Beiming Sect and Qiankun Dao both belong to the ten major sects in Kyushu. The former dominates the West Sea and the latter dominates Qinglan. The two major sects are thousands of miles apart, and there is not much friendship or grudges.
But thirteen years ago, Huang Laoxie Huang Potian of Beiming Sect came all the way to Qinglan with his five-year-old granddaughter Huang Qianxin to challenge Luo Yi, the number one swordsman in the Qiankun Dao who was known as the Qinglan Sword God.
The two sides fought fiercely for three days and three nights on Qingtian Peak, the highest peak in Qinglan. No one knew the outcome, but the two sides became sworn friends, and Huang Laoxie stayed in Qiankun Dao for a whole year.
Mingxiu was Luo Yi's granddaughter, and she and Huang Qianxin became good friends. Although Huang Laoxie later brought Huang Qianxin back to Beiming Sect, the friendship between the two did not end.
This time when Mingxiu came to Beiming Sect, it was Huang Qianxin who asked Huang Laoxie to invite him.
Mingxiu went to the Imperial Capital of Yan before coming to Roulan City, and got acquainted with Yan Fangfei and others.
"Sister Fangfei and Brother Lingyun are very nice people!" Mingxiu said with a smile: "I met Brother Lingyun on the way to Yanjing. Thanks to him for helping us repel the bandits. Sister Fangfei helped me a lot, and I also
How does she know about you, Brother Qin Yun, so she can recognize the Bing Chi Pearl, which makes Sister Qianxin..."
She was a little embarrassed when she said this, paused and continued: "If Brother Lingyun, Sister Fangfei and Qianxin had helped, I wouldn't have been able to raise so much money, so please don't blame Sister Qianxin,
If I’m wrong, it’s also my fault.”
Being able to hear the news about Yan Lingyun and others made Qin Yun feel very relieved.
He doesn’t have many real friends, but the Prince of Dayan definitely counts as one!
Qin Yun also admired the girl in front of him more and more. A frail woman ran thousands of miles regardless of danger in order to save millions of victims. How could people not be moved by her chivalrous heart?
"Miss Mingxiu is really serious!" He said quickly: "If you are still wrong, then I am really guilty. I will not blame Mr. Huang, well, Miss Huang!"
"Ah! Are you two still finished?"
Huang Qianxin became impatient and threw away the golden moire cat in her arms. She walked straight to Mingxiu and sat down.
She reached out and hugged Mingxiu's waist, and said fiercely to Qin Yun: "Don't think that just because you want to take advantage of Mingxiu with a broken bead, sister Mingxiu will always be mine alone!"
Qin Yun, who was dumbfounded, stood up and said: "Miss Mingxiu, now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, I will take my leave first. If there is anything that requires Qin Yun's help, please feel free to tell me!"
Mingxiu nodded and said, "Thank you, Mr. Qin. I am going to auction the Ice Chi Pearl to raise funds for charity. If Mr. Qin is free, how about attending the auction on the fourth floor later?"
"Okay!" Qin Yun agreed immediately.
He knew best how attractive the Ice Chi Pearl was to a woman. Mingxiu actually had no intention of being moved by it and put it up for auction without hesitation, which made Qin Yun think more highly of her in his heart.
This inner appreciation has nothing to do with the relationship between men and women.
After Qin Yun left, Mingxiu took off her veil, and her stunning beauty was immediately revealed, and a charming smile with a pear dimple appeared on her face.
Huang Qianxin was jealous and said: "Sister, do you really have a crush on him?"
Mingxiu reached out and pinched her cheek, and said with a smile: "Master Qin is a good man. But you also know that there will never be anyone else in my heart. And I can see that he has no thoughts about me."
Huang Qianxin shook her head and said: "That's because you didn't take off your veil. If he sees your face, I never believe he won't be tempted. Men are all lustful and there is no good thing!"
"Yes, it's enough that I have sister Qianxin!" Mingxiu chuckled: "Let's go to the auction!"
Huang Qianxin happily leaned over and kissed Mingxiu hard on the face, but she didn't notice a trace of sadness flashing in her eyes.
…
The auction house on the fourth floor of Yunwu Pavilion is famous in Roulan City and even the entire West China Sea. Because of the support of Beiming Sect, its specifications and grades are second to none in Roulan City. The half-monthly auctions can always attract people.
A large number of wealthy businessmen and people from famous families came to compete for various auction items.
Divine weapons, panacea, sword manuals... As long as you have enough financial resources, you can definitely buy those coveted rare items, and high-level experts from the Northern Ming Sect can guarantee the safety of the transaction.
However, if you want to participate in the Yunwu Pavilion auction house, you will definitely not be able to do so without sufficient status. Qin Yun and Wei Feng still relied on the latter's stolen invitation letter to gain a place in the fourth-floor auction house.
Wei Feng didn't have much interest in the auction, but he was particularly concerned about the meeting between Qin Yun and Mingxiu, and kept asking questions.
"Junior brother, why didn't you seize such a good opportunity and get it out so quickly?"
"Junior brother, why don't you ask everyone to play a solo for you?"
"Junior brother, you..."
Qin Yun really couldn't help but interrupt him and said: "Brother Wei, Miss Mingxiu promised to wait until the end of the Xihai Wushu Association and take time to play three pieces of music for you before she returns to Qinglan!"
"Just for me?"
Wei Feng's eyes widened immediately and he couldn't believe his ears: "You mean..."
Qin Yun smiled and affirmed, "Yes, it's just for you!"
This was a request he made to Mingxiu before leaving, and the latter readily agreed.
Qin Yun didn't have much feeling for Mingxiu's music, but Wei Feng was completely different.
While listening to music in Qiongyu Pavilion in Lotus Pond, Qin Yun abruptly interrupted Mingxiu's performance in order to prevent Wei Feng from becoming possessed, which also cost him an opportunity.
So Qin Yun wanted to get another chance for Wei Feng. Maybe he could use the sound of the other party's piano to defeat his own demons and achieve a breakthrough in the way of swordsmanship.
Because I am devoted to love, I am devoted to the sword. The road to the Heart Sword has too many difficulties and ups and downs.
Wei Feng instantly understood Qin Yun's intentions and thoughts, and there was a touch of emotion in his eyes: "Junior brother, you are so kind! I have a younger sister who is also beautiful and fragrant, not as good as..."
"Brother Wei, please spare me!" Qin Yun almost spit out a mouthful of blood and said quickly: "You don't need to thank me for anything, I already have a fiancée!"
"I know..." A cunning look appeared on Wei Feng's face: "Fang Ruobing from Biyue Peak!"
Qin Yun was completely defeated by him, but fortunately the auction was finally about to begin.
Originally, according to normal arrangements, the auction on the fourth floor of Yunwu Pavilion should have started an hour ago, but because an extremely precious item was temporarily added, it was postponed deliberately.
This auction item is the Ice Chi Pearl donated by Qin Yun.
The greatest value of the ice bead lies in its magical function of maintaining youth forever. For most men, it is just a rare orb at best, but for most men, its temptation is irresistible.
Especially for a beautiful woman, the most terrifying thing is definitely the aging of her youth. They are willing to use all means to maintain their beautiful appearance. It is the dream of many people to get a beauty pill.
However, the time that the Beauty Pill can be maintained is limited, and the effect is definitely not as powerful as the Ice Chi Pearl. Therefore, when the Ice Chi Pearl was identified as authentic by the appraisers of the Beiming Sect, it immediately caused a sensation in Roulan City.
.
The rich and powerful businessmen who got the news rushed over one after another. In addition, it was just before the Xihai Martial Arts Tournament was held. There were many strong masters coming to Roulan City, and there were even more people who were willing to pay a high price for the Ice Chi Pearl.
If Mingxiu hadn't sold it as soon as possible in order to raise funds for charity, he would have been able to attract dignitaries from the capital of the Yuan Dynasty to compete with the Ice Chi Pearl.
Despite this, the auction house, which can accommodate hundreds of people, is still full. Many ladies and girls among them are obviously attracted by the ice bead. Even if it cannot be auctioned, it is good to have an eye-satisfying experience.
Under everyone's gaze, a middle-aged man in white robe stood on the auction stage.
He bowed his hands in front of everyone and said, "Thank you all for coming. I am the abbot of tonight's auction. Please support me a lot. Please take a look at the first lot first!"
Since the start of the auction was postponed, the auctioneer from Yunwu Pavilion didn't say much nonsense and directly let people take the first lot. It was a good-quality spiritual sword with a base price of 100 pieces of spiritual jade.
After seven or eight rounds of bidding, the spiritual sword was finally auctioned away for 230 pieces of spiritual jade.
Lots were presented one after another, and were quickly taken away, and occasionally some failed to be sold.
Qin Yun had participated in similar auctions before, so he didn't have much new experience. If he hadn't been curious about the price his ice bead could fetch, he wouldn't have bothered to stay here.
But when the auctioneer took out the twenty-seventh lot, Qin Yun suddenly became interested.
This auction item is a top-grade Talisman Knife called Tai Zhen Talisman Knife. It is said to have been used by Qi Refining Master Zhen Su a hundred years ago. The base price is three hundred spirit jade.
The Talisman Knife is an essential tool for refining Talisman Talismans above the Cloud Talisman. A good Talisman Knife can increase the success rate of carving Talisman Talismans, especially for carving complex and high-level Talisman Talismans. An ordinary Talisman Knife is absolutely unfit for use.
The talisman knife Qin Yun is currently using is pretty good, and it can be used to carve the simplest talismans. But if it goes one step further to high-level or even treasure talisman level, then it will definitely need to be changed.
So when he saw this Taizhen Talisman Knife, he was immediately moved.
Since the Talisman Knife is basically used by Qi Practitioners, and they must be proficient in Talismans, no one immediately bid after the auctioneer called out the lowest price.
Most of the people who grew up obviously had no interest in this valuable Talisman Knife.
Qin Yun waited for a moment, and when the auctioneer shouted for the second time, he raised his hand to signal the bid.
"Three hundred and ten pieces of spiritual jade!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian () to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
