The interior of the hall was luxuriously decorated and surrounded by screens depicting mountains and rivers.
In the centre of the hall was a bronze furnace with a beast's head burning and white smoke rising from it.
An old man sat at the head of the table. His hair and beard were all white, and he wore a deep red robe. He looked dignified, but also kind and amiable. He played with a short sword in his hand, looking relaxed and indifferent. However, his eyes were drifting, obviously absent-minded.
When the old man saw Yang Qingxuan, he immediately stood up and said, "You've come!"
Yang Qingxuan stepped forward, cupped his fists, and said, "Greetings, Grandmaster Hong Yuan."
Hong Yuan laughed and said, "Haha, there's no need to be polite." Stepping forward, he took Yang Qingxuan's hand and politely led him to sit at the head of the hall.
Hong Yuan put the short sword on the table, leaned over slightly, and asked, "Little Brother, where did you get that Jade Imprint?"
Yang Qingxuan's eyes fell on the short sword. The blade was about fifteen inches long, the hilt was cross-shaped, and there was nothing special about it at first glance.
However, Yang Qingxuan's pupils shrank as a golden light flashed across his eyes. He immediately felt a strange rhythm coming from the sword and even a threatening Evil Qi.
Although Hong Yuan didn't say anything, from his clothes, the quality of the sword, and his attitude at the moment, Yang Kai could tell two things: First, Hong Yuan's status was not low and his strength was not ordinary. Second, he definitely recognized that jade pendant.
Yang Qingxuan suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked calmly, "Does Sir recognize that jade pendant?"
Hong Yuan's eager eyes froze for a moment before flickering as he grinned meaningfully, sat up straight, stroked his beard, and said, "I seem to have some impression of it, but I'm not sure. Little Friend, where did you get this thing? "
Neither of them was willing to speak first, instead probing each other.
Yang Qingxuan sneered in his heart and casually said, "I am from the Great Strength Demon Ox Clan and have been cultivating in the World of Annihilation all year round. This time, when I came to the Central Capital, a friend from my clan asked me to bring this thing for identification. "
Hong Yuan was stunned and fell into deep thought.
He originally thought that Yang Qingxuan had the jade pendant on him, but although the person in front of him was wearing a mask, the two blue horns on his head were eye-catching. He was obviously a member of the Demon Clan.
Moreover, although there were many branches of the Ox Demon Clan, they were all known for their honesty and honesty. Very few of them were scheming. With Yang Qingxuan saying so, it made Hong Yuan believe most of it.
Hong Yuan picked up the dagger on the table and played with it for a while before asking, "Is this jade pendant in your friend's hands?"
Yang Qingxuan said, "I don't know. My friend just gave me this rubbing."
Hong Yuan's face turned even uglier.
Yang Qingxuan's gaze lightly fell on the short sword. The veins on the back of Hong Yuan's hand bulged, as if he was beginning to feel anxious.
Yang Qingxuan suddenly became alert and asked tentatively, "Master, is this jade pendant very precious?"
Hong Yuan hesitated for a moment, obviously not willing to answer too much and instead seemed to be thinking about something.
Yang Qingxuan cursed in his heart, but after a moment of hesitation, he pretended to be angry and stood up, shouting, "Master, since you called me over, why don't you say anything? I paid a hundred top rank Spirit Stones! If you don't want to appraise it, you can return the Spirit Stones to me and I'll find another shop! "
Hong Yuan reluctantly smiled, stood up, and said repeatedly, "There's no hurry. Little friend, please don't be impatient. Since I took your Spirit Stones, naturally I have to appraise it. As for this jade pendant … "
Hong Yuan took the rubbing in his hand, pretended to look at it, and said, "It's not simple."
Yang Qingxuan's face went black. Looking at Hong Yuan's appearance, he most likely did not intend to tell the truth and was most likely plotting against him.
Yang Kai quietly released his Divine Sense and spread it around, a golden light flashing in his eyes. He found that the entire hall was sealed off by a barrier.
He sneered in his heart, then put away his Fiery Golden Eyes and Divine Sense, pretending to know nothing.
Hong Yuan said slowly, "I seem to have seen it in the ancient books. It seems to be an ancient jade, and it's worth a lot. Is your friend still in the Law Destruction World's Wanyao Mountain? "
Yang Qingxuan nodded and said, "Of course."
Hong Yuan suddenly smiled and said, "Our Fengyin Chamber of Commerce is planning to go to the Law Destruction World's Wanyao Mountain recently, and we want to talk to your Vigorous Demonic Ox Clan about something. I wonder if you can introduce us?"
Another referral?
Yang Qingxuan thought to himself, "Is the Vigorous Demonic Ox Clan so popular?"
He said, "Who are you referring to?"
Hong Yuan said, "Noble Ox King and your friend."
Yang Qingxuan waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I didn't appraise the value of this jade. My friend is most likely unhappy and won't want to see you. "
Hong Yuan was shocked and hurriedly said, "Is the jade really in your friend's hands?"
Yang Qingxuan snorted coldly and said, "Since Master can't recognize this jade, I naturally have nothing to say!"
He cupped his fists and pretended to leave.
Hong Yuan's face darkened, and a look of struggle flashed across his face. The short sword in his hand trembled slightly, and a dark red light flashed. He pierced over and shouted, "Since you have nothing to say, then die!"
The two of them were very close to each other, and a red light flashed across.
Yang Qingxuan took a step forward calmly, and with a twist of his body, he went to the center of the hall and dodged the sword.
He was so close, but he was so far away.
Hong Yuan's face changed. He didn't expect his sudden attack to be dodged by Lin Fan.
When Yang Qingxuan was still outside, he sent people to check on Yang Qingxuan's cultivation, and confirmed that he was in the middle stage of the Emperor Celestial Realm.
Thinking of this, although Barbarian Ox was straightforward, he was meticulous. He snorted coldly, and his body swayed on the spot. Like a cannonball, he shot out with his short sword and pierced towards Yang Qingxuan.
"Master, why are you doing this? Isn't this a little too ungentlemanly? "
Yang Qingxuan laughed coldly. He didn't dodge, and instead, opened his arms and grabbed out. This was the most basic of grappling techniques.
"Why? Haha! Naturally, it's for your life, for that piece of jade! "
Hong Yuan was completely shameless now. His eyes were filled with animal-like greed and viciousness as he roared out.
The short sword pierced down, but Yang Qingxuan's hand was already on Hong Yuan's wrist. With a forceful push, he blocked Hong Yuan's attack.
The Vajra floor on the ground shook with a rumbling sound and shattered into pieces, directly turning into fine powder.
However, the hall was still fine. Evidently, it was reinforced by a barrier.
"Haha! I've set up a copper formation in this hall. Even if Dao state powerful beings were to fight inside, they wouldn't be able to hear anything."
"Huehue, Master, don't you want your face anymore?"
The moment Yang Qingxuan heard this, he heaved a sigh of relief.
This Hong Yuan before him was only in the middle stage of the Emperor Celestial Realm, and was no different from him. What he was most worried about was that the fight would be heard by outsiders, and the Hidden Wind Merchant Association and the Wei Family would be attracted over. Hearing that it could block out the impact of Dao state beings, he couldn't help but chuckle.
However, Hong Yuan's strength was simply too great. Even for someone like him who cultivated his physical body, his hands were straining.
