426: Which of these holy sons isn't incredibly wealthy?

The five individuals who just walked in were all from the Immortal Great Sects of the Four Domains.

Wu Xiuya was from the Nine Profound Demonic Sect, Lin Canghai was from the Heavenly Demon Sect, and the other two were Chen Yuantu from Star Sea Gate and Zhao Wubing from Starfall Gate.

These four were all Prodigies who had entered the Golden Body Realm.

"What are you doing here?"

Long Qian's eyes flashed with fierce light, and a powerful aura swept out, dispersing the oppressive aura that had been suppressing them.

Crack! Crack!

As the auras of the two sides' experts clashed, the Never Look Back Merchant Guild trembled. The floorboards inside shattered, and thick cracks appeared on the walls, making it feel as if the building could collapse at any moment.

An ordinary place certainly couldn't withstand the clash of Golden Body Realm auras.

This was, after all, the Never Look Back Merchant Guild, and it had Formations inscribed within it, allowing it to withstand their auras.

However, no one noticed that Shen Liu and Shen Qi, the two elders who usually guarded the Merchant Guild's order, were nowhere to be seen at this moment!

If anyone with a keen eye had noticed, they would have felt that something was amiss.

"Do we need to report to you trash wherever we go?"

"Long Qian, Lian Jiuxian, do you really think that just because you're the so-called top Saints of the Inner Sea, you can talk to us like this?"

"Aren't you afraid that you'll come out alive this time, but won't make it back alive?!"

Wu Xiuya's voice changed from the frivolous tone he had when he first entered to a very domineering one!

He didn't even put the prestige of the first holy son of the Six Mansions in his eyes!

This made all the Cultivators watching the show light up with excitement!

What a major event!

Although clashes between experts from the Four Domains Immortal Great Sects and top Inner Sea forces occasionally occurred in the Inner Sea, very few truly broke Face.

Bouts between Saints were only heard of, and not many people had actually witnessed them.

But now, it seemed like the two sides were at loggerheads, implying that a conflict was about to erupt!

What these Saints wanted was Face!

Wu Xiuya's words undoubtedly meant a complete breakdown of Face, giving no Face at all to Lian Jiuxian and the others.

Lian Jiuxian, who had been silent, stepped forward and said indifferently, "Oh? By your tone, do you wish to have a contest? I, Lian, shall oblige!"

Even if his Sect couldn't compare to those Immortal Great Sects, he wouldn't let his own prestige be diminished.

The Six Mansions and Twelve Caves were originally sub-Sects of these Immortal Great Sects. The clashes among their Disciples were something the higher-ups were happy to see, and even deaths and injuries were not a big deal.

For these Great Sects, Cultivators who died in such conflicts were simply not worth nurturing!

Their deaths were of no consequence!

They had plenty of so-called Geniuses!

Only those who triumphed in such talent contests were truly needed by the Sect!

The Dao of survival for a Great Sect was, in reality, this cruel!

"I've long heard that Lian Jiuxian of the Divine Profound Mansion entered the Golden Body Realm before the age of five hundred, and in the future, he will have the qualification to contend for the Emperor's Companion. I've long wanted to experience it firsthand."

Wu Xiuya burst into laughter. How could they have reached this point if they hadn't emerged from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood? Even an elder Golden Body Realm expert, he would dare to fight, let alone just a Lian Jiuxian?

"Alright, then as you wish!"

Boom!!!

A dense, almost tangible aura was released. The two were only three to five steps apart, and at such close range, the clash of auras was the first choice for an attack!

It could also be said to be a probing method!

In an instant, an invisible hurricane swept through the first floor of the Merchant Guild. All the treasures trembled, their lights flickering, as if sensing the impending danger.

And those Cultivators who had not left were now regretting it to death!

When immortals fight, mortals suffer!

These two were genuine Golden Body Realm experts. Even if they didn't make a move, just the release of their auras was something they couldn't endure.

The air seemed to solidify into a block of molten iron, making breathing difficult.

And some with insufficient strength directly spat blood and flew backward, their blood splattering everywhere, suffering severe injuries.

A strong scent of blood permeated the air, extremely pungent, causing several Saints to frown involuntarily.

However, neither of the two contenders intended to end it like this, so they naturally wouldn't be affected by such minor issues.

They didn't even consider what consequences they would Face for fighting here!

...In the backyard, Shen Tianxing sat on a rocking chair, swaying comfortably.

He held a wine pot and occasionally took a few sips.

"Alas, Xianyun and the others are all in seclusion. It's truly boring; there's not even anyone to drink with."

Shi Linglong and the others went into seclusion after arriving here.

Xing Yao also went into seclusion a few days ago.

Liu Xianyun's strength was the strongest among them, and she was currently attempting to break through to the Golden Body Realm.

After discussing the Dao with Shen Tianxing these past few days and listening to his exposition on the Dao, she suddenly had an epiphany and went into seclusion.

It must be said that Liu Xianyun's Comprehension Ability was one of the top few Shen Tianxing had ever seen. The only one who could steadily surpass her was probably Empress Yan Yuzhu!

"Young Master, it's about to start fighting up front."

Shen Liu stood behind him, saying with a smile.

Shen Liu and Shen Qi usually guarded the Merchant Guild, but these days they had uncharacteristically not gone.

This was, of course, Shen Tianxing's instruction.

The purpose?

It was to let those guys who came to Holy Heaven City stir up trouble. If they didn't stir up trouble, how could he legitimately harvest them?

"Then why aren't you going to watch?"

"Oh, right, don't rush to kill them. These guys aren't lacking in treasures. See how much divine marrow and treasures they have, and how much they need to compensate us."

"The wood in our Merchant Guild isn't cheap, and it's expensive to make a living!"

Shen Tianxing, bored, changed his posture, giving instructions and waving his hand to dismiss Shen Liu.

Harvesting, after all, wasn't just about killing people.

Which of these Saints wasn't rolling in wealth?

Damaging Merchant Guild property, compensation is very reasonable, isn't it?

Don't say the Merchant Guild is bullying them.

This was just an appetizer for now. Before the higher-ups of those top forces arrived, Shen Tianxing didn't plan to make a big move.

Shen Liu took his leave.

At this moment, in the Merchant Guild hall, Wu Xiuya and Lian Jiuxian stood facing each other. Their auras continuously collided, and the explosive fluctuations of their auras shattered all the surrounding tables, chairs, and shelves!

The walls of the entire Merchant Guild were almost collapsing!

Among them, several treasures couldn't withstand the pressure of their auras and were directly shattered into dust!

The losses were significant!

The Cultivators watching the show around them, those who survived, didn't even dare to breathe loudly!

"How audacious!!"

"Who allowed you to come to my Merchant Guild and act so recklessly? Look, how many things have you broken for me?"

Just as Wu Xiuya and Lian Jiuxian were about to get serious, Shen Liu's voice came from the Attic.

Immediately after, Shen Liu's figure appeared before everyone.
