人妻卧室迎合领导进入

As he discussed catching sea beasts, a fanatical look flashed in Shi Zhong’s eyes, showing his peculiar fondness for fishing.

“So, he’s an old hand from the Cultivation World.”

Lu Xuan privately exclaimed, then after thinking for a moment, he said,

“Since Friend Shi has invited me so enthusiastically, I would be rude to refuse. If given the chance, I certainly hope to learn from him about catching sea beasts.”

“No problem at all, I’ll teach you how to catch a Dragon Carp.”

The languid young man was more impressed with Lu Xuan after he promptly agreed to the offer.

Initially, when he heard that a new Foundation Establishment Cultivator from the Sky Sword Sect was stationed on Void Nether Island, but had isolated himself, spending all his time with spirit plants, he was somewhat dismissive.

But after meeting him, Lu Xuan’s frankness won him some favourable impressions. Plus, both of them were disciples of a Great Sect, identifying with each other as they lived on such a deserted island.

“Friend Lu, this is my communication talisman. If you ever want to experience sea beast fishing, feel free to contact me.”

He gave Lu Xuan a White Jade Talisman and then left casually.

Lu Xuan put away the talisman, feeling a bit intrigued.

He was curious about the sea beasts in the Boundless Sea. As long as he didn’t venture too deep, it was highly unlikely to encounter third-grade or fourth­grade sea beasts in the shallow waters, ensuring safety.

While he was pondering over this, an old man came into the room.

The old man was thin, with a severe appearance, and a subtle aura of decay seemed to surround him.

“Friend Lu, I’ve heard a lot about you. Finally, I have the chance to visit you today.”

“I am Ning DeShan, a dying man from the Ning Family of Chongning Island.”

The severe elderly man saluted with fist and palm together.

“Ah, Friend Ning.” Lu Xuan reciprocated the salutation with an impassive response.

“The reason for my visit is to ask for your help.”

The old man with severe look opened his triangular shaped eyes and glanced at Lu Xuan.

“Please speak, Friend Ning. If I can assist, I’ll certainly do my utmost.”

“Here’s the thing.

I heard that the Void Nether Spirit Fish on Void Nether Island were acting strangely some time ago, but you and the Song Family worked together to resolve the issue.

Unfortunately, the abnormal behaviour of the spiritual fish has now spread to the waters around Chongning Island, sending most of our island’s farmed spiritual fish into a frenzy.”

“Would Friend Lu perhaps disclose to me the method of relieving the spirit fish’s abnormalities? I could make an Heart Demon vow promising not to reveal the method, and also compensate you generously.”

The severe elderly man spoke solemnly.

Initially, he hadn’t wanted to deal with Lu Xuan directly, but with increasing number of spirit fish being lost on the Ning Family’s island, he had no choice but to come to Lu Xuan for help.

After the spiritual fish raised by the Ning Family started to behave abnormally, Lady Ning immediately detained the one-eyed monk, who was the major suspect, and rigorously interrogated him. However, they failed to extract from him the method of separating the Invisible Algae from the spirit fish.

The one-eyed monk managed to acquire a large number of Invisible Algae by chance and was aware of their near-invisible characteristics, but lacked Lu Xuan’s profound knowledge.

Under the Ning Family’s coercive measures, he fabricated some methods which were quickly proven ineffective, leading to more brutal and terrifying tortures.

In the meantime, the Ning Family made several attempts to contact their accomplice left on Void Nether Island but received no reply.

Subsequently, the Song Family lifted the blockade on their waters, indicating to the forces around Void Nether Island that the Void Nether Spirit Fish had completely returned to normal.

The members of the Ning Family made constant inferences and eventually set their sights on Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan’s fondness for spirit plants had been widely known on Void Nether Island, and given his upbringing in the Sky Sword Sect, there might be knowledge about the Invisible Algae recorded in his sect. Therefore, he was possibly the one who had solved the issue with the Spirit Fish.

Although spirit fish were not the Ning Family’s main business, the income from the spirit stone they brought was not insignificant. Additionally, if the waters were left abandoned, it would only bring more adverse impacts. After weighing the pros and cons, Ning DeShan decided to seek Lu Xuan’s help.

“What are you talking about, spirit fish or non-spirit fish? I don’t understand, Friend Ning.”

Lu Xuan frowned and asked skeptically.

“Friend Lu, one should live and let live, for you may meet again in the future. You helped the Song Family solve the problem with the Invisible Algae, so why won’t you help the Ning Family? The Ning Family will provide a satisfactory reward!”

The severe elderly man spoke a bit eagerly.

“Friend Ning, while many people are aware of the abnormal behaviour of the spirit fish in the Song Family’s waters, only a few know the root cause is the Invisible Algae. Where did you hear that from?”

“Could it be…”

Lu Xuan’s mouth curved upward, revealing a faint smile where one might or might not exist.

“If you do not want to help, so be it, it is not necessary to spout blood, and slander the Ning Family.”

Seeing Lu Xuan’s reaction, a vicious glint flashed in the old man’s eyes as he turned and walked away indignantly.

Lu Xuan laid on the spirit Wood chair, resting calmly without being affected by Ning DeShan’s reaction.

Having chosen to leave a large amount of Invisible Algae in Ning Family’s water, he naturally had no intention of helping them resolve it.

As he was contemplating this, a lucid voice interrupted his thoughts from below.

“Fellow Daoists, welcome to Aurora Island to attend the auction held by our Aurora Business Association.”

“I am sure you all are clear about the rules, so without further ado, I hope everyone can find what they desire.”

“Let the auction begin!”

A middle-aged Cultivator below the stage enthusiastically announced, followed by a beautiful young girl carrying a light blue Flying Sword onto the stage.

“Blue Wind Sword, a second grade flying sword with Wind Type Talisman patterns inscribed on it. When invoked, it strikes as fast as lightning, having one of the highest attack speeds among magic artifacts of the same rank. The opening bid is…”

While Lu Xuan was listening to the introduction from the middle-aged Cultivator, he was observing the entire auction house.

More than two hundred cultivators sat in the hall. Most were Qi Cultivators, with less than twenty in the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Among them, there were three or four like Lu Xuan, disciples of great sects who were in charge of a particular island. There were a few Foundation Establishment Cultivators from families like Ning DeShan’s, possibly Loose Cultivators hiding on desolate islands, and the rest of the Foundation Establishment cultivators had come here due to its reputation.

One item of treasure after another was brought to the stage, causing a scramble among many Qi Cultivators, and aggressive bidding kept breaking out. Yet, Lu Xuan didn’t seem interested.

The treasures were mostly Magic Artifacts, Charms, Elixirs, and other common items, primarily of the second grade. They didn’t appeal to Lu Xuan, who was about to break through to the Foundation Establishment mid-term.

Occasionally Spirit Plants and Spirit Beasts would appear, but they were mature individuals, not the Spiritual Seeds, Demon Beasts’ eggs or younglings that Lu Xuan was looking for.

“Next up for auction is a rare Merfolk.”

“This Merfolk was caught by a Foundation Establishment Seniors from the deep sea. Unlike other hybrid Merfolk, this female merfolk is one of the most beautiful with pure blood, high Spiritual Intelligence, and an exquisite figure. By keeping her in your settlement, you can admire and play with her at your leisure.”

The middle-aged cultivator’s words carried an alluring power.

Lu Xuan looked up to see two burly men carrying a large transparent water tank onto the stage.
