Su Yu shook his head. "Senior, you must be joking. How could an outer sanctum disciple like me make this elixir?"
Upon hearing this, they exchanged a glance and couldn't help but feel disappointed.
After all, if an outer sanctum disciple had such an ability, why would he still be in the outer sanctum? He would have been recruited into the inner sanctum, nurtured, and protected!
"Seniors, I recently took over the position of the shopkeeper of one of the elixir stores in the Red Blood Palace. A mysterious old man came to my store last night and asked me to hand it over to the auction house. If this item can be auctioned at the price he wants and attract attention, he is willing to give me the Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid at any time and sell it in my store."
What? Disappointment flashed across their faces and was replaced by surprise. "Is what you said true?"
Su Yu cupped his hands at them and said, "Every word I said is true!"
"Haha! Great! Heaven has blessed our Red Blood Palace's elixir stores! I will report this matter to the higher-ups. Lad, come with me to meet the higher-ups. They will surely be interested in you!" Old Sun and Old Yu were extremely excited. They had obtained this elixir liquid at the last moment, and they could definitely give the Central Prefecture's elixir stores a slap in the face at the auction house in three days!
Su Yu's eyes flickered as he said, "That won't be necessary. I don't know much about that mysterious old man, so I won't be able to explain it to the higher-ups. As long as our Red Blood Palace's auction house can make this item famous, I believe that old man will keep his promise!"
At the same time, Su Yu took out another complete Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid and said, "I have another one here, and it's a finished product. The one you just used was a defective product. You can take it out at the auction house."
The two old men's eyes lit up. Is there an even more powerful finished product?
Since the defective product is already so amazing, wouldn't the finished product be even more powerful?
After receiving the second elixir liquid, Old Sun said, "Since you don't want to meet the higher-ups, we won't stop you. This is the auction house's VIP card. Give it to that old man, and he can use it to watch the auction in the auction house's VIP room. I hope that old man can come and support us."
After giving the VIP card to Su Yu, they left the secret room in a hurry. Then, they went to meet the auction house's manager.
They went to a plain hall in the depths of the auction house.
At this moment, there were two groups of people outside the palace. One group was the Red Blood Palace's guards, while the other group surprised Old Sun and Old Yu.
"Old Yu, what happened today? Even the Tianya Auction House's Great Appraiser has come here. The person beside him seems to be the famous Thousand Hands Old Xian." Old Sun was surprised by this. People of the same trade were enemies, and they didn't have any dealings with each other. Even if they had dealings with each other, they would be low-level people. As for the Tianya Auction House's Great Appraiser, he wasn't a low-level person.
The captain of the guards outside the door asked, "Are the two elders here to see Palace Master Xiao?"
Old Sun withdrew his gaze and nodded, "En, please inform the Temple Master that we have something urgent to report."
How could they not understand that the Hall Master had been troubled by this matter recently? If he knew that he had found such a treasure, he would definitely be overjoyed.
The captain hesitated for a moment, then said, "Fine, wait for a moment, I will go and inform them. However, don't hold too much hope, as the Palace Master is currently meeting with the Tianya Auction House's Master."
Master? Old Sun and Old Yu shuddered, and their eyes were filled with astonishment.
The Tianya Auction House's Master was a mysterious person, and both his identity and origins were a mystery that couldn't be solved.
He rarely showed himself, and even the Tianya Auction House's internal staff couldn't always see him. However, everyone was aware that he was the person in charge of the Tianya Auction House.
Why did he come to the Red Blood Palace's Auction House personally? The two elders were shocked.
The captain of the guards entered the hall, and they saw a man and a woman sitting opposite each other, chatting.
They were both middle-aged.
The man had dashing eyebrows, bright eyes, and a carefree appearance. He was the Red Blood Palace's Auction House's Master, Xiao Yao.
The woman sitting opposite him was a middle-aged woman with a delicate appearance. She wore a long black dress, and she wore a gentle, elegant, and well-mannered look.
"Palace Master Xiao, I've already told you this much, so please return the auction item." The woman spoke leisurely. She wasn't too fast or too slow, but she seemed to have given an order that couldn't be disobeyed.
Xiao Yao responded calmly, and he wore a faint smile as he said, "Fairy Ling, you must be joking. We didn't get the Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid, and even if we did, we wouldn't hand it over to your Tianya Auction House! Aren't you afraid of disgracing your Tianya Auction House by coming here and asking for an auction item? "
Fairy Ling didn't get angry, and she replied calmly, "This item appeared in my Auction House first, so it should be under the Tianya Auction House's jurisdiction. Is there a problem with that?"
Xiao Yao wasn't aware of this matter, and he furrowed his brows as he said, "I don't know why your Tianya Auction House's auction item left your place, but it really isn't in my Red Blood Palace's Auction House."
After they chatted for a while and ascertained that the Red Blood Palace's Auction House didn't get the Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid, Fairy Ling furrowed her brows and thought to herself, Did Sha 'er's maid lie? Or did the old man she mentioned not come to the Red Blood Palace's Auction House, but went to another auction house?
At this moment, the captain of the guards entered and transmitted a message to Palace Master Xiao, "Palace Master, the appraiser Elder Sun and Elder Yu are here to meet you."
Xiao Yao's gaze flickered as he asked, "They should have seen that I'm meeting a distinguished guest, yet they still want to meet me. What's the matter?"
Xiao Yao knew his subordinates well, and he knew that they wouldn't be so blind.
The captain of the guards replied, "They said that it's an urgent matter, and they must report it to you."
An urgent matter? Xiao Yao nodded slightly. "Fine, bring them to the side chamber. I'll be there shortly …"
"Palace Master Xiao, if you have anything to say, you can say it here." Fairy Ling's pretty eyes flickered. It seemed like the two appraisers had an urgent matter to discuss with Palace Master Xiao.
Xiao Yao replied calmly, "It's our Red Blood Palace's Auction House's internal affairs, so it isn't your place to meddle in them."
Upon hearing this, Fairy Ling pursed her lips and chuckled. "I don't care about the Red Blood Palace's Auction House's internal affairs. I'm just concerned about whether my Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid has fallen into the hands of the Red Blood Palace's Auction House. If the two appraisers aren't talking about the Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid, I'll withdraw myself."
Xiao Yao furrowed his brows slightly, and he was bewildered. This woman had unexpectedly come to him just for the Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid!
"Fine, let them come in." Xiao Yao waved his hand.
After a short while, the two of them entered.
Old Sun and Old Yu looked at Fairy Ling in shock. Is she the Tianya Auction House's Master? They didn't expect her to be a woman!
"What do you want?" Xiao Yao asked.
The two of them exchanged a glance, then Old Sun looked at Fairy Ling hesitantly. He then said carefully, "Palace Master, we just received two auction items. Palace Master, please take a look at them."
Xiao Yao was surprised, and his gaze flickered. "What are they?"
"The Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid," Old Sun enunciated each word clearly.
Swoosh!
When he just finished speaking, two pairs of gazes pierced through his body.
He saw that Xiao Yao and Fairy Ling were both staring at Old Sun with sharp gazes.
Fairy Ling's eyes curved slightly, and she revealed a faint smile. "It seems like the Red Blood Palace's Auction House really took our Tianya Auction House's item."
Xiao Yao was shocked, and his eyes flickered. He still couldn't understand what the Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid was, and why the Tianya Auction House's Master had come here personally to ask for it.
"The Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid? What is it? Tell me in detail. "Xiao Yao glanced at Fairy Ling out of the corner of his eyes.
Old Sun told them everything in detail.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yao's pupils contracted, and shock appeared in his eyes. An ancient elixir that could improve one's soul power really shocked him.
He finally understood why Fairy Ling had come here personally.
If he could get this elixir recipe and find the person who could refine it, he would have an unparalleled path to wealth!
This was an extinct elixir, and it was an ancient elixir recipe that could improve one's soul power crazily. If it was in the hands of a faction, how much wealth would they get?
Even if it was sold for a sky-high price, there would still be people who would fight over it crazily.
At this moment, even Xiao Yao was tempted, but he restrained himself and asked, "Tell me the details. Why did this item appear in our auction house?"
The two old men were confused, but they still replied in a matter-of-fact manner, "An outer sanctum disciple called Su Yuxian brought it here for sale. Palace Master, is there a problem with this person?"
A thoughtful look appeared on Palace Master Xiao Yao's face, and he couldn't help but look at Fairy Ling. "Fairy Ling, can you tell me how the Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid was lost from your Tianya Auction House?"
An unnatural look appeared on Fairy Ling's face for a moment, but she quickly calmed down and said, "Actually, it's nothing. My subordinate was careless and neglected that customer, which caused him to leave …"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yao was both annoyed and amused. "It turns out that your Tianya Auction House's appraiser is incompetent and made a mistake! Fairy Ling, it's really funny that you came here to ask for it! "
If this item had been stolen from the Tianya Auction House and sent to the Red Blood Palace's Auction House, he would have returned it.
However, that person had made a mistake and missed out on such a treasure, yet he still had the cheek to come here and ask for it!
Xiao Yao couldn't possibly agree to it.
First, if he agreed to it, it would be tantamount to bowing down to the Tianya Auction House, and it would be too cowardly. That person had come here to bully them, and they wanted to snatch the Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid by force.
Moreover, the Red Blood Palace's Auction House was now facing the Central Prefecture's factions, and it was time for them to look for treasures to contend against them. The Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid was the key, so how could they give it up?
As Xiao Yao thought this, he felt quite carefree.
The Tianya Auction House had gathered the best appraisers in Tianya City, and it was only the goods that they looked down upon in the past that would be chosen by their auction house.
He didn't expect that they would also make a mistake, and it was even an extinct ancient elixir!
If news of this spread, they would surely become a laughing stock!
Palace Master Xiao, who had been suppressed for a long time, felt quite proud and elated.
Fairy Ling said calmly, "So you're saying that Palace Master Xiao won't return?"
Xiao Yao chuckled and said, "If Fairy Ling really wants it, it's not impossible."
Fairy Ling's eyes lit up. "Palace Master Xiao, please state it. If you need any compensation, I can consider it."
She implied that she would consider giving the Red Blood Palace's Auction House some compensation.
"Fairy Ling, you must be joking. We're from the same city, so I must give you face." Xiao Yao shook his head. "You don't need any compensation."
Fairy Ling pursed her lips and revealed a faint smile. "Thank you, Palace Master Xiao."
Palace Master Xiao chuckled as he took out a black card from his bosom and slapped it on the table. "Fairy Ling, as long as you hold this VIP card, you will be able to bid for the Heart Refining Mortal Dust Liquid at the auction in three days!"
