The corners of Qin Wentian’s mouth twitched as he mocked him, “Did you hear that, second brother Jiang? The fairy told you to get out of the way, are you deaf?”
Jiang Yuncheng’s face flushed red. “Why did you interrupt the fairy when she was talking to me? Do you have anything to do with this?!”
“Yo, how did you know that the fairy was talking to you? She didn’t even look you in the eye, and you are still saying that the fairy was talking to you!”
“Then make way! Haven’t you heard that a good dog doesn’t block the path?!”
“Second brother Jiang, who are you calling a dog?!”
“I’m not calling out anyone in particular! You’re thinking too much!”
“You!”
The two of them fought intensely. Suddenly, from the corner of their eyes, they noticed that Li Tongzhou’s expression was getting worse and worse. They couldn’t help but narrow their eyes at the same time.
They stared at each other.
Both of them took two steps back.
Qin Wentian coldly snorted, “Since the fairy is here today, I won’t argue with you.”
Jiang Yuncheng laughed sinisterly. “Hehe, if not for this, you would already be lying on the ground.”
Li Tongzhou’s countenance was cold as he entered the auction hall.
Fang Yuan, who was at the side, cupped his fists and smiled at the two of them.
“My younger sister has always had a bad temper. Please forgive her.”
He couldn’t just watch helplessly as Li Tongzhou offended someone, plus they were prodigies.
The eyes of the two of them brightened.
Brother-in-law!
“No worries.”
Jiang Yuncheng’s expression changed, as a smile appeared on his face. “Fellow Daoist, where are you from? I, Jiang Yuncheng, like to make good friends. We will be just like old friends. I really want to get to know you.”
“Bullshit!” Qin Wentian coldly snorted, not giving Jiang Yuncheng any face at all. “Second brother Jiang, why didn’t I know that you like to make friends? You only want to chase after the fairy. Why are you pretending?”
Fang Yuan didn’t want to get involved in the feud between the two of them. He directly replied, “It’s not that I don’t want to tell you, it’s just that before we left, my father always warned us not to provoke outsiders. Father’s orders are hard to disobey. I’m sorry.”
After speaking, he also stepped into the auction hall.
Jiang Yuncheng’s expression instantly fell as he turned his head to look at Qin Wentian.
“Surnamed Qin, it’s my fault for what happened. In this auction, other than that item, I’ll bid for the rest as an apology. How about it?”
Qin Wentian only laughed coldly, “Hehe, are you going to tell me to withdraw from this auction?”
Jiang Yuncheng nodded his head as though it was only right. “I’ll give you everything. It’s naturally not important whether you participate in the auction or not.”
“What if I tell you that I won’t fight for that item anymore, but there’s a condition. Don’t fight with me for that fairy. How about it?” Qin Wentian suddenly asked.
“Dream on!” Jiang Yuncheng raised his hand and slowly clenched his fist, “I want both the fairy and that item!”
“In that case, there’s no room for negotiation.” Qin Wentian already knew that this was the answer. He coldly replied, “Let’s see how capable you are!”
“Bring it on!”
The two of them walked into the auction hall with cold expressions.
...
The interior of the auction hall was very large. It was a cylindrical structure and the auction seats were arranged in a circle. From high to low, there were a total of ten rows, which could accommodate many people.
Currently, there were no empty seats.
Even though the auction was in the warm-up stage, the seats were all occupied.
Fang Yuan had already found his seat and sat down.
Nearly a thousand people in the hall were discussing animatedly, causing a commotion.
Suddenly, there was a commotion at the entrance.
“Look, that is the young master of the Qilian Sect, Jiang Yuncheng!”
“Liuyun Sect’s Qin Wentian is also here. If these two sworn enemies are here, there will be a good show to watch today.”
Fang Yuan turned his gaze towards the source of the voices. As expected, it was the two Gu masters he had just bumped into.
Many Gu masters who were near the entrance hurriedly stepped forward, greeting them as they tried to get acquainted with them.
Jiang Yuncheng expressionlessly pushed aside the crowd, completely ignoring them.
On the other hand, a faint smile appeared on Qin Wentian’s face as he calmly dealt with the situation.
Finally, under the gazes of the crowd, they each entered their own private rooms.
In a room high up in the air, two figures soon appeared.
Their gazes swept over the crowd, as though they were looking for someone.
The crowd in the auction hall calmed down.
But not long after, there was another commotion.
“It’s Senior Zhao from the Gu Immortal Sect!”
“Bai Yao from the Gu Devil sect is here as well!”
“How beautiful...”
“That fairy earlier was also born extraordinary. Today has truly broadened my horizons.”
“Oh my god, doesn’t this mean that all the great sects have sent people to this auction today? Could it be that other than that Gold quality Gu worm, there is also a rare secret Gu?”
Everyone was discussing.
Unfortunately, this auction kept its secret very well, so ordinary clans and even sect Gu masters could not get any information, and they could only make wild guesses.
Fang Yuan saw his first senior entering a private room and hesitated whether he should go up and talk to him.
But on second thought, since the auction was going to be held for three days, he could ask him about things if he wanted to anytime. There was no rush.
Thus, Fang Yuan patiently sat down and waited for the auction to proceed.
“Can you exchange seats with me?”
Li Tongzhou, who appeared out of nowhere, asked a Gu master beside Fang Yuan.
That person was stunned at first, but when he saw this beautiful woman in a light yellow dress smiling at him, he could not help but agree.
“Sure… sure, fairy has a request. I am willing to fulfill it.”
Saying so, he exchanged tokens with Li Tongzhou and happily ran to find a seat, muttering, “The fairy actually took the initiative to talk to me, I am really lucky, why don’t I go bet two stones later, I will have good luck...”
Fang Yuan couldn’t help but be speechless when he heard this. He glanced at Li Tongzhou who was enjoying himself.
He moved a chair a few meters away and placed it next to Fang Yuan. Then, he sat down next to him.
“This is comfortable!”
Li Tongzhou was intoxicated, “So there are so many benefits to being a fairy. Everyone follows your whims. Senior, you don’t know how many people came to greet me just now. The two that I met at the door even sent someone to invite me to sit with them in the VIP seats.”
“Don’t go overboard.” Fang Yuan glanced at him. “Those two are core disciples of large sects, top ten on the Prodigy Roll.”
Li Tongzhou pursed his lips indifferently. “What does that matter? They don’t know me anyway. After we leave this auction venue, who will know where I, the fairy, went.”
“Very reasonable.”
Fang Yuan gave a thumbs up and stopped persuading him.
Soon, the auction officially began.
A middle-aged Gu master hosted the venue, using the amplification Gu to exchange some pleasantries before revealing the first item.
