It was nighttime.
Qin Shujian was resting in his room.
Originally, he had intended to stay at an inn, but Lin Wanyou had strongly invited him, so he decided to stay at the Cheng Yun Trading Company.
Knock!
"The door is not locked. Please come in!"
Clang!
The door opened, and Lin Wanyou walked in.
Looking at Qin Shujian, who was meditating cross-legged, he could not help but praise him. "Sect Master Qin is so hardworking. It's no wonder that you are a top-notch expert of the True Dominion at such a young age.
You are so talented and hardworking. You make me blush with shame! "
"But I have nothing to do. Even if I don't cultivate, I have nothing else to do."
Qin Shujian shook his head in response to Lin Wanyou's words.
While they were talking …
He had finished his cross-legged state and sat down at the round table in the room. Then, he poured two cups of tea and said, "Chief Steward, please!"
"Thank you!"
Lin Wanyou thanked him first. Then, he looked at Qin Shujian and said with a smile, "Sect Master Qin, you haven't walked around Bi Feng City much, right?"
"I saw some when I entered the city."
"It's rare for Sect Master Qin to come here tonight. Why don't we go out for a walk? I'll bring Sect Master Qin to see what Bi Feng City looks like tonight."
At this point …
Lin Wanyou's eyebrows twitched. Then, he smiled ambiguously and said, "Bi Feng City's pink brothels are famous. Anyone who comes here will definitely experience it."
Looking at his expression …
Combining his words …
Qin Shujian was a little confused. However, he instinctively felt that things were not simple.
Pink brothels?
After muttering this word a few times in his heart, he suddenly understood. When he looked at Lin Wanyou's expression again, he felt strange no matter how he looked at it.
I treat you as a friend.
You actually want to bring me …
"Cough, cough." After coughing twice, Qin Shujian shook his head and rejected him. "I feel that my cultivation technique has reached a bottleneck. I'm prepared to cultivate properly. I'm afraid I can't accompany you. We'll talk about it again in the future."
He did not seem to be lying.
Lin Wanyou also looked a little regretful, but he couldn't force it. He immediately got up and said, "Everything should be focused on cultivation. Since Sect Master Qin is about to make a breakthrough, I won't disturb you anymore."
"Take care, Chief Steward."
"Goodbye."
After walking out of the room, Lin Wanyou looked at the closed door and shook his head, intending to leave.
However, after walking for a short while, he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
"If I remember correctly, Master Qin should be at the tenth level of the Martial Realm!"
The tenth level of the Martial Realm!
Above that was the Spirit Martial Realm.
However, the shackles of the True Dominion still existed. How could he break through without heading to the Spirit Dominion?
Then, he thought of the other party's words and expression.
He had a rough understanding of the situation.
"I didn't expect that a top-notch expert of the True Dominion would still be a virgin."
Lin Wanyou shook his head and laughed, but he couldn't turn around and expose anything.
Some people like women.
Some people, however, loved to cultivate.
As for the true experts, most of them were the latter.
Thinking about it this way, it wasn't completely incomprehensible for the other party to have achieved so much.
On the other side …
After Lin Wanyou left, Qin Shujian immediately started cultivating.
The next morning …
Due to the auction, Lin Wanyou had to preside over some matters. Therefore, he asked the attendant to knock on the door and remind Qin Shujian to prepare to attend the auction.
After a simple freshening up …
Qin Shujian followed the attendant and walked around before arriving at the shop that he had entered the day before.
Then …
He walked up the stairs to the third level and entered a room.
The room wasn't big, but one could see what was outside through the window screen.
Looking down through the window screen, one could see a few rows of seats below and an auction stage in front of them. At the moment, someone was already standing on the stage.
The attendant beside him said, "Sect Master Qin, this is the auction venue. When the auction starts later, different treasures will be auctioned off. If you have an item that you like, you can bid directly.
If you don't have enough cash, the Chief Steward has instructed that you can make up for it after the auction. "
"Thank you."
"Also, the window screen can only be seen from the inside. It can't be seen from the outside. I'll wait outside the door. If Sect Master Qin needs anything, please let me know!"
After the attendant finished speaking, he respectfully left the room and closed the door.
At this moment …
Qin Shujian retracted his gaze and looked around the room carefully. Although the room wasn't big, the decorations were extremely exquisite. There were fruits and snacks on the table and …
Smelling the fragrance of the tea, he could basically conclude that it was spirit tea.
Regarding this …
Qin Shujian was quite satisfied.
Disregarding everything else, the Cheng Transport Company had done a good job in terms of etiquette.
Even the attendants and servants …
It was hard to find any fault with the etiquette.
Sitting down …
While drinking the spirit tea, he looked down at the auction venue through the window screen.
At this moment, people had arrived one after another. The few rows of seats were no longer empty. Then, Qin Shujian's ears twitched slightly. He heard a slight sound from the side.
It could be inferred that someone else had entered the other rooms.
From the attendant's words and the size of the auction venue, there shouldn't be too many rooms. They should only be reserved for those who could afford the price or had a distinguished status.
For the latter …
Qin Shujian, on the other hand, agreed more.
After all, he was the Sect Master of Yuan Sect. Those third-rate sects couldn't compare to him.
"I'm very honored that everyone can attend the auction of the Cheng Transport Company today. I won't say much. I'm sure everyone is waiting anxiously. Now, the auction officially begins!"
Below, a slightly hunchbacked old man in brocade clothes stepped forward. His voice was as loud as a bell.
As the other party's words fell.
Two beautiful women in light muslin clothes worked together to carry a long brocade box up.
With the appearance of the two women, the atmosphere in the auction venue seemed to warm up.
"Level 10 Basic Martial Realm and Level 4 True Martial Realm?"
Qin Shujian scanned with his Spiritual Eye. He had already seen the attributes of the other party.
The auctioneer was Yue Shihong. He was at Level 4 True Martial Realm and had just reached the Inner Invulnerability Realm. As for the two beautiful women, they were also at Level 10 Basic Martial Realm.
Just from these two points, it could be seen that the strength of this branch was quite strong.
At this moment …
Yue Shihong had already opened the brocade box, revealing a silver long spear. He immediately said in a deep voice, "The Tongxuan Ice Breaking Spear is a weapon made of top quality materials and forged by skilled craftsmen. It's a second-grade refined weapon. The starting price is thirty thousand taels of silver. Each increment must be no less than one thousand taels of silver!"
As soon as he finished speaking …
Someone immediately shouted a price.
"Thirty-one thousand taels of silver!"
"Thirty-two thousand taels of silver!"
"…"
"Forty-one thousand taels of silver!"
In a short time, the price directly soared from thirty thousand taels of silver to forty-one thousand taels of silver. And it showed no signs of stopping as people continued to bid.
In the room, Qin Shujian sipped his spirit tea, ignoring the intense emotions of the crowd below.
To put it bluntly …
A second-grade refined weapon spear was simply not enough to enter his eyes.
Even for Yuan Zong …
There were many weapons of this level.
Rather than spending money to buy it, it was better to go to other sects when he was free.
Qin Shujian immediately suppressed the thought that popped up in his mind. This was an auction, and everyone was competing with money. It was not the time to compete with their fists.
Soon …
The Tongxuan Ice Breaking Spear was bought by one person at the price of seventy-three thousand taels of silver.
For this price …
Qin Shujian also thought it was reasonable.
After all, the price of a second-grade refined weapon was around fifty thousand taels of silver. The Tongxuan Ice Breaking Spear was obviously stronger than the average second-grade refined weapon and could be regarded as a fine product. Although seventy thousand taels of silver was a little premium, the difference was not big.
When an item was sold …
Soon, the bidding for the second item began.
Next …
Qin Shujian was in a state of watching the show. He did not participate in the bidding for any item.
It was not because he had no money.
It was simply because the items being auctioned were not good enough for him.
However, Qin Shujian also noticed something.
That was, until now, the people who were bidding were the people below. No one in the surrounding rooms made a sound.
"Come in!"
Qin Shujian shouted.
The attendant waiting outside immediately pushed the door open and asked respectfully, "Sect Master Qin, what are your orders?"
"I would like to ask, how many items are there in this auction?"
"There are a total of fifty-three items in this auction."
"Fifty-three items?"
"But if Sect Master Qin wants to know the specific items, you can only look at the illustrated handbook on the table. I have no right to know!" The attendant replied respectfully.
Illustrated handbook?
Qin Shujian's gaze stopped on the table for a while before he finally saw a small booklet on the side.
"Then there is nothing else."
"Then I will go out first."
The attendant did not say anything more and left respectfully again, closing the door behind him.
Subsequently …
Qin Shujian picked up the booklet on the table with an embarrassed look on his face.
He miscalculated!
Just now, his attention was on the auction and the items on the table were attracted by the spirit tea. He actually neglected this booklet.
Opening the first page of the booklet.
What came into view was the newly auctioned Mystic Ice Breaking Spear.
There was a detailed introduction of this weapon, as well as the starting price.
After glancing at it briefly.
Qin Shujian continued to flip through the booklet.
As for the auction going on below, he temporarily ignored it.
When he was seriously flipping through the booklet.
He found that the items auctioned this time were not simple. At the beginning, the Mystic Ice Breaking Spear was the worst. Later, there were even first-grade Refined Weapons and low-grade spiritual weapons.
"Low-grade spiritual weapon!?"
Seeing this, Qin Shujian was slightly stunned.
After reading the introduction of the item, he found that this was different from the low-grade spiritual weapon he imagined.
It was different from the spiritual weapon that the sect suppressed and finally entered the spiritual weapon grade.
The low-grade spiritual weapon in the booklet was man-made.
Although its power was not much worse than the spiritual weapon that suppressed the luck, there was still a big difference in essence.
The former could only kill the enemy.
The latter could improve the sect's luck.
In terms of preciousness.
Naturally, the latter was several times better than the former.
