Find the scapegoat

Zhou Yuan found it interesting. He didn't know the other party, yet she wanted to kill him, which meant she knew him, or at least had seen him!

He was very curious about which force the other party belonged to.

Killing intent surged in his heart!

For hostile women, no matter how beautiful she was, in Zhou Yuan's eyes, she was a hunting target!

Xue Ji's appearance made the male hormones of everyone in Jiangyue Tower surge, and their eyes were fixed on Xue Ji.

Such a beauty was indeed rare! Zhu Zi was almost drooling.

"Brother Zhou Yuan, I feel that this woman's gaze is intentionally or unintentionally looking our way, and her hostility seems significant!"

As a woman, Leng Qingxue naturally wouldn't be captivated by Xue Ji's beauty.

Not only would she not, but alarm bells rang loudly in her heart!

Although she was confident in her beauty, she had not yet experienced intimacy, so she lacked the mature charm that Xue Ji possessed.

Leng Qingxue had been watching Xue Ji, and felt that the other party's gaze lingered on their side for a moment. She immediately tensed up, and hostility appeared on her face.

This was a pure hostility from woman to woman!

Zhou Yuan heard Leng Qingxue's telepathic message and couldn't help but secretly praise her. Then he telepathically replied to Leng Qingxue: "She is indeed hostile!"

"This woman's cultivation is not simple; she is in the Half-Step Cave Heaven Realm, and there is killing intent in her eyes!"

"If I'm not mistaken, she's specifically coming for us!"

When Leng Qingxue heard Zhou Yuan's words, she instantly breathed a sigh of relief, and the sense of crisis in her heart dissipated considerably!

Zhou Yuan had seen through it, so she naturally didn't need to worry too much!

After Xue Ji's gaze swept over the three of them, she specifically examined Leng Qingxue, a faint smile playing on her lips.

"Young Master's discerning eye is indeed sharp; this woman is absolutely a rare beauty!"

"If I can find a way to bring her directly to Young Master, I'm sure Young Master will be very pleased!"

Xue Ji thought to herself, then averted her gaze.

Unlike Zhou Zhiming and Zhou Cang, the two Zhou Family Elders, she didn't care about others' opinions, as long as Zhou Heavenly King was happy.

They had served Zhou Heavenly King since childhood; Zhou Heavenly King was their everything.

As for any consequences, she didn't care.

The terrifying power of the Zhou Family was such that even if many major forces in the Saint Talisman Domain united, they might not be able to shake it, let alone a small Family.

In recent years, the Zhou Family had presented themselves as benevolent figures in various regions, rarely showing their claws.

They wanted to gain the support of more forces in a subtle way, thereby establishing a Zhou Family that would rule the entire Xuantian Star Region!

Zhou Yuan no longer paid attention to Xue Ji; if the other party truly attacked them, he had plenty of ways to deal with her.

Zhou Yuan also did not linger at the location of the myriad year evergreen vine, but went to another place.

But just then, led by a woman, Xue Ji began to stroll around, completely ignoring the naked stares from all directions!

Just then, figures appeared at the staircase again. A woman and an old man hurried over.

The woman exuded the aura of a Celestial Phenomenon Realm Peak, and the old man behind her was a Celestial Phenomenon Realm!

Although this woman wasn't as stunning as Xue Ji, she was still beautiful enough to make everyone on the second floor exclaim in surprise.

What day was it today, that beauties kept appearing at Jiangyue Tower?

However, everyone quickly remembered that the owner of Jiangyue Tower was a woman, and reportedly a beauty herself.

Zhou Yuan and the others naturally noticed the arrival of the two. He couldn't help but look at the woman, subconsciously activating his Qi Luck Eye.

"Subject: Jiang Yefang"

"Cultivation: Celestial Phenomenon Realm Peak"

"Affection: Unknown"

"Qi Luck Value: 130000"

This result was what one would expect from a stranger. If he guessed correctly, this person was the owner of Jiangyue Tower!

Indeed, just then, Fei Yuansheng hurried forward, bowed to Jiang Yefang, and quietly recounted what had just happened.

Jiang Yefang's expression was solemn as she quickly approached the mystic heaven armor and then carefully inspected it.

Zhou Yuan glanced at it and then withdrew his gaze; if they could find any clues, that would truly be a miracle.

Just then, Zhou Yuan noticed that Xue Ji had actually gone directly to the myriad year evergreen vine, her eyes shining.

Zhou Yuan instantly realized that this kind of item was definitely a good thing for women.

The myriad year evergreen vine contained immense life force, which could be used to refine beauty-preserving pills.

Even if they didn't refine pills, refining the life force within it would also bring them great benefits!

Zhou Yuan's heart stirred, and a wicked smile involuntarily appeared on his lips. He had finally caught a scapegoat!

"Shopkeeper Jiang, we were just standing by and watching, and we were quite far away, not even touching it. This mystic heaven armor really has nothing to do with us."

"That's right, we were just curious and took a couple of extra glances. We felt that the patterns on it were never seen before and somewhat special!"

"We are all regular customers of Jiangyue Tower. If we had this ability, we wouldn't have waited until today!"

Beside Jiang Yefang, the few people who had just been observing the mystic heaven armor spoke up one after another.

Jiang Yefang frowned deeply. Clearly, this matter also exceeded her understanding, and for a moment, she was at a loss.

"Shopkeeper, they really didn't get close just now. All of us can testify!"

"But why this happened, I don't know either. I checked it the day before yesterday, and everything was fine!"

Fei Yuansheng also quickly spoke up. He wasn't trying to help them, just stating the facts!

While Jiang Yefang was handling the mystic heaven armor matter, Xue Ji had already pointed at the myriad year evergreen vine and asked a woman, "How is this item sold?"

Upon hearing this, the woman quickly replied, "Senior, please wait a moment. Because this item is particularly valuable, I will go invite Elder Fei over!"

A woman hurried to Fei Yuansheng and reported the matter.

Jiang Yefang was just at a loss on how to deal with the mystic heaven armor. Upon hearing that someone wanted to buy the myriad year evergreen vine, her eyes lit up, and she walked straight over.

Jiang Yefang came to Xue Ji's side. She hadn't seriously looked at Xue Ji just now, but upon seeing her appearance and temperament at this moment, she was slightly surprised.

She hadn't expected such a beauty to appear at Jiangyue Tower today.

However, in an instant, she felt a faint pressure emanating from Xue Ji, which made her expression solemn.

"Is this Fellow Daoist interested in buying the myriad year evergreen vine?"

Jiang Yefang smiled and greeted Xue Ji, then had Fei Yuansheng open the Restriction and retrieve the myriad year evergreen vine from inside.

As soon as the myriad year evergreen vine appeared, a unique clear fragrance immediately wafted out. Many people felt refreshed upon smelling this fragrance.

All eyes around were now drawn to the myriad year evergreen vine; such an item was absolutely rare.

However, many people knew that the price would inevitably be outrageously expensive, otherwise it wouldn't have been kept until now.

Suddenly, just then, the surrounding spiritual energy automatically began to gather towards the myriad year evergreen vine, then flowed into it.

This scene made everyone even more amazed. If it weren't for only a small section remaining, this item would have been enough to gain sentience, or even transform into human form!
