142: Chapter 142 Going to the Auction 142: Chapter 142 Going to the Auction “The Ten Thousand Treasures Auction?” Huang Xiaolong was stunned.
This Ten Thousand Treasures Auction was hosted by Ten Thousand Treasures Comrce, one of the three major chambers of comrce in the Broken Blade Empire.
With over a thousand kingdoms under the empire’s control, Ten Thousand Treasures Comrce had more than two thousand branches established in each major city and key towns of the kingdoms under the empire.
Lutong Royal City also had a branch of Ten Thousand Treasures Comrce.
The Nine Tripods Chamber of Comrce, founded by Huang Xiaolong, although now one of the largest chambers of comrce in the Luotong Kingdom, paled in comparison to Ten Thousand Treasures Comrce—it was like comparing earth to heaven.
Huang Min said, “Big brother, you might not be aware, but at this Ten Thousand Treasures Auction, I heard that besides auctioning Earth-grade High-level Techniques and other treasures, they’ll also auction a Heaven and Earth Spiritual Object, the Earth Core Lotion!”
“What?
Earth Core Lotion!” Huang Xiaolong was greatly surprised.
Deep beneath the vast earth, under certain conditions and after countless years, a miraculous spiritual object could be born—Earth Core Lotion.
This treasure, ford by accumulating various spiritual energies of the earth over nurous years, had imnse benefits for those who cultivate their Fighting Energy when consud.
Besides extending one’s life, the Earth Core Lotion could also greatly enhance one’s Combat Energy Cultivation.
And extending one’s lifespan with it wasn’t as simple as taking other Spiritual dicines for a similar effect.
“Yes, Earth Core Lotion.
They say that at this auction in our Lutong Royal City, even so forces from the neighboring countries have rushed over!” Huang Min added.
Huang Xiaolong’s eyes sparkled.
Earth Core Lotion!
Originally, he wasn’t sure he could reach the Late Stage Tenth Rank Peak before the end-of-year grade competition, but if he could purchase this Earth Core Lotion and cultivate with it, then he was confident he could break through to the Late Stage Tenth Rank Peak before the competition!
Seeing Huang Xiaolong’s expression, Huang Min knew her big brother was tempted.
“Big brother, the auction starts in two hours, shall we head over now?” Huang Min spoke up.
“Good, let’s go now!” Huang Xiaolong nodded.
Originally, he wasn’t interested in any sort of auctions, but he was determined to acquire the Earth Core Lotion at this Ten Thousand Treasures Auction!
Seeing Huang Xiaolong agree, Huang Min’s face lit up with happiness.
She cheered, then pulled Huang Xiaolong out of the Heavenly Mystical Mansion.
As they left the Heavenly Mystical Mansion, they encountered Marshal Haotian and Fei Hou.
“Young Master, are you going to the Ten Thousand Treasures Auction?!” Both were surprised when they heard Huang Xiaolong was attending the auction.
“Young Master, are you planning to purchase the Earth Core Lotion?” Fei Hou guessed, asking.
The publicity of this Ten Thousand Treasures Auction was quite grand, and both Marshal Haotian and Fei Hou had naturally heard about the Earth Core Lotion being auctioned off.
Huang Xiaolong nodded, “That’s right.” There was no point in hiding it from them.
“Do you have any matters?” Huang Xiaolong saw their expressions, and then asked, as it looked like they had sothing to report to him.
“We ca over to report to the Young Master that Yu Chen from the Great Sword Sect has arrived in Lutong Royal City, and in addition to Yu Chen, King Ning has also co,” Marshal Haotian said respectfully.
“Oh, Yu Chen, King Ning!” Huang Xiaolong’s eyes flashed.
He hadn’t expected the two of them to co to Lutong Royal City.
If they had co to Lutong Royal City at this ti, it probably ant they were here for the Ten Thousand Treasures Auction!
“Escaping in Great Chao County and now daring to co to Lutong Royal City!” Huang Xiaolong said coldly with a laugh.
Turning to Marshal Haotian and Fei Hou, he said, “Let’s go.
You two co with to the Ten Thousand Treasures Auction!”
“Yes, Young Master!” Both responded respectfully.
Huang Xiaolong, taking his sister Huang Min, along with Hao Tian and Fei Hou, made their way to the Ten Thousand Treasures Auction.
There were still two hours to go before the Ten Thousand Treasures Auction began, and Huang Xiaolong was in no hurry, walking at a leisurely pace.
“Big brother, Yu Chen, those two old n from the King Ning have co this ti; we can’t let them get away!” Huang Min clenched her fists along the way, her face filled with hatred as she spoke.
Over the years, the Great Sword Sect and Ningwu Family had continued to send assassins after the Huang Family mbers.
There were a few occasions where Huang Min had nearly been injured, so naturally, she harbored deep resentnt towards the two.
Watching his sister flailing her fists, Huang Xiaolong couldn’t help but smile, “When we encounter those two old n at the auction, you should go up and beat them down yourself!”
Huang Min appeared startled upon hearing this, then she pouted and said, “Big brother, you know I can’t beat those two old n!”
Huang Xiaolong chuckled.
Hao Tian and Fei Hou also smiled at the exchange.
As they neared the Ten Thousand Treasures Auction, Huang Xiaolong noticed that the streets were bustling with more people, all dressed in various garnts, seemingly all converging towards Lutong Royal City for the auction.
One hour later, Huang Xiaolong and his party arrived at the Ten Thousand Treasures Auction.
The location of the Ten Thousand Treasures Auction was set in the busiest part of Lutong Royal City, which was already bustling with activity, and now it was so crowded that it was nearly impossible to move through.
When Huang Xiaolong and the others arrived, it was a sea of people; looking ahead, there was a vast expanse of heads.
Ahead, the crowd was so dense it was difficult to proceed.
Seeing this, Fei Hou stepped forward to make a way for Huang Xiaolong.
Wherever Fei Hou went, a powerful stream of air ford, prompting the crowd in front to automatically part and create a narrow path.
Shortly after, Huang Xiaolong and the others reached the grand entrance of the Ten Thousand Treasures Auction.
The Steward of the Ten Thousand Treasures Comrce standing guard at the grand entrance was startled to see Marshal Haotian behind Huang Xiaolong.
He quickly plastered a smile on his face, hurried over, and respectfully escorted Huang Xiaolong, Marshal Haotian, and the others through the VIP entrance.
Witnessing this, the various factions queuing behind whispered in astonishnt.
“Who is that kid?
Even the Steward of the Ten Thousand Treasures Comrce personally greeted him?!”
“You don’t know who he is?
He’s Huang Xiaolong, the most monstrous talent with incomparable gift from Luotong Kingdom!
The one behind him is Marshal Haotian, second only to the King, above thousands in Luotong Kingdom!”
“What?
He’s Huang Xiaolong!
I heard that even Yang An from the Outer Kingdom was defeated by him a year ago!”
The crowd buzzed with excitent.
However, within the crowd, there was a young man in a black brocade robe, whose face was filled with hatred as he watched Huang Xiaolong enter the VIP entrance of the Ten Thousand Treasures Auction, looking as though he wished to cut Huang Xiaolong into pieces.
“Young Master, you’re not yet a match for Huang Xiaolong; you must endure and bide your ti!” At that mont, an elder behind the young man in the black brocade robe stepped forward and whispered.
“Rest assured, Uncle Liu, I understand; I won’t act rashly.
One day, I will destroy the Heavenly Mystical Mansion of the Huang Family and avenge my father!” the young man in the black brocade robe gritted his teeth and said coldly.
After the Steward of the Ten Thousand Treasures Comrce escorted Huang Xiaolong, Marshal Haotian, and the others through the VIP passage, he personally arranged a VIP room for them.
Once the Steward had settled them in, he told Huang Xiaolong and Marshal Haotian that if they needed anything, they should just command the disciples outside from the auction house.
After the Steward left the room, Huang Xiaolong turned his gaze towards the auction floor below and suddenly saw a familiar figure.
