Unexpected conflicts

"It's my grandmother's birthday in a few months, and I want to buy some gifts to give to my filial piety, but there are really no good things in this poor and remote place." The girl looked disappointed.

"There will be an auction tomorrow, maybe some treasures will appear at that time, and if Miss takes a fancy to it, we will auction it." The old man behind the girl said with a smile.

"Perhaps, but don't get your hopes up either."

Obviously, the girl didn't have much interest in tomorrow's auction at all, and didn't think that there would be any great treasures tomorrow.

Shi Jiu frowned, tomorrow's auction will be the grandest in recent years, not only many big forces in Longnan County will participate, but also many big forces and sects in the nearby counties will also participate, when he was drinking tea in the teahouse before, he saw a lot of sect forces in other counties.

And the protagonist of this auction is the Heaven and Earth Treasure - the essence of the spirit of saliva, and almost all the forces are coming to it. Although ordinary people may not know what treasures are in tomorrow's auction, anyone who is invited to participate in this auction must know that the treasure at the bottom of tomorrow's box is the essence of the spirit of saliva, and listening to the conversation between the girl and the old man, it is obvious that they will also participate tomorrow, and they must also know about the essence of the spirit of saliva, but the girl still thinks that there will be no treasures, which makes Shi Jiu deeply puzzled and surprised.

"Let's go, Uncle Jiu, there's nothing good here, let's go somewhere else." After speaking, the girl was the first to walk out of the shop and left without looking back, followed by the old man behind her.

Shi Jiu turned his head and looked in the direction where the two had disappeared, his guarded body relaxed, but he was very surprised and curious in his heart.

A pair of weird grandfathers and granddaughters, but the background seems to be very unusual. The girl's cultivation is average, it should be about the same as Shi Jiu, in the Qi Realm, but the old man behind her is very special, although the words are very amiable, but Shi Jiu is cautious, because the old man gives him a very unusual feeling, it is a special sense of danger, and this sense of danger is even more than the feeling given to him by Dong Tianling, the chief helmsman of the Shuntian Dart Bureau, and this sense of danger is hidden very deeply, if it were not for Shi Jiu's cultivation of the Northern Darkness Breathing Method, his quality in all aspects has been greatly improved, Divine Consciousness and Divine Sense can be compared to those at the peak of the Spiritual Realm, so they can detect a trace of it, and other cultivators don't feel it at all.

When the girl and the old man were watching casually in the shop before, Shi Jiu never turned to look at each other, because he had already sensed the old man's sense of danger, and it was not until the other party had completely left that he turned around and looked in the direction of the other party's departure.

"It seems that the disciple of a big force is probably going to tomorrow's auction. It seems that the girl's status is very high, and the strength of the person who follows and protects her is the pinnacle of the realm...... Alas, tomorrow's auction is bound to be a battle of dragons and tigers...... The essence of the saliva is probably suspended. Shi Jiu sighed silently in his heart.

Although he had expected it, he was really surprised that he could meet an old man at the peak of his spirit when he walked around. You must know that on weekdays, not to mention the peak of the spirit realm, even the powerhouses of the central realm are difficult to see, and it can only be said that the attraction of the essence of the spirit is too great.

At this moment, Shi Jiu felt that the probability of being able to bid for a piece of the essence of the spirit was much lower, and he was very helpless in his heart.

At this time, the old man who was following the girl in front of him was a little curious.

"A little guy in the realm of spirit, seems to sense a trace of my breath...... The tense body with a solemn expression...... Interesting. The old man laughed unconsciously.

"Uncle Jiu, what are you laughing at?" Hearing the laughter of the old man behind her, the girl in front of her wondered.

"It's nothing, I just think the little guy I just saw in the shop is interesting." The old man whispered.

"Oh? The little guy who can make Jiu Bo say interesting must have something special. The girl was also interested: "Uncle Jiu, what is it about that guy that makes you feel interesting?" ”

"Miss, the young man in the shop seems to have sensed a hint of my breath, and his whole body is tense, as if he were facing a great enemy, and he stands there like a statue, so that I feel amused." The old man didn't hide it, and said it directly.

"Huh? Just now in the shop, there was a young man standing there with his back to us, I felt that his cultivation was similar to mine, and he could even detect a trace of your breath, Jiubo? You're a soul powerhouse, how did that guy do it? Does he have the treasure to probe and search? The girl was skeptical.

"I don't know, so it feels interesting." The old man was still smiling.

"Forget it, in this poor and remote place, it is impossible for a genius to amaze the Youlong Continent, let's go around other places." The girl immediately lost interest, changed directions and continued to walk forward, while the old man behind her did not leave an inch.

Shi Jiu couldn't hear the conversation between the girl and the old man, and if he could hear it, Shi Jiu would definitely be shocked by the identity of the old man.

A soul realm level powerhouse, that is not an existence that can be seen and seen, even if Shi Jiu met the Great Red Sword Emperor, although he is also a soul realm powerhouse, but the other party is not alive after all, just a wisp of obsession, and in a living soul realm level powerhouse, can it not be shocking? It is definitely the top existence in Longnan County, and if the old man is willing, it will be no problem to rule the entire Longnan County.

And now this soul-level old man is willing to accompany a girl and protect him closely, so this girl's background is really terrifying.

It's just that Shi Jiu didn't know all this, and he also walked out of the shop at this time without buying any of the Immortal Cores.

First, the level of the underworld core sold in this shop is not high, and the best one is only a fourth-level underworld core, and second, Shi Jiu does not lack treasures containing energy such as the underworld core, there are a lot of Yu Xinzhu alone, in addition, he has some crystals, and the crystals and Yu Xinzhu have no side effects when absorbed, which is much better than the underworld core.

After shopping for a while, Shi Jiu felt that there was nothing interesting and prepared to go back to Fengbaozhai.

At this time, many people from the sect with weapons in front of them rushed towards the south.

Shi Jiu was curious, and casually stopped a person who was about to go.

"Fellow Daoist, what's wrong with you? All running south? Did something happen? Shi Jiu asked very politely.

"Outside the city gate, the two gangs of the Ghost Fire Sect and the Axe Gang fought, and everyone went to see it." After speaking, the person who was stopped by Shi Jiu immediately rushed forward.

"Ghost Fire Sect? The Axe Gang? A battle between the two sides? Shi Jiu was curious, and then walked towards the south gate with everyone.

A quarter of an hour later, Shi Jiu followed everyone to the south gate, where a large number of people were already gathered. Shi Jiu stood on the periphery of the crowd, and could faintly see two groups of people facing each other at the front, among which the group of people on the left side was a tall young man, wearing a gold silk and black robe, with his hands behind his back, and he was looking at the opposite side with a smug face, but his face was pale, and there were two points of blood red in his eyes, if he saw it at night, he would probably be frightened by the other party.

"People from the Ghost Fire Sect?" Shi Jiu subconsciously recognized it, and there was no way to think of it at once with these blood-red eyes like ghost fire.

The group of people on the opposite side was each holding an axe, obviously this was a member of the Axe Gang, and the leader was a middle-aged man, at this time a wound on his right arm was clearly visible, and he was constantly bleeding.

Shi Jiu inquired a little and knew a general reason.

It turned out that early this morning, there were fishermen in the south of the city thirty miles away in the Tonglin Lake salvaged a dagger inlaid with various gems, and then was seen by the passing Axe Gang and a group of people, to buy, after identification confirmed that the dagger was a slightly damaged treasure, but for some reason the news leaked out, was known by the people of the Ghost Fire Sect, and then the Ghost Fire Master led people to block the way of the Axe Gang and his party, and then a big battle, the Axe Gang was defeated, and the middle-aged man in the lead was also injured.

Just now, the secret treasure dagger was also snatched by the people of the Ghost Fire Sect.

Shi Jiu was at the back of the crowd and looked at the two groups of people in front of him.

The young man with a pale face and blood-red eyes should be Li Zhen, the young sect master of the Ghost Fire Sect, with a smug face, and a dagger inlaid with gems in his right hand, under the light, the dagger emitted a shining cold light.

"This dagger is very suitable for me, don't be angry with the members of the Axe Gang, the Youlong Continent has always been the weak and the strong, and those who can treasure can get it, if you want to blame it, blame your Axe Gang for not being as good as others, haha!" The Young Sect Master of the Ghost Fire Sect, Li Zhen, smiled proudly.

"Humph! Today, my Axe Gang has confessed, but you Ghost Fire Sect is not very proud, and you may not be able to win the final treasure at tomorrow's auction! The bleeding middle-aged man of the Axe Gang said resentfully.

"This doesn't bother you Axe Gang to worry, that spiritual saliva true essence my Ghost Fire Sect is determined to win! Why aren't you leaving? Do you want us to send you away? "Ghost Fire Sect Li Zhen didn't care about the other party's words, but was full of confidence.

"Let's go!" The middle-aged man of the Axe Gang had no choice but to reluctantly flee with the group behind him.

At this time, Shi Jiu was a little surprised in his heart, but it was not because of the strength of the Ghost Fire Sect or the helplessness of the Axe Gang to retreat, but because he saw several groups surrounded by people in the crowd and on the South City Gate Tower, among which there were several people that Shi Jiu knew, such as Dong Hu of the Shuntian Dart Bureau not far away, Liu Ruyi of the Water Heaven Pavilion, and some other young people whose strength was not weaker than them.

There is no doubt that these people are the descendants of those powerful forces in Longnan County and its nearby counties, and they represent the strongest column of the younger generation today.

Obviously, they all followed their elders to Tonglin City to participate in tomorrow's auction.

After the surprise, Shi Jiu's heart faintly had an inexplicable impulse, and this impulse made Shi Jiu's eyes have a trace of expectation.

"I really want to fight these people!" Shi Jiu had this idea in his heart, but he was quickly suppressed by him again.

With the departure of the Axe Gang, the crowd of onlookers gradually dispersed, and just as Shi Jiu was about to leave, the corner of his eye suddenly twitched.

"That's the girl and the old man from before, and they've come to see the fun." Shi Jiu thought in his heart.

The two of them also left quickly, and Shi Jiu also withdrew his gaze, and then walked towards Feng Bao Zhai.
