"Why are you waiting for me here?" Yang Kai asked while looking at his buddy.
The man said: "It was like this, I'm waiting for Pill Master Yang here on the order of the Treasurer. The Treasurer said that he would like to invite Pill Master Yang to go to the auction together."
"Auction?" Yang Kai raised his brows, and suddenly remembered that Kang Siran had actually mentioned this to him a few days ago, saying that this time the martial artist of Maplewoods City got a lot of good things in the Five Colors Treasure Tower, so the city lord Duan Yuanshan was thinking of organizing an Auction to let everyone get what they need.
It's just that Yang Kai didn't have much interest in this. He didn't show the intention to go, but didn't expect Kang Siran to send someone to invite him.
This time He got a lot of source crystals and good things from the Lu family, and Yang Kai now has a lot of money, so it doesn't hurt to check it out.
Thinking of this, Yang Kai said: "What good stuff does this auction have? Treasurer Kang is so obsessed with it, did he know something?"
The guy smiled mysteriously, looked around for a while, and leaned in front of Yang Kai and said in a low voice: "The Treasurer said that Principle Source Fruit will appear at this auction."
"Really?" Yang Kai was extremely surprised.
"Yes! That's why Treasurer Kang is so interested in this auction, and He also want to invite Pill Master Yang to join him to gather funds and snatch the Principle Source Fruit together."
"I understand." Yang Kai nodded.
In addition, the Treasurer also said that among the auction items this time, there is an ancient Pill Furnace, which is at least a Principle Source Grade low-rank. If Pill Master Yang can get this Pill Furnace, the chance of success in Pill Refining in the future will increase, and this ancient Pill Furnace is very attractive to Alchemist."
"I am somewhat interested in this." Yang Kai smiled slightly, "Well, where will the auction be? When will it start?"
The guy smiled and said: "It will start at noon today. I have been waiting for Pill Master Yang for two days. If you don't come back, I'm afraid you will miss it."
"So it seems that I came back at just the right time, you can go back and tell the Treasurer Kang. I will clean up here, and go find him immediately."
"Yes!" the guy answered, and immediately retreated.
Although the two people didn't speak loudly, Zhang Ruoxi, who was curious and watching nearby, heard a lot, and waited until the man left. She looked at Yang Kai with astonishment on her face and said, "Mister, are you an Alchemist?"
Yang Kai said hesitantly: "I just dabble with it a litte, let's not talk about it for now."
After talking. Yang Kai opened the Cave House Restriction. Then took Zhang Ruoxi into it.
The Cave House he rented in Maplewoods City was not the best, but it was not bad either. There are several rooms in the cave, and the area is relatively large. Yang Kai assigned Zhang Ruoxi a room to live in the future.
He gave her the token of the Cave House, and taught her some methods to open and close the restirction, telling her that anyone besides her should not open the Cave House here.
Zhang Ruoxi naturally nodded and said yes.
"If you are bored, you can go out for a walk. The public security in Maplewoods City is still good, but don't go to the black market. The place is rather chaotic. It will be very dangerous." Yang Kai exhorted again.
"Ruoxi won't go anywhere, Ruoxi will wait for Mister to come back here." Zhang Ruoxi said softly.
"It's up to you, then you just rest first, I'll go out." After Yang Kai gave a command, he went straight away.
Zhang Ruoxi sent him off from behind.
After Yang Kai left, Zhang Ruoxi began to look around the cave, and found that although the cave was tidy, it was also very crude. After thinking about it, it would be the place where she would live in the future, so she considered how to transform it.
After thinking about it for a long time, Zhang Ruoxi suddenly pursed her mouth and smiled. She already had some ideas, and immediately began to take out some things from the space ring and arrange them.
...
When Yang Kai entered the Spirit Pill Workshop, someone immediately notified Kang Siran.
Not long after, Kang Siran stepped out of it and enthusiastically held Yang Kai's arm and said, "Pill Master Yang, you came. If you don't show up, I'm afraid you will miss this auction. Let's go, the time is running out, it's important that we go to the City Lord's Mansion as soon as possible."
"Is the Auction in the City Lord's Mansion?" Yang Kai asked in shock.
"Naturally, it is. After all, this time Auction is organized by the City Lord himself. The place is naturally located in the City Lord's Mansion. I will tell you on the way what good things will appear."
Walking with Kang Siran all the way to the city lord's mansion, Yang Kai learned that after hearing the inside information he inquired about, after the martial artist of Maplewoods City entered the Five Colors Treasure Tower this time. Although there were heavy casualties, some people really got good things.
Needless to say, Principle Source Fruit will definitely become the final auction item.
There will also be several Principle Source Grade Artifact, and it has been heard that Principle Source Stage experts from many nearby forces have come to participate in the auction.
In addition, there are some Spirit Pills, Cultivation Techniques and secret techniques.
In short, this auction is unprecedentedly grand, and the martial artist of Maplewoods City are looking forward to it, but it is conditional to participate in the auction. After all, there are so many martial artist in Maplewoods City, and the City Lord’s Mansion cannot accommodate so many people.
If you want to enter the auction, there are only two kinds of people who can enter freely except for those with the invitation from the City Lord's Mansion.
One is the martial artist above the Void King Realm, and the second is the martial artist with strong financial resources, otherwise they will not be allowed to enter the auction floor.
As the treasurer of Spirit Pill Workshop, Kang Siran often dealt with the city lord's mansion, and naturally he had received the invitation card. His invitation card could bring one person into the auction, so Yang Kai did not need to be checked for cultivation level or financial resources.
"Heavenly Martial Holy Land has placed three Principle Source Fruits in the Five Colors Treasure Tower this time, and one will appear at the auction. I don't know who get the remaining two." Kang Siran has been grumbling about Principle Source Fruit. He was very annoyed that there was no such opportunity in the Five Colors Treasure Tower, and now he has to compete with others for this Principle Source Fruit, he has brought almost all of his savings with him, ready to fight hard for it.
But he also knows that he has no hope. After all, although he is the Treasurer of Spirit Pill Workshop, how can his financial resources be compared with those people from the Sect? If he represents the Violet Source Chamber of Commerce and can get the support of the Chamber of Commerce, then the situation is completely different. But in a short time, where can he get the capital help from the Violet Source Chamber of Commerce?
Hearing what he said, Yang Kai sniffed, but didn't say anything about it.
After all, one of the Principle Source Fruit is in his own Space Ring, that's the case, didn't know in whose hand the third Principle Source Fruit is at.
The two talked while walking, and soon came to the City Lord's Mansion.
In front of the city lord’s mansion, the crowd was bustling, one after another, and many martial artist were rushing inward. The guards of Maplewoods City were trying to maintain order. From time to time, people flew from high in the sky, screaming at those who wanted to cut in the line.
"3rd-order Void Return Stage also wants to participate in the auction? Go back and cultivate for a few more years, what? You have a source crystal? Let me see, hundreds of thousands of source crystals are also called source crystals? Get out!" The scolding voice was obviously because there was an unqualified martial artist who wanted to pass the inpection, but was caught by the guards and send away, with a sullen face.
"1st-order Void King Realm, barely have the qualifications, this friend please..."
"Why a 3rd-order Saint King like you come to join in the fun? Believe it or not, I will slap you to death. Hey, You brought a million source crystals. Say it earlier, you can enter."
The guards are also very busy. Seeing that the auction is about to start, there are still countless martial artist who want to enter the auction floor, so they have to work harder.
"Ah, it's Treasurer Kang."
Kang Siran and Yang Kai squeezed in the crowd for a long time before they came to a guard of the City Lord's Mansion. The person recognized Kang Siran at once and put on a smiling face.
"Treasurer Kang, you have to follow the rules this time. You should have an invitation?"
"Naturally there is." Kang Siran smiled slightly, and under the envy and hatred eyes of many martial artist nearby, he took out an invitation card and handed it to the guard.
The guard took it, verified that it was correct, and smiled: "Okay, Treasurer Kang, please come in. You only need to show the invitation card when you enter, and someone will come to greet you."
"Thank you, by the way, Kang wants to take this friend in, no problem?" Kang Siran pointed his finger at Yang Kai.
"According to the rules, there is no problem." The guard just glanced at Yang Kai and let him go.
Kang Siran nodded, and Yang Kai jumped out of the crowd, and couldn't help exhaling.
"Let's go, the auction will begin soon." As Kang Siran spoke, the pace accelerated a lot.
After a while, the two entered the City Lord's Mansion. After Kang Siran showed the invitation, a maidservant led them to a private room numbered B-9.
For this number, Kang Siran seemed a little surprised. After all, he is considered to be a person with a face in Maplewoods City. Although his cultivation level is not too strong, he is covered with a halo of the Violet Source Chamber of Commerce. Even the city lord Duan Yuanshan dare not look down.
But now, he was only assigned to the private room on the B Block. It can be seen that the rooms numbered in the front have people who are stronger than him or have a larger background.
Realizing this, Kang Siran couldn't help frowning, feeling a little uncomfortable.
The auction site was temporarily remodeled using a large hall in the City Lord’s Mansion. The area was quite large. The hall below was densely packed with people. Yang Kai scanned it roughly and felt that there were at least thousands of people. Above, there are hundreds of private rooms.
That's it, there are still many people who have not been able to enter. If it weren't for Kang Siran blessing, even if they could come in, there would be no place to stay.
At this moment, the hall was full of noise, and countless people were whispering in groups and talking, and the auction had obviously not started yet.
Only in those hundred private rooms, there was a quiet place, and there was no sound. The martial artist swept their gazes at the Private Room from below, and they all looked envious.
"Sit down." As Kang Siran spoke, he had found a place to sit down.
Yang Kai also sat down peacefully. At any rate, he has participated in several auctions. Although it was the first time in the Star Boundary, he felt that they were all the same, not much different.
