Xiandao Linglong

Chapter 47 Mysterious Woman

"Be quiet! This is not the place for you to mess around. If anyone starts trouble here, I will make sure he pays for it!"

Just when the man and the mysterious man were about to escalate the conflict and start a fight, a weathered voice sounded. The voice could only be heard but the person could not be seen, which showed how powerful the person was!

Places like this where treasures are piled up like mountains are always supported by powerful forces. Even the various sects in the world of immortal cultivation are unwilling to provoke them easily.

Firstly, it is a win-win cooperation for both parties. Secondly, it is an unwritten rule in the world of immortal cultivation that it is not allowed to snatch treasures at this auction. Otherwise, it will not be allowed by the world!

But there are also some who are not afraid of death, or the treasures are really so rare that it is worth sacrificing everything, even their lives, to take a chance.

Generally, people's identities would not be easily revealed in such matters. Otherwise, even a disciple of Qiongyang Sect, the world's number one sect for cultivating immortals, would find it difficult to escape unscathed!

"Mr. Hu is right. I, the younger generation, will naturally abide by the rules!"

The man was humiliated again, but this time he had to put on a smile, simply because the person who showed up this time was an old senior who was quite prestigious in Yi Yang City. Even the people who supported him had to respectfully perform the salute of a junior when they saw him!

The next few auctions were just like the previous two. As long as the man opened the bidding, the mysterious person behind him would bid!

Everyone on the field watched the two of them fighting endlessly as if they were watching a show. Some people with similar status and background even laughed at the defeated man!

"The next item is the final treasure of our auction! An ancient ruins map! It is said that this relic has been passed down to high-level spiritual herbs and the secret treasures of major ancient sects. As everyone knows, in the path of immortal cultivation, one's achievements depend entirely on personal luck. Many people have achieved great success overnight thanks to luck, so I think everyone knows the value of this relic map. Therefore, there is no reserve price for this final item. Please bid freely, and the highest bidder wins!"

The auctioneer bid up the price of this slightly damaged map with just a few words, as if obtaining this map would bring one a great opportunity and a sudden rise to fame.

Although it is a bit exaggerated, it is true that in these ruins, the opportunities and treasures left behind by the ancient great men after their death are all things that cannot be obtained by practicing hard in seclusion on one's own. That is why ancient ruins are so popular!

"Twenty taels!"

"Twenty-five taels!"

"Thirty-three taels!"

"Fifty taels!"

The mysterious man suddenly raised the price to a level that made it difficult for many people to compete. Seeing his generous personality, everyone had no choice but to give up!

"Sixty taels!" said the man in the front row who had just started arguing, as if he was determined to win.

Watching the fiercely competitive crowd, Ye Qi looked down at the less than 300,000 taels of silver in his pocket and thought to himself, "These people probably have to arrange for someone to carry their silver every time they travel! They're truly a wealthy bunch!"

"Eighty taels!" The mysterious man spoke again without any surprise!

"You...are really brave..."

Seeing that he raised the price by two hundred thousand as soon as he opened his mouth, the man stood up angrily and pointed at him, but then he remembered that Mr. Hu had just warned him, so he could only grit his teeth and swallow his anger!

"Final price! Eighty taels! This auction ends here!"

After the auction ended, the auctioneer signaled the maid to deliver the map of the ruins to the mysterious man. Along the way, everyone in the venue stared at the wooden box in the maid's hand with eager eyes, and greedy expressions were written on everyone's cheeks!

Ye Qi sensed the strange atmosphere and immediately turned around and left the auction venue. To be honest, he was also full of desire for this map.

Although he didn't know what crucial role this map played, it was better than nothing. After all, he was determined to obtain the Soul-Condensing Golden Leaf, but this matter still needed long-term consideration!

"You are Mr. Ye, right?"

Just as the auctioneer was leaving, he stopped by Ye Qi as he passed by. Looking closer, he saw that she was graceful and pretty, with delicate features. Compared with Jingshu, she had a touch of maturity and charm. It was no exaggeration to describe her as a seductive little goblin!

"Sister, do you know me?" Ye Qi came back to his senses and asked.

"My master wants to see you. Mr. Ye, could you please come with me?"

The auctioneer spoke very respectfully, which made Ye Qi feel confused. But thinking that the owner of the auction house was also a person of status and position, he would definitely not make things difficult for a young man like him who was just starting out, so he nodded and followed her out!

As I walked up the stairs to the third floor, it was much quieter than the second floor, but there was also a sense of oppression. It seemed that the third floor of this auction house was really full of hidden talents!

"Young Master! My master is inside, please come in!" The auctioneer brought Ye Qi to the door of a room and said.

Ye Qi felt a little nervous, not knowing what this rich and powerful man wanted to talk to him about. But thinking that if he wanted to obtain the Soul-Condensing Golden Leaf, he could only go through the auction house. Since he was already here, he might as well make the best of it and not offend anyone if he could, so he pushed the door and walked in!

"Ye Qi boy! How was it? Did you take pictures of what you wanted?"

A familiar voice sounded, and Ye Qi looked closely. The middle-aged man in front of him turned around and revealed a familiar face.

"Boss Li... Boss Li? Are you the boss of this auction house?" Ye Qi asked in surprise.

"Hey! Why call me Boss Li? Just call me Uncle Li!" Uncle Li walked up, looked at the stunned Ye Qi, patted him on the shoulder and said.

"Uncle Li! Hehe!" Ye Qi smiled a little embarrassedly.

Suddenly, he remembered that he had something important to do. Although he did not win the map of the ruins related to the Soul-Condensing Golden Leaf at the auction, he thought that there must be other ways to get the Soul-Condensing Golden Leaf at this auction. Since Boss Li asked him to come, he must have something he wanted to ask for his help, which could be considered a deal.

After all, Jingshu's accident was partly due to him, so he immediately said, "Uncle Li! I came here to look for the Soul-Condensing Golden Leaf. Shu'er is in trouble and urgently needs the Soul-Condensing Golden Leaf. I wonder if Uncle Li has any way to find it?"

"Don't worry! Don't worry! I called you here just for this!"

As he spoke, Uncle Li slowly walked back to his desk, patted the sandalwood box on the table, and said with a slight smile: "Boy! Come and see what this is!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Qi hurriedly stepped forward and opened the sandalwood box. The moment he opened it, a hint of disappointment appeared in his eyes. The box did not contain the Soul-Condensing Golden Leaf that he had been longing for, but a slightly rusty iron plate!

"Don't underestimate it! This is the real treasure, the key to unlocking the secret room in the ruins! As for whether you can find the Soul-Condensing Golden Leaf, it all depends on your luck!"
