"Deacon Zi Xin is too polite." Ma Xiuxiu smiled faintly and did not explain anything to Shen Luo and the others.
"Miss Xiu, what do you want to buy at this auction?" Deacon Zi Xin led the three of them inside and asked.
"I don't intend to buy anything. I came to this auction because these two friends want to buy a few things. I'm just accompanying them." Ma Xiuxiu said.
"I see. May I know your names and what do you want to buy? I can arrange it for the two of you in advance. " Deacon Zi Xin heard this and was a little moved. She looked at Shen Luo and Xie Yuxin and asked habitually.
"The two of us are just two rogue cultivators. There's no need to say our names. We're here today to buy some cultivation supplies. We don't dare to trouble you." How could Shen Luo reveal his true identity to this person?
Deacon Zi Xin saw this and did not ask any more questions. She led Shen Luo and Xie Yuxin forward and soon came to a venue.
The space of this venue was very large. It was almost comparable to some small squares. There were hundreds of rows of seats.
At the front of the venue, there were dozens of red square tables. There were many spiritual fruits, tea and other things on them. There were a few mahogany chairs around each table. It was obviously for the guests to sit. It was different from the crowded seats at the back.
"Three distinguished guests, please sit here. The closer you are to the auction stage, the clearer you can see." Deacon Zi Xin led the three of them to a square table and sat down. Not far ahead was the auction stage.
She briefly introduced the process of the auction to the three of them and gave each of them a jade plate with a number written on it. Soon, she left to greet other guests.
Shen Luo looked at the jade plate in his hand. It had the number 309 written on it. With a little mana, it would emit light.
"I didn't expect a rogue cultivator like me to be able to sit in the VIP seats. This is all thanks to Miss Ma." Xie Yuxin's eyes flashed as he looked at Ma Xiuxiu and smiled meaningfully.
She had stayed in Chang 'an much longer than Shen Luo, so she understood the significance of the VIP seats in the Xuanyuan Pavilion Auction.
"Sister Xie, you flatter me. It's just that my family's elder has been promoted in the Jubao Pavilion. My fellow Daoists in Chang 'an City are giving me some face because of my elder. I wonder what Sister Xie wants to buy today? "Ma Xiuxiu smiled and changed the topic.
The two women seemed to hit it off quite well, and soon started chatting with each other, leaving Shen Luo hanging at the side.
Shen Luo didn't pay much attention to it. He turned his head and looked around.
At this time, there was still some time before the auction began, and the seats in the hall were not full yet. Only about half of the people had arrived.
These people were dressed differently, but most of them looked excited. Obviously, they were looking forward to the Xuanyuan Pavilion's auction.
Shen Luo drew back his gaze and casually asked, "I just heard that people from the Life Transformation Temple, Mount Potala, and the Great Tang government will all be participating in this auction?"
"Yes. Sleeping Moon Householder of the Life Transformation Temple and Fairy Qinghua of Mount Potala are in Chang 'an City at this moment. That is Sleeping Moon Householder, and the one beside him is General Jin Kui of the Great Tang government. "Ma Xiuxiu raised her chin slightly and gestured in the direction of a red wood square table in the distance.
Shen Luo and Xie Yuxin looked in the direction she was pointing at. Sitting behind the red wood square table was a man in a white robe. He looked to be about 40 years old, with ordinary facial features. He held a white paper fan in his hand and looked quite elegant. He was Sleeping Moon Householder, whom Ma Xiuxiu had mentioned.
Behind him stood a handsome young man in a white robe, who seemed to be Sleeping Moon Householder's disciple.
Sitting behind another table next to Sleeping Moon Householder was a golden-haired man, who was wearing a set of heavy armor and looked as stable as a mountain of gold.
General Jin Kui came alone, without any attendants.
Shen Luo slightly narrowed his eyes. He felt that Sleeping Moon Householder and General Jin Kui's Dharma Power were restrained, and their eyes were flashing with a layer of fluorescence. This phenomenon was caused when the Spiritual Power had reached a certain level.
The cultivation of these two people had at least reached the Out-of-Body Stage.
Shen Luo looked at them for a moment and quickly withdrew his gaze, so as not to be noticed by the two people.
"The Xuanyuan Pavilion also sent an invitation to Goddess Qinghua of Mount Putuo. If there is no accident, she should also attend." Ma Xiuxiu continued.
Shen Luo heard this and his face sank.
Five hundred Immortal Jades were barely enough for a cluster of Human Grade Spiritual Fire. However, the more experts there were, the greater the probability of variables in the bidding.
"As far as I know, these three seniors don't practice fire attribute cultivation methods, nor are they proficient in alchemy or refining. The possibility of them participating in the bidding for the Spiritual Fire is not high." Ma Xiuxiu seemed to have seen through Shen Luo's thoughts and said intentionally or unintentionally.
"I hope so." Shen Luo sighed secretly.
"Young Master Shen, how is your study of the Memory Charm?" Ma Xiuxiu hesitated for a moment and asked.
Shen Luo touched his nose and said, "I'm still in the process of comprehending it. I don't have any clues for the time being."
"It's okay, I was a little impatient." Ma Xiuxiu's eyes flashed with a trace of disappointment, but she immediately recovered her calmness and smiled.
"Miss Ma, don't worry, I will do my best." Shen Luo said.
At this moment, there was a commotion at the entrance of the venue. It was two women and a man who walked in accompanied by two Xuanyuan Pavilion deacons.
The person in front was a middle-aged beautiful woman dressed in green. Her appearance was quite beautiful, but her body exuded a bone-piercing cold Qi and she looked very arrogant.
Behind the beautiful woman in green were a man and a woman. The man was handsome and the woman was beautiful, like a golden boy and jade girl.
Shen Luo's expression changed slightly. This man and woman were none other than the two disciples of Mount Putuo that he had met in the market square of Wan Qiu City.
"Goddess Qinghua is here." Ma Xiuxiu's voice came from the side.
Shen Luo's mind raced. He immediately lowered his head and rubbed his hands on his face a few times.
When he put down his hands, his appearance had changed. He had become a young man with a square face and thin eyes.
The technique he used was Xie Yuxin's Bone Shaping Disguise Technique. This technique was extremely exquisite for changing one's appearance. He had wanted to learn it as soon as he saw it that day.
During this time, Shen Luo had finally exchanged the method of making the Divine Armored Horse Talisman from Xie Yuxin.
This Bone Shaping Disguise Technique was quite similar to the Yellow Court Scripture. He had the experience of cultivating the Yellow Court Scripture in the dream world, so he easily mastered this secret technique. Moreover, he used it more exquisitely than Xie Yuxin.
The bones in his body crackled. He became a little shorter, but his body width increased. He had completely become a different person.
"Young Master Shen, you …" Ma Xiuxiu was surprised.
"A little disguise trick. To tell you the truth, I have some grievances with those two disciples of Mount Putuo. If they recognize me, it will be a little troublesome." Shen Luo said honestly. He glanced at the two people. Seeing that they did not notice him, he was secretly relieved.
