The Northern Realm Chapter 25 The Xuanyin Auction House
The next morning, Lu Yuan had just stepped out of the room and saw Bai Xize walking in the courtyard with an unconcealable smile on his face.
Seeing Lu Yuan coming out, Bai Xize immediately walked over and said with some excitement: "Holy Son, do you know that Bai Wuyi is missing! The head of the family sent people to almost turn the entire Bai family upside down.
Can’t even find it!”
Lu Yuan hummed, he had expected this.
He failed to intercept and kill Lu Yuan. If he still dares to stay in the Bai family, he is really looking for death!
"There will be a clan competition in two days. If he doesn't come back, then the position of the young family head will definitely be mine!"
Bai Xize was so happy that he could already imagine others calling him "Young Master Bai".
Lu Yuan glanced at him and said, "Is this why you came here today?"
Bai Xize suppressed a little smile, "I'm not afraid that the Holy Son will be bored here. I heard that there is a secret object in Chaowu City that will be put up for auction tomorrow night. The owner of the family asked me to go with Sister Qiu'er. How about the Holy Son?
Let’s go take a look together?”
Lu Yuan pondered for a moment, he had heard of Chaowu City. It was not a big city, but there were many disciples from aristocratic families or sects who spent a lot of money here because there was a Xuanyin Auction House located in this city.
The Xuanyin Auction House is backed by Empress Xuanzhong and is very powerful. The auction items are never asked where they come from or where they are going. As long as the price is right, they will all be put up for auction.
I heard that a few years ago, a jade seal from an ancient country located in Dongshan suddenly appeared at the Xuanyin Auction House and was sold at a high price.
The ancient country was shaken up and down, and overnight, thousands of strong men went out and went straight to the Xuanyin Auction House, vowing to seek an explanation.
But early the next morning, someone saw corpses piled up like a hill at the border of the ancient country. They were the powerful men who went to Xuanyin Auction House to ask for an explanation.
Since then, people in the mainland have abided by their duties at Xuanyin Auction House and did not dare to go too far, and those with considerable backgrounds did not dare to act casually.
"Secret thing?"
Lu Yuan smiled and said, "The auction items of Xuanyin Auction House are always announced in advance. Why are they so mysterious today?"
Bai Xize blinked and lowered his voice and said, "I heard from the elders that a demonic thing will appear in the Xuanyin Auction House tonight!"
Lu Yuan narrowed his eyes, the devil's things...
Although people in Yuanhong Continent hate the Demon Seed very much, the magic weapons and secret treasures it left behind are still powerful weapons today. Therefore, when talking about the Demon Seed Secret Treasure, no one looks so cynical.
Rushing like a duck.
However, after all, this thing has something to do with the devil, and it is difficult to explain it clearly, so the auction house is so different from the past and will not publish this list of auction items.
"It's interesting."
The corner of Lu Yuan's mouth raised. He wanted to see what this demonic thing was.
...
The next day, at midnight, the lights in Chaowu City were still bright, and the entrance of Chaoxuanyin Auction House was full of people coming and going.
If you look carefully, the people coming and going tonight are either the elders of this sect or the protectors of that family. The forces behind these people are all ranked high in the north, and everyone knows where this behavior comes from.
.
Everyone looked at each other, smiled, and said hello. As soon as they said a few words of greeting, a middle-aged man in brocade clothes walked out of the Xuanyin Auction House.
The man in brocade is none other than Wu Tai, the person in charge of the Xuanyin Auction House.
Although this person has only taken over the Xuanyin Auction House in Chaowu City for a few months, he has managed the place in an orderly manner and is quite appreciated by the empress. He also has the cultivation level of the God Realm. In the entire Chaowu City, it can be said that
It covers the sky with one hand.
No matter who sees Mr. Wu, he must call Mr. Wu in a friendly voice.
Everyone rushed up to greet the manager of Xuanyin Auction House. This Wu Tai liked to live in seclusion, so it was very difficult to meet him. If they were just familiar with him in front of him today, they would not be familiar with him.
The forces behind you can only be good or bad!
"Guan Wu is doing a good job. I am Zuo Qiushu, the great elder of Yunyan Sect."
"I am the protector of the Guiyi sect, Prime Minister Fenghua, and I have seen Wu Guanshi!"
"Down here..."
When Wu Tai saw the flattering people approaching him one after another, he felt a sense of disgust in his heart, his face darkened slightly, and the air pressure around him suddenly dropped, "Get out!"
As soon as Wu Tai spoke out, it was like rolling thunder falling from the sky, and the power of the whole world seemed to be suppressed. Everyone's heart froze and they closed their mouths one after another.
Then, Wu Taiyi waved, and all the guards in the Xuanyin Auction House were dispatched to seal the entire auction house, and the people at the door were also held back dozens of meters by the guards.
Although everyone was dissatisfied, they did not dare to break out. This was the Xuanyin Auction House. If they caused trouble here, they would be against the Empress of Xuanzang!
However, it seems that some big shot is coming to today's battle, and everyone is starting to speculate.
The elder of a sect suddenly paused and lowered his voice and said, "I just heard someone from the Xuanyin Auction House say that a noble person will be here today!"
Everyone's eyes were focused on it, "Your Excellency?!"
What kind of noble person could actually allow this powerful person under the Empress Xuanzhong to come out to greet him in person?
The elder of the sect stroked his beard, and in the eyes of everyone who was looking forward to it, he finally said the nobleman's name, "The person who comes is none other than the Holy Son of the Lu Family of Xuhai in the North!"
Everyone took a deep breath, and the shock in their eyes could not go away for a long time.
Are they lucky enough to meet the promising young saint son of the Lu family today?
Among the pedestrians on the side, there was a man wrapped in a black robe. When he heard the name, he froze, and there was a murderous intent in his eyes.
"Lu Yuan! When I finish all the business, I will take your life!"
This person is none other than Bai Wuyi.
Bai Wuyi suppressed the murderous intent in his eyes and shouted behind him, "Gui Yan."
Behind him, a burly man wrapped in a black robe took a step forward, his voice hoarse, like an evil ghost in hell roaring, "Master, please give me your orders!"
If anyone looked closer, they would probably be startled by the appearance of this man. They saw that the man in black robe had eyes like a snake and python, and the skin on his face was also covered with scales, which was very strange and terrifying.
"Have all the treasures of the ghost clan been exchanged for black coins?"
Gui Yan said in a deep voice: "Master, don't worry, everything has been exchanged."
Then he presented a token with both hands. The token was engraved with very delicate patterns, and a line of words flashed in the middle, "Remaining amount of black coins: 39.5 million."
Bai Wuyi accepted the token. This mysterious coin is the common currency of the auction house, and the bidding price is also based on mysterious coins.
There were a lot of good things in today's auction. These more than 30 million mysterious coins were obtained by mortgaging all his savings and the treasures owned by the ghost clan, but he could barely get the ones he wanted most.
Take all the items.
Bai Wuyi glanced at the people who were still discussing Lu Yuan. There was a bit of awe on those people's faces, and they were all praising him.
The unparalleled holy son, the peerless young master, the future overlord, all the words of praise they could think of came from their mouths.
Bai Wuyi sneered in his heart. When he made a contract with Bai Ze and returned to the position of supreme venerable, even the Lu family would have to beg for mercy in front of him!
"let's go!"
Bai Wuyi took Gui Yan into the auction house.
Not long after, a flash of rainbow light rose from the sky, and a group of people descended from the sky. The leader came through the air, dressed in white clothes and covered with snow. The surroundings were shrouded in holy light, as if the son of God had descended.
Mrs. Wu immediately came forward to greet him. A smile of flattery appeared on her normally stern face. She bowed and said, "Mrs. Wu of Xuanyin Auction House, I sincerely welcome the Holy Son!"
All the guards present also knelt down and shouted loudly: "Welcome the Holy Son!"
The rest of the people follow
They knelt down and shouted "Hello, Holy Son" one after another, each one louder than the other, as if they were afraid that Lu Yuan wouldn't hear.
Lu Yuan flew down from the sky, stood on the ground, glanced across his eyes, and smiled faintly, "You don't need to be polite, Commander Wu. Today, the Holy Son of Japan is here, and he doesn't understand many rules, so Commander Wu needs to give you a few pointers."
Wu Tai lowered his body and said, "The Holy Son is joking. With the dignity of the Holy Son, there are no rules to abide by."
Afterwards, Mrs. Wu straightened up and focused his gaze on Bai Xize and Bai Qiuer who were behind Lu Yuan. He had a lot of contact with the Bai family, so naturally he had met the two of them. He said politely: "I have met the two of them."
Both of them raised their hands in greeting. Wu Tai was indeed nothing in front of Lu Yuan, but to them, he was an uncle, so they naturally had to be more respectful.
"Tonight's auction will start in half an hour, please take your seats first."
Lu Yuan hummed, then led the Bai family and his entourage in.
This Xuanyin Auction House looks like a nine-story pagoda. The lower three floors and the middle three floors are only used for the auction of ordinary items on weekdays. The items being auctioned tonight are very special, so they are arranged to be auctioned on the upper three floors.
Mrs. Wu personally led Lu Yuan and others to a private room on the highest floor. This room had a golden roof, jade walls, carved beams and painted pillars, warm stone paving, and light fragrance filling the air, showing nobility.
Lu Yuan, Bai Xize, and Bai Qiu'er stepped inside, while the rest of the Bai family stood guard outside the door.
Wu Tai said respectfully: "This room is a bit shabby, but it is already the best room in Xuanyin. I ask the Holy Son to take care of it."
Lu Yuan glanced at it casually, "It doesn't matter."
Wu Tai saluted and summoned a graceful and pretty woman, "Holy Son, if you don't want to expose your identity, you can ask this person to bid on your behalf during the bidding."
"If nothing happens, I will leave first."
Lu Yuan nodded, and then sat down at the main seat. Not far in front of him was a huge transparent magic circle. This transparent magic circle could ensure that the people inside could completely see the outside, but the outside could not see inside.
, strictly ensuring that the identity of the auctioneer will not be leaked.
Through the magic circle, you can see a huge display stand. The auction has not yet started, and there is nothing on it.
Under the display stand, there are many seats, and now they are almost full of people.
Bai Xize and Bai Qiuer also sat at the table. Although Bai Xize had been to Xuanyin Auction House several times, as a member of the Bai family, he could only sit in the box below the seats. When was he here?
I had sat on the top floor before, so I looked around curiously.
Bai Qiu'er was sipping her tea, looking calm, but her thoughts were on Lu Yuan.
When she woke up, she was told that it was Lu Yuan who saved her.
Every time I recall that night, I can remember a vague but majestic figure appearing in front of my eyes.
Since then, for some unknown reason, her originally calm heart would stir up a stir when she saw Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan didn't know what Bai Qiuer was thinking in his heart. He closed his eyes and rested, thinking about what the demonic thing that was waiting to appear would look like.
Suddenly, Cao Hong's voice sounded in Lu Yuan's ears, "Your Highness, I just detected a trace of Bai Wuyi's aura."
Although Bai Wuyi came to the auction house this time and made full preparations, letting people cover up his aura, but for Cao Hong, who was in the delusion state, he could still detect a trace of his inadvertent aura. Even if the aura was very weak, Cao Hong
It can also be concluded that the one who comes must be Bai Wuyi.
Lu Yuan's eyes slowly opened, and Cao Hong's figure quietly appeared behind Lu Yuan, and then pointed to a seat below.
Lu Yuan glanced around and saw that there were only a few people wrapped in black robes to hide themselves. Looking down from above, these few people looked very abrupt.
Bai Wuyi is here too?
Chao Wucheng is not far from the Bai family this time, and he dared to take the risk to come here. It seems that there is something very important here.
Lu Yuan had some expectations. What was it that brought the Son of Destiny here?
