Just now, Li Poshan sent a telepathic message to Wu Tian, telling him to do his best to win this woman.
Li Poshan also gave his reasons.
First, this woman must be very strong. She possessed a powerful concealment cultivation method that even he could not see through.
Second, the other party was from the White Stone Tribe.
Back when the White Stone Tribe was at the height of its power, they even took the initiative to attack the Yanhuang Tribe, a war that lasted for many years.
Their justification was incredibly overbearing: to punish traitors. Any half-blood with White Stone Tribe bloodlines was to be executed.
At that time, most of the White Stone Tribe had already integrated with Yanhuang. By doing this, they clearly intended to destroy Yanhuang.
Later, the two sides engaged in actual, bloody warfare.
To deal with Yanhuang, the White Stone Tribe conquered many foreign tribes and forced them to help fight against Yanhuang.
The outcome, naturally, was their defeat.
Not only did Yanhuang kill them, but the foreign tribes they had once conquered also turned against them.
After that, the White Stone Tribe slowly disappeared, completely fading from the stage of history.
Li Poshan felt that since she was a White Stone Tribe member who suddenly appeared and managed to survive until now, she definitely harbored many secrets.
If Wu Tian could earn her favor, there might be quite a few fortuitous encounters waiting for him.
Hearing Li Poshan's words, Wu Tian felt it made sense.
Besides, he still had five hundred catties of spirit stones on hand. Snatching a woman should be relatively easy.
Moreover, this woman was very beautiful, especially with those heterochromatic eyes, one black and one gold, resembling an elegant cat.
He didn't know why, but from the first time he laid eyes on her, he found this woman incredibly charming.
"I bid one hundred and fifty! Growing up, I've never tasted a woman from the White Stone Tribe. I want to explore her deeply."
A middle-aged man revealed a lecherous smile.
"Two hundred!"
"Two hundred and fifty!"
...
Regarding Xianling Nan, although the price wasn't high at the moment, there were many people fighting for her.
Wu Tian didn't expect that there would be quite a few people from foreign tribes wanting this woman.
He directly raised his hand, "Four hundred!"
Wu Tian pushed the price to a critical point again. Under normal circumstances, no expert would be willing to pay four hundred catties of spirit stones just to play with a woman.
A brief silence fell over the surroundings. Many people weighed the pros and cons in their hearts, but ultimately, they all chose to give up.
"Four hundred catties of spirit stones, is there any higher bid?"
The man on the stage looked around.
"Five hundred."
Xu Mu spoke up.
He came this time precisely to prevent Wu Tian from developing a storyline with this level-ten female protagonist. He definitely couldn't let him take Xianling Nan away.
Xu Mu's goal wasn't to snatch this woman for himself; he just needed to sever the connection between Wu Tian and her.
Wu Tian turned to look at Xu Mu. Of course, the current Xu Mu was disguised as a member of the Jiuli Tribe.
"Five hundred and fifty catties!"
Wu Tian called out his entire current stock. He didn't believe this Jiuli Tribe member would keep bidding.
"Five hundred and sixty," Xu Mu continued.
Hearing this, Wu Tian immediately sat down on the grassy slope, no longer speaking.
Over five hundred catties was the maximum amount of spirit stones he could offer right now, mainly because he had wasted too much earlier when bidding for Fu Jinyu.
"Is there any higher bid?"
The middle-aged man in theatrical costume scanned the crowd below.
"Can I write an IOU?" Wu Tian stood up again and asked.
"Of course not. We are all products of the formation; next time, we might not even have our memories," the costumed middle-aged man said with a smile.
Xu Mu crossed his arms, not expecting the other party to be quite good at acting.
"Then I bid five hundred catties of spirit stones, plus a grade-eight natural treasure, the Blood Chrysanthemum."
Wu Tian took out a blood-red chrysanthemum from his spatial ring.
The surrounding crowd gasped in amazement. Although the Blood Chrysanthemum was only grade-eight, it could strengthen one's meridians and was an essential treasure for advancing in cultivation.
Its value was even more precious than many grade-nine natural treasures.
To get a woman, no one expected this person to invest so heavily.
Seeing the other party bring out a natural treasure, Xu Mu knew Wu Tian's spirit stones were clearly depleted.
He didn't need to waste his own spirit stones anymore, so he stood up and said, "She's yours."
After saying that, he left the area. Nalan Shisan and Fu Jinyu followed closely behind him.
Wu Tian snorted coldly. Once he became stronger, he would wipe out the Jiuli Tribe first.
After Xu Mu and the others left the city, he immediately said to the two people beside him, "You guys head back first. I have some business to take care of."
"Xu Mu, you haven't taken a fancy to that White Stone Tribe woman in the cage, have you?"
Fu Jinyu's voice gradually turned cold.
"Absolutely not. I just don't want Wu Tian to get this woman."
Xu Mu felt a bit helpless. "If you don't want to leave, you can stay, but don't interfere with my work. There's no time left."
"Alright, I won't interfere. I'll just follow from a distance, and I'll only help when you tell me to strike."
Fu Jinyu said indifferently.
"Fine."
Xu Mu pulled his black robe hood back up, changing his appearance back into an old man.
He quickly walked back into the city. When he arrived at the stage, he found that they were already weighing the items.
"Alright, the weight is correct, and there's no problem with the natural treasure. This woman is yours."
The costumed man smiled at Wu Tian. "Do you want to..."
Buzz!
The woman in the cage instantly transformed into an old man.
"Fuck! It's you again!"
Wu Tian roared in anger and immediately erupted with power.
The costumed man next to him also raised his hand, but in the next moment, this costumed man swapped positions with Xu Mu and ended up inside the cage.
Swish!
Xu Mu immediately dropped down from the high platform, grabbed the still-bewildered Xianling Nan, and ran towards the distance.
"Fuck! Trying to run!"
Wu Tian immediately gave chase.
At this time, Xianling Nan, who was being carried under one arm by Xu Mu, let out a silvery laugh.
She didn't expect things to take such a dramatic turn.
But Xu Mu didn't care. As long as he could stop the relationship between her and Wu Tian, it was enough.
He ran while looking back, finding that only Wu Tian was chasing him this time.
Of course, he was definitely being controlled by his master right now.
"Do it!" Xu Mu suddenly shouted.
Swish!
A dark shadow flew over from the distance, lunging straight at Wu Tian.
Li Poshan, who was controlling Wu Tian, quickly turned his head and threw a palm strike.
A massive flaming handprint roared past, smashing towards Fu Jinyu.
Clang!
With a loud bang, the flaming handprint was instantly sliced open, and Fu Jinyu's figure emerged from within.
Boom!
The Qi energies of both sides collided, and Wu Tian's body was sent flying backward, crashing into a large tree in the distance.
"It's you! Fu Jinyu?"
Wu Tian's voice immediately rang out. "Why are you attacking me? I spent so many spirit stones just now because I wanted to save you!"
"Bullshit!"
Fu Jinyu cursed angrily. "I told you earlier, the moment I show up, I'll kill you first!"
"Fuck!"
Wu Tian shouted furiously.
[Destiny Power -20]
Rumble!
Right at this moment, twenty to thirty vine monsters appeared in the distant sky.
Seeing this, Xu Mu quickly shouted, "Retreat for now!"
Fu Jinyu gave Wu Tian a cold glare before finally leaving together with Xu Mu.
...
In the forest outside the ruins.
Xu Mu and the others had all made it out.
Xianling Nan leaned against a nearby tree and stood up. She had been sitting the whole time before, so her figure hadn't been visible.
He realized that this woman was not to be underestimated. The assets on her chest were practically at the D-cup realm, roughly on par with Dai Xingluo.
At this moment, she was using her heterochromatic eyes to curiously size up Xu Mu.
Xu Mu, meanwhile, checked her Filial Piety score toward him. He wouldn't have known if he hadn't checked, but seeing it gave him quite a shock.
Her Filial Piety score was at Level -9.
This was the lowest Xu Mu had seen so far. Even Wang Hun, who actively wanted him dead, hadn't reached a level this low.
"Why did you save me?"
Xianling Nan asked with a smile.
