Chapter 2374: Everyone Has Their Own Abacus

"My goodness! This auction is really full of hidden Dragons, so many Old things have come."

Ye Bufan's heart was in turmoil; it was clear that both groups were after him.

It seemed his previous preparations were very necessary, otherwise, it would be really difficult to leave here today.

However, this also made him a bit confused. Who exactly brought out this five-colored mystic stone? Was it these two families, or someone else?

His mind was filled with thoughts, but his face remained as calm as an ancient well, maintaining his previous expression, as if he hadn't noticed their probing.

Xin Wunu's Divine Sense, like Qian Wuji's before, paused briefly on him before sweeping past, apparently not finding any flaws.

Ye Bufan had already secretly decided that he must be careful today and avoid attracting the attention of these two Old things unless absolutely necessary.

Otherwise, escaping from the hands of a Great Ascension Peak would be truly difficult.

In a private room not far from him, Qian Wuji, the Sect Master of Wuliang Temple, and Elder Yuan Tiancheng were seated together.

Qian Wuji slowly opened his eyes. He had just swept the entire auction with his Divine Sense but hadn't found any trace of Ye Bufan.

"What's going on? I didn't see that Ye!"

He turned to Yuan Tiancheng, "Are you sure there's a five-colored mystic stone at today's auction?"

"Sect Master, rest assured, I've already confirmed it. There will be no mistake, one hundred percent."

Yuan Tiancheng said, "I've thoroughly investigated during this period. That Ye stayed in Tianxing Empire Royal City precisely for this five-colored mystic stone.

It's been almost two months now, and he hasn't found it. Now that there's news, he definitely won't let it go."

"Logically, that should be the case."

Qian Wuji frowned, "But why haven't I found his shadow in this auction? Could it be that Ye is hiding?"

Yuan Tiancheng nodded: "It's possible. That Ye is very cunning."

Qian Wuji thought for a moment: "No matter what, we absolutely cannot lose this clue.

How many High-Grade Spirit Stones did you prepare this time? If the situation isn't right later, we'll bid for that five-colored mystic stone.

As long as we have this thing, we won't be afraid that Ye won't take the bait. We must capture him then.

Remember, we want him alive. Do not kill him casually."

"Sect Master, please rest assured. I brought a full forty million High-Grade Spirit Stones this time. It will definitely be foolproof."

Yuan Tiancheng had money in his pocket, so he wasn't flustered and appeared full of confidence.

Finally, he asked, "Sect Master, can't we just kill that Ye directly? Why do we need to capture him alive?

And bidding for that stone is estimated to cost one to two million High-Grade Spirit Stones. Is it worth it?"

"Of course, it's worth it. There are some things you can't just look at on the surface."

Qian Wuji said, "The five-colored mystic stone is a treasure, and it's valuable in our hands. If we're not happy, we can sell it later.

Most importantly, our Wuliang Temple's Four Great Elders have been missing for almost a month now, and there's still no news. In my opinion, it's one hundred percent related to that Ye.

But he is just a small ant at the Great Ascension Stage. How could he kill our Wuliang Temple's Four Great Elders? There must be a secret involved."

Yuan Tiancheng's eyes lit up: "Sect Master means that Ye has some powerful treasure on him?"

"It's hard to say now, but there's definitely something we don't know about."

Qian Wuji said, "So we must capture him. Then everything will be clear."

Yuan Tiancheng nodded repeatedly: "Sect Master is wise, your subordinate understands."

Qian Wuji added: "Oh, and to deal with that Ye, we are temporarily cooperating with the Demonic Sect. This news absolutely cannot be leaked, otherwise, our Wuliang Temple cannot bear the consequences."

Yuan Tiancheng said: "Sect Master, rest assured, your subordinate knows what to do!"

While the two were talking, in another private room nearby, four people were sitting together. Three of the old men were precisely the Demonic Sect's Three Great Elders in Tianqiong State.

Opposite them was a beautiful woman with a pretty face, none other than Lan Meier, who had escaped from Tianluo State.

Xin Wunu glanced at her and said kindly, "Girl, where did you get this five-colored mystic stone? It must have been difficult for you."

Lan Meier smiled sweetly: "Grand Elder, this is nothing. It's just that I happened to find out who bought the five-colored mystic stone before.

Fortunately, that Old thing hadn't had time to use it, otherwise, it wouldn't have been easy for us to get it back.

I directly led people to kill him and retrieve the five-colored mystic stone."

As she spoke, a brilliant smile remained on her face, as if she wasn't talking about killing people, but about an ordinary matter.

"After so many days, and so much trouble, is it worth it?"

Xin Wubei snorted coldly. He had lost an arm in the previous battle with Ximen Jiayin, and now he was filled with malice, wishing he could immediately cut Ye Bufan into ten thousand pieces.

"If you ask me, that Ye should just be captured and killed directly. Why make it so troublesome?"

"Second Elder, please don't be angry. I did this with consideration."

Lan Meier still had a smiling face, "First, not to mention that Ye is with Ximen Jiayin, it's easy for our Demonic Sect to defeat them with our current strength, but it's difficult to keep both of them.

Moreover, that Ye also has a ninth-grade Yao Beast by his side, which is very powerful. I'm not quite sure to what extent, but in short, the Three Great Elders of Tianluo State all died by its hand."

Xin Wunu nodded: "That's right, this method is the most stable. As long as we lure that Ye out, we are fully confident in capturing him."

"Ye Bufan can make a ninth-grade Yao Beast advance and break our Dark Night Demon Formation, so he must have secrets we don't know about.

If we can extract this secret, our Demonic Sect will surely gain immense benefits."

Seeing that Xin Wubei's expression was still gloomy, Lan Meier added, "Moreover, that Ye's Medical skill is extraordinary, and he refined a Medicinal Pill called the Heaven Mending Pill.

As long as we get this Medicinal Pill, the Second Elder's injuries can be recovered immediately, and the Rebirth of a severed limb will be a matter of minutes."

"What? Are you telling the truth?"

Upon hearing that his severed arm could regenerate, Xin Wubei's eyes immediately lit up.

"Of course, I saw it with my own eyes when I was in Great Shun Empire before."

Lan Meier was very good at discerning people's hearts and knew what the Second Elder wanted now.

"Before, Zhang He, the Grand Supervisor of the Daxing Empire in Tianluo State, and now Zhao Huiying of the Tianxing Empire, both took the Heaven Mending Pill, repairing their broken bodies, and are no longer eunuchs."

"That's great! We must capture that Ye."

Xin Wubei was full of excitement. Losing an arm had almost halved his strength, and his heart was originally filled with despair and malice, but he didn't expect to find an opportunity for the Rebirth of a severed limb.

Third Elder Xin Wuxi said: "Grand Elder, the auction is about to begin. Did you find that Ye just now?"
