Chapter 4: Dog Eyes Look Down on People
Jiang Jiusheng practiced until the sky was bright, and then she successfully integrated the skills. New power was injected into the Dantian, and a slight crackling sound was heard.
Breakthrough.
Eighth Stage of Bone Refining!
Jiang Jiusheng calculated that there was less than a month left before the next academy assessment. She must break through to the first stage of marrow refining within a month, otherwise she would be expelled from the academy.
She tidied herself up and looked at her face in the mirror. The scars that stretched vertically and horizontally destroyed the complexion of the whole face, which looked ferocious and terrifying.
After taking the elixir last night, her body has been much better, but this face still needs time to recover, so she can only wear a veil for the time being.
Then, she took out a bottle of elixir from the Xuantian Ring and went straight to the auction house.
The Daqian Dynasty is a vassal dynasty of the Xuantian Holy Dynasty, and the resources of elixirs are relatively scarce. She was used to using spirit stones as currency in the Xuantian Holy Dynasty, but the Daqian Dynasty still needs silver.
With only the money she got from Zhao Yingying and others yesterday, it is definitely not enough to buy a yard in Tianlong City. She can't continue to live here, lest the other party comes to her.
Even if they don't come to her, this dilapidated environment is not suitable for living, let alone Jiang Tianyi's recuperation.
Jiang Jiusheng came to the auction house according to her memory. The huge auction house is a very distinctive building in Tianlong City, with three floors, magnificent and splendid.
"Go away, what are you doing here, beggar?"
The waiter at the gate of the auction house saw Jiang Jiusheng wearing a simple linen dress that was washed pale. Although her face was covered, it could not hide the sour air that permeated her body.
"Shut your dog mouth, I want to see your manager."
The woman's cold and distant voice rang out, and her black eyes were filled with bone-chilling coldness. She was obviously dressed in shabby clothes, but her temperament was outstanding, which could not be ignored.
"Who are you? You asked to see our manager right away, but you don't even know if you are worthy!"
The gatekeeper's eyes flashed with suspicion. He had seen many poor guys come here to make trouble, and seeing Jiang Jiusheng wearing a veil to cover up, he reached out and grabbed her. He wanted to see what she looked like and how she dared to cheat here!
Jiang Jiusheng's eyebrows were filled with impatience, and her white fingers were slightly raised, with a silver light flashing.
"Ah——"
The man screamed and knelt down in front of Jiang Jiusheng.
"Such a great honor?"
Jiang Jiusheng laughed sarcastically and walked in past the man. The man's face turned red, and he held her with a grin, "Stop right there!"
Seeing that the man was not giving in, Jiang Jiusheng's eyes flashed with ruthlessness, but before she could make a move, the man was kicked out.
"Bang!"
The huge movement instantly attracted the people in the auction house, and they all looked over here.
Jiang Jiusheng turned her head and saw a tall and handsome figure.
The man looked extremely evil, with delicate and noble features that seemed to be carefully carved by God, without any flaws. His eyes were as bright as the stars in the dark night. At this moment, his handsome face was stained with impatience, with a rebellious and evil world-weary aura, as if someone had ruined his mood. Even
though Jiang Jiusheng had seen many proud sons of heaven, he had to admit that the man in front of him was really good-looking.
"Who dares to kick me, are you looking for death?" The man got up angrily, but when he saw the man standing with his back to the light, his face changed instantly, "Jun, Jun Gongzi?"
Jiang Jiusheng saw that the arrogant and domineering face of the villain became panic-stricken and terrified, and the blood color faded in an instant, and he was as obedient as a lackey, and he knew that the identity of the man in front of him was not simple!
"Get lost."
Jun Si raised his eyebrows gloomily and spat out a word coldly.
"Yes, yes, yes."
The man rolled and crawled away, and Jiang Jiusheng met the man's cold eyes.
Jun Si looked at the woman in front of him. She was dressed simply and wore a veil so that her face could not be seen clearly. Only her eyes were as bright as glass, which made people's eyes bright.
The faint fragrance on her body was refreshing and pleasant, which unconsciously made him feel less irritable.
The next moment, Jun Si walked into the auction house.
"Brother Si, don't get angry with such a short-sighted guy so early in the morning." Luo Zishang followed behind Jun Si, thinking that Brother Si's morning grumpiness was terrible, and that kick might have caused internal injuries. "What are you going to buy today? I think the medicine last time is good and effective for cultivation."
Jiang Jiusheng's eyes swept over the familiar clothes on Luo Zishang, and her eyebrows slightly raised. She was from the same academy as him? He
was so arrogant and domineering, so he must have been a big character in the academy, but there was no memory in her mind, which showed that her sister didn't know him.
Seeing the two disappear from her sight, Jiang Jiusheng went straight to the consignment office.
"I want to sell pills."
The straightforward words startled the treasure appraiser, "Girl, you want to sell pills?"
"Third-grade Soul Gathering Pills, genuine goods, you can try it."
Jiang Jiusheng specially selected the pills. The Soul Gathering Pills are of great use to cultivators who want to break through to the Xiantian realm. There are many students in Canglan Academy, and the third-grade Soul Gathering Pills are not difficult to sell.
The treasure appraiser's eyes lit up when he heard about the Soul Gathering Pills. In Tianlong City, the Soul Gathering Pills are the most popular pills.
Even the first and second-grade Soul Gathering Pills will be fought over, not to mention the third-grade Soul Gathering Pills, which are rare even in auction houses!
The girl in front of him looked penniless, but she actually had such a treasure!
After testing the ammunition, the treasure appraiser's face lit up and his attitude became polite, "It is indeed the third-grade Guiling Pill, young lady, the next auction will be in a few days, then..."
"One price, two hundred thousand taels." Jiang Jiusheng interrupted him, "The extra is yours."
She was in urgent need of money and had no time to waste. Before the Zhao family came to her door, she had to move away with her father.
The treasure appraiser was stunned, but thinking about the value of the third-grade Juling Pill, two hundred thousand taels of silver, the auction house would not lose!
"Okay, then do as you say."
In a moment, Jiang Jiuli left the auction house with two hundred thousand taels and began to look for a suitable place to live in the huge Tianlong City.
It was still early, and the Zhao family hadn't had time to look for her yet. However, with Zhao Yingying's vindictive nature, it was only a matter of time before she came looking for her.
Spiritual energy surged between her hands, and a small spirit-seeking formation appeared, guiding her to a place with rich spiritual energy.
"Master, this place is really strange. We are clearly walking towards a place where spiritual energy gathers, but why is the surrounding area becoming more and more desolate?"
Ling'er couldn't help but wonder. Logically, the more concentrated the spiritual energy is, the more suitable it is for cultivators to live in. Even ordinary people can live longer if they live here.
In the Xuantian Holy Dynasty, everyone is vying for this kind of treasure land. Even if the Daqian Dynasty lags behind, it shouldn't be that no one has discovered this treasure land, right?
"It's really strange."
Jiang Jiusheng walked forward and found that the spiritual energy that should have become more and more concentrated suddenly began to dissipate.
"It's gone completely?"
