Chapter 653: Fairy Music Palace, Fairy Tianyin

The atmosphere was silent.

Everyone looked at Chen Xuan without saying a word.

After a long time, a strong man broke the tranquility of the moment.

"Are there any fellow Taoists who would like to raise the price? Ten million high-grade spirit stones, is there a higher price?"

Even though the sturdy man was praising the Starlight Shield to the sky, still no one was bidding against Chen Xuan.

Helplessly, the strong man could only announce the result in public.

"Congratulations, fellow Daoist! You have won the Starlight Shield for 10 million high-grade spirit stones!"

Ten million high-quality spirit stones!

Converted into medium-grade spirit stones, there are as many as 10 billion!

This is not a small amount for Chen Xuan.

He only had to wait until he had collected 80 million high-grade spirit stones and used a lot of his own miscellaneous work to pay for 20 million high-grade spirit stones before he could successfully get the Starlight Shield in his hands.

"Ten million high-quality spirit stones to buy a defensive spiritual treasure. This price is quite reasonable."

Chen Xuan smiled with satisfaction.

After making sure there was no problem with the Starlight Shield, he put it directly into the storage bag.

Next, the auction will continue.

However, Chen Xuan had no intention of continuing to attack.

Firstly, he already had the things he urgently needed, and secondly, Chen Xuan clearly felt that there was something wrong with the items being auctioned in this auction house.

If he buys too much, it will definitely cause unnecessary trouble.

After thinking it over, Chen Xuan finally stopped.

After waiting for more than an hour, it was finally the turn of the finale item.

What surprised Chen Xuan was that the finale was actually a torn picture.

Chen Xuan was not very clear about the specific function of this incomplete map.

However, many cultivators who came on behalf of their respective families were bidding frantically.

In the end, this incomplete map was taken away by someone for 30 million high-quality spirit stones.

The auction was over and Chen Xuan had no intention of staying.

Even though he is now a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, Chen Xuan still dares not be careless.

After leaving the underground auction house, he wandered around Qingyun Market seemingly casually.

But his mind was paying close attention to everything behind him.

After a moment, for some unknown reason, Chen Xuan suddenly smiled strangely.

Soon, he came to a remote alley after many twists and turns.

"Daoyou, are you going to come out by yourself, or do you want me to invite you out?"

Chen Xuan looked extremely indifferent.

His eyes were fixed on the entrance of the deserted alley.

After a moment, a burst of loud laughter suddenly rang out from the entrance of the alley.

"Haha, I didn't expect that my whereabouts would be discovered by you so quickly. I'm so sorry!"

The visitor was an old man.

Although Chen Xuan had never seen this person, he understood instantly after hearing the old man's voice.

This old man turned out to be the old man in the early Nascent Soul stage who had participated in the bidding for the Liuhe Formation with him.

"Fellow Daoist, you have followed me all the way. What can I do for you?"

Chen Xuan raised his eyebrows, and the spiritual power in his body was already running rapidly.

Seeing this, I was ready to take action.

The old man, on the other hand, looked at Chen Xuan and laughed.

"Don't misunderstand me, I have no ill intentions!"

"Oh?"

Chen Xuan frowned, still not quite believing what the old man said.

The world of immortal cultivators is very dangerous.

Chen Xuan has been struggling in the world of immortal cultivators for so many years, relying on his caution.

The old man said that he had no ill will towards Chen Xuan, but that didn’t mean he really had no ill will towards Chen Xuan.

"You have been following me secretly all the way. I wonder what you want to do?"

Chen Xuan smiled coldly.

The spiritual power in the body is also slowly activated at this moment.

Even the ancient sword that could subdue dragons was ready to strike at any time.

"Haha, fellow Daoist, it's a misunderstanding. It's really a misunderstanding!"

The old man explained again and again.

Seeing that Chen Xuan didn't believe it, he said with a serious expression: "Daoyou, you should have heard about what happened in Qingyunfang City recently, right?"

"There are many cultivators in Qingyun Market, and countless things have happened. How do I know which one you are talking about?" Chen Xuan said coldly.

The old man was stunned.

He looked at Chen Xuan carefully for a long time. Seeing that Chen Xuan did not seem to be lying, he smiled and said, "It seems that I really misunderstood you. If so, please feel free to do as you please!"

After the old man finished speaking, he made way for them.

Chen Xuan used his divine sense to scan the area carefully and confirmed that there were no other cultivators except the old man.

And when there was no other means of attack in the alley, it turned into a stream of light and disappeared.

Just a cup of tea after Chen Xuan left, two streams of light suddenly shot out from a distance.

Soon appeared beside the old man.

“Fellow Daoist Wan, why did you let that guy go just now? Even though he is a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, if the three of us join forces, we may have a chance to keep him.”

The person who spoke was a young woman.

The powerful aura of the early Nascent Soul stage emanated from her continuously.

Even though the old man's aura was obviously stronger than hers, the woman still maintained an extremely cold and arrogant attitude.

When the old man saw this, instead of hiding anything, he smiled gently.

"What the Saint said does make some sense. However, I am old and I don't want to continue fighting with others."

The old man smiled faintly.

Soon, he looked in the direction where Chen Xuan left, and said, "Saintess, you have been releasing a large number of natural treasures for sale in our Cangwu grassland these days. Isn't it to attract that guy? I understand your feelings. But, this fellow Taoist in front of you is not the person you are looking for."

"Really? Since Fellow Daoist Wan said so, it seems that I have wronged the tour guide."

The young woman said coldly.

After a pause, she continued, "In that case, I will not disturb you any more. Goodbye!"

After saying this, the young woman, along with another cultivator in the early Nascent Soul stage, turned into a streak of light and quickly disappeared.

Seeing this, the old man did not stay where he was and soon disappeared.

However, they didn’t know that long after the three of them left, an illusory figure quickly jumped out from under the ground.

Soon, it shot towards the direction Chen Xuan left.

In Qingyunfang Market, in a bustling teahouse.

Chen Xuan, who was in disguise, found a place to sit down casually.

After ordering a pot of Qingluo tea, Chen Xuan did not drink it.

Just sit quietly by the window, looking at the scenery outside.

But his mind quietly dispersed at this moment, and he listened closely to the idle chatter of the immortal cultivators in the teahouse.

Although, every private room in the teahouse is equipped with anti-peeping formations.

It is also difficult for ordinary cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage to eavesdrop on the conversations of the cultivators in the box.

But Chen Xuan's spiritual power is far beyond that of ordinary Nascent Soul early stage cultivators.

It was easy to hear their conversation clearly.

"Fellow Daoist, have you heard? Recently, many immortal cultivators from Zhongzhou have suddenly appeared in Qingyun Market. The leader is actually the Saintess of Xianle Palace, Fairy Tianyin!"

"Haha, I must have heard about this. Fairy Tianyin is young, but she is already a powerful Yuanying early stage, and her appearance is unparalleled in the world. She is the next Palace Master of Xianle Palace. Although she acted secretly this time, the news has already been widely spread."

"I have also heard about this. It is said that Fairy Tianyin came here because of a sect annihilation tragedy. As far as I know, a small sect under the Xianle Palace was uprooted overnight. All the treasures in the sect were also looted. Fairy Tianyin, of course, came here to track down the murderer."

"That makes sense. However, a cultivator who can easily kill an entire sect is definitely not an ordinary person. His realm is at least the Nascent Soul stage. But how could such a powerful cultivator be easily found by Fairy Tianyin?"

……

When Chen Xuan heard this, he couldn't help but frown.

"No wonder the items auctioned in that underground auction house are so good. If I'm not mistaken, it should be a big deal from the Fairy Palace, right?"

Chen Xuan muttered secretly.

Soon, he saw a shadow appear in front of him.

Chen Xuan calmly put away the afterimage, then turned into a stream of light and disappeared quickly.

After waiting for only an hour, Chen Xuan found a secluded place and released the afterimage.

"Fox, tell me in detail, what did those people say after I left?" Chen Xuan asked.

Not long ago, Chen Xuan left alone.

But before leaving, Chen Xuan secretly kept Fox behind to monitor the old man's every move for him.

Chen Xuan also wanted to know why the old man was following him for no apparent reason.

"Reporting to the master, after you left, someone really came to look for that old guy."

Fox explained in detail what she knew.

After listening to this, Chen Xuan frowned.

"It turned out to be the Saintess of the Xianle Palace in Zhongzhou? However, Fairy Tianyin actually traveled thousands of miles to Qingyun Market to hunt down the murderer."

"It seems that the guy who wiped out the entire small sect must have a lot of good things on him."

When Fox heard this, a strange look flashed in her beautiful eyes.

"Master, are you going to intervene in this matter too? If so, Fox will go out and get the news!"

"Haha, Fox, why are you so anxious? We have been targeted by Fairy Tianyin now. Given the temperament of these major sects in Zhongzhou, they will certainly not give up. I'm afraid it won't be long before someone comes knocking on our door."

Chen Xuan smiled indifferently.

When he was about to leave with Fox, two figures suddenly shot out from a distance.

When Fox saw this, a strange look flashed in her beautiful eyes.

However, Chen Xuan stared at the person who came with a calm look.

"Haha, if I'm not mistaken, the fairy is the Tianyin Fairy from the Xianle Palace, right? What, do you really think of me as a murderer?" Chen Xuan sneered repeatedly.

When Fairy Tianyin saw this, a hint of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes.

But she didn't act rashly.

"Fellow Daoist, since you know my identity, you should also know why I am here, right?"

"Haha, the power of your Xianle Palace is far away in Zhongzhou. But this is Qingyunfang City where Cangwu Grassland is located. Fairy wants to threaten me here, do you really think I will give in?"

Chen Xuan continued to sneer.

After a pause, a fierce look flashed in his eyes.

"Fairy, let's not talk about the fact that I have nothing to do with the person you are looking for. Even if I do, do you still intend to fight me here?"
