They came from Good Man Island, and they themselves didn't know where they would end up, while the Shadow Lodge was able to ambush them in that mountain range.
There are two possibilities in this situation: one is that they were betrayed by the Good People's Association.
Secondly, what tracking techniques does the Shadow Pavilion possess?
It's about 50/50 between these two possibilities.
However, after entering Ning'an City, they were very careful to conceal their presence. They even hid in Little Fatty's space to change all their auras and took turns going out for a stroll before entering Qingyun Inn.
Logically speaking, even with all that caution, the Shadow Pavilion shouldn't still be able to pinpoint their location so accurately.
But the other side actually did it. It has to be said that the number one assassin organization in the spirit world is quite capable.
Su Jiuli gently stroked the teacup with her well-defined fingers. "No matter how they tracked us down, we need to be more careful from now on."
Then he smirked: "The Shadow Pavilion has an unwritten rule that if a team accepts a mission but fails to complete it, the mission will be reassigned. The previous Silver Ugly Squad is all dead, and this one is also out of the body. It should be the Silver Squad from the Silver Masked Assassins."
Ye Sisi thought so too. The assassins of the Shadow Pavilion were ordered according to the Chinese zodiac. Above the Silver Ugly Squad, only the Silver Squad was more powerful than them, and above that was the Golden Masked Assassin.
The Golden-Faced Assassin's cultivation level was at least at the Nascent Soul stage, and he wouldn't interfere recklessly before the Silver Squad was completely wiped out, since everyone needs to achieve results when working.
Moreover, the Shadow Pavilion members didn't think the Silver Squad couldn't handle just a few assassinations, since they were all top-tier talents skilled in assassination and battle-hardened.
If they were to send out the Golden Masked Assassins in a big way, it would be beneath the dignity of the Shadow Pavilion.
At this moment, the people of Shadow Pavilion were unaware that they had made the worst decision of their lives.
Ye Sisi continued Su Jiuli's words, "According to the rules of the Shadow Pavilion, no other team will be sent to intervene at the same time before the mission fails, so we are currently facing a maximum of three Nascent Soul Peak experts."
Su Jiuli nodded with a smile: "That's how it should be in common sense, but we have to be on the safe side. However, it's still okay to keep them hanging for a while."
Ye Shubai said coolly from the side, "Aren't you guys overlooking one thing? If the Silver Squad fails to complete the mission within three months, the mission will be forcibly assigned to a higher-level squad."
Lin Shuangluo, who hadn't spoken until now, said, "Three months from now, you still won't be able to beat those guys from the Golden Mask Squad?"
Ye Shubai...
Why is this third senior brother so arrogant? Even the weakest Golden Mask Squad is completely distracted, okay?
Even if they are incredibly powerful, they can only break through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm at most in three months.
Wait a minute, if you're in the late stage of the Out-of-Body realm, it seems like you could put up a fight against three Nascent Soul cultivators. It's a battle against opponents of higher levels, they're good at that. Although it might be a little difficult, surviving shouldn't be a problem.
The crucial question was glossed over in a few words: "It's just the Shadow Pavilion, nothing special."
Just then, a dazzling light shone in the auction hall.
A graceful female cultivator in green robes walked onto the auction stage.
The nun was extremely beautiful, not stunning at first glance, but her beauty was gentle and serene like a flowing stream.
Her face was like a silver plate, her eyebrows like distant mountains, and what was most captivating were her bright eyes, which seemed to hold the autumn water, clean and clear, as if they could see through people's hearts.
Ye Sisi looked at those eyes and stood up in surprise: "Ah, she actually has the legendary Ruoshui eyes."
Ruoshui Tong is a type of heterochromatic eye that can see through all illusions. No illusion can escape her eyes. Although it is not very practical, this is the first time she has encountered someone with heterochromatic eyes since the original female lead and Ruoshui Tong.
Su Jiuli and the others were also surprised for a moment. Heterochromatic eyes were indeed very rare, but they were only surprised for a short while.
Ye Sisi slowly sat back in her chair and murmured, "This person is so strange."
Even though there was a barrier between them, she felt very strange when she stared at those bright, clear eyes, as if those eyes didn't belong to her and had been forcibly installed on her.
This reminded her of the original owner's experiences in the sketchbook; wasn't she also in trouble because of her eyes?
But before she could continue her wild thoughts...
The young lady in green greeted us with a smile and said, "Welcome, distinguished guests, to the Qinglan Auction House. Without further ado, let's look at the first item up for auction tonight."
As soon as Qingli finished speaking, two equally beautiful women in purple robes gracefully approached.
One person holds a tray in their hand, while the other cups their hands on their lower abdomen.
The two walked to Qingli's side and stood still. The empty-handed young lady gently lifted the red cloth off the tray with her delicate hand.
As soon as the red cloth was lifted, a vibrant red flower, the size of a washbasin, appeared before everyone's eyes.
The Soul-Giving Flower can not only be used to refine pills and medicines, but it can also be eaten as a snack to repair the soul, although its effectiveness is greatly reduced.
Under normal circumstances, the Thousand-Year Soul-Nourishing Flower, a rare spiritual medicine that can enhance the soul, would definitely be priced exorbitantly, even though there are very few people who can actually refine a top-grade Soul-Nourishing Pill.
But today is different. The Qinglan Chamber of Commerce's final auction item is a top-grade Soul Nourishing Pill. You should know that even if you have money and materials, you can't find someone to refine a top-grade Soul Nourishing Pill. If you can win it at the auction, it's much better than bidding on a pretty but useless Soul-Giving Flower.
That's a top-grade Soul Nourishing Pill that even a level nine alchemist might not be able to refine. If someone's soul is damaged, taking one will guarantee a cure, and if someone's soul isn't injured, taking it might even lead to a breakthrough.
This is one of the reasons why this auction was so lively; the one who brought out the Soul Nourishing Pill was none other than Su Jiuli.
