"Ten trillion and ten billion immortal stones, sold!"
The elder of Liusha Sect slamd the gavel down but couldn’t help wiping the sweat from his forehead.
Despite years of experience in auctioning, he had never presided over such a nerve-wracking bidding.
The Fla Dragon Holy Fruit had astonishingly sold for ten trillion immortal stones!
He still cast a doubtful glance at the mysterious figure—could this person truly produce ten trillion immortal stones?
Or was he rely bidding for the sake of rivalry?
"Here are fifteen trillion and six hundred eleven billion immortal stones."
Xiao Fan flung out a space ring, its interior piled high with immortal stones, resembling a towering mountain.
"These are your Billion-Year Flagrass and Fla Dragon Holy Fruit."
The elder of Liusha Sect respectfully handed over the two treasures.
Though this mysterious figure had yet to reveal his identity, from his casual expenditure of ten trillion immortal stones, it was clear he was no ordinary person—far wealthier than the elder of Liusha Sect.
Xiao Fan put away the two treasures.
To suppress Mr. Wan’s arrogance, he had inevitably drawn the crowd’s attention.
Moreover, judging by the hatred in Mr. Wan’s eyes, he would likely strike as soon as Xiao Fan left Yanxia City.
It seed Xiao Fan would have to slip away silently to avoid becoming embroiled in this ss.
Besides, Xiao Fan needed to head to Divine Fla Mountain to gather other dicinal herbs and couldn’t waste ti tangling with Mr. Wan.
"Once the auction ends, we’ll follow this man. I, Mr. Wan, will see exactly what he’s made of."
Mr. Wan’s face was ashen.
Never had anyone dared openly provoke him. This public humiliation warranted vengeance, and he was determined to restore his dignity.
After the auction concluded, Xiao Fan discreetly left the venue and vanished into the alleyways with a flicker of his body techniques.
Xiao Fan possessed the War Heaven Tyrant Body, and Lu Changsheng had taught him plenty of martial techniques and movent skills.
Before the other cultivators attending the auction could inquire into Xiao Fan’s origins, he had already disappeared without a trace.
Mr. Wan employed the Ancient Wan Clan’s exclusive tracking technique to pursue Xiao Fan, managing to stay barely within range.
"As expected, I’ve been tailed."
Seeing the Ancient Wan Clan cultivators tracking him, Xiao Fan imdiately devised ways to shake them off.
For experts at the Immortal Emperor Realm, Yanxia City was small enough for Divine Sense to cover everything, so Xiao Fan fled toward Divine Fla Mountain.
Divine Fla Mountain, where flas danced visibly through the air.
Xiao Fan activated a talisman, vanishing into thin air.
Through continuous spatial leaps, Xiao Fan erased his aura, making it harder for his pursuers to keep up.
After activating five talismans, Mr. Wan had completely lost track of Xiao Fan’s whereabouts.
"Young Master, we’ve lost him, it seems."
"Damn it! Now we have no idea who he is."
Mr. Wan clenched his fists in frustration, unwilling to accept defeat.
This adversary had publicly humiliated him at the auction and then vanished; now, even if he wanted revenge, he wouldn’t know where to start.
To make matters worse, the embarrassing events of the auction would likely spread across the territory, tarnishing the Wan Clan’s image.
Although the incident wasn’t particularly severe, it would undoubtedly bruise their reputation.
"It seems I’ve shaken them off."
Xiao Fan sensed the dozens of pursuing auras behind him vanish and knew he had successfully evaded Mr. Wan’s n.
"Hold on, there’s still one aura—weak, but unmistakeably a cultivator’s. This aura carries a faint scent... could it be...?"
Suddenly, Xiao Fan ca to a halt.
Nearby, the ancient trees rustled in the mountain breeze.
"If my guess is correct, you’ve co for the Fla Dragon Holy Fruit."
Xiao Fan didn’t struggle to deduce that the individual tailing him was none other than the black-robed figure who had sat beside him at the auction.
Sure enough, a black-robed man stepped out from behind an Ancient Sky Tree.
"I lack sufficient immortal stones to bid for the Fla Dragon Holy Fruit, but I am afflicted with a cold poison. I request to borrow the Fla Dragon Holy Fruit. In due ti, I shall repay you generously."
The black-robed man’s voice was aged—it was an old man.
Xiao Fan frowned slightly.
An unknown figure seeking to borrow an item worth ten trillion immortal stones—though Xiao Fan often perford charitable deeds, this request warranted considerable hesitation.
What if the person was rely coveting the Fla Dragon Holy Fruit and had fabricated a story to deceive him?
"How can I trust you?"
Xiao Fan was no naïve novice but a seasoned cultivator with ample experience.
"If you don’t believe , you can inspect my condition yourself. The cold poison in my heart’s core cannot be cured by anything other than the Fla Dragon Holy Fruit."
The black-robed man suppressed his aura, presenting himself for Xiao Fan’s examination without hesitation.
After so deliberation, Xiao Fan chose to assess the man’s injuries.
"I have so knowledge of various poisons..."
Xiao Fan placed his hand on the man’s chest, channeling spiritual energy, ready to detect the nature of the cold poison—only to pause in surprise.
Contrary to the sound of his voice, the black-robed man was no elderly figure.
"..." The black-robed man hadn’t expected Xiao Fan to inspect his heart directly but held back and said, "Focus on the injury."
"Forgive my boldness."
Xiao Fan carefully examined the heart’s core, finding it enveloped by a strange cold aura that had frozen his ridians and blood vessels.
The True Qi in his body had gathered around his heart, attempting to seal the cold aura.
Yet, the cold aura was overpowering, with tendrils of it leaking out gradually.
After prolonged exposure, the cold aura could potentially freeze all the ridians in his body.
"This is Profound Nether Poison. Young lady, how did you co to suffer from such a venomous affliction?"
Xiao Fan pulled back his hand, fully grasping the nature of the poison.
The other party had not lied—Profound Nether Poison could only be neutralized by the Fla Dragon Holy Fruit or other Pure Yang Fruits.
At least on the matter of the poisoning, she had spoken truthfully.
"This is sothing you’d best not know; otherwise, you may find yourself entangled."
"If you wish to borrow the redy, young lady, reveal your true identity. Only then can I know to whom I’m lending the Fla Dragon Holy Fruit—and to whom I should seek repaynt. Otherwise, I refuse."
