Chapter 603: Sense of Crisis
As the words fell, it meant that this auction event had come to a successful conclusion.
The man who had made a lot of money had a smile on his face, and he bowed his hands to the surrounding people and said:
"Thank you to all Taoist friends in Liangzhou and distinguished guests from all major forces for their strong support for this auction event. On behalf of the Jinjia Chamber of Commerce, I would like to express my gratitude here! Please also ask the distinguished guests who have just auctioned the treasures to wait a moment. Someone will be there soon. Send the treasure to the elegant room!”
After saying this, Jin Ruyu retreated directly from the high platform and did not know where he went.
In the elegant room No. 36, Qin Tian looked normal on the surface, but from the flash of light in the depths of his eyes from time to time, it could be seen that he was not at peace at the moment.
Just at this moment, the maid's voice came from outside the door.
Then he saw a middle-aged monk wearing a golden robe and with a cultivation level of the middle stage of the Golden Elixir, slowly walking into the elegant room.
After arriving at the scene, the visitor first glanced at Qin Tian calmly, and then said politely:
"I am the deacon of the Jin family. This is the "Purple Pole Star Sand" and the strange stone that fellow Taoist took. I hope you will check it carefully. Once you leave the auction house, I, the Jin family, will not be responsible!"
As he spoke, the middle-aged monk raised his hand, took out a delicate storage bag, and placed it on the table.
Upon seeing this, Qin Tian stood up and returned the greeting, then used the power of his spiritual consciousness to check it carefully. After confirming that it was correct, he quickly took out a large number of middle-grade spiritual stones.
When the deal is completed, both parties are happy.
The middle-aged monk said nothing, stood up and left with his hands in hand.
Qin Tian was naturally in a good mood after getting the rare treasure. He casually rewarded the maid with a few mid-level spiritual stones, and then mixed in with the crowd of monks and headed towards the gate of the auction house.
But shortly after leaving the auction house, while walking to a busy street, Qin Tian suddenly felt a warning sign in his heart, as if someone was peeping coldly in the dark.
Upon noticing such anomalies, he remained calm on the surface and his footsteps did not stop at all. However, the power of his spiritual consciousness quietly reached out and probed towards the dense crowd behind him.
It's just that because the auction event has just ended, there are many golden elixir stage masters on the street, and all of them have concealed their appearance and aura. Therefore, after careful exploration, it is difficult to gain anything at all.
But with many years of experience on the edge of life and death, Qin Tian is almost certain that the person who was secretly watching just now has murderous intentions!
In the end, in desperation, in order to avoid alerting the enemy, Qin Tian could only pretend to be nonchalant and continue walking towards the temporary cave.
But deep in his eyes, there was a slightly gloomy look.
After all, Taoist Xuantian asked himself that since he came to Jiuzhou Continent, apart from secretly killing a few disciples of "Guimingyin Mountain", he had never had any enemies, and the number of times he had taken action was pitiful.
Even the traces of the battle in the Lin family residence have been completely wiped out by it, so it stands to reason that no flaws will be left.
Besides, the "black-faced impermanence"'s attention is bound to be attracted by the "Spirit Infant Fruit". Even if he notices any clues, he won't have any time to distract him!
After all, compared with the great opportunity to break through the Nascent Soul stage, the lives of several disciples in Guimingyin Mountain are simply not worth mentioning.
But besides the monks from Guimingyin Mountain, who else could be there?
Thinking of this, Qin Tian couldn't help but frown slightly, and his heart was filled with doubts.
.....................................
It was late at night, and the Wangyue Fairy City, the capital of Liangzhou, was still brightly lit and bustling with activity.
On a secluded street in the outer city, Qin Tian's appearance changed again, turning into a middle-aged man with a beard, and a wine gourd hanging on his waist, giving him a bohemian look.
At this moment, he seemed to have a leisurely look on his face, walking slowly with his hands behind his back, but the power of his spiritual consciousness was always alert to the surroundings, and any disturbance could not escape his ears and eyes.
But what is puzzling is that ever since he became alert that day, the person peeping in the dark has not appeared again, and seems to have disappeared.
In desperation, Qin Tian could only deliberately take a few detours and carefully explore the surroundings. After making sure that no one was following him, he came to a quiet and elegant courtyard.
As the early warning ban was triggered, the courtyard door was slowly opened, and a female cultivator wearing an apricot yellow dress, with a pretty face, picturesque eyebrows, delicate facial features, and a vague sense of agility came out.
Judging from the strong aura it exudes, it has clearly reached the realm of fake elixirs.
After arriving at the scene, the female cultivator asked in confusion:
"What important business does this fellow Taoist come here for?"
After hearing this, Qin Tian couldn't help but slightly cupped his hands and said in a calm tone:
"The poor Taoist Tianxuan Sanren, in response to the invitation of fellow Taoist Xing Guang, came here specifically to complete the transaction!"
The female cultivator opposite was stunned when she heard this, and couldn't help but look a little suspicious.
After all, Qin Tian's attire of a burly man with a wine gourd hanging around his waist was somewhat inconsistent with the rumored image of an alchemy master with an air of immortality.
At this moment, Xu Shi noticed the movement outside the door. Footsteps were heard again in the courtyard, and then the thin Taoist Xing Guang stepped out.
Seeing Qin Tian dressed up like this and possessing the secret skill of spiritual eyes, his eyes couldn't help but flash with a gleam of light, but he was sensible enough not to ask any more questions. Instead, he politely raised his hands and saluted:
"I haven't seen you for many days, but Taoist Taoist Tianxuan is still as charming as ever! This is my granddaughter Caixia. If I was rude and rude just now, I hope you can forgive me!"
Qin Tian also bowed humbly when he heard this, without any airs of an alchemy master.
Taoist Xing Guang raised his head slightly, carefully looked around, and then directly called everyone in, opening all the restrictions outside the courtyard.
After the two parties were seated in the lobby, Taoist Xing Guang showed a slightly solemn expression, and suddenly said coldly:
"Did Fellow Taoist Tianxuan encounter some kind of trouble?"
Hearing this, Qin Tian couldn't help but nodded with a wry smile, and then said helplessly:
"To be honest, Pindao was caught unawares for a moment and was already being targeted!"
As he spoke, he knew that Taoist Xing Guang across from him had the secret skill of spiritual eyes and could see through the disguise of Qianhuan Mask, so Qin Tian simply raised his hand and waved out a thick white mist, and after a moment he returned to his true appearance.
Just at this moment, the female cultivator named Caixia slowly walked in with the brewed spiritual tea in hand and a sandalwood tray.
However, seeing Qin Tian's true appearance, his expression could not help but be filled with shock, and he almost froze in place.
After all, such a young alchemy master is rarely seen even in the Jiuzhou Continent. He is completely inconsistent with the image of those old alchemists in rumors!
Fortunately, Taoist Xing Guang, who was at the top, quickly noticed the abnormality, coughed lightly to cover up his embarrassment, and urged in a slightly stern tone:
"You stinky girl, why are you so dazed? Why don't you serve tea to your distinguished guest!"
