"Young friend
"Of course." As he spoke, Chu Feng produced the inherited secret technique.
Along with that inherited secret technique, Chu Feng also took out quite a few other items to put up for auction.
Nearly all of these items had been obtained from the Tomb of the Arrow Dao Supreme. Some were peculiar-looking things that appeared to be worth a fair amount, but they were of no use to Chu Feng whatsoever. He had simply decided to part with a portion of them at auction — there was no point in keeping them, and who knew, perhaps they could fetch a decent price?
After that, the Ghost Sect Palace Master chatted with Chu Feng for a while longer before Chu Feng took his leave.
After all, the important business was done, and he couldn't keep Elder
However, once Chu Feng had departed, the Old Man of Ghost Sorrow asked with a furrowed brow: "Palace Master, Young Friend Chu Feng's Immortal
"But even at auction, the final price would generally be around five hundred thousand at most — perhaps even less. So why did you purchase them at six hundred thousand Immortal Martial Stones?"
"To win someone's heart, you have to pay a price."
"Never mind losing a mere three million Immortal Martial Stones — if it means winning the allegiance of this Chu Feng, I'd be willing to pay thirty million Immortal Martial Stones," the Ghost Sect Palace Master said.
"Palace Master, do you truly believe that this Chu Feng is
He understood all too well that their Palace Master's high opinion of Chu Feng was not without reason, and the greatest reason of all was that their Palace Master believed Chu Feng to be the son of Chu Xuanyuan.
"The name is the same, the Divine Punishment Mystic Art is the same, and even the resemblance in appearance is uncanny — there is no mistake. It must be him," the Ghost Sect Palace Master said.
"But the rumors say that Chu Xuanyuan's son is already dead. Moreover, Chu Feng has never once acknowledged that he is a member of the
When Chu Feng first rose to prominence, countless people throughout the Great Thousand Upper Realm had speculated that he was Chu Xuanyuan's son. But gradually, many had dismissed that theory.
And their dismissal was not without reason — after all, the long-standing rumor was that Chu Xuanyuan's son had already perished.
"The world still does not understand Chu Xuanyuan well enough," the Ghost Sect Palace Master said, shaking his head with a smile. "How could his son possibly die?"
"Palace Master, if Chu Feng truly is Chu Xuanyuan's son, then why doesn't Chu Xuanyuan show himself? And why, back then, did he willingly submit to the punishment and imprisonment handed down by the Chu Heavenly Clan? What exactly is going on?" the Old Man of Ghost Sorrow asked, utterly bewildered.
In the eyes of many, Chu Xuanyuan's strength had surely surpassed that of the Chu Heavenly Clan. Yet when faced with their punishment, Chu Xuanyuan had chosen to submit.
This baffled many people and had given rise to numerous rumors.
The most prevalent rumor was that Chu Xuanyuan had grown weaker and could no longer contend with the Chu Heavenly Clan, which was why he had submitted and accepted the punishment. But there were also those who believed Chu Xuanyuan had ulterior motives — the Ghost Sect Palace Master held this view, as did the Old Man of Ghost Sorrow.
"Alas, for a man like that, I'm afraid even the heavens themselves have no idea what truly runs through his mind," the Ghost Sect Palace Master sighed.
