Chapter 785: Items on Consignment at the Auction House
The people in the town seemed to know nothing about this symbol, but Luo Chen and others did not give up.
They decided to stay in the town for a while to observe and inquire carefully.
In an inconspicuous tavern, they started talking with an old man.
The old man seemed to know a lot about the history of the town, so Luo Chen and others asked him about the origin of the symbol.
After hearing this, the old man's face suddenly became solemn: "That symbol is the logo of an evil sect a long time ago. They used to be active in this town, but then suddenly disappeared without a trace."
"Disappeared without a trace?" Qing Shuang asked, "Then where did they go?"
The old man shook his head and said, "No one knows. But since then, strange things have often happened in the town. It seems that someone is secretly controlling everything."
After hearing this, Luo Chen and others were shocked.
They realize that this evil sect may be the core of the Men in Black organization they have been looking for.
"We must find out the true purpose of this sect." Luo Chen said firmly.
So they began to conduct a more in-depth investigation in the town.
They discovered that some residents in the town seemed to be affected by some mysterious force and their behavior became abnormal.
During a late night patrol, Luo Chen and others discovered a hidden underground passage.
At the end of the passage is a huge underground hall. In the center of the hall stands a strange altar with the mysterious symbol engraved on it.
"It seems we have found their secret base." Qingshuang said in a low voice.
Luo Chen nodded, a look of determination flashed in his eyes: "We can't let them continue to do evil."
The three decided to raid the stronghold before dawn.
They sneaked into the underground hall quietly, ready to destroy the stronghold of this evil sect in one fell swoop.
However, they didn't know that a bigger conspiracy was waiting for them.
Just as they were about to take action, suddenly, all the lights in the hall went out and low chanting sounds were heard all around.
"Be careful!" Luo Chen shouted and drew his sword.
In the darkness, countless men in black emerged from all directions, holding weapons in their hands and with crazy lights flashing in their eyes.
A more intense battle is about to begin. Luo Chen, Qingshuang and Feng Qing must use all their strength to survive this life-and-death battle.
What they face are not only the men in black, but also more powerful enemies hiding in the darkness.
In the battle, Luo Chen relied on his superb swordsmanship and cool head, Qingshuang used her talismans and flexible body movements, and Fengqing used his strength and courage. The three cooperated with each other and fought a desperate battle with the enemy.
After a hard fight, they finally repelled the men in black, but all three were exhausted.
They knew that this battle was only a temporary victory and greater challenges were still waiting for them.
"We must find the real leader of this organization." Luo Chen said breathlessly.
Qingshuang and Fengqing nodded. They knew that only by completely destroying this organization could peace be restored.
So they began to look for clues in the underground hall, trying to find the leader of this organization.
After some searching, they found a hidden room behind the altar.
In the room, a man in a black robe was sitting on a chair. He had a strange mask on his face and his eyes were flashing with madness.
"You are finally here." The man in black robe spoke slowly, with a hint of sarcasm in his voice.
Luo Chen, Qingshuang and Feng Qing looked at each other. They knew that the real battle had just begun.
"Are you the leader of this organization?" Luo Chen asked.
The man in black robe stood up. His figure looked unusually tall in the dim light. "Yes, it is me. Do you think you can stop me by defeating my men? You are too naive."
"Then let us see how powerful you are." Feng Qing shouted angrily and drew his sword.
The battle broke out again, and the three men engaged in a fierce confrontation with the man in black robes.
The black-robed man was unexpectedly powerful, and every move he made carried destructive force.
Luo Chen, Qing Shuang and Feng Qing tried their best, they knew that this was their last chance.
After a hard fight, they finally found the black-robed man's weakness and joined forces to defeat him.
The black-robed man fell to the ground, his mask shattered, revealing a face they had never seen before.
However, they had no time to be surprised, because as the black-robed man fell, the entire underground hall began to shake.
"Let's go!" Luo Chen shouted, and they quickly evacuated the underground hall.
When they returned to the surface, the whole town was in chaos.
Luo Chen, Qing Shuang and Feng Qing stood on the street of the small town, looking at the chaos around them, their hearts filled with heaviness.
The residents of the town panicked and ran around, while those affected by the mysterious force were unconsciously destroying everything.
"We must quell this chaos as soon as possible." Luo Chen said, with a hint of fatigue in his voice.
Qingshuang nodded, and she began to move among the crowd, using her talismans to soothe the affected residents.
Her movements were gentle and quick, and each spell seemed to carry a soothing power, and gradually, the residents began to calm down.
At the same time, Feng Qing was working hard to organize the residents of the town, guide them away from dangerous areas, and help them restore order.
His voice was firm and powerful, bringing hope to people.
Luo Chen stood aside, observing the situation around him, his eyes extremely calm.
At this point, the matter was barely over.
Although that evil organization may not be completely wiped out yet.
But Luo Chen doesn't need to deal with the rest of the matters.
Tianji Pavilion will be responsible for the cleanup and aftermath.
"That's about it. It's over. We should leave."
After Luo Chen looked for a while, he said this to Qingshuang beside him.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang decided not to stay any longer, as they knew the town needed time to calm down and they had to continue their journey.
"Qingshuang, let's go."
Luo Chen said softly, with a hint of determination in his eyes.
Qingshuang nodded, she knew that Luo Chen was right.
They have done the best they can and now it is time to move on and pursue their own paths.
The two packed their bags and set off on the road to their next destination. The moment they left, the residents of the town waved goodbye to them, their eyes full of gratitude and respect.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang responded with a smile, their hearts filled with hope and expectation for the future.
In the blink of an eye, it was several days later.
After leaving the town, Luo Chen had no plans to return to Tianji Pavilion.
Basically all his problems have been solved, and now he can be said to be free from worries.
"Why do I feel like I forgot something."
Suddenly, Luo Chen couldn't help but frowned slightly.
As he was thinking, his eyes suddenly lit up, and then he said: "Yes, I remember that in order to earn spirit stones, I consigned some things to the auction house in the Xiuxian Market. Now I don't know if those things have been sold."
Luo Chen's thoughts drifted back to a while ago, when in order to raise some spirit stones, he sent some items he no longer needed to the auction house in the Xiuxian Market.
He remembered that he did not pay much attention to the item at the time and simply handed it to the person in charge of the auction house and agreed to split the profits after the auction.
Now, he suddenly thought of this matter, and couldn't help but wonder whether those items had found buyers.
"Qingshuang, I suddenly remembered those things that I consigned to the auction house in Fangshi before. I have to go check out the situation." Luo Chen turned and said to Qingshuang.
Qingshuang smiled slightly and nodded, "Then let's go to the market and take a look. Maybe we can also buy some items we need."
The two then changed direction and headed towards the Immortal Cultivator Market.
The market town was still bustling with activity, and the various stalls were filled with a wide variety of items, ranging from magical herbs and medicines to magical weapons and artifacts.
Luo Chen and Qingshuang walked through the crowd and came to the door of the auction house.
The door of the auction house was beautifully decorated, with two guards in uniform standing at the door.
Luo Chen walked forward and explained his purpose to one of the guards.
After hearing this, the guards respectfully invited them in and led them to the manager in charge of the auction affairs.
The steward was a middle-aged man. When he saw Luo Chen and Qing Shuang, he immediately stood up and greeted them with a smile.
"Fellow Daoist Luo Chen, you are finally here. We were just about to send you a message."
Luo Chen was slightly stunned, then asked: "Oh? What happened?"
The steward took out a thick stack of spirit stone bags from the cabinet behind him and handed them to Luo Chen.
"The auction of your items was very successful. This is the spiritual stone you deserve."
Luo Chen took the bag of spirit stones, weighed it, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
"Thank you, Steward. I didn't expect it to go so smoothly."
The steward nodded and continued, "Not only that, there are several customers who are very interested in the items you consigned. They hope to contact you directly. What do you think?"
Luo Chen pondered for a moment, then said: "Okay, but please tell them that I will only stay in the market for one day. If they are interested, please come as soon as possible."
The manager agreed and turned around to make arrangements.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang wandered around the auction house to see if there were any other items worth buying.
Just as they were browsing the various auction items, a woman in gorgeous clothes walked over and smiled at Luo Chen and Qing Shuang.
"My two fellow Daoists, I am a representative from Lingbao Pavilion. I heard that Daoist Luo Chen has some top-quality items for sale. Is it possible to discuss this?"
Luo Chen and Qingshuang looked at each other and nodded.
The woman led them to an elegant reception room. After the three of them sat down, the woman said straight to the point, "Daoist Luo Chen, on behalf of Lingbao Pavilion, I am very interested in the ancient sword you are consigning. I wonder if you are willing to give it up?"
Luo Chen pondered for a moment. He realized that the ancient sword was indeed something he had obtained by chance. Although it was of good quality, it was not a necessity for him.
He looked at Qingshuang, who nodded slightly to show her support for his decision.
"Since Lingbao Pavilion is interested, I am naturally willing to sell it." Luo Chen said slowly, "However, I hope to exchange more than just spirit stones."
A gleam of light flashed in the woman's eyes, and she asked, "What does Daoist Luo Chen want?"
"I need some special materials for refining magical weapons." Luo Chen replied.
The woman thought for a moment, then said, "We can satisfy this, but it will take some time to prepare."
"No problem, I can stay in the market for a day." Luo Chen emphasized again.
After the deal was done, the woman said goodbye and went to prepare the materials, while Luo Chen and Qing Shuang continued to stroll around the market.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang continued to stroll in the market. They moved among the bustling crowd, occasionally stopping to carefully observe the items displayed on the stalls.
Luo Chen suddenly stopped and his eyes fell on an inconspicuous corner stall.
There were some materials that looked like scrap metal, which attracted me.
The owner of the stall was an old man with wrinkles all over his face, but his eyes revealed a sharp light.
He sat on a worn wooden chair and didn't seem to care much about the passers-by.
Luo Chen walked forward, squatted down, and carefully looked through the seemingly useless materials.
"These materials seem a little unusual." Luo Chen whispered to himself, his eyes lingering for a moment on a seemingly ordinary piece of iron.
When the old man heard Luo Chen's words, he raised his head slightly and said in a hoarse voice: "Young man, you have a good eye. These materials are all collected by me from ancient ruins. Each one has its own unique features."
Qingshuang also came over and looked at the materials curiously. She asked softly, "Do these materials have any special uses?"
The old man smiled and pointed at the piece of iron: "For example, this piece of iron may look ordinary, but it can withstand extremely high temperatures without deforming. It is an excellent material for refining fire-attributed magical instruments."
Luo Chen's mind moved. He needed such materials to refine a magical instrument, so he asked, "Old man, how much is this piece of iron?"
The old man held up three fingers and said, "This is the price, no bargaining."
Luo Chen was slightly stunned. He didn't expect the old man to ask for such a high price.
He pondered for a moment, then said, "This price is a little beyond my expectations. Can we negotiate it?"
The old man shook his head and said, "Young man, the value of these materials cannot be measured by spirit stones. If you really need them, this price is already very fair."
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang looked at each other. They knew that what the old man said made sense.
Luo Chen took out some spirit stones from his arms and handed them to the old man: "Okay, deal."
The old man took the spirit stone and nodded with satisfaction: "Young man, you have a good eye. I hope you can make good use of these materials."
After the transaction was completed, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang continued to stroll around the market.
They were all in a good mood. Luo Chen got the materials he needed, and Qingshuang was full of expectations for Luo Chen's refining skills.
"Luo Chen, when do you plan to start refining magic tools?" Qing Shuang asked curiously. (End of this chapter)
