Jiang Chengxuan, along with his group, respectfully nodded to the female auctioneer.
However, the subsequent auction items failed to catch their interest.
There was no trace of the Celestial Flight Crystal.
This situation continued until the end of the auction.
Ignoring everyone’s stares, Jiang Chengxuan and his group left the auction hall and headed towards the outskirts of Moonlight City.
Since their enemies were already holding a grudge against them and sought to take back the Mystic Color Stone from them, Jiang Chengxuan decided to give them an opportunity.
After all, he was quite curious about how the Xu family had obtained the Mystic Color Stone in the first place.
He could use this opportunity to ask them properly.
Their departure from the auction hall did not go unnoticed and sparked much curiosity and speculation.
People couldn’t understand where Jiang Chengxuan and his group got such courage.
They had just offended the Xu family, and now they were choosing to leave Moonlight City.
Did they have a death wish?
Even the Xu family did not expect Jiang Chengxuan and his team to leave Moonlight City at this time.
They were even prepared to stay in Moonlight City for a long time.
In the end…
Xu Chuanping asked Xu Hailong, “Elder Hailong, those people actually chose to leave Moonlight City at this time. Should we…?”
He didn’t say the rest, but whether it was Xu Hailong or the others from the Xu family, they clearly understood the meaning behind his words.
Xu Hailong’s eyes were cold.
His gaze seemed to be able to penetrate the void and landed on Jiang Chengxuan and the other two who were flying out of Moonlight City. Suddenly, he said leisurely,
“Of course.
Since they are so eager to court death, why should we hesitate?
Once they leave Moonlight City, we’ll follow them.
I want to see what they’re up to.
I also want to know who has given them such audacity to challenge my Xu family.”
A moment later.
Jiang Chengxuan and the other two had already completely left the range of Moonlight City.
Not long after flying away, they clearly sensed several powerful auras rapidly pursuing them from behind.
Seeing this, Jiang Chengxuan and the others simply stopped and turned around.
Seeing Jiang Chengxuan’s group stop, Xu Hailong and his men, who were rapidly approaching, were momentarily taken aback, sensing something amiss.
However, since things had come to this, it was too late to stop now.
So, Xu Hailong and his group further accelerated their pace.
In no time, both parties were facing each other from a few hundred meters apart.
For Nascent Soul cultivators, this distance was negligible.
Xu Hailong and the Xu family cultivators around him prepared for battle, ready to confront Jiang Chengxuan’s group.
However, at this moment, Jiang Chengxuan spoke first.
“The Xu family, right?
Since you’ve come, it means that our previous encounter at the auction isn’t settled yet.
Let’s be straightforward. I have one question for you.
If you cooperate and answer, we can consider this matter resolved.
Otherwise, I’m afraid all of you here today will have to learn a harsh lesson.”
Jiang Chengxuan’s words left the Xu family cultivators dumbfounded.
What was happening?
They were the ones who initiated the confrontation, but now it seemed like Jiang Chengxuan was the one actively seeking trouble.
Moreover, the other party looked calm and confident. What was going on?
Did they really believe that just the three of them could stand against all of them?
Some of the cultivators who were watching from afar looked at each other in confusion.
Jiang Chengxuan’s words were just too bizarre.
Was he confident or simply arrogant?
Before the onlookers could ponder further, Xu Hailong’s expression suddenly turned cold.
“How arrogant!
I don’t know what you’re talking about, but I do know that our Xu family has lost a precious item.
Just now, a cultivator from the Xu family who is proficient in divination deduced that the thing that our Xu family lost is on you.
“Now, let me ask you, are you going to hand that thing over to us obediently, or do you want us to personally take it back from you?”
“Uh…”
Xu Hailong’s words caused the expressions of the distant onlookers to turn strange.
Indeed, this was the true style of the Xu family.
Even without any justification, they would create a reason.
Even if it meant making up lies or distorting facts, they always positioned themselves on the “righteous” side.
“Husband…”
Shen Ruyan suddenly turned to look at Jiang Chengxuan.
Honestly, she was quite disgusted by the Xu family’s behavior.
Facing such a person, no matter what you said, it would be useless.
Jiang Chengxuan also didn’t expect such a response from the Xu family.
He chuckled scornfully and nodded at Shen Ruyan.
“Since they’re courting death, there’s no need to be polite with them.”
