The woman in the purple skirt put away the bottle of elixir on the table, and then looked at Xiao Zhan with a smile:
"Juniors are no longer polite to seniors."
Saying that, the woman in the purple skirt took the initiative to introduce herself:
"My father, Zichen, is the current owner of the Thirty-Three Treasures Building. The little girl's name is Zixuan."
Zixuan said and looked at the old woman sitting next to her:
"This is Elder Mei from our Thirty-Three Treasures Tower, and he is also my teacher."
Elder Mei looked at Xiao Zhan with a smile:
"Your Excellency, just call me Meiyun."
Xiao Zhan cupped his hands and clasped his fists, and then reported his name: "My name is Xiao Zhan."
"Hello, Elder Xiao," Zixuan smiled and took out a purple hexagonal jade plaque and respectfully handed it to Xiao Zhan:
"Elder Xiao, this is the VIP card of our Thirty-Three Treasures Building. No matter which store you are in, as long as you need it, our Thirty-Three Treasures Building will do our best to serve you."
Elder Mei Yun also nodded:
"Our Thirty-Three Treasures Pavilion and the Danding Alliance have been working closely together since ancient times."
Xiao Zhan put away the purple VIP sign from the Thirty-Three Treasures Tower, then stood up and said:
"Then I'll take my leave now and see you another day."
Elders Zixuan and Mei Yun enthusiastically sent Xiao Zhan to the door. Only when Xiao Zhan was no longer visible did Mei Yun take out the jade token of communication and verify Xiao Zhan's identity with the Alchemy Alliance.
After receiving the exact answer, Elder Mei Yun immediately looked at Zixuan with a smile:
"It's been many, many years since I've seen such an amazing and talented young man as Xiao Zhan."
"Zixuan, if you want to get rid of the marriage arranged by the host, I think you can ask Xiao Zhan for help."
A blush flashed across Zixuan's face, but she didn't refute.
Xiao Zhan stayed in an inn only two streets away from Thirty-Three Treasures Building.
After setting up a formation to isolate perception in the room, Xiao Zhan sent a message to his master and asked about the battle between the ancient gods.
But for some unknown reason, Xiao Zhan never received a reply.
The master's own strength was unpredictable, so Xiao Zhan naturally did not worry about his safety. He started practicing immediately without receiving a reply.
A few days later, Xiao Zhan suddenly received a message from Thirty-Three Treasures Tower, asking him to go there.
When Xiao Zhan walked into Thirty-Three Treasures Building, he found that there were no customers in the shop.
The dozen or so women who usually greet guests are not here at this time. Only Zixuan and Elder Meiyun are drinking tea.
Seeing Xiao Zhan arrive, both of them smiled and said hello to Xiao Zhan.
After Xiao Zhan sat down, Zixuan poured a cup of tea for Xiao Zhan herself, and then said softly:
"Senior Brother Xiao."
"Our Thirty-Three Treasures Building has a large-scale auction recently. I wonder if you are interested."
Xiao Zhan picked up the tea cup and took a sip before shaking his head and saying:
"I'm not interested in auctions. After all, I don't have anything I need."
Hearing this, a flash of disappointment flashed across Zixuan's face, and she didn't know how to continue this topic for a while.
Elder Mei Yun took over the topic with a smile:
"Elder Xiao, this auction will be held in a branch of our Thirty-Three Treasures Building. Many people from powerful forces will participate, and among the items being auctioned, there will also be a batch of high-end elixirs from the Alchemy Cauldron Alliance."
Xiao Zhan frowned slightly: "What do you mean?".Ь.
Elder Mei Yun smiled and explained:
"Although the Alchemy Alliance mainly focuses on alchemy, it also needs a lot of other materials."
"Our Thirty-Three Treasures Pavilion has in-depth cooperation with the Alchemy Alliance. Every time there is a large-scale auction, we will communicate with the Alchemy Alliance in advance and help the Alchemy Alliance auction some elixirs."
"And the Alchemy Alliance will send people to sit down every time to show that there is no problem with the origin of the elixir, and to bring the materials needed by the Alchemy Alliance back to the Alchemy Alliance."
"Originally, an elder named Qing Xuanzi was coming, but something happened and he couldn't come, so he listened to what I said.
Elder Xiao, you are here, so I ask you to participate on his behalf. "
As soon as Elder Mei Yun finished speaking, Xiao Zhan received a message from Qing Xuanzi.
Sure enough, Qing Xuanzi was talking about the auction held by the Thirty-Three Treasures Building.
Since the matter is true, Xiao Zhan, as the elder of the Alchemy Alliance, will naturally not refuse.
He nodded, looked at Mei Yun and said:
"Have the elixirs that need to be auctioned from the Alchemy Alliance been delivered?"
Elder Mei Yun shook her head:
"Elder Qingxuanzi couldn't come, so he asked a few disciples from the Alchemy Alliance to send them over. We should be able to arrive before tomorrow."
Xiao Zhan nodded lightly, put down his teacup and stood up, saying:
"Then I'll go back to the inn first and come over tomorrow."
Elders Zixuan and Meiyun nodded.
The second day.
Xiao Zhan arrived at Thirty-Three Treasures Tower on time.
But Zixuan and Meiyun's faces were not very good-looking.
Without waiting for Xiao Zhan to ask, Zixuan took the initiative and said:
"Elder Xiao, we just received news that the disciple who sent the pill from the Alchemy Cauldron Alliance met with an accident, and now the pill has disappeared!"
Xiao Zhan frowned:
"How are people?"
Zixuan shook her head and said apologetically:
"The Alchemy Alliance sent a total of five disciples to deliver the elixirs. After these five disciples were summoned, the teacher and I went over to provide support immediately. However, by the time we arrived, they had all died."
Xiao Zhan's face turned cold:
"Why did you inform me now?"
Mei Yun sighed, her old face full of guilt:
"Elder Xiao, I made a mistake in my judgment on this matter. I thought I could save the five of them."
Xiao Zhan waved his hands and said expressionlessly:
"The disciples of the Alchemy Alliance are all the best among the best. In the final analysis, you are not to blame for this matter."
"Now I just want to know who is the murderer who killed people and stole the pills!"
Zixuan shook her head:
"We are already checking, but there is no news yet."
Xiao Zhan nodded, and just as he was about to speak, the query jade talisman suddenly lit up. .Ь.
It was a summons from Qing Xuanzi.
After some communication, Xiao Zhan looked at Zixuan and said:
"You should investigate this matter as soon as possible. Also, give me a list of the elixirs to be auctioned this time. I will refine the elixirs to be auctioned first. This is the top priority."
Zixuan nodded and immediately handed the list to Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan glanced at it, his face expressionless.
There are more than 300 kinds of elixirs in total, most of them are sixth- and seventh-grade elixirs, and there are also some eighth-grade elixirs, ranging from dozens to tens of thousands.
Xiao Zhan didn't waste any time and asked Zixuan to arrange a room for him.
In just a moment, Xiao Zhan arranged formations in the room to isolate all perceptions, and then began to refine these elixirs as quickly as possible.
Three days passed quickly.
Elders Zixuan and Mei Yun stood at the door of Xiao Zhan's alchemy room with solemn expressions.
Just when the two of them were hesitating whether to knock on the door, the door was suddenly opened by Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan's aura was weak and his face was a little haggard. He directly handed a storage ring to Zixuan.
Zixuan's thoughts were focused on the storage ring, and she was stunned on the spot.
You must know that the main reason why every big auction of the Thirty-Three Treasures Tower attracts so many powerful forces is that the Alchemy Cauldron Alliance wants to sell a large number of pills.
These elixirs are extremely valuable resources for any force.
Zixuan was mentally prepared for the theft of the elixir this time, but she did not expect that in just three days, such a huge amount of elixirs could be refined by Xiao Zhan alone!
Even if it were any other elder of the Alchemy Cauldron Alliance, it would be impossible for him to have such a terrifying speed in refining alchemy, right?
What's more, Zixuan has handled countless elixirs, and it can be seen at a glance that the effects of this batch of elixirs refined by Xiao Zhan are 20 to 30% stronger than normal!
For a moment, Zixuan looked at Xiao Zhan with eyes filled with respect.
She had to admit that among the peers she had met, no one could compare with Xiao Zhan so far.
Xiao Zhan asked expressionlessly at this time:
"Has the murderer been found?"
Zixuan opened her red lips lightly and was about to answer immediately.
But Meiyun spoke first:
"It's been checked out."
"But it's tricky."
Before Xiao Zhan could ask, Mei Yun explained the matter clearly.
About twenty years ago, within a radius of 100,000 miles, a group of guys who specialized in robbing people suddenly appeared.
Almost all people from all forces within a radius of 100,000 miles have been attacked.
However, this group of people never provoked Thirty Three Treasures Tower.
This time it was probably because the five disciples of the Alchemy Alliance traveled in plain clothes and were murdered in the end.
The group's whereabouts are elusive and difficult to find.
In addition, the leader of the group was very powerful. In the past, even if there were forces who found the group and wanted to take revenge, the final result would be that they would be killed and their armor would be thrown away.
Of course, it would not be difficult for Thirty-Three Treasures Tower to seek revenge from this group of people.
The key is that the auction is about to be held and there is no time at all.
After listening, Xiao Zhan looked at Zixuan with a cold face:
"First find out the whereabouts of that group of people. After the auction is over, let them pay with their blood."
Zixuan and Meiyun nodded at the same time.
After a moment, the three people turned into a stream of light and flew out in the southwest direction at high speed, heading towards the branch where the auction was held.
This branch is in Liucheng.
Liucheng is huge, and the branch of Thirty-Three Treasures Tower here is also the largest trading company within a radius of hundreds of millions of miles.
Still a hundred miles away, Xiao Zhan saw a towering willow tree, covering most of the entire Willow City.
Mei Yun took the initiative and said:
"This giant willow tree is a relic from ancient times. It has already given birth to spiritual wisdom and is the patron saint of Willow City."
While talking, Mei Yun took the initiative to clasp her fists and salute the giant willow.
The branches of this giant willow tree fluttered, as if in response.
Not long after, Xiao Zhan, Zixuan and Mei Yun flew into the center of the city.
In front of the three people, there is a tall, vermilion building that towers into the clouds, has exquisite carved beams and painted beams.
The signboard of Thirty-Three Treasures Tower is dazzling and eye-catching.
Moreover, the entire high-rise building exudes extremely strong formation fluctuations, and powerful auras are scattered throughout the building. It is obviously guarded by experts.
However, at this time, the branch of Thirty-Three Treasures Building is preparing for the auction the day after tomorrow and is temporarily closed to the public.
A young man wearing a silver robe walked out with a smile and stood in front of Xiao Zhan and the others.
"Zixuan, Elder Meiyun."
After he greeted the two of them, his eyes fell on Xiao Zhan.
After taking a look at Xiao Zhan, he smiled and asked:
"Who is this junior brother?"
