As Zhou Ji announced the start of the auction, the attention of all the guests at the Zhou family auction venue also shifted from Duan Lingtian and Feng Tianwu to the auction stage.
Soon, someone brought out the first auction item, attracting the attention of everyone including Duan Lingtian.
After just one glance, Duan Lingtian withdrew his gaze.
The first auction item was a bottle of 'first-grade elixir'. Even through the elixir bottle, his mental power could easily detect the details of the elixir.
A first-grade elixir with a purity of less than '70%'.
In Duan Lingtian's eyes, this is no different from garbage.
However, the rubbish in Duan Lingtian's eyes does not mean that others also regard it as rubbish. In fact, in the eyes of many people, it is a 'treasure' that requires them to spend many high-grade yuan stones to obtain it.
"I will give you twenty high-grade Yuan Stones!"
"Thirty!"
"Fifty!"
…
The bottle of first-grade elixir that Duan Lingtian regarded as rubbish was finally purchased for a high price of one hundred and twenty high-grade yuan stones, which made Duan Lingtian unable to help but sigh.
He would not take such rubbish, let alone one hundred and twenty high-grade Yuan Stones, even if one low-grade Yuan Stone were sold to him.
Pills are different from spiritual weapons. Poor-quality spiritual weapons can be remade, but the same cannot be said for pills.
The auction is in full swing.
But in the Zhou family's mansion in Taiping City, it was not peaceful.
As a corpse was brought into the Zhou family's mansion, the entire Zhou family was in a state of shock. All the senior Zhou family members who stayed in the Zhou family and were not in retreat gathered together one after another.
In the Zhou family's main hall, above the first person, an old man wearing a green robe inlaid with gold sat there. The old man looked extremely healthy, with calm brows and an air of superiority.
This old man is none other than the current head of the Zhou family in Taiping City, Zhou Zheng!
Down below, there was a group of people gathered together. Among them were old people and middle-aged people, who were the elders of the Zhou family.
Now, they were surrounding a body lying on the ground.
This corpse was no stranger to them.
Zhou Li, the elder of the Zhou family, is the son of the eldest elder of the Zhou family.
"Master, who did this?"
A middle-aged elder of the Zhou family stared at Zhou Zheng, who was sitting at the head of the table, with wide eyes, and asked with an incredulous look on his face.
He couldn't imagine who would dare to be so bold.
He even dared to kill the only son of the eldest elder of their Zhou family!
For a moment, all the elders of the Zhou family also looked at Zhou Zheng, curious about this.
The eldest elder of their Zhou family is a famous strong man in the area around Taiping City.
In their view, daring to kill the only son of their Zhou family elder was tantamount to seeking death.
"Not sure yet."
Facing the curious looks of the elders of the Zhou family, Zhou Zheng shook his head.
"Not sure?"
Zhou Zheng's words made all the elders of the Zhou family completely dumbfounded.
"Master, what do you mean by this? Is it possible that Zhou Li doesn't even know who killed him?"
A Zhou family elder asked with a frown.
"If that's the case... then doesn't it mean that the Great Elder wants to avenge Zhou Li, but he can't find the murderer?"
"If the great elder leaves seclusion, he will definitely not be able to accept this fact."
…
Before Zhou Zheng could speak, other Zhou family elders were already talking.
"The murderer is now at our Zhou family's auction house."
As Zhou Zheng spoke, there was a dead silence.
After a moment, Elder Zhou was the first to react. A cold light flashed in his eyes and he said:
"The head of the family, the great elder has dedicated his life to our Zhou family... Now he is breaking through the retreat, and his only son was killed. We should arrest the murderer and wait for the great elder to be punished after he comes out of seclusion."
This suggestion from the Zhou family elders was approved by other Zhou family elders.
"If this matter were so simple...do you think I would let you do it?"
Zhou Zheng glanced at all the Zhou elders and asked.
For a moment, the elders of the Zhou family were silent.
"Master, is there anything difficult?"
Soon, a keen-minded elder from the Zhou family asked.
"good."
Zhou Zheng nodded and then said: "Zhou Li was killed in the backstage of our Zhou family auction house... Zhou Ji was also present when Zhou Li died."
Zhou Ji!
The manager of the Zhou Family Auction House!
He is also a powerful Zhou family elder.
Think about it, if you are not strong, how can you hold the position of steward of the 'Zhou Family Auction House', which is very important to the Zhou family.
"Elder Zhou Ji is present? Can the murderer still kill Zhou Li?"
Many elders of the Zhou family took a breath of air and their pupils shrank unconsciously.
Zhou Ji is a person at the seventh level of the Martial Emperor Realm. Looking at the Zhou family, his strength can be ranked among the top ten.
"According to Zhou Ji's words...he didn't even have time to react when the opponent took action. The opponent's strength is not inferior to him, or even stronger."
Zhou Zheng said in a deep voice.
"Our Zhou family, including the head of the family, the first elder, and the three supreme elders are all stronger than Elder Zhou Ji... Isn't it easy to deal with that person?"
Many Zhou elders said confidently.
"Of course I know this."
Zhou Zheng said: "But the problem is that the identity of the person who killed Zhou Li should not be simple."
"Um?"
As soon as Zhou Zheng said these words, it was no surprise that he attracted the attention of all the Zhou family elders, "Isn't your identity simple?"
"According to the descendants of the family who returned Zhou Li's body, the person who killed Zhou Li was a guest who came to our Zhou family auction house to send something for auction..."
Zhou Zheng said slowly, and after speaking, he paused.
"guest?"
"Since you are a guest, why would you kill Zhou Li?"
"Did Zhou Li take the initiative to provoke him?"
…
A group of Zhou family elders asked curiously.
"Today, two guests came to our Zhou Family Auction House to send items for auction..."
Facing the doubts of the Zhou family elders, Zhou Zheng told the ins and outs of what he knew one by one.
Including the customer who killed Zhou Li who sent for auction a first-grade spiritual weapon with a power increase of '90%' and a first-grade elixir with a purity of '90%' or above, everything was told.
Of course, Zhou Li did not miss the fact that he was greedy and intended to embezzle the things that the guest sent for auction.
Wow!
As Zhou Zheng finished speaking, there was an uproar in the Zhou family hall.
The faces of many Zhou family elders became a little ugly, and more people blushed, as if they were embarrassed for something.
"Shame! What a shame!"
"Zhou Li not only disgraced himself at his grandma's house this time, he also disgraced our Zhou family's face! If that guest spreads the matter, who will dare to send items for auction at our Zhou family's auction house in the future?"
"Although I respect the Great Elder, regarding this matter, I can only say... Zhou Li deserves to die!"
"Yes! You deserve to die!"
…
After understanding the ins and outs of the matter, many elders of the Zhou family turned the blame and pointed directly at the dead Zhou Li, and they were all filled with righteous indignation.
"Quiet!"
Following Zhou Zheng's cold shout, the Zhou family hall returned to calm.
"In this matter, even if Zhou Li did something wrong again, he paid the price with his life...so I don't want anyone to talk about his faults anymore."
Zhou Zheng looked around and said in a deep voice.
Suddenly, all the Zhou elders fell silent.
"Master, you just said...that guest said that the first-grade spiritual weapon he sent for auction, which can increase the power by '90%', was refined by a first-grade weapon refiner in his sect?"
An elder from the Zhou family looked at Zhou Zheng and asked.
"That's right."
Zhou Zheng nodded, "That's what the family disciple sent back by Zhou Ji said... In addition, Zhou Ji suspects that the first-grade rejuvenation pill with a purity of '90%' was also made by a first-grade alchemist from the sect where that person belongs."
Wow!
When Zhou Zheng said these words, it was like a stone stirring up a thousand waves, causing the expressions of all the Zhou elders present to change.
"If that's true...then the sect he belongs to has two extraordinary weapon refiners and pharmacists? Oh my God! How powerful such a sect must be."
Many Zhou parents whispered.
"So, before we find out his details, not only can we, the Zhou family, not offend him, but even if the great elder comes out of seclusion, we can't let the great elder go find trouble with him."
When Zhou Zheng talked about it later, his face showed fear.
All the Zhou parents were deeply convinced.
"Master! Master!"
At this moment, a rapid voice came from outside, panting, obviously someone who had just rushed back to the Zhou family.
"Um?"
Zhou Zheng raised his brows and responded, "Come in."
After a moment, a hurried son of the Zhou family came to the main hall. When he saw all the elders of the Zhou family present, his expression was inevitably a little restrained.
"You came to me in such a hurry, but what happened at the auction house?"
Zhou Zheng asked as he recognized the person who was in charge of the Zhou family's auction house.
Auction house?
As soon as Zhou Zheng opened his mouth, all the Zhou family elders looked at the visitor, with a bit of curiosity in their eyes, wondering why he was acting in such a hurry and rushed back to the family to find the head of the family.
"yes."
The Zhou family disciples who rushed back nodded hurriedly.
"explain!"
Zhou Zheng said.
"Master, the guest who killed Elder Zhou Li and the woman around him killed the young master of the Zhenwu Sect and the people around him at our Zhou family auction house."
The Zhou family disciple said in one breath that he was the one who came back to report this letter.
As soon as the disciples of the Zhou family finished speaking, the whole place fell silent.
The young master of Zhenwu Sect?
"Which young sect master? But the young sect master 'Wu Jian' who is responsible for Zhenwu Sect's property in our Taiping City?"
Zhou Zheng, as the head of the Zhou family and one of the strongest men in the Zhou family, reacted immediately and asked.
Wu Jian, the eldest son of the Zhenwu Sect leader.
He usually stays in Taiping City and takes care of the Zhenwu Sect's properties in Taiping City. He is also a powerful being and is not under the steward of their Zhou family auction house, Zhou Ji.
"no."
The disciples of the Zhou family shook their heads and said with a bitter smile: "It's Wujie! The youngest son of the Zhenwu Sect's leader."
"Steward Zhou Ji has sent Wu Jie's body to the Zhenwu Sect's property in Taiping City... By this time, Wu Jian should have seen his brother's body."
Immediately afterwards, the Zhou family disciples said again.
"Wujie?"
Zhou Zheng's eyes flashed and he murmured, "It seems that our Taiping City is destined to not be peaceful today."
