The Devil's Tribulation

Chapter 587 The monk surnamed Pan

Yushu City of Shang State, Wanbao Pavilion auction venue.

Chu Xuanji chuckled and said, "Give it back to him? Even if I give it to him, it will probably be useless."

Pan Chengfeng was furious and gritted his teeth, "If that's the case, then find a way to kill him. Isn't he just a disciple of the Great Emperor? He's just a nominal disciple, not the Great Emperor himself. I'm not afraid of him!"

Chu Xuanji said with horror: "Brother, don't do anything stupid. If you dare to kill the emperor's disciples, even if they are registered disciples, the emperor will find you!"

Pan Chengfeng stood up, walked back and forth with his hands behind his back, and finally stopped and said, "Why are we in such a hurry? I don't believe that he will use this matter to complain to the Evil Emperor. Besides, who is the Evil Emperor to care about such trivial matters?"

"That's what I said~" Chu Xuanji hesitated and continued: "But his identity is here, the Shang family must also attach the most importance to this Shang inheritance, and he can mobilize more power."

Pan Chengfeng sneered and said, "As long as the emperor doesn't ask, the merchants can come. I'm not afraid of him!"

Chu Xuanji and Pan Chengfeng calmed down and thought about what happened today. Chu Xuanji spoke first: "What my brother said is not wrong, but the power of merchants should not be underestimated~"

Pan Chengfeng comforted him, "Don't worry, brother, this is none of your business..." "What are you talking about, brother?" Chu Xuanji said unhappily, "Does my brother look like that kind of person?"

Pan Chengfeng quickly explained: "Brother didn't mean that, it's just that this matter was caused by me.

Besides, if the merchants really want to kill me, I can still hide in the Yu Lei Sect, and they won’t dare to come~Brother, the power of Licheng Wanbao Pavilion is not enough to protect you~"

When they heard about the Emperor's registered disciple, they were a little confused. Now they calmed down and thought that they could just hide in the sect to practice. No matter how powerful Shang Shang was, he dared to fight with the Yu Lei Sect?

After figuring it out, Pan Chengfeng sat down again and shouted, "Master Ding, it's been a long time, isn't it time to strike?"

Ding Buyi held the hammer and ignored Pan Chengfeng. He was waiting for Shang Jicheng's order.

A quarter of an hour later, in VIP Room No. 1, Shang Jicheng's voice finally rang out, saying calmly, "What are you waiting for, Pavilion Master Ding? Hammer it down~"

After saying this, Shang Jicheng left with his followers. Ding Buyi opened his mouth, looked at the hundreds of thousands of people in the venue, and finally gritted his teeth and banged the auction hammer and said, "The seventh-level crystal core was won by the distinguished guest in the VIP room!"

Half a quarter of an hour later, Ding Buyi personally brought the crystal core to Pan Chengfeng's VIP room and sneered, "Boy, you have to be alive to take it, but you also have to be alive to use it! If you offend Young Master Shang, you will die!!"

Chu Xuanji said coldly: "Ding Buyi, I will report your actions in Yushu City to the Grand Master truthfully. I hope you will take care of yourself! Brother, let's go~"

After Shang Jicheng left the auction house, he headed straight to his family home. His followers followed him all the way and consoled him, "Master, don't be angry. We'll find another way to get Miss Nangong's gift. Don't we still have more than half a year?"

“Time?! I lied to my father and grandfather for this crystal core! I brought it out of the family! But in the end, it was bought by someone else! The crystal core I brought out was actually bought by someone else. I am so angry!!!”

It turned out that this crystal core was something from Shang Jia's treasure house. Shang Jicheng deceived his father and grandfather by saying that the Evil Emperor's birthday was approaching and he needed a considerable amount of spirit stones to prepare a gift for his master.

However, in Dongzhou, except for a few major sects, all other spiritual veins are under the control of the Evil Emperor.

Shang Jicheng lied to his father and grandfather, saying that they could send the item to an auction house and let Wanbao Pavilion spread the word that they only wanted spiritual stones or rare treasures.

When his father and grandfather heard that Shang Jicheng was going to prepare a gift for his master, they did not dare to neglect him, so they asked him to go to the treasury to choose treasures to sell, and also reminded him: "Don't be petty~"

A seventh-level crystal core, which is the energy essence of the Demon Lord, is enough for Shang Jicheng to sell it at a good price, and then use the spirit stones to prepare gifts.

Someone may ask, why not just give the crystal core as a gift? If the Evil Emperor wants the Demon Lord's crystal core, does he need him to give it to him? So it must be a rare object, it doesn't have to be expensive, but it must be rare~

In fact, Shang Jicheng had already prepared the spirit stones to make a gift for the Evil Emperor. His purpose in getting the seventh-level crystal core was to give it to others.

Who should I give it to? That is Nangong Wan, the eldest daughter of Zijin Mansion, the first sect in Nanzhou~

Nangong Wan is the best candidate for Shang Jicheng's Taoist partner in terms of both identity and appearance, and Shang Jicheng also likes Nangong Wan very much.

If Pan Chengfeng knew that the candidate for his wife had already been targeted by someone, I wonder how he would feel~

Shang Jicheng became angrier the more he thought about it, and his handsome little face was distorted by anger.

He returned to his family angrily and went back to his room. As soon as he sat down, he yelled, "Where's that loser Ding Buyi? Let him roll over here!"

The attendant hurriedly said, "I have sent a message to him. He should be here soon."

As they were talking, Ding Buyi arrived and shouted at the door: "Ding Buyi wants to see Master Shang~"

Shang Jicheng calmed down his anger and adjusted his mood. It didn't matter if he lost his composure in front of his followers, but he couldn't do that in front of "outsiders".

A quarter of an hour later, Shang Jicheng nodded. His follower understood what he meant and said, "Ding Daoyou, the young master wants to see you~"

Ding Buyi walked in hurriedly and saw Shang Jicheng sitting in the main seat with an expressionless face. He quickly handed him a storage ring and said, "Master Shang, this is the proceeds from the crystal core auction, 510,000 high-grade spirit stones, and Wanbao Pavilion didn't spend a penny~"

Shang Jicheng didn't even reach out to take the ring, but asked calmly: "Do you know who it is?"

Ding Buyi knew that Shang Jicheng was asking about Chu Xuanji and Pan Chengfeng, and hurriedly replied: "The two people in the VIP room are Chu Xuanji, the head of the Wanbao Pavilion's Dazhou branch.

The other person's specific identity is unclear, but Chu Xuanji calls him his younger brother, and he only has the seventh level of Jindan cultivation. The one who snatched the crystal core from Master Shang was that Jindan cultivator."

Shang Jicheng thought he had misheard and said in a bad tone, "Golden Core Cultivator? Where would a Golden Core Cultivator get so many high-quality spirit stones? Do you think I'm a fool?"

Ding Buyi knelt down immediately and shouted, "Even if you give me ten times the courage, I would not dare to deceive you, young master.

He is indeed a Jindan cultivator. Chu Xuanji never introduced his identity, so I don’t know who he is. I only know his last name is Pan. "

Shang Jicheng took the storage ring, probed it with his spiritual sense, and muttered, "There are really so many spirit stones. A Jindan cultivator actually has so many high-grade spirit stones. This is unreasonable~ Even if it is a high-grade crystal bead, a Jindan cultivator can't take it out, let alone a spirit stone?

Da Zhou? Da Zhou is the territory of the Beast Taming Sect. The Beast Taming Sect has a body of ten thousand beasts, with a golden elixir cultivation level, but she is a woman~

"Surname Pan? Ding Buyi, there are some famous monks with the surname Pan in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Do you remember any of them?"

Ding Buyi remained kneeling as he pondered, "Is there a famous Great Zhou cultivator with the surname Pan? Hmm~ It seems there is one, but that person is from the Yu Lei Sect, named Pan Chengfeng, and has reached the Golden Core level."

Monks have good memories. After thinking for a while, Ding Buyi thought of Pan Chengfeng. After all, he seemed to be the only famous monk with the surname Pan, and he was very famous.

Shang Jicheng suddenly realized and said, "Pan Chengfeng, I have heard of him. He seems to be a direct disciple of one of the three friends of the Yu Lei Sect? Is that right?"

Ding Buyi said quickly, "Yes, yes, it's him. Wanbao Pavilion even collected some information about him. He is now the number one disciple of the Yu Lei Sect. It seems that he was the one who found the Demon Companion Grass during this trip to the Withered Bone Realm!"

"He just came here after leaving the Dry Bone Realm? In that case, he got a great opportunity in the Dry Bone Realm?" Shang Jicheng muttered to himself, "Otherwise, how do you explain that he has so many spirit stones?"

Ding Buyi quickly described Pan Chengfeng's characteristics in detail. After thinking about it, the two felt that only Pan Chengfeng from the Yu Lei Sect met the characteristics of the person with the surname Pan.

Shang Jicheng concluded, "That means he didn't run away. Keep a close eye on him and hold him back for at least another hour! I'll make my own arrangements!"

Ding Buyi quickly bowed and agreed, then hurried back to delay time.

As soon as Ding Buyi left, Shang Jicheng's face changed immediately, and he said angrily: "You little jerk, you dare to snatch things from me! Shang An, immediately arrange for someone to kill him outside the city for me and bring back his storage magic weapon!"

The follower, Shang An, accepted the order with a bow, but still asked, "Master, do you want to take two Void Refining cultivators with you?"

Shang Jicheng thought for a while and said, "For safety reasons, take four cultivators in the middle stage of the Void Refining Stage and kill Chu Xuanji as well! Remember, don't leave any traces. If the Yu Lei Sect finds out, it will be a big trouble."

One who is half a step into the realm of refining emptiness, one who is at the seventh level of the golden elixir, and four cultivators at the middle stage of the realm of refining emptiness are the best that can be done, and there is absolutely no chance of error.

Unfortunately, in this world, it is often the case that "it is better to be safe than sorry".
