"How about selling this bell to me?"

"Why don't you say anything? Stop backing away!"

"If you don't say anything, I'll assume you gave me this bell as a gift!"

"Still not talking? Then I'll grab it... No, I'll take it!"

Qin Lang approached Wang Bufan step by step.

At this moment, although Wang Bufan was ugly, he looked extremely cute in his eyes.

"Bring it here!"

Seeing that Wang Bufan "agreed", Qin Lang snatched the Soul-Capture Bell from Wang Bufan.

"Ahhh! Don't kill me!"

Wang Bufan was so scared that he squatted on the ground with his head in his hands.

Faced with an irresistible existence, the young sword master of the Cangshan Sword Sect showed his cowardly side.

Qin Lang glanced at Wang Bufan and didn't take it seriously.

He seems to be a fool and won't answer any questions.

If he doesn't say anything when asked how much spirit stones it costs, then it means he's giving it away for free.

This was not something Qin Lang stole; he took it.

"See if that crazy woman is still here. Run away while she's away! Throw this bell into the auction house and see if you can get 10 million spirit stones for it!"

With this thought in mind, Qin Lang walked in the alley and stuck his head outside.

He looked towards the gate of the Alchemy Hall.

At this time, Lu Chuxue was chatting with the alchemist who was about to enter the alchemy hall.

“Good opportunity!”

Qin Lang was delighted.

While Lu Chuxue wasn't noticing, he quickly ran outside.

His destination was the auction house in Guanlan City.

“I’m here to sell things!”

Rushing into the auction house, Qin Lang began to speak.

When Hao Youqian saw Qin Lang, he was immediately frightened.

"Why are you here again..."

He felt a little uncomfortable. If he wanted the spirit stones, couldn't he just ask directly?

What are you trying to sell?

Although he felt helpless, he still had to be respectful when facing Qin Lang, for fear that Qin Lang would get angry and overturn the entire auction house.

"My God, is there anything I can help you with?"

Hao Youqian forced a professional smile and asked Qin Lang.

"This bell is similar to the palm leaf fan. See how much it can fetch here."

Qin Lang casually took out the soul-catching bell and placed it on the counter.

“Similar to a palm leaf fan?”

Hao Youqian had an idea.

He was able to have his current status thanks to that palm-leaf fan.

If it was just like a palm-leaf fan, then it would be acceptable.

As long as it’s not a super existence like cucumber.

Although I had the intention to accept the bell.

But he was just a manager after all, and since the matter involved Qin Lang, he still needed to ask the boss first.

"Wait a moment, Immortal. I'll go ask the boss."

Hao Youqian nodded and bowed towards Qin Lang.

Tan Lang nodded.

Under his gaze, Hao Youqian ran to the upper floor.

After just a few dozen breaths, he ran back panting.

"Immortal, the boss agreed!"

Hao Youqian quickly reported to Qin Lang.

At this moment, he was excited.

As long as the bells can be sold well, his life will be one step closer to the peak!

"Okay, then I'll give this bell to you. Just let me know when it's sold!"

Qin Lang nodded, turned around and left the auction house.

The incident with the bell was just a small episode for Qin Lang.

Although he was the one who stole the bell...oh no, he took it.

But it's not a big problem.

Next time you see that ugly guy, just give him half of the spirit stones.

Thinking that he would soon have tens of millions of spirit stones again, his mood became cheerful.

With cheerful steps, he walked towards the Locking Immortal Gate.

In an alley not far from the Alchemy Hall.

Wang Bufan was alone in the alley, curled up in a ball and shivering.

One side.

The shadowy figure slowly emerged from the shadows on the ground.

He just came back from Locking Immortal Gate.

Although he did not investigate further, he did not sense any demonic energy around the Locking Immortal Gate.

If that person really is hiding in the Locking Immortal Gate, the Locking Immortal Gate should not be able to conceal his evil aura.

The somewhat disappointed shadow, sensing Wang Bufan's presence, appeared in the alley.

Looking at the shivering Wang Bufan, Shadow felt confused.

“Extraordinary.”

He called out softly.

Hearing Shadow's voice, Wang Bufan, who was curled up in a ball, stopped shaking.

He suddenly raised his head and looked at the shadow beside him.

"Uncle Shadow... woo woo woo..."

Wang Bufan, a grown man, just started crying in front of Shadow.

He was not at all as arrogant as he was in front of Jiang Li.

Shadow's face was shrouded in darkness, and his expression could not be seen.

He raised his hand slightly and lifted up Wang Bufan who was sitting on the ground.

Wang Bufan told everything that happened after he met Qin Lang.

"You mean, he broke your sword with his bare hands, and he was immune to the Soul Bell, so he took the Soul Bell from you?"

Shadow's voice was slightly shocked.

Even though Wang Bufan had been living with Shadow for hundreds of years, it was the first time he heard Shadow's voice of shock.

"Yes..." Wang Bufan trembled as he recalled the previous scene. He pointed at the broken sword blade on the ground not far away and said:

"Uncle Shadow, look over there, the Broken Blade is right there..."

Shadow looked in the direction Wang Bufan pointed.

Sure enough, the broken blade of the mid-grade spiritual sword was scattered all over the ground.

The irregular crack really looked like it was broken by bare hands.

"You said that person only looks like he is at the Purple Mansion Realm?"

Shadow's words had just fallen.

Before Wang Bufan could reply, Lu Chuxue ran over to the entrance of the alley.

"Are you guys done fighting?"

Lu Chuxue leaned over.

But before she could see clearly what was happening in the alley, her eyes went dark and she passed out.

"Uncle Shadow, that person looks like he is at the Purple Mansion Realm, and..."

Wang Bufan pointed at the unconscious Lu Chuxue.

"Can I take her with me?"

With Shadow by his side, Wang Bufan once again turned into the arrogant and domineering Lord of Cangshan Sword.

"No, the elders of the Alchemy Hall headquarters are in Guanlan Alchemy Hall."

Shadow said in a deep voice.

Seeing that Shadow refused, Wang Bufan did not force it.

He knew that Shadow was his only trump card.

Without Shadow, he is just an ant.

As for the magic weapon...

Is the magic weapon useful?

He got angry when he thought of the magic weapon.

"Let's find a place to rest first. I'll see if I can find that person and retrieve the bell."

The Soul-Catching Bell is a top-grade spiritual weapon.

Top-grade spiritual weapons are so precious. Even he only has one chain that is a top-grade spiritual weapon.

"good!"

Wang Bufan nodded.

Now he has to stay in his room obediently.

He definitely won't run around unless Shadow is around!

"Um."

He responded casually.

Shadow waved his hand, and he and Wang Bufan disappeared from the alley.

After settling Wang Bufan down.

Shadow's figure soon appeared outside Guanlan City.

His figure was hidden in the shadow of a big tree outside the city, with only his head exposed above the ground.

No one noticed that the darkness on Shadow's face slowly faded away.

His face is covered with scars, which is very creepy.

The blood-red eyes gazed into the distance.

"I am Shadow... The Demon Emperor. It's been a thousand years... a full thousand years since I last saw you. Where on earth are you?"

A murmur came from Shadow's mouth.

If there was anyone who participated in the battle to encircle and suppress the July Demon Lord a thousand years ago, he would know.

This person is none other than the notorious Shadow Demon Emperor!
