Even he had come, this was completely unexpected for Shang Zifeng.

This person did have some skill in his family, but it was just a little bit.

In the end, he was still just the son of a mere Master.

Even the former Shang Zifeng did not dare to take all ten thousand taels of silver, but Zhou Shucai said that he would take all ten thousand taels of silver, surpassing his current highest bid of eight thousand and five hundred taels, which was truly amazing.

As expected, when Zhou Shucai called out the price of ten thousand, no one else raised their bid.

Even if this painting was hard to find after a thousand years, it was still just a painting.

In this world where martial dao was the most respected, this was nothing at all.

It could only be said that this fellow was rich and overbearing, imitating others and feigning elegance.

In the following time, Big Red displayed many of the auctioned items to everyone.

There were sabers and swords, calligraphy and paintings, precious medicinal herbs, and even Daoist magic tools.

was not interested in any of these things.

Until today's finale appeared.

Big Red said a few lines of introduction excitedly. Then, with the cooperation of Big Yellow and Big Blue, he took that thing out from the huge curtain and put it on the auction table.

and will face the audience.

Looking at its appearance, it was just a delicate small box.

The edges were inlaid with silver stripes, with a round six ring button in the middle.

This should be a lock, and it should be an extremely difficult one at that.

"Everyone, this is the last item to be auctioned today."

Just this one box?

Everyone asked the same question.

No matter how they looked at it, they could not see any tricks hidden within this box.

"Everyone, please do not misunderstand. The item in the box is the real auction item this time. "

Big Red pointed at the box and explained.

However, Shang Zifeng's eyes were sharp, and noticed that right at the instant the box was taken out, Zhou Shubai had suddenly appeared in front of the private box's entrance, holding his order badge, and staring downwards, with a fighting stance.

"What is in it? Open it and let us see. "

Someone was the first to ask, revealing everyone's doubts.

Big Red seemed to have already guessed that someone would say this, and said, "I won't hide it from everyone, we can't open this box. Even the owner of this object could not open it. Similarly, we do not know what is inside. "

Can't open it?

Even the original owner didn't know what was inside?

Was this a joke? Was this a joke?

"If it cannot be opened, then why is it being auctioned off? If it's a rock, are we going to buy it too? "

Some people began to feel indignant.

"Young master. As you said, this is an auction. If you don't like it, you can just stop bidding. We didn't force you to buy it. "

Everyone was silent.

However, there were still people who had fantasies about this thing due to their curiosity.

As long as the price was reasonable and didn't harm his interests, he could make a bid.

Seeing that there was no longer anyone else trying to pick a fight with her, Big Red finally voiced its bottom price.

"The starting bid for this auction is one hundred thousand taels." Each increase must not be less than five thousand silver. "

BOOM!

A clap of thunder rose from the ground. Almost everyone had been struck by the thunder until they were on the verge of fainting.

They felt that the entire world had become a fantasy.

One hundred thousand taels was a sum that many people couldn't even compare with. The mood for the auction had completely vanished.

Such a crappy little box, yet he didn't even know what kind of thing was inside. Yet he was asking for such a sky-high price. This was truly the speed at which he was trying to scam others to death.

Who would be so foolish as to waste a hundred thousand taels of silver just to bid on such an item?

Unexpectedly, just as Big Red's voice fell, a fool directly called out a price. "One hundred and fifty thousand."

The crowd burst into an uproar. Everyone turned to look in the direction of the voice.

There was really a fool who wanted to bid, and the price was fifty thousand taels of silver.

He was about to ascend to the heavens!

Shang Zifeng squinted as he looked at Zhou Shucai, deep in thought.

As far as he was concerned, no one would be a real idiot.

Doing things more or less has a purpose.

Previously, this fellow had spent a large amount of money to purchase some items, but none of them had been able to make him act in such a manner.

This was a little too abnormal.

However, what made Shang Zifeng even more surprised was that his voice slowly rose amidst everyone's astonished gazes.

"Three hundred thousand!"

The young girl in the orange immortal dress actually spoke.

From the moment the girl entered the Ying Xian House, she had never called out for a bid. This was the first time she had asked for one.

And, the price was three hundred thousand taels of silver.

This was the highest bid so far.

Ye Zichen directly called out those people, who were interested in the contents of the small box, out of their minds.

Zhou Shucai looked at the young lady, surprised.

Naturally, he had paid attention to her, but he only paid attention to her appearance.

He had not expected that this girl, who was sitting quietly in the public area without any news, would become his opponent at this crucial moment.

This was beyond his expectations.

With a slight smirk, Zhou Shucai increased the bid yet again, "Three hundred and fifty thousand."

"Five hundred thousand."

The young girl unhurriedly increased the bid by another 150,000 silver.

Zhou Shucai was already sweating profusely.

This girl actually increased it by one hundred and fifty thousand.

He was determined to go against him.

In the midst of his rage, he gritted his teeth, "550,000 silver!"

"Eight hundred thousand."

The girl spoke once again without any hesitation.

The sounds of breathing sounded in succession.

Is this person crazy!?

Should he say that the two of them had gone mad!

It was just a broken box, it was not like the Poria Cocos Immortal Grass, in the blink of an eye it had already risen to an astronomical price of 800,000 silver.

This, this, this... This is too... They didn't know how to describe it.

Amongst them, there were many whose status and identity were much higher than Zhou Shucai.

However, in front of such a sky-high price, he couldn't help but retreat.

They didn't want to waste money on this.

They hadn't forgotten their purpose in coming to Tong Zhou City.

Shang Zifeng was not worried about the Poria Cocos Immortal Grass. With Huangfu Zhazha charging in front, he only needed to watch from the side and reduce the pressure on him.

But... His gaze fell back onto the small, exquisite box.

Just what was inside? How could that girl care so much about it?

Could it be that she came for this box?

And that Zhou Shucai, was he only doing it for this box?

Thinking about it this way, Shang Zifeng became even more interested in the item in the box.

However, Zhou Shucai's room was extremely silent.

Everyone glanced over, thinking that he would raise the price again.

However, after waiting for a long time, no sound came out.

It looked like that guy had given up.

Big Red waits for a while. Seeing that there is no longer any grace to raise the price, he starts counting down.

"Eight hundred thousand going once."

"800,000 silver going twice."

"Eight hundred thousand three times."

"Deal!"

With a strike of the hammer, the small box fell into the hands of the young girl.

At the same time, Shang Zifeng carried Bao Er to her and asked softly: "Bao'er, have you recovered your mana yet?"

"Yeah."

Pingbao'er nodded her head.

There was no need to ask as she knew that her father must have had something that he had to ask of her. He was extremely pleased with himself.

With a flip of her small hand, a small bunch of pink crabapple blossoms appeared where only Shang Zifeng could see them.

A faint pink light illuminated the bottom of Shang Zifeng's eyes, causing the corners of his mouth to unconsciously curve.

Little Treasure really was her little cotton-padded jacket.

Every time he encountered a sad situation, it was always resolved by this little girl he picked up along the way. She was truly a wonderful person.

"If you were to investigate the conversation of the people in the room by yourself, how long would you be invisible for?"

Shang Zifeng pointed to the direction of Zhou Shucai's private box and asked.

Pingbao'er thought about it, "Well …" Probably... About half an incense stick of time. "

"What if I bring father along?"

"Don't tell me that Daddy forgot about the last time at Ying Xian Pavilion …"

"Shh."

Shang Zifeng covered Little Treasure's mouth as he respectfully instructed, "Bao Er, remember, you are not allowed to mention the words Ying Xian Pavilion anymore."

"What about the Ying Xian House?"

Little Treasure snickered.

"This... This... Cough cough. If there is anything in the future that requires us to mention Ying Xian Pavilion, we shall use Ying Xian House as a substitute. "

Ying Xian House, Ying Xian Pavilion, Ying Xian Inn.

Any one of them could be considered a top-notch existence in the Tong Zhou City. Who exactly were the masters behind these three places?

Shang Zifeng could not help but imagine.

However, he quickly came back to his senses.

What had happened to him?

had somehow distracted him.

This little girl was really mischievous.

Shang Zifeng couldn't help but glance at her, making him feel a little awkward.

To be honest, he really didn't trust her to act alone.

He had to deny that even though Pang Bao'er's strength was above his, her intelligence was still shallow. Furthermore, she sometimes did things without regard for the consequences.

Although Pang Bao'er's cultivation relied on her life's essence to support it, once she used invisibility, it was theoretically difficult for martial arts cultivators to discover her.

However, that didn't mean something unexpected happened.

With a single glance, he could see that there were no signs of Xuan Qi fluctuations surrounding him. He was unable to see through the cultivation levels of others, but the overwhelming fear still made him unable to breathe.

If there was a high level cultivator guarding Zhou Shucai's room, and he still allowed Bao Er to peep into it, once an accident occurred, Little Treasure's safety would be at stake.

Therefore, he must be prepared.

He did not want his little darling to be in danger.

After pondering for a moment, Shang Zifeng still rejected the idea of letting Li Bao Er probe on his own.

"I'll go with you."

Even if he couldn't hide for long, it didn't matter.

He just wanted to see who else was in the box.

Shang Zifeng had a nagging feeling that someone was controlling him from behind.

Based on Zhou Shucai's personality, that box was something that he had to obtain.

Without even thinking about it, one could already guess that this fellow was definitely plotting something against the young girl.

Right now, he had nothing else to do, so it would be good to find out what was going on.

And he wanted to know the secret of the box.

He had a strange feeling in his heart that the contents of the box belonged to him.

This feeling was very subtle, but he could not ignore it.
