Chapter 811: Auction of the Evil Corpse

The steward went up to the platform to announce the results. He also gave Wu Qingcheng and Yu Er two hours to prepare, then directly leave with them.

All those who came to participate in the recruitment selection had already made mental preparations. They had all brought the needed things in advance.

Once selected, they only had two hours to say goodbye to their families, then they would follow the great sect's elder back to the sect.

Wu Qingcheng and Yu Er had also long been prepared. During those two hours, they sat together with Ye Liuyun and the others, watching the upcoming selection while chatting and saying goodbye.

Before leaving, Wu Qingcheng even placed Su Miaoyin's hand into Ye Liuyun's hand.

"Miaoyin will also participate in the selection in two days. These two nights you should go keep her company too! She is also your woman, don't neglect her!"

Wu Qingcheng specifically instructed Ye Liuyun, making Su Miaoyin blush and dare not raise her head.

Ye Liuyun also agreed in the end. He felt that since Su Miaoyin was already his woman, he might as well use this opportunity to break down the barriers between them, so Su Miaoyin wouldn't feel neglected.

After seeing Wu Qingcheng and Yu Er leave with the Ice Heart Palace's elder, Ye Liuyun no longer had the heart to watch the selection; he directly returned to his residence and went into the Xuan Kong Shi to cultivate.

However, he remembered Wu Qingcheng's words and occasionally came out to keep Su Miaoyin company.

His relationship with Su Miaoyin had improved a lot. They could talk without many taboos, communicate freely, and finally had the air of a family.

Two days later, Su Miaoyin was also selected by the Ancient Music Sect due to her bloodline and musical talent, and she left Ye Liuyun reluctantly.

Afterward, Ru Yue also got her wish and went to Star Moon Valley.

Even Fu Qinglian, Luo Yurou, the little beggar, Qian Mo Sect disciples, and others found suitable sects and left one after another to go cultivate in their sects.

Now Ye Liuyun only has a few monster beast companions left, and these monster beasts are all in deep sleep, raising their realms.

He did not disturb them, and continued cultivating inside the Xuan Kong Shi.

As the people around him were sent away one by one, his mood became very low. Suddenly having no one to talk to, he felt even more unaccustomed.

Only Qiong Qi often went out to wander, gathering information and collecting resources everywhere.

That day, he mysteriously pulled Ye Liuyun and wanted to take him to participate in an auction.

"Cultivation also needs balance. Recently there is an auction in the prefectural city; go with me to have a look—maybe we'll find something good!"

"You wouldn't be wanting to buy something, would you? Just say it directly; I'll give you spirit stones for you to buy it yourself—don't drag me along!"

Ye Liuyun originally didn't want to move, but in the end he couldn't resist Qiong Qi's soft and hard persuasion, and was still dragged out by him.

"What did you take a liking to?" Ye Liuyun asked Qiong Qi on the way.

He didn't believe Qiong Qi would bring him to an auction just to let him relax.

Surely there must be something Qiong Qi fancied at this auction!

"Hehe, I recently heard that the Lie Mo Sect sent a batch of venerable-rank alien evil corpses to the auction here. So I wanted to find you to use your Golden Pupil to see if those alien evil corpses have anything unusual."

"Venerable-rank alien evil corpses?" Ye Liuyun was also shocked upon hearing that.

"Yes, that's why I came to find you. Only your Golden Pupil can see the true situation." Qiong Qi explained.

"Where did the Lie Mo Sect get so many alien evil corpses?" Ye Liuyun asked, puzzled.

"It is said they dug them out when they occupied other sects. But I think these alien evil corpses were deliberately released by them. Perhaps they want to use others' hands to revive these alien evils." Qiong Qi speculated.

"If that's true, then hasn't the Lie Mo Sect already defected to the alien evils?" Ye Liuyun stopped and said.

"So what can you do? Do you now have the strength to wipe them out?" Qiong Qi continued walking forward, indifferent.

Ye Liuyun immediately caught up and asked: "Where did you get this news?"

"When Fu Qinglian participated in the recruitment selection, she was spotted by a spy from the Lie Mo Sect. I dealt with that spy and also searched his soul, obtaining this information. At that time they were transporting a batch of alien evil corpses to the chamber of commerce."

"So that's it!" Ye Liuyun nodded, then suddenly asked: "You also know how to search souls?"

Qiong Qi hehe laughed: "Hehe, of course. You thought only you could search souls? My method is just a bit more brutal—now that spy has become an idiot!"

Ye Liuyun gave him a sideways glance and asked: "So you've already checked those alien evil corpses?"

Qiong Qi sighed: "Yeah. But I found nothing! You know, alien evil corpses can also be used by demon cultivators for cultivation—why would the Lie Mo Sect put them up for auction? And they're all venerable-rank alien evils!"

"Hmm, indeed suspicious. Let's go take a look first!"

Ye Liuyun also felt the Lie Mo Sect's actions were abnormal, so he proactively followed Qiong Qi and rushed to the auction.

At the auction entrance, they saw the auction items list for this auction.

This auction has six perfectly preserved venerable-rank alien evil artifact corpses up for bidding.

At the same time, several divine artifacts are also being auctioned.

Therefore, many people were attracted to this auction.

Ye Liuyun and Qiong Qi wanted to book a private room, but the steward told them that all private rooms had been bought out by the Chang Family's Second Young Master, Chang Wanshan, who said he was entertaining Princess Liang Xinyu.

Left with no choice, they could only sit in the main hall to participate in the auction.

Ye Liuyun didn't mind, but Qiong Qi complained: "That Chang Wanshan is definitely a prodigal! To splash out so much just to chase a girl!"

Ye Liuyun just smiled and didn't pay much attention to his words.

They arrived late and didn't really expect to get a private room anyway; sitting in the main hall for the auction was fine.

But around them, many people voiced dissatisfaction, feeling that Chang Wanshan's behavior was excessive.

"To buy out all private rooms just for one person—do they still have anyone else in mind?"

"With so many private rooms, can a prefectural princess even fit in one?"

"Exactly, the organizers don't care either, letting a junior run wild…"

Qiong Qi proudly said to Ye Liuyun: "See? Not just me has objections—later I'll take the chance to cause some trouble for this kid!"

Ye Liuyun reminded him: "You'd better stay out of trouble—first get the main business done!"

"Don't worry! I won't delay things—I'm just going to add a bit of obstruction. He's rich, right? I'll just make him spend a bit more!"

Ye Liuyun secretly laughed, estimating that Chang Wanshan was due for some bad luck!
