Chapter 1246 Backlash
With a "puff", Mo Shangchen spat out a mouthful of blood without any warning. His face was completely bloodless, shocking several people and they immediately asked:
"Friend Moshang, what's wrong with you?"
"But someone is plotting against you?"
"Let's find a safe place first and let Daoist Moshang calm down."
At the critical moment, Lianyi's proposal is more reliable.
Lian Xiye wanted to step forward to help the other person, but was rejected by Mo Shangchen. He bowed and said:
"I'm sorry, I'm being rude. I've suffered a backlash and it's inconvenient for me to go drink tea with you fellow Taoists. We'll meet again when there's a chance. I have to go back to my house to heal my wounds first."
After saying this, he turned around and left without waiting for anyone to respond.
The five people looked at each other, and finally Lian Xiye took the lead and led a few people into a teahouse, asked for a small room, and talked about how they met Mo Shangchen.
Because Lian Xiye was short of money, he was planning to sell some things that he couldn't use for the time being, such as low-level spiritual tools, talismans, and some low-level pills. If he went to those small shops, the prices would be lower, so he wanted to go to the market for casual cultivators to have a look.
The people setting up stalls at the casual cultivator market are all casual cultivators without any background or backing. The things they buy are varied, and can be exchanged for items or purchased with spirit stones. He wants to find a suitable price to sell them, otherwise he won't have enough spirit stones for accommodation at night.
As a result, Lian Xiye saw a storage box at a stall, and Mo Shangchen happened to like the same thing.
Originally, Mo Shangchen was not going to give in, but after seeing Lian Xiye's face clearly, he changed his mind.
"This fellow Taoist looks unfamiliar, he should not be from Moshang City, right?"
"Thank you for your courtesy, my fellow Daoist. I and my fellow disciples are here to participate in the auction of Qiwu Pavilion. We just arrived today."
Lian Xiye replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.
His words also pointed out that he was not a casual cultivator, he had the sect as his backing and fellow disciples around him. Being able to participate in the auction at Qiwu Pavilion at least proved that he had enough spirit stones.
Mo Shangchen smiled after hearing this, but he wanted to make friends with the other party, so he smiled and said:
"I wonder which sect you belong to?"
"I am an inner sect disciple of the Yuntian Sect."
Lian Xiye bowed and said.
"Nice to meet you! Nice to meet you! It seems that I have to do my best to be a good host."
Mo Shangchen said with a smile.
"Looking at your robe, you must be a disciple of Qianji Sect. What's your name, you?"
"My name is Mo Shangchen."
"So you are the son of the City Lord's Mansion. Nice to meet you!"
When Lian Xiye learned of the other party's identity, his eyes lit up and he started chatting politely without mentioning the storage box that he had taken a fancy to.
The two seemed to hit it off right away. Lian Xiye invited Mo Shangchen to have tea and introduced him to his fellow disciples. Then the previous scene happened.
"He was fine with you guys before, why did he get attacked after we came? This has nothing to do with us, right? Don't offend the people in the City Lord's Mansion before you get the spirit stones."
Du Yan said helplessly.
"It should have nothing to do with you!"
Lian Xiye said this with some uncertainty, but the corner of his eye glanced at Lianyi.
Lian Yi naturally felt Lian Xiye's gaze, but she shrugged indifferently and said:
"The cultivators of Qianji Sect have a bad habit of calculating everything they do. I guess they were either calculating my fate or calculating Fellow Daoist Du's fate, and then got backfired."
"Your fate cannot be calculated?"
Ye Qing said in surprise.
"I don't know about Fellow Daoist Du's situation. My fate is not something that a Jindan cultivator like him can predict. It would be better for the leader of the Qianji Sect to calculate it."
Ripple said arrogantly.
After these words came out, several people had different expressions, especially Lian Xiye, whose eyes flashed with a light, and then he smiled and said:
"This is not our fault. Let's wait until the auction is over before making any plans!"
"It was his own fault that he was attacked. Let's find a place to live first! Let's rent a yard with richer spiritual energy this time. I also want to reach the peak of the late Jindan stage."
Lianyi immediately changed the subject.
"Fellow Daoist Elaine is right, let's go find a place to stay now."
Then they left the teahouse together.
On the other side, Mo Shangchen returned to the City Lord's Mansion and immediately swallowed the healing medicine to start repairing the internal injuries caused by the backlash. After a big cycle, the medicine took effect and he opened his eyes.
Mo Shangchen patted his chest and began to recall what had happened.
He and Lian Xiye had previously shared a storage box because he felt that it was not an ordinary storage box, so he wanted to buy it. After meeting Lian Xiye, he had no intention of giving it up.
But after seeing the other person's face, he found that the other person was a person with great luck. Generally speaking, such people are people who want to make friends.
After learning that the other party was an inner disciple of the Yuntian Sect, Mo Shangchen became more certain of his calculations, so he chatted with the other party smoothly.
After meeting the other party's fellow disciples, he saw another person whose luck was not inferior to Lian Xiye, the female cultivator in red, so he subconsciously started to calculate, and then was backfired. This was the first time he had encountered backlash since he started practicing.
His master had told him before that the Tianji Sect observed the fortunes of heaven and earth and calculated the life principles of all beings, but there was a price to pay for revealing the secrets, so they would not easily calculate for others unless they had no other choice.
This time was an exception, but he hit a wall, so after the pain in his chest went away, he asked someone to find out about Lianyi's background, wanting to know who the other party was.
Three days passed in a flash, and the five of them went to Qiwu Pavilion together. Led by a cultivator in the late Qi Refining stage, they went to a private room on the ground floor. This was because they were auctioning the Nascent Soul Fruit, so they were given this care.
After the five people sat down, they began to browse today's auction items. Lianyi saw several natural treasures that could nourish spiritual roots. Her original body didn't understand them at the time, and she didn't need them for her own cultivation, so she donated a large sum of spirit stones to Lian Xiye, allowing him to get all these good treasures.
Without her support this time, she wanted to see if these rare treasures could still fall into Lian Xiye's hands, especially the fifth-grade Lanxi grass. Although this kind of grass is common, very few can grow to the fifth level.
This is the most gentle spiritual herb for nourishing spiritual roots. Just mix it with some common spiritual plants and refine it into a medicinal liquid. Take one drop daily for 49 days and it will have miraculous effects. It is said that it can also increase the value of spiritual roots.
Lianyi has already decided that she must get this fifth-level Lanxi grass no matter what.
In his previous life, these things entered Lian Xiye's pocket. They should have helped him cultivate his hidden spiritual roots, otherwise his cultivation would not have increased so quickly afterwards.
When Lian Xiye saw the fifth-level Lanxi grass, his heart beat faster for some reason. He vaguely felt that this spiritual herb was very important to him and wanted to take a picture of it. However, when he thought of his empty storage bag, he felt depressed.
"Ding" With the sound of a crisp gong, the auction officially began.
In a private room in the middle of the third floor, Mo Shangchen happened to be looking at the private room on the first floor where Lianyi and the others were. There was a middle-aged man with an unusually respectful attitude beside him.
My dears, here comes the fourth update. Feng Ling is out on some business. See you tomorrow~~
