35: Alchemist Conference! The Secret of Heaven

Discussions once again erupted in the venue.

"The number of people at the Spirit King Realm who came this time is not small! In Qixia City, there are several major forces, all of them old-established, and their strongest members have even reached the Late Stage Spirit King Realm."

"If there are still some Old Ancestors alive in the Family, then this purple heart emperor breaking pill is their Family's greatest reliance for a comeback."

"How can it be that simple? An Old Ancestor's Breakthrough itself only has a 30% chance of success. Even with this Spirit Pill, it's only 60%. Although that's already very high, the risk is equally not low."

"That's true! But even so, if they can truly Breakthrough to the Spirit Emperor Realm, then in Qixia City's future, besides the City Lord's Mansion and the Tianbao Auction House, that force will become the third largest force in Qixia City, and also the largest local Family."

The Heavenly Phoenix Dynasty rules over its subordinate cities.

Apart from the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion controlled by the Three Great Orthodox Sects and the City Lord's Mansion controlled by the Heavenly Phoenix Dynasty, the rest are local forces.

Under normal circumstances, neither the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion nor the City Lord's Mansion will arbitrarily interfere with the division of power within the city. Therefore, most people exclude these two top-tier affiliated organizations from their considerations!

Qixia City's three major local forces are the Zhou Family, the Zhang Family, and the Wang Family.

And at this moment, these three forces spoke up in unison, each targeting the other.

"Family Head Zhou bid 1.5 million. Are you not truly afraid that the tigress in your house will beat you alive? You've truly lost all face!"

"You don't need to worry about that, Family Head Zhao. You should focus on how to deal with the situation from the City Lord's Mansion! As far as I know, your Young Master Zhao has been quite arrogant and overbearing recently. Be careful not to offend anyone you shouldn't!"

"Enough!"

The Wang Family Head finally spoke, mediating, "In a short while, it will be the Alchemist Convention hosted by the Imperial Dynasty."

"If the progress of such a convention is delayed, I'm afraid not only Qixia City but also other cities will be held accountable."

..."Alchemist Convention?"

Hearing this, Yang Yucheng's eyes showed some interest. "I wonder if Lin Fan will come after all?"

He, Yang Yucheng, had not issued any arrest warrant.

Therefore, Lin Fan is still a Disciple of the Fengyun Sect, and he might even still possess the identity token of an Inner Sect Disciple.

Although he had already acknowledged the Grand Elder as his Master, his identity as a Personal Disciple had not yet been officially changed. Only a handful of people within the Fengyun Sect knew about his status and treatment as a Personal Disciple.

In the impression of most people, he was just an ordinary Inner Sect Disciple!

"Two million!"

At this moment, another person called out a price.

However, this time, his bid astonished everyone.

Because the bidder was not from a private room, but rather from the main hall of the venue, which was truly unimaginable.

A majestic Spirit King Realm expert was actually willing to stay here instead of being in a high-ranking position!

This peculiar phenomenon also caught Yang Yucheng's attention.

He glanced over and instantly recognized the person's identity.

Simply because this person had not made any disguise and was extremely open about his identity!

And the next second, the person's actions surprised Yang Yucheng even more!

"Hahahahaha!"

Han Ding burst into loud laughter.

As soon as he appeared, he went to Lin Fan's side and clapped his large, fan-like hand heavily on Lin Fan's back, full of heroic spirit.

"Young friend Fan Lin, this purple heart emperor breaking pill today is my gift of gratitude to you, how about it? Anyway, the Tianbao Auction House also has a part of my Xuantian Sword Sect."

"It's just transferring from the left hand to the right, I believe you will always find a use for it in the future!"

As soon as these words came out, the surrounding crowd was once again shocked.

Such a Spirit Pill for Breakthrough to the Spirit Emperor Realm was being given away so casually by this person, which was truly astonishing.

But considering that the person was from the Xuantian Sword Sect, coupled with his Spirit King Realm Aura, everyone quickly made a guess.

The person was at least a Personal Disciple of the Xuantian Sword Sect!

For a moment, everyone's gaze collectively turned to Lin Fan, full of envy!

This was the Spirit Pill that everyone wanted to obtain, yet it was being given away by someone else just like that. It was simply a no-cost transaction!

Facing the fervent gazes of the crowd, Lin Fan smiled awkwardly and shook his head, refusing!

He spoke softly, "Brother Han, don't do such a thing again. Don't you understand me? If I need this Spirit Pill, I can refine it myself!"

Lin Fan's hoarse voice slowly emerged from beneath his silver mask.

At the same time, his Spirit King Realm Aura around him also subtly settled, at this moment, deterring and warning the people around him.

"So, it's another Spirit King Realm expert!"

Everyone was surprised.

For a moment, all those previous thoughts vanished.

Two Spirit King Realm experts were not people anyone could scheme against, especially since one of them was from the Xuantian Sword Sect.

One of them was worth three.

This made it even more troublesome.

"That's right!"

Han Ding shook his head, looking extremely annoyed... "Fan Lin, I think it's Lin Fan, isn't it?"

Yang Yucheng chuckled softly.

His gaze fell directly on Lin Fan.

Even though the other party was dressed in black and wore a silver mask, his identity had already been seen through by Yang Yucheng.

"So, Lin Fan has also come here!"

"Qixia City!"

"My good Senior Brother, what a deep scheme! At first, I didn't even think of it!"

Yang Yucheng's eyes gleamed with profound wisdom.

Others might have thought this was just a coincidence, but Yang Yucheng understood that this was an inevitability within a coincidence.

It was a game of chess set by his good Senior Brother, Zhao Qingrou!

"Indeed."

"Practicing the Heavenly Secret Technique and hiding behind the scenes, the actions and deeds truly become much more convenient."

"Unfortunately, Senior Brother, you don't know."

"This time, I, your Junior Brother, am the true troublesome one behind the scenes! Behind one game of chess, there is another game."

"The chess player considers himself a chess player, but little does he know that he is also just a pawn in someone else's game. This time, let's see how I, this chess player, will take down you, Senior Brother, this pawn!"

As these thoughts settled in Yang Yucheng's mind, a smile deepened on his lips.

Some things, once encountered, will make everything clear in an instant.

And Yang Yucheng's luck seemed to be truly good.

"Since that's the case, it's about time I and Lin Fan had a good meeting!"

"After all, no matter what, on the surface, I am his Sect Head Senior Brother!"

Yang Yucheng's heart stirred.

In other places, he might have had some apprehension towards Lin Fan, but here, at the Tianbao Auction House, with the Spirit Devouring Formation Array in place, and the zhaoshen treasure mirror, including some trump cards his troublesome Sect Master Master left for him before leaving, dealing with a Spirit Venerable was still barely achievable.

At the very least, a safe retreat was guaranteed.
