It had only been six hours since the end of the Red Blood Palace's auction, yet she had managed to track down the identity of the owner of VIP room number two so quickly.
"What are you doing here?" The two of them shouted in a low voice. Fairy Ling had a bad record of attacking the owner of VIP room number two at the auction. If she tried to harm Su Yu now, no one would be able to stop her!
Fairy Ling stared at Su Yu's house. She didn't even look at the two of them. She walked straight to Su Yu's house and said in a pleasant voice, "I'm Fairy Ling. Shopkeeper Su, can you open the door for me?"
Su Yu, who was just about to start his training, had already sensed the approaching aura. He raised his brows slightly. Fairy Ling? The owner of the Tianya Auction House?
What is she doing here? Su Yu was vigilant against the Tianya Auction House, as it was a very mysterious force.
"Please come in," Su Yu said calmly.
She thought that Su Yu couldn't stop her, so she might as well meet him openly.
Fairy Ling smiled and stepped into the house.
"Fairy Ling, is there something you need from me?" Su Yu glanced at her casually. He was calm and didn't seem to panic at all.
Fairy Ling couldn't help but look at Su Yu. She was secretly amazed. Ordinary people who saw her would either be overwhelmed by her favor or feel uneasy. However, this man was so calm, as if he didn't care about her at all.
This level of willpower was truly impressive.
"Shopkeeper Su, what do you think?" Fairy Ling stopped looking down on Su Yu and smiled.
Su Yu said calmly, "If you're here for the Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid, please leave now. My shop will only start selling it in three days."
"I'm not very interested in the Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid. To be precise, I'm more interested in you than this spiritual liquid." Fairy Ling stared at Su Yu, trying to capture the expression she wanted from his eyes.
However, Su Yu was calm and chuckled. "I'm surprised that the owner of the famous Tianya Auction House would be interested in an old man like me."
"I hope you can do me a favor." Fairy Ling was still smiling, but her eyes had become much sharper.
Su Yu looked at her calmly. "Tell me the favor first."
"I want a Heartbroken Zither Grass! A complete living creature! "Fairy Ling enunciated each word clearly.
"I'm sorry, but you have found the wrong person. I do not have an extinct spiritual item like the Heartbroken Zither Grass." Su Yu had just finished speaking when he realized that something was amiss. He wanted to shut his mouth, but it was too late.
Fairy Ling's beautiful eyes flickered and she revealed a faint smile. "I didn't ask you for the Heartbroken Zither Grass! Since you're in such a hurry to clarify, it seems that the Heartbroken Zither Grass belongs to you, right? In other words, you were the one who refined the Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid? "
Su Yu was silent, but he regretted it in his heart. He had spoken too quickly, and this shrewd woman had managed to pry out some of his secrets.
"Let me guess. The Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid has been extinct since ancient times. Then, one day, a young shopkeeper came to Tianya City. Three days later, he announced that the Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid had been restored. In the end, the young shopkeeper claimed that this spiritual liquid was given to him by an old senior."
"Excuse me, is there such a coincidence in this world? Tianya City is so big, so why didn't they look for the best elixir store? Instead, they looked for a small elixir store that was in debt and didn't even have a shopkeeper for a year, and was about to close down? "
What a sensitive woman! Su Yu muttered to himself, but he still wore a relaxed expression on his face. "Who knows? Maybe the old senior saw that I was a promising talent, or maybe he couldn't bear for a small elixir store to close down, so he gave me some gifts on purpose."
"Hehe, do you believe it yourself?" Fairy Ling asked with a smile. Her eyes shone brightly, as if she had already seen through everything.
"I believe it," Su Yu replied simply and firmly.
Fairy Ling raised her slender fingers and said, "I already know your secret. If you don't want it to be leaked, give me 100 Heartbroken Zither Grass plants, and I'll keep it a secret for you. Otherwise, if it gets leaked, no one can guarantee your safety. I'm sure that on the second day after the news spreads, there will be Almighty Divine Masters who are more powerful than me looking for you. Moreover, they won't speak as calmly as I do."
Su Yu's expression was calm as he said, "The Red Blood Palace will take care of my personal safety. In less than half a day, there will be powerful Almighty Divine Masters hiding in the vicinity. If you spread the news, it will only cause me some small trouble, but it will cause you great trouble, won't it?"
A fifth-grade Almighty Divine Master, the owner of the Tianya Auction House, and a woman who possessed endless wealth, had come to ask for the Heartbroken Zither Grass in person.
Su Yu's elixir-refining talent would surely be exposed, but she wouldn't be able to get a single Heartbroken Zither Grass!
"Are you threatening me?" Fairy Ling's smile disappeared gradually, and her expression became tranquil. Hints of killing intent were brewing in her tranquility.
Su Yu was surprisingly calm. "Same here."
"Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you?" Fairy Ling lifted her eyes and stared at Su Yu.
"You wouldn't dare, because if I died, the Heartbroken Zither Grass would disappear forever," Su Yu said.
If she really wanted to kill him, she would have done so a long time ago, and she wouldn't have waited until now.
Fairy Ling was silent for a long time, then asked coldly, "What will it take for you to give it to me?"
"A deal!" Su Yu's eyes flickered.
Fairy Ling's fierce gaze gradually relaxed. Any problem that could be solved through a deal wasn't a problem.
"Speak."
"I want two things. First, all of the Vital Energies of a hundred fifth-grade Almighties! Second, a top-grade Water Path Supreme Treasure, which must be as valuable as the Fire Essence Jade! "
The former's value was immeasurable, while the latter was worth at least a million crystals!
Su Yu seemed like he was asking for too much.
As expected, Fairy Ling was so angry that she laughed. "The Vital Energies of a hundred fifth-grade Almighties? A Water Path Supreme Treasure that's as valuable as the Fire Essence Jade? Don't you think that you're asking for too much? "
Su Yu didn't care. "Compared to your plan to threaten me and ask for a hundred Heartbroken Zither Grass, I should be considered a kind person."
Fairy Ling's eyes were filled with killing intent. "I refuse! Your asking price is too high! "
"Then, you can find someone else," Su Yu said calmly.
Fairy Ling said, "The Water Path's most valuable treasure, which is on par with the Fire Essence Jade, is worth a million crystals. I can agree to that, but you're asking too much of me for the Vital Energy of 100 fifth-grade Almighty. You'll need at least ten million crystals to get 100 fifth-grade Almighty to be willing to condense their Vital Energy!"
It wasn't easy to find a hundred fifth-grade Almighties, and it was even more difficult to convince them to hand over their Vital Energies.
He had to pay a high enough price to move them. In the entire Eighteen Blessed and Heavenly Lands, only the Red Blood Palace and the Purple Cloud Palace had the confidence to accomplish such a task.
"No matter how high the price is, can you find an extinct Heartbroken Zither Grass?" Su Yu was calm, as if he already had Fairy Ling in his grasp.
Fairy Ling was speechless, and her beautiful eyes stared at Su Yu. After a long while, she restrained her flickering killing intent and nodded. "Fine, I'll help you with these two tasks! The Water Path Supreme Treasure will be delivered in three days, but the Vital Energies of a hundred Almighties will need half a year to be delivered! "
"Fine, deal." Su Yu revealed a faint smile as he took out an Ancient Book of the Heart's Oath.
Fairy Ling dripped her blood and made a vow with Su Yu without hesitation.
"Haha, Fairy Ling is really straightforward. After the task is completed, I'll deliver a hundred Heartbroken Zither Grass to you!"
Fairy Ling flicked her sleeves and stood up. She looked at him coldly and said, "You're on your own!"
After she finished speaking, she broke through the door and left with a gloomy look on her face.
The two Almighties at the door did not even dare to breathe loudly as they looked in shock at Fairy Ling, who had left in a rage.
The woman had come in a threatening manner. It was unknown what she had suffered at Su Yu's hands to make her so angry.
Su Yu smiled. How could he refuse such a juicy piece of meat that had been delivered to his doorstep?
After this incident, Su Yu had no time to cultivate. So, he took out two hundred grains of golden sand and continued to study these rare Mu words.
Half a day later, several Almighties were sent by the headquarters to guard the surroundings even more closely.
Now, it would be extremely difficult for Fairy Ling to barge into the courtyard.
Three days passed slowly, but there was still no movement in Su Yu's house.
Rumors about the Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid had spread like wildfire. Tianya City, the Purple Cloud Palace, the Red Blood Palace, the various factions, and even the various places in the Central Prefecture had all heard about the Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid.
For the various influences, obtaining the Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid was tantamount to obtaining more Almighty Divine Masters. If they could strengthen themselves earlier, they would have more opportunities to occupy resources.
All of a sudden, all the strong men in Tianya City gathered. Not only were there people from various influences, but there were also some mysterious strong men who had snuck into the city.
All of a sudden, the strong men in the city became restless.
In the past three days, the Almighties in the Tonglin Elixir Store had repelled dozens of invasions by martial artists, big and small. The invasions ranged from fairies who were good at concealment to Almighty strong men.
The atmosphere in the vicinity of the Tonglin Elixir Store was extremely tense.
Everyone was waiting to see if the Tonglin Elixir Store's sale of the Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid in three days was true. If it was true, it would surely cause a commotion.
On this day, Su Yu, who had been in seclusion for three days, finally left the house.
His appearance alarmed everyone.
Everyone, from the guards in the dark to the representatives of the various influences, was informed by the spies.
Cabinet Master Xiao Yao was the first to receive the news. He furrowed his brows slightly and asked, "Why did he come out at such a sensitive time? Could it be that the expert he mentioned is going to exchange elixirs with him?"
He doubted the reliability of the expert Su Yu had mentioned. Hence, he ordered his men to observe Su Yu in secret while protecting him. If Su Yu had left the Tonglin Elixir Store for the sake of obtaining elixirs, then his suspicions would fall apart.
"Perhaps, I'll have to make a trip there myself!"
Swoosh!
In the twinkling of an eye, Cabinet Master Xiao Yao turned into a breeze and disappeared.
When Fairy Ling received the news, she snorted coldly and said, "Pretentious!"
She knew very well that there was no such expert. Everything had been directed and acted by Su Yu himself. When she thought of how Su Yu had forced her to sign such an unfair contract, she gnashed her teeth in hatred.
"Aunt, who are you angry at?" At that moment, a sweet voice drifted over from the door. At the same time, a small head popped out.
If Su Yu was here, he would surely recognize that she was none other than Gongsun Wuxie.
She really had a great connection with the Tianya Auction House.
"Who else could it be? Isn't it your Senior Brother Su? Humph! If you hadn't repeatedly reminded me not to use force, I wouldn't have allowed him to negotiate with me! "Fairy Ling said angrily.
With her cultivation at that time, it would have been easy for her to capture Su Yu and interrogate him. The reason why she hadn't done so was mostly because of Gongsun Wuxie.
Gongsun Wuxie pouted. "That scoundrel! How dare he bully me! I'll go and teach him a lesson!"
"That's enough! Isn't it all because of you? It was supposed to be a simple matter, but you made it so troublesome. The Water Path Supreme Treasure isn't a big deal, but the Vital Energy of a hundred fifth-grade Almighty is enough to send a request to the headquarters for help, "Fairy Ling said.
Gongsun Wuxie blinked her eyes. "What does that guy want the Water Path Supreme Treasure for?"
"I don't know, and I don't want to know! Alright, come with me. Let's go and see what that old brat is trying to show off. "Fairy Ling was worried that Su Yu might encounter some mishap and lose the whereabouts of the Heartbroken Zither Grass.
Gongsun Wuxie rolled her eyes. "What's there to see? It's boring, so I'm not going. "
However, she couldn't dissuade Fairy Ling, so she was dragged out by her.
In the Hall of Celestial Spirits, Hu Wangui's eyes flickered when he heard the news. "Let's go. We should also go and see that senior!"
He had wanted to kill Su Yu for a long time, and he hadn't moved in the past three days because he wanted to talk to that senior personally. If he could hand over the Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid to the Hall of Celestial Spirits, he would be able to deal a heavy blow to the Red Blood Palace's industry!
As long as he could reach an agreement with that senior, Su Yu could kill him at any time to vent his hatred.
— —
Su Yu's current actions could be said to affect the whole city, and all of the influences and martial artists in the city were affected by it.
Many of Tianya City's residents discovered that there were martial artists hiding in the city.
All of them rushed toward the outer city.
