Chapter 436 Night Sky Stone Auction

After considering for a long time, Zhou Chaoyuan finally chose to save his life.

After all, if you lose your life, you lose everything.

Changyue did not treat Zhou Chaoyuan immediately. Instead, after helping Zhou Chaoyuan stabilize his injuries, he summoned all the officials.

"See Your Majesty!"

All the officials knelt down before Zhou Chaoyuan's bed.

"Ahem~~" Zhou Chaoyuan was helped up by Zhou Jinchun and said in a weak voice, "My dear ministers, please don't be polite."

After hearing this, all the officials slowly stood up.

At this time, the Prime Minister stepped forward and asked, "Your Majesty, why did you call us here?"

Zhou Chaoyuan said: "You all have seen my condition. I am afraid it will be difficult for me to recover in a short period of time. However, the country cannot be without a ruler for a day, so the Crown Princess will be the regent. If I still cannot recover within three years, the Crown Princess will succeed me as the new ruler."

"His Majesty!"

Hearing this, all the officials were terrified and quickly knelt down again.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem. My mind is made up. No need to say more." Zhou Chaoyuan said while coughing, "Prime Minister, the Crown Princess is now in your hands."

The Prime Minister immediately kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured. I will serve you till my death!"

Then Zhou Chaoyuan took out the imperial seal and handed it to Zhou Jinchun, saying, "The Great Zhou is now in your hands. If there is anything you don't understand, ask these old officials. They are all the pillars of the Great Zhou. You should ask more, listen more, and learn more."

"Yes, Father."

Zhou Jinchun took the imperial seal with both hands.

In fact, Zhou Jinchun is very suitable to use the treasures of the Imperial Seal and the Zhoutian Golden Dragon Instrument.

Generally, emperors need to sacrifice their own lives to use these two treasures. If they are not careful, their essence will be damaged and their lives will be in danger.

But Zhou Jinchun is a person who has eaten the flesh of Tai Sui. She is immortal and can recover from any serious injury. The Imperial Seal and the Zhoutian Golden Dragon Instrument can absorb her at will.

Then Zhou Chaoyuan gave some instructions to all the officials before letting them leave.

Not long after all the officials left, Changyue returned to Zhou Chaoyuan's bedroom and officially treated him.

Zhou Chaoyuan’s injuries were extremely difficult to treat for ordinary doctors, but for Changyue, who possessed the power of creation, it was a piece of cake.

After a while, Zhou Chaoyuan's injuries were almost healed.

"After resting for a while, your Majesty's health will be fine. From now on, your Majesty should concentrate on practicing in the secret realm of the Great Zhou." Changyue said.

Feeling his body relaxed again, Zhou Chaoyuan was overwhelmed with emotions.

"Just follow the Holy Lord's will."

After treating Zhou Chaoyuan, Changyue did not stay in the Great Zhou Dynasty for long, and went straight back to Qianjiao City, taking his young apprentice Niu Anyou with him.

Zhou Jinchun also had things to do. This time the Demon Cult invaded in large numbers, and although all those who entered the secret realm were eliminated, who knew if there were still any remnants of the Demon Cult hidden in the imperial capital.

So Zhou Jinchun decided to bring people to thoroughly investigate the entire imperial capital.

After Changyue left, Bai Xi also left with the Wan Yao Dynasty team.

One month after Zhou Jinchun's enthronement ceremony, she, as the crown princess of the Great Zhou Dynasty, led her king to the border of Qingzhou, carrying the imperial seal and the Zhoutian Golden Dragon Ceremony.

Today, Qingzhou is jointly ruled by the four major evil sects: the White Lotus Sect, the Thousand Saints Sect, the Yingui Sect and the Seven Fragrance Hall, and the border of Qingzhou is a battlefield opened up by the evil sects and the various sects in the thirteen states.

The two sides have been fighting here for more than ten years.

This time, Zhou Jinchun led his troops to the battlefield in person. With the power of the imperial seal and the Zhoutian Golden Dragon Ritual, he killed the last Lotus Ancestor of the White Lotus Sect, the Green Lotus Envoy, with lightning speed.

She is now the Crown Princess and the acting monarch, so she naturally meets the requirements to use the Imperial Seal and the Zhoutian Golden Dragon Ritual.

As the saying goes, it is impolite not to reciprocate. The behavior of the White Lotus Sect has touched the bottom line of the Great Zhou. If the Great Zhou remains indifferent, others will think that the Great Zhou is afraid of the White Lotus Sect!
Although the three Lotus Ancestors who died were merely incarnations of powerful beings from outer space, this move by Da Zhou did indeed intimidate all the demon sects, making some of the demon sects that originally wanted to attack Da Zhou feel fearful.

Similarly, the Crown Princess of the Great Zhou became famous in this battle.

As long as you are strong enough, the Zhoutian Golden Dragon Instrument is a powerful weapon!
Half a year passed in the blink of an eye. In Shuiyue Holy City, after a year of preparation, the gathering of the seven holy places finally began.

Shuiyue Holy City has been very lively recently, with disciples from the seven holy places gathering here in an endless stream.

Similarly, taking advantage of this opportunity, more and more cultists were secretly arranged by Yu Faner to join.

Zhao Zhao and Chu Ji transformed themselves into two ordinary warriors and secretly entered the Shuiyue Holy City.

Walking down the street with Chu Ji, Zhao Zhao looked at the warriors gathered in groups of two or three and said with a smile, "It's really a lively event."

On both sides of the street, Zhao Zhao saw many warriors setting up stalls, some selling medicinal herbs, some selling minerals, and some selling exotic beasts...

These were the low-level disciples of the seven holy places. Taking advantage of this event, these disciples wanted to earn some extra money, so they took out all their family assets.

Of course, there are also many people who want to take advantage of the opportunity to commit fraud and do some profitable business.

Zhao Zhao glanced at the stalls one by one, trying to see if he could find a bargain.

Although she has everything she needs, it is only appropriate to pick up bargains at this time, just for fun.

As she looked at it, she actually discovered something interesting.

"Take a look, take a look. These are all treasures that I found in the secret realm after going through untold hardships. You won't suffer a loss if you buy them, and you won't be fooled. These ancient treasures are waiting for you to discover!"

At one stall, a young disciple wearing the clothing of the Wuji Holy Land was working hard to sell his treasures.

Zhao Zhao came to his stall and squatted down, picked up a crystal-like stone and asked, "Did you really find these from the secret realm?"

The young disciple said confidently, "Of course, I will compensate you tenfold if it's fake."

Zhao Zhao chuckled and said, "But I see this stone..."

Before Zhao Zhao finished speaking, she heard the disciple boasting, "Although I don't know what this stone is, you can tell from its appearance that it is extraordinary. If you buy it back, you might be able to make a magical weapon out of it!"

Zhao Zhao glanced at him, then said with a half-smile, "But as far as I know, this stone is called Night Sky Stone, a variant of Sky Stone.

Although the Sky Stone is a good thing, the Night Sky Stone only has a good appearance and is actually useless. "

Kongming Stone is one of the materials used to create storage items. It is very rare and contains the power of space.

Its variant, the Night Sky Stone, lost its spatial characteristics due to a sudden change in properties. Although it became more beautiful in appearance, it was extremely easy to break and could not be used to forge treasures.

After listening to Zhao Zhao's explanation, the young disciple looked embarrassed. "So I met someone who knows what he's doing. Are you a weapon refiner?"

Didn't the seniors in the sect say that Night Sky Stone was rare and no one would easily recognize it? How come the truth was revealed as soon as the store opened today?

The young disciple cursed the elder of his sect's treasure appraisal pavilion in his heart.

He had indeed obtained the Night Sky Stone in the secret realm, but since he didn't recognize it, he thought of selling it to the sect. However, the elder of the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion knew it and was unwilling to accept it. He also suggested that he take advantage of the gathering of the seven holy places to make a move and slaughter the disciples of other holy places.

Now it’s bad, it’s not a good time to open the door!
"That's not the case, we just happened to know each other." Zhao Zhao shook his head.

The Night Sky Stone is indeed useless in refining weapons, but what people don’t know is that it is the material for engraving spells.

This is clearly recorded in "Heavenly Curse and Earthly Gu".

The young disciple laughed awkwardly and said, "Please don't expose me, it's not easy for me to make money."

If people knew that he was using worthless Night Sky Stones to cheat people, he would not be able to keep his stall!

Zhao Zhao laughed and said, "Why would I expose you? You didn't trick me."

The young disciple was overjoyed when he heard this, "Thank you, young lady, thank you, young lady!" Then Zhao Zhao said, "Sell all these night sky stones to me."

The young disciple was stunned when he heard this, "Don't you know this thing is useless? Then why do you need it?"

Zhao Zhao said impatiently: "If I ask you to sell it, then you sell it. How can I not give you money?"

"Okay, okay!" The young disciple quickly gathered up all the Night Sky Stones and stuffed them into Zhao Zhao's arms. Then he asked, "I still have some here. Do you want some, young lady?"

"Take them all out!" Zhao Zhao said.

"Okay!" He took out a few more pills from the package behind him.

Zhao Zhao counted them and found a total of twelve. She said with satisfaction, "You are quite capable to find so many."

This thing is indeed useless to others, but it is still a rare item.

"Hehe~It's all luck." The young disciple scratched his head and said.

"How much?" Zhao Zhao asked.

This stumped the young disciple, as he didn't even know how to price this useless material!

“Forget it!” Zhao Zhao saw the young disciple scratching his head, so he threw a Yuan Crystal to him and then turned and left with Chu Ji.

When the young disciple saw the Yuan Crystal in his hand, he said with surprise: "Middle-level Yuan Crystal?!"

Get rich!
He thought Zhao Zhao would just give him an inferior Yuan Crystal just to show off, but he didn't expect that the other party would actually give him a medium-grade Yuan Crystal.

However, Zhao Zhao's action of throwing the Yuan Jing just now was seen by another group of people. They looked at each other with sinister light in their eyes, and then quietly followed Zhao Zhao and Chu Ji.

"Master, we are being followed." Chu Ji said in a low voice.

"Let them follow me, I just feel bored." Zhao Zhao said nonchalantly.

Chu Ji fell silent when he heard this.

After ten years of getting along, she understood the master's character who was eager to create chaos in the world.

After walking around again, Zhao Zhao was really bored, so she deliberately walked towards a deserted place. When they reached an empty street, the person following them finally couldn't help but jumped out.

"Young lady, our brothers are short of money. Can we borrow some from you?" a man with a pointed chin and monkey cheeks asked in a servile manner.

Zhao Zhao glanced at him from head to toe, and said with a scornful smile on his face: "With your cultivation level of Condensation Realm, you dare to come out and rob? Aren't you afraid of having your legs broken?"

Zhao Zhao's words made the man angry and ashamed, "You bitch, you said my cultivation is low? Today, grandpa will let you know how powerful I am. Come on, little guys!"

As they spoke, a group of people rushed towards Zhao Zhao and Chu Ji with fierce looks, with the man with a pointed chin and monkey cheeks at the front.

But before he could get close to Zhao Zhao, Chu Ji kicked him away. He didn't even have time to scream before he hit the wall and turned into an indescribable mass of blood and flesh.

The others who were sprinting were stunned. They all froze in place with looks of horror on their faces.

“Master…master!”

Zhao Zhao frowned helplessly and said, "Chu Ji, you are too violent. This looks a bit disgusting."

Chu Ji said in a cold voice: "I'm sorry, Master. I will pay more attention next time."

At this time, those people finally realized that they should escape, so they ran away in a blink of an eye.

At this moment, a red light flashed in Chu Ji's eyes. The next second, all those who were running were frozen in place, unable to make a sound.

Chu Ji's aura poured out, and he didn't even need to make a move. These people exploded one after another, dyeing the surroundings blood red.

"Chu Ji, didn't you promise to pay attention?" Zhao Zhao said helplessly, rubbing his forehead.

Chu Ji apologized without any sincerity, "I'm sorry, my Lord. I forgot."

“Forget it!” Zhao Zhao waved her hand. Just as she was about to leave, she found something in the blood. She bent down and picked it up. “What is this?”

"Invitation?"

What Zhao Zhao picked up was a folded piece of paper. On the surface of the paper were three large gold-plated characters of "INVITEMENT". Although the surface was covered in blood, the three characters were not stained with blood.

Zhao Zhao opened the invitation and found that it was an invitation to an auction.

"Is Shuiyue Holy City going to hold an auction?"

Chu Ji shook her head. How would she know?

"How about we go out and have some fun?" Zhao Zhao asked.

Chu Ji replied: "As long as the master is happy."

"But this auction seems to be based on real names." Zhao Zhao said as he looked at the two words "Qin Hu" on the invitation.

Are these people robbing just to attend the auction? Do they want to go to the auction so badly? They will go even if they have to rob.

"correct!"

Zhao Zhao suddenly had an idea. She used some blood to wipe the name on the post, and the name was immediately covered by the blood.

"That's all!" Zhao Zhao said with a smile.

"Really?" Chu Ji asked.

"Just give it a try." Zhao Zhao said indifferently.

"Why don't you just transform into the owner of the post?" Chu Ji was puzzled.

"He's so ugly." Zhao Zhao's face was full of disgust.

Okay, Chu Ji understood. Her master just wanted to cause trouble. He probably wanted the auction house to know that the invitation was not hers.

"Okay, let's go." Zhao Zhao said.

"Yes!" Chu Ji said helplessly.

Three days passed in a flash. During these three days, Zhao Zhao took Chu Ji to wander around the Shuiyue Holy City every day. Sometimes he would buy some random little gadgets that were of no use at all.

This day was the day of the auction, and Zhao Zhao came to the auction venue with the invitation.

The auction was held in a luxurious manor and the door was heavily guarded.

Zhao Zhao walked to the door and followed the others in handing his blood-stained invitation card to the guard.

The guard looked at Zhao Zhao in surprise and asked, "Is this... blood?"

Zhao Zhao nodded, "Yes!"

The guard asked, "Where did all the blood come from? I can't even read the names."

Zhao Zhao lied in all seriousness, "Someone tried to steal my invitation, and I killed them all, so the invitation was stained with a little blood."

The guard looked at the invitation card whose outer surface had been completely dyed red and thought: You call this a little bit?

This girl doesn't look easy to mess with, so forget it! Just pretend you didn't see it.

"Okay, you go in."

The guard decided to turn a blind eye and let Zhaozhao and the others pass.

One invitation card can bring in two extra people, so Chu Ji also followed Zhao Zhao into the manor.
