Chapter 212 Fortune-Viewing Art (first update)
When the nameless little beast had the final winner, the monks at the auction house also breathed a sigh of relief. It was really a twist and turn. A nameless little beast almost caused two high-level monks to take action.
If Brotherhood Pavilion's pavilion master Wu Qingyi hadn't appeared in time enough, the auctioneer in front of him might have been lying on the ground not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
At the same time, the monks became more curious about the origin of the nameless beast. Although it is indeed rare for a juvenile beast to reach Foundation Establishment Early Stage, and its potential is immeasurable.
But it would not cause Cheng Lüxun, a well-known high-level monk from Black Horn Region, to have a falling out with the Brotherhood Pavilion. When he finally left, he even said harsh words to the Brotherhood Pavilion's master of the pavilion, Wu Qingyi.
If there is nothing fishy in this nameless little beast, no monk present would believe it.
"Go back and find out what this nameless little beast is. Why have I never heard of the origin of this beast?" Gui Daoming said calmly in the private room above Luo Mu's head as he watched the nameless beast being taken back to the backstage by the auction house staff.
Next to him, there was a beautiful woman sitting, half lying on his chest. The two of them looked so intimate, she must be his wife.
Behind him, there were two people, a man and a woman. Gui Daoming and his wife were making intimate gestures. It was as if they didn't see the two of them, standing straight behind him like wooden stakes.
Although the auras of both of them were restrained, the fluctuations of spiritual power that were exuded at that time were still powerful.
Both of them are actually high-level monks at the Golden Core stage!
"Yes!" As soon as Gui Daoming finished speaking, the two people behind him responded respectfully. Just as they were about to turn around and leave, Gui Daoming suddenly spoke again.
"One person will go back to investigate the origin of this nameless little beast, and the other will rush outside the city now. If my guess is correct, the boy in front of me should leave here immediately, and I will wait outside the city alone to try my luck and see if I can bump into this kid. If you are lucky enough to bump into this kid, please invite this kid to come and sit in my house. Now, I am really curious about this nameless little beast."
In this auction house, any monk who successfully bids for an item can be randomly teleported to various places outside the Black Horn Region city through the teleportation array at the backstage of the auction house. The specific direction of the city gate is not something that humans can control.
Therefore, what Gui Daoming said is to try your luck.
This can also be regarded as a back-up left by the auction house for the winner of the bid, so as not to be targeted by the master before leaving Black Horn Region, and then killed by him. If this is the case, over time, no one will dare to buy anything in the auction house of Black Horn Region.
It is precisely for this reason that Brotherhood Pavilion spent a lot of money to hire an array master to set up a teleportation array in this auction house to facilitate customers to leave Black Horn Region smoothly.
"With Cheng Lüxun's character, he will definitely not give up on the little beast in front of him. If my guess is correct, I'm afraid he has already begun to prepare. Maybe outside the four city gates, Cheng Lüxun has already laid a dragnet, waiting for the kid in front of him to fall into the trap."
"If you can, help this kid secretly. At least, don't let the nameless beast fall into the hands of Cheng Lüxun."
"Yes!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the two people behind Gui Daoming disappeared behind him.
"Why, your husband regrets it a bit?" After the two disappeared, the woman lying on Gui Daoming's chest asked with a smile on her face.
That chuckle added a bit of lust to the woman's beautiful face. As long as he is a normal man, I am afraid that not many people can remain calm under this woman's smile.
Of course Gui Daoming knew what the woman meant by regret. With a faint smile, Gui Daoming shook her head slightly and said, "I can't talk about regret, I'm just very curious.. The boy in front of me paid such a high price to buy this beast. He must know the detailed origin of this beast. Although your husband and I have not read many books, I still have some knowledge. This is the first time I have encountered such a little beast without any information."
"The world of cultivation is so big that there are some mutated monsters that my husband doesn't recognize. That's quite reasonable. However, why would my husband help this kid? It's not as simple as not wanting the nameless beast to fall into the hands of Cheng Lüxun." The woman smiled, and then spoke to Gui Daoming meaningfully.
Hearing this, Gui Daoming turned his head and looked at his wife, then a smile slowly appeared on his face, and he said, "Haha... I still can't hide it from you!"
"Do you still remember the "Fortune-Viewing Art" that my husband and I practiced?" Gui Daoming asked.
"Fortune-Viewing Art?" The woman raised her eyebrows. After recalling it for a while, she nodded and said, "That is a secret technique that my husband accidentally acquired a few years ago! Why, has he successfully practiced it now?"
"Succeeded in practice?" Gui Daoming said with a bitter smile on his lips, "How can such a heaven-defying secret technique be so easy to succeed in? However, in the past few years, I have touched the surface of this technique."
"Oh? What does this have to do with the matter at hand?" The woman had a puzzled look on her face.
"Although my husband, I only touched a little bit of Fortune-Viewing Art's fur, it was enough for my husband to see some things that normal people can't see or feel." After saying this, the smile on Gui Daoming's face faded, revealing a serious expression.
"The boy in front of me feels very special and not something that belongs in the pond. So, when I was bidding on the little beast just now, I gave up the bidding and forged a good relationship for myself."
"That's it! My husband gave up bidding on the little beast. It turned out to be for this reason. For a long time, I thought that my husband gave up the bid on the little beast because of what I said." At this point, the woman had a complaining look on her face, and there was a hint of disappointment in her beautiful eyes.
"Ah?" Sensing the change in the woman's mood, Gui Daoming's face was startled. The serious look disappeared and he immediately showed a flattering smile, "Wife, what are you talking about? Don't you know how to be a husband? As long as you are willing, I will really take pictures of the little beast for you."
"Hmph!"
The beautiful woman obviously didn't want to hear Gui Daoming's explanation. She snorted coldly, and the expression on her face became more and more aggrieved.
When Gui Daoming first spoke, a soundproof ban was placed on the entire private room. Although Gui Daoming spoke loudly, as long as Divine Sense was not above Gui Daoming, it was completely impossible to overhear what Gui Daoming was saying.
Therefore, Gui Daoming would talk freely with his wife without any scruples, even mentioning the secret method he had just practiced.
However, at this time, Gui Daoming was completely focused on his wife, and he only cared about making her happy. Luo Mu's affairs were slowly forgotten by him.
What he didn't expect was that the decision he made this time and the good relationship he made intentionally would save his life in the future! He sighed at how wise the decision he made today was!
After the nameless beast was brought backstage by the auction house staff, Luo Mu felt all kinds of eyes constantly scanning his body, some were curious, some were confused, some were surprised, and some were malicious.
There are so many malicious looks!
This is Black Horn Region. Any monk who dares to hang out here is not a ruthless character who can add blood to his wounds. For a wealthy person like Luo Mu, and Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivator, whose strength is only "ordinary", it's strange that they don't think wrongly.
Pulling Iron Edge, who was still in a state of shock, Luo Mu said, "Let's go. No matter how good the next thing is, I'm not interested anymore."
In the auction house in front of us, there were quite a number of high-level monks who had reached the Golden Core stage. These guys all looked at Luo Mu with expressions like a wolf has discovered a sheep. Even though Luo Mu thought he was not weak, he still felt a chill running down his spine, so he planned to leave the scene.
There is another most important reason for leaving in a hurry, which is that Luo Mu wants to get the little beast as soon as possible, so as not to change later and miss the unknown little beast.
After being pulled by Luo Mu, Iron Edge came back to his senses. However, before Iron Edge could ask any more questions, he was picked up by Luo Mu and headed towards the exit of the auction house.
Iron Edge was shocked!
After all, he is also a high-level monk in the early stage of the Golden Core. Luo Mu only has the peak cultivation level of Foundation Establishment Late Stage. However, under Luo Mu's hand, Iron Edge can't break free from Luo Mu's hand.
When this happened, Iron Edge, who had just come to his senses, looked stunned again.
"This guy is really no ordinary character!" Iron Edge sighed loudly in his heart as he was dragged along by Luo Mu.
Now, Iron Edge finally understands why he had an instinctive sense of danger when he first saw Luo Mu. It turns out that although Luo Mu only has Foundation Establishment Late Stage has peak cultivation, but the spiritual power in his body is so strong that it has already exceeded the scope of Foundation Establishment Late Stage's peak. According to the current situation, it won't be long before Luo Mu will successfully condense the golden elixir!
The departure of Luo Mu and Iron Edge made many monks' eyes glow with gold. Some monks, just like Luo Mu, left the auction house directly.
After the first person left, the second person and the third person appeared... In just a few moments, two out of ten monks in the auction house actually left.
With the level of Luo Mu Foundation Establishment Late Stage, but he has shown such amazing financial resources, there are very few monks present who are not tempted.
The monks who did not leave the auction house were either still very interested in the items to be auctioned and were reluctant to leave, or they believed that their strength was no longer above Luo Mu and did not dare to go.
In addition, the cruel words Cheng Lüxun dropped when he left, it means that Cheng Lüxun will definitely take action when the time comes. Actually Cheng Lüxun has intervened. Even if they go, they will not get much benefit, and they may even lose their lives.
Therefore, this type of monks chose to stay.
As for those who left the auction house like Luo Mu, these people are all real high-level monks. Those with the lowest cultivation level are all at the early stage of the Golden Core.
They chose to leave, with a kind of luck in their hearts, that is, they would find traces of Luo Mu before Cheng Lüxun, and then kill them and seize their Storage Bag.
Generally speaking, this kind of monks regard Luo Mu as a soft persimmon. What they care about is Cheng Lüxun, not Luo Mu himself!
(Although my body has not recovered yet, I am embarrassed to continue to stop updating. As long as I am still conscious, I can code! The first update of today is here! There will be more to come. How many more updates will be added? I am not sure yet. If I say I want to make up for it, I will definitely make it up!)
