C3912 The Grey Cloud Society
Chen Xiao raised his head and looked at Yue Yao. His eyes were filled with questions, and he was a little confused.
Speaking of which, he didn't have any impression of this so-called Blue Cloud Invitation. It seemed to be an invitation to an auction.
However, if he remembered correctly, he had told Yue Yao not to bother him with such a small thing. There was no need to report it.
"An invitation to an auction?" Chen Xiao asked.
"Yes," Yue Yao nodded and said, "Just look at the last line of words and you will understand."
Chen Xiao nodded and glanced over. When he saw it, he was shocked. His gaze shrank as he stared at the invitation in his hand.
"There are three final treasures in this Azure Cloud Auction. One is the Nameless Soul Sword Art, the other is the Sacred Blood Pill, and the third is not known for now..."
"This..."
Seeing this, Chen Xiao took a deep breath and instantly understood Yue Yao's intentions.
"Is this the sword technique of the Soul Seizing Sword?" Chen Xiao asked.
"It's very possible. Looking at the appearance of this finale treasure, there is indeed a slight possibility. That's why I brought out this Azure Cloud Invitation for you to take a look at right away. Husband, what do you think?"
Yue Yao said solemnly.
She naturally knew what Chen Xiao was thinking.
All these years, other than cultivating in the Immortal Mansion and cultivating the Heaven Destroying Palm and cultivation techniques, Chen Xiao had never left the Purple Cloud City. However, he had secretly sent people to gather information about the Soul Seizing Sword, but he did not stop for even a moment.
However, he didn't need to do it himself. He just needed the help of the Qin Clan. Qin Zhenyun agreed readily.
He didn't expect there would be a clue today.
"Yue Yao, where did this Azure Cloud Invitation come from?" Chen Xiao asked again. He stood up and paced back and forth.
"It was personally sent by Qin Zhenyun just now. According to him, all the Tribulation Transcenders in Purple Cloud City have received a copy of this invitation, including the Duke of Purple Gold and the Heavenly Star Sword Sovereign," Yue Yao replied.
"Oh, that's right." Hearing that, Chen Xiao fell into deep thought.
On the other side, Zuo Zhao and Xiao Long saw that something was wrong and stopped as well.
They looked at each other and came to the pavilion. Xiao Long said, "Brother, what happened to make you so upset? Brother, you are a real Immortality Stage cultivator now."
"That's right. Captain, is it the demons again?" Zuo Zhao asked.
Chen Xiao sighed, laughed bitterly, and said: "If it's only the demons causing trouble, then it's simple. I'll just kill them all. This time, it's different. Take a look, do you know each other?"
As he spoke, Chen Xiao threw the Azure Cloud Invitation to the two of them.
After the two of them looked through it, Xiao Long said, "Azure Cloud Invitation, what is this? Auction, isn't that the old profession of our Purple Cloud City? Who dares to poach us?"
Hearing that, Chen Xiao shook his head and did not say anything else. He began to calculate in his heart.
At this time, Zuo Zhao opened his mouth and said, "Xiao Long, you don't know this, but this Green Cloud Invitation has a great background."
"What background?" Xiao Long was confused.
Usually, besides eating and sleeping, he only cultivated. He didn't know much about the outside world.
"Oh, Zuo Zhao, do you know about this Green Cloud Invitation?" Chen Xiao asked curiously.
Zuo Zhao nodded. He thought for a while and said, "On the surface, this Grey Cloud Meeting is just an ordinary auction. However, there are lots of treasures that even the Immortality Stage cultivators want. It is held every hundred years. Every time it is held, countless superior cultivators come to try their luck. Maybe they can get some treasures that can improve their power.
However, this was only one of the reasons. According to legend, the true power behind the Azure Cloud Society was the Immortal Weapon Sect, one of the nine great forces of the human race. They were the absolute rulers of the Central Continent of the Realm of the Gods.
It's because of this relationship that countless cultivators, be they Tribulation Transcenders or Immortalis, want to establish a relationship with the Immortal Weapon Sect. They want to gain benefits or protect them."
Hearing this, Chen Xiao's eyes lit up as he muttered to himself, "It's actually one of the forces of the Immortal Weapon Sect. They really have a long way to go."
Just now, he had also seen that the location of the Blue Cloud Association was called Blue Cloud City, and it was at the edge of the forces of the Unparalleled Divine Dynasty.
In other words, Dark Green Cloud City was like a nail that was nailed to the ground.
"That's right. No one dares to mess with the Immortal Weapon Sect. Even the Peerless Dynasty has to treat them as VIPs and serve them carefully," Zuo Zhao spoke in a deep voice.
This was reality. Whoever had the bigger fist could suppress others.
In the eyes of normal cultivators, the Unparalleled God Dynasty was a terrifying existence that couldn't be touched, but in the eyes of the Immortal Weapon Sect, it was nothing.
"So, Captain, are you planning to go to the Blue Cloud Association?" Zuo Zhao asked.
"Yes, I can go and take a look. I don't want to miss this opportunity," Chen Xiao said.
"Is it because of the finale treasure, the Nameless Soul Sword Art?" Zuo Zhao asked curiously.
"Yes." Chen Xiao nodded.
Although the Nameless Soul Sword Technique might not necessarily be related to the Soul Seizing Sword, it was the only clue he had so far. He wanted to find out more about it.
Besides, he had stayed in the Purple Cloud City for a long time, so he could go out for some fresh air.
Zuo Zhao started to think. After a while, he said, "Why don't I go with the captain?"
"Well, big brother, I..."
Xiao Long was anxious. He wanted to go too.
"Hmm..." Chen Xiao stroked his chin and thought for a moment, then said, "There's no rush. Let me think about it first."
After saying a few more words to Yue Yao, he left the Immortal Mansion and headed towards the direction of the Purple Hall.
He felt that he could ask the Duke of Purple Gold for his opinion. After all, the Duke of Purple Gold was much more experienced and knew more than him.
"En, let's do it."
A few breaths later, Chen Xiao arrived in front of the Purple Hall.
When the guards saw this, they immediately went forward and bowed their heads, "Greetings, Vice City Lord."
"Greetings, Vice City Lord."
"Is Lord Zi Hou here?" Chen Xiao asked.
"Yes, do you need us to go and report?" A guard said.
Chen Xiao opened his mouth and was about to speak when he heard the Marquis's voice, "Chen Xiao, come in."
"Alright."
Immediately, Chen Xiao entered the Purple Hall unimpeded and arrived at the backyard of the Purple Hall. In front of a courtyard and pavilion that was filled with flowers and plants and rare beasts, he saw the Duke of Purple Gold sitting upright surrounded by many maids.
When he saw Chen Xiao, he stood up and laughed out loud: "Chen Xiao, how have you been recently? I can see that your aura has become more and more condensed. It seems like you have made some progress. Not bad, not bad."
"Big Brother Zi Jing, don't joke with me. Compared to you, I'm still far off."
Chen Xiao said humbly.
These words were not an act, but came from the bottom of his heart.
