Zhuo Yun's eyes landed on the item that Huo Yao was pointing at. He quickly explained. "Yeah. It's said that this medicine can bring the dead back to life... Uh huh. It can probably bring a dying person back to life."
Huo Yao's lips twitched when she noticed Zhuo Yun's emotional tone. She said, "We are living in the modern world. How can you believe such nonsense?"
"It's not a matter of whether I believe it or not. This medicine has an extraordinary background," said Zhuo Yun mysteriously.
"What background?" Huo Yao put down the item and picked up her teacup. Her interest was piqued.
Zhuo Yun raised his head and glanced at the auction stage on the first floor through the curtain before he said, "Miss Huo, you are a physician too. Have you heard of the Shangguan clan?"
Huo Yao had just taken a sip of tea. Before she could swallow it, she nearly choked on Zhuo Yun's words. "Ahem..."
Zhuo Yun reached out to pat Huo Yao on the back when the door to the private room opened. Zhuo Yun instinctively raised his head. When he saw Min Yu walking in, he quickly withdrew his hand and placed it behind his back.
His desire to live was extremely strong.
Min Yu glanced at him calmly before he walked over to the chair beside Huo Yao and sat down. "What are you guys talking about? Why are you so excited?"
Huo Yao composed herself and said, "We are talking about the finale item of the auction."
Min Yu raised his brow and said, "Are you interested in the medicine?"
"... a little." Huo Yao coughed before she turned to look at Zhuo Yun. "What did you say about the Shangguan clan?"
Zhuo Yun glanced at Min Yu cautiously. When he saw that there was no change in Min Yu's expression, he hurriedly continued.
"It's a very mysterious family of highly skilled physicians. Rumor has it that they have incredible medical skills and there is no illness they cannot cure. It is even rumored that they have the ability to live forever."
Apart from having incredible medical skills that could save a dying person, having the ability to live forever would definitely shock the entire world.
Since ancient times, countless people had pursued immortality, especially powerful rulers. Every single one of them wanted this ability.
After Huo Yao heard Zhuo Yun's words, she repeated the same question. "You believe it too?"
Zhuo Yun shook his head at first, then nodded. "We can't trust him completely."
Although it sounded ridiculous for Longevity to say something like that, it had always been a rumor. It was not necessarily groundless. Thus, it was better to believe it.
Huo Yao turned to look at Min Yu. Before she could say anything, he spoke first. "It's unlikely."
Otherwise, the world would have long been in chaos.
"It's not impossible. It's just nonsense." Huo Yao shrugged her shoulders mockingly.
Because of this groundless rumor, the Shangguan Clan was forced to live in seclusion. Even though they had lived in seclusion for over a hundred years, they were still unable to escape the shackles of this rumor.
Once human greed was aroused, there was no bottom line.
Min Yu glanced at Huo Yao. He sensed something different about her. There was an inexplicable sadness in her.
Huo Yao's emotions disappeared as quickly as they came. She quickly said, "So the final item is from the Shangguan clan?"
"Yes." Min Yu nodded.
At this time, the auction downstairs had already begun, and the voice of the host could clearly be heard in each box.
