Chapter 590: Chapter 587: Yun Congcong (23rd update!)
The auction house is not just for auctioning but also for buying and selling.
Although this is the auction house of Myriad Treasures Pavilion, there are also many merchants who have rented shop spaces here to trade various items.
Behind these merchants stand grand powers.
After touring around, Liuyun and Shangguan Mingxin felt their eyes couldn’t keep up.
They saw an orb containing a Red Dragon Horse, which was priced at three hundred million Spirit Stones.
They also saw a Low-Grade Holy Spirit Level weapon, not for direct sale but up for auction, starting at two billion Low-Grade Spirit Stones.
Liuyun and Shangguan Mingxin even discussed the possibility of robbing the auction house.
If they could actually pull it off, perhaps the Phoenix Sect wouldn’t need to worry about resources for the next hundred years.
Of course, that was just wishful thinking.
About three hours later, a young man finally came over.
"The three of you have been browsing here for quite a few hours, are you looking to buy something, or to sell?" The young man asked with a smile.
Shangguan Mingxin said unhappily, "You know we’ve been here for three hours? It took you three hours to come over, it seems the business of Myriad Treasures Pavilion is really booming!"
The young man immediately showed a wry smile, "It’s not that we don’t want to serve you, we’ve just been too busy lately. I apologize for any negligence."
"Seeing as you’re so sincere, I won’t hold it against you," she said.
Shangguan Mingxin pointed to the Holy Spirit-Level weapon and said, "That one..."
The young man was startled and inwardly broke into a cold sweat, sensing he almost missed a big client.
Just as he was about to reply with a forced smile, he heard Shangguan Mingxin say, "It’s too expensive, I don’t want it."
Upon hearing this, Liuyun and Su Han couldn’t help but show helpless expressions.
The young man was also taken aback, rolling his eyes inwardly, but still maintaining a smile on his face.
"And that..."
Shangguan Mingxin then glanced at the orb with the three hundred million Low-Grade Spirit Stones price tag of the Red Dragon Horse, and after a pause, she added, "We have one, we don’t need it either."
"Cough cough."
Seeing the young man’s embarrassment, Su Han coughed lightly, finally interrupting Shangguan Mingxin, and said, "I have a few items here that I plan to auction during the auction session. You can’t make the decision, bring out your Pavilion Master."
"The Pavilion Master?"
The young man was taken aback, then said, "The Pavilion Master is preoccupied with mundane affairs, overwhelmed with worries all day long. Unless it’s something very important, calling him would be..."
Before the young man could finish, suddenly there was a commotion downstairs.
"Has Miss Yun of the Yun Family arrived?"
"Haha, I had long heard that both Miss Yun sisters are extremely beautiful. Seeing them today, they truly live up to their reputation!"
Su Han and the others looked downstairs to see two women entering the hall, heading upstairs.
Both women were exceedingly beautiful and very enchanting. One of them was indeed Yun Qianqian, and the other, nearly identical to Yun Qianqian in appearance and just as beautiful in features, had an even more bewitching temperament, her slender body swaying like a snake as she moved, causing many eyes to gleam with light.
Yun Qianqian’s flirtatiousness seemed innate, but this other woman, though undeniably attractive, was heavily made-up. As she passed by, one could smell a strong fragrance even from the second floor.
Next to this woman was a man about thirty years of age walking shoulder to shoulder with her. He had a handsome and valiant appearance, wearing a longsword with a pale hilt at his waist that had gemstones encrusted, radiating dazzling light, clearly no ordinary item.
"Is it her?"
Su Han glanced at Yun Qianqian and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Good, those nine hundred million Spirit Stones should be repaid."
"And who are the other man and woman? That woman looks a bit like Yun Qianqian, and judging from their conversation, couldn’t she be the Yun Family’s young miss, Yun Congcong, whom we haven’t met before?" Shangguan Mingxin said.
"That should be her." Liuyun nodded.
"Then who is that man? Yun Congcong is the young miss of the Yun Family, yet she is holding his arm, looking all lovey-dovey. He must also be someone of high status," Shangguan Mingxin blinked her large eyes.
Liuyun snorted slightly, "That guy doesn’t seem very impressive to me."
"How so?"
Shangguan Mingxin teased, "Could it be that you’re jealous because he is handsome and his partner is beautiful?"
"Jealous of what?"
Liuyun raised an eyebrow, his gaze sweeping over Shangguan Mingxin, "You are much prettier than her."
"Go away, don’t be shameless with me here," Shangguan Mingxin’s cheeks turned red.
Su Han was standing at the top of the staircase on the second floor, listening to their banter.
Yun Qianqian was looking down, her brows slightly furrowed, lost in thought.
As for Yun Congcong and the man, they were whispering to each other, seemingly very happy.
Near the staircase, the man smiled and said to Yun Qianqian, "Qianqian, what are you thinking about? You’re not getting any younger; you can’t always focus on cultivation and business. Although you can’t get married off, you can find a live-in son-in-law. With your conditions and family background, if you really set your mind to it, you’ll probably have men lining up all over Dragon Martial City."
"Thank you for your concern, brother-in-law, but I’m not considering that at the moment," Yun Qianqian said absentmindedly.
"Cultivators indeed can maintain their appearance, but it would be a pity if you miss the best time," the man spoke again.
Yun Qianqian seemed not to hear and did not respond, her head lowered and she continued toward the upstairs.
Su Han smiled slightly, took a step forward, and stood directly in front of Yun Qianqian.
Yun Qianqian was startled, and Yun Congcong as well as the man were also taken aback.
"Who are you?" the man frowned.
Su Han did not answer, but turned to Yun Qianqian, "My lady, I’ve come to collect those nine hundred million Spirit Stones."
In front of Su Han, Yun Qianqian always referred to herself as ’my lady,’ so Su Han simply called her that.
Upon hearing Su Han’s voice, Yun Qianqian immediately came to her senses, looked up at Su Han, and joyfully said, "You’re here?"
"Mhm," Su Han nodded with a smile.
"Perfect timing. If you hadn’t come to me, I was planning to go to you."
Yun Qianqian showed a languid poise, like a little demoness, completely different from her previous distraught manner.
Yun Congcong and the man clearly felt Yun Qianqian’s change in demeanor, and Yun Congcong asked, "Qianqian, who is this?"
"Oh, this is Su Han, Sect Master of the Phoenix Sect, Su Baliu," Yun Qianqian introduced with a smile.
"You’re Su Baliu?"
Yun Congcong’s eyes brightened, and she stretched out her slender hand with a smile, "Qianqian has always been talking about you; indeed, seeing is believe."
Su Han smiled faintly and was about to shake hands when the man took hold of Su Han’s arm and looked up with a smile, "I think he is a bit overrated!"
