Empress: My husband is too strong, I can only lie down and relax.

Chapter 192 Participating in the Auction, Ancient Sacred Peaches!

"A living dragon!?"

But Gu Jiancheng shook his head decisively upon hearing this: "That's impossible."

Within the Ruins of Guixu, there are only zombies and monsters; how could there be any living dragons?

Unless it's a dragon egg left over from ancient times.

“I saw it with my own eyes, how could I possibly lie to Brother Gu?”

"I suspect it's a dragon egg from ancient times that just happened to hatch not long ago."

"Even though he is still a minor, his combat power is terrifying!"

But Feng Yunxiao made a firm promise.

"In that case, I'm quite curious."

Gu Jiancheng narrowed his eyes slightly.

If there really are living dragons, wouldn't this be a preparation for the inheritance of the Rising Dragon Transformation?

"I don't understand. What did you mean by saying that the ancient city is neither safe nor free?"

At this moment, Gu Jiancheng asked again.

Although Feng Yunxiao and his ilk are descendants of villains, they don't need to hide in this valley unless they actively reveal their identities.

"Hehe, it seems that Brother Gu still doesn't know enough about those three sects."

But Feng Yunxiao just sneered.

Not long ago, the three major sects pioneered this practice outside the boundary wall. Now they are all resting and recuperating inside the city. Starting tomorrow, they will surely forcibly close the city gates and confiscate the spirit pearls and treasures.

And tonight's exchange meeting, though seemingly an exchange, is nothing but a blatant act of extortion and plunder—a one-way trip!

"Huh!? Would they really be so shameless?" Chen Xianzhi gasped.

"Otherwise what? What kind of good people do you think they are?"

Feng Yunxiao chuckled and said, "We were almost harmed by them in the ancient city before, which is why we hid outside the city."

"So you trust me that much?" Gu Jiancheng suddenly raised an eyebrow and smiled.

“Of course I believe it, because you killed my enemy, and the Desolate Domain is a neutral area, and the Taiji Sect is a newly established sect, so it must not belong to the three holy lands.”

“Even Brother Gu’s willingness to make a move within the ancient city clearly shows a lack of respect for the three major sects. I don’t trust you, but I have no other choice,” Feng Yunxiao shrugged and laughed.

"Your enemy?"

Gu Jiancheng raised an eyebrow upon hearing this and asked, "Murong Jun?"

"That's right. He was actually a descendant of the villains on the list of evil people. He married into the Yuchi family in order to enter the Void."

"He and I are sworn enemies!"

Feng Yunxiao nodded.

"I see, then Murong Jun has been hiding his true intentions quite well." Gu Jiancheng suddenly realized.

"Actually, it's not just Murong Jun; many of the villains on the list have long been hiding in sects or even holy lands."

"And many of them are top-tier prodigies."

“Among the true disciples of the three super sects in that ancient city, there are some,” Feng Yunxiao said with a smile.

"Then, may I ask, Brother Feng, which ruthless killer are you descended from?" Gu Jiancheng asked with a smile.

“My father was indeed once on the list of the top ten villains, but that is in the past.”

"Not worth mentioning."

Feng Yunxiao chuckled self-deprecatingly.

"In that case, let's rest. We'll go to the ancient city tonight," Gu Jiancheng said with a smile.

"You're going to the ancient city again tonight? Didn't I tell Brother Gu? It's just a trap!" Feng Yunxiao said in a deep voice.

"Do you think I'm afraid of them?"

"Even if it's a trap, we should see if they have the capability to pull it off," Gu Jiancheng scoffed.

He has no fear.

Gu Jiancheng immediately scoffed.

He will definitely attend the exchange meeting tonight.

“Alright, then I’ll go with you tonight!” Feng Yunxiao nodded.

Immediately, Gu Jiancheng led Chen Xianzhi to sit down cross-legged to the side and continue refining the energy within their bodies.

Soon, darkness fell. Gu Jiancheng left the ant colony to protect Chen Xianzhi, and he and Feng Yunxiao took advantage of the night to head towards the ancient city.

The ancient city was still bustling at this time.

Gu Jiancheng and Feng Yunxiao landed in front of the city gate.

"Let's put on a disguise!"

At this moment, Feng Yunxiao handed over a pill and said with a smile, "It's a secret recipe from my family, and it's very effective."

"No, I have it!"

Gu Jiancheng simply shook his head, then took out a pill and swallowed it. In an instant, his body and appearance began to change.

A moment later, he turned into a short, ugly, and fat man.

Such a disguise effect is so powerful that even a demigod would not be able to see through it.

Feng Yunxiao was taken aback for a moment, then laughed at himself, "Looks like I've been showing off my limited skills before an expert!"

Soon after, the two successfully disguised themselves and entered the city.

The exchange was held in an inn in the ancient city, with cultivators from the three major sects surrounding the inn, concealing their presence.

However, to participate in the exchange, one needs to pay one thousand Void Spirit Pearls, which raises the bar.

Therefore, when Gu Jiancheng and his companion entered the inn, they discovered that there were only a few dozen people participating in the exchange meeting.

Those who want to participate in the exchange must have valuable treasures, or want to obtain valuable treasures. Even if a thousand Void Spirit Pearls is not a small amount, they still have to participate.

"Brother Gu, can you sense it? There are experts hidden all around. Almost all the true disciples of the three major sects in this ancient city have arrived!"

Feng Yunxiao said in a deep voice.

Now that they've entered the exchange program, it's going to be extremely difficult for them to leave.

"Yeah, but they're all just trash!"

Gu Jiancheng nodded, his Divine Eyes flashing. Under his perception, there were more than ten powerful individuals hidden within this exchange meeting!

Moreover, the cultivation levels of these ten people were almost all at the half-step Dao Integration Realm!

"Hehe, welcome everyone to this exchange meeting."

"The doujinshi exchange event is jointly organized by our three major sects, and we are also jointly responsible for the security of this exchange event."

"Everyone, please line up and bring your treasures to the stage."

At this moment, on the high platform of the exchange meeting, a cultivator shrouded in a gray-white robe finished speaking and then stepped down from the platform.

"Hehe, I'll go first!"

Just then, a strange laugh suddenly rang out, and a figure leaped onto the high platform. This person did not even bother to conceal his appearance or figure.

Although his appearance was unsightly, his cultivation had reached the peak of the Refining Void Realm, and his combat strength was not weak.

"I want to use this to exchange for a refining material, as long as its quality reaches the pseudo-saint level!"

As the monk spoke, he raised his hand and offered up a walnut.

However, the walnut looked broken and unremarkable.

"Wei Tao, what kind of junk is this? You actually have the nerve to offer it up for exchange?!"

"Exactly, a broken walnut can boost brainpower?"

However, the cultivators below couldn't help but sneer, clearly failing to recognize the item's value.

But the moment Gu Jiancheng saw the walnut, his eyes couldn't help but sparkle.

These walnuts are no ordinary ones; the system indicates that they are the seeds of the ancient sacred peach!

Although it may not look good, it still contains a touch of sacredness, and it may not be unable to be nurtured into something great!

Once completed, this item will absolutely rival any Saint-level treasure!

"Heh, what do you know? This is a priceless treasure that I risked my life to obtain in an ancient ruin. If you don't recognize its value, then shut up!"

Wei Tao scoffed, but then remained proudly standing on the high platform.

But after a long while, no one spoke up, clearly no one wanted to trade his broken walnut.

After all, the materials for refining pseudo-saint-level artifacts are extremely precious!

This made Wei Tao gradually feel somewhat embarrassed.

Finally, he muttered something under his breath and was about to slink off the stage.

Actually, he didn't know whether the walnuts were treasures or not; he was just gambling.

"I'm willing to trade with you!"

But at that moment, Gu Jiancheng, who was sitting at the back of the group, suddenly stood up and spoke.

Today, this peach pit is essential to him!
