Shu Mei looked at Yun Qinghuan's serious expression and couldn't help but pursed his lips and smiled.
She reached out her hand and stroked Yun Qinghuan's cheek. It was still as rough as before, but she felt warm. Perhaps it was the emotion that burst out from the bottom of her heart, controlling her senses. She said to Yun Qinghuan seriously, "I, Ling Shumei, will expel Yun Qinghuan from my Danding Mountain sect today. The relationship between me, Ling Shumei, and Yun Qinghuan as master and disciple is severed. When we meet again from now on, we will go our separate ways."
Before she finished speaking, she saw from the corner of her eye that Yun Qinghuan's face had turned completely dark. Don't ask her how she could tell this change from the other person's dark face; she just had that feeling.
Before Yun Qinghuan could reveal a cruel and overbearing expression, Shu Mei burst out laughing and said, "I was just joking with you."
With just one sentence, she skimmed over the deeper meaning of what she had said before. Expelling Yun Qinghuan from the Danding Mountain sect was actually her role and mission.
She remembered this incident more than fifty years ago.
Shu Mei still remembered her three tasks. If she didn't personally expel Yun Qinghuan from the sect, then her first task would not be completed.
As for the master-disciple relationship between Ling Shumei and Yun Qinghuan, compared with the life-and-death mission, it seems not so important. You must know that the world of immortal cultivation is full of petty thieves, and the master-disciple relationship is not an absolute guarantee. Compared with these false names, Shumei cares more about something real.
As long as she knew that Yun Qinghuan had her in his heart, that was enough.
Sure enough, after Shu Mei said this, Yun Qinghuan's face immediately looked better. She hugged Shu Mei and turned over on the bed, letting Shu Mei lean on her. Their bodies were intertwined. The apparently quiet environment was made warm and romantic by the two of them.
Shu Mei rarely struggled, but just nestled quietly in Qing Huan's arms. Although the other's skin was not so soft and smooth, the heartbeat coming from his body made her feel at ease.
After a long time, Shu Mei finally spoke: "Since you have successfully become a demon and returned to the world of immortal cultivation, then...how do you plan to take revenge next!"
Yun Qinghuan stroked Shu Mei's smooth long hair from time to time and said nonchalantly, "Don't worry, Master, I have arranged everything. Next, an auction will be held in Baima City. Many famous people in the cultivation world will come here to participate in this auction, and I can take this opportunity to catch them all in one fell swoop."
After she finished speaking, she saw that Shu Mei's face was still tangled and he was still a little worried, so she smiled and said, "Master, have you forgotten what happened at the market? Since I have made preparations, I will certainly not let them escape, so don't worry, Master. Even if a few of them get away this time, I will never let them off easily the next time, or the time after that."
There is a confidence in her conversation that suggests she is in control of everything.
But this self-confidence, in the eyes of Shu Mei in the past, was arrogance and conceit.
This was also the reason why she didn't like this person, because the other person was too dazzling, while she was just an ordinary person. The other person kept pestering her as if she was just a plaything.
Shu Mei thought that he was not a proud person, but he had the self-respect of a human being, so he naturally looked down on Yun Qinghuan's behavior.
But after spending so many years together in different worlds, she has a deeper understanding of Yun Qinghuan's abilities. She knows that her confidence is real confidence. She does not deliberately emphasize her abilities, but what she does is indeed shocking.
Shu Mei thought of how he had been serious and tried to avoid Yun Qinghuan in the past. He also remembered that no matter what, the other party never let go of his hand and insisted on chasing him from one world to another. Somehow, Shu Mei's eyes became red.
She lay in Yun Qinghuan's arms as if nothing had happened, her movements calm and obedient. Yun Qinghuan vaguely sensed that the other person was in a low mood, but she obviously didn't want to say more, so she considerately didn't ask any questions. Instead, she gently patted Shu Mei's shoulders, allowing her to fall asleep comfortably.
Just like that, after a few days, this grand auction was officially held at the auction venue temporarily built in the center of Baima City.
Before the auction begins, every person who wants to participate in the auction will receive a mask and a cloak at the entrance of the auction venue. As long as they put on the cloak and mask, they can conceal their body shape and voice.
This move is a common practice at auctions, to prevent the monks who have won the bids for the sky-high-priced items from being targeted by other people with bad intentions, thus causing many subsequent troubles.
Shu Mei and Yun Qinghuan arrived at the auction not too early, but not too late either. After receiving their cloaks and masks, Shu Mei gave a few mid-grade spirit stones to the steward who was guarding the gate of the auction venue.
Don't underestimate the word 'several pieces'. You should know that one medium-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for one hundred low-grade spirit stones. The monthly salary of these managers is only fifty low-grade spirit stones, so Shu Mei's move can be considered extremely generous.
The manager's eyes suddenly lit up, and he took out a scroll from his sleeve and handed it to Shu Mei.
Shu Mei smiled and put the scroll that the other party stuffed into his storage bag.
She had participated in several auctions and knew some things. She knew clearly that the items drawn on the scroll were the ones that would be auctioned in this auction.
Although, after arriving at the auction venue, there will be special people to distribute such scrolls, the only difference is the time.
However, being able to see the auction items earlier will also make people feel like they have made a profit.
Shu Mei took one more look at the manager, but before she could see his face clearly, Yun Qinghuan, who was pretending to be handsome, pulled her sleeve jealously, making Shu Mei laugh and cry.
The reason why Shu Mei looked at the steward was simply because this steward was able to obtain the scroll, and must be an extraordinary person. Shu Mei also owed him a favor, so he looked at him a few more times, but he didn't want to make Yun Qinghuan, who was jealous, jealous.
Shu Mei quickly turned his head and took out four medium-grade spirit stones from his storage bag and handed them over. Under the other party's meaningful gaze, he took Yun Qinghuan, put on a cloak and mask, and walked quickly into the auction venue.
Their seats were arranged first, in a location on the west side of the second floor, which was not very good, but was much better than the seats for the monks on the first floor.
Shu Mei opened the scroll and read it carefully.
She doesn't really care about the resources of this world of immortal cultivation. After all, in the past hundred years, she has obtained a lot of golden fingers that originally belonged to the heroine. With these golden fingers of the protagonist in hand, she has never lacked resources. This can be seen from the fact that she can also draw out a large part of the immortal cultivation resources to support the members of the Xiaoyao League.
The reason why she opened the scroll and took a look was just to kill time.
You know, there are still nearly two hours before the auction officially starts, and the thing that people in the world of immortal cultivation have the most is time. But it was really boring to keep waiting like this, so she had no choice but to look at the scroll.
But when her eyes fell on the scroll, she remembered her third role mission, which was to obtain the Monster Scroll and give it to the heroine.
But Shu Mei had no idea what the Demon Spirit Scroll was.
During this hundred years, she also spent a lot of effort to find the Demon Spirit Scroll. During this period, she even read the novel "It's Not Easy to Be a Female Lead in Immortal Cultivation" over and over again at least a hundred times, but she still couldn't find the Demon Spirit Scroll.
She was wondering before, maybe this was another conspiracy of the main system, just to prevent her from completing the task.
You know, if she fails to complete her mission and doesn't fall in love with the heroine, then after her soul dissipates, the heroine's bet will naturally be considered a failure.
It was at this time that she completely saw through the conspiracy of the main system.
Seeing the auction scroll again today, Shu Mei couldn't help but admire in his heart: As expected of a guy in the main system, he could actually calculate so many things. It's a pity that Yun Yun, who was so smart all his life, actually suffered such a big setback in the main system.
But Shu Lu knew more clearly that Yun Yun did this only because of her, which made Shu Lu feel even more guilty.
Yun Qinghuan was originally sitting on one side, calmly holding a cup of spiritual tea and tasting it slowly. From the looks of it, she was really into it. However, Shu Mei knew very well that as a member of the demon clan, Yun Qinghuan could not taste any flavor of the world of immortal cultivation, and she was just pretending.
Yun Qinghuan drank tea by herself. After a long time, she saw Shu Mei still holding the scroll and not moving for a long time, so she knew that he was already lost in his emotions.
She had refrained from asking at first, but when she saw the other party's brows twisted, she took the initiative to speak: "Is there anything you like? When I left the Demon Realm this time, I also found some demon spiritual plants that can be used to refine poison pills, which are extremely useful. One spiritual plant can be exchanged for hundreds of top-grade spiritual stones in the human world of cultivation, so I have no shortage of money. If you like anything, tell me and I can auction it off for you."
She said these words with the intention of trying to please Shu Mei, but her tone was too arrogant and made people feel that something was wrong.
Fortunately, Shu Mei already knew her character and didn't take it too seriously. Instead, he smiled and nodded.
The two of them looked at the scroll together. After two hours, when most people had finally arrived at the auction venue, the auction officially began. The scene suddenly became lively.
Even though there were many people who just watched and didn't make any purchases, the atmosphere on the scene was heated up. Even Shu Mei, who had originally planned to watch, was tempted to shop.
She couldn't help but smile, thinking: The atmosphere of this auction is very similar to the crazy shopping festivals she encountered in her previous life on Earth. Both of them are about heating up the atmosphere and getting one group of people to lead another group to buy goods at the auction. The desire to shop is probably human instinct, and this may be one of the reasons why auctions can be carried out in full swing.
But Shu Mei finally calmed down and watched patiently.
While she was watching with great interest, Yun Qinghuan beside her suddenly patted her shoulder, pointed in a direction, and said, "Among the people over there is Master Yu Liu who destroyed my spiritual roots. Should we go meet him?"
Shu Mei looked in the direction she pointed, and saw a group of people sitting in the corner. They were also wearing cloaks and masks given by the auction venue, but their real faces could not be seen.
However, for Yun Qinghuan, a demon with very sharp senses, the other party's breath was very obvious, so he could actually feel the other party's presence among so many people.
Shu Mei vaguely felt that there would be a good show to watch next, so he nodded.
Yun Qinghuan narrowed his eyes and smiled like a fox. With this expression on his fake face, he looked very honest.
As soon as Shu Lu stood up, Yun Qinghuan had already walked towards the man. Seeing this, Shu Lu quickly stood up and followed, watching how Yun Qinghuan took revenge.
