The next day, Ren Yun, accompanied by Ouyang Zhong, arrived at the Zhu family's private venue.
"The Zhu family's private venue is decorated in an antique style. The contemporary owner of the family seems nostalgic!"
"Hey, young master, I think the Zhu family did this intentionally!" Ouyang Zhong chuckled and said, "Although the Zhu family has no substantial relationship with the Hongqing Group, they have always been protected by the Hongqing Group.
The Zhu family seems to be nostalgic, but in fact it is a reminder of the distinction between master and servant of the Hongqing Group... They, the Zhu family, are the masters."
There are three major ancient martial arts families in Qibei Province, two of which are located in Quancheng, the provincial capital.
One family is the Zhuge family, and the other family is the Zhu family.
Speaking of which, the origins of the Zhu family are more complicated.
Let’s talk about the Hongqing Group first. The Hongqing Group was founded by General Chen Yonghua. The slogan at that time was to fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty.
The Zhu family in Quancheng City are the descendants of the emperors of the Ming Dynasty.
After hundreds of years, the Hongqing Group will naturally no longer bow to the Zhu family.
And there are descendants of the Ming Dynasty emperors all over the country, and the Zhu family in Quancheng City is just one of them.
However, the sect leaders from all walks of life of the Hongqing Group still take good care of the Zhu family across the country, and it can even be said that they are protected by the Hongqing Group.
Across the country, the descendants of the Ming Dynasty emperors, under the protection of the Hongqing Group, seemed to be superior to others.
Hearing Ouyang Zhong's words, Ren Yun smiled faintly. He patted Ouyang Zhong on the shoulder and asked, "Ouyang Zhong, don't you think what the Zhu family did is wrong?"
"Back to the young master, in my opinion, the Zhu family is just trying to put money on their own faces. Hundreds of years ago, the Hong Qing Group was willing to submit to the Zhu family!
But who made the Zhu family's heirs fail to live up to their expectations and not develop as well as the Hongqing Group?"
"That makes sense!" Ren Yun nodded, and then he said close to Ouyang Zhong's ear: "But Ouyang Zhong, your thinking is a bit dangerous.
If my grandfather heard it... what would be the consequences?"
After saying this, Ren Yun walked into the Zhu family's private meeting with a smile on his face.
"What...what do you mean, young master? I...ah...it's over!"
At first, Ouyang Zhong didn't react.
When Ouyang Zhong reacted, he was sweating profusely and his whole body was soaked with sweat.
Too many words lead to mistakes!
Even Ouyang Zhong, who is always cautious, sometimes thinks poorly.
Ouyang Zhong is a member of the Ren family. His comment just now on the relationship between the Zhu family and the Hongqing Group seems to be saying that if the Ouyang family develops more than the Ren family in the future, wouldn't it mean that he will no longer take the Ren family seriously?
If Ren Yun makes a fuss out of Ouyang Zhong's words, the Ouyang family will surely perish.
In fact, Ren Yunshi felt that what Ouyang Zhong said was reasonable.
The Hongqing Group still protects the Zhu family in this way, which can be regarded as affectionate and righteous.
Ren Yun just wanted to scare Ouyang Zhong.
Ren Yun did not take his seat immediately, but walked towards the backstage of the auction.
"Sir, the backstage is an important area and no one is allowed to enter!"
"Sir, please wait in the venue."
"..."
At the backstage door, Ren Yun was stopped by two people from the Zhu family.
Ren Yun looked at these two people carefully and couldn't help being surprised.
These two people are just gatekeepers to the Zhu family, but their skills are not weak, and at worst they are innate masters.
Ren Yun didn't care at all. He took out a recently refined seventh-grade elixir from his body and said to the two people very politely: "You two, please give this elixir to one of your supervisors."
look!"
"Okay, sir, please wait a moment!"
In front of Ren Yun, the two people felt an indescribable sense of oppression. Ren Yun was polite, and they were even more respectful.
Taking the seventh-grade elixir from Ren Yun's hand, one of them walked into the backstage.
"Miss, there is someone outside asking to see you...and asking me to show you this seventh-grade elixir."
The Zhu family's auction was held by Zhu Lingque, the daughter of the Zhu family.
"Haha, seventh-grade elixir?" Zhu Lingque sneered disdainfully and said, "Return the elixir to that person... There is no need to meet backstage. He will naturally see me in the venue later!"
Although elixirs are extremely precious in the ancient martial arts world, the Zhu family is a first-class ancient martial arts family, and Zhu Lingque doesn't take it seriously just because of a seventh-grade elixir.
Moreover, the beauty of Zhu Lingque is as famous as the Qinling Mountains, and it is known as the Five Beauties in Quancheng City!
From time to time, some people spend a lot of money just to see Zhu Lingque.
Therefore, Zhu Lingque thought that it was the young master or the young master of that family who asked for a seventh-grade elixir in order to spend some time alone with Zhu Lingque.
"Yes!" The person who came to report responded, but when exiting the backstage, he still cautiously reminded: "Miss, this seventh-grade elixir has a fragrant fragrance and bright color... It should have been refined in the past few days.
Finished product.”
"Huh? Wait a minute..."
Zhu Lingque immediately became interested and said to the man: "Give me a look."
Zhu Lingque took the elixir from the man's hand, observed the color of the elixir, and put it to his nose to smell it.
"So fresh... This elixir has been refined for less than 72 hours!" Zhu Lingque put the elixir aside and said quickly: "Go and ask that gentleman to see me...
No, I’ll go and invite you myself!”
After speaking, Zhu Lingque stood up and hurried to greet Ren Yun personally.
For the Zhu family, a first-class ancient martial arts family, they have no shortage of elixirs, and there are even several Nascent Soul masters in their Zhu family!
However, looking around the world, there are less than ten alchemists!
The Zhu family also dreams of having an alchemist!
This elixir has been finished for less than 72 hours, so it is very likely that the holder of this seventh-grade elixir is an elixir alchemist.
"Is this seventh-grade elixir yours?"
However, after seeing Ren Yun, Zhu Lingque was obviously disappointed.
He was so young that Zhu Lingque even doubted whether Ren Yun was an adult.
Although Zhu Lingque has never seen an alchemist, in her opinion, alchemists are all elderly people who are over a hundred years old.
You must know that any alchemist is at least as powerful as a Nascent Soul master.
However, in the past five hundred years of China's history, there has been no Nascent Soul master under the age of fifty.
"Well, it's mine!"
Ren Yun replied.
Zhu Lingque looked at Ren Yun, smiled sweetly, and said: "Sir, please come with me backstage, how about we chat?"
"I also have something to say to Miss Zhu!"
The two of them walked into the backstage one after another, and Zhu Lingque ordered that no one was allowed to enter.
In Zhu Lingque's view, even if Ren Yun is not an alchemist, he still knows an alchemist, and he is even a disciple of that master.
"Sir, what do you want to do with me?"
Zhu Lingque turned her charming eyes and asked calmly.
Ren Yun asked: "Miss Zhu, I gave you this seventh-grade elixir... I just ask Miss Zhu to give me some information, what is the base price of the third-grade alchemy furnace?"
Hearing this, Zhu Lingque smiled thoughtfully.
As she expected, the boy in front of her was entrusted by an expert, and his purpose was to create a third-grade alchemy furnace...
