So, They Were the Protagonists All Along

While Mu Zhian was still thinking about whether he should leave early, the auction had already officially started.

A plump and charming woman came to the stage. She was wearing a black cheongsam and had a pair of charming eyes. She glanced at the guests around her and smiled as she began her opening remarks.

This feeling is a bit like a modern host... Mu Zhian looked at Feiying in front of the stage on the second floor and couldn't help thinking in his heart.

At the same time, his eyes were also scanning the private seats below the stage, which were almost separated by an empty seat, looking for Ye Lingxuan's figure.

It seems that I should have been stood up... Or is she also in the private room on the second floor? Mu Zhian thought in his heart.

But if she is in the private room, it will be difficult to find her... It is impossible to ask in each private room, right?

Not to mention that this is not very efficient, and the risk is too great.

After all, he just told his senior sister two days ago that he had something to do today. If he ran into her here... it would be embarrassing.

Mu Zhian suddenly asked, "Miss Huang, do you know who are in these private rooms today?"

Huang Manting glanced at him and said lightly, "These things are handled by the servants. I don't pay attention to these things."

Seeing that Mu Zhian suddenly lost interest in her, Huang Manting continued, "But I can ask someone to prepare a list for you, but Mr. Mu must first explain what you want to do."

"I'm looking for someone." Mu Zhian said.

"Who?"

"Miss Huang asked too many questions. Our relationship is not that good yet." Mu Zhian smiled.

Huang Manting said, "In that case, Mr. Mu should think about how to find someone by himself. If you search one private room after another, you will find someone, right? But by then, the auction may be over."

"Miss Huang, help more people in need, and you will feel better." Mu Zhian persuaded with a smile.

Huang Manting raised her eyebrows slightly, sat lazily on the chair, played with a strand of hair, and said lightly: "If it was other friends who asked for help, I would help, but I am not so familiar with Master Mu, right?"

She paused, changed her tone, and swayed her feet in black embroidered shoes, teasing: "Or, if Master Mu kneels down now to clean Manting's toes, it is not impossible to consider it."

The beauty's toes are slightly arched, outlining a nearly perfect arc, matched with the flawless snow-white long legs under the black skirt, a kind of enchanting beauty.

Mu Zhian glanced at her inadvertently, and noticed the playful eyes of this enchantress again, and smiled: "You are anxious."

It is obvious that Huang Manting has been annoyed, and she is completely different from the indifferent demeanor at the beginning.

If it is normal, Huang Manting would never say such words directly in front of outsiders.

While the two were chatting, the goods under the stage had been pushed to the front of the high platform one by one, and they were sold at high prices with Feiying's smiles.

Some goods may not be really worth this price, but with Lan Feiying's blessing, these goods were sold at such a price.

"The goods sold below are also somewhat special. It is said that it is a medicinal material left over from thousands of years ago. Although only a small piece of roots are left now, if we can find the water of reincarnation, we may be able to restore its original medicinal effect."

"Starting price, one hundred spirit stones."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's interest was immediately dull.

There is a default rule in the Dawn Auction House that things that are not valuable or whose prices are unknown will start at one hundred spirit stones.

Many similar things have been auctioned in the past, and most of them are basically waste, which is even worse than garbage.

If the waste that appeared in the auction house every time was some ancient divine object, the monks would have scrambled for it long ago, and would not give the "protagonist" a chance at all.

It is precisely because they have suffered several losses and been fooled countless times in the past that the monks have no interest in these waste products.

One hundred spirit stones are not much, but Mu Zhian does not intend to be fooled.

Let alone whether this thing is true or false, even if it is true, the value of the reincarnation water itself is probably not inferior to the so-called "roots handed down from ancient times".

The reincarnation water is something located in a forbidden area in Dongzhou. Most monks who enter the forbidden area never return.

In the past, there were also people who were very lucky and left the desolate forbidden area alive with the reincarnation water. However, they had just handed the reincarnation water to the auction house for auction, intending to enjoy it in the future, but they died strangely not long after.

There is a curse in the forbidden area. So far, no one has survived the curse after entering the forbidden area.

When the guests participating in the auction heard the three words "reincarnation water", their faces did not change, and they all lost interest in the roots.

Feiying glanced at the audience and was not surprised to see that they were all uninterested.

She smiled charmingly: "Next, count down three times. If no one bids, this item will be sold unsold."

Feiying opened her lips slightly and said: "Three."

"One hundred and ten spirit stones."

A calm voice suddenly came from the audience, and everyone's eyes fell, and their sights soon fell on the young man who spoke.

Ye Yu from the Ye family!

Mu Zhian also looked over.

Is Ye Yu here too... I didn't notice him before.

And looking at the changes in him... He has already reached the Qi training stage?

I'm not sleepy anymore... Mu Zhian is a little interested.

Ye Yu would not auction off this withered root for no reason... It should be the old man in Ye Yu's body who reminded him.

Huang Manting also looked sideways, and her eyes fell on Ye Yu.

Originally, the next plan of the eldest lady of the Huang family was to win over Ye Yu before the sect assessment.

This genius boy of the Ye family was promoted from the refining essence to the training qi realm in just a few months. Such a talent is also worth her winning over.

However, Ye Yu and Mu Zhian have a bad relationship. If Ye Yu is won over, he will gradually drift away from Mu Zhian.

Although it feels a bit masochistic to say this, if it weren't for being played by Mu Zhian two days ago, Huang Manting would have already started the plan to win over Ye Yu.

But because of what happened two days ago, after thinking for a long time, Huang Manting finally chose Mu Zhian.

It's not just because Mu Zhian is smart. Huang Manting likes the pleasure of conquering others. The more Mu Zhian ignores her, the more she wants him.

In the past, there were many men who pretended to be indifferent and wanted to counter-trap, but they fell at Huang Manting's feet after a few moves.

She would hate such a man even if he knelt beside her and licked the tip of her shoes.

What she wanted to see was a servant who was really not interested in her being conquered by her, kneeling at her feet and kissing her jade feet.

The man who had the most beautiful woman in Tianxuan City as his Taoist partner was secretly the servant of the eldest lady of the Huang family, kneeling by the bed every day and trying his best to please her... This feeling, just thinking about it makes people feel wonderful.

Although this task seems a bit difficult at present.

But this is challenging, isn't it?

"Bid me a hundred and twenty spirit stones." Mu Zhian glanced at the maid next to Huang Manting and said.

The maid didn't speak, but subconsciously glanced at Huang Manting.

"Hurry up, what are you still standing there for?" Mu Zhian patted the maid's buttocks.

The maid tentatively glanced at Huang Manting, with an infatuation and respect in her eyes, as if waiting for Huang Manting's answer.

"Mr. Mu has spoken, so why are you still standing there?" Huang Manting replied lazily.

If she refused the other party for such a small matter, Mu Zhian might leave the private room immediately, which would be detrimental to her plan.

At the same time, as Ye Yu's voice fell, many cultivators in the crowd below the stage looked at Ye Yu intentionally or unintentionally, with a bit of sarcasm in their eyes.

Why does this genius boy of the Ye family care so much about this useless waste every day?

Last time it was a bronze piece, and this time it was a withered root.

Ye Yu ignored the gazes of these people, and looked at the woman in front of the high platform calmly, suppressing the heat in his heart.

According to the old man in the body, this root is indeed an ancient medicinal material left over from thousands of years ago, named Longteng Whisk. Although Feiying said that the water of reincarnation is needed to restore the withered Longteng Whisk, it is not true.

People with alchemy talent are born with an affinity for plants. Longteng Whisk can gradually recover as long as it stays on these alchemists, but it may take hundreds or even thousands of years.

But there is another kind of elixir in the world that can accelerate the recovery of Longteng Whisk. In other words, taking away this Longteng Whisk and then refining the corresponding elixir can accelerate the recovery of Longteng Whisk.

These people do not understand the value of this Longteng Whisk.

Ye Yu sneered in his heart, but did not explain.

Why not take Longteng Whisk at the lowest price?

"One hundred and twenty spirit stones." At this time, a crisp female voice suddenly came from a private room.

Ye Yu narrowed his eyes slightly and raised his head slightly to look at the private room on the second floor that offered the price.

Judging from the range of the other party's bid, it should be that he just wants to join in the fun... Ye Yu said in a deep voice: "One hundred and thirty."

"One hundred and forty spirit stones."

The smile on Ye Yu's face froze for a moment, and he realized the tit-for-tat from the owner of the private room.

"Two hundred spirit stones!" Ye Yu said.

"Two hundred and ten." The maid's calm voice came from the private room again.

There was a slight commotion in the crowd again, and people looked at the private room, secretly guessing the identity of the owner of the private room.

Looking at the range of the other party's bid, it is better to say that he is tit-for-tat with Ye Yu than to say that he wants the withered roots.

Ye Yu frowned and shouted again: "Three hundred spirit stones!"

This is the limit of the price he can offer at present. This time he also auctioned some of the pills he refined, but now the pills have not been put on the auction, and he doesn't have so many spirit stones to bid.

Why is there always someone to stop me...Ye Yu's fists clenched quietly, and there was an unknown anger burning in his heart.

The bronze piece was auctioned off by Mu Zhian last time. After he returned, his master told him that the bronze sword that Bai Ruoxi sacrificed on the martial arts arena at that time might have evolved from the bronze piece.

That time had already made Ye Yu resentful. He never thought that he would be forced to such a point.

He knew that the item being auctioned was a good thing and no one else had discovered its value, but Mu Zhian suddenly appeared and confronted him.

If it weren't for Mu Zhian, he should be the one who is invincible among his peers now...

When Ye Yu thought of this, he slowly raised his head and looked at the private room, his eyes flickering slightly: Could it be that it was Mu Zhian again?

Thinking of this, Ye Yu's hatred for Mu Zhian in his heart had reached an uncontrollable level, and his eyes were fixed on the private room.

...

Mu Zhian drank a cup of tea leisurely, and when he heard that no one in the audience continued to bid, he couldn't help but laugh secretly.

He used up nearly half of the 100,000 spirit stones he got from Mr. Huang last time, but he still had 50,000 left, which was a considerable fortune, enough for him to be extravagant for a long time.

He didn't know what the root was for, but if Ye Yu wanted it, he would just fight with him for it.

The Chosen Son is a big fat sheep, and there is still a lot of wool to be pulled from him.

Mu Zhian took the teacup handed by the maid and drank the tea slowly.

At this time, he suddenly heard a clear, sweet and pleasant voice coming from not far away: "One thousand spirit stones."

Mu Zhian subconsciously looked in the direction of the person following the auction.

This voice... is Ye Lingxuan!

Is this to stand up for Ye Yu... Mu Zhian felt a little jealous.

Then, he suddenly thought: If I bid, will she give up the auction?

However, even if he thought about it, Mu Zhian would never bid on his own initiative even if he died.

After all, if he just shouted, his presence in the auction house would be exposed immediately.

"You continue bidding, and keep bidding up no matter what the other party raises." Mu Zhian turned his head and looked at the maid beside him.

After saying that, he put down the teacup, opened the curtain and left the private room.

"One thousand and one hundred spirit stones."

"One thousand and two hundred."

As the maid started bidding again, Ye Lingxuan's voice came from a private room again.

Mu Zhian's eyes narrowed slightly and fell on the private room in the corner, and he said to himself: "Is it over there?"

He immediately quickened his pace and walked towards the private room where the Ye sisters were.

At the same time

Ye Qian, who looked innocent and lovely, was sitting obediently in a spacious and tidy private room. She turned her head to look at the purple-dressed girl beside her and said softly, "Sister, why did you bid for that kind of thing?"

"For Brother Ye Yu?"

Ye Lingxuan glanced at her sister and said, "Brother Ye Yu is a member of the Ye family after all. Although we have had no contact with him in these years, since he wants it, let's bid for it. It's better to give it to relatives around you than to give it to a stranger."

She will leave Tianxuan City soon, and it will be even more impossible for her to have any contact with Ye Yu after that. Just treat it as a parting gift.

Ye Qian was silent.

Then, she muttered again: "I don't know where Brother Mu went. He clearly made an appointment with us."

Ye Lingxuan said, "I have long seen that he is not a good person. How can we expect him to be on time?"

Ye Qian took her sister's arm, glanced at her, and said, "Then why did you dress up so early in the morning?"

Ye Lingxuan smiled lightly: "Qian'er, don't you dress up for such an important occasion?"

As she said, her fingers gently touched Ye Qian's soft and elastic lips, and said, "On the contrary, you always dress simply when you go out, but today you dress more exquisitely than me."

"Could it be...you dressed up specially for Mu Zhian?" Ye Lingxuan smiled with narrowed eyes.

Ye Qian lowered her eyes slightly and said softly, "What are you talking about, sister? My sister and I have the same reason, we just dressed up to attend the auction."

Ye Lingxuan saw Ye Qian's reaction clearly. She picked up the teacup, drank a sip of tea slowly, and continued, "No matter what you think, Mu Zhian is not a good person anyway. Didn't he not show up for the appointment today?"

"Who knows, he might be with other women now."

Ye Qian's face was a little disappointed, but she didn't say anything to defend herself.

After all, it was a fact that Mu Zhian had an appointment with them but didn't show up. Maybe what my sister said was right.

At this time, a new offer came from the private room not far away: "One thousand three hundred spirit stones."

Such a price has far exceeded the psychological endurance limit of most young cultivators. It's not that they don't have so many spirit stones, but it's really not worth spending so many spirit stones for a withered root.

"One thousand five hundred."

When Ye Lingxuan heard the sound of the follow-up in the private room again, she frowned and got angry.

Ye Qian gently placed her hand on the back of Ye Lingxuan's hand and said, "Sister, calm down. It's not worth spending so many spirit stones to buy a useless medicinal material."

It's okay to help Ye Yu because they played together for a while in the past, but it's not worth it if you spend too many spirit stones.

"I want to see what the other party's psychological tolerance is." Ye Lingxuan said lightly.

It's obvious that this young lady from a mysterious force has become angry and is unwilling to give in.

She opened her cherry mouth slightly and was about to speak again.

At this time, the curtain was suddenly lifted.

The two subconsciously looked up and saw a handsome young man standing in front of the private room. He smiled apologetically and said, "Sorry, we're late."

Ye Lingxuan was surprised at first, but soon her tone turned cold and she said lightly, "Mr. Mu, I thought you didn't plan to come."

"I didn't find you just now. If I hadn't heard your bid, I probably wouldn't have found you until the end of the auction." Mu Zhian said with a smile.

After a pause, he continued, "If I don't come again, you might raise the price to tens of thousands."

"If you really raise it to tens of thousands, even I will feel a little pain." Mu Zhian added.

The two sisters looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.

It turns out that the one who was bidding with them just now was the eldest young master of the Mu family?

…

At this moment in the audience, Ye Yu looked up at the sexy woman wearing a black cheongsam in front of the high platform, with an anxious look in his eyes.

"Strange... why didn't my sister follow me for the photo? Could it be that she didn't have enough spiritual stones on her body?"

If possible, he doesn't want the Soaring Dragon Beard to fall into the hands of others under any circumstances... because it is a waste of natural resources. Only people with extremely high alchemy talents can warm and nourish the Soaring Dragon Beard. Once photographed by others, the Soaring Dragon Beard will just be Just junk.

Only in his hands can Long Tengxu be restored in the future... Ye Yu was so convinced in his heart.

If that doesn't work, I can even ask Lingxuan to borrow some spirit stones first.

No matter what, I have to take a picture of the dragon beard first. This thing will definitely be a big help to me in the future... Ye Yu stared at the withered roots in front of the high platform with burning eyes. He made up his mind and walked quickly towards a certain place on the second floor. Walk to the elegant room.

"It should be here... I seemed to have heard Lingxuan's voice coming from here just now."

Ye Yu looked at the elegant room in front of him and stepped forward to lift the thin curtain.

At this time, the voice inside came softly from the private room:

"Sister Qian'er, I told you that I've been looking for you everywhere since I entered the auction house. Don't you think that Sister Lingxuan doesn't believe it, and you don't believe it either?"

"You smell like other women's rouge. I'm afraid you just made out with a girl in Jiaofangsi or somewhere?" Ye Lingxuan's voice was clear and clear.

"That's the smell of rouge on your body. If you don't believe me, just smell it..."

"Master Mu, please respect yourself!" Ye Lingxuan's tone was stern, but there was no hint of anger in his voice.

Hearing the sounds of fighting coming from time to time in the private room, Ye Yu's heart sank and he suddenly opened the curtain.
