Chapter 490 – Cang Yang Yu (2/2)

Fu Zhong Shan and a few others were inside the big hall, all of them were listening to Jiang Yang’s detailed explanation of the battle.

“Disciple was meditating, when I suddenly sensed a person barging into the grassland. Disciple was extremely shocked, before the person had entered the grassland, disciple did not sense the intruder at all. Disciple was determined to hold the intruder back, and activated [Impetuous Grass Needle Shadow]. Disciple thought it was stabilized, and when the circle of grass released the [Impetuous Grass Needle Shadow]. But the opponent was definitely a disciple of a saint too, I did not expect him to have a method to dispel my technique, and it surprised me. A spirit general holding onto an umbrella suddenly appeared above his head too. This spirit general looked to be a 3 to 4 year old infant, and the stars on the umbrella floated out, upon spinning the umbrella, all my grass needles were completely absorbed in, causing me to lose contact. And just then there was an explosion, the opponent seemed to have realized he had failed, and used the spirit general to fly him up into the air.”

Fu Zhong Shan’s face turned darker, and suddenly asked: “You said the spirit general flew him up into the air?”

“Yes!” Jiang Yang revealed a look of recalling: “That spirit general suddenly grabbed onto his neck, spun the umbrella, and soared into the air, and this disciple was unable to catch up.”

Li Ruo said in a low voice: “When I reacted, he was gone without a trace. From the looks of it, the person should not be a saint, and the spirit general is the odd one! A child using an umbrella? Senior brother do you recall any strong martial artist that has that?”

Fu Zhong Shan shook his head: “I never heard of that before.”

He wavered for a moment, then said: “The one that I fought with, was a blood meridians saint, and he should have sustained some light injuries.”

“Blood Meridians saint?” Li Ruo’s face changed: “Onyx Soul!”

The two words caused everyone in the hall to have a change in expression. To them, that was undoubtedly the worst case scenario, Onyx Soul’s strength was unfathomable, and when they had set their sights on something, they were unstoppable.

“Seems like someone already saw through our act.” Fu Zhong shan said: “Since they have entered and investigated, we have already been exposed.”

“What do we do now?” Li Ruo asked.

Fu Zhong Shan’s eyes turned to look at his daughter Fu Zi Hong who was seated quietly at the side: “Hong’er, you have more ideas, tell us what you think.”

Fu Zi Hong was gentle and refined, a composed and stylish girl, her appearance was beautiful. She said: “If Onyx Soul wants to cut in, then our situation is not good. If that is the case, daughter has an idea, we can publicly sell to everyone.”

“Publicly sell?” Fu Zhong Shan frowned.

“Yes.” Fu Zi Hong continued: “From the looks of it, we cannot avoid the hoorah coming out from it. Why not just assume the stance of wanting to sell for a good price, and attract even more buyers to enter.”

Li Ruo was enlightened: “Hong’er’s meaning is to cause them to contend against each other?”

“No.” Fu Zi Hong shook her head: “We are trying to delay time, and only by enduring this time can we succeed. So we need to broadcast to as far as possible, and attract even more attention, so the more buyers there are, at least Onyx Soul will be restrained. We can think of a few ways to delay, for example we are not lacking in case, and the opponent must provide something that can move us.”

Fu Zhong Shan and Li Ruo looked at each other, nodding their heads in unison.

“Good! That is what we will do!” Fu Zhong Shan smacked the table as he came to the conclusion.

When everyone dispersed, only Fu Zhong Shan and Li Ruo remained, both of them keep silent. After a long while, Fu Zhong Shan spoke: “Let’s go, we shall go see Master.”

The ice cold stone steps, led them down deeper and deeper, an indescribable ripple flooded the passage. Although the two of them were saints, but they still shivered uncontrollably.

The two men walked through the long passage for over a minute before reaching the end.

A gigantic stone room appeared in front of them. Inside the stone room, a cold qi leaked out. The four walls were covered with a dense ice layer, the density of the cold wave was astonishing.

A frail old man sat cross legged in meditation, his face was covered with wrinkles, his appearance serene.

“You both came.”

The gentle and warm voice sounded out, the old man opened his eyes.

“Master!” Fu Zhong Shan and Li Ruo shouted in unison, this was their master, Cang Yang Yu.

“You have worked hard.” Cang Yang Yu said warmly: “I already know of everything that is happening outside. Do not worry too much, there are some things that are unavoidable. Hong’er’s suggestion was good, just go along with it.”

“Master, how long more do you roughly need? Us disciples cannot keep it down much longer!” Li Ruo asked respectfully.

Cang Yang Yu extended his hand out, a treasure appeared in his hand, it was snow white with six extensions, at the tip of every extension were moving eyeballs.

It was the popular Sextans Eye.

A treasure that had never been heard before at all, was just a silver star treasure.

The current Sextans eye was 80% golden in color, and only the center piece of it still silver.

Sextans Eye continued to spin in the air, it was like a snowflake, the six eyeballs releasing different sets of light aura, with an unspeakable pressure emitting out from it suddenly filling the entire stone room, causing Fu Zhong Shan and Li Ruo to tense up, as if they could not move.

“One more month.” Cang Yang Yu said warmly: “I only need one more month, and Sextans Eye can become a gold treasure.”

Li Ruo hesitated for a moment, then asked carefully: “Master, is the rumor circulating in the market true?”

Cang Yang Yu sighed softly, his eyes becoming dimmer: “You are all looking down on it. Unknowingly, so many years have past. There are some things that are difficult for you all to understand.”

Fu Zhong Shan and Li Ruo were stunned, Cang Yang Yu’s sentence of “You are all looking down on it”, caused them to look at each other involuntarily.

Could it be….that it was even more powerful than what the market was saying?

Both of them could see the shock in each other’s eyes.
