Chapter 598: The family master sends greetings to King Yan!

Su Yu sat on the luxurious sofa made of animal hide, and his whole body let out a comfortable, relaxed sound.

It must be said, as the Bai family's prince, the treatment is really not bad.

Moreover, Su Yu observed the entire auction house.

In this auction house, only three rooms could have such treatment.

The rest were just ordinary rooms, and the most direct position below.

Put simply, besides the rooms, everyone else could only stand and watch this auction.

Yet even so, in just a minute or two, the open area below was already filled with crowds.

It shows how popular the Bai family's auction is.

In the past, treasures that could not be seen could easily be seen at the Bai family's auction.

Soon, an old man with white hair slowly walked onto the auction stage.

The old man's face bore a faint smile, he wore a green robe, and on the chest of the robe was conspicuously written a "Bai" character.

His appearance caused the entire dark crowd to quiet down one after another.

Gazes fell upon this old man before them.

"Greetings, everyone, I am the auctioneer of this auction; if there are any shortcomings, please forgive me!"

The old man smiled and cupped his hands toward the crowd.

Below, someone laughed and said.

"Old Wang, hurry up and start!"

"Yeah, I can't wait to see what good stuff this Bai family auction has!"

It's obvious that everyone knows the identity of this old man before them.

Bai Lie also, at this time, explained to Su Yu.

"Old Wang is one of the more senior auctioneers in our Bai family, having presided over many auctions, with considerable fame."

Su Yu nodded.

Although he wasn't very clear about the ways of commerce, Su Yu also knew that a good auctioneer could raise the prices of some items.

Thus, the organizer could also obtain a better commission.

"If that's the case, I won't waste words, let's start directly!"

Old Wang waved his hand, and immediately several well-built girls slowly pushed a wooden box forward.

Placed it on the auction stage.

Old Wang smiled slightly, and amid the eager gazes of the crowd, opened the wooden box.

The next moment, a dark red medicinal pill appeared in everyone's sight.

At this time, Old Wang's voice sounded appropriately.

"Creation Pill: It can greatly increase the cultivation speed of those strong in the Law Realm, and also has some effect on those strong in the Venerable Realm; the starting bid is one Heart of Law!"

As Old Wang's voice fell, voices immediately rose from below.

"Two!"

"Three!"

"Four!"

"Twelve!"

Soon, the price of the Creation Pill was directly driven up to twelve Hearts of Law.

Su Yu looked at that Creation Pill and slightly shook his head.

After all, it's still an auction, so prices will be somewhat inflated.

Generally speaking, the price of one Creation Pill is around ten Hearts of Law.

But this thing is relatively hard to buy.

For those strong in the Law Realm, it is the most suitable thing for cultivation, being several times or even ten times better than the Heart of Law!

However, in less than a minute, it reached twelve.

Finally, a big man took it away at a price of thirteen.

Afterwards, one item after another was brought up by the Bai family's people.

After watching for a while, Su Yu lost interest.

The early items, for Su Yu, were mostly rather ordinary.

Perhaps a few items could stir the heart of a Venerable.

But given Su Yu's vision, naturally he wouldn't look at them.

Not only Su Yu, among those early items, the best one merely attracted the attention of a guest in an ordinary room.

Like Su Yu, those sitting in the most prestigious rooms had no reaction at all.

Now, Su Yu's only thought is to wait quietly.

Waiting for the Soul-Returning Herb to appear.

With the passage of time, the auction gradually reached its climax.

Old Wang's smile became even more intense.

Likewise, a wooden box was pushed out.

Old Wang's face showed a hint of mystery, and amid the eager gazes of everyone, he slowly spoke.

"Everyone, this thing is truly extraordinary!"

"What extraordinary thing, Old Wang, tell us quickly!"

Someone said urgently.

Old Wang didn't keep secrets either; he gave a light smile and, under everyone's gaze, opened the wooden box.

All that could be seen was a cyan inner dan quietly hovering inside the wooden box.

Within that cyan inner dan, a cyan giant dragon seemed to be visible, coiling inside, its aura extremely robust.

Su Yu's gaze was instantly drawn to this cyan inner dan.

Because Su Yu sensed a hint of familiar aura within that inner dan.

Not only Su Yu, but Xiao Qing Long, which had been constantly circling in Su Yu's pocket, was not asleep either; it crawled out from Su Yu's pocket.

Xiao Qing Long's eyes remained fixed on that cyan inner dan, emitting an urgent sound.

"Ang ang ang!!!"

Xiao Qing Long's gaze carried a hint of fervor.

It seemed that this inner dan had a great effect for him.

Su Yu wasn't in a hurry; he simply rubbed Xiao Qing Long's head and said lightly, "Don't worry, I'll give it to you."

"Just... the Bai Family has this thing..."

Su Yu couldn't help but look toward Bai Lie.

Even Bai Lie's eyes held a hint of doubt; sensing Su Yu's gaze, Bai Lie shook his head.

"I don't know about this thing; logically, no one in the Central Immortal Realm should dare to act against that race!"

Bai Lie's gaze grew slightly heavy.

Even the crowd below, upon seeing that cyan inner dan, all fell silent.

Old Wang seemed to have anticipated this situation long ago, speaking calmly.

"I'm sure you've all seen that this inner dan was, in fact, taken from the body of a Venerable-level Azure Dragon."

"For spirit beasts, it has an enormous effect, even able to cleanse the bloodline, raise the bloodline grade, thereby allowing them to reach higher levels."

"Even for the Human Race, after consuming this inner dan, one can absorb its energy, strengthen one's cultivation, and even... the physical body!"

"The starting bid for this Azure Dragon inner dan... is one hundred Hearts of Law!"

Old Wang's voice fell.

This time, surprisingly, no one began bidding.

The crowd murmured, becoming slightly restless.

Someone asked.

"Old Wang, this is an Azure Dragon inner dan—who doesn't know the Dragon Clan is most protective of its own, let alone an Azure Dragon from the Dragon Clan? If the Dragon Clan found out, even if it were bought, they'd incur the Dragon Clan's wrath; this thing isn't something you can just buy!"

"Indeed, spending a bit of money to buy it back would still offend the Dragon Clan—who in the Central Immortal Realm would dare?"

For a moment, everyone began to voice their displeasure.

Old Wang gave a slight smile and said, "You can all rest assured; since the Bai Family dares to take this out and put it in the auction, it is naturally obtained through legitimate channels."

"The owner of this inner dan, while alive, encountered a crisis and was finally rescued by a strong cultivator of the Bai Family; unfortunately, that Azure Dragon eventually passed away, but it bequeathed its inner dan."

"Moreover, it has received the Dragon Clan's acknowledgment; even if taken out for auction, the Dragon Clan will say nothing."

Old Wang's words made some people's eyes light up.

"As long as the Dragon Clan's acknowledgment is obtained, it means that buying this inner dan will not provoke the Dragon Clan's wrath."

In that moment, many hearts began to burn with fervor.

Dragon Clan inner dan!

Although it is merely a Venerable-level Dragon Clan inner dan, the bloodline power hidden within it can enable some spirit beasts to evolve.

You see, in some major powers, more or less, they have cultivated some spirit beasts.

But the bloodline power of ordinary spirit beasts is not as strong as that of the Dragon Clan.

But once one consumes a Dragon Clan inner dan, perhaps they could evolve, thereby reaching a higher realm.

For many powers, if they could cultivate a powerful spirit beast, it would bring great benefits to the entire power.

Not only the crowd below, but even some presences in the rooms began to clench their fists in anticipation.

"One thousand Hearts of Law, the Heaven Origin Gate claims them!"

In an ordinary room, a faint voice sounded.

"Heaven Origin Gate? Isn't that a second-rate sect under the Great Wei Dynasty? Rumor has it they have a half-step Imperial Realm expert holding the fort!"

In the crowd, someone who knew the Heaven Origin Gate's background couldn't help but say.

"Hmph, when did the Heaven Origin Gate become so domineering? One thousand two hundred Hearts of Law, the Overlord Blade Gate claims them!"

A gruff voice likewise sounded, showing no fear of the Heaven Origin Gate.

"One thousand five hundred!"

"One thousand six hundred!"

"Two thousand!"

The Heaven Origin Gate representative's voice grew somewhat sharp.

Obviously, there was some dissatisfaction with the Overlord Blade Gate's incessant meddling.

The Overlord Blade Gate representative chuckled, "Two thousand is a bit pricey; forget it, I'll let you Heaven Origin Gate have it cheap."

Having said that, he fell silent.

The Heaven Origin Gate representative also breathed a sigh of relief; if this continued, they wouldn't be able to produce more Hearts of Law, after all they needed to save some for preparing later items.

On the auction stage, Old Wang's brow furrowed slightly.

If it's only two thousand Hearts of Law, that would be a loss.

In Old Wang's mind, this should at least reach a price of ten thousand.

But fortunately, the Overlord Blade Gate people didn't intervene.

However, a light and airy voice rang out from inside a luxurious private booth.

Five thousand Hearts of Law!

Upon hearing this, the expression of that person from the Heavenly Origin Sect darkened slightly.

He glanced at the location of the luxurious private booth, but quickly withdrew his gaze.

Although the Heavenly Origin Sect had a half-step Emperor realm expert holding the fort, she also knew that not just anyone could enter those luxurious private booths.

Nor could the Heavenly Origin Sect afford to provoke them.

As that voice sounded, the entire auction hall seemed to fall silent, with no one daring to speak.

Old Wang wryly smiled in his heart; although it had doubled, for the White Family it was still a loss.

Five thousand, first call!

Five thousand, second call!

Five thousand...

Six thousand!

At that moment, another voice sounded from yet another luxurious private booth.

Su Yu stood before the glass, silently gazing down at Old Wang.

That six thousand just now was none other than Su Yu speaking.

Old Wang looked toward the direction the voice came from, slightly startled.

As the White Family's auctioneer, he naturally knew who was seated in that room.

And in another private booth, a youth with a sullen complexion sat cross-legged on the sofa, quietly.

Behind the youth, an old man in hemp clothing hunched his back, standing silently to the side, his whole person seeming to hide in the shadows, unnoticed by anyone.

Interesting, someone actually dares to snatch what I've taken a liking to!

A cold smile formed on the youth's face.

The youth slowly rose to his feet and spoke lightly.

Seven thousand Hearts of Law, I, Han Jue, will take them!

His voice wasn't loud, yet the entire auction hall could hear it clearly.

Han Jue? Why does that name sound so familiar?

Hiss, Han Jue? Could it be that person?

Who is it?

The crowd grew somewhat curious.

They were somewhat familiar with the name Han Jue, but for a moment couldn't recall who he was.

Oh, I remember now!

One person exclaimed.

Isn't he the grandson of a King Yama of the Nine Netherworld Purgatory?

Hiss, the Nine Kings Yama of the Nine Netherworld Purgatory are the nine most powerful Emperor realm experts there; this person actually being a King Yama's grandson explains why he can sit in a luxurious private booth.

Upon hearing Han Jue's voice, everyone couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.

Han Jue stood in the private booth, a smile playing at the corner of his mouth.

Every time, as long as he revealed his identity, he could easily accomplish anything.

He had never failed after repeated attempts.

Even those of comparable status would give him face.

Unless he encountered a hotheaded youth.

In Han Jue's view, as long as he leaked his reputation, he would surely obtain this Azure Dragon inner core this time.

But immediately, Han Jue's face turned stiff.

Eight thousand!

Su Yu's light and airy voice sounded.

Han Jue's expression darkened as he gazed toward Su Yu's private booth, and a grim voice sounded.

Which friend in the private booth, not knowing where you're from, dares to oppose me, Han Jue?

Han Jue said with a hint of threat.

On the auction stage, Old Wang's brows furrowed slightly.

Threatening my young master?

Just a King Yama's grandson, that's a bit too arrogant.

Perhaps the White Family of the Nine Netherworld Purgatory wouldn't dare offend him, but if it were merely a King Yama...

the White Family really wouldn't take him seriously!

Before Old Wang could even speak,

Su Yu's voice continued to ring out.

Blade-Wielding Hall, Su Yu!

If you insist on comparing statuses...

Su Yu's voice paused.

My master is the Azure Dragon Saint, my senior brother is the Deputy Hall Master of the Blade-Wielding Hall!

I, on behalf of my master and senior brother, send greetings to the King Yama of the Nine Netherworld Purgatory!
