Chapter 264: The Auction Begins

"I haven't seen you for a long time, and now the old lady is okay?"

In front of the Sihai Auction House, Zhou Bichen was a smiling visitor from all over the world, accompanied by several old men by his side, and his face was also full of joy. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Old Lady Zhou successfully advanced to the Heavenly and Human Realm, no matter how he broke through, anyway, now Old Lady Zhou's strength has surpassed Zhao Wuji, who is known as the strongest person in the Heavenly Court, and it is the strength of the Triple Heavenly Peak of the Heavenly and Human Realm. In the era when all the strong people of the older generation in Heavenly Court have retired, Old Lady Zhou is now the strongest person in Heavenly Court.

Originally, Mrs. Zhou couldn't break through for tens of thousands of years, and was gradually surpassed by her juniors, and the status of the Zhou family was in jeopardy. Now that Old Lady Zhou is the strongest person in the Heavenly Court, the situation has changed immediately, and the people who used to meet with nostrils facing the sky have also forced a smile and politeness.

And these people in front of them are the people who used to have their nostrils facing the sky.

"Ai family master, you are here too, please ...... inside."

The Ai family is an emerging family, but its strength is so strong that no one dares to underestimate it in the entire Fuling Island. Ai Xinlang, the head of the Ai family, not to mention that he is already the strength of the Martial Saint Realm, his younger brother Ai Heping is now the head of the thirty-six generals of the Heavenly Court, and he is a real Martial Infant Realm Ninefold powerhouse.

The Ai family has a close relationship with the Heavenly Court Imperial Family, and is one of the Heavenly Court Emperor's most trusted henchmen. Therefore, the Ai family has developed extremely rapidly, and no one dares to offend the Ai family now.

"Hmph, if it weren't for the elixir, I'm afraid Old Lady Zhou would be in the ground......"

Behind Ai Xinlang, a young man-looking man snorted in his nostrils, extremely disdainful.

"Oh... This is Ai Ziai Gongzi, today is the day of the auction of the Four Seas Auction House, please be cautious. ”

Zhou Bichen frowned, his face immediately became serious, showing a lot of unhappiness.

Ai Zi is a young strong man in the heavenly court who is as famous as Zhou Bichen, young people have always liked to compete for superiority, Ai Zi has always been unconvinced by Zhou Bichen, and even hates Zhou Bichen for being engaged to the eldest princess of the royal family. Therefore, he has always regarded Zhou Bichen as a thorn in his eye, and he has been against Zhou Bichen everywhere. And publicly stated that after he became the head of the Ai family, it was the time when the Zhou family declined.

Ai Zi also has the capital of his pride, and after cultivating for less than two thousand years, he is already the strength of the Martial God Realm, and compared with Zhou Pichen, it is not inferior. The only fly in the ointment is that Zhou Bichen has only practiced for more than a thousand years, and he can be regarded as a descendant of Aizi.

And Xuanyuan Luoyan, the eldest princess of the Heavenly Court, is the first beauty of the Heavenly Court, and the dream lover of all the young generations in the entire Heavenly Court. Someone once said that in this life, you don't seek immortality, but you want Xuanyuan to show her beauty. Xuanyuan Luoyan is known as the first beauty in the heavenly court, and her strength is naturally not bad, although she is not as proud of the sky as Zhou Bichen, but she also has the cultivation of the five heavens of the Martial God Realm.

And Xuanyuan Luoyan, who is only more than a thousand years old now, was born on the same day as Zhou Bichen.

As the most trusted confidant of the royal family, Ai Zi often has no one in his eyes, even if he is a child of the royal family, there is a lot of bullying, and the royal family always turns a blind eye and does things hastily, which also fuels the arrogance of the Ai family, making Ai Zi think that the mourning family is the first family in Heaven. In addition to the Zhao family where Zao Wou-Ki is located, the Wu family where Wu Di is located, even the royal family supported by Huang Biao is not in his eyes.

And the Zhou family is gradually losing the afterglow of the past, in addition to the old lady Zhou can also support the face of the Zhou family, Zhou Bichen has also gradually risen. But it can't stop the contempt of others. And Ai Zi looks down on the Zhou family the most, especially after the Ai family has surpassed the Zhou family in all aspects, and he doesn't take the Zhou family seriously.

"Zi'er, don't be rude!"

Ai Xinlang pretended to reprimand in a low voice, glanced at Zhou Bichen with a slight apology, walked towards the auction, just walked a few steps, turned his head and whispered: "Oh, I forgot to tell the prince of Bichen, the chief of the palace guard, I was begged by my family to make His Majesty the chief, and the prince of Bichen may have to be transferred elsewhere......"

"Hmph, when my Ai family bids for the barrier breaking pill, the Zhou family is still the thing under my feet......"

With a triumphant smile, Aizi walked into the auction hall with his head held high.

"Childe ......"

Zhou Bichen kept a cold face and didn't argue, but several old men behind Zhou Bichen couldn't stand it, and one of the old men, his eyes were almost on fire, and he shouted in a low voice. He could barely suppress the anger in his heart, and he was about to rush up and beat the Ai family father and son.

"The Ai family is really too deceitful, have they forgotten that it was because of the recommendation of the old lady that the Ai family entered the eyes of the emperor five thousand years ago, and it gradually became brilliant... Hmph, cross the river and tear down the bridge, ungrateful people ......"

The Ai family used to be just a small local official, and after taking refuge in Zhou Benshan, they gradually made their fortunes, and it can be said that Zhou Benshan was the benefactor of the Ai family and the nobleman of the Ai family. And now the Ai family bites back, not only does not take the Zhou family in their eyes, but also embarrasses the Zhou family everywhere.

Since the old lady Zhou stepped down as the emperor's penman, the Zhou family is in the Heavenly Court, and only Zhou Bichen has an official position. The chief of the guard, but an important position to protect the safety of the entire palace, his status is comparable to that of the thirty-six generals.

But now, the only important position of the Zhou family has also been snatched away by the Ai family.

"Uncle Xiong doesn't have to care, no matter how arrogant they are, they are just a dog of the emperor. Now that the emperor has ascended to the throne for the first time, the forces of all parties are still unbalanced, and they need a dog like the Ai family that can bite people... And I am a horse for the heavenly court, and Luo Yan is the emperor's favorite eldest daughter, with Luo Yan here, the Zhou family is as stable as Mount Tai......"

Zhou Bichen squinted his eyes, revealing a cold light. But then a kind of loneliness in his eyes leaked out undisguisedly, but he quickly hid it.

"The old lady is now at the peak of the triple peak of the realm of heaven and man, the Zhou family is no longer the Zhou family of the past, even if the Ai family wants to step on my Zhou family, they must have that ability... And the Barrier Breaking Pill, so many people in the entire Heavenly Court want to get it, it's not certain whether the Ai family can get it......"

Zhou Bichen's words made several old men behind him breathe a sigh of relief, returned to their calmness just now, and stood beside Zhou Bichen with their hands down, their eyes lowered.

These old men are the pillars of the Zhou family, they are the former subordinates of the old lady Zhou, each of them is above the seventh level of the Martial Saint Realm, they are the same milk and eight brothers, together they can only have hatred even if they are at the peak of the Martial Saint Realm......

And Zhou Xiong is the eldest of the eight brothers, the strongest in strength, and he is the Eight Heavens of the Martial Saint Realm.

"Hehe, the nephew of the dust, but it's getting more and more dusty......"

A hearty laugh, from far and near, caused many people's side eyes. A middle-aged man with two old men and a young man strode over, and in the blink of an eye, he was already standing in front of Zhou Bichen.

"Uncle Wang, you are really a rare guest......

Zhou Bichen bowed slightly, with a sincere smile on his face.

The person who came was Wang Shen, the head of the Wang family, who had always been good friends with the Zhou family. It's just that the Wang family has never participated in the auction, and now the head of the Wang family has come in person, which is not only a support, but also shows that the barrier breaking pill makes the head of the Wang family, a person who is as stable as Mount Tai, also moved.

"What kind of rare guest is not rare, and there is no need to be so polite, to put it bluntly, it is not for the barrier breaking pill?"

Wang Shen laughed at himself, but his eyes showed a fiery fire that was difficult to hide.

"Come on, come on... Meng'er, haven't you been clamoring to see your big brother Bichen, and now my father will introduce you to you... Bichen Xian's nephew, this is my son Wang Meng, who is now nineteen years old, and has just participated in the selection of palace guards and has become a team leader, and will bring more ...... in the future."

Wang Shen looked at his beloved son with some doting, looking like I was paving the way for you. Wang Meng is Wang Shen's youngest son and has two older sisters. It's just that the Wang family is not prosperous, Wang Shen has lived for thousands of years, and he has gone to many wives and concubines to get such a son, who was very spoiled in the past.

Fortunately, Wang Meng has an introverted personality and cultivates very hard, and now he is only nineteen years old, and he is already the strength of the Eight Heavens of the Martial Infant Realm.

"Oh, I often hear that the Wang family has produced a thousand-mile horse, and at a young age, he has already secured the name of the first day of the Heavenly Court boy, which is really gratifying. It's just a little sorry, I can't take care of Brother Wang Mengxian......" After Wang Shen's face changed several times, Zhou Bichen said with some regret: "Brother Wang Mengxian's future achievements are definitely stronger than mine, and the road is farther than mine." I was also in my twenties before I advanced to the Eight Heavens of the Martial Infant Realm. ”

The further a martial artist cultivates, the slower the progress of the realm, often for decades or hundreds of years, and it is difficult to make any progress. And Wang Meng was able to break through to the Eight Heavens of the Martial Infant Realm at the age of nineteen, this qualification is rare in the entire Heavenly Court, even Zhou Bichen, who is known as the first person of the young generation, was inferior when he was young.

"The chief of the guard, he has been taken away by the Ai family......"

Zhou Bichen's face was full of apologies, the two families of Zhou and Wang had close contacts, and the Wang family rarely took the initiative to ask the Zhou family to help, but he didn't expect that the first time he spoke, Zhou Bichen couldn't do anything.

"Ai family?"

Wang Shen frowned: "The Ai family is becoming more and more arrogant...... This is also the emperor's meaning, you can't disobey it... Pichen Xian nephew, don't be discouraged, don't forget, the Zhou family is not the same as in the past, the old lady Zhou is now the strongest person in the heavenly court, even if the Ai family gets the barrier-breaking pill, they can't change it. ”

"Uncle Wang... I know that you want to bid for the Barrier Breaking Pill, and I can fund you, without any return, as if I was honoring you. When the time comes, you just need to increase the price... Lingyuan is not a problem......"

Zhou Bichen smiled mysteriously, his eyes blinking.

"Uh...... Nephew Pichen, you're so bad... But I like it!haha......"

Wang Shen smiled, patted Zhou Bichen's shoulder, and walked towards the auction venue. When Wang Meng entered the auction hall, he showed gratitude and bowed deeply.

"I'm not bad, it's a strategy. Uncle Wang of the Wang family and others, when the Zhou family was down, always supported them and secretly helped a lot. This time, it should be the Zhou family's gratitude......"

Wang Shen was stunned, did not turn around, and continued to walk inward.

"The rise of the Wang family and the Zhou family are each other's horns, so that they can keep warm in the increasingly chaotic heavenly court. Am I talking about, Your Majesty?"

Zhou Bichen muttered to himself, looking at the royal honor guard with a very grand pomp in the distance, his eyes were complicated.
