As soon as Qin Zhili went upstairs, he went straight to the Wanjian Sect's box.
Although there was the most competition between the Big Knife Sect and the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, the two sects were also the most familiar with each other, so Qin Zhili was more willing to speak to Ye Zheng.
Ye Zheng didn't embarrass him and asked directly, "How much is left?"
Qin Zhili reported a number, and everyone in the box dropped their jaws in shock.
Tu Feng said directly, "You still need two-thirds? You dare to borrow this? What will your sect use to pay you back?"
Qin Zhili shook his head: "This should be Master's concern. They won't ask me for advice."
It was rare that he didn't just hum or hum as soon as he opened his mouth. After all, when borrowing money, he should have a nicer attitude.
Gong Zhuo looked at the knife with a painful feeling: "Look at this scabbard, the knife that Senior Brother Qin pulled out seems to be only one-third of its original length."
"How about Senior Brother Qin talk to the auction house and see if we can just pay one-third of the price?"
Jiang Qingruo said with a smile: "Auction houses have their own rules. This is definitely not allowed."
Yun Feimiao nodded. "Besides, buying something like this at an auction house is inherently a gamble. The price is set, but the outcome of what you buy depends entirely on your luck."
Gong Zhuo knew what they said made sense, but he couldn't help but feel distressed: "So do we really have to borrow such a large amount of spirit stones?"
"Borrow it! As long as you have it, you can borrow it. You won't lose anything." Bai Yuanchen leaned in between them and whispered, "Our sect leader often borrows spirit stones from the Big Knife Sect. Once the account accumulates to a certain amount, we can force them to provide people to do hard labor for us."
"ah?"
Yun Feimiao and the other children were all shocked.
"Aren't we allies? Can we ask them to help with the hard labor?"
Bai Yuanchen smiled and said, "Of course, it's possible. It's precisely because they are from a friendly sect that we can't force them to pay back the money! We also want to help them find a good way to pay off their debts with work."
Yun Feimiao was curious: "What kind of hard labor can we get them to do?"
"That's a lot. For example, our seven major sects all have their own spirit stone mines, but mining is physically demanding!"
"This kind of work is usually done by outer disciples, so that they can earn a little."
"But the amount of spirit stones that outer disciples can dig is limited, and their speed is slow. How can they compare to the direct disciples of the Great Sword Sect?"
"After Junior Brother Ye helps them pay the spirit stones, before the Seven Sects Competition, the direct disciples of their Big Knife Sect can only mine in our Ten Thousand Swords Sect's territory."
"Isn't it wonderful to think about it this way?" Bai Yuanchen felt a little gloating.
Yun Feimiao nodded subconsciously, then quickly shook his head.
It's beautiful, but after all, he's a friend, so it's not good to show it too obviously.
Qin Zhili heard their whispers clearly and saw their little movements clearly, but he kept it to himself.
After he borrowed the spirit stones and walked out of the door, he sighed softly and urged caution.
The auction ended soon and everyone left one after another.
After leaving, Ye Zheng warned, "Be careful when you leave the city. We are protected by the Jin family in Golden City, but once we leave the city, those who want to kill and steal treasures will come up with endless methods."
Gong Zhuo asked in confusion, "But aren't the items auctioned by each sect kept by the chief disciple? Why would those evil cultivators target us, the little minions?"
Ye Zheng said with a smile: "Evil cultivators target all righteous cultivators, not to mention you have any misunderstandings about the minions?"
It would be fine if he said that menial disciples and outer disciples were small fry, but direct disciples were the elites of every sect, and were the targets that needed to be vigorously suppressed by evil cultivators.
Once I encounter it, I will never let it go.
The Jin family only cares about the peace in the Golden City, but not the things outside the Golden City, and they also don't allow people to set up teleportation arrays in the Golden City.
Therefore, every time a large-scale auction is held, a large number of evil cultivators will lie in ambush at the three exits leading out of the city. Even if the elders of the sect come to support, they will still be unable to defend themselves.
The order of leaving the city is also very particular. Independent cultivators and small sects are weak, so disciples from the seven major sects usually lead the way.
The disciples of Wanjian Sect and Yaowang Sect came out from the east intersection together. As soon as they came out, they stepped directly into a large-scale illusion array.
The disciples of the smaller sects and independent cultivators who followed behind saw this and quickly retreated back into the city, waiting until the evil cultivators outside the city were eliminated by the disciples of the larger sects before leaving.
Yun Feimiao had long heard of the mind-confusing illusion arrays commonly used by evil cultivators. This illusion was not a trivial one like the previous ones.
Every deceptive illusion harbors an evil creature. If you fail to identify it in time, you risk being slaughtered by it.
As soon as Yun Feimiao stepped into the illusion, he saw a group of disciples wearing the uniforms of the Wanjian Sect surrounding him, pointing and talking, belittling him to the dust and praising Luo Shuangbai to the sky.
He had dreamed of this scene before, and even experienced many similar scenes in the stronghold.
Yun Feimiao didn't care then, and he naturally wouldn't care now. He was just curious about what would happen next.
Could it be that his previous warning dream was going to be repeated?
Sure enough, after seeing that he was indifferent to these pointing and criticizing, the illusion changed the scene for him.
He seemed to be in a familiar secret place, and someone was quietly approaching him from behind. Yun Feimiao turned around and saw Situ Xin's face.
He couldn't help but frown. Even in the illusion array set up by the evil cultivator, seeing this face still made him feel unlucky.
"Miao Miao, it was all my fault before, can you forgive me?"
This "Situ Xin" looked at him with deep affection, filled with endless love and pity, just as he usually looked at Luo Shuangbai.
