Inside the altar, just around the silver hair, there is a circle of pale white divine light that cannot be seen by outsiders.
This circle of divine light formed a spherical door. The silver hair was in this spherical aperture, and the sound was also emitted by this silver hair.
"It seems that the treasure will also appear in that aperture later, because to take our treasure in, there must be an entrance in that aperture, otherwise the treasure cannot be sent in..."
Ye Chu frowned slightly and thought to himself: "If this is the case, I can even take it out when the treasure appears, and take it out without anyone noticing..."
"It's just that we can't do it now. We'll see what happens later..."
The auction has just begun. The rules now are the same as a hundred years ago. If you want to participate in the auction, you must first send all your treasures to the altar and wait for them to automatically match the treasures for you.
After the screening, the matching items will be displayed. If you agree with them, you can make a deal. If you don't agree, the treasures you sent in will be sent back.
"Starting to put away treasures..."
Seeing that the auction had begun, Lin Niao'er curiously asked Ye Chu: "Father, can I also participate?"
"If you want to play, you can put some treasures in it." Ye Chu nodded, "But don't put too good things in it..."
"Oh, let me just bring some in."
When Lin Niao'er came back to the Nanshang Auction for the first time, she was naturally very curious. She selected a few treasures and put them into the altar.
Ye Chu's eyes were open, and sure enough he saw a small door appearing in the circle of light in the middle of the altar. Lin Niao'er's treasure was sucked in, and then the door closed immediately.
Inside the house, several other people also took out some treasures and threw them in with great interest.
Ye Chu happened to take this opportunity to carefully observe the aperture in the middle. The light door opened and closed very quickly, and the treasures flew in one by one.
After a treasure flies in, in about one breath, if no consecutive treasures are put in, the light door will close.
"In other words, if I want to seize the things inside when he starts matching, I only have one breath to take the things away..."
Ye Chu thought to himself, but what he was not sure about now was that this aperture might be replicable, otherwise how could it appear in more than a thousand altars in private rooms at the same time.
Obviously, there will be such a halo in every altar. Maybe when it first appeared, it was just a shadow, and it would not appear in each altar at the same time, nor could it appear as a real object at the same time.
"No, there should be only one physical object now..."
Ye Chu thought that the way matching is done now, first determine which private room the person belongs to, and then put the items on the altar of that private room.
What appears in the altars in other private rooms should be just phantoms, which is equivalent to making a transaction with the person in this private room first. If he doesn't agree, the transaction will not be done. If he agrees, the thing will appear directly there.
Most people began to put various treasures inside. Ye Chu's eyes could only see the situation in the altar in his private room. The treasures were quickly sucked away by the light door.
It will take a few more hours for these treasures to be identified, and then the auction will continue. It will not end so soon.
Xixi made several pots of tea for everyone and said to Ye Chu: "Senior brother, why don't you take a rest first? It will probably be late at night before you start matching treasures. It's still early..."
The auctions now are different from before. Each auction lasts for nearly a day and a night. Because there are so many treasures, it lasts a long time.
Just waiting for them to complete the matching behind their backs, they had to wait until almost dawn, and then match them one by one.
With tens of thousands of auction items, even if the host ends one auction quickly, it will take a long time.
Ye Chu nodded, sipped some tea, and then squinted his eyes to take a rest.
They had just come out of seclusion, and now they still lacked rest. Several other people began to wait here. Lin Niao'er was originally in high spirits, but after waiting here for nearly an hour, she became a little tired.
She can only wait in seclusion here.
…
Nanfeng Holy City, the ancestral land of the Ouyang family.
At this time, in the Ouyang family's meeting hall, in front of several white-haired old men, there was a branded shadow floating in the air.
It was exactly the scene where Ye Chu and a group of people from the City Lord's Mansion appeared outside Nanshang Manor before that they were branded and brought here by people in the family.
"What do you think?" Ouyang Zhen, the head of the Ouyang family, asked the people around him.
One of the sharp-faced old men said: "I don't think this man named Ye has much ability. He is just bluffing. Without these women to protect him, he is nothing..."
"Oh? Lao Liu, do you think he has no real ability?" Ouyang Zhen asked him with a smile.
Ouyang Dang, the sixth eldest son of the Ouyang family, said disapprovingly: "Otherwise, I don't see anything special about this kid..."
"Haha, Lao Liu should go outside and have a fight with him to find out." Ouyang Lao San and Ouyang Yu smiled at the side.
Ouyang Dang smiled and said: "Then there is nothing to be afraid of. If this boy dares to challenge, I will teach him how to be the city lord..."
Ouyang Yu smiled and said: "Sixth, you should not be judged by appearance. We have all been cultivating immortals for so many years. You still don't understand this truth. Looking down on someone may make you pay a heavy price..."
"What a painful price..."
Ouyang Dang is such a person: "I don't believe it, I only believe in my own fists..."
"Facing a truly strong man, you may not even have a chance to punch..." Ouyang Yu snorted, "There is no conclusion yet as to how the people from those great fairy cities died before..."
"Third brother, are you saying that my strength is no longer good?" Ouyang Dang raised his eyebrows and was very unhappy.
Ouyang Yu smiled and said, "I didn't say..."
"Okay, you two are the only ones who like to talk nonsense..."
Ouyang Zhen was helpless. He waved his hand and asked the fourth child over there: "Fourth child, please tell me your opinion..."
Ouyang Laosi and Ouyang Hai stared at the floating shadow in the middle with solemn expressions and said in a deep voice: "Didn't you notice? Hongliu and Mrs. Po'er seem to be in awe of this Yecheng Lord...
"
"You should be able to tell something about where they are standing..." Ouyang Hai observed more carefully, and the others immediately looked carefully at their positions.
Ouyang Dang is a rough guy: "I don't see anything, is there any point in this?"
Ouyang Yu said with a smile: "You should pay close attention to the fourth child. These two women are standing a little further away from Ye City Lord. It seems to be intentional, but it is actually subconscious..."
"What is subconscious? Is it subconscious?" Ouyang Dang really didn't understand what this meant.
Ouyang Hai said in a deep voice: "This is their subconscious action, just like we used to follow our old father. Because our father is much stronger than us, we are accustomed to walking behind him subconsciously."
"The pace of these two women and the surname Ye is subconscious."
Ouyang Hai said in a deep voice: "Although this Ye City Lord looks young, his strength is unfathomable. He may be far stronger than these two female demon fairies."
The head of the family, Ouyang Zhen, raised his eyebrows and said, "Speaking of the Fourth Brother, do you think the masters from those great immortal cities are very likely?"
"good……"
Ouyang Hai nodded and said: "This boy is not very old, but he gives me a very powerful killing aura, which is very terrifying. I think it was him who killed several masters of the immortal city. He may have nothing to do with the old city lord."
"It's unlikely..."
Ouyang Dang felt that it was a bit exaggerated: "If this boy is really that strong, it would be too exaggerated. He is not very old..."
"There are some strong people that we can hardly imagine."
Ouyang Haidao: "Perhaps because of this, he was able to become the city lord, otherwise, he would not have become the lord..."
"It's just that I can't figure it out, why isn't that plumper Hong Qi's wife? Could it be that as soon as Hong Qi died, that woman turned to this boy's arms?" Ouyang Dang snorted.
Ouyang Zhen waved his hand and said: "Don't talk about whether there is something like this or not. This kid has tricked us a few days ago. Let's see who has time to go and see what tricks this kid is up to..."
"I'm not going..."
When Ouyang Dang heard this, he immediately shook his head and said: "What's there to do? Our Ouyang family has so many auctions and we are so busy every year. Why go to his auction..."
Ouyang Yu sighed: "This is the first thing a new official does when he takes office. He says he is sending invitations to us, but in fact he is testing us..."
"What a test, are we still afraid of a young boy like him?"
Ouyang Dang snorted: "Even if he killed those people in the fairy city, are our Ouyang family still afraid of him?"
"Lao Liu, you'd better go home and take a rest first..."
Ouyang Zhen looked confused. He rarely discussed these things with this guy. Every time he was arrogant, he was arrogant and had a ridiculous discussion.
"What should I do when I go home? It's boring to go home..."
Ouyang Dang didn't want to leave yet, Ouyang Yu on the side smiled and said: "Lao Liu, I'm telling you to shut up, you don't understand..."
"Just shut up"...
Ouyang Dang rolled his eyes at him, turned to Ouyang Zhen and said, "Brother, I am telling the truth. Do we still need to be tricked by him? Do we have to go and congratulate him as the city leader after he takes office?"
"Why don't you use it..."
Ouyang Yu said: "He is the lord of the Holy City, and the entire Nanfeng Holy City area is under his jurisdiction. No matter how you say it, our Ouyang family is just a big family..."
"You still have to do enough work in name..."
Ouyang Yu said with a smile: "We can't provoke others and offend them. What's the benefit in that?"
"That's what I said, but it would be a disservice to our face..." Ouyang Dang looked dissatisfied.
When Ouyang Zhen saw this Lao Liu here, he couldn't discuss it at all. He simply said to Lao Wu Ouyang Hai over there: "Lao Wu, you are the most thoughtful. Let's do this. After the Nanshang auction is over, you will bring
Please go to the City Lord's Mansion and meet this guy from Ye Chu for a while."
"Okay, brother, I'll go."
Ouyang Hai was also involved in this matter. His vision was always good, and he was always very accurate in what he saw.
"Okay, if there's nothing else, let's just leave..."
Ouyang Zhen said: "I have to go back to my home and see the Nanshang auction..."
"Let's all watch together and join in the fun..." Ouyang Dang said.
"Let's go back to our respective homes..."
Ouyang Yu smiled and said: "You don't have any pictures at home..."
"What's the point of watching it alone..." Ouyang Dang was very depressed. He came here just to look at it with a few brothers and discuss it together.
Ouyang Zhen said: "Let's watch it with your little wives. Didn't you just marry a few little wives a few years ago..."
"Well, it was a few years ago. I didn't care about them after giving birth..."
Ouyang Dang looked depressed: "Don't go. You are all brothers. Let's watch together. I feel dizzy..."
Before he finished speaking, only he and the third child Ouyang Yu were left among the brothers. When Ouyang Dang saw that Ouyang Yu was still here, his face darkened: "Second brother, why don't you leave?"
"Haha, didn't you say that no one would watch it with you? Third brother, I will watch it with you..." Ouyang Yu smiled.
Ouyang Dang shrank his neck and hummed: "What kind of medicine are you selling in this gourd? Are you trying to take advantage of those in my family again?"
"Haha, Lao Liu, I am your third brother after all. As the saying goes, good luck should not flow to outsiders..."
Ouyang Yu put his arm around Ouyang Dang's shoulders and said with a smile: "Those in your family are not your descendants, and you don't accept them yourself. If you let them follow me, what's wrong...
…”
"Come on, how many times have you come to see me because of this matter in the past few years..."
Ouyang Dang rolled his eyes at him and hummed: "You are already this old and you are still staring at a few young girls. Is this appropriate?"
"Lao Liu, if you say that to Third Brother, Third Brother will not be happy. Didn't you have a few wives in the past few years..."
Ouyang Yu snorted: "Why can't I do it? Besides, it's rare for me, your third brother, to be interested in girls. You have to give it to your third brother no matter what. Your third brother and I have relatively few people. You can't bear to look at me."
The ultimate queen?"
"The number of people is still small?"
Ouyang Dang snorted: "That's all, come with me yourself. If they are willing to follow you, I will naturally not stop them. If they are not willing, you can't show off your third brother's prestige."
"That's natural. Am I, your third brother, the kind of person who is not open-minded?" Ouyang Yu was overjoyed.
Hearing what Lao Liu said, he was quite confident. After all, he was already a junior demon fairy. He didn't believe that he couldn't accept three junior female demon gods.
"Well, I really can't stand you, an old guy, a disrespectful guy..."
Ouyang Dang had no choice but to take this third brother to his family's home. He happened to invite this third brother to watch the Nanshang auction together.
Immortal cultivators of their age have grown up in the Holy City of Nanfeng since they were young. They have lived for six to seven thousand years and have watched Nanshang Auction too many times.
Even though the Nanshang Auction is far better than before, their enthusiasm has long since faded. Only Ouyang Dang, the sixth child, may still be interested in it.
…
At this time, in the Nanfeng Holy City, the Xia family's main hall.
Like the Ouyang family, the Xia family was also holding a high-level meeting, and Ye Chu's image also appeared on it.
But the difference from the Ouyang family is that the Xia family only has three people discussing matters, a white-haired old man, and two women. They are both two graceful middle-aged noble women, one is a woman in red robe, and
A woman in purple robe.
The white-haired old man said in a deep voice: "What do you two think? Is this new city lord Ye Chu worthy of his name..."
The woman in white robe spoke first: "I think this boy is not simple. Hongliu and Po'er are both the proud daughters of heaven and have been famous for a long time. Their strength is unfathomable. If this boy is
If you don't have any strength, how can you let them sacrifice their lives for him?"
The woman in red robe also said: "Female cultivators are all realistic. If this man didn't have the strength, it would be impossible for him to follow him."
"In your opinion, this guy named Ye Chu is very powerful..."
The white-haired old man said in a deep voice: "I don't know if there is something related to this kid..."
"What happened?"
The old man said: "It is said that a thousand years ago, there was a new prison lord in the Immortal Prison. He was personally appointed by the Lord of the Immortal Prison. That boy was named Ye Chu at the time. I don't know if he is this guy..."
"The prisoner of Immortal Prison?"
The woman in red robe thought for a moment and then said: "If this is the case, it is reasonable. The prison lord of the Immortal Prison becomes the lord of a holy city on the Immortal Road. This can be regarded as a promotion..."
"That's not..."
The woman in white robe said: "On the Immortal Prison, there is only a small prison lord, who only manages a few immortal prisons. But in this holy city, he is the lord of a city. In this city, he is the one with the highest jurisdiction and power.
It cannot be said in the same way.”
The woman in red robe said in a deep voice: "Father, are you worried about the relationship between this boy and the Lord of Immortal Prison?"
"yes……"
The white-haired old man sighed: "If it is really Ye Chu, it means that he has a deep relationship with the Lord of Immortal Prison. If he is sent here to be the Lord of the Holy City, we must be on good terms with him...
"
The woman in white robe said: "That's not necessarily true. Our Xia family has the rules of the Xia family and also has our power. What's the point of being on good terms with him? Don't we have to compromise with him?"
"After all, he is the Lord of the Holy City. No matter what we say, he is just a big family in the Nanfeng Holy City. If anything happens, what else will happen..." the woman in red robe sighed.
The woman in white robe hummed: "We and the Lord of the Holy City have always been on the same page, so there is no need to deliberately try to please them..."
"This matter still needs to be carefully observed..."
The white-haired old man said: "Previously, the personnel of several major fairy cities went on a killing spree with the people of the city lord's mansion in the outer battlefield. Originally, the city lord's mansion might have been wiped out, but in the end Hongliu and Mrs. Fuler returned safely...
"
"This matter itself is very strange, and after the Immortal City personnel were killed, several major Immortal Cities did not immediately send people to retaliate."
The white-haired old man said: "We have to guard against this new city lord..."
"Father, in that case, I will go to their auction when the time comes..." the woman in red robe said.
"Is it necessary, sister?"
The woman in white robe didn't pay too much attention: "You are the eldest aunt of our Xia family. If you go to their little auction, you are giving too much face..."
"It doesn't matter, I'll go take a look and get to know this Ye Chu." said the woman in red robe.
"All right……"
…
After nearly five hours of waiting, it was already dawn and the next stage of the auction had finally arrived.
The match is over, and many people may have just woken up. Immortal cultivators in major restaurants and small shops have woken up one after another.
"Thank you for your patience. The matching is over. This time we have matched a total of 12,500 lots..."
The shadow in the middle of the altar lit up again, and Lin Niao'er quickly woke up Ye Chu and the others, ready to start enjoying this huge auction.
Ye Chu also slowly opened his eyes. The auction was indeed about to start soon. He only heard the shadow in the middle say: "Here is the first matching lot 6."
"Still the old rules, starting from the private room in front of the number, private room No. 2, five purple sea flowers..."
As soon as the shadow person in the middle finished speaking, the treasures they had just placed in the altar in Ye Chu's private room flew out one by one and flew back to their hands.
"Uh, what's going on?"
Lin Niao'er looked disappointed and said somewhat depressedly: "Brother, are we not selected?"
"Yeah, maybe the treasures we gave away are too ordinary..." Ye Feng smiled awkwardly.
Lin Niao'er was extremely depressed: "Have you made a mistake? These things I have are all good, why didn't they choose any of them? Do these people have very poor eyesight..."
I thought the match would start from their private room No. 1, but it ended up starting directly from No. 2. None of their treasures were noticed.
