Luo Guan looked solemn as he hurriedly left the sword tower and left the Diwu Back Mountain.
He didn't notice at all that not far away, a group of people were looking at his back with dull expressions and twitching eyes.
"Standing at the fifth level of the Sword Tower for twenty-one days..." Wang Wei groaned. Each hair was engraved with a mask of pain, "It's simply outrageous!"
Everyone was speechless.
But the fact is now, they must admit that there is a monster in the Imperial Martial Arts that is superior to everyone!
"Do you think it's possible that he was so seriously injured that he left for treatment in a hurry?" Someone asked tentatively.
Mu Bei shook his head, "Luo Guan has plenty of energy and blood and is not injured." He took a deep breath and gritted his teeth, "On the fifth floor of the sword tower for twenty-one days, I admit that his swordsmanship is unparalleled and unmatched by any emperor. But,
Luo Guan's actions today are so arrogant!"
Raising his hand and pointing in the direction of leaving, Luo Guan's voice suddenly rose to an octave, "You have all seen that he left straight after leaving the sword tower... gone, he left! He will not stay in the back mountain, and this place will enrich the world.
Spiritual power cultivation, what does this mean?"
Ye Feng answered angrily, "It shows that Luo Guan doesn't take you and me seriously at all, and even disdains to practice together with you and me."
"Arrogant!" Su Nan roared, going crazy with anger, "You and I are the best among men, so we can stand out in the imperial martial arts, be listed on the list of heavenly kings, and be allowed to enter the back mountain sword tower to practice. How can we be humiliated like this?"
Mu Bei closed his eyes and opened them again, feeling calm and said, "My classmates, Mu cannot bear this humiliation! If you are like me, then we should take action."
"We cooperate sincerely and exchange our cultivation experiences without reservation. Luo Guan is arrogant and does not seize the opportunity to practice because of his unparalleled qualifications. This is our opportunity! As long as we work hard enough and fight hard enough, the future is still unknown? I, Mu Bei, swear that I will definitely
Teach this arrogant person a lesson!"
The blood was boiling for a while, and everyone was inspired. They all geared up and vowed to compete with Luo Guan. They shouted something like "So what if you go straight to the fifth level of the sword tower", "Three cobblers can stand up to Zhuge Liang", "There is strength in numbers".
Wait for slogans.
At this moment, the Emperor Wu Houshan is sharing the same hatred with the enemy!
…
Luo Guan returned to the small courtyard, took two spiritual stones from the spiritual power spring at the bottom of the well, held one in each hand, and silently practiced the Great Wilderness Twelve Emperors Sword Technique. After an hour, his fatigue was completely restored, and the blood and energy in his body even increased a little.
, he was so frightened that he stopped quickly.
Staying in the Imperial Mountain to practice? Forget it, there is no time to waste! Luo Guan took out his ID card of the Alchemist Association’s guest official, and when he was hesitating whether to find them or not, there was a sudden knock on the door.
It’s Cheng Xian!
Luo Guan's eyes lit up, "Have you found any news about the Great Goblin Yuan?"
Cheng Xian nodded, with a look of arrogance on her face, "Of course, you don't care about our status. I have already told you that from a high-ranking Cheng family, getting married is the pinnacle of life..."
Luo Guan interrupted her, gritted his teeth and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Say it quickly!"
< br> "...You brat, you don't know what's good or bad!" Cheng Xian snorted angrily, but she could also see that Luo Guan was anxious, "Do you know the Jin family in the imperial capital? They are the ones behind the Jinding Chamber of Commerce, and their business is spread all over the counties of Qingyang Kingdom.
In the county, they have the Great Goblin Yuan."
"Tonight there will be an auction at the Jinding Chamber of Commerce headquarters in the imperial capital. The Great Goblin Yuan is one of the highlights, but I heard that Tianshu Pavilion is also interested in it. I have contacted the Jin family and they refuse to trade privately. You should be mentally prepared to compete.
In terms of financial resources, Tianshu Pavilion has never lost."
Luo Guan raised his eyebrows and stretched out his hand, "Ticket."
Cheng Xian sneered, "Don't you know? This kind of high-profile auction is a directed invitation. I can get in tonight by just swiping my face."
"Oh, then come pick me up on time."
Bang——
The courtyard door was closed tightly, and Cheng Xian, who was about to step forward, was almost slapped in the face, and was so angry that she jumped and cursed!
"Well, you Luo Guan, people have said that tearing down bridges in rivers and killing donkeys in unloading mills, but you haven't crossed the bridge yet, the mill hasn't been milled yet... Well, in short, you have gone too far!"
"Jealous, you are jealous!"
The coachman grimaced and reminded in a low voice, "Miss, there are many people watching. Please pay attention to your image."
Cheng Xian's face froze, and she gritted her teeth and got into the car, "Let's go! In the evening... pick him up yourself. I can't stand this anger!"
At night, the moon is like a hook.
Luo Guan got on the carriage, looked at the stinking Cheng Xian opposite, and smiled, "Didn't you say you wouldn't pick me up in the evening?"
Cheng Xian stared, "A grown man actually eavesdropped..."
"Sister, with that voice of yours, it's hard for me not to listen!" Luo Guan curled his lips and changed into a comfortable position, "Mr. Cheng from the Emperor's Back Mountain, who are you?"
Cheng Xian said, "It's my grandfather."
"As expected." Luo Guan tapped the carriage and spoke in a casual tone, "Before entering the sword tower, Mr. Cheng gave me a reminder. Although I don't know the reason, it is very important."
"Mr. Cheng, can you tell me, what exactly does your Cheng family want from me? I'm a little panicked by this attitude."
Cheng Xian's expression was solemn, her eyes showed hesitation, and she gritted her teeth in silence again and again, but just as she was about to speak, she was interrupted by Luo Guan.
"Forget it, I'm even more panicked when you look like this. Let's talk about it later. However, I have my word first. I can do whatever I can to help the Cheng family. It's okay, but if I have to fight to the death, I'm sorry that we haven't shown enough affection yet... Well, if you
If you can help me get the hobgoblin element tonight, we can still discuss the matter."
Cheng Xian gave him a stern look, gritted her teeth and said, "Don't worry about it. Since I'm following you, I will try my best to help you!"
Soon, the Jinding Chamber of Commerce headquarters arrived
, the building is majestic and resplendent. It is a bit vulgar, but it can make people feel the richness and wealth at a glance.
Cheng Xian was really good at brushing his face, and he led Luo Guan all the way without any hindrance, and entered a luxurious VIP room on the second floor of the auction house. The specially refined crystal surface was visible in one direction, and he could easily overlook it while sitting on a large and comfortable seat.
The entire auction house.
"Ms. Cheng, the auction manual and procedures have been prepared for you, so I won't disturb you." The Jinding staff spoke with great respect, and they did not forget to salute Luo Guan when they left.
I opened the manual and found the record about the hobgoblin element on page 38. All I can do now is wait.
After a while, a black-robed auctioneer Su Rong came on stage, bowed to everyone, and announced the start of the auction.
"The first item to be auctioned is the Dangyun Sword, a fifth-grade high-level divine weapon. It can be held by a martial artist in the Soaring Sky Realm. It can fight against Ling Yun..."
boom--
The atmosphere in the auction room was instantly heated!
Luo Guan sighed inwardly, it was indeed an imperial capital, and the first auction item was so amazing.
Back in Jiangning City, he asked Jin Ya to help stall for time, and the gimmick he used was nothing more than a fourth-grade magic weapon.
In the end, Dangyunjian fetched a sky-high price that ordinary people could not imagine.
The auction continued, and precious treasures were sold one after another, among which Luo Guan was very moved.
"... Next, we will conduct the thirty-eighth auction - the Great Goblin Yuan, an earth treasure with a very low probability of being born. It can not only be used to refine weapons and elixirs, but also for martial arts experts who practice earth skills.
It’s something you can encounter but cannot ask for!”
"The starting price is fifty thousand taels of gold, let's start bidding!"
It is worthy of being one of the finales. As soon as the Great Goblin Yuan appeared, the atmosphere in the auction house became more and more heated.
"Fifty thousand taels!"
"Sixty thousand taels!"
"I'll pay 80,000 yuan!" This was a strong man with a burly body and extremely developed limbs, his voice was sullen and his face was full of fire.
The only thing missing is the four characters "Earth Element Martial Arts" carved on his forehead!
Unfortunately, the bid was exceeded in an instant.
Soon, the price quoted for the hobgoblin yuan exceeded 200,000 taels of gold. There were only a few buyers left to participate in the competition, and the price increase became cautious.
Cheng Xian glanced at Luo Guan and saw that the guy still had a calm face. She couldn't help but feel a little admiration. She started to bid, "Two hundred and fifty thousand taels."
The sound was slightly changed and came out with the blessing of the VIP room formation.
After hesitating again and again, a voice came out, "Two hundred and fifty-three thousand taels."
Cheng Xian followed without hesitation, "Two hundred and eighty thousand taels." His tone was plain, but he naturally showed the aura of determination to win, which was intimidating.
The vague looks in his eyes showed unwillingness and helplessness, but he was already thinking of quitting. .
Cheng Xian smiled, but at this moment, another voice sounded.
"Three hundred thousand taels."
Swish——
In the auction house, many eyes lit up, and they could smell the competition between the big guys. It was right, after all, it was a rare treasure like the Great Goblin Yuan, and if necessary, it was easy to spend millions.
Cheng Xian's expression was solemn, she sat upright and said, "Four hundred thousand taels!"
She didn't want to get entangled and wanted a quick resolution.
But the other party's tone was unchanged from before, and even felt a little boring, "...four hundred and one thousand taels."
Cheng Xian frowned and rang the bell on the table. There was a knock on the door, and the Jinding staff who had left before opened the door and came in. "Miss Cheng, what are your orders?"
"Who is bidding against me now?"
The Jinding staff looked embarrassed and said cautiously, "Ms. Cheng, Jinding always protects the privacy of our guests. It's very difficult for me to do this..."
Cheng Xian sneered, her eyes cold, "Since you know who I am, you should know the position of the Cheng family and negotiate with the other party. It's not that the Cheng family has no money and I don't want unnecessary conflicts. Otherwise, in the end, you will be in trouble.
It’s still your Jinding!”
Full of threats.
The Jinding staff immediately sat on the wax, sweating on their foreheads, "Then... please keep it secret, Miss Cheng!" He said with a bitter face, "The person bidding against you is Master Li Shitong of Tianshu Pavilion."
Cheng Xian's face changed slightly, she waved him away, turned around and said, "Luo Guan, I will keep my promise, but you must also be mentally prepared."
Tianshu Pavilion, backed by the Alchemist Association, has had head-to-head confrontations with royal nobles, and has achieved great victory. As a third-generation leader of the Cheng family, Cheng Xian certainly knows what terrifying foundation and power this represents.
Li Shitong, the third-level peak alchemist and a new powerful figure in Tianshu Pavilion, is rumored to be preparing to attack the fourth level.
Tonight, he actually participated in the bidding for the Great Goblin Essence in person, which shows that Tianshu Pavilion attaches great importance to this matter. If it is not handled properly, it is very likely to cause conflicts between the Cheng family and the Alchemist Association!
Cheng Xian was so worried that she didn't notice the strange look on Luo Guan's face at this moment. When she took a deep breath and gritted her teeth to bid again, she was stopped by Luo Guan.
"Forget it, let him."
"...Are you serious?" Cheng Xian felt relieved and confused.
Luo Guan nodded and stood up, "I drank too much tea. I'm going out."
As soon as he finished speaking, Cheng Xian grabbed him and said with a nervous look on his face, "Luo Guan, please don't mess around!"
"...Sister, what are you thinking!" Luo Guan was speechless and gritted his teeth, "In your eyes, am I so brainless?"
Cheng Xian let go and smiled, "I'm not worried about your impulsiveness... uh, go and come back quickly!"
