Martial Emperor Reborn(Completed)

C131 Auction



C131 Auction

0It had to be said that this place under the Cloud Mist Palace's jurisdiction was extremely safe, with almost no looting occurring.    

    

Apart from the fact that there were experts guarding the Cloud Mist Hall at every moment, there was also a special warning restriction. If anyone needed it, they only needed to pay a certain fee to obtain it.    

    

Once you trigger this restriction, experts from the Cloud Mist Temple will immediately arrive at your location to protect you. Even before they arrive, they will still investigate your death.    

    

On this point, the Misty Cloud Hall could be said to have carried it out very thoroughly, because this way, almost no one would dare to cause trouble in the Cloud Mist Hall.    

    

This kind of warning restriction was naturally extremely expensive, and as for Lin Long, he had made one for himself. After all, there were too many strong experts here, and there were also a lot of vicious people.    

    

Moreover, this kind of price was but a drop in the bucket for him.    

    

The Cloud Mist Hall's marketplace was extremely safe, but once one left the marketplace, it was not certain if one would be able to see the warriors fighting to the death outside the marketplace with their own eyes.    

    

As for those less than a hundred zhang away from them, they were still leisurely drinking tea in the marketplace.    

    

Of course, if you can afford it, you can hire people from the Cloud Mist Hall to protect you. Furthermore, you don't have to worry at all about the people from the Cloud Mist Hall killing and looting you.    

    

With such leisure, the day of the auction gradually approached.    

    

A few days before the auction started, Lin Long could see more people swarming into the marketplace. Many people couldn't seem to stay in the inns inside, so in the empty area of the marketplace, he could see people carrying large bags of their own.    

    

However, no one would easily provoke them, because who could guarantee that they were ordinary people?    

    

As for the He Family warriors, after the disciple from the Cloud Mist Hall came to visit them, no one else came to visit them. In order to save expenses, He Qingxue also cancelled the treatment of having each of the warriors in one room.    

    

Of course, other than Lin Long.    

    

On this day, when He Qingxue met him outside the room, he smiled and said, "Young Noble, the day of the auction is soon. I wonder if young master has made his preparations yet?"    

    

Due to He Tian Tian's help these two days, their relationship had gradually recovered. Although they didn't share their experiences and experiences together every day like before, they had obviously improved greatly.    

    

To be honest, Lin Long did not simply interact with He Qingxue, but he had truly learned a lot of useful things from her.    

    

"Miss He, do you want to buy anything?" Lin Long asked.    

    

"Hmm, let me take a look." Hmm, let me take a look. He Qingxue asked hesitantly.    

    

"I hope you can get what you want." Lin Long laughed.    

    

Very quickly, the day of the auction arrived. On this day, Lin Long, along with Elder Dong, walked into the auction.    

    

Before entering the auction house, they first entered a large but extremely dark room. After changing into a mask, they entered the hall.    

    

These masks were all the same: they were all white.    

    

The Cloud Mist Hall's design could be said to be well-liked by everyone. This made those who bought the treasure feel at ease, because no one would be able to identify them.    

    

Of course, you can also wear your own mask before entering the auction.    

    

This was what He Qingxue did, she immediately put on her veil the moment she walked out of her room, and this was not because she wanted to buy something at the auction.    

    

But to hide her beauty, she could not do anything about it, because if she did, who knew how many people would try to harm her?    

    

He Qingxue did not like to be in the limelight, so she could only do this.    

    

Because they had to pay gold to enter the auction, He Qingxue did not allow her subordinates to enter. It was also because of this that no one in the marketplace would be able to enter the auction.    

    

The auction house was very large and was well decorated. Although it wasn't as luxurious as those palaces, it was already done well, demonstrating the powers of the Cloud Mist Hall.    

    

Aside from the main auction hall below, there were two floors. These two floors were reserved for those who had enough money or power.    

    

After entering the venue, the three of them found that there were already a lot of people inside.    

    

Just as they were about to go their separate directions, a few masked men walked in front of them.    

    

"Cousin, are you coming to the auction as well?"    

    

Hearing the voice, he turned out to be Wu Peng. The warrior who was following him previously reported that he had joined a faction, but he did not expect that he would also come to the auction.    

    

Wu Peng's tone was evidently not calm, as it was clear that he was still brooding over what had happened previously.    

    

After saying that, he coldly glanced in Lin Long's direction. Because Lin Long was with He Qingxue, Wu Peng recognized him from his clothes that had not changed much.    

    

"Yes, I don't know, cousin …"    

    

Before He Qingxue could finish speaking, Wu Peng had already pointed to a person beside him and said, "Cousin sister, let me introduce you. This is Cheng An Nation's Luo Yue Sect's Young Sect Master, Rong Ping."    

    

Hearing his words, He Qingxue and Elder Dong's faces both revealed a look of surprise, they never thought that Wu Peng would actually be able to climb up such a powerful ladder.    

    

Although the Luoyue Sect was not a very powerful sect, they were not weak and could be ranked in the nearby countries.    

    

At this time, the person beside Wu Peng took off the mask on his face, revealing an extremely handsome face. He lightly smiled and said, "Hello, Miss He.    

    

"Hello." He Qingxue nodded slightly.    

    

Although she didn't like dealing with strangers, she still didn't dare to offend them.    

    

"I heard Wu Peng say that you, Miss He, are an outstanding beauty. I wonder if this Young Master would be fortunate enough to take a look." Rong Ping laughed again.    

    

"Not now, I'm afraid." He Qingxue frowned, although the other party's words did not sound unyielding, she did not like the fact that the other party had requested for something like this without considering her request.    

    

"Miss He, don't worry. I've booked a private room up there. If you come with me, you won't be seen by anyone." Rong Ping said.    

    

"Cousin, Young Master Rong is not only young and talented, but he is also a warm-hearted person. After I told him that you like the Symbol Literature, he immediately said that he would like to auction off a treasure related to runes in this auction and give it to you." At this time, Wu Peng spoke up for Rong Ping.    

    

It seemed that Wu Peng himself had directly "sold" his cousin to someone else.    

    

"Mn, Miss He, this time's auction indeed has a treasure related to Symbol Literature. Upon hearing that there is such a treasure, many of the surrounding Charm Magician s immediately rushed to the auction, but don't worry Miss He, I, Rong Ping, will definitely help you obtain it." Rong Ping took over Wu Peng's words.    

    

"Young Master Rong, you can't accept this without a contribution, moreover, this little girl has a friend. So, I'm sorry." He Qingxue said coldly.    

0

    

For a stranger to give away such a precious thing at once, and to ask for such a thing, she could not possibly like it.    

    

"Friend? Cousin sister, what's so good about this Lin Long? " At this time, Wu Peng was immediately angered, "He is not even worthy of carrying Young Master Rong's shoes. Think about it, if we can get back at the Luoyue Sect, would we still be afraid of those people in the clan?"    

    

He Qingxue's expression changed, but she had no intention of arguing with her cousin, and after clenching her teeth she said, "Cousin brother, I am still the one in charge of the team."    

    

Just as Wu Peng was about to retort, Rong Ping waved his hand and pointed at Lin Long, "Wu Peng, is this the person who tried to take advantage of your cousin?"    

    

Hearing the other party's words, Lin Long suddenly laughed, and then gently grabbed onto He Qingxue's hand and said, "What plan is this, I have already taken advantage of you, alright?"    

    

Based on the current situation, He Qingxue should be shaking off Lin Long's hand and scolding him loudly, but at this moment, her heart was suddenly in a mess.    

    

Such a panic made her forget what she should do.    

    

And it was also because of this that she was immediately rooted to the ground, allowing Lin Long to grab her hand.    

    

He Qingxue had completely forgotten about her current situation, but in the eyes of Wu Peng and Rong Ping, it was different. They completely thought that what Lin Long had said about taking advantage of them was true.    

    

In just a few days of effort, Lin Long had already taken advantage of his own cousin!    

    

Wu Peng's face immediately became extremely ugly. As for Rong Ping, his eyes were about to spew fire, he could initially talk to He Qingxue amiably, but how could he not be angry when a dignified Young Sect Master was slapped in the face by a young man?    

    

However, he knew that this was not the place to get angry, and so he quickly calmed the anger in his heart. After his gaze returned to Lin Long, he coldly said.    

    

After throwing down those words, he walked towards the stairs that led upstairs.    

    

"Lin Long, you're quite capable. However, once you offend Young Sect Master Rong, your life will be over." Passing by Lin Long, Wu Peng's angry expression carried a trace of schadenfreude.    

    

At this time, He Qingxue finally regained her senses. However, being taken advantage of by Lin Long wasn't that important anymore, what was important was that Lin Long had offended the Young Sect Master of the Luo Yue Sect because of her.    

    

This was going to be a huge problem.    

    

Lin Long had told He Qingxue before that she was the young master of a small family in Chuxi Town.    

    

"Lin Long, what do we do?" He Qingxue asked anxiously.    

    

"Don't worry, they won't dare to do anything in this marketplace." Lin Long said.    

    

"But what about outside the city square?"    

    

"You don't have to worry about that. You can hire people from the Cloud Mist Hall to protect me." Lin Long laughed.    

    

"Do you have that much money?" He Qingxue frowned, as she saw it, Lin Long's words were just to comfort her.    

    

"Of course, I have a gold card here." As he said that, Lin Long took out a Golden Card from the Cloud Mist Hall.    

    

The golden card was extremely exquisite. Clouds and mist were swirling around it, as if they were really going to float out from it.    

    

Seeing this gold card, Elder Dong and He Qingxue were both surprised.    

    

Having been in the Cloud Mist Hall for so many days, they naturally knew that this gold card represented a very prestigious status in the Cloud Mist Hall. With this gold card, not only would they be able to freely enter the marketplace, but they would also receive the respect of the disciples of the Cloud Mist Palace.    

    

In this auction, there were only a few chartered rooms. Anyone who could reserve a room was either a rich or a powerful person.    

    

Just like Rong Ping just now, when he walked towards the stairs leading to the private room, he was obviously somewhat arrogant.    

    

It could be said that Lin Long's identity was completely different from others.    

    

Seeing the two of them being so shocked, Lin Long laughed: "Did the two of you forget that I'm an alchemist?"    

    

In the Chaotic Continent, alchemists could be said to be the type of people that were extremely rich. Even the Charm Magician couldn't compare to them.    

    

Only, even so, He Qingxue and Elder Dong were still in disbelief, because Lin Long was too young. How much money could he earn from such a young alchemist?    

    

They were more willing to believe that the reason why Lin Long obtained such a gold card was because he knew of the strong warriors in the Cloud Mist Hall.    

    

Under the surprise of the two, Lin Long brought them to the staircase that led up.    

    

After handing over the golden card and confirming that the golden card had already been reserved in a private room, the two martial artists guarding the corridor quickly stepped aside and respectfully said, "Welcome to the Cloud Mist Hall Auction House."    

    

Under the lead of a warrior, the three of them walked towards the staircase network.    

    

The reason why Lin Long booked a room was not because he did not have enough money to spend, but because he did not want to be seen by the crowd. Someone like him, who could watch the entire auction while participating in it, like the bakery, would be the best.    

    

As for this gold card, he obtained it by taking out a bunch of pills and throwing out a deceptive alchemist identity card.    

    

Very quickly, the three of them arrived at the second floor's entrance. Just as they were about to continue walking up, they were stunned, because they realised that the people outside the room at the side of the stairs were Rong Ping, Wu Peng and a few others.    

    

Seeing Lin Long and the others, these people were clearly dumbstruck for a moment, and then, what made them even more inconceivable was that Lin Long and the other two were actually going up to the third floor.    

    

Because of his vision, the rooms on the third floor were many times better than those on the second floor.    

    

As for Rong Ping's private room, since it was located at the end of the stairs, it could be said to be the cheapest and worst location.    

    

The person that he had humiliated just now had actually booked a room that was countless times better than his own. After comparing the two, Rong Ping felt like his face had instantly swelled up.    

    

At this time, he couldn't help but shout at one of the waiters inside, "Hurry up!"    

    

If the waiter had not been too slow and had not accidentally poured a cup of tea, how could he have been standing outside and been unknowingly humiliated?
