Start flat, cut off the wife of the five-star empress

A flame of challenge rose in Lu Yuan's heart. He took a deep breath and made up his mind: "Three million, two hundred and fifty thousand middle-grade spirit stones!"

A trace of admiration flashed in Master Po Tian's eyes, and he shouted again: "Three and a half million middle-grade spirit stones!"

Lu Yuan showed a determined expression on his face, and he shouted without hesitation: "Four million middle-grade spirit stones!"

The atmosphere on the scene was extremely tense, and the bidding between the two top monks shocked the entire auction site.

Every price increase is a challenge to each other's strength and an affirmation of one's own determination.

"Four million one hundred thousand middle-grade spirit stones!"

The voice of True Lord Potian sounded again.

Lu Yuan frowned. He knew that raising the price again would be risky, but he didn't want to give up easily.

He said firmly: "Four million two hundred and fifty thousand middle-grade spirit stones!"

Master Potian smiled slightly and looked at Lu Yuan, as if testing his determination and strength.

Finally, he announced: "Four million three hundred thousand middle-grade spirit stones!"

Lu Yuan's heartbeat quickened, and he felt everyone's eyes were focused on them.

He took a deep breath, stared at Master Potian with a firm gaze, and decided to win the auction.

"Four million three hundred and fifty thousand middle-grade spirit stones!"

Lu Yuan shouted out his final bid without hesitation.

True Lord Potian smiled slightly. After a moment of silence, he finally announced, "Congratulations to Thunder Fire Pill Pavilion for winning the seventh-grade peak blue sea crystal with 4.35 million middle-grade spirit stones!"

There was a sudden burst of deafening cheers at the scene, and Lu Yuan felt a surge of joy of victory in his heart.

After Lu Yuan left the auction, he still felt a vague sense of uneasiness in his heart.

He knew that someone was following him secretly, and it was from the Ghost Sect.

This made him very confused because he had no friendship with the Ghost Sect, let alone any disputes.

This sudden tracking behavior made Lu Yuan question the true intentions of the Ghost Sect.

In order to ensure his own safety, Lu Yuan decided to temporarily leave the crowd and find a quiet place to think.

He quickly used the "Five Elements Escape" technique, transformed into a wisp of breeze, and quickly left the auction area.

Arriving at a secluded woodland, Lu Yuan stopped and began to ponder.

He recalled the scene just now and found that his perception ability was indeed good and he was able to detect the presence of the stalker in time.

But what puzzled him was why the people from the Ghost Sect were interested in him?

He had never offended them, nor had they had any intersection with them.

"Maybe it's because of my friendship with Master Potian?"

Lu Yuan's mind suddenly brightened up, and he thought of the fact that he had become good friends with True Lord Potian at the auction.

He once attracted the interest of True Lord Potian with a special elixir recipe, and the two of them thus became acquainted.

Lu Yuan guessed that the people from the Ghost Sect might be interested in his ability to refine pills, or they might want to obtain some secrets of immortality from him.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Yuan made up his mind and decided to be more cautious in the future to avoid causing unnecessary trouble again.

He took a deep breath, put his doubts aside, and decided to move on.

As soon as he stood up, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

Lu Yuan was stunned, then looked at the person who came with caution.

The person who came was a young woman, dressed in purple, with a pretty face and a cold expression.

"Are you Lu Yuan?"

The woman asked coldly.

Lu Yuan frowned. He had never seen this woman before and didn't know who she was.

But he vaguely felt that this woman seemed to know something about him. "Yes, I am Lu Yuan."

"you are?"

Lu Yuan answered vigilantly.

The woman glanced at Lu Yuan, then smiled contemptuously: "It seems that you are really not worth my effort."

Lu Yuan was stunned after hearing this. He didn't understand why this woman was laughing at him like that.

He felt a surge of anger, but he didn't know how to respond.

"Are you from the Ghost Sect?"

Lu Yuan finally asked the question in his mind.

The woman smiled slightly and confirmed Lu Yuan's guess: "Yes, I am from the Ghost Sect."

"You should feel honored to be tracked by our Ghost Sect's people personally."

Lu Yuan gritted his teeth. He felt that his dignity was insulted, but he also knew that he did not have the ability to compete with the other party at the moment.

"What do you want from me?"

Lu Yuan managed to calm down and tried to communicate with the other party.

The woman glanced around and said coldly, "I'm here to warn you not to associate with True Lord Po Tian again, or you will regret it one day."

Lu Yuan was stunned after hearing this. He did not expect that the woman's purpose was to warn him.

He couldn't help but think of the dispute between the Ghost Sect and the Black Flame Sect. Perhaps this was the reason why what happened today happened.

"The dispute between the Ghost Sect and the Black Flame Sect has nothing to do with me. I only met True Lord Potian once."

Lu Yuan replied in a firm tone.

There was a flash of anger in the woman's eyes, and she was obviously dissatisfied with Lu Yuan's answer.

"You'd better not get involved, otherwise you will bear the consequences."

The woman's words were full of threats.

Lu Yuan sneered. He was not afraid of the other party's threat: "I always have my own principles in doing things, and I will not back down because of other people's disputes."

"I will continue to interact with True Lord Potian. What can you, the Ghost Sect, do?"

After hearing this, the woman rushed towards Lu Yuan angrily. A black sword appeared out of thin air in her hand, and she was filled with murderous intent.

Lu Yuan reacted instantly. He activated his magic without hesitation and his body instantly flew into the air, avoiding the woman's attack.

"Su Liyan, help me deal with him!" Lu Yuan shouted loudly.

At this moment, Su Liyan's figure suddenly appeared behind the woman, and the long ice crystal whip in her hand lashed towards the woman like lightning.

The woman turned around suddenly, dodging Su Liyan's attack, and then sneered, "You two youngsters, don't even think you can deal with me."

As soon as she finished speaking, a black flame shot out from her hand and headed straight towards Su Liyan.

Su Liyan's face changed. She tightly grasped the cold jade ice flakes in her hand, condensing a layer of ice shield to block the woman's fire attack.

Lu Yuan took the opportunity to use the "Tian Gang Big Dipper Formation". His body was as fast as lightning, and the Tian Gang Thunder and Fire Sword in his hand was swung out instantly. The sword energy was sharp and pointed directly at the woman.

The woman sneered and swung the black sword in her hand, intersecting with Lu Yuan's sword energy.

For a moment, sword lights intertwined and fire splashed.

The battle was extremely fierce. Lu Yuan and Su Liyan relied on their tacit cooperation and tried their best to fight the woman.

The woman also demonstrated her powerful strength by relying on the unique martial arts of the Ghost Sect.

After a fierce fight, the woman finally felt a little overwhelmed. She clenched her teeth and a look of determination flashed in her eyes.

"I'll let you go this time, but it won't be so easy next time." (End of this chapter)
