Ganwu Auction

The rumors had not been exaggerated.

If anything, reality was even more frightening than the rumors.

The two steadied themselves, their expressions becoming several degrees more respectful.

"Mr. Qian Yu."

The tall man spoke first. He bowed slightly and handed over a silver Space Ring.

"These are all the supplies you ordered a year ago. Everything is inside this ring. Please inspect them."

Qian Yu accepted the ring and nodded slightly.

World Force flowed into it.

The space inside the ring was enormous, with all manner of items sorted into categories. An F9-Class Cosmic Ship floated silently in one corner.

Two sets of Immortal-Level Battle Armor gleamed with flowing dark-golden light.

Two Immortal-Level Battle Blades lay nearby, their long blades sharp and exposed. A Large Detector and a Precision Small Detector rested quietly beside the Cosmic Crystals.

The secret manuals were also stacked neatly to one side.

Qian Yu's spiritual power swept over them, checking each item one by one.

A moment later, he raised his head and nodded.

"Not bad."

He put away the ring, looked at the two men, and said mildly, "Thank you, gentlemen."

The two hurriedly shook their heads.

"No, this is what we should do."

The shorter man replied respectfully.

"Since the items have been delivered, we'll take our leave."

Qian Yu nodded.

"I won't see you out."

The two bowed once more, then turned and boarded their ship.

The hatch closed. The dark-blue spacecraft slowly rose into the air, soon breaking through the atmosphere and vanishing into the starry sky.

Inside the spacecraft.

Only after leaving Silver Blue Star's atmosphere did the two men simultaneously let out a sigh of relief.

The tall man wiped at the nonexistent cold sweat on his forehead and sighed. "So this is Qian Yu, whose name has now shaken the entire Ganwu Universe Country?"

The shorter man nodded. "I heard he killed Pan Xi, the leader of the Fire Phoenix Organization. Anyone who could kill him alone couldn't possibly be ordinary. Qian Yu's strength is definitely no joke."

"More than just no joke."

The tall man shook his head.

"Did you feel that oppressive pressure just now? We're both peak ninth-level Realm Lords, yet we actually felt our hearts tremble before him. If that kid keeps growing, he'll become at least a Marquis Immortal in the future. He might even become a King."

The shorter man deeply agreed.

"I heard he used to be a slave. Reaching this level of cultivation in barely over a hundred years is simply horrifying."

"Who cares?"

The tall man shrugged.

"Maybe he had some fortunate encounter. The universe is vast; what strange things haven't happened? We only handle deliveries. The rest has nothing to do with us."

The shorter man nodded, then seemed to recall something and smiled. "The Fire Phoenix Organization really had rotten luck offending him. I heard that after Pan Xi died, the remaining directors of the Fire Phoenix Organization became terrified, afraid Qian Yu would come looking for them. I wonder what that kid will do next."

"Who knows?"

"I just wonder how long this rising star can shine."

"Who knows."

The shorter man shook his head.

"Who cares? Let's head back and report."

The spacecraft accelerated, entered the Dark Universe, and disappeared.

Silver Blue Star, in the plaza.

Qian Yu watched the spacecraft depart, then turned and headed toward the main hall.

Over the past year, Qian Yu had immediately broken through to the Realm Lord level.

With his understanding of the laws, breaking through to Realm Lord was exceedingly easy. There were no shackles whatsoever; whenever he wanted to break through, he simply did.

He had finally figured out the timeline at this point.

Unless something unexpected happened, the next Genius War would be the period when Luo Feng and the others rose to prominence.

He had visited the void region of the Milky Way Galaxy, and it was indeed covered by Hu Yanbo's spatial secret technique.

That spatial secret technique was not particularly profound.

With Space-Time Control activated, he could easily break through it, but he had not done so.

He did not want to interfere too heavily with the plot of the original work.

During this time, he had done only one thing on Earth: replaced the original Yun Mo Star No. 9 Ancient Civilization Ruins with Qian Yu's own civilization ruins.

As long as Luo Feng entered those civilization ruins to explore in the future, Qian Yu would receive the information and could come directly.

If circumstances permitted then, taking Luo Feng as a disciple would not be impossible.

Just as he was thinking this, light and shadow suddenly gathered beside him, forming the phantom of a green-haired woman.

"Master."

She spoke softly, her voice clear and pleasant.

"You have received an email from Cosmic Star River Bank."

This green-haired woman was an advanced intelligence Qian Yu had recently purchased. He had named her Azure Luan.

Qian Yu did not stop walking and merely nodded.

"Open it."

Azure Luan raised her hand and tapped lightly. A virtual screen appeared out of thin air before Qian Yu.

At the same time, she introduced it softly. "It is an invitation from the Ganwu Auction House."

"Ganwu Auction House?"

Qian Yu's steps paused slightly as he looked at the screen.

On the screen, an exquisitely crafted invitation was displayed quietly.

Its contents were concise and clear, inviting Mr. Qian Yu to attend the upcoming Ganwu Auction in three days.

"The minimum requirement for attending the Ganwu Auction is a three-star client."

Azure Luan added.

"Master is currently a six-star client, so you would naturally receive an invitation."

Qian Yu nodded slightly.

The Ganwu Auction was the grandest auction in the entire Ganwu Universe Country. Treasures rarely seen under normal circumstances would appear there, and even certain restricted goods might be offered.

"Three days from now..."

Qian Yu pondered for a moment.

He had only just settled down and originally planned to enter seclusion for a while, digesting those secret techniques and resources.

But missing an opportunity like the Ganwu Auction would indeed be regrettable.

An auction of this level had plenty of good items.

Perhaps he could encounter treasures that were normally unavailable, or special items useful to him.

"Then I'll attend and take a look."

Qian Yu made his decision.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Virtual Universe, Black Dragon Mountain Island.

Qian Yu's figure appeared above the island.

He needed to teleport to Ganwu Continent before entering the Ganwu Auction venue.

With a thought.

Whoosh!

Qian Yu's figure vanished instantly, teleporting away from Black Dragon Mountain Island.

Above Ganwu Continent, an enormous Suspended City floated amid the clouds and mist.

Qian Yu appeared out of thin air, the Suspended City not far beneath his feet.

The city was built entirely from jade-white stone. Ethereal mist curled around it, and the scenery was beautiful, with flowers and plants everywhere, like a paradise on earth.

The invitation in his hand glowed faintly, shooting out specks of light that touched the Suspended City's defensive barrier.

The barrier automatically opened a passage.

Qian Yu stepped inside.

At the very center of the Suspended City stood an incomparably massive building: the auction hall.

The Ganwu Auction was held here every time.

Qian Yu landed in the plaza before the auction hall and saw that two long lines had already formed at the entrance.

Powerful figures from all over the universe were queuing to enter.

Those experts came in all forms: burly giants seven or eight meters tall, radiating violent auras; indifferent figures who seemed like burning flames, warping the surrounding space slightly; sinister dwarves only a meter tall with three eyes, whose gazes inspired fear.
