Chapter 175
"Oh, the guest in the private room No. 2 was actually interested in this robes. He had already bid up to a high price of 150 spirit stones. So I wonder if the guests in the private room No. 4 were still ready to bid?" When he heard someone bid again, Fatty Wu started performing again as if he had a chicken blood injected.
In the private room, the Fourth Prince and Mo Ziyan both looked at him and were waiting for his decision. Although Mo Ziyan's eyes became dull, there was still a hint of expectation in those eyes. The Fourth Prince was more about watching the fun, and perhaps wanted to use this to touch the details of this person. After all, a high-level monk with extraordinary strength and wealth is the target of many forces competing for.
Liu Muqing curled his lips secretly. He knew who the person in the No. 2 private room was without having to look at. Except for the eldest prince who had a rift with him, no one else could offend him. After all, he is in the fourth prince's private room now, representing the fourth prince's power.
Liu Muqing thought about it, then smiled and said to the outside: "Since His Highness likes it, let it go to you, but I think you are also used to give it to Zi Yan, so don't argue with you anymore. Remember to send the clothes over after you pay!"
Liu Muqing's voice was very crisp. After saying this, the entire auction hall suddenly became quiet. He stared at the No. 4 private room with surprise. Some people's mouth twitched repeatedly, as if they wanted to hilariously, but they forced themselves to endure it, making their whole face turn red.
"Shameless!"
"Shameless..."
"Is there anyone in this world who is more shameless than him?"
“…”
Everyone couldn't help but hear such a voice in their hearts, and they also developed a strong interest in the person in the No. 4 private room.
"Hahahaha, it's interesting, it's so interesting, it's so funny, I'm so laughing!" Just as everyone was feeling uncomfortable, a rampant laughter suddenly rang out in the venue, like a fuse, instantly igniting the emotions of the whole audience, and a huge burst of laughter broke out in the huge auction venue.
In the private room No. 2, the glass jade cups were broken all over the floor. These precious things that were as precious as spirit stones were now broken like useless garbage. The eldest prince Mu Ying's face was deep and terrifying. A stream of murderous aura with a strong chest kept spreading out from him, as if endless.
A man in black armor sat quietly opposite the eldest prince. He drank tea gently, and then said coldly: "Do I need to help you get rid of him!"
The eldest prince raised his head suddenly and looked at the black-armored man. After a long time, he couldn't help but sigh and returned to the look of an iron-blooded soldier. He shook his head and said, "No hurry. In eight years, he will participate in the Fourth Domain Competition. It will not be too late to kill him again. The only thing I worry about now is that the person next door is so favored and able to use my father's private room!"
The man in black armor laughed, showed a disdainful expression, and said, "It's just a love of licking the calf. The third prince died unexpectedly when he was in his prime, which made the emperor favor this grandson, but it also proved in disguise that he would never have the possibility of competing for the throne. You can rest assured of this!"
The person who laughed out loud just now was not someone else, but the domineering little prince that Liu Muqing saw in Yipintang. This person was the son of the third prince. His father died decades ago. At that time, he was just a baby in a cradle. He was then sent to the palace and was taught by His Majesty the Emperor himself. After he was fifteen years old, he opened a government office to build a yamen and left the palace. However, this favor did not decrease at all, but became more and more intense.
After such a fuss, the atmosphere of the entire auction venue seemed a bit strange. More and more people focused their attention on those private rooms instead of the auction items. This made Fatty Wu a little anxious. After thinking about it, he made a decision.
"Friends of the Taoist, the highlight of this auction will begin early. This item is very extraordinary. Many high-level monks have been peeping at it for a long time. It took a lot of effort to get it. Please appreciate it!"
After saying that, Fatty Wu waved his hand and suddenly golden flowers scattered in the sky. When the golden flowers fell, they gradually gathered together. A golden cage appeared on the platform. A small beast that looked like a leopard and a cat appeared in it. The little beast had a strong fear in its eyes and kept trying to hide, but where was there a place to hide in this golden cage.
This young beast is golden all over, as if it was made of gold, and it is full of spirituality. It can actually understand a lot of what the monks said. Seeing so many people staring at it, I couldn't help but be even more afraid.
"Huh!"
In the private room, even the fourth prince who had been sitting there couldn't help but stand up, staring at the small cub, and then shook his head after a while, and smiled bitterly: "The person with this jade pearl is really bold. He dared to auction this item. Are you not afraid that the ancestor Jinhong will come to trouble them?"
"Ancestor Jinhong? Who is that?" Liu Muqing naturally saw the cub. When the Fourth Prince said this, he couldn't help but become curious and asked.
Mo Ziyan glared at him angrily, not knowing what it meant, but she was full of charm. She explained: "This Jinhong Ancestor is a strong man around the imperial capital. He lives on the Blood Pillar Mountain. There are golden leopards everywhere, all of which are his descendants. If outsiders want to capture one, they will inevitably be chased by Jinhong Ancestor. Moreover, his methods are extremely cruel and terrifying. Any monk he caught must be completely destroyed, and he has no chance of reincarnation.
Liu Muqing heard this and continued to ask: "What kind of strange thing is this golden leopard that it actually attracts so many people to come and capture it!"
Mo Ziyan continued: "The golden leopard is very spiritual. It is rumored that the blood of the Qilin is circulating on it. The most important thing is that this spiritual beast contains something called the Golden Spirit Blood Bead, which is an important material for the cultivator to practice the external incarnation. Therefore, so many people risk their lives to poach the Golden Leopard Mountain. As for this young beast, although it has not condensed the Golden Spirit Blood Bead, if it is properly cultivated, it will have almost unlimited effects on the monks, and it can even be equivalent to the second incarnation!"
"External incarnation? Second incarnation!!"
Liu Muqing exclaimed in surprise, then nodded and understood: "So that's it. No wonder so many people are eyeing this golden leopard. I didn't expect it to be so useful. I am not strong enough, otherwise I would even want to raise one!"
"Everyone, this is an opportunity that is rare in a thousand years. I think you will not give up. I will not say much nonsense. The minimum price is 500 top-grade spirit stones, and the price increase must not be less than fifty each time. You can start!" Fatty Wu pointed to the golden cub in the cage and said excitedly.
"Six hundred"
"Seven hundred!"
"Eight hundred!"
"one thousand!"
However, in a short while, the price of this young beast had soared to more than a thousand, which only stunned the monks below. Most of them were sect cultivators, or some powerful casual cultivators. Even some of them were worth similar to those of Liu Muqing, but only hundreds of top-grade spirit stones, but now they opened their eyes. A small spirit beast was actually worth thousands of top-grade spirit stones.
Although Liu Muqing was moved by this, he was not ready to bid. Moreover, he also found that many princes present did not bid. The real people who were chasing this were the casual cultivators or the elders of the sect. Although these people were also in the private room, they were still obviously different from those of the royal family.
"Fourth Prince, how powerful is that Jinhong Ancestor?"
Hearing Liu Muqing's question, the fourth prince couldn't help but turn his head to look at him, shaking his folding fan slightly, and then said, "Why, Brother Liu is also interested in this cub?"
Liu Muqing shook his head and said, "I am alone, so how could there be so many spirit stones? I'm just curious to ask!"
"Oh, so that's it. But Brother Liu, don't worry. I believe you will see that Jin Hong Ancestor soon. With his personality, he will never sit idly by and watch his descendants be auctioned off!" The fourth prince said to Liu Muqing with a smile, looking confident.
Naturally, Liu Muqing would not say anything else, and sat on the cushion and waited for the good show to take place.
"Three thousand spirit stones, the first time!"
"Three thousand spirit stones, the second time!"
"Three thousand spirit stones, the third..."
"Boom boom boom!"
A series of huge explosions sounded from the top of the auction, as if a giant was holding a sledgehammer and constantly pounding the roof. The deafening sound was like a mountain god beating a drum or roaring like thunder, which was terrifying.
The bright golden patterns around the surroundings kept lit up and gradually intertwined into a brilliant pattern. Lines like golden threads flew out from it, gathering into a large net in the air, trying to cover it and prevent damage.
However, at this moment, a fist that covered the sky suddenly appeared in the sky. The fist was shining brightly, as if thousands of runes were flowing in it. With one punch, the golden net instantly turned into thousands of spiritual lights and disappeared. However, the golden fist did not diminish at all, and fell down with a loud bang, smashing a huge hole in the roof of the entire auction pavilion.
"Ah! What's going on? What's going on?"
"Is it the ancestor Jinhong..."
"It's Jinhong Ancestor, Jinhong Ancestor is here!"
Under such oppression, many people realized that the person who had just shown great power was the famous Jinhong Ancestor. The powerful actually came overwhelmingly. Even Liu Muqing could deeply feel the horror in the private room. It felt like a mountain suddenly pressing on his back, which made him unable to help but lower his head.
The fourth prince looked at Liu Muqing in surprise, with a strong curiosity flashing in his eyes. He knew the strength of the Jinhong Ancestor. It would be easy for him to kill everyone in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul to kill everyone in the field, and his aura would be difficult for him, even the person at the peak of the Dan Condensation Stage, but the person in front of him could bear it. It has to be said that it was a miracle.
"It seems that we still need to have a deep friendship in the future. Such people still have room for growth!" The Fourth Prince thought to himself.
The Jinhong Ancestor stood in the void like an immortal, accompanied by terrifying energy venting around him, even shattering the void.
He looked at the people below coldly, like a giant looking at a group of ants, quite cold. Finally, he focused his eyes on the golden cage, and his face became even colder in an instant.
"I actually imprisoned my descendants and dared to auction them in public. I see that the Wu Xiezi and the others are so brave that they really think I dare not demolish his lair!"
The ancestor Jinhong snorted coldly, and with a wave of his hand, a light of inspiration flew out and fell into the golden cage. With a slight sound of "crack", the golden cage was smashed by the aura. The golden cage screamed happily, quickly pounced out, and came to the arms of the ancestor Jinhong.
The young beast screamed a few aggrievedly, as if telling the terrifying experiences these days. It can be seen that it is very dependent on the ancestor Jinhong. After entering his arms, it no longer comes out, as if it has found a warm harbor.
"Jinhong, you saved your child, and you also raised the roof of my auction pavilion. If you are still angry, don't ask me to swear. I just want to keep my reputation. Don't say that your child was auctioned. Even if someone sent it to the royal family for auction, I will take it over!"
Below, a figure made of clouds suddenly appeared on the high platform. His facial features were blurry, and no matter how he looked, it was hard to see clearly. However, since he dared to talk to Jin Hong's ancestor like this, he thought that his strength was not much different.
Jin Hong didn't buy it very much, and smiled coldly and said, "A man in the royal family? Wu Xiezi, you are a lie to me. Don't think that if you give me news, you can let me go. If there is no other compensation today, you will completely turn this auction hall into ashes!"
When the five evil son heard this, he was furious. His arms made of clouds were raised high and said to Jin Hong: "Cao, I really think I'm afraid you won't do it. I have five people. Do you believe it or not and I will beat you up. If you really dare to demolish my auction pavilion, I will... I will... I will go to the Emperor's Majesty to sue you!"
After hearing this, Jin Hong couldn't help laughing and said wildly: "Your Majesty the Emperor? When he sees me, he has to call me uncle. Do you think he will help you or me!"
When Wu Xiezi heard this, he was like a deflated ball. He rolled his eyes and said helplessly: "Old Ghost Jinhong, don't go around with me. Just say whatever you like, don't talk nonsense, okay!"
"Hahaha, okay, this is what you said, then I'm disrespectful. I just looked at it. It seems that there is a broken Tianling Treasure behind your auction pavilion. I will barely accept it!" Old Ancestor Jin Hong was not polite and said directly.
When the Wu Xiezi heard this, his face changed drastically and he stared at Jin Hong with gritted teeth. However, Jin Hong was not willing to be outdone and stared at him fiercely. Finally, the Wu Xiezi waved his hand and fired a light of inspiration, wrapped in something and flew out from the backstage and handed it to Jin Hong Ancestor.
"Don't make trouble again after collecting the things. Jinhong, you should leave. I will continue this auction!" Wu Xiezi said angrily.
Jin Hong was not in a hurry. After taking down the Tianling Treasure, she suddenly turned her eyes to the No. 1 private room. Then she pointed her fingers and suddenly a golden light flew out from her fingers. In an instant, she cut the No. 1 private room in half. A man and a woman in the private room were sitting upright on the ground, with her expressions very calm, but she was also stunned by this sudden blow.
This man and woman are not others, but Mu Ming and Shui Ning. I don’t know how Mu Ming invited this saint from Yiyuan Sect to accompany him to participate in the auction.
The eyes of the Jinhong Ancestor fell on Mu Ming, and gradually a murderous intent condensed from his eyes. The huge power of pressure was pressing on Mu Ming like a mountain. Although Mu Ming was talented and had extraordinary cultivation, he had already cultivated to the level of the elixir condensed stage at a young age, he was facing the ancestor of the Nascent Soul stage. After all, he was facing the ancestor of the Nascent Soul stage. Every person like this was a heaven-defying existence, and every person was an extremely strong person.
"thump!"
Mu Ming could no longer bear it and lay on the ground. His stubborn face was full of unyielding expressions, as if he wanted to break free and try his best to stand up, but no matter how hard he tried, it was still useless.
"Uncle Jin, forget it, he is still a child after all!"
At this moment, a faint voice suddenly sounded from the depths of the palace in the inner city. This sound seemed to penetrate the sky and fell into everyone's ears. It made people feel trembling in their hearts, and they even had the urge to kneel down and worship.
"Father!"
"emperor!"
Many people directly under the court couldn't help but kneel down, including the royal family and the twelve paths of the Seven Palaces. At this moment, the man deep in the palace was really like the Emperor of Heaven, who ruled the world.
Uncle Jin obviously refers to the ancestor Jin Hong. It seems that the other party did not say anything nonsense. Even if His Majesty the Emperor saw him, he couldn't help calling him Uncle Jin.
The ancestor Jinhong turned his head slightly, his golden eyes seemed to be able to see through the void, and he seemed to be looking at a man. After a long time, he suddenly sighed and said, "Master, I can forgive him for your sake this time, but Mu Ming will not leave the imperial capital from now on. This is my final concession!"
Mu Ming was frightened by the words of the Jinhong Ancestor. He had ideals and ambitions, and many plans had not yet been implemented. How could he stay in the imperial capital? He hurriedly shouted to the sky: "Grandpa Emperor, no... don't agree to him..."
However, there was no response in the air. After a long time, a sigh-like voice slowly rang out, and he heard him say, "Okay, I promise you that Mu Ming will not leave the imperial capital from now on, and if he leaves, life and death will be determined by heaven!"
The ancestor Jinhong nodded, and his big hand turned into a golden light and disappeared into the void. Mu Ming, who was lying on the ground, disappeared at this moment, as if he had never appeared before, but the situation was so strange.
