. A light flashed in his eyes: "This is a hundred-thousand-year-old Golden Turtle Divination Shell. It has mysterious runes engraved on it, making it worth studying. It is a good item, and the trade can be made!"
He put away the shell, and the bronze sword in front of him flew toward Ye Cangxiao.
Some people who were interested in the bronze sword frowned slightly. It seemed they needed to act faster next time, or their good items would be snatched away by others.
Fang Baixiao continued by taking out a second item, a black box.
He opened the box. Inside was a palm-sized black metal piece densely covered with complicated and profound Talismans. Besides this, there was also a black spiritual brush inside.
Fang Baixiao said: "The Tianji Pavilion coincidentally obtained a black metal Talisman piece and a spiritual brush. Both relate to the Dao of Talismans. Our experts at the Tianji Pavilion have assessed that the Talismans on the black metal might involve Earth-Grade Talismans. Fellow Daoists who are interested may now make an offer."
