"Luohe..."

Yu Chuchu whispered to herself, her eyes full of complicated emotions.

-

The night passed in silence, and time passed silently.

The next morning, sunlight streamed into the room through the window, shining on the two of them.

Luo He slowly opened his eyes, his heart had already returned to calm. Although last night's training did not bring much breakthrough, it still helped his mental state.

As the aroma dissipated, he felt that he had completely regained his sanity and could begin to re-evaluate the situation.

Yu Chuchu had gotten up early and was sitting beside the bed, with her hands on her knees and her eyes closed in meditation.

Her face seemed calm, but beneath that calm exterior, there was a hint of inexplicable fluctuation.

Luo He stood up, stretched, and glanced at Yu Chuchu.

She still had that cold look, picturesque features, and an elegant temperament, but in Luo He's opinion, she didn't seem as indifferent as she appeared, and there was still some uneasiness deep in her heart.

"Senior Sister Yu, it's dawn."

Luo He's voice was low: "We should go out and take a look."

When Yu Chuchu heard his voice, she opened her eyes slightly and looked at Luo He. A strange emotion flashed in her eyes, but she quickly restrained it, nodded, and replied softly: "Well, let's go out and take a look."

"If I want to pass on the current situation to my master, I need to find a suitable space. Otherwise, the sound transmission might be cut off midway."

Yu Chuchu paused and said, "Before coming here, my master told me something. If anything unexpected happens or we encounter any difficulties, we can go find someone who should be able to help us."

Luo He was slightly stunned, and looked at Yu Chuchu with a deep gaze, frowning slightly: "Who to look for? How can he help us?"

He understood that Fairy Canyun was not an ordinary person, and since he mentioned this person, there must be a deeper meaning.

Yu Chuchu lowered her head, as if she was organizing her thoughts.

Her eyes gradually became complicated, with a hint of hidden emotional fluctuations: "That person... is an old friend of my master, also a master, who has helped my master a lot."

She paused, as if trying to choose the right words, and continued, "She's currently in Nantian Pavilion, apparently at the auction. Finding her should help us resolve some of our difficulties."

Luo He nodded slightly.

An auction?

Since he is someone Fairy Canyun knows, he should be trustworthy.

"Okay, let's go find him."

Luo He's voice was calm, but a cold light flashed in his eyes: "If he can really help us as you said, it would be a solution to our predicament."

He didn't ask any more questions, he had already made the decision in his heart.

Yu Chuchu looked up at Luo He, as if trying to judge the meaning of his words, and finally nodded: "Well, let's go, it's not far, we can stop by."

The two walked out of the courtyard one after the other. There was still a faint demonic aura in the air, and the oppressive feeling seemed to still be spreading, reminding them that Nantian Pavilion was not a peaceful place.

Although the relationship between Yu Chuchu and Luo He is still in a delicate state, at this moment, both of them know that only by relying on each other can they overcome the current crisis.

Luo He and Yu Chuchu walked side by side on the way to the auction, and the surrounding scenery gradually changed.

The originally somewhat desolate mountains were gradually replaced by some exquisite buildings, and the streets were bustling with people coming and going, revealing an atmosphere of luxury and busyness.

Although Nan Tian Pavilion looks prosperous on the outside, Luo He can still feel the hidden sense of oppression, like an invisible net covering the sky above the city.

The auction is located in the core area of ​​Nantian Pavilion, where the most expensive treasures and powerful transactions are held.

Luo He had heard of the reputation of this auction. According to rumors, countless rare items would appear here, and even some ancient treasures that had been passed down to this day would appear here.

In this regard, Luo He is more concerned about whether he can use this opportunity to contact the "expert" who can help them.

When they reached the building where the auction was held, they were greeted by a majestic palace-style gate. The door frame was inlaid with huge gems, emitting a mysterious glow.

At the door stood a row of guards in gorgeous robes, each with a fierce look and an aura that could not be violated.

"Please show your admission credentials."

One of the guards spoke in a cold voice, clearly not tolerating anyone entering without any evidence.

Luo He glanced at him indifferently.

Do I still need the usual qualifications? This is really troublesome.

Luo He was not in a hurry to speak, but looked at Yu Chuchu beside him, as if waiting for her instructions.

Yu Chuchu frowned slightly, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes. She obviously hadn't expected this kind of trouble.

"Luo He, we must have a treasure that shows our identity, or sufficient reputation to enter. If we don't have these two, we can't enter unless we can show enough strength."

Yu Chuchu spoke in a low voice, and she was familiar with the rules of the auction venue.

Luo He pondered for a moment: "A treasure? I don't have anything I can show off."

Yu Chuchu also shook her head: "Me...neither."

"We have no reputation, no fame. Which means..."

Luo He turned his head and looked at Yu Chuchu: "We have to show our strength."

Yu Chuchu nodded, with a hint of helplessness in her eyes: "I know, what can we do? We can't go back empty-handed."

As soon as she finished speaking, the guard spoke again, his tone tinged with threat: "If you don't have the qualifications, you might as well leave here. Nantian Pavilion is not a place you can enter casually."

Yu Chuchu sighed softly, feeling a little helpless.

If she wanted to get in touch with her master's old friends, she would have to enter this auction, and without a prominent identity, showing her strength might be the only way.

Seeing that Yu Chuchu didn't respond, Luo He didn't say anything else and whispered, "Why don't we just challenge her directly?"

Ask the questions again during the call!

"From the looks of it, you guys want to show off your strength."

The guard snorted, "There's a martial arts arena next to us. There's a martial arts fanatic there right now. Go and have a fight. If you can win, you might even be able to enter."

Chapter 185: One Strike Ends

Luo He and Yu Chuchu stood beside the martial arts stage, their ears filled with the noise of the onlookers. Their arrival did not attract much attention, as everyone's attention was drawn to the man on the stage.

He was a young man of about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, nearly two meters tall, and his whole body was like a bronze statue.

His muscles were tense, veins bulging, and a golden light shone through his body. His tiger eyes scanned the audience with contempt. Every time he twisted his neck or swung his arms, his bones made a crisp, clacking sound, like a war drum, stirring the restlessness within the crowd.

"Nantian Pavilion actually invited someone from the Tianjiao list to come here."

Yu Chuchu said softly, with a hint of surprise in her tone.

Luo He nodded, his eyes fixed on the man. He could also hear the surrounding people's comments:

"That's Wang Yi, ranked eighth on the Tianjiao list. He's known for his bones of diamond and bronze. I heard he was struck by lightning at birth, and his entire skeleton was tempered into a spiritual body. His current body is as hard as a top-grade magic weapon."

"It's not just his hardness, his strength is also terrifying! Some say he can shatter a mountain with a single punch, and that's without even using his full strength."

"This is amazing. His current realm is the early stage of the Golden Core, but his physical body alone is comparable to that of a cultivator in the middle or even late stage of the Golden Core."

"Yes, this guy is a true monster. The only ones who dare to confront him head-on are probably those geniuses with strong demon bloodlines, right?"

Wang Yi on the stage seemed to be quite pleased with the discussions of the crowd. He opened his arms as if to welcome the applause, with a proud arc at the corner of his mouth.

"What? Nan Tian Pavilion has gathered so many people this time, but there is no one who can fight?"

As he spoke, he paced across the stage. Every time he stepped on the stage, the floor shook slightly, as if demonstrating his strength.

"Are you scared? No one dares to come up? Why don't you all come together, so that I don't have to punch them one by one, and it's too troublesome!"

Wang Yi laughed loudly, his tone full of provocation.

I'll hit ten.

Luo He frowned slightly. He didn't like this kind of showing off, but he had to admit that Wang Yi's strength was indeed intimidating. He turned to look at Yu Chuchu. The latter's expression seemed calm, but there was a hint of interest between her brows.

"Luo He, let me go?" Yu Chuchu said softly, with a hint of temptation in her tone.

Luo He did not answer directly, but looked around.

Many people seemed to be suppressed by Wang Yi's aura, and almost no one dared to go on stage rashly.

Occasionally there are one or two people who are eager to try, but most of them back off, and very few really dare to take the first step.

Suddenly, a voice came from the crowd: "Since no one dares to go up, let me try!"

Everyone turned their heads instantly and saw a young monk walking out from the crowd.

He looked to be in his early twenties, dressed simply, but there was a sense of pride between his brows.

His cultivation level is at the early stage of Golden Core, but compared to a strong man like Wang Yi, his figure appears much thinner.

When Wang Yi saw the man come up on stage, he immediately revealed a contemptuous smile: "Finally you have the courage to come up. But with your small stature, you dare to challenge me? Have you never heard of my name, Wang Yi?"

The monk didn't say anything, just looked at Wang Yi coldly, and then made an attacking gesture.

"Okay, since you are so courageous, I will let you see what the gap is!" Wang Yi shouted, and his fist rushed out with the sound of breaking through the air.

The young monk didn't dare to take it head on and quickly dodged it, but Wang Yi's speed was far beyond his imagination.

Just when everyone thought that the monk was going to be knocked away, he suddenly turned around, went around to the side and back of Wang Yi, and slapped Wang Yi's shoulder with a palm.

Although the palm strike was swift, Wang Yi didn't even raise his eyelids. A golden light suddenly flashed all over his body, and the cultivator's palm strike seemed to hit a solid wall, making a dull sound.

"Little tricks!"

Wang Yi snorted coldly, and struck out with his backhand elbow, knocking the monk back dozens of feet. He fell heavily to the ground, and blood spurted out of his mouth.

"That's it?"

Wang Yi sneered, "It seems that there are really not many decent people in Nantian Pavilion!"

The audience around was in an uproar. The young monk covered his chest with his hands and stood up with difficulty, with unwillingness in his eyes, but he finally lowered his head and walked off the stage.

Yu Chuchu turned her head to look at Luo He: "Luo He, what do you think?"

Luo He pondered for a moment, then raised his head and said slowly: "With this level, leave it to me."

"I'll take the stage."

Luo He's voice was low and firm.

His words were so powerful, like a bolt from the blue, that they instantly attracted everyone's attention.

The air around him seemed to freeze in an instant, and all the audience's eyes turned to him.

Yu Chuchu turned her head to look at Luo He, feeling a little hesitant and worried.

On the stage, Wang Yi's confident posture undoubtedly made him look very powerful, especially since he is well-known on the list of geniuses, his strength should not be underestimated.

As for Luo He, although his stature could not be compared with Wang Yi's and his temperament was low-key, he did not look like a cultivator capable of dealing with Wang Yi's level at all.

Physically, it looks like he is about to be crushed by Wang Yi.

"Luohe..."

Yu Chuchu couldn't help but call out softly, with a hint of worry in her tone.

Luo He turned his head, smiled slightly, and said softly with deep eyes: "Don't worry, trust me."

His calm demeanor seemed to be able to soothe all doubts, and the uneasiness in Yu Chuchu's heart seemed to be slightly relieved at that moment.

However, the other audience members in the audience were not as calm as Yu Chuchu. They all began to whisper and discuss.

"Who the hell is he? He doesn't look that impressive, and I've never met him before. How dare he challenge Wang Yi?"

An elderly monk couldn't help but speak out, his tone full of doubt and disdain.

"Does he think he can defeat Wang Yi? Wang Yi's strength has already reached the top ten of the Tianjiao Ranking. That kid looks like a novice cultivator at best. How could he possibly be Wang Yi's opponent?"

The other monk shook his head with a hint of sarcasm.

Wang Yi stood straight on the stage, his eyes flickering with obvious contempt.

He glanced at Luo He and decided in his heart that this battle was just a boring show and not worth wasting time.

"You come?"

Wang Yi raised his finger contemptuously, a sneer on his face: "Do you think I'll show mercy? I don't know where this ignorant fellow came from. Since you want to die so badly, then come on up."

Wang Yi's voice was not loud, but it was full of provocation, as if he didn't take Luo He seriously at all.
