Serving as a Jinyiwei, starting from plundering the swordsmanship talent

Chapter 256 Truly, a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger!

"Not bad!"

Ye Liuyun couldn't help but glance at Xie Ling'er a few more times.

From this perspective, Xie Ling'er is actually smarter and more useful than I imagined.

Hearing Ye Liuyun say this.

Xie Ling'er couldn't help but laugh.

It wasn't for nothing that I crammed some information last night; I wasn't lying to Ye Liuyun. Back when Sister Xie wasn't valued, Xie Ling'er did all she did besides secretly improving her cultivation and studying these materials.

But after so many years, Xie Ling'er could only recall bits and pieces of some of the information.

Fortunately, I watched it a few more times on a whim last night, so I didn't embarrass myself.

"correct!"

Take back your emotions.

Xie Ling'er, having thought of something, immediately spoke to Ye Liuyun.

"Over the years, in addition to accumulating a lot of cultivation resources, the family has also collected a lot of secrets of the martial arts world. If you have any news that you are curious about, you should be able to find relevant information in the Xie family."

It's not just the Xie family; many top families collect secrets and anecdotes about the martial arts world.

Ye Liuyun nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

It seems so.

The Xie family's value is higher than imagined, but that's normal. Only those with value can be utilized. If they had nothing, then perhaps they would be useless after attending this auction.

So the Xie family has nothing to do with me anymore!
finally.

That top-grade spiritual artifact was sold to the son of the Sword Demon Heavenly Madness for 800,000.

to be frank.

The price of 800,000 is clearly not worthy of a top-grade spiritual weapon.

Even if it's not a weapon of killing, it's still easy to sell it for over a million.

No one bid at all, and it was sold for a low price. Obviously, the others present were unwilling to offend Dao Mo Tian Kuang's son for a support-type spiritual artifact.

The same is true for the Xie family.

Even if the price wasn't good, and they even lost some money.

But the person in charge of the auction still handed over the auction items with a smile.

"Humph!"

This scene, on the contrary, made the son of Dao Mo Tian Kuang appear even more confident.

Not only did they not express their gratitude, but they also failed to say thank you.

Instead, he gave an arrogant snort and glanced around smugly, seemingly believing that having a father at the Grandmaster level meant he could do whatever he wanted.

This situation.

Many people frowned upon seeing this.

Unfortunately, although many people present could see through him, they all held back because of the Blade Demon Tian Kuang behind him.

,,,

The auction continues.

After the superior-grade spiritual artifact.

There are other things too.

In addition to elixirs and spiritual herbs, there are also spiritual artifacts that complement the cultivation techniques.

It is a mid-grade spiritual weapon of the spear type, and it is not sold separately, but auctioned together with a top-grade spear technique manual.

Don't underestimate this mid-grade spiritual weapon; it's a weapon of destruction. Combined with a top-grade cultivation technique, the effects it produces are far more than just one plus one equals two.

Just like what happened to Lü Lan.

The cold jade sword in his hand, combined with the cold and yin-type martial arts techniques.

Even when he was still at the mid-stage of the Innate Realm, he was already able to fight against martial artists at the late-stage of the Innate Realm, truly fighting beyond his realm.

"two millions!"

One young man in the crowd couldn't resist and stood up to bid.

The young man also had a long spear on his back, indicating that he was a martial artist who wielded a spear. That was why he was so impatient after seeing such an auction item!

"Two million and two million!"

"Two million seven hundred thousand!"

"I'll offer three million!"

",,,"

Unfortunately, as soon as the price was announced, other people made bids, and it quickly surpassed three million.

Obviously.

There are quite a few people interested in these matching auction items.

"Doesn't the master have anything he likes?"

Xie Ling'er had no interest in these auction items, nor in who was bidding on them.

However, after so many items were auctioned off, Ye Liuyun hadn't made a single bid, which made Xie Ling'er somewhat curious.

I thought Ye Liuyun would prefer this type of weapon for killing.

"A mid-grade spiritual weapon paired with a specialized top-grade cultivation technique is indeed quite good, but unfortunately, it's meaningless to me!"

After acquiring the Starfall Immortal Scripture, Ye Liuyun no longer has much emotion towards any type of cultivation technique.

Too much to chew.

This Starfall Immortal Scripture is a cultivation method sufficient for me to reach the realm of a terrestrial immortal, and perhaps even go further.

If that's the case, then what's the point of coveting other cultivation techniques? It's completely meaningless.

"That's it!"

Xie Ling'er had no idea what Ye Liuyun was thinking.

But it can be seen.

Ye Liuyun clearly looked down on these things, nodded slightly, and said casually.

"If you don't find anything you like, then after the auction, I can take you to the family's treasury. I'm sure there will be something you'll like there!"

"Aren't you afraid people will talk about you behind your back since you're taking me there so openly?"

In any case, other people's treasure troves are always more hidden, right?

"Why should we care about other people's opinions? As long as the adults are happy, that's all that matters. Besides, this is probably what the family would like to see!"

Previously, there wasn't enough information, so even though Xie Ling'er was very smart, she couldn't analyze many things immediately.

But right now.

After learning that the two elders of the family had tested Ye Liuyun not long ago.

Xie Ling'er then realized that all of this was arranged by the family head, Xie Fenghao. If she took Ye Liuyun to the Xie family's treasury, Xie Fenghao would probably not only not be angry, but would be extremely happy.

after all.

In that case, you could say you've established a relationship with Ye Liuyun.

"clever!"

Seeing Xie Ling'er like this, Ye Liuyun chuckled softly.

It's better to be smart. Ye Liuyun doesn't like stupid people. Of course, the most important thing is that Ye Liuyun is confident that with his strength, he can handle even the smartest woman.

,,,

"Has the auction not started yet?"

The backstage area of ​​the auction.

Xie Fenghao only made a brief appearance at the very beginning, and then disappeared from the scene.

But in fact, Xie Fenghao had been standing backstage the whole time, observing the situation at the auction.

Seeing that Ye Liuyun hadn't auctioned off a single item, Xie Fenghao couldn't help but frown.

As I mentioned before, if Ye Liuyun liked anything at the auction, I would pay for it for him. This was partly as an apology, and partly as a way of exchanging favors.

But Ye Liuyun didn't auction off a single item, which is a bit of a problem.

"Perhaps, they just don't think it's good enough for them!"

Xie Fenghao pondered to himself.

Come to think of it, Xie Fenghao then recalled the information he had gathered from his investigation.

Ye Liuyun was not the kind of penniless swordsman who obtained all his money by robbing others.

With the backing of the Great Qian Dynasty's court and a relatively high status, he could easily get whatever he wanted with just a word. He lacked nothing, so it was normal for Ye Liuyun to look down on the items that appeared at his auction.

"Looks like we'll have to go check out the treasure vault!"

However, Xie Fenghao was not disappointed.

Even if he doesn't care about these things, the Xie family has more than just this much wealth. Their treasure trove contains the Xie family's accumulated wealth over hundreds of years, and there will always be something that will catch Ye Liuyun's eye.

Anyway, as long as Ye Liuyun makes the choice, then the favor will be considered a successful transaction.

After that, things will probably be much simpler.

Thinking of this, the gloom on Xie Fenghao's face dissipated considerably.

But that's it.

"Homeowner!"

Suddenly, a member of the Xie family whispered Xie Fenghao's name.

"Ok?"

I was just imagining that the Xie family might be able to go even further in the future.

My thoughts were suddenly interrupted, and when I came to my senses, I looked over with obvious dissatisfaction.

"what's up?"

She noticed that Xie Fenghao's mood was a little off.

The Xie family member didn't dare to hesitate and quickly pointed in a direction, speaking cautiously to Xie Fenghao.

"Master, head of the family! Look over there, shouldn't we do something about it?"

Originally, he could only be described as having a bit of a temper.

But when they looked in the direction he was being pointed at, Xie Fenghao's face immediately darkened.

"That piece of trash!"

Just now.

At the very front, still the son of the Sword Demon Tian Kuang, looked at the spears and martial arts techniques on the auction stage.

Finally, unable to resist the urge, I was about to raise my hand.

But just as he raised his hand, he was suddenly stopped by a servant standing nearby.

Since he was the son of a Grandmaster, he naturally didn't come to the Xie family's auction alone. He was accompanied by a follower whose cultivation level was not low, having already reached the late stage of the Innate Realm.

"Young Master, these two items are good, but Master said that you should only focus on practicing swordsmanship. Practicing too many things will easily lead to being a jack of all trades and master of none!"

Since he can be called the Demon of the Blade.

His swordsmanship was naturally superb, but as the son of the Sword Demon, he didn't have much talent for swordsmanship.

Let alone innate martial arts, he's not even an acquired martial artist yet.

Can be biased.

Dao Mo Tian Kuang was also a very stubborn person. What use was his son if he didn't inherit his swordsmanship?
Even if you have no talent for swordsmanship, you still have to practice swordsmanship, practice to the point of exhaustion.

"If you don't tell my father, how will he know!"

Tianzheng looked very unhappy.

This attendant was his father's subordinate, not loyal to him.

"My talent just doesn't lie in swordsmanship. As long as I acquire this spear technique and weapon, I can break through to the acquired level, and even the innate level. At that time, my father will definitely value me again!"

Tianzheng was getting a little anxious.

There was nothing he could do. His mother had passed away early, and his father had valued him and personally taught him swordsmanship.

In recent years, perhaps realizing that Tianzheng has no talent for swordsmanship, even though they still force Tianzheng to practice swordsmanship, they have also shown a hint of giving up on Tianzheng.

Plus.

The concubine that her father had recently married had given birth to another son for him.

This made Tianzheng even more anxious.

This means that even though he was only a few years old, once he reached a certain age, he fully displayed some talent in swordsmanship, and his father might really have to give up on him completely.

Think of this.

Tianzheng couldn't wait any longer.

Tianzheng was able to attend this auction at the Xie family's residence after much pleading with his father.

Besides wanting to impress his father, he also hoped to find something suitable for himself at the auction.

Tian Zheng felt that the spear was a perfect fit for him.

As long as one cultivates to the Innate Realm, or even the Grandmaster Realm.

Even if he doesn't master the sword technique, his father will surely consider his cultivation level and strength and won't give up on him anymore.

",,,"

Seeing Tianzheng's anxious expression.

The follower was a little exasperated. "No, you don't have a talent for swordsmanship, but what makes you think you have a talent for spearmanship?"

They probably just wanted this mid-grade spiritual artifact and the accompanying cultivation technique.

"Young Master, we're afraid we don't have enough money this time!"

I am just a follower after all, and I certainly can't speak to someone who is too ruthless.

But these two items are already priced at five million, and they only brought three million with them this time. How are they going to buy them?
"rest assured!"

Upon hearing this, Tianzheng was no longer worried and looked relaxed.

He seemed quite confident in acquiring the two items, and even patted his entourage on the shoulder.

"Just watch me!"

"???"

Are you looking at me? What are you looking at?
The attendant was clearly a little taken aback and wanted to say something, but it was obviously too late.

At this moment, Tianzheng saw that someone was still bidding, so he stood up.

"Everyone!"

The sudden turn of events startled those who were bidding, causing them to stop and all turn to look in that direction.

Because of what just happened, everyone now knows the son of Dao Mo Tian Kuang.

No one spoke; they were all clearly curious. Then, Tian Zheng suddenly stood up, wanting to do something.

"My father is the Demon of the Blades, Tian Kuang!"

Tianzheng said the same thing again.

"As many people know, my father has been in seclusion for the past few years. This spear and the cultivation technique should bring him some new ideas and help his cultivation."

"I hope you can all give me some face!"

After saying that, Tianzheng still had that confident look on his face.

It seems like it's a done deal.

As long as he points out his father's position, these people won't dare to take things from him.

",,,"

The attendant standing nearby was speechless. He had thought it was something serious, but it turned out to be a move to bring in backers.

However, upon closer reflection, it doesn't seem so strange.

Many others remained silent as well.

You've already said your father is a swordsman, now you want the secret manual of spear techniques, bringing new ideas.

Doesn't that sound like a contradiction?

Everyone's smart enough to see that Tianzheng himself wanted these two items; he was just using himself as a backer.

Some of those skilled with guns clearly couldn't hold back any longer.

His fists clenched involuntarily.

"This guy!"

Many of the martial artists present looked at Tian Zheng with a hint of killing intent in their eyes.

Cutting off someone's source of income is like killing their parents.

Although this doesn't directly cut off someone's livelihood, it certainly jeopardizes their future and prospects.

"Master!"

The attendant beside him, being at the late stage of the Innate Realm, clearly noticed the gazes and immediately reached out to pull Tian Zheng back down to sit.

pity.

It’s of no use!

Tian Zheng completely ignored his attendants. Seeing that no one present objected to his words, Tian Zheng's smile clearly carried a hint of arrogance.

As expected! As long as my father is alive, what does it matter if these people are more powerful than me?

"It seems everyone is quite willing to give me this face!"

Instead of stopping, he added another sentence.

Seeing that no one spoke, they turned their attention to the Xie family members on stage who were in charge of the auction.

"Since no one is going to continue the auction, this item is mine!"

really.

Even though some people were furious, Dao Mo Tian Kuang was still a Grandmaster, and that deterrent power was enough to force them to swallow their anger.

"Uh!"

The Xie family members on the stage were clearly stunned for a moment.

However, this isn't the first or second time such an internal auction has been held. Having been in charge of so many auctions, I've developed a certain mindset.

So they reacted quickly.

The Xie family members in charge of the auction immediately put on smiles and said to Tianzheng.

"Since Young Master Tianzheng likes them, of course they can be auctioned. The price has already reached 5.9 million. In that case, if Young Master Tianzheng bids 5.91 million, these two items will be Young Master Tianzheng's!"

Each bid starts at 10,000, which is considered a reasonable price.

only.

",,,"

Why do you still want money?
Tian Zheng frowned, clearly dissatisfied.

"I don't have 5.91 million. Those people just overcharged me. How could these two items be worth so much? Here's the deal: 2 million. These two items are mine!"

I brought a total of three million this time.

That top-grade spiritual artifact already cost 800,000.

The reason they didn't say they would give 2.2 million is...

Tianzheng simply wanted to leave himself 200,000 yuan to enjoy himself.

After saying this, Tian Zheng looked very confident, as if he felt that his price of two million was already very high, and the Xie family had no reason to refuse.

",,,"

As expected.

These words silenced the already quiet auction even more, to the point where you could hear a pin drop.

Xie Fenghao, who was backstage, also witnessed this scene, and his face immediately darkened.

Even if Tianzheng's father came in person, he wouldn't dare to be so arrogant. Is this young man really a fearless newborn calf?
Even the Xie family members hosting on stage couldn't quite suppress their smiles.

His lips twitched involuntarily.

"I'm really sorry, Young Master Tianzheng, there's no such rule at the auction, let alone bidding back. However, if Young Master Tianzheng doesn't have that much money on him, our Xie family can send someone to inform Senior Tiankuang."

Given his reputation as the "Knife Demon King," no one would believe that he truly couldn't produce these people.

just.

"Oh!"

Upon hearing this, Tianzheng slammed his fist on the table.

"What do you Xie family mean by this? Do you think my reputation isn't worth that much money?"
