…
Li Bai interrupted with a sharp shout.
"You two have repeatedly provoked the majesty of this pavilion. It seems that you sincerely want to go against this pavilion. Then don't blame me for being rude!"
Following the old man's stern scolding, a breath of late-stage foundation building suddenly burst out from his body, and then, a jade-shaped token exuding a mysterious aura appeared in his hand.
Li Bai made a seal with his hands and recited silently, and the token immediately appeared in front of him.
"Get up!" A low shout sounded in his heart.
"boom……"
When the old man activated the token, the sky above the entire Tianbao Pavilion suddenly shook. In an instant, a thin film of colorful light enveloped the entire Tianbao Pavilion.
Sensing this movement, the monks in Tianbao Pavilion immediately put down what they were doing, blocked off all the important roads in an orderly manner, and a group of monks rushed straight to the auction house...
From Hu Laohu and Mrs. Wan's sarcasm to Li Bai's anger at the auction house, the whole process only took a few breaths.
A series of events overwhelmed everyone present at the auction house. Unexpectedly, in a sudden moment, the auction house was completely blocked and there was no way back.
"Fellow Daoist Li, please always maintain respect for your Majesty. It's not very good for you to do this..."
"Senior Li, this junior is just here to participate in the auction. I have not offended you in the slightest. Please open the formation and let me wait out."
"Yes, yes, Senior Li, we are innocent. Please show your respect and let me go..."
"senior……"
The sudden change caught everyone off guard. Countless noisy voices suddenly sounded in the auction house. Everyone could not accept this unreasonable disaster.
However, Li Bai paid no attention to the Qi-training monks in the hall or the foundation-building monks in other boxes. He just stared at the two boxes on the second floor with gloomy eyes, because Hu Laohu and Mrs. Wan were among them. !
"Meet Manager Li."
The leading monk who led the team here from Tianbao Pavilion was dressed in brown attire and a black scarf. Although he did not know his specific cultivation level, he gave the impression that he was not someone to be trifled with.
Li Bai nodded expressionlessly and pointed at everyone in the hall.
"Maintain order and wait for my orders."
"yes!"
…
Wang Shi'an was also shocked by the change in front of him. He jumped up from his seat with a kick. Just as he was about to speak, Wang Lequan waved his hand and interrupted.
"Don't panic, Tianbao Pavilion will take care of some minor matters. Go back and sit down."
Wang Shian hesitated slightly, but when he saw his uncle continuing to wave his hand towards him, he finally suppressed the throbbing in his heart and returned to his position.
But his eyes were still involuntarily observing the development of the situation below.
…
"Fellow Daoist Li, I have absolutely no intention of offending your majesty. If there were any inappropriate words or deeds just now, please bear with me, Friend Daoist Li!"
Hu Laohu, who had not taken it seriously just now, did not expect that Tianbao Pavilion would show his true intentions, and immediately apologized to Li Bai in a very respectful tone.
As a veteran late-stage foundation-building monk, Hu Laohu has some understanding of the background of Tianbao Pavilion. Although this place is only the lowest level organization of Tianbao Pavilion, there are not even deacons dispatched, only the stewards from the foundation-building period are in charge.
But this is definitely not something he can afford to offend. Before it gets too big, bowing your head and being submissive is the best way to solve it.
"Manager Li, my family has no intention of offending your family. This is a lesson to the world! And I am willing to compensate your family for what I have just done! I also ask fellow Daoist Li not to be the same as my family."
Mrs. Wan also put away her charming voice and spoke to Li Bai seriously.
"I am also willing to compensate!"
When Hu Laohu heard that Mrs. Wan was lower than him, he secretly cursed the slutty bitch in his heart, and then hurriedly spoke out.
"snort!"
Li Bai snorted heavily.
"If it weren't for the auction being held today, I wouldn't want to go to war. Otherwise, I must let you two know that the majesty of Tianbao Pavilion cannot be violated!"
Although the old man's words were harsh, his reluctance to go into details was clearly revealed. Compared with Hu Laohu and Mrs. Wan, they couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Li..."
"I am..."
"Okay, no need to say any more! Each person will immediately pay five thousand spiritual stones, and let this matter go." Li Bai interrupted directly.
"this……,"
"Huh? Do you have any objections?"
"I don't dare, I'm willing to pay for it..." Hu Laohu agreed with great pain. At this moment, he wanted to kill Mrs. Wan...
"I am willing to compensate..."
…
Watching the development of the whole incident, Wang Shian felt a little bit anticlimactic, and couldn't help but curiously asked:
"Uncle, Hu Laohu and Mrs. Wan Shi'an don't seem to be easy to offend, and they are so condescending to Senior Li Bai."
"Is there any hidden secret here? Or is the formation here so important that the two of them don't dare to provoke it easily?"
Wang Lequan shook his head calmly after hearing this, and then said in an incomprehensible tone:
"It's not as complicated as you think. Without it, the forces in Tianbao Pavilion wouldn't dare to provoke even Master Yuanying, let alone two monks who have perfected the foundation."
Seeing that Wang Shi'an was still preparing to ask, Wang Lequan raised his hand and pressed it down.
"You just need to remember that you can only befriend Tianbao Pavilion at any time and don't provoke Tianbao Pavilion. You will naturally know the rest when you reach a certain level. The same goes for you, Shilong, so remember it!"
"yes!"
What Wang Lequan said made Wang Shi'an and Wang Shi'an a little confused and confused. But since Wang Lequan said this, they could only suppress their questions secretly and nod in response.
…
After half a stick of incense...
"Hahaha, I'm sorry, I'm sorry for wasting your precious time. I can't stay with you here."
Li Bai walked out from behind the auction table with a smile on his face. As soon as he came up, he apologized to the monks around him with a low posture and clasped his fists. His approachable appearance was completely opposite to what he had just done. People who didn't know thought he was just an inconspicuous old man...
The monks around him listened to Li Bai's words and quickly replied.
"Haha, Fellow Daoist Li, it's serious, it's serious..."
"Senior Li has advanced cultivation and the golden elixir is at your fingertips. I drink it for my senior!"
"senior……"
Listening to the compliments and greetings from all around, whether they were monks in the Qi-training stage or foundation-building stage, Li Bai responded with a sincere smile and thanked them all.
"In order to express my apology, I have decided on behalf of this pavilion to refund the ticket fees collected for this auction! When the auction ends, fellow Taoists, please don't forget to claim it."
Hearing Li Bai's words, the monks present cheered again. For most casual cultivators in the Qi training period, five spiritual stones are not dispensable.
Seeing the cheers of the monks in the field, Li Bai nodded with satisfaction. For Tianbao Pavilion, even if all the ticket fees were refunded, it would still be less than five thousand spiritual stones.
On the other hand, Hu Laohu and the two were charged 10,000 spiritual stones as compensation. Not only would they not pay compensation every time, but they would also earn a wave of reputation. This was definitely more cost-effective than buying and selling.
"Okay, no more nonsense, I'm going to let the auction officially begin!"
Taking advantage of everyone's high emotions, Li Bai decisively announced the start of the auction.
As the old man finished speaking, a group of beautiful female nuns filed in from the backstage carrying small boxes covered with silk.
"The first auction item today, a high-quality magical weapon, the Mysterious Fire Sword!"
As Li Bai spoke, he came to a maid, lifted up the silk cloth, opened the box, took out the magic weapon and showed it to everyone.
"This magical weapon is mainly forged from the first-grade low-grade fire-attributed spiritual material, the flaming stone. When used, the flames burn the sky, and the power is infinite!" After saying that, he picked up the magical weapon, and a sea of fire suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
"The starting price of this sword is one hundred and fifty spiritual stones. Each increase in price must not be less than ten spiritual stones! If you like it, don't miss it!"
As soon as the old man finished speaking, there was a burst of bidding.
"I'll pay you one hundred and sixty yuan!"
"One hundred and eighty dollars!"
"Two hundred dollars!"
…
Wang Shian looked at this fire-attribute magic weapon with a fiery look in his eyes. This magic weapon was just right for him and he quickly made a bid.
"I'll pay you three hundred and eighty yuan!"
He asked his great-uncle Wang Lequan and learned that the price range of such a magical weapon is between 400 and 500 spiritual stones. If it exceeds this price, it is not worth it.
After Wang Shian finished shouting, there was a slight silence on the scene. Although the price was not very high for this magical artifact, it was definitely not low either. The bidders were in a hurry to raise funds.
"Three hundred and ninety dollars!"
A buzzing voice sounded in the field, bidding, obviously changing his voice.
"I, Wang Lequan, bid four hundred yuan!"
As soon as these words came out, the person who had just called out the price suddenly became silent.
When Li Bai heard this, he immediately looked at the box where Wang Lequan was sitting, frowned slightly, and said nothing. Although he felt that Wang Lequan was using his power to suppress others, his words did not break the rules, and it was hard for him to say anything. .
"Is there any other fellow Taoist bidders?" After a few seconds, Li Bai looked at everyone in the field and asked.
"three!"
"two!"
"one!"
"make a deal!"
…
Wang Shi'an looked at his uncle in astonishment. He didn't expect it to be like this. Doesn't that mean..., Wang Shi'an thought thoughtfully.
Sensing Wang Shian's gaze, Wang Xiujie shook his head slightly and explained.
"What are you thinking about? This kind of thing can be one or the other. This time it is because the price of this magic weapon is not low, and secondly it is to give our Wang family a face, so Tianbao Pavilion did not say anything more, otherwise you think Will the other party let it go?"
Hearing the words of the second grandfather, Wang Shian nodded in realization. Indeed, judging from the attitude Tianbao Pavilion treated Hu and Lao Lao just now, we can know that the rules of the auction should not be underestimated...
After thinking about this, although he was a little disappointed, when he thought that the Xuanhuo Sword had been taken, the depression in his heart immediately dissipated. This was his first high-grade magic weapon, and he couldn't help but look forward to it.
"Next is the high-quality defensive magic weapon..., the starting price is two hundred spiritual stones! Each increase in price must not be less than twenty spiritual stones!"
"Two hundred and twenty dollars!"
"two hundred……"
…
The auction was still going on fiercely below, and a maid had already entered the box where the Wang family was, carrying a tray containing the Mysterious Fire Sword.
After delivering the spirit stone, Wang Shi'an couldn't put it down when he looked at the Xuanhuo Sword in his hand, and couldn't wait to go out and demonstrate it immediately...
…
As the auction items were completed one after another, the atmosphere at the scene slowly reached a climax!
"Hmm!"
"Okay, I believe some fellow Taoists can't wait..." Li Bai slowly looked at everyone with a smile in his eyes.
"Without further ado, the auction of the four final items has officially begun!"
…
