At this time, everyone who came to participate in the auction entered the venue in an orderly manner under the arrangement of Wanbao Pavilion.
The person in charge of this auction was the girl who was with Ji Yue earlier, named Zhe Mei, while Yu Shi, the master of Wanbao Pavilion, was helping her.
This pavilion master has been staying in Shenglong City for these years, far away from the Emperor, and has developed a arrogant and arrogant temperament. The previous incident of Phoenix Blood Milo Grass and Seven-leaf Coriander made Ji Yue treat him I was dissatisfied, but because I had no one available, I kept this person, but he was marginalized.
After some pretentious remarks, Zhemei announced that the auction had officially begun. The first item to be auctioned was a physical martial art called Thousand Phantoms. After using it, the body can transform into thousands of phantoms, disrupting the opponent's sight. The lowest price is five thousand gold.
Lu Qing was not interested in this thing, but the people outside took it seriously, and there was a constant stream of people bidding on it.
Finally, it was sold for fifteen thousand gold, and the person who took it was a man with sunken eyes and white lips.
"Hey, isn't this the leader of the Bai family? Why does he look like he is about to die soon?" Ye Sangning was the first to say in surprise.
Lu Qing searched her memory and found out that this was really the head of the Bai family. She had met this man before at Lu Zhenyu's birthday banquet. At that time, he looked vigorous and vigorous. Why is he so haggard now? ,Did something happen to the Bai family?
"Ahem!"
Fang Chengyun coughed twice and successfully turned the attention of several people in the room to himself. He slapped his ever-present fan in the palm of his hand and said, "Speaking of which, Lu Anran, you still have to accept me." Affection."
"What do you mean by Mr. Fang's words?" Lu Qing asked.
Fang Chengyun played with his fan and said casually: "I heard Ah Yue tell you what happened. It is indeed legendary. The biggest power in Shenglong City is the three small families of Lu and Yangbai. Now these three families are all on the opposite side of you. , there is even a Huo family in Muyicheng. I don’t know when their revenge will come. Now I help you kill Bai Hengyuan, the sole heir of the Bai family. The Bai family will be in civil strife for a long time. One of the enemies in the four directions has been eliminated, do you think I have helped you a lot?"
"Did you kill Bai Hengyuan?" Lu Qing said in surprise, "If I remember correctly, when I was at the Lu family that day, I saw that Bai Hengyuan was with you."
Ji Yue was also looking at Fang Chengyun in confusion. When did he do this and why didn't he mention it to her? Could it be after she left the Lu family that day?
Fang Chengyun smiled flatteringly at her and explained: "I am not the same as him. He just accidentally knew my identity and followed me obsessively to please me. Later I learned that Ah Yue was in Sheng Longcheng, I just wanted to come to you. It just so happens that that boy is also from Shenglong City, and he said that the Bai family is one of the three major families in Shenglong City..."
Speaking of this, Fang Chengyun protracted his tone, and his tone was somewhat exaggerated. Yes, the Bai family compared to the Fang family is like ants compared to the elephant, but Bai Hengyuan said in front of the second generation ancestor of such a big family what kind of dragon he was. One of the three largest families in the city, it’s a bit funny to think about it.
"After I got the news about Ah Yue, I was thinking about doing something for her. I happened to know this Bai Hengyuan, so I thought about using him to integrate all the forces in Shenglong City and make them be used by Ah Yue. .That day at the Lu family, I saw A Yue befriending you, but you were against the Bai family, so naturally I can no longer support the Bai family."
Lu Qing: "You no longer want to support the Bai family. Does this have any inevitable connection with you killing Bai Hengyuan?"
Fang Chengyun spread his hands, "There is no necessary connection, but my subordinates don't like that kid's personality very much. Since he has become an outcast, let them do whatever they want with him."
Lu Qing nodded. Fang Chengyun came from a big family. In their eyes, the life and death of a person who has no use value naturally does not matter.
"Bai Hengyuan is indeed annoying, and he deserves to die." Ye Sangning suddenly said, and she thought of the disgusting words Bai Hengyuan said to Lu Qing outside Lu's house that day.
Lu Qing glanced at the slightly dazed Patriarch Bai in the room opposite, "So it seems that his appearance is entirely because of the death of his son?"
Outside the Wanbao Pavilion just now, everyone should be able to see the relationship between Fang Chengyun and his party and Wanbao Pavilion, but he still came in to participate in the auction. This guy is quite tolerant!
But think about it, your son is dead, and your enemy is an existence that you will never be able to defeat in your lifetime. There is no chance of revenge. You can't let this momentary anger affect the development of the entire family!
"I don't think it's entirely because of the death of my son." Ji Yue said suddenly. She was well-informed and had been in Shenglong City for so long that she had already understood the situation of all the forces.
"Among the three Lu, Yang, and Bai families in Shenglong City, the Lu family and the Yang family, the position of the head of the family is passed down from generation to generation. In each generation of descendants, except for the person who succeeds the position of the head of the family, the other brothers and sisters will become the head of the family as long as they have reached a certain level of martial arts. You can join the Presbyterian Church and enjoy family worship. Once you lose the selection of a successor, you will not be able to become the head of the family again. Even if the current head of the family has no heirs, the Presbyterian Hall will gather the next generation of the branch together. To teach and recommend the best people to be the successors of the family head.”
"But the Bai family is different. The Bai family does not have an elders' hall, and there is no tradition that the unsuccessful person cannot become the head of the family. The competitors of the Bai family back then are either working with him or being They were assigned to some unprofitable industries, and everyone had some small thoughts in their hearts. Now that the Bai family leader's only son has died, it is an opportunity for them, not only those who usually show dissatisfaction with him. , even the people who have been with him, he can’t completely rest assured now, that’s why he looks so exhausted.”
Ye Sangning blinked and said with some confusion: "The Bai family is in the prime of life. If nothing happens, he will definitely stay in the position of the family leader for a long time. Although he has lost a son now, he can definitely have another one. Yeah, why is it an opportunity for those people?"
This time Ji Yue pretended to cough twice and looked at Fang Chengyun subconsciously. Fang Chengyun smiled softly and took over the words: "I heard that the head of the Bai family was a romantic in his early years and accidentally injured his body. So after so many years, I only had one son, Bai Hengyuan, now that Bai Hengyuan is dead, even if he has the heart to regenerate, he has no power to do so."
Ye Sangning let out a light whoosh and opened his mouth wide, as if he had eaten a big melon.
Lu Qing looked at Fang Chengyun, "I never like to owe others favors. What do you want?"
Although even if no one from Fang Chengyun takes action, the Bai family will not pose any threat to her, and based on what Bai Hengyuan did to the original owner before, and what Bai Hengyuan said outside the Lu family that day, Lu Qing's He had long been placed on the must-kill list in his heart. And all this Fang Chengyun did was just for Ji Yue's face.
But if you do it, you do it. She doesn't have to go there in person, which can be regarded as saving her a little trouble.
Fang Chengyun shook his fan. He had proposed this so-called favor first, but now he looked like he didn't care, "Me? I don't want anything, just help my Ah Yue." , since Ah Yue likes you, it means that you can definitely help her."
Before Lu Qing could say anything, Ji Yue stood up immediately and kicked the stool he was sitting on, causing him to sit on all fours with the stool on his back. Two pieces of flying clouds appeared on his cheeks. Looking at Fang Chengyun fiercely, "What nonsense are you talking about? Who is your Ah Yue?"
Fang Chengyun just lay on the ground unable to get up, and pretended to be weird and yelled: "Ouch, ouch, it hurts me so much, Ah Yue, you are too cruel, I feel like my waist is broken, what if something bad happens to me?" What will happen to our happy life in the future?"
Ji Yue's face turned red from her cheeks to her ears. She stamped her feet and shouted, "Fang Chengyun! If you dare to talk nonsense again, do you believe I will have you thrown out?"
Fang Chengyun quickly got up from the ground and smiled flatteringly: "Ah Yue, I was wrong. I just wanted to make a joke."
"Are you joking like this? There are so many people, can you restrain yourself?" Ji Yue said dissatisfied.
"Okay, okay, I was wrong. I really know I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again next time."
"Do you still want to have a next time..."
Lu Qing, Ye Sangning, Mo Yu:...
We will just watch in silence and see when you will remember that there are three living people in this room!
After Fang Chengyun coaxed the people, Lu Qing took out a small bottle and said to the two of them: "Since you can't tell what you want, I'll make my own estimate. These are two pills of Mingxin. Taking it during practice can enhance your understanding of the realm. The higher the level of martial arts, the better the effect. If someone is trapped in a demonic obstacle, they can also take this pill to awaken their mind."
"You are you, Ji Yue is Ji Yue, I am not familiar with you, but Ji Yue and I have a cooperative relationship. As long as Ji Yue or Wanbao Pavilion does not do anything to make me angry, our cooperative relationship We can continue to be friendly. During the cooperation period, we will naturally be friends. If a friend asks for something, he should do his best, and this will be true regardless of whether you killed Bai Hengyuan or not." Lu Qing raised his eyebrows and said clearly Dan threw it to him, "So, we're cleared!"
Ji Yue's eyes lit up and she ran to Lu Qing with small steps, "You actually have other elixirs?"
Lu Qing raised his head and said, "As I said, the Foundation Establishment Pill is a sixth-level elixir. Have you ever seen a high-level alchemist who can only refine one or two elixirs?"
"That's true!" Ji Yue muttered, but soon her eyebrows rose again, "Then when are the other elixirs you have refined going to be auctioned?"
Lu Qing smiled and said: "If you can help me buy spiritual stones, then I will definitely provide you with more of these spiritual pills, but now there are no spiritual stones, why do I need so much money?"
