Chapter 13 Auctions
Imperial City, Tianyue Pavilion Auction House.
After a few days of waiting, Xu Ling came to Tianyue Pavilion as promised.
Today's Tianyue Pavilion is particularly lively, the front of the door is full of traffic, and the people who come and go are all rich or noble, and there are many disciples of the top big families who take demon beasts as their mounts.
The purpose of their coming here today was naturally to be invited by Tianyue Pavilion.
Although Xu Ling had told Tianyue Pavilion before that he wanted to handle this auction in a low-key manner, in order to maximize his own interests, Tianyue Pavilion still made some publicity.
Of course, they didn't completely ignore Xu Ling's explanation, so the people invited this time were all well-known people in the imperial city.
"I heard that in this auction, Tianyue Pavilion has prepared a mysterious object as the grand finale of this auction. ”
"I've also heard about this, according to the legend of Tianyue Pavilion, once that thing is taken out, it will definitely shock the entire imperial city. ”
"Hehe, I want to see what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of Tianyue Pavilion this day, if it doesn't satisfy me, how can the old man explain it?"
In the vast and luxurious auction hall of Tianyue Pavilion, a group of people with extraordinary momentum were talking in a low voice.
Obviously, they all came for the grand finale.
Xu Ling didn't make too much of a fuss, he just sat quietly in a corner of the auction hall, looking at everyone in the hall with an indifferent face.
After hearing these people's discussions, Xu Ling just smiled faintly.
"Yo, isn't this the eldest young master of the Xu family in the Megatron Imperial City, why are you here today?"
At this moment, several figures suddenly walked towards Xu Ling, and the person at the head was none other than Nangong Lianyue, who was under the leadership of Nangong Tianying not long ago, who made trouble for the Xu family.
In addition, behind Nangong Lianyue, there were also several genius disciples of the Nangong family.
When Xu Ling heard this, he glanced at Nangong Lianyue lightly, and a slight sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then, he turned around, too lazy to pay attention to Nangong Lianyue, and his eyes wandered away from everyone in the hall again.
Seeing that Xu Ling was actually in front of everyone, Nangong Lianyue disdained to take care of herself, and suddenly felt that her face was dull, and she forcibly held back her anger, and said, "Xu Ling, I really don't understand, how you were invited by Tianyue Pavilion with such a waste." ”
"Also, don't tell me, you're here to shoot treasures, with your current status, I'm afraid that the Xu family won't give it to you, so you're here to see the excitement today, giggle......"
Nangong Lianyue said this, and couldn't help but let out a silver bell-like laugh, and even several disciples of the Nangong family behind him also laughed.
"Sister Liyue is right, just his waste, what else can he do besides watching the excitement?"
"I really don't know what Tianyue Pavilion thinks, it would let this waste in. ”
The young man Xiang Ming behind Nangong Lianyue also ridiculed.
Xu Ling listened to the ridicule of several people, but he didn't feel too angry, because he really didn't want to deal with these clowns.
However, having these flies shouting on the side really affected his mood.
Immediately, I saw Xu Ling wave his hand and pat the air with disgust, looked at Nangong Lianyue with disgust, and said, "Nangong Lianyue, have you been suffering from endocrine disorders recently? ”
"You!"
Nangong Lianyue was suddenly extremely angry, and even the pair on her chest was up and down.
"Besides, you're right, I'm really here to see the excitement today. Without waiting for Nangong Lianyue to continue speaking, Xu Ling changed his words and continued: "However, I can be very sure that your Nangong family will definitely not get that finale treasure today!"
"Presumptuous!" A young man standing behind Nangong Lianyue saw Nangong Lianyue being humiliated, and immediately shouted: "Xu Ling, who do you think you are? Let me tell you the truth, my Nangong family is determined to get that heavy treasure today!"
"That's right, this piece of waste is so unbelievable that he dares to make a big statement here, I think he's crazy. ”
Several teenagers behind Nangong Lianyue all looked at Xu Ling with righteous indignation.
At this time, Nangong Lianyue also calmed down and said, "Xu Ling, you are crazy, there are only ten days left before the battle of life and death, and my brother will definitely give you a good ride at that time." ”
When Xu Ling heard this, he couldn't help but smile coldly, and said, "Very good, then you can go back and tell Nangong Wuji to wash his neck and wait for me." ”
"You ......"
Nangong Lianyue and the others didn't seem to expect Xu Ling to be so arrogant, they were all so angry that they couldn't speak for a while.
"Everyone, please be quiet!"
At this moment, a deep sound came from the center of the auction hall.
"Next, please take your seats, the auction will be held on time in half an hour!"
As the voice fell, in the hall, everyone began to gradually take their seats, and at the same time, some of them with noble status were introduced to the VIP area by the maids of Tianyue Pavilion.
"A few geniuses from the Nangong family, please follow me to the VIP area. ”
A maid of Tianyue Pavilion came to Nangong Lianyue and the others, and asked with a smile.
"I'm waiting for exactly. Nangong Lianyue suddenly turned her anger into joy, looked at Xu Ling with a smug face, and said, "Xu Ling, this girl won't accompany a lowly person like you, you just stay here and watch how this girl got that heavy treasure." ”
"Really?"
Xu Ling smiled indifferently and was about to speak, but saw a girl dressed quite noblely come over.
Although this girl was wearing the uniform of Tianyue Pavilion, in terms of temperament, she was obviously higher than the maid who greeted Nangong Lianyue and the others, and the status of the two was also clear at a glance.
"May I ask if it's Li Gongzi?" the girl asked cautiously, looking quite respectful.
Xu Ling nodded slightly and said, "Let's go." ”
Immediately, under the bewilderment of Nangong Lianyue and others, he went away with the girl.
"What's the situation?"
A young man from the Nangong family looked at Xu Ling's back in amazement.
"How could this kid go to the VIP area?"
"Am I dazzled?"
Several teenagers from the Nangong family were full of question marks and shock. And Nangong Lianyue was even more pale, and there was a sense of foreboding in her heart.
"Several, if you don't leave again, don't blame me for not being with you. ”
The maid had been observing her words, and at this moment, when she saw Xu Ling being picked up by her boss, it was obvious that her identity was extraordinary, while Nangong Lianyue and the others were standing here like fools, and they were also disrespectful to Xu Ling just now, if she really offended that distinguished guest, maybe even she would be implicated, which naturally made her dissatisfied.
"Let's go... Let's go, let's go right away. ”
When Nangong Lianyue heard this, she suddenly came back to her senses, and followed behind the maid with a few teenagers in some embarrassment.
At the same time, Xu Ling was led by the noble girl to a luxuriously decorated room.
When Xu Ling arrived, there were already several people sitting in the room. These people are all imposing, and they are obviously in high positions.
However, there are two of them, Xu Ling knows. Because these two people were Zhong Liang, the head of the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce who traded with him that day, and Huang Lao, the spirit pattern master.
"This little friend is a little familiar. ”
As soon as Xu Ling entered the door, Huang Lao's gaze fell on him, and there was a faint hint of coldness in his cloudy triangular eyes.
"Really?"
Xu Ling smiled coldly, and he was also slightly nervous in his heart, obviously, he didn't expect that Huang Lao would be here, it seems that this old guy also wanted to take the opportunity to shoot that "Spiritual Cultivation Technique".
However, Xu Ling didn't pay much attention to Huang Lao, but instead looked at Manager Zhong and said, "This is Manager Zhong, let me bring you a message." ”
"Oh?" Zhong Liang's face suddenly changed slightly when he heard this, and he said, "I don't know what the Venerable Master commands." ”
Seeing this, Xu Ling knew that this Chief Manager Zhong had already had a sense of awe for the mask man he was playing, and his face immediately sank, and he said: "Master respected his old man and said that if the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce dares to make a small move next time, don't blame him for turning his face and being ruthless!"
"What!" Zhong Liang was taken aback for a moment, and said, "Why did the commander say this, please also ask Shaoxia to make it clear." ”
Zhong Liang really didn't know about the events of that day, so he was also full of doubts when he faced your Xu Ling's questioning now.
"Hmph, Manager Zhong, don't say dark words in front of the Ming people, as soon as the old man left the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce that day, someone followed, if it weren't for Manager Zhong's face, I'm afraid that person would have been a corpse a long time ago!"
Xu Ling said, and his eyes suddenly swept to Huang Lao on the side.
"This ......"
Manager Zhong observed his words and looks, and he didn't understand who Xu Ling was referring to, so his face immediately sank, and he said, "Old Huang, is it really a good thing you did?"
"I..."
Huang Lao's face suddenly turned ugly, and he was quite surprised in his heart, it turned out that he was discovered by the mysterious person that day, and besides, listening to Xu Ling's words, he still escaped with his life that day.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but secretly rejoice, but he also knew that today's matter was no longer good, so he immediately looked at Xu Ling with a resentful face, and couldn't wait to set up a killer, and said: "Boy, it was really you that day, no wonder I always felt that you were a little familiar, but I didn't expect you to be that person's apprentice." ”
"What's the matter? Could it be that Huang Lao still wants to kill me, but he can't do it!" In the face of Huang Lao's oppression, Xu Ling was-for-tat, there were so many people at the moment, he didn't believe that this old guy dared to do it.
"You ......"
After a long time, Huang Lao finally endured it, looked at Zhong Liang and pleaded: "Manager Zhong, I was also a ghost for a while that day, please forgive me for the sake of my service to the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce over the years." ”
"Hmph!" Zhong Liang now completely understood, and immediately said angrily: "Huang Lao'er, you are so bold, you dare to beat the idea of my Chamber of Commerce distinguished guests, from today on, I will officially fire you!"
"No, Mr. Zhong, please give me another chance. Huang Lao's face turned pale suddenly, and he begged bitterly: "I promise that I won't dare next time." ”
"Alas......"
When Zhong Liang heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Xu Ling, to be honest, he really couldn't bear to drive Huang Lao away, because after working together all these years, the two did have some affection. If it weren't for the fear of the master behind Xu Ling, he would naturally not do this.
Of course, he still didn't want to offend this big guest, so he could only sacrifice Huang Lao.
It's just that he also hopes that Xu Ling can open up the net. However, Xu Ling obviously didn't eat this, and still looked at Huang Lao with a cold face.
Seeing this, Zhong Liang couldn't understand what Xu Ling meant?
"Well, let's go. ”
After a long time, Zhong Liang let out a long sigh and said, "You should be glad this time that the adult didn't kill you with his own hands, I hope you can have a longer memory in the future." ”
"Good!"
Seeing that the plea failed, Huang Lao suddenly revealed his true face, glanced at Xu Ling and Zhong Liang coldly, and said, "There is no place to stay here, there is a place to keep a master." ”
Immediately, he brushed his sleeves away.
