"You really agreed to him? But the underground battleground is really dangerous. "After sending Peng Zimai off, Chu Qianlou immediately asked.
Mo Wuji nodded, "Yes, I urgently need a skill. I have a feeling that the Yan Clan would not let me off so easily. If not for this auction, I would have left the Universal Hall and entered space. "
Agreeing to Peng Zimai was a spur of the moment idea. Both Peng Zimai and Chu Qianlou were sure that Mo Wuji agreed to go to the underground battleground for a skill.
Only Mo Wuji knew that one of the reasons why he suddenly agreed to Peng Zimai's request without any conditions was because he wanted that pole skill. But there was another more important reason, which was to escape the Universal Hall.
Even though he said that he was going to leave the Universal Hall and enter space now. In reality, he was sure that he would not be able to enter space now.
If the Yan Clan's reaction was so slow, it would be hard for the Yan Clan to become one of the three great clans of the Star King Mountain. The reason why the Yan Clan had yet to make a move on him was probably because they were wary of the Star King Mountain or some other reason, not Mo Wuji.
As long as there was an excuse, he was sure that the Yan Clan would immediately find him. He guessed that all the space doors that left the Universal Pier were being watched by the Yan Clan.
In this world, an excuse was the easiest way to find trouble with someone. As long as the Yan Clan wanted him to stay, they could find a hundred reasons not to let him leave space.
Even if the Yan Clan wanted him to leave the Universal Hall now, he would not dare to do so. Who could guarantee that the Yan Clan would not follow him into space? Last time, he had been followed once. Fortunately, that fella underestimated his abilities and met the Space Scorpion, allowing him to escape unscathed.
Since the Yan Clan lacked an excuse, he would give them one. After all, he was going to the underground battleground after the auction. He believed that the Yan Clan would be the first to find out where he was going and wait for him at the underground battleground.
What made him suspicious was that Peng Zimai was not worried that the Yan Clan would kill him in the first round. If the Yan Clan really killed him in the first round, then Star Searching Merchant House's plan to earn contribution points from him would go down the drain.
The only possibility was that Star Searching Merchant House had the confidence to not let the Yan Clan kill him and earn contribution points for him. This wasn't strange. Star-Searching Merchant House didn't have any backing, so it wouldn't be able to survive until now and still be so popular.
"Then you better be careful," Chu Qianlou said worriedly.
"Sister Chu, I'll be fine. House Yan can't keep me here because they don't know me at all. I still have some matters to attend to. After this auction, I might directly enter the starry sky. Take care of yourselves. " Mo Wuji looked at Pang Qi and co. and said. He believed that the yellow-bearded enforcer wouldn't speak blindly and the Jing Clan wouldn't dare to do anything to Pang Qi and co. in the Universal Hall.
As for the Yan Clan, Mo Wuji guessed that they would not vent their anger on Pang Qi and co.
After some thought, Mo Wuji retrieved a command flag and passed it to Chu Qianlou, "If the Yan Clan or the Jing Clan really dares to find trouble with you, then take this command flag to the Northern Star Army to look for Mou Lanhan and join them."
Although Mo Wuji believed that the Yan Clan would not vent their anger on him, he was still worried. A family like House Yan would do things differently in the open and in the shadows. He was afraid that they would act in secret.
"You know Mou Lanhan from the Mou Clan? Then you should join the Northern Star Army too. The Yan Clan definitely wouldn't dare to do anything to you, "Chu Qianlou said happily.
Mo Wuji shook his head, "I might go in the future but not now."
Mo Wuji naturally wouldn't look for Mou Lanhan now because he wasn't sure if he would become a bargaining chip for the Mou Clan and the Yan Clan. At least he wouldn't do such a thing before he controlled his own fate. Chu Qianlou and co. weren't the Yan Clan's targets so they wouldn't have to worry about finding Mou Lanhan.
Moreover, if he were to look for Mou Lanhan from the Northern Star Army now, he would owe them a huge favour. This favour might even cost him his life and he wasn't willing to do so. Letting Chu Qianlou and co. bring the command flag to the Northern Star Army would also mean that he would owe them a favour. However, this favour was much smaller. At most, it would be a favour of introducing them to a job.
Mo Wuji naturally understood the logic behind how he managed to survive till today.
"Alright, if we need them, I will bring Pang Qi and co. to the Northern Star Army," Chu Qianlou accepted Mo Wuji's command flag.
…
A few days passed by and Chu Qianlou and co. seemed to know that Mo Wuji was preparing to enter space so they didn't disturb him.
There was only one day left until the auction. Mo Wuji packed his things as he still had some matters to attend to. At this moment, he had close to 1.1 million contribution points to use but it was still not enough for Mo Wuji.
At this moment, the restriction at the door moved.
Mo Wuji's spiritual will penetrated the restriction and he saw a skinny black robed man. This black robed man looked like a sheathless sword as his entire body exuded sharp sword qi. In reality, he was also carrying a sheathless sword on his back and on his right wrist was a red ribbon knot.
Looking at his cultivation level, he should be in the Great Circle of the True Lake Stage.
Mo Wuji opened the restriction at the door, "Friend, what's the matter?"
The black robed man sized Mo Wuji up before nodding his head, "I'm here to look for you. Aren't you going to invite me in?"
Mo Wuji laughed because a True Lake Stage cultivator couldn't do anything to him. Even if he was from the Yan Clan, he wasn't afraid.
"Please come in," Mo Wuji invited the black robed man into the room and set up another restriction.
"You're not bad. This is the first time I've heard of someone who dared to attack a law enforcer and come out unscathed. Keke, that's fine but you actually dared to kill a member of the Yan Clan, "The black robed man said as he sat down.
"If someone wants to kill me, even if he's the hall master of the Universal Hall, I would still dare to do so," Mo Wuji said faintly.
The black robed man clapped his hands, "That's right, I admire people like you. Whoever wants to kill me, no matter who he is, I will kill him. "
Mo Wuji wasn't affected by the man's words as he sat down and asked calmly, "I don't even know you. Did you come here just to say these few words?"
"I'm here to tell you that the Yan Clan will act against you," The black robed man knocked on the table as he said casually.
Mo Wuji didn't mind, "So what? The Universal Hall has its own rules. "
The black robed man didn't mind Mo Wuji's words as he continued, "I believe you know that the Universal Hall's rules are bullsh * t. Moreover, I'm guessing that the Yan Clan will act against you at the Star Searching Battlefield … "
Mo Wuji's heart skipped a beat but before he could ask, the black robed man continued, "According to the information I received and my judgement, someone will act against you the moment you leave the auction. You won't have the chance to go to the Star Searching Battlefield so you're dreaming if you want to leave the Universal Hall while you're there. "
"Who are you? Why are you telling me all this? "Mo Wuji calmed down as he knew that his plan wouldn't work.
The only thing he couldn't understand was that his plan should be flawless. The Yan Clan was the most suitable person to kill him at the Star Searching Battlefield. Why did the Yan Clan choose to act the moment he left the auction? Regardless of whether the other party was speaking the truth, Mo Wuji treated it as the truth.
The black robed man smiled faintly, "I don't have a name but I have a nickname called the Solitary Red Knot. I'm helping you because I admire you. Of course, if you don't believe me, that's fine too. "
Mo Wuji had never heard of the Solitary Red Knot so he had to believe the Solitary Red Knot's words regardless of whether they were true or not.
"You think I should leave now?" Mo Wuji didn't say whether he believed the Solitary Red Knot's words but asked a question instead.
If the Solitary Red Knot said that he should leave now, then he wouldn't hesitate to chase him away. The auction would be held the next day so leaving now would be equivalent to sending him to his death.
"If you leave now, you'll be sending yourself to your death. I do have a way to help you. Of course, before that, I need to tell you something. The Star Searching Battlefield is actually the property of the Yan Clan and not many people know about this. It's just like how not many people know that the Single Horn Challenge Stage is the property of the Xia Clan, "the Solitary Red Knot said calmly.
"What?" Mo Wuji's expression changed. This time, he finally understood why Peng Zimai was willing to lend him a million contribution points and wasn't worried that the Yan Clan would stop him from earning contribution points at the Star Searching Battlefield.
"I'm helping you because my brother acted against the enforcers here and was killed. Back then, when he clashed with the Xia Clan, he was clearly in the right but the enforcers shamelessly mixed up the truth and killed him. All these years, I've only seen the enforcers suck up to the three big clans and countless people who have no background to back them up. They've been slapped on the left and sent to the right. You're the first person who dared to act against the enforcers and came out unscathed. "
After the Solitary Red Knot finished speaking, he sighed deeply, "Maybe you're lucky to have offended a small ant like the Jing Clan or met Yu Qianni, the enforcer who doesn't like to cause trouble."
"You've been staying here all this time because you're looking for a chance to take revenge?" Mo Wuji suddenly asked.
The Solitary Red Knot said emotionlessly, "I don't just want revenge. I want to build a place that doesn't belong to the three big clans. The Universal Hall belongs to all the cultivators of Zhen Xing and not the three big clans. Of course, before that, I have to kill a lot of people. "
Mo Wuji could feel the fire burning in the Solitary Red Knot's chest. He suddenly said, "Maybe I'll help you in the future. Now, I'm going to the Single Horn Battlefield."
…
Star Searching Merchant House had always been one of the biggest merchant houses in the Universal Hall. This merchant house had always been low profile and many of the large scale auctions in the Universal Hall were handled by this merchant house.
And today was the day of the biggest auction in the Universal Hall in two years. This auction was organized by the Star Searching Merchant House.
Mo Wuji, who had disguised himself as a middle-aged man, followed the crowd into the auction venue of the Star Searching Merchant House. Even he couldn't help but admire the Solitary Red Knot's ability to disguise himself. Even if one stared at him, one wouldn't be able to tell that he had disguised himself without using his spiritual will.
Anyone who could survive in the Universal Hall was indeed not simple.
