Chapter 344 Conflict
"That's..." Wang Yan looked into the distance and realized immediately after seeing the iconic gray robe, "It's someone from the Wan Kui Sect."
Wanguimen is also one of the eight major sects, and its combat method is unique. Each disciple has his own natal puppet, and in addition there are other puppets to assist in combat, making it quite difficult to fight against them.
"Did you see the man in front? He is the most outstanding disciple of the younger generation of Wan Gui Sect - Demon Puppet Gui Li. It is said that his natal spirit puppet has been refined into a ninth-level spirit puppet, and its power is not weaker than that of a Nine Yuan Nirvana Realm or Nine Seal Heavenly Talisman Master."
...Gui Li is okay, but did Zhang Xiaofan from the neighboring Zhu Xian go to the wrong set?
Lin Changqiang suppressed his smile and looked in the direction Wang Yan was looking. He saw that behind the two old men, there was a young man with an indifferent expression standing straight. His face was a little gray, but his aura was not weak at all. It was obvious that he had laid a very solid foundation.
When he was looking at the young man in gray, the other party seemed to have noticed something. He looked at him indifferently with his eyes filled with gray. When he saw Qi Lei and others in front of him, he raised his eyebrows, put away his hostility, and nodded slightly. Seeing this, Lin Changqiang naturally responded.
The two old men in gray did not exchange greetings with Qi Lei and the others. They just bowed symbolically and then took their disciples into the city.
The group of people around who wanted to watch the fun were a little disappointed when they saw this, but then they became expectant again. Everyone understood that the calm was only temporary, and when the competition started, this group of young and energetic geniuses from the major sects would surely put on a grand show.
Under the leadership of Qi Lei and his three companions, the Dao Sect members settled in the western area of Yimo City. After instructing them not to act alone, they told them to move freely, just like the physical education teachers in their previous lives. They were not too worried. After all, no matter how mixed up Yimo City was, it would be nothing to the four people who had reached the great stage of Shengxuan realm.
The battle was imminent, and Lin Changqiang originally wanted to take a break and see if he wanted to participate in the lottery. However, before he even entered his room, Ying Huanhuan pulled him to go for a walk, and the reason was very good:
"Brother, as the commander of the competition, you don't want your sister to run into a Yuan Sect disciple and be bullied by them because she is outnumbered, right?"
Unable to resist (after enjoying) Ying Huanhuan's nagging, Lin Changqiang was secretly happy in his heart, but pretended to be helpless and followed her out. Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked out of the door, he ran into Ying Xiaoxiao and Wang Yan who were just about to go out with a few disciples.
When she saw her sister, Ying Huanhuan's eyes subconsciously dodged, not knowing where to look.
Ying Xiaoxiao glanced at her with a half-smile, then turned to Lin Changqiang and said, "Since we are all going out, why don't we go together? The treasure hunting area in Yimo City is pretty good. I think Junior Brother Changqiang will be interested."
"In that case, I'll trouble you, senior sister." Lin Changqiang nodded.
During the days when he was memorizing lessons at the martial arts academy, he naturally knew a lot about the Demon City.
The Demon City is close to the Demon Realm, and people often bring all kinds of rare items here to sell. A small number of them are useless, and most are in tatters, but some are too old and no one recognizes them or even knows how to use them. If someone has extraordinary knowledge, it's possible to get a big bargain.
Of course, if you want to find a bargain, you need not only vision, but also corresponding strength. A long time ago, someone was lucky enough to get a pure Yuan treasure. As a result, the seller was immediately unbalanced and wanted to regret it. The buyer naturally disagreed. The two sides fought and affected many people. In the end, both of them died and the treasure was snatched away by others...
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel excited, and pulled Ying Huanhuan to follow Wang Yan and others.
The treasure hunting area is located in the north of the Demon City and is extremely popular. As soon as the group approached, all kinds of chaotic noises came like a flood. Although the streets were relatively wide, they were still a bit crowded.
On both sides of the street, countless smooth and neat bluestones are lined up in order. A light shield is cast on the bluestones like a ball, and inside the ball there are human figures sitting cross-legged, with many rare things placed in front of them, making passers-by dazzled.
"The ancient martial art Chengying Fist is as powerful as the best spiritual martial arts, and it only costs eight million Nirvana Pills!"
"Resurrection Pill, a holy product for healing wounds. As long as the person is not dead, no matter how serious the injury is, it can keep him alive. Seven million Nirvana Pills!"
"Yin Yang Mixed Void Finger, Spiritual Treasure Boxing Gloves, of unknown grade, slightly damaged but very tough. After repair, it is very likely to be a top-grade Heavenly Grade Spiritual Treasure. It only costs three million Nirvana Pills!"
Countless loud and distinctive shouts were heard, making Ying Xiaoxiao and others laugh and cry. They were also attracted by the shouting at first, but they could not see through the objects directly like Lin Changqiang.
When he went forward to take a look, he found that the so-called ancient martial arts was just a medium-level spiritual martial arts. The elixir only had a domineering name, and the slightly damaged spiritual treasure was even more broken. He was immediately numb. However, Ying Huanhuan seemed to be very interested in this kind of occasion. She shuttled back and forth between the many stalls like a butterfly. No matter whether she bought it or not, she would definitely pick it up to take a look. Many sellers rolled their eyes, but they did not dare to say a word because of the identities of Lin Changqiang and others.
In the end, Ying Xiaoxiao couldn't stand it anymore and restrained the ponytail that was running around. Then the group ignored the surrounding stalls and walked deeper into the venue.
The sellers who can occupy the stalls in the deep areas are often of higher cultivation, and the things they sell are relatively normal. As one goes deeper, the number of vendors around is obviously decreasing, but some of the things sold sometimes make Lin Changqiang very happy.
Since he was not short of money, he would not be stingy as long as the price was right. He bought a lot of things along the way, including various materials for strengthening spiritual treasures, spiritual herbs with different uses, and some spiritual treasures that he could not use, intending to take them back for other people in the Lin family in the future.
But just as he was bargaining with the next stall owner, a familiar voice suddenly sounded not far away. Ying Xiaoxiao and Wang Yan from the nearby stalls hurried over, but before that, a figure had flashed past, bringing up gusts of breeze.
"You're not hurt, are you?"
When Lin Changqiang appeared beside Ying Huanhuan, there were three people in front of the girl, with their heads slightly raised and proud eyes. In their hands were thrown an emerald green hairpin, which turned out to be a heavenly spiritual treasure of the jewellery type.
"What's going on?" Ying Xiaoxiao and Wang Yan arrived shortly afterwards and frowned when they saw the badges on the chests of the three men. "Yuanmen?"
"Lin Changqiang, Wang Yan, Ying Xiaoxiao?!"
Seeing several people appear one after another, two of the Yuanmen disciples became alert immediately. Even the leader had an ugly look on his face and stopped throwing.
“Wang Yan, I thought you were expelled from Dao Sect. I didn’t expect you to dare to participate in the sect competition?”
Facing the other party's ridicule, Wang Yan's expression did not change at all. He just introduced him to Lin Changqiang as if no one was around: "This guy is called Jiang Tao, one of the Eight Spirit Generals of Yuan Sect. His strength is neither too strong nor too tough."
As soon as the words fell, Jiang Tao's face suddenly darkened. Ying Huanhuan, who was standing beside him, pulled Ying Xiaoxiao pitifully and complained: "Sister, I was obviously the one who saw this hairpin first, and we had already agreed on the price, but this bastard insisted on snatching it away!"
"Do you want me to do it directly, or do you want you to hand it over voluntarily?" Lin Changqiang looked at Jiang Tao expressionlessly. He knew that with the arrogance of the people of Yuanmen, they would definitely not choose the second option.
This is true.
Just like other sects, Dao Sect's palace examination rankings were no secret. Jiang Tao naturally knew about Lin Changqiang, a dark horse, not to mention that he was no match for Wang Yan.
"More than people, right?"
After finding a decent excuse for himself, he quickly threw it upwards. A brilliant ball of Yuanli light rose high into the sky, exploded and turned into white clouds and a black sun, which was the emblem representing the Yuan Sect.
But he didn't realize that Lin Changqiang had no intention of stopping him...
Thanks to "Qilingren" and "Qingfengyunyou@_@" for their monthly votes, and thanks to "Moeshang" for their continued support. I wish you three will not get acne on your face when eating spicy food, will not gain weight when eating meat, will have teeth whiter than porcelain teeth, and will have a stomach as healthy as Wolverine.
