If someone looks down from a high altitude at Tiandou City, they will find that many people are converging in the same direction.
Today is the day when the Soul Palace will auction off elixirs again. Any soul master with some wealth would like to go to the Tiandou City auction house to take a look.
Of course, most of them are not qualified to enter, but this does not prevent them from being keen to find out what kind of elixirs will be auctioned this time.
"Hey, what grade of elixirs will the Soul Palace auction this time?"
"The lowest is probably the fifth grade, right? You can buy a fourth-grade pill straight away. Maybe even a seventh-grade pill will show up in this auction."
"A seventh-grade elixir, it can increase the soul power of a Soul Sage. For someone like me who might not even reach the level of a Soul King, forget it."
"If it were in the past, you would be right, but if you can take the elixirs from the Soul Palace, you could become a Soul Douluo, not to mention a Soul Sage."
"I want it too, but I'm not a disciple of a big sect, so how can I afford it?"
Many people gathered outside the auction hall, and the auction hall was already full, and everyone was looking forward to the start of the auction.
In the private room on the second floor, Xiao Mu had been here for a while. Opposite him, Qian Renxue said:
"Palace Master, I have lived up to your trust and have successfully persuaded Xue Ye to deploy troops against the Xing Luo Empire. I am now gradually mobilizing troops and aiming to catch the Xing Luo Empire off guard."
"Yeah, good job."
As he spoke, Xiao Mu threw a bottle of pills to Qian Renxue.
"Here's your reward."
"Thank you, Lord."
Qian Renxue's eyes lit up. She knew what was in the pill bottle, and that was why she was so excited.
When the pill bottle was opened, a soul-breaking pill surrounded by three cloud patterns shook slightly.
Three stripes? Qian Renxue was even more surprised.
Although Xiao Mu promised her that if she completed the task successfully, he would reward her with a sixth-grade Soul-Breaking Pill, she did not expect to get the third pattern.
She was confident that after taking this Soul-Breaking Pill, there was a great possibility that she would directly break through to the Soul Saint level.
"Who will lead the army that will attack the Xingluo Empire?"
Qian Renxue's inner excitement had not yet subsided when she heard Xiao Mu ask.
"It's me. Xue Ye sent me to lead the army to attack the Xingluo Empire."
It was actually very difficult for Xue Ye to make this decision. He both disliked and feared Xue Qinghe. Letting him command the army would undoubtedly allow Xue Qinghe to control the military power.
But he was even more worried about handing it over to other people.
In addition, Xue Qinghe had a very good relationship with the Soul Palace, and he didn't care whether he had military power or not when he wanted to usurp the throne, so Xue Ye simply did him a favor.
The apparent strength of the Xingluo Empire is even stronger than that of the Tiandou Empire. Without the help of the Soul Palace, Xue Ye is worried that the war will be at risk of failure.
Since the Crown Prince has a good relationship with the Soul Palace, let him command the army, which will make it easier to ask the Soul Palace for help.
"Oh? Looks like you're one step closer to becoming the Emperor of Tendou."
Qian Renxue lowered her eyebrows and smiled, "Even if Renxue becomes the Emperor of Tiandou, it is only to better help the Palace Master do things."
"It's good that you have this intention. When you break through, you can go to the Soul Palace to absorb the soul ring."
"Yes, thank you, Master."
Qian Renxue knew that the Soul Palace's Soul-Imparting Tower could help soul masters obtain soul rings, but she had never experienced it herself. She was also very curious about how to obtain soul rings without a soul beast.
"The auction is about to begin. Once you successfully destroy the Xingluo Empire, this Palace Master will reward you."
"Yes, Renxue will definitely live up to the Palace Master's trust."
Qian Renxue bowed her head and respectfully saw Xiao Mu off.
She felt very pressured when facing Xiao Mu. She and Bibi Dong dared to argue face to face, but in front of Xiao Mu, she didn't even dare to breathe too quickly.
However, she really liked dealing with Xiao Mu. Although there were always tasks assigned to her every time they met, she also never missed out on benefits.
On the contrary, she had been lurking in the Tiandou Empire for the Spirit Hall at a young age, and Bibi Dong had never even said a good word to her.
Sometimes she wished she could borrow troops from the Palace Master, fight back to the Spirit Palace, and seize the throne.
Qian Renxue shook her head and left the box.
Qian Renxue did not plan to attend the auction. The elixir was already in her hands, and she had to go back to refine it as soon as possible. After that, she would be busy preparing military supplies and preparing to lead the army to war.
"Young Master."
Thorny Porpoise Douluo and Snake Lance Douluo have been quite nervous these days. If it weren't for Qian Renxue's request, they wouldn't want to leave Qian Renxue's side for a moment and would protect her at all times.
In their opinion, since Yue Guan never returned, there was a high possibility that he had met with an accident.
Chrysanthemum Douluo knew Qian Renxue's identity. Although they felt that it was unlikely that Chrysanthemum Douluo would reveal the matter, they still had to be prepared for the worst.
"Return to the palace."
"yes."
…
On the first floor of the auction house, Ning Fengzhi was resting with his eyes closed.
The next moment, his eyes opened and he looked to the side with a gentle smile on his face.
"The Palace Master is even more impressive than the last time we met. I'm truly envious."
Every time Ning Fengzhi saw Xiao Mu, he was more awed than the last time, and now he was even more afraid of accidentally offending Xiao Mu.
"Sect Master Ning looks very good too. I'm sure we'll reap a lot this time."
"Thanks to the Palace Master's divine arts, we are able to refine a miraculous elixir like the Soul Breaking Pill. This is truly a blessing for the soul masters of Douluo Continent."
Every time you participate in a pill auction, you are actually giving money to the Soul Palace, but those who give money are happy to do so.
Ning Fengzhi and Xiao Mu were chatting, which made the people from Haotian Sect jealous.
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan has become history, and the Haotian Clan has taken the position previously occupied by Yu Yuanzhen and the others.
The auction of Haotian Sect's hidden weapons has ended, and they have no intention of hiding it any longer, so they choose to officially announce the re-emergence of Haotian Sect.
Several elders glanced at Tang Xiao from time to time.
You are all the leaders of the top three sects. Why don't you learn from Ning Fengzhi?
Although they usually looked down on Ning Fengzhi and felt that he was too flattering to the Soul Palace, he was a disgrace to the three upper sects.
But in their hearts, they were very jealous of Ning Fengzhi.
They also wanted to establish a good relationship with the Soul Palace, but one wrong step led to another. From the first time Tang Xiao went to see Xiao Mu, it was destined that the Haotian Sect would not be treated kindly by the Soul Palace.
Tang Xiao sat upright, his eyes on his nose and his nose on his mind, and did not talk to Xiao Mu as the elders wished.
Although he had only met Xiao Mu formally once, Tang Xiao felt that Xiao Mu was moody and had a bad temper. In addition, Xiao Mu had a very bad impression of the Haotian Sect.
If he rashly went up to talk to him, not only would it fail to change Xiao Mu's impression of the Haotian Sect, it might even have a counterproductive effect.
What Tang Xiao was most worried about was that if he started a conversation, he might be humiliated in front of so many people.
How would he step down then?
Angry? He would only be scolded, and if he wasn't careful, it might even bring bad luck to the entire Haotian Sect.
Swallowing the insult? How would the world view the Haotian Sect? How would they view him? He couldn't afford to lose face.
It's better to just pretend that you know nothing to avoid humiliation.
After a while, Xu Yunchang came out with a smile on his face and nodded towards Xiao Mu in a flattering manner.
As soon as he came out, everyone's fiery eyes were immediately fixed on him.
The auction officially begins.
