Cloud Leaf City’s City Lord, Wang Xingluo, was first taken aback, then his pupils suddenly contracted as if he had heard sothing terrifying!
At this mont, this City Lord of the Innate Realm, felt his lips trembling.
"Elder Tian, you... what did you just say?!"
"You heard correctly." Tian Qing’s expression was serious as he said, "City Lord Wang, with your status, you wouldn’t be unaware of the spectacle that occurred on the Yunlan River a few months ago."
"Hiss..."
Wang Xingluo involuntarily took a sharp breath.
Given Tian Qing’s status, if he wanted to resolve the matter of the rogues being killed, he only needed to say a word to him, and Wang Xingluo would definitely give Tian Qing this face.
Therefore, Tian Qing had no need to fabricate such a story that those two rogues had sohow provoked the mysterious expert who had broken the river with a single move months ago.
Moreover, with Tian Qing’s status, it’s ninety-nine percent unlikely he would lie about such a strange event, aning it’s... true!
In an instant, Wang Xingluo suddenly understood why Tian Qing said it was for the benefit of the people... it truly was!
From another perspective, these scoundrels indeed deserved to die, oppressing n and won, committing all sorts of evil.
Although they dared not provoke higher-ranking Martial Arts Cultivators, commoners suffered greatly at their hands.
Wang Xingluo realized that his thinking had been unturned, but once he thought differently, he imdiately understood.
At this mont, on the auction stage on the first floor, a tall woman in a cheongsam walked up with a full smile.
"I’m very pleased that everyone could co to Bai Chuan Auction House’s monthly auction. I’m the auctioneer for this event, Ruxue. I understand you’ve all been waiting, so without further ado, let’s bring up the first auction item..."
In the box, Lu Ye glanced at the first auction item, which turned out to be a Profound Tier Lower Grade long saber. The blade glead with a cold light, clearly not an ordinary item.
For Mortal Tier Magical Artifacts, Lower Grade and Middle Grade exist in large quantities due to the presence of low-tier Artifact Refiners.
The crafting thods are relatively simpler, allowing for mass production, thus keeping prices fairly low.
The Mortal Tier Middle Grade longsword from before, had it not been mixed amongst ordinary weapons by the shopkeeper, looking for soone with fate, its value would far surpass ten taels of silver, at least several hundred taels.
Once it reaches Mortal Tier Upper Grade, the crafting skills beco complex, and even a slightly diocre one would cost several thousand taels of silver, while excellent ones fetch over ten thousand.
As for Profound Tier Lower Grade, they easily sell for between one hundred thousand to one hundred fifty thousand taels of silver.
At this level, even relatively unwealthy Innate Realm cultivators use them.
Imdiately, Lu Ye thought about how Innate Realm cultivators use Profound Tier Lower Grade Magical Artifacts, while his was a Mortal Tier Middle Grade given by Jiang Lingyue...
He shook his head lightly and continued watching the auction calmly, waiting for the mont when the Storage Rings would be presented.
A mont later, the Profound Tier Lower Grade long saber with a starting price of ten thousand taels was indeed auctioned off at twelve thousand taels, claid by a rugged-looking swordsman.
Opening with a high-grade Magical Artifact instantly stirred the enthusiasm of many people, gradually heating up the atmosphere in the venue.
"This auctioneer nad Ruxue is quite sothing, very adept at guiding others’ bidding desires," Lu Ye remarked.
Jiang Lingyue nodded, saying, "She’s not simple. I’ve heard that she has so relationship with the President of Bai Chuan Chamber of Comrce, so despite her beauty and hosting many monthly auctions, few dare to harass her."
Upon hearing this, Lu Ye was sowhat surprised.
Involved with the President of Bai Chuan Chamber of Comrce?
It’s important to know that such a colossal comrce association spanning the Four Realms of Xuanzhou would certainly have a Martial Arts Grandmaster as a top enshrined, to deter those rogue elents attempting to cause trouble at auctions.
Lu Ye speculated that perhaps even at this monthly auction, there might be a Martial Arts Grandmaster enshrined by the chamber, presiding over the event, perhaps.
With such a powerful comrce association, could this Ruxue be the President’s daughter?
As one auction item after another was presented like running water and then auctioned off, soon it was the turn of the three Storage Rings that Lu Ye had contributed.
Standing on stage, Ruxue’s smile felt as warm as a spring breeze.
"Traveling through the Jianghu, besides having a handy Magical Artifact, there’s actually another item that is indispensable to us."
"With it, life becos significantly more convenient. The next auction items are three Storage Rings provided by a mysterious seller, to be auctioned one by one!"
"For those who have always needed a Storage Ring, don’t miss this chance."
Imdiately, a maid held a tray and ascended the platform.
Ruxue took it, unveiling the red cloth above to reveal an exquisite, delicate Storage Ring.
"Storage Ring, starting price of ten thousand taels, each bid must increase by no less than one thousand taels. Now... place your bids!"
At this mont, Jiang Lingyue stood in shock, "Who has that much money, able to auction off three Storage Rings at once?!"
Altogether, the three would approach two million taels, wouldn’t they?
Lu Ye chuckled softly.
anwhile, in the adjacent box, Tian Qing also sat upright, ready to bid if necessary.
Unexpectedly, there was no need for him to bid. Monts later, the first Storage Ring shot up to fifty-seven thousand and was auctioned off.
For the first Storage Ring, many were still observing.
The second Storage Ring was next, and this ti it fetched fifty-nine thousand taels, claid by soone from a newly established Innate Clan in Fuan City.
Seeing this, Tian Qing relaxed. Indeed, the price of Storage Rings, a hard currency in the Martial Arts Cultivation world, didn’t cause any concern; soone would inevitably step up.
"Ladies and gentlen, I’ll take this third Storage Ring."
In the first-floor hall, a voice with a slight chill suddenly spoke, imdiately drawing many gazes.
"These people are... from the Realm of Chaos?"
"Judging by their attire, they do seem to be from the Realm of Chaos, mbers of the Blood Evil Sect."
So who weren’t familiar with the Realm of Chaos quietly asked their companions, "What kind of place is that, acting so overbearingly?"
A companion quietly explained, "That’s the borderland between Northern Territory of Xuanzhou and the Demon Race. Its special position has left it as an ungoverned zone for a long ti."
"Because neither the Demon Race nor the Great Jing wishes to manage such a place, they’ve allowed it to evolve independently."
"Over the past millennium, it has beco a chaotic region where many who have committed cris or been wanted by the Court, or have made enemies, choose to go and join a faction."
"The Blood Evil Sect is one of the four top forces in the Realm of Chaos! It’s rumored that the Blood Evil Sect Leader has broken through to Innate Ninth Layer Perfection and truly entered as a Martial Arts Grandmaster!"
Nearby, all the listening Martial Arts Cultivators turned pale with shock.
That one of the top four forces in the Realm of Chaos was... so formidable!
