47: The Lu family is coming, the old man in black should not wait for you

As Su Yufei spoke, she had someone bring the items.

A moment later, Xiao Qingyuan toyed with the items in his hand, his expression unreadable.

He listened as Su Yufei introduced the goods:

"White Spirit Snake Bone is a natural material for Flying Swords, entirely pure white. For a first-tier item, one segment is often enough.

Because it is a second-tier material, it is worth 200 Low-Grade Spirit Stones."

Xiao Qingyuan carefully placed the jade box containing the Three-Eyed Vine Turtle's vertical eye and the Ice Sparrow's heart.

He then casually picked up the third segment of the White Spirit Snake Bone.

It felt warm and smooth to the touch, with a texture very similar to a Mid-Grade Spirit Stone.

Xiao Qingyuan was actually not satisfied with it.

The Materials required for the Nine Transformations of the Heavenly Demon were best if they inherently possessed Spells or Divine Abilities.

This White Spirit Snake Bone was too ordinary.

It would inevitably affect his Cultivation in the Late Stage.

However, Xiao Qingyuan also knew that while eyes and hearts were one thing,

for Divine Abilities to specifically reside in the spine, it would likely require the Bloodline of a Divine Beast.

Only a Yao Beast that was valuable in every part could achieve that.

So he nodded indifferently, feigning a lack of interest, and continued, "Not bad! What about this last bottle?"

Xiao Qingyuan pointed at the last spiritual item and said indifferently, "It's blue-violet. How is it that I see this thing not as essence blood?"

Su Yufei smiled awkwardly upon hearing this, then spoke of the item's origin: "It's quite a coincidence; this item comes from the Lu Family of Jiujiang."

"Oh?" Xiao Qingyuan regained his composure, "You mean to say, this item was extracted fromMirageblood?"

Su Yufei nodded at his words, then immediately shook her head.

"Fellow Daoist is astute." Su Yufei introduced with some embarrassment, "The Lu Family, as a Foundation Establishment Immortal Clan, has many industries, withMiragepearls being the most famous, as they are the main material for making recording pearls.

Therefore, they can also be considered a Beast Taming Immortal Clan.

However, while the Illusory YaoMirageis not without value, its combat power is rather unsatisfactory.

Thus, some clan members proposed to change the Bloodline of the SpiritMirage, returning it to its Dragon ancestry.

To Cultivate aMirageDragon with Dragon Blood characteristics."

Hiss... Xiao Qingyuan couldn't help but gasp upon hearing this.

Then he felt a little amused.

Spending so much effort to Cultivate some so-called DragonMirage, it would be better to Cultivate a Flood Dragon.

After all, the Dragon Clan, as the ancestors of the water domain, wouldn't be so indiscriminate.

However, in the next second, Su Yufei shook her head with a smile, "But they succeeded, and they failed."

As she spoke, she pointed to the jade bottle beside her, "They ultimately cultivated a batch of Gu!"

"Gu?" This time, Xiao Qingyuan also laughed, "That's interesting. But Manager Su's words don't seem to hold much respect for the Lu Family, this Foundation Establishment Immortal Clan."

Su Yufei tilted her head, feigning ignorance.

The two exchanged glances, understanding each other without words.

Xiao Qingyuan directly changed the topic: "So, the failure of theMirageDragon made the Lu Family very unwilling, and so they extracted its essence blood.

I generally understand the reason, so the question is.

Does this thing have more characteristics ofMirageblood essence or Dragon blood essence?"

Su Yufei shook her head sincerely upon hearing this: "This is just an item to cut losses. Your question, Fellow Daoist, is difficult for me to answer. I can only tell you that this item is worth five hundred Spirit Stones.

Whether it's good or bad, only you, Fellow Daoist, can judge."

Xiao Qingyuan secretly activated his Spirit Eye, examining the bottle repeatedly from the outside.

This item was quite complex, yet it gave him a feeling of extreme purity.

It was likely made from a majority of sub-Dragon essence as Materials, and after cultivating them intoMirageDragon Gu worms.

It was then extracted again from that batch of failed Gu worms.

It's just that I don't know why the experiment was stopped."

Gu... can it be used as a spiritual absorption item for the Nine Transformations of the Heavenly Demon?

Xiao Qingyuan pondered quietly.

His fingers tapped on the table.

"One last question, are there any hidden dangers with this item?"

However, Su Yufei smiled without speaking.

Xiao Qingyuan directly returned the item.

Indicating he didn't need it.

Su Yufei didn't seem disappointed by this; her action was merely a test.

【As expected】

【This person needs essences to Cultivate some Body Refining Cultivation Technique】

【It's even more likely for his own use】

As she understood this internally.

Her speculation about Xiao Qingyuan's identity became even more certain.

He must be a core disciple from a Foundation Establishment Immortal Clan of a similar level.

Xiao Qingyuan was also secretly aware of this; her attitude of not being fond of the Lu Family might also have been put on for him.

With different thoughts, the two parted ways after the transaction was complete.

The auction was about to begin.

After Su Yufei left, Xiao Qingyuan silently calculated the three Materials in his hand.

He had taken the Hundred Spirit Snake Bone.

As a backup, if not used, he could also ask someone to craft a Magical Artifact Flying Sword for his mother.

The wood-attributed Vine Turtle's single eye was for Guanyin Nu.

The Rainbow Ice Sparrow, besides its ice Spells, also possessed the ability to camouflage, suitable for Da Jiang.

Besides these, he still had nearly ten thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones.

If he had the chance, he didn't want to miss out on the five-attribute spiritual items either.

Xiao Qingyuan vaguely felt that these so-called Foundation Establishment spiritual items were related to Foundation Establishment.

But it was not convenient to directly ask Su Yufei.

In addition, there were also the Yao Beast Materials needed by Hongniang and Xie Yuming.

The second-tier guardian array covering the star vein.

Advanced Talisman Legacy, Talisman Control Art, family Legacy of a hundred arts, etc... Xiao Qingyuan was also very much looking forward to the upcoming auction.

He hoped it would bring him surprises.

Out of boredom, he activated his Spirit Eye again and probed the adjacent private room.

Unexpectedly, he instantly broke through the Restriction of the private room.

With one glance, he saw a familiar black-robed elder in Room One of the Heaven-tier, accompanied by a gloomy, gaunt young man.

"Who?"

The elder roared.

Xiao Qingyuan was startled and quickly withdrew his gaze, only daring to glance with his peripheral vision.

【It's him!】

That elder was precisely the Lu Family Cultivator who had previously tracked Xie Yuming.

Xiao Qingyuan became interested at this sight.

He carefully observed their lip movements to eavesdrop.

"Elder Mo, are you too tense?"

The black-robed elder, called Elder Mo, bowed his head and body upon hearing this: "Young Lord Lu Liang, just now this subordinate felt someone peeking at me. Perhaps this subordinate was too nervous?"

The gloomy young man named Lu Liang nodded upon hearing this, then turned to other matters.

"Three days have passed, and your matter isn't finished yet? It's just a woman, I don't care very much."

"Third Young Master is unaware, that person is actually from the Xie Family."

"At the first sign of the Xie Family's betrayal, this subordinate took the liberty of annihilating that Jianghu School, hoping to lure out someone from the Xie Family."

"But unexpectedly, that woman possessed a natural Cauldron physique, which I intended to offer to Young Lord."

"However, she was intercepted beforehand, which greatly angered this subordinate, but it's not a major issue."

Lu Liang became interested upon hearing this, then sneered and shook his head, "You're not being honest. A Cauldron, and a Mortal at that, is she worth all your trouble?"

"If I'm not mistaken, you originally planned a 'hero saving the beauty' scenario, didn't you?"

"Young Lord is discerning." Elder Mo replied in a low voice, somewhat ashamed upon hearing this: "This subordinate interrogated the manager of that brokerage, but the person who came was cautious, left no name, and disappeared from the city immediately.

It's highly likely they are from the Xie Family.

Subsequently, the people this subordinate arranged at the four gates searched outside the city gates for three days, but found nothing.

From this, it can be seen that this woman still holds great value.

And is not merely a simple Mortal woman."

Lu Liang sneered upon hearing this, "I don't care how you want to play, what I want is the entire Yanggu Prefecture."

"It doesn't matter if those three families are gone or have fled; our Lu Family can always re-establish them."

"The best outcome is to seize the interests in the east from my elder brother, Lu Zhong, and make them my own property. Do you understand?"

"This subordinate will definitely accomplish it." At this, Elder Mo gritted his teeth: "My Mo Family is willing to become a new subordinate Immortal Clan for Young Lord to take control of Yanggu Prefecture."

"Heh heh heh, Mo Dengxian, you are indeed the most loyal. I will not treat you unfairly."
