Hearing Xu Yan's cold tone, Xu Ao frowned and said: "Second brother, don't be impulsive, you haven't been here for ten years, you don't know the fierceness of that section of the mountain, as early as a year ago, his strength reached the Eight Heavens of the Huangwu Realm, and now it is estimated that he has entered the peak stage, plus he has many subordinates." If you www.biquge.info hard-hitting, you won't be able to please at all. β
"You are the only person in the Xu family who has the potential to become a strong man, and there must be no mistakes!"
Xu Ao's tone was very heavy and serious.
There weren't many people who had reached the Huangwu Realm at the age of seventeen, not to mention that Xu Yan's real cultivation time was only three years. In three years, the strength reached the Huangwu Realm, and he also fought two Huangwu Realm monks and killed them, this kind of talent is simply perverted.
And it is precisely because of this that Xu Ao has regarded Xu Yan as the pillar of the Xu family, even if everyone dies, his second brother must be unscathed. For the sake of his second brother, he was even willing to suffer the loss of the family's property being occupied.
Looking at Xu Ao's serious expression, Xu Yan's heart was as warm as a burning stove, and he smiled softly: "Don't worry, big brother, if I am not completely sure, I will not do it." β
Xu Ao looked at Xu Yan suspiciously, and when he saw the latter's clear eyes, it didn't look like he was lying, so he breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "Okay, I barely believe you kid, but don't think about these things now, there is something more important that needs to be done." β
Xu Yan raised his eyebrows and became interested: "What's the matter?"
"Sit down and say. Xu Ao smiled.
The two of them found a table and sat down. Xu Ao took out a triangular gold medal from his arms and carefully handed it to Xu Yan.
The triangular gold medal is scattered with bright gold throughout, and a big "Rong" word is engraved in the middle, although it is not a fine carving, but it can be regarded as a heart. Xu Yan put it in his hand and gently checked it, the weight was quite heavy, it was real gold.
"This is the guest token of the Snow Winter City Auction Workshop. Xu Ao had a hint of yearning on his face: "Snow Winter City is not like Yan City, it is a real big place. There is a casual family in it that is richer than the city lord of Yancheng. This auction imitation is even more remarkable, it was opened by the Rong family of the second family of Snow Winter City, and the scale and scene are very grand. Our family was lucky enough to get such a gold medal thanks to our father's light. And today, it happens to be the day they are holding an auction this year!"
Xu Yan looked at Xu Ao helplessly, and said, "Big brother doesn't want to auction things." β
Xu Ao shook his head with a smile: "Don't laugh, a character at that level can casually auction something for 100,000 yuan, and our family can't afford it." But this gold medal is also put away, it is better to go to a long time. β
The little people have the fun of the little people, the rich children like to splurge, the little people like to watch them squander, and by the way, they come into contact with some things they haven't seen, and this feeling is also quite good.
"And. Xu Ao restrained his mood a little and said, "Go in this time, and buy some jewelry for Fei'er by the way." Girls have always liked that kind of stuff. β
At the mention of Xu Fei, Xu Ao felt a little guilty. This little girl actually likes to be lively, but then the family changed, and she became more and more silent. should have been the age of a young girl, but she took up arms to fight for the sake of her family, which made Xu Ao always feel indebted to her sister.
"Good. Xu Yan no longer hesitated.
Snow Winter City is only about twenty miles away from Yan City, and it only takes an hour to drive the black-maned horses of the Xu family to reach it. Xu Ao instructed Xu Lang and Xu Fei to stay at home to deal with affairs, and he accompanied Xu Yan on horseback.
"Second brother, aren't you sitting on your flowing fire beast?" asked Xu Ao as he got on his horse.
Xu Yan shook his head: "That guy seems to have gone to the Yancheng Mountain Range just now, I don't know if he went to mate with a female beast." Leave it alone. Let's go. β
The two of them mounted their horses one after another. Xu Lang saw him off at the door, but his eyes kept staring at Xu Yan intently, in his eyes, the light flashed, his mouth opened and closed, as if he wanted to say something, but he wanted to stop talking.
Xu Yan saw through Xu Lang's small movements, and asked with a smile: "Xiao Lang, what to say." What are you doing?"
"Big brother, second brother, I just heard the two people of the Xie family tell the truth, it is indeed they who sold my Xu family's property to Duan Bashan!" Xu Lang's face turned red, and his fists clenched with hatred: "Since we know this, we now have a reason to go to the Xie family and Duan Bashan to ask for guilt!"
Xu Yan smiled, looked at Xu Lang, whose body trembled slightly because of anger, and said, "Xiao Lang, you are too naΓ―ve. The Xie family is a group of rats, and Duan Bashan is a local snake, so it is better to ask them to ask for their debts. β
"Then we will settle accounts with them personally!" Xu Lang said without hesitation: "Second brother, you must be better than them now! As long as you come out, we will definitely win!"
"Xiao Lang!" Xu Ao frowned and interrupted him, "We have to go to Snow Winter City first, and we will talk about these things when we come back." β
Hearing Xu Ao's stern words, Xu Lang took a deep breath, lowered his head and stopped talking. But those low-hanging dark eyes were surging with an unquenchable flame of anger.
The two of them rode towards Snow Winter City, and along the way, Xu Yan was lying on his back on horseback, pouring wine, his eyes half-closed and half-open, and he looked lazy and couldn't wake up. Xu Ao occasionally wanted to interject, but when he saw the young man's ignorant appearance, he had to pout and remain silent.
As an hour passed, the gates of Snowwinter City gradually became clear. The magnificent city walls, the heavy city gates, and the dozens of soldiers guarding the city who patrolled back and forth exuded a solemn atmosphere everywhere. This is something that the small Yan City can't compare to at all.
Through the investigation of the soldiers, the two entered the city and led the horses through the bustling streets.
As the second family of Snow Winter City, every time the Rong family holds an auction, it will attract countless people to come here. Although most of these people don't have invitations, it's a pleasure to get a feel for the lively atmosphere. And with the increasing number of people, and finally even formed a trend, as soon as the Rong family opened an auction, Snow Winter City was as lively as a temple fair.
There are countless stalls on the street, full of all kinds of novelties. Xu Yan pondered the gift he had bought for that glamorous little uncle before, it seemed that the little goblin liked the sky-blue belly pocket?
After wandering for a long time, Xu Yan finally chose only one pendant.
"The auction is almost here, let's go inside. Xu Ao, who had been paying attention to the time, suddenly shouted out in a hurried tone at a certain moment, and the expression on his face was full of impatient colors.
The two walked towards the location where the auction was held. Xu Yan stretched out his hand to cover his forehead, squinting at the huge auction hall like a fortress, if you look at it from a distance, it looks like a high mountain standing there, it looks very spectacular.
The huge auction hall had only a small entrance, and the entrance was crowded with people, all dressed in gorgeous clothes, and their eyes swept with contempt and pride at the crowd around them who were not qualified to enter. Obviously, being a part of the invitation of the Rong family auction house makes them feel very face-saving.
After patiently waiting for the previous few people to register their identities, Xu Ao walked up in two steps, and then handed the gold medal that had already been pinched in the palm of his hand to the registrant, and said respectfully: "Xu family, Xu Ao." β
Seeing the golden gold medal, the registrant's expression was stunned at first, and he was about to greet him with a smile, but when he heard Xu Ao's self-introduction, his face suddenly turned sharp as if it was sunny and cloudy, and he sat back in his place, and said indifferently: "The words of the Xu family, this gold medal is invalid." β
As he spoke, he put away the gold medal.
Hearing this, Xu Ao's breathing suddenly stagnated, and his head couldn't turn for a long time. Xu Yan's expression also changed slightly.
"What do you mean by that?" Xu Ao almost trembled as he squeezed out the words between his teeth.
Without any warning, his Xu family's invitation gold medal was invalidated. What kind of reasoning is this?
The registrant didn't even bother to roll his eyes, and smiled disdainfully: "Do you still need me to make it clear what you mean? In the past, the Rong family invited you warmly, for the sake of Xu Li's face, but now Xu Li has entered the Chiyan Realm, and he is dead. Your Xu family is not even a third-rate family, what kind of face do you have to hold our Rong family's gold medal?
Xu Ao only felt the blood churning all over his body, his fists clenched, making a creaking sound, and a faint smell of flame burning spread from the air.
"Yo, want to do it?" The registrant pointed to the word "Rong" hanging above his head, and said disapprerovingly: "Don't forget, this is the Rong family!"
Taking a deep breath of the cold air, Xu Ao forcibly suppressed the boiling anger in his heart, and as the anger subsided, a ridiculous and sad feeling followed. It's really a world where dogs look down on people!
"Let's go. Xu Ao shook his head in a low voice, turned around gloomily, and was just about to leave, but with one palm, he suddenly grabbed his arm and stopped him.
Raising his head, he met the young man's bright smile that showed his white teeth.
Looking at the young man's warm smile, Xu Ao's mood was slightly better, but then, his heart couldn't help but skip a beat. It seems that his second brother, every time he shows this abnormal smile, something big will happen.
Before he could say anything, Xu Yan had already walked up to the registrant, with a clear smile and harmless to humans and animals.
"You just said that the Xu family's invitation is invalid, right?"
The registrant rolled his eyelids impatiently and sneered, "Do you want me to say the same thing a second time?"
"Good. Xu Yan nodded lightly, then took two steps back, turned his head to look at the lively crowd behind him, and said loudly with a smile: "Everyone, as the saying goes, gold and jade are ruined on the outside, and the outside of this Rong family auction hall is magnificent, but who knows if there are any low-grade goods in it, which are used to deceive people as a faΓ§ade? What other invitation gold medals are set up, isn't this looking down on us ordinary people?"
The words and righteous words not only attracted the attention of those rich children, but even the pedestrians passing by around them also stopped one after another, probing their brains and looking at Xu Yan's position.
"Therefore, the little brother plans to make a ugly sacrifice today, temporarily open an auction booth here, and put out a few items that he thinks are good, so that everyone can choose them. β
Listening to Xu Yan's calm words, the expressions on the faces of the people around him were sluggish for a while, but then burst into laughter, faintly mixed with a little cheering. They are accustomed to judging people by their appearance, so they naturally don't think that a kid in such ordinary clothes can come up with any good things to compete with the Rongjia auction house, which has a big family?
"Hehe, are you taking out your crotch pants? maybe, there will be an aunt who likes it. The registrant also folded his arms with great interest, and the corners of his mouth were sneering with disdain.
Xu Yan ignored the attitude of these people and took out a red cloth bag from his arms, on which were carved fine and distinct lines, delicate and even, as if it was a special mark, faintly diffusing a little dark red halo, obviously not ordinary.
The laughter was reduced a bit.
Xu Yan pondered for a moment, put his palm into the cloth bag, and pounded it for a long time, and finally took out a black pill.
"This is the Black Xuandan, which is refined with the food that the first-order demonic beast green pit viper likes, and its effect is that it can control the green pit viper for three days. β
As he spoke, he took out another sharp dagger, the dagger was glowing with black light all over, and under the sun, it exuded a cold and cold color.
"This is a second-level weapon, a black blade, made of a hundred years of black iron, if it is used by a monk with a dagger battle soul, the strength it exerts will be doubled. β
"This is"
One thing after another was taken out by Xu Yan lightly. Everyone present had already stopped laughing, their pupils shrank, and the expressions on their faces slowly became serious from mockery, then became stunned, and finally opened their mouths wide, shocked. They categorically didn't expect that this seemingly joking imp really had such a strong background.
More and more people came and went, and they all rushed to pay attention to Xu Yan. There are three layers inside and three layers outside, and the water is impassable.
