Chapter 17: Secretly Jealous
Out of the Tianbao Auction House, Qi Tian and his party walked back, and happened to be on the same road as the handsome male cultivator and the princess, so they led Li Lin and the others to take the lead in greeting him, and saluted with his fists: "In Qi Tian, thank you for your friendship during the auction." ”
"Hehe, you're welcome, just take advantage of the situation, Murong is invincible in Xia, and then pointed to the equally handsome male cultivator beside him, this is Murong Jie, the younger brother of the lower clan. The handsome male cultivator also cupped his fists and saluted back.
Qi Tian also introduced Li Lin and the others to Murong Invincible, and when everyone was talking to each other, the princess also led a group of people over, and said with a slight blessing: "This palace Ye dances lightly, I have seen all the Taoist friends." Then he introduced more than a dozen brightly dressed male and female monks beside him to Qi Tian and the others. Qi Tian and the others also enthusiastically introduced and talked to each other, and learned that Ye Qingwu was originally the princess of the Chiba Dynasty in the Eastern Regions, the Eastern Regions were mainly ruled by the power structure of the kingdom, the dynasty, and the empire, and more than ten people around him were also the sons of the princes of the Chiba Dynasty and the heirs of the subordinate kingdoms, and the Chiba Dynasty was also considered a medium force in the Eastern Regions, and there were empires above, and more than a dozen kingdoms were governed below. Murong Invincible is a native monk in the Central Domain, and the Murong family in the Central Domain is only a middle-level and lower-class force, but because the Central Domain is a holy land for cultivating immortals, and the people are outstanding, the Murong family is in charge of the ancestor of the Tribulation Period, which is equivalent to the middle force in the Eastern Regions and the top forces in the Southern Regions. Qi Tian's heart was gloomy, compared to them, his family had become an inferior force. After the more than a dozen people beside Ye Qingwu heard Qi Tian's self-report, most of them flashed with vague contempt in their eyes, and even more, one of them, a tall and thin male cultivator in the early stage of foundation building, Jiang Jinshan, the son of the general of the Chiba Dynasty, said contemptuously: "Brother Qi, looking at your performance at the auction, Jiang thought that you were the pride of heaven of a superior force, but I didn't expect that you were a mediocre talent from a low-class family. ”
Qi Tian's original enthusiasm was extinguished by Jiang Jinshan's ridicule, he turned his face and looked at Jiang Jinshan with a sneer, he also had a sense of anger in his heart, and just wanted to refute, Ye Qingwu said with a cold face at this time: "Jiang Jinshan, Brother Qi is arguing with me now, you dare to intervene, immediately apologize to Brother Qi, or get out of me." After speaking, he glared at Jiang Jinshan with an angry face. Qi Tian didn't expect Princess Ye to be so domineering, and he also stood up for himself who he had just met, and saw Ye Qingwu for his own actions, he was greatly appreciated and grateful. However, he was not modest, waiting for Jiang Jinshan to apologize, looking at Jiang Jinshan with a smile, Qi Tian is also an arrogant person, and he was insulted by a waste like Jiang Jinshan who was only in the early stage of foundation building at the age of twenty, if it weren't for Ye Qingwu's face, he would have taught him a lesson. Jiang Jinshan's original smug expression immediately collapsed, and he secretly scolded himself in his heart, and was also jealous of Qi Tian's affection for the princess, seeing Qi Tian's smile Mimi, he had an urge to vomit blood, but as a courtier, he didn't dare to disobey the princess's words, and bent down to salute Qi Tian with a purple face, and said reluctantly: "Brother Qi has a lot, I was talking cheap just now, please forgive me." Qi Tian was angry in his heart, so he didn't bother with him, and when he spit out the word 'okay' in his mouth, he stopped paying attention to him and chatted with Ye Qingwu. Jiang Jinshan left first after an embarrassing farewell, but no one saw the resentful look on his face when he left. After chatting for a while, Qi Tian and other talents separated, and met again when the trial was met.
Qi Tian returned to his residence, said goodbye to Yu Linglong, Leng Rushuang and others, and first came to Grandpa's retreat secret room, and reported on today's auction, Great Ancestor Qi Potian listened to Qi Tian's report, the corners of his mouth did not show a wry smile, and said with emotion: "The auctions of such low-level monks have sold tens of millions of spirit stone treasures, and it seems that the background of the juniors participating in this trial is extraordinary." ”
Qi Tian thought the same in his heart, after all, this is one of the thousands of small cities in the Ten Thousand Immortal City, there will be auctions in other cities, and there will also be treasures worth tens of millions, or even higher. Qi Tian couldn't help but feel that the water in the Immortal Cultivation Realm was too deep, and he was only an insignificant drop of water in it. Qi Tian realized his insignificance, but not only did he not flinch, but he also strengthened his Dao heart.
As he spoke, the Great Ancestor took out a storage bag from the inner world and threw it to Qi Tiandao: " There are five million spirit stones here, you can use them, but the road to cultivating immortals is bumpy, and grandpa can help you with almost that, a better magic weapon is not given to you, it is for you to fight for it yourself, in fact, this is also a kind of experience, so that you can see the outside world more, don't be a frog at the bottom of the well, and when you enter the sect in the future, grandpa Tai will have to go back to the family, all the cultivation resources have to be earned by yourself, and you can only rely on yourself to resolve the life and death crisis, so, for the sake of the family, and for the sake of your mother, you must be cautious in every step of your way, and don't trust othersThe Great Ancestor spoke earnestly to Qi Tiandun's teachings, and Qi Tian also listened carefully on the side.
At this time, Bai Mei Lao Dao also said similar words to Li Lin and the other four in his quiet room. The elders of the Murong Invincible family also preached to the Murong brothers according to the situation of this auction, and it was rare that Qi Tian was mentioned, so that his juniors could get as close as possible to this kind of junior with strong potential. Ye Qingwu was also listening to the teachings in the imperial uncle's retreat secret room, and the elders also mentioned that they wanted to be friendly with Qi Tian. And in an ordinary quiet room not far from the next door, Jiang Jinshan was smug and sinister with a low grin, muttering in his mouth: "Qi Tian, Ye Qingwu, you just wait for my revenge." ”
It turned out that after Jiang Jinshan returned to his quiet room in anger, his mind was full of thoughts of revenge against Qi Tian and Ye Qingwu, and finally gritted his teeth and sent a message to a mysterious person regardless of the consequences. And the mysterious man is actually the prince of the Xuanyu Dynasty in the Eastern Regions, and he is also one of the people who participated in the trial this time, but he is stationed in other cities, the Xuanyu Dynasty and the Chiba Dynasty are next to each other, and there have been constant disputes, and there are crusades against each other, and the Jinshan father and son have always been the objects that the other party wants to secretly woo, but they have not succeeded, but they did not expect that because of Qi Tian, they gave the prince of the Xuanyu Dynasty, Xuan Mingxian such a good opportunity.
Xuan Mingxian has just turned twenty years old, Zhang Deyushu is in the wind, suave, but he is ruthless and cunning, with thin lips, he is a ruthless and unrighteous person, the key is that his cultivation talent is extremely high, and he is now in the middle of Jindan, and he is a person who has cultivated to stand at the top of the pyramid among the trial people. Xuan Mingxian unexpectedly received Jiang Jinshan's message, and his heart was full of joy, thinking that the fish had finally taken the bait, and after Jiang Jinshan got the treasures that Qi Tian auctioned at the auction and Qi Tian's age and background, he laughed out loud and said happily: "If you don't have the strength to dare to compete for treasures in front of everyone, don't you know that you are guilty?" After saying that, he sent someone down to make arrangements. It is said that Qi Tian because of his strong divine sense, people below the Jindan stage can't see his cultivation, but from the age, it can also be judged that Qi Tian's cultivation will not be high, although Qi Tian is now strong in mana, invincible in the foundation building period, but it is really not necessarily the opponent of the Jindan period monks, if he encounters Xuan Mingxian in the middle of the Jindan stage too early in the trial, it will also be an unbearable disaster for Qi Tian.
Early the next morning, Qi Tian and Li Lin and the others ended their overnight cultivation early, simply freshened up, and gathered together led by Dazu and Baimei Dao Chang to the teleportation array in the city, and rushed to the place of trial, the place where the trialists gathered was held in the center of the Ten Thousand Immortals Holy City, the center of the Ten Thousand Immortals Holy City was built on a not very high, but quite broad mountain range, there are millions of miles wide in both vertical and horizontal directions, and on the square with a radius of a hundred miles on the mountainside, there are no less than a million monks gathered at this time, and ninety percent of them are the young juniors who participated in the trial, and Qi Tian and his party are also among them, but now they are all waiting cross-legged in front of the square, nearly a million trialists, there are thousands of rows horizontally and vertically, It is also a huge scene, Dazu and other elders are at the edge of the square and their acquaintances get together to chat, Dazu is also talking with a palace beauty under the introduction of Baimei Lao Dao.
