Huang Weiting was already at the ninth level of Qi Refining at this time.
It seems he is not far from Foundation Establishment.
Su Bai was not surprised by this.
After all, seeing him accompanied by two Foundation Establishment Cultivators, she knew his family did not lack resources.
Su Bai frowned slightly.
She was about to say something.
Lian Youzhi suddenly came from a nearby stall to stand in front of Su Bai.
Staring with wide eyes, she looked at Huang Weiting.
She parted her cherry lips.
"Scram."
Huang Weiting frowned as he looked at the young girl who had suddenly blocked his way.
Years ago, he had searched for Lu Hong.
Later, Su Bai told Lu Hong to stay on Ebony Island until she reached Foundation Establishment before returning.
After that, Huang Weiting gradually forgot about the matter.
After all, they were just minor characters.
It was good enough that they even caught his eye.
Today, when he came out, he happened to see a familiar back.
So he went up to take a look.
Upon seeing Su Bai, he recalled some past memories.
At this moment, Huang Weiting saw Lian Youzhi acting so arrogantly.
She was even more arrogant than him.
He immediately stiffened his neck.
"Who are you? Shopkeeper Su and I are acquaintances; we're just catching up."
"Shopkeeper Su, is this girl your friend? Heh heh, be careful, control your mouth, or it might cause you trouble."
The threat in Huang Weiting's words was undisguised.
This guy knew that Su Bai did not like to cause trouble.
Ten years ago, at the auction, she didn't dare to provoke him.
It was the same now.
He believed that if he said this.
Su Bai would definitely pull the black-dressed girl in front of him away.
Once Su Bai showed timidity, he could take an inch and ask for a mile!
Just as Huang Weiting was impatiently waiting to see Su Bai's embarrassed face as she tried to persuade Lian Youzhi.
He found that Su Bai had already helplessly covered her face with her hand.
At this moment, Su Bai was utterly speechless.
How could she possibly control this young mistress in front of her?
Lian Youzhi stared intently at Huang Weiting.
Her tone was somewhat puzzled.
"Who are you threatening?"
Huang Weiting didn't see what he wanted to see, and his expression was a bit awkward.
At this moment, the two Foundation Establishment Cultivators accompanying Huang Weiting already felt that the atmosphere around them seemed a bit off.
They quickly stepped forward, blocking Huang Weiting.
Especially Uncle Ming, who looked at Lian Youzhi with a serious expression.
"This Fellow Daoist, my Young Master is the twelfth great-grandson of Huang Tianba, an Elder of the Beast Controlling Sect's inner sect. He is very favored at home and merely likes to joke around."
Hearing Uncle Ming say this, Huang Weiting also frowned; he had never seen Uncle Ming so nervous before.
Lian Youzhi scratched her forehead and asked to the side:
"Who is Huang Tianba of the Beast Controlling Sect?"
Su Bai originally thought she was asking her.
She was about to speak.
Someone had already answered Lian Youzhi before her.
"Replying to Honored Master, Huang Tianba is an Elder of the Beast Controlling Sect, at the Early Stage Core Formation."
"!"
This voice startled everyone.
Then they noticed.
They didn't know when, but two more people had appeared beside Lian Youzhi.
Su Bai's pupils constricted as she looked at the two Cultivators who were exceptionally respectful to Lian Youzhi.
Two Core Formation True Persons!
And judging by their demeanor, they clearly regarded Lian Youzhi as their superior!
This was far more impressive than Huang Weiting's backing!
Listen to that address.
Honored Master!
It was much more powerful than any 'Young Master'.
After learning who Huang Tianba was, Lian Youzhi nodded understandingly.
Then she extended her finger.
Seeing her Honored Master's action.
The Core Formation Cultivator who had just answered Lian Youzhi's question immediately set up a Restriction around them.
His technique was quite skilled.
The moment the Restriction was set up.
Lian Youzhi's finger had already flicked out.
Boom!
Huang Weiting and his two bodyguard attendants instantly turned into three puddles of blood.
After dealing with the trash.
Lian Youzhi thought for a moment.
"Li Feng, Li Ruan."
"Yes."
"Your subordinates are here, Honored Master."
"How are things progressing?"
"Replying to Honored Master, this old man has spent twenty years to thoroughly understand the Formation layout of this market."
"Hmm, then let's make our move after the Six Sects' auction ends. Let them enjoy their last celebration."
"Yes!"
After speaking, the two Core Formation Cultivators disappeared.
At the same time, the bloodstains on the ground were wiped away.
As for Huang Weiting and the other two, it was as if they had never existed in the world.
From beginning to end, they did not spare Su Bai a glance.
Su Bai's eyelids were twitching at this moment.
Surnamed Li.
Isn't this the Li Country next door that was destroyed by the Six Major Sects?
They said before that there were still remnants.
What kind of remnants are these Core Formation Cultivators!
Can the Six Major Sects sleep peacefully by letting such dangerous existences roam free?
And they had already arrived at this market twenty years ago!
Isn't this watching the market being established!
Su Bai felt her heart rate quicken.
Had she just heard something she shouldn't have?
At this moment, Lian Youzhi took Su Bai's hand.
She placed the Storage Pouches of Huang Weiting and the two others into Su Bai's hand.
Then, as if nothing had happened, she continued to stroll down the street.
Until dusk approached.
Lian Youzhi looked at the street, which was already lit with lanterns.
In the Xingluo Market at night, there were also many places open for business.
"Su Bai, when you go back, don't spread word about what happened today, understood?"
Lian Youzhi looked down into Su Bai's eyes.
Su Bai quickly nodded.
She definitely wouldn't say anything.
Lian Youzhi was very satisfied with Su Bai's answer.
"That Young Master from the Beast Controlling Sect is dead, and his soul lamp must have extinguished. The old fogey from the Beast Controlling Sect must be anxious now, hehehe."
"Remember, don't go to Seven Stars Mountain later. Just stay honestly in your Danfu Pavilion."
After speaking, Lian Youzhi's figure disappeared.
It looked like she was off to do something big.
Upon hearing this, Su Bai understood.
This Lian Youzhi had probably returned to take revenge on the Six Major Sects.
At that time, the Six Major Sects attacked Li Country.
They exterminated the evil Cultivators.
Although she didn't know what relationship Lian Youzhi had with that Li Country.
But the Core Formation Cultivators of Li Country now revered Lian Youzhi as their master.
She must be a powerful backer.
Moreover, Lian Youzhi did not directly attack the Six Major Sects.
She specifically chose this remote Xingluo Market.
It should be because her strength is not enough to directly confront the Six Major Sects.
But she should be confident in facing six Early Stage Core Formation Elders.
"Things are developing unfavorably."
Su Bai wanted to take Lu Hong and the others and flee directly.
But then she remembered Lian Youzhi's warning before leaving.
If she really left the Xingluo Market, she would probably be discovered immediately.
"I'll just stay put for now."
She only hoped that when the Core Formation True Persons started fighting, it wouldn't affect her side.
Su Bai prayed inwardly.
Then she released a sound transmission talisman.
She wanted to call Xu Changge down from Xingluo Mountain.
Xu Changge had been in seclusion impacting Late-Stage Foundation Establishment for over half a year.
By her calculations, she should be coming out of seclusion soon.
According to Lian Youzhi, there would be danger near Seven Stars Mountain.
This should refer to the fact that the core of the Xingluo Market's grand Formation was located nearby.
Once the auction ended, that would be the first place to be hit.
Su Bai would not reveal anything about Lian Youzhi.
But Xu Changge was, after all, her sister, her beloved and close friend.
Naturally, she had to prevent her from suffering an undeserved calamity.
As for getting Xu Changge to come down the mountain.
She only needed to say she missed her, and Xu Changge would be quite happy to come down and accompany her.
