Was Tang San Going to Attend the Gengxin City Auction Too?
[Ten rare metals: Cold Heart Iron Essence, Multi-Faceted Devil Crystal, Diamond Adamantine, Blazing Sun Iron, Crystal Steel, Silver Mother Steel, Tungsten Steel, Heavenly Meteoric Iron, Golden Dragon Scale, and Plate Crystal, one kilogram each.]
Of these, only two or three metals were ones that Lin Luo had heard of, such as Cold Heart Iron Essence, which is known as the hardest metal on the Douluo Continent.
There's also the Silver Mother from the Deep Sea Sunken Silver, which I remember being extremely precious and priceless.
Plate Crystal are relatively common; in the original novel, they were the material Tang San used to make Dragon Whisker Needle.
Lin Luo was unfamiliar with the other metals, as he vaguely remembered them being rarely mentioned in the original work.
In fact, the Spirit Hall is very wealthy. Even the most expensive metals are not difficult to obtain from them. The only problem is that there may be a price but no market for them.
Qian Daoliu carefully put away the Soul Seal and said, "Here's what we'll do. Lou Gao held an auction in Gengxin City and even sent an invitation to Lou Gao Spirit Hall. I wasn't planning to pay any attention to it, but since this kid pulled something out of it, I'll give you the invitation."
At this point, Qian Daoliu looked at Lin Luo: "He hasn't even learned to speak yet, so I don't expect him to make any demands. Consider this auction as me fulfilling my promise. I'll bring this little guy to the auction, and whatever he wants, he can bid on it without hesitation. There will be plenty of funds."
Qian Renxue was not satisfied. "What's so great about the auction held by the Blacksmith Association? It's just auctioning off some Lou Gao works of art and rare metals."
Lin Luo suddenly became excited. "Go~ Go~"
Seeing the baby's reaction, Qian Renxue asked in surprise, "Are you going to the auction?"
Lin Luo: "Go~"
Qian Daoliu somewhat surprised. "He can talk?"
"Besides calling out some names, she can also say some very simple phrases. She's progressing very quickly!"
Qian Renxue, as a mother, was very proud.
But he couldn't even call his great-grandfather "great-grandfather"... Qian Daoliu became more and more annoyed. He tossed over an exquisite invitation and turned to leave.
"The Blacksmith Association Auction will be held in seven days in Gengxin City."
Qian Renxue read the words on the invitation and suddenly became interested.
After all, she hadn't left the house for three months since giving birth to Lin Luo, so this was a good opportunity to take the child out for a relaxing break!
Anyone want to come along?
She looked at the worshippers and elders.
The other elders didn't seem very interested; after all, they were old and too lazy to bother. But Guang Ling was different; his expectant look practically screamed "I want to go!"
Golden Crocodile said disdainfully, "Look at Fifth Brother's appearance. Let him go with us. If we don't let him go this time, he'll probably throw a tantrum on the ground."
Guang Ling jumped up in anger. "Slander! How could I, at my age, do such a thing!"
The elders all turned their attention to Bibi Dong.
Bibi Dong: "Yue Guan, come with me. We can contact Miles when we get there."
"Yes, Your His Holiness the Pope."
Heaven Dou Empire
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, reception room.
A boy of about ten years old sat opposite Ning Fengzhi, his demeanor displaying a maturity beyond his years.
This was also the thing Ning Fengzhi was most curious about during the time they had spent together.
Just how many secrets does Tang San hold within him?
Ning Fengzhi his teacup and said with a smile, "Speaking of which, did you perhaps grow up in the Strength Clan? After all, it's hard for me not to connect you with the Clear Sky Sect disciples who possess forging abilities."
Tang San: "Uncle Ning, there's no need to test my identity anymore. I will tell you when the time is right."
"How about it, Godly Zhuge Crossbow?"
Ning Fengzhi's expression immediately turned solemn and respectful. "Very impressive, beyond imagination. Just how impressive are you...?"
Tang San interrupted him, "It would be good if I could gain Uncle Ning's approval."
Ning Fengzhi gave him another deep look.
He said, "I've tried my best to send people to purchase the metals you need, but some rare metals are really scarce. However, coincidentally, there will be an auction in Gengxin City in a week, initiated by the Blacksmith Association. You might find what you're looking for there."
After saying that, Ning Fengzhi placed a platinum-level invitation on the table and smiled, "Come with me then."
Tang San narrowed his eyes. "Uncle Ning, you really believe I can forge even more powerful Hidden Weapon?"
Ning Fengzhi: "Firstly, because of Godly Zhuge Crossbow, and secondly..."
His eyes gleamed. "According to what you said, a difficult-to-detect contaminant was indeed found in the health-preserving tonics that Xue Ye usually takes. As for whether this contaminant is related to the Crown Prince, I am still investigating."
Tang San: "No rush... Is Xue Qinghe still in the palace right now?"
Ning Fengzhi his head. "It's strange, he's been unwell for eight months, and now he's gone to a quiet place to recuperate, but no one in the palace knows where he went."
"The Spirit Hall."
Tang San blurted it out without any hesitation.
However, his youthful face revealed a deep sense of confusion.
"That shouldn't be the case, why would she leave for eight months at this time...?"
Ning Fengzhi smiled and said, "I don't know why you're so certain he's from the Spirit Hall, but don't worry, I'll investigate carefully."
"Come with me to Gengxin City in a week. Whatever metal you want, as long as it's there, I, Ning, can definitely get it for you."
"Thank you very much, Uncle Ning."
"There's no need for thanks; this is just a collaboration."
One week later.
Gengxin City, Spirit Hall Branch.
"Your subordinate, Miles, greets Your His Holiness the Pope!"
"Greetings, Elder Ju!"
"Pay homage to the Fifth Offering!"
See also... See also...
Miles, one of the four Platinum Bishop, knelt on one knee and craned his neck forward, trying to see what the strange woman's face looked like under her veil.
Yue Guan frowned. "Miles, once you see what she looks like, you won't be far from death."
"Ah?!"
Miles was terrified and quickly pulled his head back, never looking at the strange girl again.
"Your subordinate admits guilt!"
"Is his identity really that special?" he couldn't help but exclaim inwardly.
Bibi Dong spoke calmly, "You must be tired from your journey. Please prepare rooms for us to rest."
"Yes!"
In the spacious reception hall, Miles immediately led the way, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.
For some reason, the Spirit Hall has never been interested in auctions, but this time even the Pope and the Fifth Offering came in person.
The moment he saw the other person, he almost spat out his tea.
"Behave yourself, don't move."
Qian Renxue lowered her head and whispered into her robes.
Lin Luo couldn't hold back any longer and squeezed her little head out from under Qian Renxue's robe.
Why did you come out?
Qian Renxue quickly raised her hand to cover Lin Luo's head.
Can't I even get some fresh air? I'm being crushed to death by Nana.
For the first time, Lin Luo realized that having a large grain storage facility wasn't necessarily a good thing.
