Chapter 73

Lanos let out a startled cry, "That's right, that's right! I had that feeling before, I thought it was just an illusion caused by the howling moon wolf itself!"

"What you say makes me feel strange too..." Xuedang also nodded.

Shen Lang frowned slightly and said, "This matter is no small thing, you must not spread it. Don't mention it to anyone, especially Lanos. If you can't earn my trust, I might add something to your tea, you know I can do it."

Lanos broke into a cold sweat, "Young Master Shen, you're joking. I, Lanos, am not that kind of person. Rest assured, I will never reveal this matter."

"Let's hope so..." Shen Lang smiled indifferently.

Suddenly, a pair of hands reached out from the right, pinched Shen Lang's face, and pulled it hard to both sides.

"Stop it, don't mess around, let go..." Shen Lang slapped Xuedang's hands away.

"Hehe, ever since you had that dream, you've been acting strange and always leaving people hanging... I just wanted to see if you had changed your appearance or if some old monster had possessed you..."

Seeing the intimate scene, Shui Qingwu's eyes darkened, and she hurriedly used drinking tea to cover it up.

As the auction was about to end, the Giant Potion and its formula finally pushed the entire auction to its climax.

After being fiercely contested by multiple parties, the Giant Potion finally fell into the hands of Sima Yan from the Tayan Academy.

This old man probably wanted to take the Giant Potion back for research.

Unable to obtain the formula, he would settle for studying it and hopefully discover something.

It was said that the formula for the potion only required some common materials, and just this fact alone made this bottle of Giant Potion far more valuable than others that had appeared elsewhere.

As for the formula, in the intense competition among five Xuantie-level forces, the price was pushed to 250,000 low-grade spirit stones, a figure that made even Shen Lang's eyes widen. And it ultimately fell into the hands of Yao Chengjie, the young master of the Holy Light Sect!

Indeed, fate can be cruel...

Fortunately, Shen Lang's will was firm and his mind was calm. He was only slightly surprised before returning to normal.

If it were anyone else, the matter of the False Silver Eyes or the auction price of the formula would have driven them mad.

...

When Shen Lang came out of the private room, the entire hall's attention once again focused on him.

Xuedang deliberately pulled Shui Qingwu to stay in the private room, then whispered mysteriously, "Dare you go?"

Shui Qingwu's face showed a strange expression, and she said with a slight hint of interest, "If you dare to go, why shouldn't I?"

"What are you going to do?" Shen Lang turned around and said softly, "Go looking for trouble?"

His words were not baseless. He had known for a while that Xuedang came from the capital and had a very complex background.

Someone who could make the bigwigs of the Tayan Academy act like lackeys was certainly not a simple person.

At today's auction, Mo Liusheng dared to scold even Xuantie-level forces, but in front of Xuedang, he could only accept his fate after being humiliated...

As for Shui Qingwu, aside from other things, the fact that she could scare the complex-background Yin Kuang and his group into fleeing through a window clearly indicated that her background was no less impressive.

Hearing this, Xuedang and Shui Qingwu, one with her hands behind her back looking at the ceiling, the other smiling and drinking tea.

Shen Lang sighed and said softly, "I don't oppose pranks, just don't make things too big."

"Hehe! Got it!" Xuedang, getting his approval, happily sat down again.

At this moment, the people in the private rooms on the second floor all came out.

From the Holy Light Sect, Yao Chengjie glanced at Shen Lang with a haughty look and said in a strange tone, "I heard this reckless kid is called Shen Lang?"

"Yes, Young Master, this kid is called Shen Lang, from the Shen family in Tianfeng City," a young man beside him nodded and bowed.

"Very good, very good..." Yao Chengjie waved his hand, opened a folding fan, and fanned himself gracefully.

The faces of those below who were about to leave all changed. The young master's words were clearly a threat, and Shen Lang was indeed on someone's radar!

Poor guy, even if he was favored by the Treasure Pavilion for some reason, what could it do?

Being on the radar of a Xuantie-level force was no different from a death sentence... It might be hard to die even if he wanted to!

However, what surprised everyone was that Shen Lang did not speak, and his smile did not change.

He had already been insulted and taken advantage of, and doing it again seemed to have lost its flavor...

But his indifference did not mean others were indifferent. The silver-haired youth from the Xuandao Sect, with his extremely unusual appearance, suddenly pushed past the people from the Holy Light Sect and walked to the front, causing everyone who saw this to be stunned.

Yao Chengjie, who was pushed off balance, turned red with anger and shouted, "Mo Ge, are you doing this on purpose!"

The silver-haired youth, called "Mo Ge," did not even turn his head and coldly replied, "No."

Yao Chengjie's face improved a bit. He seemed to be a bit wary of this silver-haired youth and snorted, "I don't think you dare!"

Who knew that Mo Ge, who had just taken two steps, still said in the same cold, icy tone, "I did it on purpose."

"..." The people in the hall were stunned, then struggled to hold back their laughter, but many of them even shed tears, the scene was extremely bizarre.

"Mo Ge, don't be too arrogant! You'll regret it sooner or later!" a young man beside Yao Chengjie shouted.

"Idiot." Mo Ge did not even turn his head and said coldly.

The people from the Holy Light Sect were so angry they were fuming, but they only followed behind, muttering curses.

Shen Lang turned to look at the silver-haired youth and could not help but smile, "This kid is quite a character... By the way, where have I seen this guy before?"

Today's auction was destined to become the most extraordinary auction in Tianfeng City.

And the notorious waste of Tianfeng City, the way all forces and people looked at him, had completely changed.

For a time, many family and faction members hurriedly spread the news of his deeds at the Treasure Pavilion.

On the surface, Tianfeng City was as calm as an ancient well, but beneath it, the winds were stirring and the clouds were gathering.

"Everyone, please move aside..."

Mo Liusheng and Sima Yan quickly approached, one on each side, and dragged Shen Lang into a private room at the Tingfeng Winehouse as if they were kidnapping him.

And just as Shen Lang and the others were about to enter the Tingfeng Winehouse, a flash of killing intent flashed in Ye Xue's eyes, then she glanced at Tang Sheng beside her, and the two walked very tacitly to an empty corner.

"Uncle Tang, what do you think of this Shen Lang?" Ye Xue transmitted her thoughts.

Tang Sheng's eyes were filled with resentment, and he transmitted his thoughts, "Even with the spirit medicine given by the city lord, my son's legs were saved, but he can hardly make any significant progress in martial arts. I can't rest until this grudge is avenged!"

"But he has two old monsters from the Tayan Academy protecting him, and it seems the Treasure Pavilion is also trying to win him over..."

"This kid was originally a waste who couldn't cultivate. The matter of the Heavenly Pulse Sacred Body is absolutely not fake... It was personally identified by the president of the Tayan Academy! He can be noticed by the Tayan Academy, likely because he has some talent in professions like alchemy, but that's all. Strike while their relationship is not yet solid, and cover the identity of the killer well. The Tayan Academy and the Treasure Pavilion will not risk a conflict over a dead man!"

Ye Xue's lips curled, and she nodded slightly, transmitting her thoughts, "Very well, you decide how to handle it. Remember to do it cleanly, leave no traces, I don't want my father to blame me..."

The two smiled at each other and hurriedly left.

Poor Tang Sheng, a respected guard commander of the city lord's mansion, was being used by an 18-year-old girl. A simple word from her, and he was on a path of no return, yet he thought his great revenge was near...

Shen Lang, already sitting in the Tingfeng Winehouse, was not unaware of the various situations. On the contrary, he was well aware of the movements of various forces, including Ye Xue and the reaction of the Holy Light Sect.

But he did not take it to heart.

The Holy Light Sect and the Evil Wind Valley would naturally be dealt with by Xuedang. As for Ye Xue and the others...

Shen Lang himself wanted to start investigating the truth of the past. Even if they did not come to him, he would go to them.

But he was not idle at the moment.

Sima Yan was holding the bottle of Giant Potion and laughing non-stop...

Mo Liusheng was paying attention to both sides, sometimes looking at the Giant Potion and laughing foolishly, and sometimes staring at Shen Lang's actions for a long time. Shen Lang was currently making talismans!

On the table in front of him were talismans, cinnabar, and other materials, and he was concentrating and working tirelessly.

"Little Lang, why aren't you listening to us? This is no ordinary Giant Potion. This Giant Potion..."

"I'm listening, you've said it five times already. The Giant Potion is made with a unique method using very common herbs, turning the mundane into the miraculous. The formula is the one that fell into the hands of the Holy Light Sect... But what do you really want to do? Do you really want to study this thing? Are you sure you can discover anything with it?"

Shen Lang did not even look up, fiddling with the talismans and said leisurely.
