Fantasy: The Clan Chief Lies Down, His House Is Full of Emperors

The auction was still going on, but apart from Xu Luo and Xu Qingzhou, no one else knew that the two most valuable items in this Wanbaoge auction had already been sold.

Ancient beast egg and fragments of a top-grade Heavenly Rank martial arts manual.

The monster egg was given to Xu Luo, and the martial arts manual became the Xu family's inherited technique.

Once Tu Jiuming's cave is revealed, Xu Luo will be able to obtain some of Tu Jiuming's inheritances, including the complete "Burning Heaven Annihilation Hand".

When the last item was sold, the stunningly beautiful Yu Shufei smiled gently on the stage.

"This auction by Wanbaoge has now concluded. Thank you all..."

As soon as Xu Qingzhou and his group stepped out of the private room, they saw that the guests from the other private rooms were also coming out one after another.

These were all people of certain status, but Xu Qingzhou didn't know many of them.

Wu Wendong, a true disciple of the Seven Star Sect, had his martial arts skills and Tu Jiuming's inheritance stolen by Xu Muge.

With blood and energy like a dragon and eyes brimming with golden light, the Ninth Prince, Xu Luo, snatched the ancient beast egg that should have belonged to him.

I wonder if he can still seize the throne and ascend to the throne in this life without the help of the ancient mythical beasts.

There was also Lü Zhen. He was going to come over and greet Xu Qingzhou when he saw her, but Song Bufan and his daughter Lü Qingqiu walked towards the Ninth Prince instead. He could only nod to Xu Qingzhou and follow them.

"Your Highness," Song Bufan and Lü Qingqiu greeted respectfully.

The Ninth Prince had been at the Great Qi Academy before, and was their senior, so they had known each other for a long time.

“If I had known you were coming too, we could have come together,” the Ninth Prince said with a warm smile.

He became famous at the Daqi Academy for his approachable and respectful manner and his exceptional talent.

Although the position of crown prince has been decided, several princes have not given up. Regardless of their private lives, they must behave properly when they are out in public.

Song Bufan quickly replied, "Qingqiu had to go home first, so we left earlier."

Lu Qingqiu looked at the Ninth Prince with eyes full of admiration and love.

Ever since Lü Qingqiu entered the Great Qi Academy, the Ninth Prince has been the perfect match in her mind.

This is why she has been slow to respond to Song Bufan's pursuit and completely dislikes Xu Qingzhou.

After all, Song Bufan was far inferior to the Ninth Prince, and Xu Qingzhou was completely unqualified to compare.

At that moment, Lü Qingqiu really wanted to say, "If I had known you were coming too, I wouldn't have gone home."

Moreover, Lü Qingqiu did not return to Lü Zhenshou's banquet because he had an opportunity to see the Ninth Prince.

The Ninth Prince looked at Lü Zhen.

"This must be Lord Lü."

Lu Zhen was slightly surprised and quickly cupped his hands, saying, "Lu Zhen, the city lord of Yuhe City, greets Your Highness the Prince."

He never expected that the Ninth Prince knew about him.

As a cunning old fox, he immediately realized that this Ninth Prince was no ordinary person.

He must have investigated everyone he met at the Great Qi Academy, including where their families lived and which members of their families held official positions in the court.

The reason for doing this is quite simple: to build connections, expand one's network, increase one's power base, and prepare for the struggle for succession.

This made Lü Zhen very uneasy.

The Ninth Prince has a noble status and is indeed more worthy of following, but he wants to seize the throne, and it would be great if he succeeded.

But if they fail, they will be held accountable. All the efforts the Lü family has made over the years will be in vain, or even completely destroyed.

Unless he sees that the Ninth Prince has a very high chance of winning, he will not rashly lead the Lü family to take sides.

But he was also afraid that the Ninth Prince would target him if he refused, which was why he was uneasy.

“Lord Lü, there’s no need to be so polite. I am Qingqiu’s senior brother, so you should be my senior as well,” the Ninth Prince replied.

His approachable nature earned him high praise from many around him.

Just then, Xu Qingzhou and his group passed by.

The Ninth Prince suddenly looked at Xu Muge.

"You must be the new disciple that Senior Su Xin took in before. I heard that you have exceptional talent. I hope you can grow up quickly so that we can have a competition."

"There will be opportunities," Xu Muge replied casually.

He knew that he was the most talented disciple in the history of the Lingyue Sect and the hope for its future.

The Qi royal family was the last to want to see themselves grow up.

They might secretly send countless people to get rid of me.

Although the Ninth Prince spoke with integrity, if it were just the two of them here, he probably would have killed himself with a single palm strike.

Lu Qingqiu asked in confusion, "Father, how come Xu Qingzhou is with him?"

“He is a member of the Xu family,” Lü Zhen replied.

Lu Qingqiu was stunned for a moment before she finally understood why her father wanted to match her with Xu Qingzhou. It turned out it was because of him.

This made Lü Qingqiu somewhat dissatisfied with Lü Zhen, and at the same time, he looked down on Xu Qingzhou even more. Without the Xu family's prodigy, he was nothing.

It's laughable that someone like that wants to marry me.

Upon hearing their conversation, a cold glint flashed in the Ninth Prince's golden eyes.

After leaving Wanbaoge, Xu Muge met up with the sect elders who had come to attend the auction, and they prepared to go back together.

Xu Muge looked at Zheng Guan, "Senior brother, could you please take them back?"

After all, they had just attended an auction, and Xu Qingzhou's strength was insufficient to prevent them from encountering bandits on the way back. It would be safer for them to have Zheng Guan escort them.

“It’s nothing, don’t worry about it,” Zheng Guan readily agreed.

Upon arriving at the city gate, Xu Muge said reluctantly, "Uncle, I'm going back now. It's getting late, you should all go back early too."

“Okay, let’s go now,” Xu Qingzhou waved his hand.

Xu Muge jumped onto the Lingyue Sect's flying boat, looked at Xu Qingzhou, and had a complicated expression.

[My dear uncle, for a while now, whenever I saw my senior sister, I would try my best to praise you and bring you two together, but your cultivation level was just too low. My senior sister was already at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm, while you were only at the mid-stage of the Profound Core realm. The gap was too big, and you were exposed as soon as you met her.]

[I hope you cultivate diligently and catch up with your senior sister as soon as possible, so I can arrange for you to meet, get married, and have some younger cousins ​​for me.]

Xu Qingzhou was both amused and exasperated, but also very pleased.

I thought this kid was just acting on a whim, but I didn't expect him to still remember it.

Not bad, not bad, it wasn't all for nothing that I spoiled you.

However, I can't possibly work hard at it. You should focus on your cultivation and let the system give me more cultivation points in return.

After Xu Muge left, Xu Luo returned to Lingyue City, bought some things needed to hatch monster eggs, and then set off back to Yuhe City accompanied by Zheng Guan.
