He also understood that the moment they walked out of the auction house would be the moment of trouble.
However, he quickly calmed down. There was clearly something fishy about this. Since the Celestial Court had planned this, they must have a backup plan. They wouldn't throw out a hundred thousand Transcendence Bows just to let others kill them. Since they weren't the target, then it must be the people who broke through the Transcendence Bows.
But he couldn't understand why the Celestial Court didn't send a few experts to do this instead of people with their cultivation. Especially since they sent Zhan Ruyi of the Ying Family to handle this. Whether in terms of ability or other aspects, Zhan Ruyi wasn't suited for this. What was the meaning of this?
Even Yan Xiu transmitted his voice to him, "Master, could this be a trap set by the Celestial Court?"
Miao Yi sighed, "Whether it's a trap or not, we will be in trouble once the auction ends. I just don't know how much preparation the Celestial Court has made. Otherwise, we will definitely be killed."
In the Starry Hall, Lord Qing walked through the endless shelves of ancient scrolls. Beside him, Gao Guan put away the Star Bell and reported, "Your Majesty, it's time for the hundred thousand Transcendence Bows to be auctioned."
The hundred thousand Transcendence Bows appearing in the auction house was indeed a trap. After a thorough investigation by the Right Division in the phantom market, they discovered that there were quite a few people who coveted the nine million Transcendence Bows. The forces behind each of them were faintly discernible.
The Transcendence Bows were the weapon that the Celestial Court used to control the world! Lord Qing was furious. What did they all want this equipment for? Were they all trying to rebel?
This had already crossed his bottom line. Lord Qing ordered the Right Division to investigate and see how many people from the Celestial Court were involved.
However, Gao Guan said that there were too many people involved. This wasn't a long-term solution. What if the Transcendence Bows didn't show up?
Lord Qing asked him what plan he had.
Gao Guan suggested using the Transcendence Bows as bait to set up a trap to lure the snake out of its hole. Then, they would capture all of them in one fell swoop and interrogate them slowly. Even if they couldn't capture all of them in one fell swoop, they had to make others hesitate. This would make others think twice before thinking about the Transcendence Bows. They were worried that it might be another trap set by the Celestial Court. This was to buy time for the Celestial Court to retrieve the nine million Transcendence Bows.
Most importantly, it was very likely that the remaining evil of the Six Paths would be lured out. Perhaps he could even capture all of the remaining troops of the Six Realms of Samsara who were outside of hell!
What a brilliant plan! The Green Lord had approved it, and so this trap had appeared.
At this time, Qing Zhu took out an ancient scroll and opened it in his hand. He slowly said, "You must keep in contact with the Imperial Guards. We cannot let anything happen to Zhan Ruyi. "
Gao Guan said, "The Left and Right Wardens have already sent out six Grand Governors. There should be no problems."
Qing Zhu: "Make sure to keep things a secret before you act. This Emperor is looking forward to you fishing out the remnants of the Samsara."
Gao Guan: "The number of people who know about this plan can be counted on one hand. Only Zhan Ruyi knows about it, even Niu Youde doesn't know about it. I'm just a little worried about Zhan Ruyi. I wonder if he'll leak the secret to the Ying family? "
Qing Zhu chuckled and said, "This is the reason why We asked Niu Youde to accompany her. That lass has high aspirations, and with Niu Youde around, she will definitely fight for her pride. Even if she leaks it to the Ying family, it doesn't matter … "He stopped here and only glanced at Gao Guan with a faint smile. There was a hint of a 'you're waiting to watch a good show' expression.
Gao Guan was startled. It was a little strange. Why did the Green Lord allow Zhan Ruyi to be in the limelight if he knew that there was a possibility that Zhan Ruyi would leak the secret?
It's just that the Green Lord seemed to be deliberately concealing it, so he didn't ask anymore …
In the middle floor of the Trust and Justice Pavilion, there was a tightly closed door. An old man in a green robe quickly walked to the door and urgently knocked on it.
"Come in." A deep voice came from inside the room.
Inside the spacious room, the furnishings were low-key yet luxurious. A burly man in grey robes was sitting cross-legged on the couch. His face was rough and slightly weathered. He slowly opened his eyes and looked at the old man in blue robes who pushed the door open and entered. He frowned slightly and said, "Old Seven, what's so urgent?"
He was none other than the owner of the Xin Yi Pavilion, Cao Man. He was also the one who controlled the Ghost City from behind the scenes.
"Owner …" The old man in blue robes quickly walked to his side and told him about the appearance of the broken magic bows in the auction house.
Cao Man was shocked when he heard the news. He put down his feet and walked around in a circle while muttering to himself. He asked, "What's the background of the person who did it?"
The old servant in blue robes said, "I don't know yet. I've already ordered people to investigate. Miss Feng Chi is stalling for time. She signaled this old servant to come and ask if we want to swallow this batch of broken magic bows! "
Cao Man shouted without hesitation, "Why should we swallow something of unknown origin? Anyone can touch this batch of things, but we can't. Doesn't your Heavenly Court know our background? Besides, a hundred thousand fifth grade broken magic bows are of no use to us. If we want to swallow them, we should swallow those nine million. Tell Feng Chi not to have any ideas. Auction as usual! "
"Yes!" The old servant in blue robes quickly left.
Meanwhile, in the auction house, the female abbot on the stage had already received the broken magic bow from Zhan Ruyi. She nocked three Meteor Arrows and invoked her arts to slowly draw the bowstring. The broken magic bow instantly glowed brightly, and the bowstring was slowly drawn to a full moon, ready to be fired at the ceiling.
Everyone waited expectantly. Unexpectedly, the female abbot only pulled the bowstring to test it out. She immediately released her transcendence energy and slowly retracted the bowstring. She nodded, indicating that it was indeed the broken magic bow. Then, she placed the items on the tray of the woman beside her and gestured for Zhan Ruyi to go back first.
After Zhan Ruyi got off the stage, she walked back to her seat under everyone's gaze and sat down. From the corner of her eyes, she could feel Miao Yi and the others staring at her. She was a little excited. She didn't expect the higher-ups to entrust such an important task to her. When she thought about Niu Youde's dumbfounded expression after she made such a huge contribution, she felt a surge of joy in her heart. Promotion was inevitable after making such a contribution. Even if she married him in the future, her status would be higher than his. She might even become his superior. Who said that men were superior to women? In the future, she would properly settle the score with him for that woman from the brothel!
Kang Daoping, who was sitting beside her, had a bitter expression on his face. Before coming here, Zhan Ruyi had already confiscated his Star Bell. At first, he didn't know what was going on, but it was too late now. He didn't expect this Young Miss to cause such a huge ruckus. She took away his Star Bell. She didn't want him to contact the Zhan Clan!
"Young Miss, the Ying Clan might have heard about this in the phantom market …" Kang Daoping couldn't help but secretly warn her through voice transmission.
Zhan Ruyi ignored him. She wasn't an idiot. How could she let this matter implicate the Ying Clan? The reason she confiscated Kang Daoping's Star Bell was to separate the Ying Clan from the Zhan Clan. Otherwise, if only her own clan remained unscathed, she doubted that Kang Daoping would be able to withstand the investigation from the higher-ups. There were some things that couldn't be made known to outsiders. Naturally, she would inform her clan in secret.
Miao Yi finally couldn't hold back his anger any longer. "Zhan Ruyi, do you know the consequences of doing this?"
Zhan Ruyi said, "Immediately contact your men and send them here."
Miao Yi was furious. "We still don't know what kind of people will come looking for us later. Are you sure they can stop them?"
Zhan Ruyi said, "I didn't ask them to stop us. I asked them to disguise themselves and help us escape."
Miao Yi understood now. So this was the reason why all the free men had been gathered here.
After the female host on the stage made some preparations, she officially announced, "The last round of the finale auction, 100,000 fifth-grade broken magic bows. The base price is 20 trillion red crystals, and the bidding price is 10 billion red crystals. Those who are interested, please show your cards." She shook the rope, and with a clang, the finale auction officially began.
Many people in the audience gasped. It really was one hundred thousand Transcendence Piercing Bows!
Someone immediately raised his card, and the bell rang out to raise the bid.
Miao Yi looked around, then asked Zhan Ruyi through voice transmission, "What if these one hundred thousand Transcendence Piercing Bows fall into someone else's hands?"
Zhan Ruyi replied calmly, "Don't worry. They won't be able to take them away. Hurry up and settle your matters. Don't make it so that we can't escape later."
'Looks like they came prepared!' On the other hand, Miao Yi's heart tensed up. He could already sense the constant fluctuations of transcendence energy in the hall. Someone was clearly trying to contact the outside world urgently. He suddenly remembered something. Yun Zhiqiu said that the Six Paths' men were definitely in the phantom market as well. If the Six Paths wanted the Transcendence Piercing Bows, how could they miss this opportunity?
Purgatory, Boundless Star, on the edge of a cliff outside the Boundless Palace. Jin Man was dressed in a long, golden dress. She stood at the edge of the cliff, gazing at the boundless ocean.
Ao Tie and Gongsun Lidao stood behind her, both holding the Star Bell in their hands. No one knew where they were contacting. Ao Tie quickly turned around and reported to Jin Man, "General, it's true. It's a hundred thousand Broken Magic Bows. It's very likely that White Phoenix made a move."
Jin Man turned around and said, "Inform our brothers in the phantom market immediately. We must find out who White Phoenix is."
Gongsun Lidao suddenly grabbed the star bell and said, "General, the other five families are saying that we're not the only ones coveting these items. We don't know how many others will be involved. They're afraid that our brothers will be unable to handle the situation on their own. At the same time, to prevent the Dragon King's Temple from being destroyed, they suggest that the six families work together and split the items evenly."
Jin Man said decisively, "Tell them that we can!"
At that moment, she was also taken aback. She took out the star bell she was using to contact Miao Yi, not knowing why he was suddenly contacting her.
However, when she did, her expression changed drastically and she almost broke out in a cold sweat. She stomped her foot and said, "Damn it! How could I forget that White Phoenix isn't the only one with the Transcendence Piercing Bows! Hurry up and inform our men to stop. This is a trap set by the Celestial Court! "
The two generals were shocked. "Why do you say that?"
Jin Man raised the star bell in her hand and said anxiously, "The Holy Lord is in the auction house. He's a participant in this. The Celestial Court is the one who auctioned off the one hundred thousand Transcendence Piercing Bows. The Holy Lord is worried that we'll be involved! Quick, tell the other five families to retreat as well. "
Ao Tie and Gongsun Lidao quickly contacted the other five families.
