"She stole something! I actually found three Spirit Crystals under her bed! She claims she doesn't know where they came from? Elder An, don't you find this laughable?"
Zhu Biyun was aggressive, with anger in her eyes. Stealing things at the Bell Tower — once exposed, Guanghan Hall wouldn't even care.
It might even implicate them.
"Yu Niang, how could you do this? I've told you countless times, now that you're working here, you must keep your hands clean. Offending a powerful figure — forget about you — even I, even our Guanghan Hall, won't be able to protect you!"
"Those things were my gift to her, is that okay?"
Xu Guang's voice came from behind, his body emitting an unrestrained horizontal pressure.
That aura almost pressed Zhu Biyun and the old woman so much that they couldn't straighten their backs.
"Senior..."
Zhu Biyun's eyes showed fear.
Such powerful momentum, even the senior sister, couldn't compare to the person in front of her.
Who is this person?
She had a good memory, Guanghan Hall had almost memorized all the masters entering recently and their portraits, but none could match the man in front of her.
Xu Guang's face was indifferent, he spoke again, "I said, those were my gifts to her, is that okay?"
Zhu Biyun's expression stiffened.
The old woman forced herself to stand, whispering, "Yes, senior, you are a high person, you can do whatever you want."
Her face carried a flattering smile.
Xu Guang didn't even look at this person. Though she seemed to be close to Chun Yuniang, when Zhu Biyun accused Chun Yuniang, she didn't even consider if those Spirit Crystals really belonged to Chun Yuniang.
He remained indifferent, glancing at them, "Scram, as long as I'm staying here, she is my person, understand?"
"Understood, understood, junior understands."
Even though the man before them appeared younger than Zhu Biyun, both Zhu Biyun and the old woman nodded and bowed.
Once they left, Xu Guang glanced at Chun Yuniang and turned back to the room.
In his eyes, this was just an episode.
Privately placing the three Spirit Crystals in Chun Yuniang's bundle, he originally thought he and Chun Yuniang were even, but did not expect to bring her trouble.
He had no choice but to personally intervene.
Chun Yuniang followed him back to the room.
"Brother Guang, you... what exactly is your relationship with my sister?"
She originally thought Xu Guang would be her sister's patron, but Xu Guang's cultivation was obviously not of the younger generation. Even if he were truly so young, such a young prodigy comparable to the senior sister of the sect would unlikely look at her sister the same way.
Thinking back to past events, Xu Guang felt somewhat helpless, "She was kind to me. Since she is gone, consider this a thank-you gift to her."
Chun Yuniang bit her lip tightly, saying nothing, only making a slight bow.
"Thank you, senior."
Then she turned and left.
Xu Guang was slightly surprised, he had thought this girl would cling to him because of what happened before.
But didn't expect...
So decisive.
It seems she understood his attitude.
He was only repaying Chun Niang's kindness, the three Spirit Crystals were enough.
He put this episode behind him.
Xu Guang took out the previously shrunken bronze fragment, carefully examining it in his hands.
Jiang Zi Yun once said, this recorded on it is the Immortal Seal, one Immortal Seal is a Secret Technique. Now that he is also a Qi Refiner, maybe he could master this technique.
One day later.
Having seen General Wei from outside, Xu Guang was about to return to his room.
Chun Yuniang suddenly came forward, whispering.
"Senior, these past few days many people from Zouchuan Dao Longmen seem to have come to the tower, they appear to be looking for someone."
Xu Guang's face tightened.
"Has nothing to do with me, don't worry."
Chun Yuniang sighed in relief, then quickly left.
Xu Guang stood there, thinking for a while, then calmly walked into the sixth floor. Today was the auction's opening time.
He still wanted to obtain that Golden Core Pill Formula Fragment, as for whether the Dragon Gate people were searching for him, it didn't matter.
Ah Wei had scouted outside the city in advance. If he found a Fourth Grade, he would turn and flee. If it were only a Fifth Grade...
Then he and Ah Wei would give these people a surprise.
The auction venue was bustling, and though it hadn't started, quite a number of big figures had already arrived one after another.
They were all renowned Zhenren masters from various places, most here for that Desert Smoke Body Secret Technique at the end.
In truth, everyone knew that a Secret Technique corresponding to such a special physique was very unlikely to be cultivable, but most of them, having spent too much time at the Third Shedding True Realm, even the smallest inspiration this Secret Technique might offer was worth bankrupting themselves to obtain.
What they spent today, waiting for a breakthrough to the Fourth Grade in the future, would merely be riches scattered but would return anew.
