Let you be a good grandson, you raise a group of banshees?

In the middle of the crowd, a woman in white was being besieged by a group of people in black.

The woman in white has a graceful figure and a beautiful face, like a fairy from heaven.

However, her situation was extremely dangerous.

The men in black were all highly skilled in martial arts, and the woman in white was outnumbered and had suffered multiple injuries.

"stop!"

Seeing this, Lu Yuan shouted and rushed into the crowd.

He drew his sword and started a fierce battle with the man in black.

Lu Yuan is very powerful and the man in black is no match for him.

After a while, all the men in black were knocked to the ground by Lu Yuan.

"Girl, are you okay?" Lu Yuan asked with concern.

The woman in white shook her head and said, "Thank you for saving me, sir."

"It's just a piece of cake." Lu Yuan said lightly.

"My name is Bai Suzhen. May I ask your name, sir?" asked the woman in white.

"Lu Yuan."

"Lu Yuan..." Bai Suzhen repeated Lu Yuan's name in a low voice, and a strange light flashed in her beautiful eyes.

"Mr. Lu, I will never forget your kindness today. If you need me in the future, just let me know. I will go through fire and water for you without hesitation."

Lu Yuan looked at Bai Suzhen in front of him and felt that he had seen her somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where. Just as he was thinking, Bai Suzhen smiled and said, "Mr. Lu, I have something to ask of you."

Before Lu Yuan could speak, Bai Suzhen leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Mr. Lu, may I have a word with you?"

As she spoke, Bai Suzhen's breath gently blew against Lu Yuan's ears. A faint fragrance penetrated his nostrils, making his heart flutter.

Bai Suzhen's breath was as fragrant as orchid, stirring Lu Yuan's heartstrings. He subconsciously took a half step back and coughed unnaturally: "Miss, please speak."

Bai Suzhen smiled softly with her hands covering her mouth, her eyes moving with a charming look: "Mr. Lu, to be honest, I came to Tianyang City this time to look for a treasure - the 'Nine Suns Divine Pearl'. I heard that this item will be auctioned at the 'Treasure Pavilion' in Tianyang City soon, but I am short of money, I wonder if Mr. Lu can..."

When she said this, she seemed to be hesitant to speak, and her beautiful eyes looked at Lu Yuan pitifully, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Lu Yuan thought to himself, this woman is really a retreat to advance! How could he, Lu Yuan, be fooled by such a trick? But then he thought, he had heard a little about the Nine Suns Divine Pearl, which is said to contain powerful energy. If he could get it, it would be of great benefit to improve his cultivation. Besides, although Bai Suzhen's intentions were not pure, her appearance was indeed one in a million, so it would not hurt to help her.

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan's mouth corners slightly raised, pretending to be generous and said: "Miss, there is no need to say more. I, Lu Yuan, love to help others the most. Leave this matter to me."

Bai Suzhen was overjoyed when she heard that, and hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you, Mr. Lu! Your kindness is so great that I have no way to repay you, the only thing I can do is..." As she spoke, she slowly approached Lu Yuan, stretched out her slender hand, and gently stroked his chest.

Lu Yuan felt a current running through his body. He cursed himself for not having enough self-control in his heart, but pretended to be calm and said, "Miss, you don't have to do this. It's just a piece of cake."

Bai Suzhen did not give up, but became bolder. Her fingers moved down along his chest, finally stopping at his waist, stroking it gently.

Lu Yuan took a deep breath, suppressed the restlessness in his heart, grabbed Bai Suzhen's hand, and said in a serious tone: "Girl, please respect yourself!"

Bai Suzhen was startled by his sudden action and quickly withdrew her hand, a trace of embarrassment flashing across her face.

Lu Yuan took advantage of the situation and changed the subject, "When will the auction of Wanbao Pavilion be held?"

"Tomorrow at noon." Bai Suzhen replied.

"Okay, I'll go there with the girl tomorrow."

……

At noon the next day, Lu Yuan and Bai Suzhen came to Wanbao Pavilion.

Wanbao Pavilion is the largest auction house in Tianyang City, and today's auction has attracted many dignitaries.

Lu Yuan and Bai Suzhen found a seat and sat down, waiting for the auction to begin. After a while, the auction officially began.

Rare treasures were auctioned off one after another, and the prices were getting higher and higher.

Finally, it was the turn of the Nine Yang Divine Pearl.

"Everyone, the next item to be auctioned is the legendary Nine Sun Divine Pearl!" the auctioneer announced loudly, "This pearl contains powerful energy and is a treasure for cultivation. The starting price is one million taels of silver!"

"One million one hundred thousand taels!"

"One million two hundred thousand taels!"

……

The price soared and soon reached two million taels.

Lu Yuan glanced at Bai Suzhen and saw that she looked anxious, so he said, "Three million taels!"

As soon as this statement came out, the whole place was in an uproar.

Everyone looked at Lu Yuan, their eyes filled with surprise and envy.

"This gentleman has bid three million taels! Is there a higher bid?" the auctioneer shouted excitedly.

"Three and a half million taels!" a sharp voice rang out.

Lu Yuan looked in the direction of the voice and saw a man in a brocade robe looking at him with a smug look on his face.

The man's name was Young Master Zhao, and he was a well-known dandy in Tianyang City. Relying on his prominent family background, he was arrogant and domineering on weekdays, and no one dared to mess with him.

Lu Yuan smiled coldly and raised the sign again: "Five million taels!"

As soon as this statement came out, the whole place was in an uproar again.

Mr. Zhao's face changed, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Six million taels!"

"Ten million taels!" Lu Yuan said indifferently, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.

Master Zhao's face turned pale. He knew he was no longer able to compete.

"Ten million taels once! Ten million taels twice! Ten million taels three times! Deal!"

With the sound of the auctioneer's hammer, the Nine Yang Divine Pearl was finally bought by Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan turned to look at Bai Suzhen, only to find that her face was pale and her eyes were full of fear.

"What's wrong with you?" Lu Yuan asked.

Bai Suzhen pointed behind him with trembling hands and stammered, "You...behind you..."

Lu Yuan was confused and turned around slowly.

A mysterious man in a black robe and a bamboo hat was standing behind him, holding a black dagger in his hand, emitting a cold light...

Lu Yuan slowly turned around and saw the man in black behind him. He couldn't help but laugh. "You think you can sneak attack me?"

The man in black said nothing, but the dagger in his hand was flashing with cold light, obviously it was poisoned. He flashed and pounced on Lu Yuan like a ghost, piercing his heart with the dagger.

Lu Yuan was too lazy to dodge and just let the dagger stab him. With a crisp "ding" sound, the dagger actually broke into two pieces! There was not even a trace left on Lu Yuan's body.

"That's all?" Lu Yuan smiled contemptuously, "It seems that I overestimated you."

The man in black was obviously shocked by the result. He was stunned for a moment, then turned around and tried to escape.

"Want to leave? Not that easy!" Lu Yuan snorted coldly, stretched out his hand, and grabbed the man in black in mid-air, holding him in his hand like a chicken. (End of this chapter)
