Chapter 579: The Dungeon Auction Exposed?
Sogo City!
A group of four people went underground from the ground level. As the light dimmed, the noise gradually got closer.

"Excuse me, excuse me, the convoy is about to pass by."

The sound of wheels rolling on the rugged road, accompanied by the cries of livestock, hit me all at once, and the smell was indescribable.

Zhou You, Pei Li, Haili'er and another girl stepped aside to watch.

A long convoy passed slowly, with livestock, porters and escorting warriors passing by one after another.

"The truck was carrying leaky stones, a specialty of Sogo City. No one was interested in them before, but now this business has grown."

The accompanying girl stared at him with her big, kazilan eyes, looking as if she knew everything.

Zhou You and Pei Li looked at each other, both feeling helpless.

This girl is the owner of Qizhen Pavilion. That’s right, she is not the young master, nor the heir to the Pavilion Master, she is the boss herself.

Recalling that Zhou You injured Bu Xiaolin's disciple right at the door of Qizhen Pavilion, he was also called out by her.

It was a chance encounter, and I didn't expect anything to happen next.

The matter of Qianmiantang purchasing heavy talismans was found out by Qizhen Pavilion in a roundabout way and they insisted on taking a part in it.

The girl with the title of 'Master Chang' was determined. The trend of storage pockets had been missed, but the treasure Chongfu would surely trigger another wave of changes, so Qizhen Pavilion must not miss it.

"I, Qizhen Pavilion, am willing to contribute 70% of the purchase."

Although Master Chang is young, he is very decisive. He did not ask the value and directly claimed 7% of the funds.

Zhou Youdu couldn't help but be moved by her courage, and silently raised the original price of the heavy talisman by more than double.

He originally wanted to sell it for 200 million taels for a heavy talisman, but now he can raise the price.

No matter whether it is Qianmiantang or Qizhenge, they are both engaged in monopoly business. They are rich and powerful, and it would be a shame not to take advantage of them.

Not only did she pay, she also wanted to get involved, and even persuaded Chi Ri Qianli to agree.

So, the original three-person group became a four-person group, with two men and two women going to Sogo City together.

"By the way, the leaking stone business in Chongguang City is monopolized by one business company."

"The owner of this business has a legendary life story. He saw an old man and felt sorry for him, so he gave him half a cake."

"What a lucky guy! The old man was none other than Mo Yunzi, the one who gave him the storage bag. He moved a lot of leaky stones and accumulated the first fortune to make a fortune."

"Later, he became a disciple of a martial arts master. With support and connections, he went from being a peasant to a wealthy businessman."

Master Chang knows all about this.

Zhou You resisted the urge to complain. It was not just half a piece of cake. People treated him to a bowl of noodles. He was there at the time. He was the bowl of noodles... Bah, he was Mo Yunzi who ate the noodles.

He only learned about the subsequent situation of the kind-hearted young man today.

Seeing that the convoy had reached the end, a warrior escorting the rear, with rough skin but bright eyes, clasped his fists and saluted towards Zhou You and others, expressing his apology for disturbing them on their journey.

Zhou You recognized at a glance that this warrior was the young man from before, and he smiled.

...After entering the underground city, they did not stop and went directly to the underground auction house.

"It's all ready. We came at the right time, as the 'No More Than Five' auction is about to start."

Zhou You coughed twice, "But I heard that the Xi family is still looking for them."

However, Wu's brutal murder of the Xi family's eldest son created a blood feud that the Xi family is still pursuing.

"It's okay. Anyone who knows that there are only five auction houses and is qualified to enter them will definitely not do anything to spoil the fun."

Pavilion Master Chang spoke in a calm tone, obviously not taking the Xi family's threats seriously.

She whispered to Zhuangli and Haili'er, "If we can't get the important talisman in five consecutive rounds, our hope will be slim." On the second day, the four of them, led by Pavilion Master Chang, entered a secret underground cave.

This kind of terrain is everywhere in Chongguang City and it is very hidden. Even if you have a map, it is useless because the strong can create something out of nothing and open up an underground cave that you can't find.

Obviously, the underground cave where the No. 5 auction house is located is newly opened, and there are palm prints and fingerprints on the walls.

"Ok?"

This was Zhou You’s second time here. He was very familiar with the process and just observed quietly without saying a word.

Suddenly he realized something was wrong.

Sitting in a seat not far away, there was a short guest. Although his appearance and hairstyle were unfamiliar, his energy and blood were very familiar.

This dwarf was actually Qiang Wu, who presided over the auction last time.

In the blink of an eye, the auction has changed its appearance and we have become guests again. What kind of role-playing is this?

Zhou You took a closer look. The dwarf was well disguised and deliberately suppressed his strength to the level of a martial artist. Apart from his shocking size, he did not attract much attention from the museum.

He fell into deep thought. This was only five auction houses, but it looked a bit weird no matter how he looked at it.

"Everyone, welcome to this auction."

A clear female voice was heard. When Zhou You saw the source of the voice, his heart felt like it was hit by a sledgehammer.

On the podium where many eyes were fixed, a tall and beautiful woman appeared with a smile. She was the host of this show.

She has an outstanding appearance, a tall figure, and legs that are so long that it makes your heart flutter. Zhou You couldn't help but want to change her into a cheongsam with a high slit.

There is no doubt that she is a well-deserved strong warrior in terms of both temperament and aura.

Zhou You recognized her. The last time they met, she was a customer at the auction.

It was this woman who caused Xi Junzi to become jealous and disrupt the auction, which led to the tragedy.

Originally, Zhou You thought she was just a female martial artist with a mysterious background, but after meeting her this time, he found out that she was actually one of the shareholders of No. 5 Auction House.

Although the auction house has strictly controlled the customers who participate each time, it tries to keep its secrets.

However, they did not encounter a situation like Zhou You. The last time it was Lu Zhigang who came in his original form.

Based on what he had seen in the two experiences, Zhou You immediately determined the operating style of the No. 5 auction house.

During each auction, there is one person on the stage acting as the host and one person below the stage pretending to be a customer. They work together to ensure that nothing goes wrong.

Zhou You was no longer interested in the following part.

All we know is that the owner of Chang Pavilion was very rich and bought one of the items, and Hailier also bought one.

They bought two out of the five items for auction, which attracted a lot of attention.

Zhou You and Pei Li felt a little embarrassed under so many gazes. The female guest who was traveling with them spent a lot of money, but they came back empty-handed.

There's nothing we can do about it, we're so short of money!
The reason why Lord Chang and Haili'er bought things was not only because they really needed them, but also to get closer to each other.

After the auction, they asked the host to stay and humbly asked about the whereabouts of the "heavy talisman".

"We don't have any heavy talismans on hand. We estimate that it will take a few years before we can get some."

"If you need it urgently, you might as well ask the Golden Immortal Dao."

The beautiful lady Qiangwu was very polite and pointed out the locations of several Golden Immortals in their city.

After she finished speaking, she asked a question that almost made Zhou You break out in a cold sweat, "You looked at me a few times just now, and there was something in your eyes, and then you quickly looked away, which was different from other people. Have you seen me before?"
