C162 The Old Man Was Still Practicing Martial Arts

"Either this kid knows about Ancient Saint's inheritance or someone is guiding him from behind." The Great Elder said to himself in confusion.

Under normal circumstances, how could there be a young man who spent so many Spiritual Stones to compete with them for the scroll? He must have noticed something.

"Looks like we can't keep him alive. Should we send an elder out to eliminate him?"

Liu Nan was slightly hesitant as well. Their main target was still the scroll, and if someone died, then even more unexpected events would probably occur.

"Continue to send people to keep a close eye on him. Prepare to suppress him at all times. If there is any movement of escape, kill him on the spot!"

The Great Elder was ruthless. Even if he had offended a colossus like the Yuan Sect, he had no choice but to do so.

"You've worked hard. Don't leave the family during this period of time."

In order to be safe, Liu Nan gave Liu Sen a restraining order.

After these two old men made their decision, the entire Liu Family began to operate. Many disciples went out to investigate, while the powerful protectors were preparing to hunt Chen Fan down.

Although Liu Nan had specifically issued a strict order prohibiting any discussion about the scroll, this Heavy Treasure must be kept a secret, and not a single bit of information could be leaked out.

If other powers or sects really found out about Ancient Saint's inheritance, it would definitely cause even greater trouble for the Liu Family. At that time, it would be hard to say whether they would be able to wipe it all out in one fell swoop.

Those disciples had also noticed the anxiety of the higher ups. Naturally, they didn't dare to neglect it. The overall atmosphere became even more tense.

Just like the fury of the Yuan Sect earlier, with the family as the core, an invisible net was being spread out. The upper limit was a thousand miles in radius.

If they were further away, it would be difficult for them to reach it. This was the blockade that Liu Nan had personally drawn.

...

Although Chen Fan did not take the matter of the Liu Family to heart, it was obvious that he had underestimated the former's determination towards this scroll. In the next few days, he would be investigated and followed from time to time.

However, when he turned back and wanted to confront them head-on, those guys immediately ran away. They didn't give him a chance to attack at all. He always felt very aggrieved.

He didn't care about the distance of a thousand miles. He didn't care about his attitude at all. He continued to walk around in a carefree manner. However, he would occasionally change his appearance.

The disciples of the Liu Family who were chasing after him were often lost. They would have to go through a lot of searching before they could continue to search for him. Therefore, it took them a lot of time to search for him.

They even reported the news to Liu Nan. They had confirmed Chen Fan's whereabouts just a moment ago, and it would soon be overturned by the new situation.

In this way, they would never be able to surround and kill him, and it would be even more difficult for those protector experts who were scattered all over the place to act rashly. He was not even sure if he was being tracked or not.

Under Deer God's persuasion, Chen Fan was able to think things through. They were just small Lou Lou who were used to scout the way. There must be some true experts of the Liu Family behind them.

When the time came, they would have a good fight. Perhaps there would be other unexpected gains. It was likely that a large clan that could easily take out a million Spiritual Stones must have a very rich family.

With this thought in mind, he passed through several cities in succession. Finally, he stopped outside his teacher's place. There was no other reason. He only heard that the Auction was going to be held here.

As his current strength had yet to mature to the point where he could travel to the Desolate Hell, there was no point in carrying this scroll. At the very least, he would have to wait until he broke through to the Core Formation Stage realm before taking the risk.

In any case, he had nothing else to do. The Auction had a special attraction to Chen Fan now, and he might be able to find something similar to a scroll.

"Excuse me, can I ask where the Auction is in this city?"

Chen Fan was just about to ask for directions, but was stopped by an old man.

"Young man, I see that your bones are amazing. You are a rare martial arts genius that only appears once in a hundred years..."

Before he could finish, Chen Fan turned his head. He knew better than the old man about these people's words. Perhaps some things were passed down from his era.

Looking at the old man's attire, he wore a green robe and a goatee on his chin. He held an old flag in his hand. It seemed it would be more appropriate to change the few words on the flag to the old man.

"There's no need to talk about martial arts geniuses. I've known about them for many years." Chen Fan choked the old man to death with just one sentence.

"Then do you want to perform a divination? "Divination, divination, and fate. These are all things that I am very good at. This is absolutely accurate, never making a mistake."

The goateed elder was still unwilling to accept this. Then, he tugged at Chen Fan again. His fingers even moved a few times as if they were decent. It was unknown if it was true or not. In any case, there wasn't the slightest fluctuation of Spiritual Energy.

"Forget it. Even I am not sure of my own life. How can you figure it out?"

He shook his head. He did not expect to get any more information from Chen Fan. He was just about to leave. However, this old man was quite persistent. Perhaps he hadn't opened for business for a long time.

"Really, really. I've never lied to anyone. These are all the truth."

"Since you've already said so, then I'll just support you. Have you seen these patterns before?"

Chen Fan did not want to reject it directly. He simply waved his hand and the patterns on the scroll appeared in the void.

"Hmm, isn't it the mark of a certain Ancient Saint? Let me think about it. Which one is it?"

The old man stroked his beard and seemed to be deep in thought.

This time, it was Chen Fan's turn to be surprised. Originally, he only wanted to use this pattern to force the old man to back off. He thought that it was impossible for the latter to have met him before.

Unexpectedly, he actually said the word 'Ancient Saint'. How could he not be surprised? It was just that he had randomly met an old man in Changyu City. This was just too much of a coincidence.

"Have you heard of that Ancient Saint?"

"Why are young people nowadays so rude? I need to use you to address me respectfully, okay?" This guy had a lot of things to do, so he replied discontentedly.

Chen Fan was speechless.

He really had an impulse. Just tell me who you are. TangTang's ten-thousand-year-old monster would be taught a lesson by a shriveled old man.

"Can you explain to me in detail the origins of that Ancient Saint, and the background of these patterns?"

He had no choice but to lower his head when he was under the roof. Chen Fan pondered for a moment and could only give in. It seemed that this old man did know some secrets.

"Speaking of which, it's really quite old. Moreover, Yu Ming left behind some karma in the neighboring city and directly gave birth to a great clan like the Liu Family."

Goatee shook the small flag in his hand and shook his head again. If Deer God were to merge with him, he would definitely be able to sit firmly on the throne of the leader of North Domain.

Although what he said was all insider information, coupled with his actions and attire, it did not sound like the truth. He would rather believe that he was making things up.

"So the Liu Family has such a connection. What does that have to do with this pattern?"

Chen Fan asked. He really didn't know if he should sigh that this world was too small or something. He could talk to Ancient Saint about heaven and earth just by casually meeting an old man.

As for the Liu Family, he didn't care about it at all. Even though it was partially related to Ancient Saint, it was only an explanation for why they were bidding so crazily at the auction.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. Not only are the youngsters nowadays rude, it seems like they are also trying to get nothing out of it. They didn't even show any sign of wanting to listen to my lecture."

Unexpectedly, the old man was still rubbing his hands together. He gently twisted his hands and made a gesture. Almost everyone could recognize him. He had been traveling in the Cultivation Realm for a long time.

"Name your price. I really want to know the connection between these lines and Yu Ming. Don't think too much about it. It's completely out of respect for senior."

At this moment, Chen Fan added another sentence to avoid arousing the suspicion of this old man. When he went out, he would definitely have to be on guard. Perhaps this was the secret investigation of the Liu Family.

"Logically speaking, such a secret is related to the fate of the Liu Family. However, I have always been fair. Those big families have exploited us many times. It's their turn to suffer."

"Three hundred Spiritual Stones. You can ask whatever you want. This is the bowl of rice that I am eating. I will definitely tell you everything I know and I will keep my mouth shut."

The goateed old man kept nagging. In the end, the price he offered wasn't low. It was enough for ordinary Foundation Building Stage warriors to spend more than half a month.

Hearing this, Chen Fan didn't bargain with him. These Spiritual Stones could still be taken out by him, so he handed them over to the goateed old man.

"Right, you have to tell me exactly where this vein was obtained from. If it involves a taboo that should not be mentioned, it is impossible for this old man to reveal it."

The goateed old man revealed a set of yellow teeth as he spoke with a smile, and his muddy old eyes revealed a crafty and bright glow.

It was obvious that he had the thought of taking advantage of Chen Fan after seeing how happy Chen Fan was. This was the first time this had happened. There was actually someone who wanted to pry out more medicinal Spiritual Stones from the five supreme beings' bodies.

Even though he had to pay such a great price to obtain the scroll, a few hundred Chen Fans were nothing to Chen Fan. He decisively took out a thousand and handed them over.

"Tell me everything you know. Don't make any mistakes or mistakes. If I find anything to hide, don't even think about taking your old life."

Chen Fan's voice sounded cold, and his tone became much harsher. A majestic pressure spread out from his body. Even the passers-by didn't notice the goateed old man at all.

Compared to these Spiritual Stones, he was even more curious about why the old man knew so many secrets. He immediately put on a cold face, and used both softness and toughness at the same time. This was the best strategy to deal with this.

"Haha, looks like the young man's temper isn't small. Well, this is not the place to talk."
