“I don’t like to use force,” Su Chen said indifferently.
“Oh?” Hearing Su Chen’s words, the Pavilion Master of True Treasure Pavilion raised his eyebrows and quickly said, “If you wish, 1 can send someone to assist you, just a minor Spirit Sea Realm cultivator.”
“Big brother seems to have forgotten that this person is not only a Spirit Sea Realm cultivator but has also killed several Golden Crow Clan princes, all of whom were at the Nirvana Realm,” Su Chen looked meaningfully at the Pavilion Master and said.
In his opinion, being able to possess immortal gold, something even great emperors might fail to obtain, at the Spirit Sea Realm, and moreover slay several Golden Crow Clan princes, this level of strength undoubtedly marked one as a top prodigy. At the very least, she was no weaker than Ye Ruxue.
It would have been fine if True Treasure Pavilion did not make a move. If they did act, it was uncertain whether they could obtain the immortal gold. But one thing was certain. Huo Xi would definitely resent True Treasure Pavilion. When she removed the seal of the Eternal Forbidden Body, True Treasure Pavilion might suffer.
“Eternal Forbidden Body?” The Pavilion Master chuckled, “The current era is no longer the ancient times. In this era, your divine body is one in a million! An archaic physique like the Eternal Forbidden Body is obsolete now. The laws of heaven and earth will not accommodate it!”
“No, that may not be the case!” Su Chen shook his head slightly.
“Does junior brother value her highly? But the crux is that her Eternal Forbidden Body is now but a crippled form! She has no hope of reaching the Nirvana Realm in this life, let alone retaining the immortal gold in her hands!” The Pavilion Master spoke with puzzlement.
He truly did not understand why Su Chen thought so highly of Huo Xi. Su Chen did not answer. He gazed at the scenery outside, lost in thought.
At this moment, a servant hurriedly approached and loudly announced, “Pavilion Master, the Yin Yang Holy Son, Fourth Prince of the Golden Crow Clan, and others request to meet the Great Mystery Holy Son!”
“Hmm?” Hearing this, the Pavilion Master frowned briefly before relaxing. He glanced at Su Chen, then the servant, and said, “Let them in.”
“Yes, Master” The servant swiftly departed.
Soon after, dozens of figures approached from afar. Each had an extremely terrifying aura. The few at the forefront were Holy Sons and Holy Maidens of various factions. After entering, they first respectfully bowed to the Pavilion Master.
The Yin Yang Holy Son was the first to speak. He looked respectfully at Su Chen and said, “Brother Su Chen, you came to the Holy City without informing me, how could 1 have welcomed you properly as host?”
“I was just passing through.” Su Chen waved his hand and smiled. “I was headed to the Purple Clouds Holy Land. Along the way, I heard the Holy City was holding an auction, so I thought it would be interesting to attend. 1 did not want to disturb anyone.”
“I see!” The Yin Yang Holy Son nodded.
At this moment, the Pavilion Master beckoned to everyone and waved his hand. “You are all guests. Since you are here, please take a seat!”
As he finished speaking, servants streamed in from the entrance and prepared the venue. Once everyone was seated, Huo Xi sat quietly in a corner, her fiery red eyes curiously sizing up Su Chen. She was very intrigued by this person who had helped her recently.
Just as her gaze settled on Su Chen, his eyes also fell upon her. Their gazes met. Su Chen gently nodded in greeting. Seeing this, Huo Xi’s heart skipped a beat and she shifted her eyes elsewhere, her expression slightly awkward.
Until now, she still could not determine Su Chen’s attitude. After all, it was no longer a secret that she possessed immortal gold. With this exposed before everyone, no one could be certain Su Chen had no ulterior motives.
“I wonder how long Brother Su Chen plans to stay in the Holy City?” Unable to contain his curiosity, the Fourth Prince of the Golden Crow Clan inquired.
After the auction incident, he also worried Su Chen might fancy the immortal gold. If Su Chen made a move, the prince likely had no chance of obtaining it. The events at the ruins of the God Demon Sect still chilled everyone. With one word from Su Chen, the Yin Yang Holy Land and True Treasure Pavilion would gladly assist him.
Relying only on himself and the few Golden Crow Clan Quasi-Saint Realm powerhouses behind him was far from sufficient to contend with Su Chen. Only by sending Su Chen away could he feel at ease dealing with Huo Xi.
“I probably won’t stay for too long,” Su Chen replied ambiguously.
“Hmm?” The Fourth Prince’s eyes turned cold. Su Chen’s words were unclear. What did he mean by that? Was he leaving soon or staying long? If Su Chen remained in the Holy City, would he make a move?
One had to know that Huo Xi was no lifeless target waiting for his action. As a Spirit Sea Realm expert with a tremendous inheritance, if she wanted to leave quietly, she certainly could. By then, locating Huo Xi again would prove most difficult.
“The Golden Crow Clan has no feud with the Great Mystery Sacred Sect. 1 believe Brother Su Chen will not hinder me, right?” After much deliberation, the Fourth Prince spoke solemnly.
He truly did not grasp Su Chen’s intent. So, he decided to be direct about it. As soon as these words came out, everyone in the grand hall understood. The prince of the Golden Crow Clan was implying something about Huo Xi in secret.
Soon, many gazes settled upon Huo Xi. Her peerless beauty made one instinctively want to draw near. However, all present had steely resolve. After all, at their cultivation level, female cultivators held no allure. There was far too many of peerless beauty in the cultivation world. More than appearance, they valued the immortal gold in Huo Xi’s hand. Looks were worthless to them, but immortal gold held profound meaning.
These young prodigies had come today firstly to visit Su Chen, and secondly to probe his attitude toward the immortal gold.
“I’m afraid the Fourth Prince will be disappointed!” The Pavilion Master looked mockingly at the prince. He had asked Su Chen a similar question earlier. While Su Chen replied he disliked using force, this did not mean he had no interest in the immortal gold. Moreover, Su Chen had been seeking saint-level materials. Clearly, he had begun forging his own sacred weapon. With immortal gold appearing at this crucial moment, how could Su Chen not be moved?
The Pavilion Master was most intrigued by what method Su Chen would use to obtain it.
Behind them, Huo Xi’s expression shifted subtly. She looked up warily at Su Chen, her eyes filled with curiosity..
