In the northern city regions of Lifire City, after Qin Wentian returned from the Lifire Palace, he gave out the rewards. There were 3,000 governors and each of them had great harvests, causing them to sigh in admiration. Although they had suffered a lot during these years, it was all worth it. The governor was truly generous. In the future, who would still dare to say that their northern governor's manor was the poorest?
Because of the commotion earlier, news of this insignificant matter circulated, causing many people to sigh in admiration. Seems like Qin Wentian's harvests this time around were very great. If not, how could he be so generous? However, this was also within expectations. He collected all the tributes from the past fifty years in one go, in addition to the additional tributes paid by some major powers to Qin Wentian, how terrifying was his harvest exactly?
After that, the governor's manor officially started to recruit people, including vice governors and attendants. The governor's manor was going to undergo a large-scale expansion. With the foundation from before, it was unknown how many experts entered the governor's manor. Right now, the northern governor's manor was different from before. Before this, it was purely because they were bullied. But after that battle, all the major powers in the northern city regions no longer dared to be disrespectful to the governor's manor.
Naturally, there were still many people who had misgivings in their hearts. The Jialan Clan was still around. As long as the Jialan Clan was there, the governor's manor wouldn't have an easy time. They didn't know when a conflict would erupt.
In addition, after arriving at the governor's manor, some immortal emperors heard that if they wanted to become vice governors or attendants, they actually had to pass the Evil Emperor's test. The test was to be controlled by the Evil Emperor before he would question them. Although it was under the witness of everyone, there were still many arrogant people who rejected and chose to leave the governor's manor.
After a period of recruitment, the governor's manor expanded to a total of 5,000 people. There were five vice governors and fifty attendants.
The vice governors were all mid-stage immortal emperors and the attendants were all initial-stage immortal emperors. Such a lineup was similar to the other governor's manors in the other regions.
The northern governor's manor now had over ten immortal emperors. In this case, they wouldn't be inferior when facing those first-tier powers.
Several days later, a shocking piece of news circulated around the northern city regions. The pavilion lord of the Emperor Pavilion in the central city regions, Grandmaster Di, came to pay a visit to the northern governor's manor. When this news circulated out, many people paid close attention to this visit. After that, there was another rumor that before this, Grandmaster Di had also paid a visit to the eastern governor's manor, Lin Ba, the southern governor's manor, Beauty Xiao, and the western governor's manor, Yin Qiu. The northern governor's manor was the last place Grandmaster Di visited.
Out of the five governors, only Grandmaster Di didn't pay a visit to the central governor's manor where the Emperor Pavilion was located. Many people couldn't help but to talk about the scandal that happened tens of years ago in the central governor's manor. Most probably, at that time, Grandmaster Di was already on bad terms with Governor Xia Hou.
Since Grandmaster Di has already paid a visit to the various governor's manors, there shouldn't be much for him to pay a visit this time around.
However, just when everyone was indifferent, a shocking piece of news suddenly circulated out from the governor's manor.
Governor Qin Wentian has already handed the Ancient River Auction House to Grandmaster Di to manage. After some time, Grandmaster Di would bring people over from the Emperor Pavilion in the central city regions to reopen the Ancient River Auction House and hold a grand opening ceremony. Also, on the day of the opening, Grandmaster Di would personally take out the treasures he forged to be auctioned.
Naturally, as an exchange, Grandmaster Di also paid a sufficient amount of emperor-ranked stones and gifted several peak-stage emperor-ranked weapons to Governor Qin Wentian.
When this news circulated out, the northern city regions were in an uproar. Countless people were shocked.
Although the Ancient River Auction House was sealed, the transaction pavilions outside were still there. Although they lost some popularity during these days, because of the commotion caused by that incident, the fame of the Ancient River Auction House grew even higher compared to the past. If it was really sealed, the popularity of the auction house would naturally fade away and people would gradually forget about it.
However, someone was coming to take over. Also, it was the Emperor Pavilion, an extremely famous Emperor Pavilion in the central city regions. In fact, even in Lifire City.
One could already predict that when Grandmaster Di brought people over to reopen the Ancient River Auction House, not only would the popularity of the Ancient River Auction House not decrease, it would grow even more prosperous.
At the same time, the governor's manor released another piece of news. Governor Qin Wentian wanted two protectors to assist him. As long as they signed a contract for a hundred years, other than the remuneration from the Lifire Palace, Qin Wentian would also take out a peak-stage emperor-ranked weapon from Grandmaster Di for them to use. This news instantly attracted the attention of many peak-stage immortal emperors.
What level of strength did Qin Wentian have? He killed over ten immortal emperors in a single battle, including several peak-stage ones. He also had the assistance of the Evil Emperor, a peak-stage demon emperor. Now that he wanted protectors and not vice governors, there was basically no need to say anything. Everyone understood that Qin Wentian wanted a peak-stage immortal emperor. If not, why would he need protectors? If it was a mid-stage immortal emperor, he would have five vice governors under him.
…
On the day the Ancient River Auction House reopened, naturally, it couldn't be called the Ancient River Auction House anymore. Since Grandmaster Di already became the new owner, the name was naturally changed to the Emperor Pavilion. Right now, the signboard of the Ancient River Auction House was changed to the Emperor Pavilion.
Today, the Emperor Pavilion held a grand ceremony. The Emperor Pavilion Lord Di Tian, the grand supervisor Mo Fei and the young miss of the Mo Clan, Mo Junyi, were all here to personally host the opening ceremony. Naturally, there were also many guests, including the Mo Clan that specialized in formations. The Mo Clan's clan leader personally came here.
As the Emperor Pavilion grew stronger and stronger, the Mo Clan Leader felt that his decision back then was correct. In the future, Grandmaster Di's accomplishments would surely be extremely high.
Just right now, Grandmaster Di's proficiency in weaponsmithing had already caused many peak-stage immortal emperors to sigh in admiration.
Everything in the auction house was ready-made. The items left behind by the Ancient River Auction House could be directly used by the Emperor Pavilion. There was an incomparably gigantic auction house, tens of thousands of spectator stands, as well as a three-story VIP lounge, as well as an auction stage at the center of the circular auction house. It could be lifted up from below, directly sending people up to the auction stage. The design was extremely ingenious, even the Emperor Pavilion in the central city regions couldn't be compared to this.
Today, the auction house was naturally filled to the brim. Even the corridors were filled with people and there was a sea of people outside. Even if they couldn't enter, they still wanted to join in the liveliness outside. They wanted to see what treasures the Emperor Pavilion would bring out this time around. This also directly caused the trading market outside the auction house to become even more lively compared to the Ancient River Auction House back then.
This involuntarily caused people to sigh. The Ancient River Auction House had become someone else's wedding dress. Naturally, this was also because of the fame of the Emperor Pavilion. If it was another major power, they might not be able to witness such a scene.
As expected, Grandmaster Di didn't disappoint. The divine weapons he personally forged were all peak-stage emperor-ranked weapons, and they were all the best among the best. Many people competed for them, and it was extremely lively. In the end, all of them were sold at sky-high prices. Other than this, the other items auctioned off were all extremely rare treasures, causing people to be filled with excitement. During the entire auction, everyone was in high spirits, silently sighing at the Emperor Pavilion's reputation.
After this auction, the fame of the Emperor Pavilion instantly expanded in the northern city regions. The Emperor Pavilion that came from the central city regions, as well as Grandmaster Di, truly lived up to his name. Those who were fortunate enough to participate in this auction were all filled with excitement, praising the Emperor Pavilion unceasingly.
And this time around, in the backyard of the Ancient River Auction House, there were still many people here to pay their respects. Other than the Mo Clan and a few other major powers, the other experts were all from the major powers in the central city regions.
After the banquet was set up, Di Tian sat at the host's seat. Although he was wearing a mask, he still exuded a sense of mystery. He lifted his wine cup and smiled at everyone, "Many thanks for everyone coming to support me. I, Di, thank everyone for your kindness. In the future, when I open my Emperor Pavilion in the northern city regions, I hope that everyone can take good care of me."
"That's only natural. All of us here are first-tier powers of the northern city regions. We are all operating in the northern city regions, we naturally have to take care of each other and even form an alliance. Only then would we not be bullied by others." An expert laughed, his words causing a strange light to flash in Di Tian's eyes. "Being bullied by others is too serious. Everyone, as a first-tier power of the northern city regions, who would dare to bully all of you?"
"Haha, Grandmaster Di can't even guess this?" That person laughed, revealing a meaningful smile to Di Tian. "This Ancient River Auction House was once a first-tier power as well."
The eyes under Di Tian's mask froze as a sharp glint of light flickered within. The Ancient River Auction House?
The spearhead of this spear was pointed directly at the governor's manor, at Qin Wentian. When he thought of this, Di Tian couldn't help but feel a little funny. Most probably, even in his dreams, the person who spoke would never imagine that the person he was referring to was actually sitting right in front of him.
"I heard that the Ancient River Auction House refused to pay any tributes and openly went against the governor's manor. Because of this, the governor's manor sealed the Ancient River Auction House. Could it be that there's a hidden story that I don't know about?" Di Tian pretended not to know as he asked in bewilderment.
"Haha, Grandmaster Di, to tell you the truth, the northern city regions are a little more complicated. If the governor's manor has the ability to protect us, it's only natural for us to pay tributes. But in the past tens of years, the governor's manor didn't care about external affairs. Just a single time they acted, they directly annihilated several major powers, including a first-tier power. After that, they collected the tributes from everyone in the northern city regions. How can this be considered as working for the northern city regions? They are clearly using force to coerce us." That person shook his head and sighed.
"Ai, the governor's manor is already so domineering and tyrannical. Without the lips, the teeth would be interdependent. All of us feel extremely uneasy in our hearts." Another person spoke. Di Tian glanced at the people here and his heart was like a mirror. So it turned out that the drunkard had an ulterior motive. These people weren't here to pay a visit to congratulate him.
"Back then when I went to the governor's manor, I asked Governor Qin to let me manage the Ancient River Auction House. Governor Qin didn't make things difficult for me?" Di Tian pretended to be shocked as he spoke, waiting for these people to reveal their trump cards. What did they want exactly?
"The governor's manor has just finished reorganizing, they naturally wouldn't be in a hurry to act. Right now, they are still developing their own power. During these days, the governor's manor has been expanding unceasingly. I wonder what will happen in the future." That person continued, "Grandmaster Di, although we temporarily don't know what the future will be like, we have to be prepared for danger in times of peace."
