Meng Qi only felt the man's cold gaze sweep across her face.
"Ha —" The man seemed to chuckle.
His laughter was the same as his gaze, proud and cold, like the white snow on a high mountain, without any warmth, only looking down on the world.
Before she could react, the white-robed man quickly turned his head.
He took another step and stepped into the courtyard that was still some distance away.
His figure completely disappeared, disappearing without a trace.
"Little Qi?" Xue Jinwen waved at her. "Why are you in a daze?"
Meng Qi suddenly came back to her senses.
White robe, black hair, a handsome side profile, and a small white jade crown that tied up his hair.
If she wasn't mistaken, that person wasn't …
"Dazed?" Xue Jinwen chuckled, seemingly not surprised at all. "That was Su Junmo just now. Many female cultivators who see him for the first time have the same expression."
"Su Junmo?"
Meng Qi walked to Xue Jinwen's side and softly repeated these words.
She wasn't surprised by the man's appearance, but she didn't expect to see Su Junmo in the Heavens Beyond Heaven.
"He's quite famous in the Heavens Beyond Heaven," Xue Jinwen said as she continued to lead Meng Qi to the courtyard.
The gate of the courtyard looked no different from her residence.
As soon as she stepped in, Meng Qi understood what it meant by 'one step leads to heaven and earth'.
As soon as they entered, they found themselves in a room that wasn't too big.
There were only three walls in the room, and there was only a hollowed-out screen on the other side.
Looking through the hollowed-out patterns on the screen, they could see an open high platform in front of them.
The high platform should be built with a huge piece of bluestone surrounded by green mountains.
Many similar rooms could be faintly seen on the mountain walls.
But it was unknown whether there was anyone inside.
When Meng Qi looked up, he could only see a cloud shrouded in mist.
Xue Jinwen guessed her thoughts and said, "There are some invited guests with different identities above."
"Okay." Meng Qi nodded.
"Xuan Auction House. There are a total of 999 rooms of different sizes on the surrounding mountain walls."
She sat down on a chair in the room. "We're already the smallest. The higher they went, the bigger the rooms became. Once we reach the peak of the mountain, we will be able to see the complete courtyard. "
Xue Jinwen said, "Once the auction starts, you can directly bid using your nameplate. The auctioneer would constantly update the latest and highest prices. Throughout the auction, other than the staff here, no one would know who had bought the item. Of course … "
She raised the corner of her lips and tidied up a strand of hair on her temples with a faint smile. "There are also people who are willing to directly bid. The cultivators who can enter here are not nameless in the three thousand worlds. They are easily recognized. "
Meng Qi nodded as if he understood.
She was extremely talented in medical skills, but she was relatively ignorant in other matters.
She could faintly feel that what Xue Jinwen said just now was not as simple as introducing the auction rules.
But she could not say where the problem was.
"Sit," Xue Jinwen said as she picked up the teapot on the table and poured a cup of tea for Meng Qi.
The fragrance of the tea rose. She also looked up at a higher place hidden by the clouds.
"When the auction starts, you will understand what I mean," she said.
"Right." Xue Jinwen looked at Meng Qi who sat down next to her. "Your North Deep Dan will be the first item to appear."
"En." Meng Qi nodded.
Xue Jinwen had just told her.
It was almost nine now. Meng Qi looked at the screen in front of her.
She couldn't even hear the movements in the room next to them. She didn't know how many people had arrived in this vast auction house.

Also, that Su Junmo just now … …
Meng Qi's eyelids drooped slightly, her long eyelashes covering the light in her eyes.
She knew this person.
In the past, Lu Qing Ran had a mysterious but powerful suitor.
He was handsome and peerless. His face was naturally stunning.
The other party was extremely generous.
At that time, Lu Qing Ran was already a third-grade medical cultivator. A large number of medicinal materials needed for refining medicine were provided by that man.
The other party's casual and unrestrained movements were different from the other male cultivators that Lu Qing Ran knew.
At that time, who was she with … …
Meng Qi's eyes wandered. Her Senior Sister had too many men under her skirt. She couldn't remember which male cultivator Lu Qing Ran was with at that time.
But after this mysterious suitor appeared, Lu Qing Ran soon couldn't resist his powerful attack.
When Meng Qi went out to pick herbs on a moonlit night, she saw her Senior Sister and the other party walking under the moon in the wind. It was romantic and sweet.
That mysterious and powerful suitor was Su Junmo.
Later, by chance, Meng Qi found out that he was a demon cultivator.
And he was the Sky Demon aristocrat that demon cultivators talked about.
Her original form was a pure white fox with five tails. She was very beautiful.
Even though she was seriously injured and lying on the ground, her soft white fur was stained with blood. It didn't seem to affect the beauty of the fox at all.
Hmm … …
Meng Qi tilted her head slightly, her eyes wandering.
But the feeling of touching her was still not as good as Little Qi's.
Moreover, an adult fox was already a big fox with five tails. It was far less cute than Little Qi.
She was very beautiful, but she was a little less cute.
"Little Qi?"
"Huh?" Meng Qi came back to her senses.
She remembered that Su Junmo should appear two or three years later.
At that time, she was already at the peak of the Foundation Establishment realm. Her medical skills were already on the verge of third-grade perfection.
She didn't expect to see him so long in advance because of Heavens Beyond.
Meng Qi narrowed her eyes.
"The auction is about to begin," Xue Jinwen reminded Meng Qi.
"Okay." Meng Qi nodded.
She collected her thoughts and stopped thinking about Su Junmo.
At the same time, on the peak of Green Mountain around the Xuan auction house.
Surrounded by clouds and fog, a huge courtyard occupied a large part of the mountain wall.
This was already the highest point of the auction house. There were only two courtyards in total.
It was different from the room where Meng Qi and Xue Jinwen were.
Not only was this courtyard much more spacious, but it also had its own garden.
There was even a small lake in the garden. From time to time, colorful koi fish would jump out of the water.
There were many exotic flowers and herbs planted in the garden. A faint fragrance of plants and trees filled the air.
Just this fragrance alone was enough to make people feel refreshed and comfortable.
Su Junmo stood tall and respectfully waited outside the door.
The coldness and pride that Meng Qi saw just now had long disappeared from his unusually handsome face.
"My Lord." He opened his mouth. His clear voice trembled slightly, as if he couldn't believe it. "Since you left, everyone has been looking for you everywhere. The disputes in the clan have restarted. In nine years, it will be the day of the Demon Lord's reselection. Many idiots think that this is an opportunity and are already trying to rope in various forces. They are ready to make a move … "
"I know." A lazy and indifferent man's voice interrupted Su Junmo. "Let them fight."
Footsteps sounded in the room. A man in a white robe slowly walked out.
Su Junmo didn't dare to raise his head. He looked at the ground and stood respectfully beside the man.
He had followed this man for a long time and could understand some of his habits.
He knew that the more lazy and indifferent the man looked, the more angry he was.
"The clan …"
"The auction is about to begin." The man in the white robe raised his hand and interrupted Su Junmo.
"Yes." Su Junmo felt a little strange, but he still kept his mouth shut.
The Xuan auction was only held three times a month. The rare treasures were limited. He didn't know why the master had come.
He had also received the summons and hurried over.
Otherwise, a Xuan auction like this wouldn't be worth Su Junmo's time.
"Which auction item does the master need?" Su Junmo asked respectfully.
The list of auction items flashed through his mind. There didn't seem to be anything particularly outstanding.
The most outstanding item was probably the first auction item. It was said to be a second-grade Darknorth Pill.
Su Junmo was a little surprised when he saw the list of auction items.
Not to mention the Xuan auction house, the Realm Beyond Heaven hadn't sold second-grade pills for many years.
The man in the white robe didn't say anything. A strange light flashed through his eyes.
He raised his long eyebrows.
Su Junmo's question seemed to have reminded him of something. A faint smile flashed through his starry eyes.
The lazy expression on his face disappeared and the corners of his lips curled up slightly.
In terms of looks, Su Junmo could be said to be incomparably handsome.
He was even more handsome than the Young Palace Master of the Burning Sky Palace.
But in front of the man in the white robe, he seemed a little dull.
Moreover, the other party was …
The man in the white robe waved his sleeve, and the clouds in front of him slowly dispersed.
A middle-aged cultivator was already standing in the center of the large bluestone platform.
The auction was about to begin. Meng Qi's attention was also focused on the middle-aged cultivator on the bluestone.
She looked calm, as if she didn't feel nervous at all.
On the contrary, Xue Jinwen looked at the middle-aged male cultivator in charge of the auction, and then looked at Meng Qi.
"Little Qi." She called the name left on Meng Qi's nameplate. "Are you nervous?"
"I'm fine." Meng Qi shook his head.
She looked up again.
She felt strange. According to Xue Jinwen, the cultivators participating in the auction shouldn't be able to see each other if they were willing.
But she felt as if someone was looking at her.
Moreover, that gaze came from above, carrying a hint of playfulness and inquisitiveness.
Was it an illusion?
Meng Qi slowly retracted his gaze.
"Sister Xue." Meng Qi turned his head and asked Xue Jinwen, "Should Fellow Daoist Su Junmo be up there?"
"Yes." Xue Jinwen nodded. "Su Junmo is very famous in Heavens Beyond Heaven."
She said, "Although he's very young, he's already a cultivator at the first level of the Spirit Severing stage."
Meng Qi nodded.
She glanced at Xue Jinwen, feeling a little strange.
It wasn't strange for her to know that Su Junmo was a Spirit Severing stage cultivator. Meng Qi had even seen Su Junmo's five tails.
But …
Didn't Xue Jinwen know that Su Junmo was a white fox and a demon cultivator?
"He once held a banquet in Heavens Beyond Heaven. That day, a strange fragrance assailed the nostrils of everyone in Heavens Beyond City, and their spiritual senses were tempered. Until now, no one knows what kind of treasure was used for the main dish that day. "Xue Jinwen added.
Even Third Miss Xue, who came from a large sect in the Western Land, blushed at the mention of Xue Jinwen, and her eyes shone brightly.
But who would have thought that this extremely handsome Heavenly Demon aristocrat would have a soft spot for Senior Sister Lu Qing Ran?
The daughter of the Heavenly Dao, she really lived up to her reputation.
"There are also people who say …" Xue Jinwen lowered her voice. "He knows the owner of this place."
"Oh?" Meng Qi raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"But these are all rumors, and no one knows the truth." Xue Jinwen smiled and tidied her hair again. "There have always been many legends about the owner of this place, and we've all become numb to hearing them."
As soon as she finished speaking, a clear voice sounded.
The middle-aged male cultivator standing on the large bluestone high platform whistled softly. "The auction begins."
