Facts have proved that Lu Anjun and others were right.
As soon as they sat down, the heads of various families in the hall started talking in low voices.
"What are you thinking, Lord Tang? It's just that you don't want to come to Luoshui City. Why would you want outsiders to come here?" an old man said dissatisfied.
"The Pianyun Sect is still a Tianpin sect. If someone who is not a relative comes to take advantage of the Luo family, isn't it afraid of making people laugh?" The old man next to him also said angrily.
In fact, when it comes to taking advantage, the sects and aristocratic families who came to participate in the Luo family auction also took advantage.
But if we talk about it in detail, the situation is still a little different. They have been friends with the Luo family for many years. In the years since the Luo family has declined, they have received many favors from them, both covertly and covertly.
Therefore, the Luo family holds this auction, strictly speaking, it is also a feedback to them. After all, after the Luo family leaves, some properties cannot be taken away, and some natural resources and treasures are not suitable to be taken to the secular world. Instead of giving an advantage to outsiders,
It's better to make these old friends for free.
Therefore, they feel comfortable taking advantage of this.
But what kind of relationship does the Pianyun Sect have with the Luo family? Why would they come here to take advantage of this?
"Maybe it's because of the Shendan Pavilion. You may have heard that the first master of the Shendan Pavilion was from the Pianyun Sect, so future generations consider themselves to be disciples of the Pianyun Sect.
The Pianyun Sect has been declining over the years, and it is getting worse day by day. I heard that it is able to sustain itself to this day, thanks to Shendan Pavilion's unwavering support.
The Lord of Tang City probably didn’t want to see the Shendan Pavilion be brought down by the Pianyun Sect, so he wanted to help them.” Someone speculated.
"Indeed, the Shendan Pavilion is the number one Dan Pavilion in Fenglan City no matter what. If they are brought down by the Pianyun Sect, City Lord Tang will not look good on his face." Someone agreed.
"Sigh, in the past, the Pianyun Sect was considered a heaven-level sect that could reach the spiritual realm. I didn't expect it to fall to such a state." Some people lamented.
From the corner of his eye, he glanced at Gu Qingxi and the others, his eyes filled with sympathy.
"That's all, let's just treat it as a good relationship. Anyway, the Pianyun Sect is not taking much advantage in its current situation. Maybe in the secular world in the future, we can still take care of it with the Luo family." After hearing what they said,
The faces of the two old men before finally looked a little better.
No wonder he was disliked by others, it turned out to be this reason. After hearing their discussion, Gu Qingxi suddenly realized.
However, there was no change in his expression, neither dissatisfied nor angry.
According to City Lord Tang, she came to the Luo family's auction originally just to pick up the bargains, and there was nothing to argue with.
Besides, she didn't want to take this advantage for nothing. Even if it was for the sake of City Lord Tang, she would not treat the Luo family badly.
Xiao Fangqing, Lu Anjun, and Du Jiuling looked embarrassed.
Obviously, everyone thinks that the Pianyun Sect will be unsustainable and sooner or later, like the Luo family, they will withdraw from the spiritual world and go to the secular world. Otherwise, how can they and the Luo family take care of each other?
What they call forming a good relationship is more appropriate to say giving alms.
But as embarrassing as it was, they couldn't refute it.
Although it has long been determined that as long as Gu Qingxi is around, the Pianyun Sect will be able to regain its former glory. But that is all in the future. The current Pianyun Sect is indeed a bit weak, so it is no wonder that others misunderstand it.
"Master, it's almost time, why don't we start now." Seeing that the sky was getting dark, an old man who looked like a butler said to the Luo family.
"Let's get started." The head of the Luo family nodded and responded.
Luo In fact, the sects and aristocratic families invited by the family were far more than those in the hall, but many people relied on their status and did not want to bear the notoriety of adding insult to injury, so they did not want to participate, and they did not refuse outright out of affection.
The head of the Luo family has not waited for those sects and aristocratic families to come over. He has roughly guessed their thoughts, so there is no need to wait any longer.
"Fellow Taoists, I believe you all know the origin of today's auction, so I won't say more.
The Luo family has been through many ups and downs over the years, but it has always stood firm. It is all thanks to the help of everyone, so you don't have to worry about it. Just ask for whatever you like." The head of the Luo family walked towards the temporary auction stage and said boldly.
Then he turned around and signaled to the junior of the Luo family next to him.
Soon, the first lot was sent to the auction stage.
This is a semi-divine sword named Qinghong Demon Slayer Sword.
Even in the Spirit Realm Heaven, long swords of this level are not too common. What is even more rare is that this half-god sword is still extremely well preserved.
As soon as the wooden box containing the Qinghong Demon-Slaying Sword was opened, a burst of exclamations came from the hall.
The Luo family leader didn't need any introduction, and everyone started bidding.
If you want to survive in Lingjingtian, the most important thing is strength. No matter how deep the friendship between sects and aristocratic families is, they will not give in when it comes to conflicts of interest.
What's more, the higher their bid, the more beneficial it will be to the Luo family. If they are humble to each other, wouldn't they join forces to harm the Luo family?
After a fierce competition, the Qinghong Demon-Slaying Sword was finally sold for 50 million high-grade spiritual stones.
The head of the family who took the photo of this semi-divine sword was overjoyed, and the head of the Luo family was also very satisfied with the result.
When the Luo family returns to the secular world, the treasures of heaven, earth, weapons, weapons and sharp weapons are important, but if the family wants long-term peace and stability, the most important thing is the spiritual stone.
After the head of the family put away the Qinghong Demon-Slaying Sword, everyone else finished their congratulations and the auction continued.
However, in comparison, the following items are much inferior. This is normal. The Luo family has not settled in the secular world. How many magical weapons like the Qinghong Demon-Slaying Sword are there?
Even if there are still some, they can't take them all out at once, otherwise everyone's interest will be exhausted as soon as they start. What will happen next?
Of course, the so-called difference is only compared to the Qinghong Demon Slayer Sword.
The several magical artifacts and heavenly materials and earthly treasures that the Luo family then took out were still extraordinary for most sects and aristocratic families, so the auction did not go cold.
"Seven million."
"Eight million."
"Ten million."
"..."
The hall was buzzing with people and the sound of bidding was endless.
While bidding one after another, everyone did not forget the group of people from the Pian Yun Sect. But what surprised them was that until now, no one from the Pian Yun Sect had spoken.
"Isn't the Pianyun Sect here to pick up cheap ones? Why has there been no movement?" During the auction, an old man lowered his voice and asked doubtfully.
"Is it possible that the quality of these auction items is too low to be appreciated?" someone speculated.
"What a joke, given the current situation of the Pian Yun Sect, do you think they are still qualified to be picky?" Another old man sneered, not hiding his contempt for the Pian Yun Sect.
"Could it be that he has no money?" the man from before guessed again.
