Chapter 463 Ambush and Murder Outside the Building, Demon King and Empress You
At this moment, the bidding for the Five Elements Stone in the auction house is in full swing.
Those on the second floor all tacitly chose to remain silent, allowing the cultivators on the first floor to fiercely fight over it.
In their eyes, although the Five Elements Stones were good, they each possessed even more precious Five Elements Treasures, so they naturally disdained to compete for them at high prices.
Inside the first floor, shouts of bidding rose and fell, with many people shouting until their faces turned red, all in an effort to acquire the Five Elements Stone.
Chu Lengyu sat quietly in the private room on the second floor, watching the lively scene, but her heart remained calm.
Her gaze swept across the first floor, where the three mysterious masked men were no longer in their seats.
The identification of the spiritual essence and the handover of the auctioned items were successfully completed. Having obtained the Destiny Wheel Fruit they had longed for, they left the place without hesitation.
Their goal was so clear that they showed no hesitation, and even the mysterious final item failed to entice them to linger.
As the three masked men left, more than a dozen people followed suit and got up to leave the auction hall.
Their purpose is self-evident.
Chu Lengyu glanced lightly at the gradually emptying venue, then looked away and sat back down on the softly cushioned chair.
She closed her eyes slightly, focusing her mind and calming her spirit.
This cushion may seem unremarkable, but it actually contains high-level mind-clearing and spirit-gathering arrays. Sitting here is quite beneficial.
The generosity of the Myriad Stars Alliance is evident from this.
……
the other side.
The masked trio had quietly left the Wanxing Alliance branch via the teleportation array.
They were randomly teleported to a secluded location outside Jingu Island. As soon as they landed, they immediately released an ancient-looking jade spirit boat, which broke through the waves and quickly sailed away from the area.
However, their whereabouts seemed to have been discovered long ago.
Behind them, several streaks of light followed closely, relentlessly pursuing them.
Many others lurked in the shadows, secretly following along, hoping to get a share of the profits.
"These people really value money more than their lives." The man in the purple mask shook his head slightly.
He made no move, but the jade spirit boat suddenly disappeared from everyone's sight.
On the sea, the trackers were taken aback.
They quickly flew to the spot where the spirit boat had disappeared, looking around, but there was no trace of the three people.
These people each had their own agendas and were not a group. When they discovered that their target had disappeared, they immediately scattered to search for him. Some flew into the sky, while others dived into the sea.
Little did they know, the jade spirit boat had already activated the Five Elements Illusion Array, concealing its form and quietly departing.
At the same time, they used a mermaid's tear to create a water-repellent shield, allowing the spirit boat to move silently and swiftly in the sea, like a fish swimming in the vast ocean.
Over the years, these three have been responsible for searching for different monsters in various realms, and their skills in stealth have become unparalleled.
These trackers alone couldn't even catch a glimpse of them.
Only now did the three of them have a moment to carefully examine the Destiny Wheel Fruit they had just acquired.
The man in the black mask, who was usually taciturn, couldn't help but exclaim, "This Destiny Wheel Fruit is of excellent quality and full of spiritual energy. It looks as if it was just picked from the divine tree. It's truly rare."
The man in the golden mask nodded in amazement: "Indeed, it must be because the Myriad Star Alliance preserved it well. The last time the Divine Tree Space was opened was three thousand years ago. The reason why the Divine Tree Banquet changed is still a mystery."
He added with a chuckle, "Bringing him back this time will surely earn us a credit!"
Just as the two were talking, the purple-masked man who was controlling the jade spirit boat suddenly stopped the boat.
The two companions' expressions changed slightly, and a sense of foreboding welled up in their hearts.
Beneath the shimmering blue sea, a woman's voice echoed softly: "You all have such a strong demonic aura about you."
His tone seemed to carry a hint of regret.
They were so close it was as if they were whispering in their ears.
Just hearing that one sentence made them involuntarily lose their composure.
The man in the purple mask steadied himself and searched for the source of the voice.
A dark purple square portal silently opened in the seawater, like the gaping maw of an abyss, swallowing the surrounding light.
A blurry female figure could be seen in the middle of the scene.
In the blink of an eye, several thick tentacles silently floated beside the jade spirit boat, as if they had always been there, only they hadn't noticed them.
This spirit ship, like a tiny flying insect, was completely unaware of everything and unknowingly stumbled into this "spider web".
The three of them exclaimed in unison, "A seventh-tier demon king!"
At this moment, they finally realized that the damned Myriad Star Alliance had actually sold the invitation to the second-floor private room to the Siren!
The sea area of the Minghai boundary is more than ten times the size of the island's land area; it is vast, boundless, and unfathomably deep.
In this vast sea, countless sea monsters were born.
However, it is precisely because of the vastness and complexity of this sea that the sea monsters have failed to unite into a powerful force, instead operating independently in different parts of the country, and even harboring hatred towards each other.
Now, standing in their way is the Netherworld Demon King, one of the Four Seas Demon Kings, also known as the Netherworld Queen.
From within the square portal, the blurry-looking woman spoke again: "Since you've guessed my identity, why not obediently come with me to the Nether Sea for a few days as a guest, how about it?"
Those massive tentacles had already blocked off all sides, leaving only the entrance in front, which emitted a faint light, as if welcoming us.
Faced with this unexpected invitation, the three fell silent.
They understood that the high-profile auction of the Destiny Wheel Fruit had attracted attention, which was to be expected.
They never expected that the one who ambushed and killed them was not the Sea King's Palace, nor any other force, but the Demon King!
In front of a seventh-tier demon king, although they have the strength to save their lives and escape, they will inevitably reveal some of their true abilities.
Moreover, there is an even worse possibility: there is more than one demon king, Youhou, in the vicinity.
Thinking about this, they couldn't help but feel a chill of fear, as if they had unwittingly fallen into someone else's trap.
Tang Zhangshi, the Fate Wheel Fruit, the auction, Box No. 88... Looking back now, it all seems like we were following a script designed by someone else.
They willingly played the roles in the script, unaware of the lurking crisis behind it all.
No, they actually guessed it, but their arrogance led them to selectively ignore it.
