Auction City.
Bright moon platform.
Yun Yan has been in seclusion since returning from the frozen snowy land. According to Zhu Liren's report, although Yun Yan is in seclusion, he is not afraid of being disturbed, and often has people send him some low-level magic weapons. This makes Su Xuan curious. .
"Has he always been like this?"
"Yes, Mr. Yun's demand for low-level magic weapons has been increasing recently. Sometimes he needs hundreds of pieces a day.
Although these things are not very valuable, they have consumed nearly ten million gold in the past few months. If this continues, it will have some impact on our auction house, because the supply of low-level magic weapons in the auction house is already somewhat stretched. . "
Zhu Liren reported to Su Xuan one by one Yun Yan's strange behavior after seclusion. At the same time, he also hoped that Su Xuan could go and see what Yun Yan was doing.
At this moment, Mu Ningshuang came to Mingyuetai to report to Su Xuan.
"Director Su, Tianque headquarters has sent someone to see you. I have already brought them to the front hall to wait."
"The people from Tianque haven't contacted us for a long time. Why did they suddenly send someone here? Is there something wrong with the amount of gold we handed over?"
Zhu Liren's first reaction was that the visitor to Tianque was not a good person. This was because the auction city did not have any other contact with the headquarters except for the regular annual supply.
But Su Xuan didn't think so, she just smiled lightly.
"You haven't met anyone yet, so don't make random guesses. Besides, we just handed over the yuan at the beginning of the year, so how can we say we haven't contacted each other for a long time.
Let's do this, Ningshuang, go ask Elder Fan to come and I'll be there shortly. "
"yes."
Mu Ningshuang left Mingyuetai after accepting the order, and Zhu Liren asked with some confusion.
"Why do we invite Fan Wenzhou? He is Tianque's spy. If he is present, wouldn't we be more passive?"
Su Xuan shook her head and replied.
"First of all, you shouldn't be so rude to Elder Fan. After all, he is still the elder of the headquarters. Secondly, he has another identity. I don't think you don't know it."
"The Executor of Tianque."
Zhu Liren said frankly that although he was unwilling to admit it, as Tianque's executor, Fan Wenzhou's strength had exceeded the sixth level of martial arts, which was why Tianque sent him to the auction city.
"Yes, then you should know his strength very well. There is no need for us to offend him. You should make arrangements as soon as possible."
Hearing this, Zhu Liren naturally understood what Su Xuan meant, but this feeling of groveling made him feel very disgusted. Of course, this disgust was completely directed at Tianque headquarters and Fan Wenzhou, because they were always the oppressed party.
A moment later, Su Xuan came to the reception hall. Another middle-aged man sitting on her equal footing was Fan Wenzhou. He had thick eyebrows and sharp eyes, and a calm aura. It was obvious that his strength had improved a lot.
After seeing Su Xuan, he said meaningfully.
"Master Su is doing well lately. Why do I feel that you are not in good spirits? Is it because there are too many troubles in the city recently, so you have lost a lot of them."
Su Xuan answered appropriately after hearing this.
"Thank you, Elder Fan, for your concern. There are indeed many affairs in the city. Fortunately, I have two deacons, Zhu and Chang, to take care of them. I am happy to have some leisure time.
But for some reason, I always have a strange feeling recently, as if something bad is about to happen, which makes me toss and turn and find it difficult to sleep. I hope I am over-worrying. "
Su Xuan's words sounded 30% true and 70% false, making it difficult for Fan Wenzhou to tell. Fortunately, he had already asked the person coming from Tianque beforehand.
So, he said with a smile.
"Of course Mr. Su is overly worried. No, Tianque has sent someone to bring you the good news."
Only then did Su Xuan turn her gaze to the Tianque envoy standing aside.
"I don't know what the headquarters has ordered, please tell me."
The envoy of Tianque replied respectfully.
"According to the order of the Lord, I declare that the three major forces under Tianque's rule and two
First of all, the Lord returned from traveling at night and found the executioners on his left and right. Therefore, the Lord sincerely invites everyone to go to the headquarters to watch the ceremony.
Second, Hu Lang, the original palace master of Lihu Palace of the Nine Provinces Alliance, has died. The Lord has ordered that in ten days, two elders, Long Xiaotian and Lu Ming, will preside over the election of a new palace master at the headquarters of Lihu Palace. All those under the banner of Tianque will be elected. All practitioners can participate. "
Hearing this, Su Xuan couldn't help but said curiously.
"The Lord has been missing for decades, and now he has finally returned. It's really gratifying. I wonder who the executioners he brought back are?"
Just listen to the reply from the Tianque messenger.
"Shi Xiaoyun, the envoy on the right, is the executor of the Lord, and Lan Yue, the envoy on the left, is the new executor of the Lord."
Fan Wenzhou said calmly upon hearing this.
"Shi Xiaoyun and Lan Yue, I have never heard of these two people. They must all come from the lower continent."
"I don't know about this subordinate. Ling Yu has been brought here and I will leave."
"Well, Manager Zhu, take the envoy down to rest."
"As commanded."
Zhu Liren immediately left the living room with the Tianque envoy, and Su Xuan said intentionally or unintentionally.
"This is what Elder Fan calls good news, but I'm not happy at all."
Fan Wenzhou has been in the auction city for seventeen years, so he knows Su Xuan's intentions very clearly.
"I'm talking about the second thing. Don't Director Su think this is a good opportunity?"
"What does Elder Fan mean?"
Su Xuan deliberately pretended to be confused, but everyone was smart, so Fan Wenzhou naturally understood Su Xuan's concerns.
So he was the first to express sincerity.
"I know what you are thinking, and I have been in the auction city for seventeen years. There are some things that I have not just heard about. I think you should know this very well."
Su Xuan will not reveal any flaws until she is sure of Fan Wenzhou's intentions.
"Of course, with Elder Fan's cultivation, we can't hide it even if we want to. But as long as I don't admit it, then these things have nothing to do with me, because you can't prove why they stayed in the auction. City."
Fan Wenzhou had already learned about Su Xuan's methods, and he also knew that he could not compete with Su Xuan in this regard. Therefore, he only wanted to achieve his own goal.
"Actually, you don't need to be so nervous. I don't want to use this to blackmail you. It's just that during the seventeen years of being stationed in the auction city, you showed me the bottom line that a person can stick to."
"so what?"
Su Xuan's tone was very soft, with a temperature that could melt ice and snow, and she began to test Fan Wenzhou's intentions.
"So I am not Tianque's spy to spy on you, and I can also see that you have changed."
"Have I changed?"
Fan Wenzhou nodded slightly and replied.
"You have changed since three years ago."
Only then did Su Xuan realize that what Fan Wenzhou wanted to say was not about Tianque, but she was always wary of Fan Wenzhou. After all, the other party had no reason to take such a big risk to say this.
But Su Xuan forgot one thing, that is, there will be exceptions to everything, and she herself is the premise for this exception to occur.
Therefore, Su Xuan said bluntly.
"Just say whatever you want."
Fan Wenzhou immediately smiled.
"Now is the best time for you to extend your power to the Kyushu Alliance, and the person who can do all this, I don't need to say more, you know who he is."
"Yes, he is indeed the most suitable candidate, but why are you telling me this?"
Regarding Su Xuan's doubts, Fan Wenzhou answered truthfully.
"Because I want you to know that this is a very dangerous thing. If your will is not strong enough, it is still too late to regret it."
However, Su Xuan changed the subject and her tone became a little cold.
"I'm asking what kind of role do you want to play?
Role. "
Fan Wenzhou still replied calmly.
"A bystander."
"How can I trust you?"
"You can kill me anytime, and I know you are capable of it."
Su Xuan looked at Fan Wenzhou with some surprise.
"How did you know?"
"My guess."
Realizing that Su Xuan didn't seem to believe what he said, Fan Wenzhou had no choice but to continue explaining.
"Yu Shixiong and I are old friends. Three hundred years ago, we practiced together for decades. Later, he broke through the Sword Emperor and joined Qian Ji Tower, and I was recommended to Bai Xingye by him.
It's funny to say that although I am willing to stay in Tianque because of Bai Xingye, so far, I have only met him once.
As for why I guessed that you were capable of killing me, it was because not long ago, you actually convinced Chu Qianji to protect Yun Yan. "
Su Xuan said calmly after hearing this.
"Maybe I used some other method. How can you be sure that I convinced Chu Qianji based on my cultivation."
Fan Wenzhou shook his head and replied.
"You may indeed have used other methods, but in front of Chu Qianji, your greatest advantage is useless, because Chu Qianji is a woman.
Therefore, I have reason to believe that in addition to your unparalleled appearance, you also have the ability to impress Chu Qianji.
To sum up, it is not surprising that you have the strength to defeat me and even surpass Bai Xingye. "
Hearing this, Su Xuan couldn't help but smile charmingly.
"I'm just saying that you are not that simple. At least your sense of smell is very sensitive, so I believe you for the time being. As for the Kyushu Alliance, I will discuss it with Mr. Yun."
"That's fine. Although fighting for the throne of Lihu Palace is extremely dangerous, the Kyushu Alliance is not monolithic. If you can handle it properly, Mr. Yun will not escape death."
Su Xuan understood what Fan Wenzhou meant, but Su Xuan had already been secretly investigating the secrets of the Kyushu Alliance. Now Fan Wenzhou's words only made her more certain of the results of her investigation.
"I didn't expect that just seventeen years could make a person change his original intention. Although this makes me a little surprised, I will still give you this opportunity.
As for Bai Xingye's return to Tianque and his attempt to show off his power to everyone, I have no interest in participating. Just say that I am unwell and in retreat. "
Seeing Su Xuan's determination, Fan Wenzhou had no choice but to nod and answer.
"In this case, I will explain it to the lord, but if you do this, it may be harmful to Mr. Yun's entry into the Lihu Palace. I hope you will think twice."
However, Su Xuan smiled lightly.
"Although I don't know Bai Xingye very well, I know very well who Long Xiaotian is. If I attend Bai Xingye's celebration banquet, it will really prevent me from intervening in Lihu Palace."
Only then did Fan Wenzhou understand Su Xuan's plan. He didn't expect that she was so clear about the internal situation of Tianque. It seemed that he had underestimated Su Xuan's ability.
Therefore, Fan Wenzhou couldn't help but said with emotion.
"I suddenly felt like I did the right thing."
Seeing this, Su Xuan turned around and walked out of the hall leisurely.
"I think so."
