  An Zheng shrugged and did not say a word.

  However, Gu Man was furious. "My master is talking to you!"

  An Zheng ignored him, and continued to pacify the cat in her arms. This was because the cat had been shivering ever since Gu Man and the rest entered the room, especially after they opened the door. Perhaps it was thinking about its experience with An Zheng in the Mount Cang Man and was shocked when it saw the scales of that big fish.

  Gu Man stood up abruptly, pulled out the hunting fork from the ground, and walked towards An Zheng with big steps: "Kneel down and apologize!"

  Zhuang Feifei's eyes did not leave the scale, but her voice was ice-cold as she said, "If you dare be presumptuous, I'll kill all of you. If you want to, you can do so? "

  Gu Man's footsteps immediately stopped. She subconsciously turned her head to look at the little girl. The little girl shook her head slightly. Gu Man immediately withdrew back to her side.

  "Since you recognize this item, you should know its value."

  The little girl walked to a chair and sat down. She said in an aged tone, "Our Old Hunters is not good at doing business, so we are often tricked. However, we are well aware of the value of this thing. The appearance of the Holy Fish meant that the world was about to fall into chaos. With the scales of the Holy Fish, it is equivalent to having a protective talisman that is sufficient enough to settle one's life in this chaotic world. "

  Zhuang Feifei stood up, but her gaze did not leave the scale: "That is only a legend, it might not be real."

  The little girl said: "Our Old Hunters, however, has never doubted the authenticity of this prophecy. Several hundred years ago, Holy Fish appeared. The rise of the southern Great Xixi had pacified the chaotic world for hundreds of years. Furthermore, according to the rumors, the reason why the royal family of the Da Xi Empire could become the ruler is because they were favored by the Holy Fish. "

  An Zheng frowned slightly, because he had never heard of such a rumor. As the head of the Great Xi Empire's Ming Fa Si, how could the people of the Old Hunters know about the rumors that he didn't even know about? Furthermore, the rise of the Da Xi royal family was due to the birth of a Greater Heaven stage Omnipotent Expert. It had nothing to do with the Holy Fish.

  But from the looks of it, Zhuang Feifei did not doubt the little girl's words.

  "Every time a Holy Fish appears, it is a harbinger of great chaos."

  The little girl continued: "With the Holy Fish's scales, it's equivalent to getting the Holy Fish's guidance. Rumor has it that the scales would give people protection, allowing them to escape the chaotic world and even finding an unparalleled treasure. And those who obtain the treasures will be able to obtain the world. "

  An Zheng asked: "Then why don't you go find the treasure yourselves?"

  The little girl stared at An Zheng, but answered with extreme seriousness: "Because … I am very clear that our Old Hunters is unable to protect this thing. Rather than provoking the destruction of our entire clan because of it, it is better to use it to exchange for more than enough things. "

  An Zheng asked: "Aren't you afraid of causing trouble now?"

  The little girl raised her eyebrows: "This Fantasy City, I don't even put him in my eyes. Although the Old Hunters was not as prosperous as it was in the past, there were still tens of thousands of warriors. If anything happens to me here today, my Fantasy City will be massacred. "

  Suddenly, the sound of a bugle horn could be heard outside. Very soon, there were people shouting on the street with fear in their voices.

  "Old Hunters's army!"

  Chapter 59 - Killing First Mr

  The people of Zaocang all became stern, as they maintained a state where they could attack at any time. However, Zhuang Feifei seemed to be a lot more relaxed than before. She twisted her waist slightly and walked to the opposite side of the little girl and sat down. She crossed her legs and looked at the little girl, smiled, and said, "If you come here just for the money, then you have no more worries. The reason why I requested for the clan to be sealed is because I was worried that you guys might have encountered some trouble that you can't solve yourselves. "

  The little girl said, "In the Mount Cang Man, even if you are the fiercest Demon Beast, we can still deal with you. But towards you people who come from outside the Mount Cang Man, we can't help but be more careful. Before the Patriarch died, he said that the most vicious thing was the human heart. "

  Zhuang Feifei laughed and said: "Since your Clan Chief can teach you all these, it means that he has treated you quite well."

  "He's my father."

  The little girl replied straightforwardly, her eyes revealing a maturity that did not match her age. But to Zhuang Feifei, this kind of maturity was mostly an act.

  "My name is Gu Qianye."

  The little girl intentionally put on a serious expression when she spoke, "He's the current Patriarch of the Old Hunters, so I have the right to make any kind of deal with you."

  Zhuang Feifei said: "You came to the right place, because only I know the value of that thing."

  The little girl shook her head. "No, now your customers know."

  An Zheng looked at the crowd, many of their eyes were filled with greed, including the old man Liu who looked like he couldn't even walk properly. And the most direct and undisguised source of this greedy light was Zhen Zhuangbi.

  "An Zheng, what exactly is that thing?"

  Du Shoushou could not help but ask.

  An Zheng replied, "Scale."

  Du Shoushou replied, "Of course I know it's a fish scale, but what is a Holy Fish?"

  An Zheng shook his head. "I don't know."

  Gu Qianye glanced at An Zheng in disdain, then continued to speak towards Zhuang Feifei. "I am not unreasonable to choose your Zaocang, because I know that you have the most treasures in this place. I am not greedy either, I can even push the value of the Holy Fish's scales to the lowest, as long as you have all the treasures in Zaocang. Take all of them out and I will pass the Holy Fish's scales to you. "

  "Hahahaha."

  Zhuang Feifei laughed until her branches trembled, "Little girl, are you joking? Because of an untrue legend, I have to exchange all of the Zaocang's treasures for you? "

  Gu Qianye said: "I am not in the mood to bargain with you. I am here on behalf of the entire Old Hunters."

  Zhuang Feifei withdrew her smile, and then shrugged her shoulders: "You yourself also know, that this thing is only a symbol, and no one knows if it has any actual meaning. Although my Zaocang does not have any truly outstanding treasures, if I were to dig out all of them, it would be enough to cause a bloodbath. Therefore, your request is a bit too much. "

  Gu Qianye stood up: "Since you're not interested in making a deal, then I'll go look for someone else. Zaocang was Fantasy City's first choice, but it was not her only choice. "As far as I know, there's also an auction house called De Bao Zhai in Fantasy City."

  Zhuang Feifei nodded his head, "It looks like you came prepared as well. You know that other than my Zaocang, the only person who has the ability to make transactions with you is De Bao Zhai. "How about this, you give me two hours to think about it."

  The little girl was silent for a moment, then she nodded. "Alright, let's do it for two hours."

  Zhuang Feifei stood up and waved her hand, and a few experts walked over. An Zheng saw that Zhuang Feifei had muttered something, but because there was a veil that prevented her from seeing it, he did not know what she had said. An Zheng finally understood that the effect of that thin veil was not to be underestimated. After Zhuang Feifei finished speaking, the few people from Zaocang left.

  "Relax now, we've already sealed off the gates. Let's continue with the previous game."

  Zhuang Feifei laughed and said: "I have already sent people to ask for instructions, there will be a reply in two hours."

  She looked at Gu Qianye and said: "We're going to wait here anyway, let's play together?"

  Gu Qianye sh
ook her head in silence.

  Zhuang Feifei clapped his hands, and a dozen strong men walked up from behind him with a gigantic object in their hands. It was covered with a red cloth, so she could just make out the outline. It was rectangular, with one end being bigger and the other was smaller.

  "What bad luck!"

  Zhen Zhuangbi who was seated far away snorted, "He actually brought a coffin over."

  An Zheng didn't mind as he continued to pacify the cat in his arms. good old man turned his head to glance at the scales from time to time, before quickly withdrawing his head. However, after a while, its fear seemed to have lessened a little.

  "I feel very depressed."

  Du Shoushou patted his chest, "This is the second time I've felt something like this."

  An Zheng was curious, "When was the first time?"

  Du Shoushou said: "For the first time... Years ago, when I was six or seven. Our families are all poor, so when it comes to festivals, we just watch others set off firecrackers. One year, the rich in Nanshan Street let out firecrackers in their homes, and then the servants swept away the trash, such as cannons, and piled them outside the door. I happened to pass by and no one saw me. I searched through the cannon crusts and found a few that haven't exploded yet. There were both big and small. "

  Du Shoushou gestured: "This one is only as big as my pinky, and the other is as thick as my arm. I was overjoyed. I ran home with the firecrackers, found a fire piston, and ran out again. Afraid of being scolded by my parents, he found a sparse place to set them down. In the end, there's only the biggest one left, and I can't bear to part with it. And then I thought, this thing has to shine. "

  "I saw that there was a latrine in the alley, and normally no one would go there, so I set fire to the biggest firecracker and threw it into the latrine. Who would have thought that … There was someone in the toilet. The power of the firecrackers was so strong that half of the latrine had been blown up by the firecrackers. A burly man ran out with his pants up and grabbed me, who was scared witless. He grabbed my shirt in front of me and raised his hand to hit me. "

  Du Shoushou sighed: "At that time, looking at the hand he raised up was incredibly depressing."

  An Zheng laughed: "I didn't beat you to death, that person is already considered kind."

  Du Shoushou said: "Not only did he not beat me to death, he did not even hit me. He said if it wasn't for the fact that your face was full of shit, I would definitely beat you to death today. When he left, even I felt a little lonely with his back holding onto my pants. "

  With a pu sound, An Zheng almost spat out his tea.

  When Gao Sanduo and the others heard this, their expressions all warped, wanting to laugh but finding it difficult to do so.

  "Everyone, take a look at this."

  Zhuang Feifei walked to the high platform and pointed to the object beneath the red cloth: "This is the first item for today, maybe the last item, because the little patriarch of the Old Hunters seemed to be a little impatient waiting for something. "Therefore, everyone, hurry up. The prize money will double, and whoever sees it will get those three stones."

  Zhen Zhuangbi retracted his gaze from the scales, with a wave of his hand, he swept the place with his Spirit Qi and swept away the red cloth. Beneath the red cloth was a coffin.

  But when Zhen Zhuangbi saw the coffin, his face immediately changed. He quickly walked onto the platform and looked at it carefully, "Bronze coffin … It was filled with water vapor. Could it be something that originated from some underground river? First Mr, you have not opened this thing, how dare you bring it back? Everyone knew that coffins had two places where one could not touch them. One was a floating coffin, the other was a underwater coffin … Especially the underwater coffin. "

  Zhuang Feifei clapped her hands: "Vice Principal Zhen really has good eyesight, this thing is indeed underwater, but I did not activate it, and it rushed out."

  She explained, "A few days ago, there was a flash flood in the mountains. I don't know where the water came from, but it almost flooded into our Illusory Paradise. But luckily, there were many ditches in the mountain, so the water retreated quickly. This coffin was seen by someone who rushed out of the water and sold it to my Zaocang. "

  Gao Sanduo lowered his voice and said to An Zheng: "A coffin is something that you shouldn't have touched to begin with. But some people do it for the sake of stealing treasures. However, even those who specialized in this kind of thing would not dare to so easily touch the floating and underwater coffins. Relatively speaking, the floating coffins weren't that scary, because as long as they were suspended in the air, it would be enough. However, the deeper one went into the underwater coffin, the more dangerous it became. Look at that bronze coffin, it's the strongest one, and it's still sealed very well, which means that even if you soak it in water for a few hundred or even several thousand years, it won't be able to cause any damage to this coffin. "

  "Normally, there must be something suppressing a deep underwater coffin. Presumably, under the mountain torrent, that suppressing object was washed away, which is why this bronze coffin was taken out. It's fine if you don't want to see it, but let's go. "

  Seeing Gao Sanduo's serious expression, An Zheng knew that he was especially worried in his heart. Normally, there would be some great calamities sealed within the coffin, and once it opened, blood might flow out like a river. Furthermore, the people of Old Hunters were currently sitting there. Gao Sanduo was a veteran, and naturally did not want to get involved in this muddy water. Although An Zheng was curious about the scales, curious about the bronze coffin, his strength was not enough, and was afraid that he would cause trouble for Du Shoushou, so he prepared to leave.

  Just as he and Gao Sanduo were about to stand up and leave, Gu Man stood up and raised her trident, "No one is allowed to leave until today's matter has been resolved."

  Gao Sanduo was originally trying to explain to Zhuang Feifei, but upon hearing Gu Man's words, he immediately became angry: "In the Fantasy City, if I, Third Master Gao want to leave, no one can stop me."

  Gu Man wanted to attack, but Gu Qianye glanced at An Zheng and said, "Forget it, they're just a few cowards. Just let them go."

  Gu Man retreated to stand beside Gu Qianye.

  Gao Sanduo said that he was too lazy to argue with you, so he apologized to Zhuang Feifei before pulling An Zheng and Du Shoushou away from the back door. Zhen Zhuangbi mocked from behind: "So how much guts do I have, it turns out that I have the habit of escaping with my tail between my legs."

  But before he could finish, something happened at the scene.

  Before An Zheng even reached the door, the fish scale on the ground suddenly flew up, and shot straight towards him. Everyone only had time to cry out in alarm, as that piece of fish scales had already reached the back of An Zheng's head. However, the bloody scene did not appear. With a flash of purple light, the fish scales became a fingernail sized piece, and landed in the palm of An Zheng's hand. An Zheng looked down and frowned slightly.

  "You want to steal something?!"

  Gu Man and Zhen Zhuangbi shouted at the same time as they moved to attack.

  As for Zhuang Feifei, she looked at An Zheng with an astonished expression.

  An Zheng looked at the thing in his hand. That scale had already turned into a small piece of jade-like thing, sparkling and translucent. He wanted to throw it away, but the scales on the ground flew back, lingering around An Zheng.

  Seeing this, Gu Qianye's eyes showed a very complex and strange expression.

  "You … Who exactly is it? "

  she asked.

  An Zheng shook his head, placed the scale on the table, and then pressed it down with an inkstone. "Who I am is not important, the important thing is that I am not interested in this thing or the rumors regarding your Old Hunters at all."

  However, just as he turned around, the scale flew back to his side. This time, the scales suddenly dug into the Bronze Bell s on good old man's neck
and never came out again.

  "Hand it over!"

  Gu Man and Zhen Zhuangbi had rushed over at the same time, and were equally ferocious. Even the kind-looking Elder Liu had a fierce look in his eyes.

  Gu Man shouted, "Your Zaocang is unreasonable. You actually let people rob things! Master, I think we should return with our things and go to the Desolate Land. In this Illusory Paradise, it's not like only the Zaocang knows anything. "

  It was at this time that the experts from the Zaocang who had left earlier returned. They then whispered a few words into Zhuang Feifei's ears.

  Zhuang Feifei laughed like a thousand-year fox demon, "Sorry, there is only one auction house in Illusory world that can trade with you guys now, De Bao Zhai is already the past, don't you guys think it's very mystical … … Why did such a big auction house suddenly disappear? It is said that blood flows like a river, and not a single living person is left alive. "

  The laughing Zhuang Feifei carried killing intent.

  Chapter 60 - Gu Sha

  Zhuang Feifei's words were light, but the killing intent was overflowing.

  Even An Zheng could not help but be taken aback, he had to take another look at this woman. For that piece of fish scale, this woman could instantly remove another auction house from the world of illusions. Just how many people did those people kill in the period after they left?

  Seeing An Zheng's expression change, Zhuang Feifei didn't know why but he suddenly felt fear in his heart. Then, she laughed at himself … Even if An Zheng was a monster, and was really a Divine Inheritor like he said, that was all. What did he have to be afraid of? A young man, no matter how good his eyesight was, would only have some specialties in the field of appraising treasures. In the entire cultivation world, An Zheng was nothing.

  But why was he afraid?

  Zhuang Feifei might never understand why she was afraid of An Zheng's eyes.

  "Fantasy City is like this."

  Zhuang Feifei also didn't know what was going on, and actually explained to An Zheng: "There's no one who can guarantee that they can live to see the sunrise tomorrow. The people of Dempsey are all a bunch of robbers, and most of their treasures are stolen, so I'm doing it on behalf of the gods. More importantly, I wanted to get rid of them a long time ago. "
