C2280 Fortuitous Encounter with an Old Friend
At the very front of the stairs, there was a notice board with the rules of a small trade fair written on it.
However, the purpose of this was to send out a request for purchase. For example, a cultivator would need something in exchange or at a price.
It could be said that he had fully displayed the functions of the trade fair.
If he wanted to get himself a stall to sell his goods, he only needed to pay the fee to register it. However, Chen Xiao wasn't in the mood to do so.
He casually walked back and forth on the plaza. In order to not arouse suspicion, he even bought some useful spirit materials.
After strolling around for a while, he suddenly stopped at a stall.
At first glance, there was nothing special about this stall; a man and a woman, both dressed normally, had a pile of spirit grasses placed in front of them.
There were Purple Ling Flowers and Spirit Nurturing Grass, which were very common things, but one of them caught Chen Xiao's attention.
"I wonder how much this Blue Conch Root is sold for?" He raised his head and stared at the man and woman as he spoke.
Obviously, the two of them had gone through some disguise and dressing up. The woman looked chubby, just like a village girl. The man had a full beard and looked simple. No matter how one looked at it, he looked like a farmer.
He seemed very low-key and didn't want to be noticed.
"Thirty Divine Origin Stones for one. Would you like one?" The village nun asked with a slightly restrained tone.
Chen Xiao paused for a moment, thought for a while and said, "Yes, I want all of these Jade Conch Roots and this one. Here."
He happily paid and put the items away.
The bearded man's face was filled with joy as he hurriedly said, "Thank you, Brother."
In the blink of an eye, Chen Xiao bought most of the spiritual herbs at the two people's stalls. At that moment, they didn't set up their stalls anymore and hastily packed their things before leaving.
Chen Xiao seemed to be deep in thought as he looked at the two of them hurrying away.
Naturally, he would not act out of kindness to them for no reason. Although the two of them had carefully concealed their identities, the familiar mana fluctuations from their bodies and the Jade Conch Root from the deep sea dragon palace exposed their identities completely.
"Hua Sanniang and Ping Dong, how did the two of them appear on the island? Logically speaking, after the two of them left the Endless Sea, they should have immediately returned to White Stone City. Why did they appear in the completely opposite direction?"
Chen Xiao's face turned dark as he started to think.
Thinking about how she was being chased by the Dragon God Palace, fleeing without thinking of a path before escaping to the western seas, that was understandable.
The two of them had decisively left the ruins of the Dragon Palace. If they hadn't gone in, then it could be said that they had escaped unscathed.
He must have met with some unforeseen circumstances along the way and was forced to come here.
He had been friends with Hua Sanniang and Dong Tianleng during their tribulations. Although they weren't exactly friends, he was willing to help out with things that they could help out with.
Suddenly, Chen Xiao's face darkened and killing intent exploded in his eyes.
"Hmph, reckless."
He did not stay any longer and left the manor. After passing through the fog, he walked in the direction that Ping Dong and Hua Sanniang had left in.
Just before, he noticed that cultivators had malicious intentions as they followed the two of them.
In the air, after carefully camouflaging themselves, Ping Dong and Hua Sanniang flew at their highest speeds, intending to leave the island.
"That brother just now is really a good person, he bought almost all the stuff in one go." Ping Dong laughed.
Obviously, the two of them did not recognize Chen Xiao. On the other hand, Chen Xiao recognized the two of them. After all, Chen Xiao was no longer the same as before and he was even stronger.
Hua Sanniang let out a sigh of relief and said: "With this money, we can enter the Golden Island and temporarily hide."
At this point, Ping Dong's face instantly darkened.
"That guy's like a ghost that hasn't left. He chased me all the way to the Western Sea and still hasn't stopped. How hateful, cough cough cough ~"
Ping Dong cursed angrily. His face turned pale and he started to cough with all his might. Apparently, he was injured.
"Are you okay?" Hua Sanniang said with concern.
"Heh, for you, even I can't die."
"Look at you! Ai, let's not talk for now. Let's hurry to the Golden Island."
"Mm. Alright."
The two of them had made up their minds to leave for the Golden Island as soon as possible. As long as they arrived at the Golden Island, they would be safe for the time being.
However, if they wanted to leave, someone would not allow it.
"Want to leave?" "Hehe, it's not too late to leave all the items behind!"
The air suddenly turned cold and a cold wind blew from the horizon, causing the two of them to feel a chill in their hearts. They couldn't help but shiver and feel their hair stand on end.
A huge sense of danger surged in his heart.
A black clothed man holding a long saber walked out from the chilly wind. He stared at the two of them with a sneer on his face. His eyes were cold and emotionless, as if he was looking at a dead man.
"Who are you? "What do you want?" Ping Dong asked subconsciously.
But as soon as the words left his mouth, he felt that his question was superfluous. The other party had followed the trail and blocked the two. Other than killing them for the treasure, there was no other reason.
Hua Sanniang's reaction was even more acute. With a gloomy look in her eyes, she asked, "Are you from Greencloud Island?"
"This …" Ping Dong paused for a moment. He also thought of this point and his complexion immediately became even more unsightly.
The man laughed: "You are quite smart. Since you have guessed my identity then I will not let you two off so easily. You should leave behind your lives and things."
"This Greencloud Island is so dark, so f * cking dark. They actually sent people to kill us on the way." Ping Dong cursed.
Before this, he had actually become a lot more relaxed. After all, this was the Western Sea, and there was a large golden island overseeing this area. There was a certain level of restriction within this island.
Even if cultivators were to fight amongst themselves, and you tried to steal from me, you would have to abide by certain rules.
However, what he did not expect was that there was actually such a hidden intention to kill in this seemingly amiable Clear Sky Exchange.
If he said too much, he must have realized that the two's strength was average and they were injured. In addition, their new faces didn't have any power behind them, so he wanted to kill them to steal their wealth.
His heart was dark, but his hands were even darker.
The man in black burst out his aura. A horrifying cold wind surrounded his body. His speed was extremely fast. In a flash, he chopped out a blade attack.
"Be careful."
Hua Sanniang shouted loudly. She held a circular magic tool in her hand and charged forward.
Dang, a crisp sound was heard. The huge force on the long blade directly sent Hua Sanniang flying several hundred feet away. The blade qi was even more terrifying than the Yin wind.
This incomparably cold blade energy crazily drilled into her body, causing the speed of her circulation of her Fa Li to drop by 30% and become extremely stagnant.
"Sanniang!" Ping Dong became anxious as his eyes turned red.
A hint of despair surfaced in Hua Sanniang's heart.
