Chapter 53: So What if I Steal Your Prize
The people of the Demon Region were very eccentric. If they did not get the treasure they wanted, they would start a fight. It would probably affect a lot of people. Thinking of this, Fan Baohua decided to seal off the news channels of the northernmost land.
However, he did not expect the people of the Demon Region to be so powerful and still receive the news. He did not expect that the Saintess would actually come uninvited.
He could only bite the bullet and say, “I did not know that the Saintess had graced us with her presence. I have failed to welcome you.”
The woman smiled sweetly and exhaled like an orchid. “What you said is not true at all. You deserve to be punished.”
It was clearly a flirtatious remark, but suddenly, a wave of pressure surged and ruthlessly pressed down on Fan Baohua’s head. Even though fan Baohua’s strength was not ordinary, he was already drenched in sweat.
He knew in his heart that it must be because he had angered the Saintess by blocking the news.
As expected, in the next second, the woman approached him. The eyes outside the gauze were bright and loving, but it was as if there was a hook hidden in them that could seduce one’s soul.
“Manager Fan, you blocked the news of the northernmost land and didn’t let us know about the existence of such a supreme treasure. What exactly are your intentions?”
Fan Baohua raised his head and happened to meet this pair of peach blossom eyes that were filled with charm.
“Perhaps it was my subordinate’s mistake. I am willing to apologize.”
The woman smiled charmingly and nodded her head with satisfaction. The bell in her hand suddenly began to shake. It was as if a demonic sound was ringing in his ears and invading his mind.
“Since it is an apology, then there must be sincerity. I think that Flawless quality pill is not bad. Why not –”
Fan Baohua’s pupils dilated, and his expression gradually became dull. He subconsciously opened his mouth and said, “Then, let’s do as the Saintess...”
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by another crisp female voice. “Mei Qianmeng, don’t go too far!”
Fan Baohua’s body suddenly trembled. Only then did he realize that he had fallen into the trap. A burst of cold sweat broke out. It took a lot of effort for him to move his gaze away and not stare into those eyes.
Seeing that her good deed had been interrupted, a sharp light flashed through Mei Qianmeng’s eyes. She suddenly smiled and said, “I was wondering who it was. So you’re here too. I wonder if the Alchemy Emperor has been well recently?”
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. Even the Alchemy Emperor had come!
“There were rumors that the Alchemy Emperor would also come. I didn’t expect it to be true.”
There were also many people with mysterious identities on the fifth floor. Because they did not want to be known, they would use special methods to get to the floor. In addition, there was a private room that was isolated from spiritual sense detection. Therefore, the people on the lower floor did not know who they were.
“It seems that the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce’s auction this time is really special. So many important figures have arrived.”
“If the Alchemy Emperor obtains it, it’s indeed worthy of his name. I heard that he has always wanted to refine a Flawless pill. I wonder if he can use this opportunity to explore the mysteries of divine medicine.”
The light in Mei Qianmeng’s eyes flickered.
“Previously, when my Master went to ask for medicine, he was rejected by the Alchemy Emperor on the grounds that his body was unwell. Presumably, his illness is now incurable, and he can’t even get out of bed and walk.”
It was hard to imagine that such vicious words would come out of such a delicate and seductive mouth. Her sweet voice was like honey mixed in, but it also contained an undetectable danger.
Baizhi was instantly infuriated. “Witch! How dare you curse my Master!”
Mei Qianmeng’s laughter spread throughout the entire venue. It could be said that she was extremely seductive. Many people who were not able to maintain their composure flushed red in the face. She pretended to be surprised and said, “Could it be that I was right and you became angry out of embarrassment?”
As soon as she said that, the red gauze rushed over like a long snake. No one had expected that Mei Qianmeng would be so bold as to attack in the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce.
Just as Baizhi was about to attack, she was stopped by Lu Haoxuan.
“Master, why are you stopping me?”
Lu Haoxuan shook his head and said, “Don’t make things more complicated.”
He waved his hand, and an invisible spiritual power covered the outer layer of the box. It looked gentle and harmless, but in fact, it could accommodate all rivers.
The red veil separated at the touch and suddenly fell back into Mei Qianmeng’s hand. Her eyes were not surprised, as if she had expected this result. Then, she stopped pestering him and looked at the sixth floor.
“Young Master, do you want to reconsider? My treasure is not inferior to yours. Why are you in such a hurry to make a decision?”
Gu Xi was surprised. He never thought that she would try to secure him.
“Perhaps I will be more suitable for Young Master’s appetite.”
With that said, the bell in her hand rang. An inexplicable powerful force filled the surroundings. The tyrannical aura within made many people’s faces turn pale. Even Fan Baohua was no exception. He was secretly unlucky to have offended this fiend.
Many people felt dizzy. They felt as if they were in a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. In the sea of blood, countless skeletons floated in it. A crescent moon slowly rose, appearing bright and clear.
However, there were mountains of corpses around them. One side was ferocious and evil, while the other side was full of holiness. The contrast was more and more obvious, but it was full of weirdness. The moonlight illuminated the sea of blood, everyone suddenly saw their own faces in it.
“What do you think, Young Master?”
The strange thing was that Mei Qianmeng was still down there, but her voice seemed to be very close to Gu Xi. Gu Xi came back to her senses and was amazed by her unpredictable means.
Lu Haoxuan frowned slightly. Baizhi, who was next to him, looked a little serious. “Master, this woman wants to steal his heart!”
There were very few people who were in a clear state of mind.
Most of them looked frightened and twisted as if they were being haunted by a nightmare. Their eyes were fixed on the void, but the huge Chamber of Commerce was terrifyingly quiet.
A faint medicinal fragrance floated out of a private room on the fifth floor, and many people’s eyes turned from cloudy to clear.
“Saintess, enough is enough.”
The voice that appeared this time was extremely old, but it carried a pressure that could not be ignored.
Mei Qianmeng curled her lips. She did not show any fear even when facing Lu Haoxuan. She said unceremoniously, “Even the person in charge did not speak. Could it be that the Alchemy Emperor wants to use his power to oppress a weak woman like me?”
When everyone present heard this, their expressions immediately became complicated. Mei Qianmeng was a weak woman? It was simply a big joke
