Chapter 819: Chapter 390: Too Easy to Profit! Jingming Dongyang Seal_3

"Is there another one?" Zhang Fan’s heart stirred slightly, as if he had guessed something.

"That’s right, it’s also a Dharma Seal from Dragon Tiger Mountain, called Thunder City Demon-Catching Golden Seal!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Fan’s eyes narrowed slightly, feeling that fate held an intriguing mystery.

"What a coincidence indeed."

"What coincidence?" Fang Changle asked.

"Nothing... nothing..."

Zhang Fan shook his head and whispered softly. He gave the exhibit case with the Jingming Dongyang Seal one last longing glance before reluctantly withdrawing his gaze.

"It’s absurd, in this Jiangnan Province territory, there’s no way I can’t get something I’ve set my sights on."

Just then, a sharp shout suddenly broke out within the small exhibition hall.

There weren’t many people in the hall, but everyone turned their attention there.

Zhang Fan followed the sound and saw a familiar figure among a group in the corner.

Xiong Ba!

He had come with the Yin Mountain Xiong Family to participate in the exhibition. In fact, as a Cultivation Family in Yujing City, the Xiong Family had also brought several treasures to exhibit.

Previously, Xiong Ba followed Zhang Fan and, with the intervention of Yin Mountain Ghost King Xiong Sanqi, had become the chosen heir of the Xiong Family. Of course, he was present at all kinds of events.

At this moment, standing in front of the Xiong Family group was a young man, with a bold expression and a delicate young woman at his side, heavily made-up and very eye-catching.

"Mao Baiguang!" Fang Changle saw the young man and his gaze sank, immediately revealing an unpleasant expression.

"Mao Baiguang!?"

Hearing this name, Zhang Fan felt an immense sense of familiarity. After thinking carefully, he remembered that this was the Maoshan disciple who had earned a special recruitment slot at the Daoist Alliance Headquarters with a "high score of 90!"

Now that trouble had arisen, he seemed completely unaffected, still holding one on each side, attending such occasions.

"Young Master Mao, this Mysterious Bone Flute is a treasured heirloom of our Xiong Family, truly hard to part with, or we’d feel ashamed before our ancestors."

Just then, an elder of the Xiong Family stepped forward. His hair and beard were graying, and in terms of age, he could be Mao Baiguang’s grandfather, yet now could only nod, bow, and apologize.

The Mysterious Bone Flute is a Yellow Feather Treasure that has been consecrated in the Xiong Family for nearly three hundred years. If not for the Jiangnan Province’s involvement, they wouldn’t have sent such a treasure to exhibit.

After all, with the Xiong Family’s resources, nurturing a Yellow Feather Treasure is already difficult, and there’s a high chance it could be promoted to a Cyan Feather Treasure.

But they are still a local Cultivation Family in Yujing City, so they must give face to the Jiangnan Province Daoist Alliance.

"Old Man Xiong, have you forgotten my surname? It’s your Xiong Family’s good fortune if I take interest in your treasure." Mao Baiguang held the girl’s slender waist and didn’t even glance at the Xiong Family elder.

"More and more out of line." Fang Changle snorted coldly.

"Is the power of those with the surname Mao that great?" Zhang Fan asked casually.

Fang Changle remained silent, only nodding.

The Mao Family is the direct lineage of Maoshan and wields considerable influence. As a result, in a big forest, you see all sorts of birds.

"I foresee big trouble for this guy." Zhang Fan said indifferently.

"What do you mean?"

"If heaven intends to bring disaster, it will first bestow fortune to create arrogance within them." Zhang Fan said coldly.

Disciples from noble families, relying on the blessings of their ancestors, naturally start from a higher point and gain more than ordinary people. It’s undeniable, and it’s their fortune.

However, if they don’t cultivate virtue, heaven will bring disaster, and tribulation is not far off.

"This is a treasured heirloom; we’re not selling."

Just then, Xiong Ba stepped forward. After not seeing him for a long time, he was no longer meek and submissive, but dignified and composed.

"Kid, do you know who you’re talking to?" Mao Baiguang’s eyes narrowed slightly, sneering.

"I’m in a good mood today, so I’ll give you another chance. If you won’t sell, that’s fine."

"From now on, it will be very difficult for your Xiong Family to raise your flag in Yujing’s territory."

Compared to Maoshan being a kingdom, the Mao Family is like royal relatives. In contrast, the Xiong Family is just a newly released landowner.

"Xiong Ba..." The Xiong Family elder’s face changed drastically, hurriedly pulling back the impulsive young man.

The young man didn’t realize that a small whim of power could shake the foundation of an entire family.

The fundamental you depend on for survival may mean nothing to others.

"Young Master Mao, we..." The Xiong Family elder gritted his teeth, having no choice but to bow his head.

"Are you deaf? He said they’re not selling."

Just then, a calm voice suddenly rang out in the exhibition hall. Everyone turned to look and saw a young man approaching directly.

Xiong Ba saw the newcomer, initially startled, then showing delight.

"Brother Fan!"
