Soon, the auctioneers brought the glass lamp, and Gu Qingxi paid for it and took it away.
The voice of the Wanling Patriarch sounded again: "Qingxi, thank you."
This was the first time that the Wanling Patriarch thanked her so sincerely.
"Is this something from your old friend?" Gu Qingxi asked.
The Wanling Patriarch was silent for a while, and then whispered: "This was made by my master, I can't be wrong. There should be a special mark of the master on the bottom."
Gu Qingxi was also silent. There were some questions that she didn't even dare to ask the Wanling Patriarch, such as asking if his master was still alive?
Such a cruel question, Gu Qingxi couldn't ask.
"You may meet again. I will help you." Gu Qingxi finally said this in a deep voice.
"Thank you." The Wanling Patriarch said softly, but this sentence was full of too many emotions. After saying this, the Wanling Patriarch was silent again.
...
As soon as Gu Qingxi left the auction house, she saw Zhang Lingshan looking at her sinisterly not far away.
At this time, Zhang Lingshan finally regained her senses. Thinking of how much money she had spent, and how much money she had spent on buying herbs for the sect, her heart was bleeding. Her hatred for Gu Qingxi was even more insane.
"Qingxi, she will definitely not let it go." Gao Zhiying frowned and said.
"I know, don't worry." Gu Qingxi comforted Gao Zhiying.
"She doesn't dare to attack you here. If you rashly cause trouble without any reason, you will violate the rules set by the Lord of Southern Xinjiang. Neither she nor the sect behind her will have an easy time." Gao Zhiying pulled Gu Qingxi away, and whispered to explain to Gu Qingxi as they walked.
"What kind of person is the Lord of Southern Xinjiang?" Gu Qingxi finally asked the question that had always been in her mind. It seemed that what Ye Wuchen said to her was not comprehensive.
"She is very strong. She seems to do whatever she wants, but she seems to be very principled. She has set a series of rules to manage Southern Xinjiang, and no one can violate them. It is true that she likes handsome men and beautiful women. It is also true that she is moody. It is said that she can smile at someone one moment, and almost twist someone's head off the next moment." Gao Zhiying thought about it and said what she knew.
"Do the rules include not causing trouble without reason, not killing innocent people, etc.?" Gu Qingxi asked.
"Yes! You know that the Demon Sect is not like the Immortal Sect. The Demon Cultivators are unruly. Although most of them have a bottom line, some Demon Cultivators are really troublesome. It is said that before Qu Feixuan came here, this place was simply wild and the Demon Sect was not a big deal. The Demon Cultivators formed gangs today and stabbed you in the back tomorrow.
After she came here alone, she used thundering means to subdue the strongest Demon Cultivators here, and then founded the largest Demon Sect, the Nightmare Demon Sect. Later, more and more Demon Sects submitted to her. She managed Southern Xinjiang in an orderly manner. Southern Xinjiang later began to trade with other regions, and it became more and more prosperous." When Gao Zhiying said this, there was unconcealable admiration in her eyes.
"Then she is really amazing." Gu Qingxi also nodded with emotion. A female cultivator came to the chaotic Southern Xinjiang alone, and finally managed Southern Xinjiang in an orderly manner and made it prosperous. It was really amazing.
"So you see Zhang Lingshan hates you to death, but she definitely doesn't dare to attack you on the street." Gao Zhiying whispered, "So we have to take precautions in private. When the alchemy competition here is over, you leave quietly and I will send someone to escort you."
Gao Zhiying was still very worried. Because she had heard of the reputation of Xuansha Sect's arrogance and domineering. If it weren't for the prestige of the Lord of Southern Xinjiang, it is unknown whether Xuansha Sect would do street robbery.
Gu Qingxi did not refute Gao Zhiying's words. She didn't want to reject Gao Zhiying's kindness. But she had her own plans in mind.
Zhang Lingshan looked at Gu Qingxi's back and whispered to the people around him: "Brother Lin, find someone to follow her and intercept her when she leaves Yunyan City."
"Well, don't worry, Junior Sister." Brother Lin looked at Gu Qingxi's back with a cold look. Not to mention that Zhang Lingshan would not let her go, they would definitely not let her go.
In the next few days, Gu Qingxi did not go out again. She and Gao Zhiying stayed in the guest house of Yunyan Sect, eating, drinking, practicing, and letting Xiaojiu out at night to absorb the moonlight.
Every time at this time, Gao Zhiying looked at the small flower on Xiaojiu's head with a complicated face. It is rare for a spiritual pet to be so conceited.
Soon, the alchemy competition of Yunyan Sect began.
Gu Qingxi went to the designated location at the specified time.
It was in the center of the wide square in front of the main hall of Yunyan Sect. The surroundings were blocked and full of Yunyan Sect disciples who maintained order.
Gu Qingxi was assigned to the most central position.
Gu Qingxi: "..." It's over! I'm going to die! Everyone will see her weighing the medicinal materials with a scale in a while! It seems that it's not so easy to get the wool. Is it too late for me to quit now?
"Miss Gu, what a coincidence." At this time, a familiar slow voice sounded.
Gu Qingxi turned her head and met the dazed Feng Mingyu.
"Ah, Master Feng, what a coincidence." Gu Qingxi smiled. It was indeed a coincidence that Feng Mingyu was right next to her.
"Just call me Brother Feng." Feng Mingyu said slowly, and then began to sort out the medicinal materials on the table.
The medicinal materials used in this alchemy competition are all provided by Yunyan Sect, and they must be provided by Yunyan Sect. Once they are used up, you must not use the medicinal materials you brought with you, otherwise you will be disqualified from the competition even if you violate the rules.
"Brother Feng." Gu Qingxi called out obediently, and then began to sort out the medicinal materials on her table.
At the same time, Gao Zhiying stood on the periphery, staring at Gu Qingxi's movements without moving her eyes away.
"Tsk, what a coincidence. Gao Zhiying, the person you found is very close to the Master Feng I invited. This is really a bit miserable. With such a strong contrast, your friends may have to find a crack in the ground to hide in." Fan Wen Ning came to Gao Zhiying at some point and mocked her.
"Mind your own business." Gao Zhiying was too lazy to talk nonsense with Fan Wen Ning. She thought Fan Wen Ning was a fool!
"Look, your friend has a flattering smile on his face. He must be trying to please Master Feng and get some advice, right?" Fan Wen Ning didn't mind Gao Zhiying's cold words at all. Instead, he watched the interaction between Gu Qingxi and Feng Mingyu in the central room with relish and guessed.
Gao Zhiying looked at Fan Wen Ning with a mentally retarded look and sneered, "I think it would be better for you to write a storybook. You have a rich imagination."
After saying this, she ignored Fan Wen Ning.
Fan Wen Ning originally wanted to make a sarcastic remark, but seeing Gao Zhiying's avoidance, he gritted his teeth. Just wait, when he gets the longevity pill, even if Gao Zhiying kneels in front of him and begs him, he won't sell it! See how he deals with her!
Soon, the alchemy competition began.
The rules of the preliminary round were very simple. Use the medicinal materials provided by Yunyan Sect to refine the Tranquility Pill, the Gathering Spirit Pill, and the Initial Spirit Pill.
The more basic and simple the pills are, the more they can show the ability of an alchemist.
This statement is not absolute, but it certainly makes sense.
After an elder of Yunyan Sect lit a stick of incense, he announced the start.
The participating alchemists began to refine the pills.
Gu Qingxi took out his small alchemy furnace and small silver scale and began to weigh the medicinal materials.
Gu Qingxi's move was very conspicuous, and he stood out from the crowd!
