The Crimson Lotus Daoist stared wide-eyed at the elixir in his hand that was emitting a strange light.
His right hand, which was holding the elixir, began to tremble slightly involuntarily, as if the elixir had an incredibly heavy weight.
His expression froze instantly, filled with disbelief.
The Crimson Lotus Daoist was a renowned alchemy master. His mastery of alchemy was unparalleled. He could understand the secrets of ordinary pills with just a glance.
However, at this moment, as he gazed at the elixir in his palm, a storm raged within him.
Based on his extensive experience and keen insight accumulated over many years, Daoist Chilian judged almost immediately that this elixir had been refined in recent years and could not possibly be a relic passed down from ancient times.
But here's the problem: based on his understanding of the alchemy world of the True Spirit Continent, there haven't been any reports of any alchemy master successfully refining such a top-grade elixir in recent years!
Who exactly created it?
Chi Lian Dao Ren was overwhelmed with emotion and could hardly contain his surging feelings, but he knew he had to remain calm and composed at this moment.
So he took a deep breath, as if trying to suppress the overwhelming shock and the surging curiosity deep into his heart.
After calming down a bit, he slowly turned his head, looked sharply at Qing Chenzi, and said, "Fellow Daoist Qing Chenzi, the value of this top-grade immortal pill far exceeds fifty billion top-grade spirit stones. You have lost!"
The sound wasn't loud, but it resonated in everyone's ears like a great bell.
Upon hearing this, Qingchenzi's face instantly turned extremely gloomy, like the oppressive and dark sky before a storm.
His chest heaved violently, clearly driven to the brink of rage, to the point that his entire body began to tremble uncontrollably.
He clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles turning slightly white from the excessive force, and stared intently at Qin Feng with a sinister gaze like that of a venomous snake, his eyes blazing with undisguised killing intent.
Qingchenzi never imagined that Qin Feng would actually have a net worth of 10 billion top-grade immortal spirit stones!
Before this, he had always firmly believed that Qin Feng was nothing more than a bluffing clown.
However, reality dealt him a harsh blow, causing the dragon-shaped grass, which he thought was in his grasp and about to be his, to vanish without a trace.
This feeling of falling from heaven to hell ignited Qing Chenzi's rage, almost consuming him completely.
However, since this was the Myriad Realms Chamber of Commerce and Xu Wanning was also present, he dared not lash out and could only forcibly suppress his anger.
"You wait, if you offend me, don't even think about leaving Thief City alive!"
Qingchenzi looked at Qin Feng with a cold gaze, uttered harsh words, and then turned and walked towards the venue door.
After watching Qing Chenzi slowly walk away, Daoist Chi Lian withdrew his gaze and turned to Qin Feng beside him, saying with a faint smile, "Fellow Daoist, this Dragon-Shaped Grass is now yours!"
After saying that, Daoist Chilian waved his hand gently, signaling the beautiful maid in a cheongsam standing not far away to come forward.
The maidservant held a delicate jade box steadily in both hands and carefully walked towards Qin Feng.
When the maid walked up to Qin Feng's carriage, she bowed respectfully and handed the jade box she was holding to Qin Feng.
Qin Feng accepted the jade box without any hesitation. Upon opening it, he found a spirit herb inside that resembled a giant dragon – the Dragon-shaped Grass.
After obtaining the Dragon-Shaped Grass, Qin Feng nodded in satisfaction, then turned to Su Liyue beside him and said softly, "Liyue, let's go."
However, at this moment, Xu Wanning, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke.
He called out in a serious tone, "Fellow Daoists, please wait a moment! In my opinion, if you leave rashly now, you may encounter considerable danger!"
"After all, this Thief City is the territory of the Thief Alliance!"
Upon hearing Xu Wanning's words, Qin Feng stopped and turned to glance at him.
Qin Feng raised an eyebrow slightly, pondering to himself: What exactly does Xu Wanning mean? Why is he suddenly showing me such goodwill? Could there be another reason...?
Just then, Su Liyue frowned, her face full of worry, and said, "That's right, if we rush out now, Qing Chenzi will undoubtedly be watching us!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Feng frowned slightly and pondered to himself.
Given the current situation, it's unlikely that the other side will let them go easily.
Moreover, if things go as expected, that treacherous Qing Chenzi has likely already made contact with the powerful figures in the Thief Alliance, and perhaps a large number of experts are on their way here right now.
Although Qin Feng's own strength had successfully recovered to its former peak, the problem was that Su Liyue beside him had not yet fully recovered from her previous serious injuries, so the true strength she could exert at this moment was less than half of her peak strength.
In this case, if the Thief Alliance really sends a super strong expert whose strength has reached the half-step Heavenly Dao Realm, then it will be no easy task for the two of them to deal with it!
Thinking of this, Qin Feng suddenly had a flash of inspiration, as if he had suddenly remembered something important.
Immediately afterwards, he smiled and slowly turned his gaze to Xu Wanning, who was standing not far away. Then, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, revealing a meaningful smile.
"Hehe... Fellow Daoist Xu, I wonder what your intention is in reminding me this time?" Qin Feng's lips curled into a cold smile as he stared intently at Xu Wanning in front of him.
Qin Feng knew all too well the deceit and intrigue in the cultivation world. Someone like Xu Wanning would never show kindness to others for no reason; he must have some ulterior motive!
Xu Wanning smiled slightly, revealing a row of clean, white teeth, and said softly, "Fellow Daoist, if I said I wanted to befriend you, would you believe me?"
As he spoke, his deep eyes were fixed on Qin Feng, as if trying to catch a clue from the changes in the other's expression.
Qin Feng raised an eyebrow slightly, shook his head without hesitation, and said decisively, "I definitely don't believe it!"
In this dog-eat-dog world of cultivation, relationships between people are often based on self-interest, and so-called friendship is nothing more than a veil of hypocrisy.
As the saying goes, one should not have the heart to harm others, but one should not be without the heart to guard against others. How could Qin Feng easily trust Xu Wanning?
