"There are another three days before we converge with the other possessors of the jade swords … Big Brother Ling Tian, have you contacted them during this period of time?"
Han Xuenai looked at Duan Lingtian as she asked.
"No."
Duan Lingtian shook his head.
During this period of time, he was busy cultivating, so how could he have the time to care about other things?
"I feel that some of them have surely arrived at the Eastern Mulberry Empire's Imperial City at this time … It's even to the extent that they might be staying in some inns in the Imperial City."
Han Xuenai guessed.
"Perhaps … I'll contact them after I return to my room."
Duan Lingtian nodded, and then he said, "It's already late, go to bed early."
"Okay."
Han Xuenai nodded, and her eyes were still filled with excitement when she returned to her room.
"This little girl is even more excited than me."
Duan Lingtian shook his head and smiled.
After Duan Lingtian returned to his room, his gaze flashed. "I've finally advanced my cultivation to the Void Initiation Stage before I enter the Sword Monarch's Treasure! "
After washing up, Duan Lingtian lay on the bed and withdrew his jade sword.
His Origin Energy fused into the Voice Transmission Inscription on the jade sword.
Instantly, a sonorous voice that seemed familiar entered into Duan Lingtian's ears. "Brother, you've finally made an appearance … We'll be able to meet in a few days, and I'm really looking forward to it."
"I'm really looking forward to it."
Duan Lingtian recovered from his shock and recognized the owner of this sonorous voice.
At that time, when he was still in the Crimson Sky Kingdom, it was precisely this person that he'd contacted when he used the Voice Transmission Inscription on the jade sword for the first time.
"I've already arrived at the Eastern Mulberry Empire's Imperial City … Where are all of you?"
Another voice sounded out.
To Duan Lingtian, this was a completely unfamiliar voice.
It ought to be the possessors of the other jade swords.
"I've arrived at the Imperial City as well."
"I haven't arrived yet, I'm on the way … I ought to be able to arrive punctually at Pheasant Ridge three days from now."
"I'll be able to arrive at the Eastern Mulberry Empire's Imperial City tomorrow."
…
Following that, more voices could be heard.
They were all owners of other jade swords.
"By the way, brother … did you bring a friend? According to our agreement, every single one of us can bring a person along with us into the Sword Monarch's Treasure. "
Suddenly, the owner of the loud and clear voice spoke again, obviously speaking to Duan Lingtian.
"Yes, I brought a friend."
Duan Lingtian responded.
It turned out that he was still worried about whether the other jade sword possessors would have any objections if Xue Nai headed to the Sword Monarch's Treasure with him.
Now it would seem that Xue Nai entering the Sword Monarch's Treasure with him wasn't considered to be abrupt.
"But with Xue Nai's strength, it wouldn't be difficult for her to annihilate the others at the moment the Sword Monarch's Treasure is opened."
Duan Lingtian shuddered at the thought of Han Xuenai's strength.
"Right! If Xue Nai really annihilates the others at the moment the Sword Monarch's Treasure is opened … Then wouldn't Xue Nai and I be able to monopolize all the treasures within the Sword Monarch's Treasure? "
When he thought up to here, Duan Lingtian's breathing became slightly hurried.
At dawn the next day, Duan Lingtian and Han Xuenai walked out of their respective rooms and left the inn together before finding a nearby restaurant to have breakfast.
It wasn't long before the restaurant was filled with customers.
"I heard that the Tang Clan will be auctioning a treasure at the central square this afternoon … At that time, we have to go join in the fun."
"Doesn't the Tang Clan have its own auction house? Why isn't it auctioning it at the auction house? "
"I don't know about this … But, based on the Tang Clan's great fanfare, that treasure is probably not simple."
"I'm interested as well after hearing what you said … Let's go together at that time."
…
A wave of discussion sounded out from the table beside Duan Lingtian.
It was three young men in embroidered clothes chatting.
"Big Brother Ling Tian, let's go join in the fun in the afternoon as well?"
Han Xuenai's eyes glowed, and she'd obviously aroused interest towards the Tang Clan's treasure.
"Yes."
Duan Lingtian nodded, as he was similarly interested.
"It would be great if it's the Ageless Root …"
Duan Lingtian sighed in his heart.
But he knew as well that this was practically impossible.
Even if the Tang Clan possessed the Ageless Root, it would probably be impossible for it to be so great fanfare.
The central square of the Eastern Mulberry Empire's Imperial City was undoubtedly an existence similar to the central square of the Darkstone Empire's Imperial City, and it was extremely bustling and filled with streams of people.
At that time, the Darkstone Empire's Imperial City held the Young Genius Competition of the Empire at such a place.
As far as Duan Lingtian was concerned.
The Tang Clan's great fanfare meant that the treasure was surely a publicly acknowledged treasure, and it wasn't the Ageless Root that many people were unable to recognize.
After they finished their breakfast, they walked around the Imperial City.
All along the way, Duan Lingtian was able to hear that the entire Imperial City was filled with the news of the Tang Clan auctioning the treasure in the afternoon.
"I must go earlier in the afternoon so as to occupy a good spot."
"It would be great if I was a martial artist at the Void Prying Stage or above, as there are many spots in the sky."
"Yeah, if it was an existence at the Void Prying Stage or above, then there would be utterly no need to fight for a spot on the ground."
…
Duan Lingtian could hear these discussions everywhere.
"Big Brother Ling Tian, I'm becoming more and more interested in the thing the Tang Clan is auctioning in the afternoon."
Han Xuenai giggled, and her watery eyes revealed a trace of craftiness.
"Xue Nai, if you like it, I'll buy it for you."
Duan Lingtian was rather confident now.
All along the way, the wealth in his possession had already accumulated to an extremely terrifying extent.
During these past few years, he hadn't only plundered a large amount of wealth from everywhere.
Even the Spatial Rings of those people that had died at his hands contained quite a large amount of wealth.
His gold and silver wealth continued to accumulate.
Up until now, he was slightly unable to remember exactly how much wealth he possessed.
"Big Brother Ling Tian, if I'm really interested, then I'll directly seize it … Why would I need you to spend money?"
Han Xuenai blinked her crafty eyes and smiled.
The corners of Duan Lingtian's mouth couldn't help but twitch when he heard this.
Yeah.
With Xue Nai's strength, seizing a treasure from the Eastern Mulberry Empire's Tang Clan wasn't difficult at all.
After all, even the number one expert of the Darkstone Empire, King Yong, was extremely fearful before Xue Nai.
The strongest expert of the Eastern Mulberry Empire was at most at the same level as King Yong.
He was most probably inferior to Xue Nai.
In the afternoon, Duan Lingtian and Han Xuenai brought along the two little pythons to fly through the sky and arrive at the central square of the Eastern Mulberry Empire's Imperial City.
"So many people."
Duan Lingtian looked down at the central square and noticed that it was packed with people, and he could only see numerous heads ceaselessly moving about, causing it to be extremely bustling.
Presently, there were many martial artists at the Void Prying Stage and above in the sky.
Most of these martial artists had come to join in the fun.
"The Tang Clan has caused such a great commotion today, I wonder what treasure they're auctioning off …"
Someone couldn't refrain from speaking curiously.
"No matter what treasure it is, I have to properly experience it today."
"The Tang Clan has never done anything that pleases the crowd. I presume they're really auctioning off some extraordinary treasure today."
"I really look forward to it."
…
More and more martial artists at the Void Prying Stage and above converged over and discussed animatedly.
Duan Lingtian and Han Xuenai stood in the sky that was closest to the center of the square.
Presently, a high platform had been erected at the center of the square.
This high platform had just been erected not long ago, and it was obviously specially built by the Tang Clan for the sake of the auction this afternoon.
Swoosh!
A young man in embroidered clothes flashed over from afar and descended near Duan Lingtian and Han Xuenai.
Duan Lingtian was fine and didn't have any reaction.
However, Han Xuenai instead frowned and turned her head to look at the young man in embroidered clothes. "You, go away! Don't stand beside me and my Big Brother Ling Tian and disturb us. "
Obviously, Han Xuenai had taken the sky that she and Duan Lingtian stood in to be her private territory.
The young man in embroidered clothes was first stunned when he heard Han Xuenai's voice, and when he turned around and saw Han Xuenai's peerlessly beautiful face, he revealed an evil smile. "Little Miss, don't worry, Big Brother guarantees that I won't disturb you."
"But, Little Miss, you're really pretty … Smile for Big Brother to see."
The young man in embroidered clothes spoke frivolously as he flew forward to approach Han Xuenai.
At the same time, he stretched out his hand to touch Han Xuenai's chin.
Duan Lingtian glanced at the young man with a gaze of pity.
He knew that this fellow was going to suffer misfortune.
At practically the instant that this thought arose in Duan Lingtian's mind.
Swish! Swish!
Two ear piercing howls sounded out.
Two bolts of lightning, one black and one white, flashed out from Han Xuenai's sleeve and flashed directly towards the young man in embroidered clothes.
In the next moment, a bloody hole appeared on the young man's throat and chest, and dazzling and resplendent blood sprayed out from them.
The young man didn't even have the time to emit a shrill cry, and his hand remained in the posture of wanting to touch Han Xuenai's chin as he directly fell down.
Bang!
The young man in embroidered clothes fell on the high platform that was built before his death, and he was completely silent.
Dead.
Instantly, the surroundings were in an uproar.
"Isn't that the Bai Clan's Third Young Master, Bai Fan?"
"Exactly, it's Bai Fan! I truly never imagined that Bai Fan, who ran amok in our Eastern Mulberry Empire's Imperial City, would fall here today. "
"Yeah, I truly never expected this."
…
Waves of exclamations of surprise sounded out from the surroundings in a timely manner.
Of course, most of them were taking pleasure in Bai Fan's misfortune.
Obviously, Bai Fan's reputation wasn't good.
"Hiss hiss ~"
Meanwhile, the two little pythons returned to Han Xuenai's hand, and they glared fiercely at Bai Fan's corpse.
"Alright, he's already dead."
Han Xuenai lightly smiled and lightly rubbed the heads of the two little fellows.
The two little fellows instantly closed their eyes in enjoyment.
"Xue Nai, I'm slightly jealous when I see Little Black and Little White being so close to you."
Duan Lingtian joked.
But while Han Xuenai was able to discern that he was joking, the two little pythons were unable to discern it.
Swish! Swish!
In the next moment, two bolts of lightning, one black and one white, flashed out from Han Xuenai's hand and descended onto Duan Lingtian's shoulder in the end.
"Hiss hiss ~"
"Hiss hiss ~"
