But now it seems that the facts are far from what she thought.
Who is Wen Zizhen?
He is the city lord who rules over a region and has deep scheming. He is a powerful man with perfect acupoints and is only half a step away from becoming a god!
Such an existence that was once out of her reach was manipulated by Sister Li, and she is still in the dark and has not noticed anything.
Sister Li is so awesome!
Yuan Jing's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but sit up straight. "Then Sister Li, what are our plans for the next step?"
"Of course, we'll do whatever Wen Zizhen arranges."
Xiang Sheng laughed, "Do you really expect me to have a fair fight with Wen Zizhen?"
Yuan Jing looked a little embarrassed, "I'm not thoughtful enough, please don't blame me."
"I don't blame you."
Xiang Sheng put down the teacup and said, "I told you this in advance because I was afraid that you would be worried and upset these past two days and cause trouble.
The auction is only a few days away, so you need to be careful not to let Wen Zi see through you. Otherwise, you might be fine, but my life will be in danger."
Yuan Jing's expression immediately became stern and she nodded seriously.
Xiang Sheng then asked, "How's your bloodline magical power going?"
"It has been refined."
Speaking of magical powers, Yuan Jing's expression relaxed considerably. "That magical power is a natural fit for me. I was able to master it after just one look. Now, I've mastered it thoroughly, and can cast spells in just half a breath."
Xiang Sheng hummed, "Wen Zizhen will definitely test the effectiveness of your magical powers, remember to leave some room for yourself."
Yuan Jing was stunned for a moment, then immediately nodded.
That night, Wen Zizhen called Yuan Jing to test the effect of his magical powers.
Yuan Jing took Xiang Sheng's words to heart and deliberately slowed down the speed of casting the spell, extending the time to five breaths before he "laborious"ly pointed out the location of the earth vein.
Even so, Wen Zizheng still looked happy. He hurriedly told Wen Yi to send the person back to the side courtyard, and then left in a hurry.
…
At the same time, inside the guest house of the City Lord's Mansion, a soundproof barrier was clearly in place.
Luo Qingyun and others were sitting together, discussing important matters.
"Have you found out clearly that the people from the Wuji Immortal Sect haven't arrived yet?"
The woman who asked this question was dressed in a white dress and sat in the first seat. She was obviously the leader of the disciples of Piaoxue Palace this time.
This woman is not Luo Qingyun as described in external intelligence. She looks very unfamiliar.
Luo Qingyun was sitting on the right. When she heard the woman's question, she immediately said, "I'm personally watching this matter. I won't be wrong."
The woman in white narrowed her eyes and said in a cold voice, "It seems they are still the same as before, planning to show up on the day of the auction..."
Lin Beilan, who was sitting at the bottom left, frowned slightly upon hearing this. "What's the logic behind this? Why didn't you come and tell us earlier?"
"People from the Wuji Immortal Sect have always been arrogant."
The woman in white sneered, "After all these years, they still haven't changed their bad temper of looking down on others."
Luo Qingyun frowned, "Jiang Yi and the others are not that kind of people."
The woman in white shook her head, "The Tomb of Emperor Tianlong is related to the method of ascension. The Wuji Immortal Sect will at least send a spirit-transforming person to investigate the situation like we did.
Your old friends may be just as worried about the safety of the East Continent God as you are, but they cannot go beyond the rules of the Wuji Immortal Sect."
Luo Qingyun felt disappointed when she heard these words.
The upper limit of Dongzhou is too low. The former sect leaders and elders have become disciples who obey orders after arriving in Xizhou.
Over the past sixty years, she has been practicing diligently in Piaoxue Palace and has now reached the middle stage of the out-of-body state.
Jiang Yi is a reincarnated person, so his cultivation level cannot be lower than hers.
I wonder if he has already crossed the chasm and achieved the state of incarnation...
Seeing Luo Qingyun lost in thought, the woman in white said softly, "I know you're worried about Xiang Sheng, but overthinking is pointless.
This matter still needs to be verified. The auction will be held in two days. Whether it is true or not will be known when we ask."
Luo Qingyun regained her composure and nodded slightly to show that she understood.
Next, everyone talked about the information they had gathered in the city and tried to distinguish the truth from the false.
An hour later, the discussion came to an end.
Suddenly someone at the table started talking about the Yuan family who had suddenly moved out of Xitian City.
"This disciple knows a thing or two about this matter."
Tang Yin, who was sitting at the end of the seat, suddenly spoke up: "The Yuan family has an only daughter who is very beautiful. The city lord took a fancy to her and took her in as a concubine. She now lives in a side courtyard to the west.
I even went to see it, but was stopped halfway. From a distance, I could see that the side courtyard was shrouded in a trap. I guess the only daughter of the Yuan family didn't come into the mansion voluntarily."
As soon as these words came out, the white-clothed woman's face darkened. "Is this really true?"
One of the purposes of establishing Piaoxue Palace is to protect female cultivators from being bullied by male cultivators.
Wen Zi really dared to do such a thing under their noses. How is it different from a blatant provocation?
