"Hundreds of years ago, the two ancient clans that dominated the northern continent, the Tu clan and the Yue clan, were suppressed by the King of Darkness."
"Among them, the Tu Clan struggled at death's door while the Yue Clan was annihilated by the Emperor and erased from history."
"This is the only one of the Eight Great Ancient Clans to have its name removed, the Yue Clan!"
Su Yu was shocked. The King of Darkness was really bold, as he had unexpectedly exterminated two clans in a row.
Among them, the Yue Clan was completely uprooted and removed from the world.
"The remaining Six Great Ancient Clans occupy the East, South, and West Continents, and are on equal footing with the Empire of Darkness," Hua Zhilan said solemnly.
During this conversation, Su Yu had learned a lot about the continent's secrets.
He had once thought that the Empire of Darkness was an invincible existence in the Zhenlong Continent.
It was only now that he found out about the legends of the eight ancient clans.
Tu Long had an embarrassed expression on his face, "Palace Master Zhilan, what she said is true. A thousand years ago, the Northern Continent was occupied by the Tu and Yue Clans. Together with the other six great ancient clans, they formed an encirclement to deal with the Empire of Darkness."
"Hundreds of years ago, the Empire of Darkness was besieged by the Eight Great Ancient Clans. The situation was dire. At the critical juncture, the King of Darkness comprehended a Divine Skill and came out of seclusion. With a force that could sweep through everything, he forced the Eight Great Ancient Clans to retreat!"
"At the same time, we will step into the northern continent and annihilate the Tu and Yue families! Restore the Northern Continent, the birthplace of the Empire of Darkness! "
"During this process, the Tu family voluntarily surrendered and managed to survive. However, the King of Darkness ordered that no one from the Tu family was allowed to leave the Dark Forest. Otherwise, their names would be erased from this world! Anyue City is the furthest the Tu Clan can go. "
"Anyue City was actually built by the Tu Clan. They are the true controllers of Anyue City in the dark."
"As for the Yue family, due to their stubborn resistance, they were completely wiped out by the King of Darkness.
"The next few hundred years will be the unprecedented golden age of your Empire of Darkness. As a result, the Empire of Darkness has set up branch palaces in the East, South, and West Continents at the same time. This shows how terrifying the King of Darkness is!"
"In the Zhenlong Continent, the King of Darkness is invincible!"
After hearing this, Su Yu was shocked for a long time.
What a brilliant and unparalleled King of Darkness!
It suppressed past generations, swept through the world, and devoured the world.
Just who was this invincible supreme being of the continent?
Su Yu looked forward to it. Could he reach the level of the King of Darkness by relying on the Divine Nine-Dragon Cauldron?
After understanding everything, Hua Zhilan smiled faintly, "Junior Yin Yu, what do you think?"
Su Yu's eyes flashed: "Haha, the Tu family does not allow us to go, but we insist on going!"
What he was looking forward to the most was meeting with the people from the Phoenix Cabinet. Even if he was unable to see Xian 'er personally, he would be able to ask about her current situation.
After being separated for half a year, he wondered how Xian 'er was doing.
The Phoenix Cabinet's Master valued her Phoenix of Death Bloodline and would definitely nurture her with all her might. With Xian'er's personality, would she train seriously?
Could it be that she was secretly hiding somewhere and playing with a group of children, making a fuss? Or … did she miss him?
A desolate smile appeared at the corners of Su Yu's mouth. As he thought about it, he suddenly felt sad and slightly bitter.
She was his fiancée in name, but they never had a peaceful day together.
Did Xian'er, who had a tender heart, feel lonely?
"Hehe, it is just as I thought. The auction is in three days. After we attend it, it will be the night of the full moon. We can head straight to the training grounds." Hua Zhilan interrupted Su Yu's thoughts.
Su Yu retracted his expression, nodding his head, "Alright, we will rest here for the next two days."
After saying this, Su Yu looked at Tu Long, "You can go home."
Tu Long let out a bitter laugh, "Back then, I stubbornly gave up my identity as a member of the Tu family and as the young master of the Tu family, just to see the world outside the Forest of Darkness."
"Now, how can I return to the clan so easily? Let's follow you and take a look at the Tu Clan's auction. We might come into contact with some members of the Tu Clan there. If they still remember me, we can go back. If they have already forgotten about me, why should we go back and cause them trouble? "
He was the young master of the Tu family?
The crowd was shocked!
They could not tell that Tu Long had such a background.
The young master of the Eight Great Ancient Clans. Such a position was no small matter!
But he was someone who had given up his identity as a member of the Tu family. Everything was in the past.
The group of people rested peacefully in the inn.
Su Yu did not forget to train even when he was resting.
Now that Nine Fingers of Imaginary Thunder had broken through to Stage One Top Class, he was trying to comprehend Stage Two.
Heaven's Son Gazing At Air had just broken through to Stage One Upper Class, and he was still a distance away from Stage Two.
Lastly was Buddhist Saint's Eight Characters. He was only a step away from breaking through to Lower Class.
But strangely, Su Yu was unable to break through to the next level.
It was as if there was a long threshold between Entry and Lower Class.
The difficulty of comprehending this legendary-level technique far surpassed immortal-level techniques.
Over the past four days, Su Yu had made no progress.
He had only stabilized his cultivation level at Immortal Realm Level One Peak. If he had the chance, he could try to break through to Immortal Realm Level Two.
Tonight was the night of the full moon, and it was also the day the Tu family's auction would begin.
Su Yu and the other three left the inn, arriving at the Tu family's auction house in the center of Anyue City.
The entrance was heavily guarded. There were at least ten strong Immortal Realm fighters.
A white-haired elder sat in front of a table at the entrance, patiently appraising the item in his hand.
Su Yu walked forward. The elder did not even raise his head, "Stop, hand over the deposit."
Many auction houses had similar rules. Su Yu said, "How much do I need to pay as a deposit?"
The guard replied expressionlessly, "The more you pay, the higher the auction seats you can get. You can even get a seat in the VIP room."
Su Yu nodded his head, taking out a White Dragon Plant.
He had obtained it from the Ancient Xianyun Temple, and it had the effect of raising the cultivation level of those below Dragon Realm Level Three.
The elder did not even raise his head, merely taking a sniff with his nose, "A White Dragon Plant. Lower class seats, place it on the table."
Su Yu was slightly surprised. What powerful appraisal skills. He could tell that it was a White Dragon Plant without even looking.
Whoosh — —
Su Yu took out a jade box. A fiery red phoenix feather lay quietly within, circulating a resplendent fiery red color.
Shreds of warm energy seeped out from the cracks of the jade box.
The elder subconsciously took a sniff with his nose, his expression slightly stunned. He could not help but raise his head, his gaze landing on the jade box.
He took it and examined it. His indifferent expression gradually changed, becoming serious, "This is … a Phoenix feather!"
"You are not from the Cabinet of the Phoenix, right? I do not remember them agreeing to participate in the auction. "The elder sized up the four of them, his eyes filled with suspicion.
It was obvious that he was suspicious that the Phoenix feather had come from a shady background.
Su Yu creased his brows, "Just because I am not from the Cabinet of the Phoenix, does that mean I did not have the chance to obtain the Phoenix feather? Since I dared to take it out, I am naturally not afraid of the people from the Cabinet of the Phoenix finding trouble with me. "
The elder's tone was unfriendly, "I do not care if you swindled your way here. What I am worried about is people with unknown identities and motives sneaking into the auction to cause trouble!"
The crowd could not help but be furious. This elder's words were too harsh!
He had already reiterated that the Phoenix feather had come from a legitimate background, yet he still wanted to label Su Yu and his group as swindlers.
Creasing his brows, Su Yu calmly said, "Let me ask you one question. Is the item I gave you qualified to enter?"
For some unknown reason, the elder was extremely hostile towards Su Yu and his group, "It is qualified, but I will not allow you to enter!"
"The Tu family has never welcomed lowly people like you." The elder was extremely prejudiced, waving his sleeves as if he was chasing away flies, "Leave, I will not go back on my word!"
Lowly people? Su Yu did not know how to communicate with such a stubborn elder.
This was the Tu family's auction house, and he could not afford to lose his temper. He could only suppress his anger, "Alright, we will not enter the Tu family's auction house. We will leave now."
Tu Long had secretly sent a message that there was another way to enter, and they did not need to go through this elder.
"Have a safe trip, I will not send you off." The elder sat down, letting out a disdainful laugh.
He had seen too many people like Su Yu, who thought that he was at ease after being rejected.
"Oh, have you finished looking at the Phoenix feather? Bring it over if you are. "Su Yu grabbed the jade box on the table.
But what Su Yu did not expect was for the elder to snatch it first, grabbing the jade box and slowly placing it in his robes.
Su Yu's gaze turned cold, "What do you mean?"
The elder did not even raise his head, calmly saying, "The Tu family has a duty to confiscate ill-gotten gains!"
"I have said that I obtained this from the Master of the Phoenix Cabinet!" Su Yu's tone was cold.
The elder waved his hands in disgust, "Noisy! I will contact the Phoenix Cabinet to confirm the origins of this item. If it is true, I will return it to you. Come back in three months! "
He forcefully took Su Yu's item, and actually dared to say that Su Yu would take it back in three months!
Putting aside the question of whether he could get the item back from the Anyue City of the Eight Great Ancient Clans.
Even if he could, the Phoenix feather was a one-time-use item. If they used it all, where would he find more?
"My patience has run out. I will warn you one last time, hand it over!" Su Yu was burning with anger.
Looking at it now, the elder was purposely making things difficult for him, because he wanted to take the Phoenix feather for himself!
It was rare for Su Yu to be so shameless in front of so many people.
Slap — —
The elder slammed the table fiercely, brushing his sleeves as he stood up, his face filled with disgust and impatience, "I do not wish to repeat myself! Scram! A bunch of lowlifes! "
Seeing that Su Yu and his group were standing at their original positions, with no intention of leaving, the elder turned his head and berated, "Where are the guards!"
Whoosh whoosh whoosh — —
Ten strong martial artists of the Immortal Realm appeared in a flash and surrounded Su Yu and the other three people.
The leader of the guards was a strong man of Immortal Realm Level Two Lower Tier, "Elder Li, what is going on with these two?"
The elder who was addressed as Elder Li had a look of disgust in his eyes. "A few lowly people pretended to be from the Phoenix Cabinet. I only confiscated their stolen goods. Chase them away. If they don't know what's good for them, we can also capture them!"
The strong man shot a cold gaze toward Su Yu, "How daring. I have seen many impersonators, but I have never heard of anyone impersonating the Phoenix Cabinet."
Su Yu remained silent, and his face was as cold as ice.
They were in cahoots. Su Yu naturally could not be bothered to explain. Only fists could solve problems.
"Humph! There is no need to quibble, quibbling is futile! Scram immediately! "The strong man thought that Su Yu would defend himself. Without even looking, he raised his hand to chase Su Yu away.
Su Yu lifted his head coldly, his eyes filled with killing intent, "You asked for it!"
