"I guess I won't go? The auction process is long and smelly. I don't have the energy to endure it. Why don't I go back to the villa to sleep, and you two continue? "
The two women didn't insist this time. One had to know that the auction in the cultivation world was a tug-of-war. There were a lot of goods, and the bidding was long. It was normal for a few days. This guy had a fire under his butt. He couldn't sit still!
"You're not allowed to bring women to the villa! Also, you're not allowed to go to the brothels! "Yin Ya warned.
Lou Xiaoyi sighed. "I've sharpened my sword for ten years, but I haven't tried it yet. Today, I'll show you. Who can solve my problem?"
The two women waited for Lou Xiaoyi to leave. They looked at each other and smiled. Xia Bingji sighed.
"Aya! Don't play with fire! This person's past is very complicated. I have a feeling that he won't be controlled by any woman. So, it's better not to work on this! "
Yin Ya smiled. "I know! But don't you think it's interesting to travel with him? With him around, we have another layer of protection! I've always been curious. Where did he learn such earth-shattering swordsmanship? It's definitely not from Carefree Travel, and it's unlikely that it's from his original sect. Or did he have some other fortuitous encounter? "
Auctions were not rare in the trading system of the Immortal Zhou Upper Realm. This was a relatively fair method that could maximize the profits of the merchants, so it was very favored by the merchants. However, the prerequisite was that one had to have enough strength to gather enough precious goods. If one used ordinary goods to make up the numbers, one would sooner or later ruin one's reputation. The customers were not fools.
The qualifications to participate in the auction were very simple. As long as you were rich enough, this was not a problem for them. For the inner sect disciples, the way they obtained resources was not something that cultivators from unorthodox sects could compare to. Especially for them who had extraordinary backgrounds, good masters, and powerful families.
For cultivators like them, the level of cultivation they could reach was no longer limited by resources. Instead, it was something else that was closer to the essence of cultivation.
The next day, following the flow of people, the two women arrived at the bottom of an unfamiliar hill. There was a high platform built at the bottom of the hill, and a strict Forbidden Space Array was set up within a radius of several miles. There were also experts from the Chamber of Commerce patrolling the area. This was the auction venue.
It was not the traditional underground auction that people imagined. Instead, it was an open and honest business. This was the style of Red Hill. Even if many of the items were obtained through illegal means, the items sold here were from illegal means.
There were many guests and quite a number of cultivators from the Nine Upper Sects. Although the Upper Sects did not lack resources, what they lacked was surprises and surprises. Among the Upper Sects' disciples, there were many who did not walk the usual path. It was human nature to find treasures.
Red Hill gathered all sorts of strange creatures from most of the Zhou Xian Upper Realm. Here, there were many more surprises than in other places.
The two women finally covered their faces with veils. Otherwise, with their conditions, they would have attracted a lot of bidding as soon as they stepped onto the high platform.
When the number of guests exceeded two hundred, the auction began. From now on, only exits were allowed, and no entry was allowed. This was for the safety of the guests.
The first auction item was already very shocking. It was an adult Cloud Piercing Flood Dragon, a species whose bloodline was very similar to the Immemorial Sacred Beast, the Dragon. It was a demonic beast that could both fight and fly. It was also very rare in the Immortal of Zhou Upper Realm and could only be found by chance.
This was one of the sales strategies of the organizers. They had to have a shocking beginning and a climax ending. In the middle, there were all sorts of rare treasures. The premise was that the atmosphere of the auction could not be cold. They had to keep the guests in a state of excitement. Only then would they have the desire to buy.
This kind of ferocious beast was not the target of the two women. To control it, one needed to have a strong beast taming ability and a long time of coexisting with it. It was not something that people would buy for fun. However, in the auction, there were many who were familiar with beast taming. Most of the people who could come to the Red Hill Basin had the intention to do so.
This was a very good start. After more than a hundred rounds of bidding, the price of the Sky Piercing Flood Dragon had already been pushed to an unreasonably high price. No one knew how much of this was secretly pushed by the merchants, but those who could stay until the end were the true nouveau riche.
In the end, it was impossible to tell who obtained the treasure from the auction. The guests all used their divine sense to control the bidding. After the auction ended, they would hand over the item and take it away. The advantage of this was that they could effectively guard against any possible evil intentions. Red Hill was a chaotic place. All kinds of demons and ghosts gathered there. Everyone did not follow the rules, so there had to be a necessary procedure.
A young cultivator wearing a feathered robe and a tall hat floated in front of the two women. He had a smile on his face. "Sister Bing, Sister Ya, it has been thirty years since we last met. Your elegance is even greater than before. I miss you so much!"
The two women took a look and saw that it was someone they knew. It turned out to be Daoist Tong Guang from the Qingwei Immortal Sect. Thirty years ago, he had followed his elders to the Yellow Court Continent. He met the two women at the Yellow Court Mountain and was shocked. At that time, he pursued them, but unfortunately, he did not succeed.
This person could be considered an elite disciple of the Qingwei Immortal Sect. His family was very powerful. Back then, Master Yin used some unknown method to make this person leave. He must have been very unwilling.
The Qingwei Immortal Sect and the Huangting Daoism had a very ordinary relationship in the Zhou Xian Upper Realm. Because their orthodoxies were similar, they rejected each other. The two women did not dislike Tong Guang, but they also did not approve of him. Back then, they were just acquaintances. Now that they had met in Red Hill, it could be considered fate.
"Senior Brother Tong Guang also came to Red Hill? What a coincidence. I think you must have obtained something at the auction! "Xia Bingji said politely.
Tong Guang smiled. "I don't really need anything. I came here for the Jiao-Dragon just now. Now that I've obtained it, I'll just watch the show in the future. I wonder what the two Junior Sisters have taken a fancy to? Do you need my help? "
Xia Bingji smiled faintly. "Congratulations on getting what you wanted, Senior Brother. We don't have any special goals. It's all up to fate."
Tong Guang smiled and asked, "Junior Sisters, is this your first time in Red Hill? Do you have any companions? If not, I'm very familiar with Red Hill. I can guide you. I guarantee that I'll be more responsible than those brokers outside! "
Yin Ya rejected politely. "Yes, there are still a few Senior Brothers outside. They don't like auctions and have no interest in spirit beasts. So we'll do things separately. When this is over, I'll introduce you to them. There might be some acquaintances among them!"
Tong Guang laughed dryly. "We'll talk about it when the time comes. Don't tell me it's your Senior Brother Yin? I have bad eyes with him. It's better if we don't meet! "
The three of them chatted casually and appraised the items. Time passed slowly. There were surprises and ordinary items, but the atmosphere was very lively. It was reaching a climax.
The host cultivator stood on the high platform with a smile on his face. "The next batch of goods is not in the list. However, it's something that many friends are interested in. The quantity is limited. First come, first served. First come, first served.
Below the stage, a platform rose up from the array. There were ten women on it, all of them at the Foundation Establishment realm. Their clothes were thin and revealing. Under the cover of the array, they couldn't see what was below the stage. They didn't know that there were hundreds of pairs of eyes looking at them. They were at a loss and didn't know where they were …
This was the most famous slave trade in Red Hill, and it was also the most infamous.
