Black Fairy, the master is a female ghost

In box number three, Wu Ya whispered, "No one dares to buy this thing. If word gets out, the Crown Prince will definitely come investigate us."

Lu Xun Huan pointed at Yun Zhongzi and said, "If the Crown Prince asks, you can just say that the Great Elder auctioned it off. His original intention was to use this fake thing to raise funds for the development of Treasure City."

Wu Ya asked Yun Zhongzi, "Great Elder, this has no effect on you, right?"

Yun Zhongzi chuckled and said, "If the Crown Prince comes to ask you, just let him come to me."

The three of them exchanged a few words, and then everyone started to disperse from the auction house.

But there are also a few people who procrastinate and leave it to the last minute.

Yun Zhongzi whispered, "Except for a few people who haven't left the scattered seats, the people in Box One haven't left either."

Wu Ya said, "Box No. 1 is waiting for us to deliver the Immortal Sword."

She stood up and said, "I'll go and see it off myself. I have to see who it is."

After leaving Box No. 3, she went straight to the backstage downstairs. Lots No. 1, 2, and 4 were all sold. The winners paid and left with the lots.

As for the third item, the eighth-rank immortal sword, the beautiful host was about to take it to box number one.

Wu Ya took the long box from her and said, "I'll go. You performed very well today. I'll give you a reward later."

The beautiful emcee bowed and said, "Thank you, boss."

Wu Ya held the long box containing the magic sword, went upstairs again, and walked to the door of Box No. 1.

"Dear guest, I've brought you lot number three. Would you be able to come in?"

The door opened, and a woman opened it, and behind her sat a man.

The woman looked at the Tuya Auction House clothing on Wuya and gestured, "Please come in."

Wu Ya walked in holding the long box, walked to the side of the man, and bowed, saying, "Dear guest, the eighth-level immortal sword has been delivered. Please inspect it."

She placed the long box on the table and opened the lid.

The magic sword with a sheath appeared in the box.

Wu Ya gestured, "Please."

The man was about forty years old, about the same age as Wu Ya, with a fair complexion and quite a temperament.

He reached out and grasped the scabbard, took out the magic sword, and then slowly drew the sword out of the sheath.

That immortal sword was like a pool of autumn water, containing extraordinary power.

Even a layman like Wu Ya can see its extraordinaryness.

After the man pulled out half of the sword, he used the light to carefully examine the tiny runes carved on the sword.

The higher or lower grade of the immortal sword will naturally bring different combat power bonuses to the user.

Therefore, the runes must also be different. The higher the grade, the more complex the rune.

The weapon-refining masters of each sect have strict regulations on the materials used when forging immortal swords of different grades.

The materials used to forge a seventh-tier immortal sword can never be used to forge an eighth-tier immortal sword.

Moreover, in order to make it easier to distinguish between the different levels of immortal swords, the immortals in the world also have corresponding requirements.

In the composition of the rune pattern, each grade has obvious characteristics. No matter how complex the rune is, the characteristics are very obvious.

Even people who don't understand fairy swords can tell the grade of a fairy sword by its obvious features when they draw it out of its sheath.

With the help of the light, the man saw the faint character "eight" in the rune combination. This is the distinctive feature of the eighth-level immortal sword.

He nodded slightly, sheathed the sword, and placed the magic sword into the long box.

Then, he took out the banknotes and slowly counted them while asking, "Can I have a look at that bone?"

Wu Ya asked, "Is your Excellency interested?"

The man counted out a hundred thousand silver notes, and then added one for a thousand taels: "Bring it here and see it."

Wu Ya accepted the banknote and bowed, saying, "Please wait a moment, distinguished guest."

After leaving box number one, she immediately went into box number three.

"In box number one, there is a man about my age, accompanied by a woman, who must be his subordinate. He paid an extra 1,000 taels of silver to see the bone."

Lu Xunhuan gestured, “Show him.”

Lu Xunhuan went to great lengths to make a fake dragon skeleton in order to use it for fishing.

The target of fishing is the members of Shenlong Pavilion.

After a while, Wu Ya entered Box No. 1 again, holding the inconspicuous box.

She placed the box on the table: "Dear guest, please."

The man opened the lid of the box, picked up the bone, looked at it carefully over and over again, and sniffed it from time to time.

After a while, he asked, "Where did it come from?"

Wu Ya replied, "To be honest, this bone was provided to our auction house by Yun Zhongzi, the Grand Elder of Yuntai Mountain. He claimed it was a dragon bone, but we couldn't verify it, so we made it clear to everyone during the auction."

The man looked at the bone for a while, but couldn't seem to figure out what it was. He said, "It's almost impossible that this is a dragon bone. I gave you an extra thousand taels. Please give me this bone."

Wu Ya pretended to be embarrassed and said, "Great Elder Yun Zhongzi said that if no one takes the picture, we should send it back to him."

The man said, "Just tell Great Elder Yun Zhongzi that it was auctioned off, but..."

He changed the subject and said, "You also know that dragon bones are very sensitive. If the Crown Prince sends someone to investigate, you will return them to Great Elder Yun Zhongzi."

Wu Ya said, "I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain this to the Great Elder."

The man took out another banknote, counted out nine thousand taels, and handed it to Wu Ya: "Tell the Great Elder that ten thousand taels was bought by someone, but he has to protect me from the Crown Prince."

He stood up, put the bone into the wooden box and held it up.

Then, he said to the woman, "Pick up the magic sword, it's time for us to go."

Wu Ya watched them leave the box without saying anything else, which was considered as tacit agreement that the bone had been sold for ten thousand taels.

She waited in the private room for a while, and guessed that the man had already gone downstairs, so she hurried to box number three.

She reported to Lu Xunhuan, "The man bought the bone for 10,000 taels and asked the Great Elder to help stop the Crown Prince."

Yun Zhongzi smiled and said, "No problem."

He stood up and said to Lu Xunhuan, "Be careful."

Then he opened the door of the box and went out.

Wu Ya handed the ten thousand taels to Lu Xun Huan and asked, "Where did he go?"

Lu Xun Huan replied, "I have something urgent to do. Where is the window?"

After a while, a carriage stopped at the door of the auction house.

The man took the woman into the carriage, and then the carriage turned around and headed west along the street.

On the second floor of the auction house, Lu Xunhuan stood at the window, silently watching the carriage leave.

Then, he saw Yun Zhongzi's figure flash and disappear.

Wu Ya asked softly from behind him, "What are you looking at?"

Lu Xunhuan lifted his hat from behind and put it on his head: "Please send a carriage to take me back."

Wu Ya nodded: "Okay, I'll have someone send you the painting and the money for the eighth-level immortal sword later."
