After parting ways with Wang Defeng, Lu Xiaotian rode the wooden horse puppet back to his residence. Not long after, he suddenly saw a small old man with his back facing him. Lu Xiaotian couldn't help but be startled. The back of the old man was somewhat familiar. The hunchbacked old man seemed to have sensed that someone was looking at him. He turned around and sized up Lu Xiaotian. A trace of surprise flashed between his eyebrows, and then he smiled sinisterly. "I was wondering who it was. So it's Junior Apprentice Brother Lu. It's been many years since we joined forces to fight the cultivators of the Southern Wasteland. I trust Junior Apprentice Brother Lu has been well since we last met."
What a keen sense. Lu Xiaotian was slightly surprised. There were so many people on the street, but he only glanced at Xun Xiu a few times from behind and he already sensed the abnormality. When he first met Xun Xiu in the Library Hall, although Xun Xiu didn't give him a very amiable feeling, he didn't make him feel disgusted either. But now that he met Xun Xiu again, not only did he enter the seventh level, he even showed signs of breaking through to the late Foundation Establishment stage. Although Xun Xiu hid it well, Lu Xiaotian could still feel Xun Xiu's gaze that was inadvertently like a poisonous snake.
What a sinister cultivation method. Lu Xiaotian's heart trembled. Xun Xiu's change began when he accidentally discovered the secret of the black scales. Not only did his strength increase greatly, but his temperament also changed greatly. It seemed that those black scales definitely hid some kind of sinister and shocking cultivation method.
"Thanks to Senior Apprentice Brother Xun, these few years were just so-so." Lu Xiaotian smiled indifferently. Perhaps Xun Xiu's strength had increased greatly, but now he was no longer the cultivator who had just entered the Foundation Establishment stage. His cultivation was not inferior to Xun Xiu's, so he didn't need to pay too much attention to Xun Xiu's sinister gaze. He used the Breath Holding Technique to suppress his mana fluctuations to the level of the middle Foundation Establishment stage. It seemed that Xun Xiu didn't see through it. He just needed to be careful when they were together. However, he and Xun Xiu were destined to walk different paths, so there would be many opportunities for them to stay together in the future. As for Xun Xiu wanting to harm others, he didn't care as long as he didn't offend him.
"Ever since we parted, Junior Apprentice Brother Luo and Junior Apprentice Sister Su seemed to have some prejudice against me and were quite wary. Did you say something unpleasant behind their backs?" Xun Xiu coldly stared at Lu Xiaotian....... "I advise you not to maliciously slander others behind their backs. Be careful of retribution."
. "If you don't want people to know, don't do it.. Senior Apprentice Brother Xun knows in your heart whether or not it was malicious. Although the method and aura of the black shadow's sneak attack in the bamboo forest could be concealed for a while, it couldn't be concealed forever. As for what I do, does Senior Apprentice Brother Xun think you can control it? "Lu Xiaotian ignored Xun Xiu's threatening gaze.
"Does Junior Apprentice Brother Lu mean to be enemies with me?" Xun Xiu's gaze suddenly sharpened, hiding a shocking viciousness and resentment in its depths, giving the impression of a viper that had been dormant for many years.
"I advise you to restrain yourself. Don't think that you can be unrestrained just because you've cultivated some kind of sinister cultivation method. If you want to take advantage of the opportunity to retaliate, you can try. " Lu Xiaotian acted as if he didn't hear Xun Xiu's threat and glared back at him. Both of them knew what was going on with the other, so there was no need to beat around the bush.
"Very well, let's wait and see." Xun Xiu was extremely angry. After replying, he left with an unpleasant expression.
Originally, Lu Xiaotian was still a little interested in the black scales. However, after seeing that Xun Xiu's temperament had changed greatly after cultivating that sinister cultivation method, his interest in the scales naturally decreased greatly.
A few days later, Lu Xiaotian took the wheelchair from the Wang Weapon Workshop. He took the invitation sent by Wang Defeng and came to the venue of the auction. It was still the Lotus Cloud Villa in Full Moon City. However, this wasn't surprising. There were only a few people in Full Moon City who had the strength to hold a large-scale auction. And there weren't many venues suitable for holding large-scale auctions. The Lotus Cloud Villa had obviously made a name for itself over the years.
Lu Xiaotian sat in a wheelchair made of Cold Iron Wood and arrived at the entrance of the Lotus Cloud Villa. At this time, there were already many cultivators with high and low cultivation bases entering one after another. However, when he saw the familiar stooped figure in the crowd, Lu Xiaotian couldn't help but be slightly startled. This world was really small. He didn't expect to meet again after having an unpleasant encounter two days ago. It was really a small world.
"So Junior Brother Lu also came to the auction. Aren't you quite strong? Why are you sitting in a wheelchair? Do you have any injuries? Do you want me to take a look at you?" Xun Xiu didn't expect to meet Lu Xiaotian again so soon. However, when he saw that Lu Xiaotian was sitting in a wheelchair, he immediately understood why Lu Xiaotian was sitting on such a self-degrading wooden horse puppet a few days ago. It turned out that it was because of the inconvenience of his legs. Although Foundation Establishment cultivators could move freely even if they didn't have legs, it was still a little troublesome in Full Moon City where flying was prohibited.
"Fellow Daoist Xun, who is this?" Together with Xun Xiu was a horse-faced middle-aged man with a pair of triangular eyes with a hint of viciousness.
"He's a good-for-nothing Junior Brother of mine. I didn't expect his legs to be crippled. "Xun Xiu sneered.
"It seems that you don't get along with Fellow Daoist Xun. Little friend, how about we go outside Full Moon City and have a spar when you're free?" The horse-faced middle-aged man looked at Lu Xiaotian and smiled.
"Come to the Spirit Firmament Palace to find me when you're free. I'll accompany you at any time." Lu Xiaotian replied calmly. He stretched out his hand and showed a blue invitation to the guard at the door.
"So it's a distinguished guest. This way, please." After the guard saw Lu Xiaotian's invitation, the steward at the door immediately took the initiative to welcome him before he could report. Although he didn't know the origin of the silver-haired young man sitting in a wheelchair in front of him, the person who could get a blue invitation was either rich or powerful. In short, it was not something an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator could get.
"Let's go in too." After showing the invitation to the guard, Xun Xiu and the horse-faced cultivator frowned. Although no steward came out to welcome them, they still walked in the direction of Lu Xiaotian. After all, there were quite a lot of people entering the Lotus Cloud Mountain Villa, and there were even more people going directly to the lobby. However, there were very few people in the direction Lu Xiaotian went.
However, before they could take a few steps, Xun Xiu and the horse-faced cultivator were once again stopped by two powerful guards. This time, the guards were actually two mid Foundation Establishment cultivators. They wore expensive spirit armors and stood in front of Xun Xiu and the horse-faced cultivator with an expressionless face. "This is an important area of the auction. Guests, please do not enter."
"Why can that person go in?" The horse-faced cultivator pointed at Lu Xiaotian's back.
