Chapter 499 The Grand Auction (part-10)

The adventures hurriedly left the room without bothering to count everything.

They might not be aware of Mark's true identity but they know that Eol is from the same room as the Supreme Beings.

The fact that they couldn't sense anything from Mark only put more fear in their hearts.

As a result, Wang Zhongwei and Mark found themselves alone in the chancery with Eol guarding the door from the outside to make sure no one comes and disturb by accident.

Meanwhile, the Auction House Master was filled with shock as he heard Mark's new request.

He neither accepted it right away nor rejected it.

Instead, he stayed there in silence for a while as if he was pondering on it.

Unable to bear the silence for a very long time, Azzy broke it by asking him, "Is there a problem? I believe the items I have described are heaven-defying enough to bypass the established rules and make an exception."

"Ah, no. It's just that I have to talk with Elder Xin. Without her consent, it is not possible and Void Temple's Elders are too strict with their rules," replied the Auction House Master while slowly glancing at Mark's face to check his expression.

The overly calm expression on Mark scared him even more.

However, thankfully for him, Mark didn't take it as offense and instead said, "Arrange a meeting with Ms. Xin, right now. I will talk to her."

Mark let out a fake smile as he took out the two items he planned to add to the auction.

"Certainly," Wang Zhongwei hurriedly took out his communication talisman to converse with the Void Temple's representative.

After a while, Xin Rui entered the room and Wang Zhongwei stood outside, alongside Eol.

Xin Rui was aware of Mark's friendship with the Supreme Beings but her words didn't contain any ounce of politeness.

She treated him just like the others.

"So, what is it that you want to talk about?" She looked at him coldly with a mild displeasure on her face.

Mark let out a fake smile as he took out the two items he planned to add to the auction.

While Xin Rui was indeed surprised by the items, she remained uncooperative, "Look, Mr. Lu, they might be special but you are merely using our auction as the medium to sell to others." Her tone was firm and her eyes were fixed on Mark's face as she continued, "Even if you sell them for a billion gold coins, we will still get 50 million as our cut at most. Certainly, the money is high but not to the extent to make favor on you."

Mark narrowed his eyes and stared at her for a while, thinking, "So, you are playing this game of logic, huh? Fine, in that case, I'll slam the uno reverse on you."

Making up his mind, Mark dragged the chair nearby and sat down, earning a frown from the other party, before he said, "Let's not involve the Void Temple here. We shall talk about you, Ms. Xin Rui. Or should I call you, Lan Rui, the daughter of Lan Haoyu and Princess Tang Yejin?"

Not only is Xin Rui's frown deepened by his words, but even her own personal weapon is out.

Pointing the saber at him, she almost growled, "Who the hell are you?" for new novels

With a fake smile on his face, Mark replied as he crossed his legs, "I told you earlier, I'm Lu Zhen and I'm a weapon seller. But, we are not here to talk about my identity anyway. So, the daughter of Lan Haoyu, before we talk further, can you take this away? I don't like pointy objects at my face."

As she dismissed the saber and asked him to go on, he continued, "My offer is simple. You make an exception for me to put these two items into the next segment of the auction and I will help you with your revenge. Of course, I believe that revenge is more satisfactory when taken with own hands. Hence, I will not kill your enemies for you but you can count on my help to work behind the scenes and pave the road for you. What do you say? Ready to do a small favor to get big dividends later on?"

"Eh?" Shock filled Xin Rui's face.

After a while;

Type: Gauntlets

Description: Imbued with the power of thunderstorms, these gauntlets allow the wearer to harness and control lightning. Martial artists could deliver electrifying strikes, summon thunderclouds for cover, and channel lightning through their limbs for devastating close-quarter combat.

***Item no. 10: Thousand Petal Blossom Palm***

Description: Focusing on rapid and precise strikes, this palm technique mimics the unfolding of a thousand petals. Martial artists could unleash a flurry of blows with unparalleled speed, overwhelming opponents with a seemingly endless barrage of attacks.

"And now for the eleventh item, Seraph Dragon Bow; Crafted from sacred wood of the ancient seraph trees, found only in the plane of fire and ice, with its core made of an Ice Dragon's eye, this amazing divine bow of Earth grade can shoot the arrows filled with the power of an Ice Dragon. While it can be handled by any warriors, due to its attribute, it is best in the hands of someone with an Ice attribute."

VIP Box no. 8;

"Markie, you have the Ice attribute," commented Song Yue.

Mark shook his head, "I don't like conventional weapons."

"Hmm, that's true. You are cooler with guns," Song Yue nodded and gave another comment.

"I never expected your mom to have such a bubbly side to her. The one we know is quite different, right," James whispered to Steve, in English. The latter nodded in agreement.

Sylvandria who was sitting beside Mark had her ears perked up and she looked to the side, glancing behind her, "Mom?"

"They sat at the back, maintaining a bit of distance from the others, quietly whispering to each other in confidence. Unbeknownst to them, Sylvandria understood their language, courtesy of Zan Rong, Marina Zan, and Allen.

Finding their conversation interesting, she paid a bit of attention to them.

It was then Steve said, "Not just her demeanor, even her strength leaped bounds. She might have faced a heaven-defying moment that changed her personality along with her talent."

"I hope we will be there to see that. Based on the timeline, we might have to return soon. Don't develop any unnecessary affection for their past selves," replied James in a whisper.

"I know that." Steve looked like he was slightly frustrated.

"Timeline? Heaven-defying moment? What exactly are they talking about?" Sylvandria wondered.

Mark, on the other hand, was too busy with either chatting with Song Yue and Shen Ling or focusing on the displayed items. He didn't hear anything.

Back at the platform;

Xin Rui raised the sword hiding in its sheath to show everyone and grabbed the handle.

"This next item is recommended for the sword users with a fire attribute." As soon as she took out the blade from its sheath, fiery blue flames erupted from the sword and she quickly placed it back. "This next item is recommended for the sword users with a fire attribute." As soon as she took out the blade from its sheath, fiery blue flames erupted from the sword and she quickly placed it back. "This Sky-grade weapon is called Inferno Blossom Blade, one of the masterpieces created by the Void Temple once again.

Coming to its details, it is a fiery katana forged from titanium and adamantium with a seed of fire as its core. The blade bursts into flames upon unsheathing, dealing both physical and fire damage. It is said that each strike releases the fury of the fire seed within the blade."

"Sky grade weapon?" In an instant, whisperings began in the VIP Boxes as well as in the spectator zone. Everyone was quite surprised to see a sky-grade weapon, which is not in the top 3.

And one voice expressed it loudly, "A sky-grade weapon didn't make it to the final 3 of your auction? I didn't expect your backward realm to possess items of Heaven's grade. Nevertheless, too bad that you came into my sight..."

Followed by the voice, a figure floated out of VIP Box no. 48, the room adjacent to Qing Jie's and the one that has yet to bid for a single item.

With freckles all over his face, a silver-haired old man in white robes that have the symbol of the Sun engraved on both sides broke the most important rule of the auction, directly coming down onto the platform through flying and that too when the Void Temple's representative is introducing the items.

Sensing nothing from him, Xin Rui acted quickly by sending all the displayed items back into their respective storage rings before collecting all of those storage rings in her storage ring.

The old expert didn't land on the floor and stopped a few feet above, looking down at two of them, "I'm here to investigate the news of the holy beasts' rebirth in this backward place but didn't expect to find a treasure."
