also superficial.Later, Qin Sang found his own path of cultivation and didn't delve into it further.Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!He suddenly realized that there wa...Lake Heart Island.

In a bamboo building.

The puppet maid stood silently outside the door.

In the room, two women sat on bamboo chairs.

One woman wore a silver half-mask, her hair piled high in an elaborate bun. Beneath the mask, her nose was straight and proud, and her lips were red, like glazed pottery, with a barely perceptible smile playing at their corners.

She wore a jade green 'Cuixian' long dress, her shoulders were delicately sculpted and her waist was as slender as a willow. She leaned slightly against the bamboo chair, radiating a languid air.

Her hands rested casually on the armrests, her wrists were as white as snow, and the string of ice crystal bracelets on her wrist seemed even more brilliant and translucent.

A pair of almond eyes held a hint of curiosity, gazing at the darkness outside the room. Then, she raised her finger and tapped her chin, showing a hint of eagerness. She seemed eager to break free and see what lay beyond, wondering what tricks the Grand Demon Gathering had up its sleeve.

Opposite her sat a woman dressed in white.

She was veiled, her legs crossed, sitting upright on a bamboo chair. She emanated a cold aura, her entire being resembling an ice sculpture.

She also wore a similar bracelet on her wrist. Besides that, she had no other superfluous adornments. Her features beneath the veil were exquisite, almost perfect, her lips slightly pursed, with only a faint hint of blood color.

Her eyes were closed, her body seemed to be shrouded in a faint chill that separated her from the world, making her appear otherworldly and solitary.

The two women were exactly Shi Xue and Liu Li, as mentioned by the elder of Xuan Tian Palace.

Shi Xue looked up and down at the darkness outside, then finally gave up on the idea of probing. She retracted her gaze and fell upon Liuli, who was sitting still as a statue. A slight smile curled at the corner of her mouth, and she habitually teased, "Junior Sister, you refused to wear that long skirt. Anyone who sees your outfit now will surely guess our relationship with Xuantian Palace. This robe is too old-fashioned; it's truly a pity for Junior Sister's beauty! Well, this way is better, so as not to let that old demon discover that there are such beauties in the world and snatch my Junior Sister away to be his wife. After that, I wouldn't get to see her anymore."

Bi Di Ge. Liuli slowly opened her eyes, her pupils deep, as if a pool of azure light was brewing within. Her gaze was ethereal, yet with a hint of loneliness.

It seemed that she was displeased with Shi Xue's words. A ripple appeared in Liuli's eyes, and her beautiful eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"Okay, okay..."

Shi Xue saw this and quickly soothed her, "How could I bear to let our beautiful young lady fall into the hands of those demons If Master knew in Heaven, he would definitely not spare me!"

"Master..."

Liuli was taken aback and murmured, repeating the two words.

Shi Xue realized she had spoken out of turn and quickly changed the subject, saying: "Junior Sister, if you can buy a suitable treasure at the Wanmo Convention, we'll go back to Ditong Island afterwards and try to get a few Ditong fruits. You can try to break through your bottleneck. If you're lucky, you might be able to cultivate Bingpo Divine Light to its peak in one go, which will satisfy the requirements of the Holy Land."

Seeing her junior sister barely nod her head, Shi Xue secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

She knew her junior sister had a cold disposition and cherished words like gold. She spoke to herself, "Junior Sister, have you noticed anything unusual these past few days I seem to have found people from the Law Enforcement Hall in the city, perhaps even elders."

Liuli seemed a little absentminded, she froze for a moment before realizing that her senior sister was asking her a question. Her eyes moved around a bit, and her voice was flat.

"Maybe."

Being able to get a reply from her junior sister, Shi Xuexin felt satisfied. She turned her wrist, the bracelet on it gleaming, and continued, "The Law Enforcement Hall's actions are definitely not something we could easily detect. It's probably because their target isn't us, so they didn't deliberately conceal themselves in front of us. Could something big be happening at the Demon King Convention For some reason, I feel uneasy. Alas, there are not only powerful demons on the island now, but also a demon saint. If we run into trouble, we should immediately seek help from the elders..."

As soon as the words left her mouth, the bracelet suddenly glowed softly.

Shi Xue's mouth opened slightly, she suddenly stood up, her consciousness swept over the bracelet, and met Liuli's gaze. Her face was full of surprise, and she silently said: "It's Elder Mei..."

Then, Shi Xue carefully set up a barrier around them. She lightly tapped a crystal on the bracelet, and the familiar voice of Elder Mei emanated from within.

"Shi Xue, are you and Liuli on Lake Heart Island"

Shi Xue replied in a low voice, "Yes! Elder Mei, what's the matter"

When Shi Xue and Elder Mei were whispering to each other, Liuli got up from her bamboo chair with both hands resting on her knees, shifting her gaze to the darkness outside the bamboo building.

Gradually, her brows furrowed deeper, her lips pressed into a thin line, and a hint of confusion appeared in her eyes.

Elder Mei quickly explained the ins and outs of the situation.

Shi Xue's face was full of shock, she asked several questions in a row before daring to believe the news was true, the Xuan Tian Gong sacred artifact had actually been stolen by a traitor!

“Remember to keep your whereabouts hidden, and don't be discovered by the old demon's minions. I and Elder Lan are waiting for you outside the island.”

Elder Mei interrupted the conversation.

The bracelet's glow extinguished.

Shi Xue's expression was extremely serious, and there was a hint of anxiety in her eyes. "Elder Mei told us to leave Hunmo Island now and cooperate with the retrieval of the sacred artifact. What should we do"

"Let's go!"

Luli withdrew her gaze, her expression returned to normal, and she turned to leave.

In another bamboo building.

Qin Sang was oblivious to the undercurrents swirling outside.

He appeared to be meditating with his eyes closed, but in reality, he was paying close attention to the mysterious ice box.

Up to now, the mysterious ice box remains unchanged. In this way, Qin Sang couldn't judge whether Xuan Tian Palace could sense the mysterious ice box. He could only pay attention to his surroundings when leaving.

Time flows slowly.

The mist over Lake Heart Island frequently parted, and one by one, the ancestors of Yuan Ying arrived on the island. They were led into a bamboo building by puppet maidservants.

Qin Sang stayed in the bamboo building, unable to see what was happening outside, so he had no way of knowing how many Yuan Ying cultivators had arrived.

“Bang!”

Suddenly, a bell rang.

Then the restrictions outside the door were triggered, and Qin Sang shouted for someone to come in. A puppet maid carried a jade plaque in. Qin Sang, who had already learned about the rules of the Wanmo Grand Assembly, took the jade plaque and examined it up and down.

Later, after the trading begins, participants will take turns stating the treasures they want to acquire and those they wish to sell.

The jade pendant lights up, which means it's Qin Sang's turn.

Of course, there are also many people who do not have a clear goal, so they can activate the restrictions on the jade pendant and skip themselves.

Moreover, the jade pendant is also a disguise. Everyone's voice is completely in unison.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

'When!'

'Bang!'

Soon, two bells rang consecutively.

Three bells ring, the trading session begins!

“Time is up, friends, most of you are here. The trading meet starts now!”

Suddenly, a deep and aged voice echoed from outside the bamboo house.

Most Venerable!

Qin Sang's mind flashed with this name. The past two sessions of the Wan Mo Grand Assembly were hosted by this person. It was said that his cultivation was extremely powerful, only one step away from a great cultivator.

"The procedure for the trading session, as you've all heard from the puppet maid, requires no further explanation from this old one. The rules remain as they always have been... I trust none of you will disappoint us!"

The old man's voice echoed softly, reminding and warning everyone on the island in the middle of the lake.
