to provoke himFang Yu stood still, watching the rapidly aging Yuliu Zhenren, expressionless.Most people embark on the path of cultivation for one of two reasons: to gain immense power or to prolong th...He didn't know if Fang Yu and Han Miaoyi beside him had a way to escape.

No matter what happens to those two, he's definitely going to be in trouble!

Even if Fang Yu could protect him for a while, he couldn't protect him forever. Sooner or later, he would be finished, and the entire Bai Yan Sect... would be finished too!

At this point, Zuo Yang already regretted his actions.

He shouldn't have brought Fang Yu to the Nian family, or... he shouldn't have followed them into here!

He had already guessed the origins of those guards, yet he still followed them in!

This is his fault!

My heart has sunk to the bottom of the valley.

"So I go with you, and this won't be exposed" Fang Yu smiled and asked.

Seeing Fang Yu still able to laugh, Bai Mei's eyes twitched slightly as she said, "That depends on the young lady's mood."

"Alright, then I'll go with you." Fang Yu nodded.

Han Miao also got up.

"The lady only wishes to see you." Bai Mei said.

"No problem, you sit down," Fang Yu said to Han Miaoyin.

Although Han Miaoyi really wanted to go with them, she could only sit down.

……

Fang Yu followed Bai Mei, going around the back of the seats and then taking a staircase up.

"The second level still has private rooms, but they are disguised as walls."

As you step onto the stairs, you arrive on the second floor.

He turned and glanced at Fang Yu, saying nothing.

What he had to say was all in his eyes.

This is laden with warnings.

Then, Bai Mei pushed the door open.

Fang Yu walked in and immediately saw the girl in front of him.

Dressed in a fiery red gown, her appearance was as exquisite and beautiful as a porcelain doll, her bearing that of a princess.

"You're finally here, Xiaohēi," the girl said with a smile.

"Little Black"

Fang Yu was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that it was because his skin looked slightly darker after being disguised.

But, he had never met this girl before, and yet she had already given him a nickname.

"Come, come, come. Sit down first. I have a few questions to ask you," the girl gestured for Fang Yu to sit in the seat in front of her.

Fang Yu glanced at Bai Mei.

Bai Mei had returned to the girl's side, saying nothing.

Fang Yu nodded and sat down in the position the girl indicated.

"Little Hei, how dare you be so bold There are so many guards outside. You snuck into the venue disguised, that's already daring enough, why would you even reveal yourself" The girl asked with a smile.

"I didn't expect there to be a private room upstairs." Fang Yu replied.

"Then you shouldn't have revealed yourself. You should have hidden and done what you wanted to do, then hidden again when you were finished. That way, everything would be perfect." the girl said.

Listening to the girl's words, Fang Yu frowned slightly.

What does it mean that this girl brought him here

Just casual chatting

"Who are you" Fang Yu pondered for a moment, then asked.

As soon as these words were spoken, the white-browed man beside him shifted his gaze slightly.

But he still didn't speak.

"Well... I think... you can call me Little Carp." The girl tapped her chin thoughtfully for a moment before answering.

"Little Carp I'm asking for your real name," Fang Yu said.

"Whatever, I'm just going to call her Little Fish." the girl said petulantly. "Little Black, what are you sneaking around here for Aren't you trying to kill me"

"Kill you I don't even know who you are, why would I kill you" Fang Yu retorted.

"Then what brings you in here" asked the little fish, with wide eyes.

"Isn't there an auction being held today I just wanted to come and participate," Fang Yu said, "But I didn't know that today's auction required invitations to enter. I don't want to leave just like that, so I can only sneak in."

Three days ago, the Ling Auction House notified the entire martial arts world, stating that only those with an invitation could attend this auction. How could you not know Little Fish blinked and asked.

"I just came out of a remote mountain village not long ago," Fang Yu said at this time, recalling the persona he had thought about before. "The female cultivator traveling with me is my sister, and the male cultivator is a distant relative from Wuzhou."

"Oh You're still from the mountains" The little fish laughed. "No wonder you're so dark. But how could someone from a remote mountain village think of coming to an auction Things here are very expensive, you know."

"My uncle said he'd take my sister and me out to broaden our horizons, so I came along," Fang Yu replied.

"But you two came from a mountain village. Why are you so skilled in magic After hiding, you even managed to avoid the guards and my sight, as well as Bai Mei's..." Xiao Liyu looked astonished.

The questions from Xiaoliyu all expose Fang Yu's fabricated "persona."

And Fang Yu, in fact, also knew that what he said didn't hold water and was full of loopholes.

But the little fish clearly didn't mean to expose him, but rather was teasing him for amusement.

Since that's the case, Fang Yu was also happy to talk nonsense.

To my shame, when my siblings and I were young in the mountains, we met a hermit monk. He said we had great potential and taught us some spells, mostly body techniques… It wasn't until we grew up that we learned the monk was actually a notorious thief king from the Southern Wasteland!

"Our invisibility magic, we learned it from him... It's a pity that my sister and I are limited by our talents, so we only mastered this much. There is no hope in the mountain village... So we thought of coming to Wu Zhou City to seek refuge with relatives. We just arrived a few days ago, wanting to broaden our horizons, but we were caught by you..."

As he spoke, Fang Yu let out a sigh and shook his head. His dark face was full of bitterness, mixed with the helplessness and sorrow of a life of hardship.

But in this situation, the little fish let out a silvery peal of laughter.

"Bai Mei, I told you so, he must be very interesting! Hahaha..." The little carp was so happy that her two legs were stomping around.

This kind of reaction couldn't help but make Fang Yu, who was seriously acting, feel a little embarrassed. He touched his nose.

"Little Fish, I know you must be very important. Please give me a chance to go back and continue the auction. I've never seen anything so valuable..." But putting on a show meant going all the way, Fang Yu still gritted his teeth and continued acting.

"Little Hei, if there's something you like, just tell me, I'll buy it for you!" the little fish said seriously after smiling.

"Huh" Fang Yu was taken aback.

"I feel sorry for your story, so I want to give you something. Don't you want it" said the little fish.

"Um... My master taught me that I can't just accept gifts freely, and I should also repay them..." Fang Yu said.

"That's right! I'll give you something, and then you repay me!" The little fish slapped his thigh and stood up, walking towards Fang Yu.

This action caused Bai Mei's brow to furrow slightly.

And Fang Yu's eyes twitched slightly.

This white-browed man didn't radiate any aura of cultivation, but standing there, he exuded immense pressure.

It's obvious that Bai Mei couldn't be an ordinary cultivator; her strength must be extremely powerful.f frigid air… Fang Yu did not feel a trace of burning erosion."Holy judgment, to judge your companions to their end, truly just, admirable, admirable." Fang Yu came before the Ten-winged Divine Messen...
