Serving as a Jinyiwei, starting from plundering the swordsmanship talent

Chapter 258 A harsh blow from reality! The landlord's foolish son
Or rather.

He was too naive because he lacked experience in the ways of the world.

Don't really think everyone will reason with you. This is a world of its own, where people will only reason with you when the strength is equal.

Once their strength surpasses yours.

That fist is the reason.

Thinking of this, Xie Fenghao couldn't help but laugh. He had figured it out, but Xie Fenghao had no intention of giving Ding Feichen any pointers.

Talk about it.

Ding Feichen's actions can be seen as taking advantage of the Xie family. Without the Xie family's auction, so many people wouldn't have been able to gather.

Naturally, there was no place for Ding Feichen to 'perform'!
,,,

The auction quickly resumed.

One auction item after another was brought up for auction.

Soon, the atmosphere at the auction returned to its previous 'lively' state, as if nothing had happened.

Neither Tian Zheng nor Ding Feichen said anything more.

Ye Liuyun looked bored; the items on display at this internal auction of the Xie family were indeed quite good.

If his cultivation level were still at the Innate or Grandmaster level, then a large part of this knowledge would be very useful to Ye Liuyun.

It's a pity that Ye Liuyun is already a Grandmaster.

Once you reach a certain level of strength, the effects of external objects become less important.

Or rather, Ye Liuyun would definitely look down on things of this level.

Seeing that Ye Liuyun had no intention of bidding at all.

Xie Ling'er didn't say anything more, but obediently sat to the side and poured tea for Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun thought so.

This auction might have just gone on like this, so boring, but I never expected it.

"clang!"

Just as the next item was brought out for auction, Ye Liuyun frowned slightly.

Ye Liuyun wasn't the only one surprised; many people present were astonished, not because they saw anything extraordinary about the auction items, but simply because they were enormous!

"what is this?"

"The clock?"

"What's the use of this thing?"

"Buy it so you can hear a sound?"

",,,"

Looking at the nearly three-meter-tall bronze bell on the stage, many people were completely bewildered. Although the thing looked quite old and rustic, they couldn't see any effect whatsoever.

In other words, the Xie family is the one who organized this auction.

Otherwise, everyone present would have thought that the Xie family was deliberately making fun of them.

Considering the Xie family's reputation, some people, even if they had doubts, said nothing and simply waited quietly for the Xie family's explanation.

"Everyone!"

After signaling for the bell bearers to leave, the person in charge of the event spoke with a broad smile.

"This bronze bell is a treasure that my Xie family acquired by chance. To be honest, even we Xie family members haven't figured out what specific uses it has."

"But one thing is certain: the defensive capabilities of this great bell are sufficient to withstand an attack from a Grandmaster!"

When Xie Fenghao first acquired this clock, he also tried to test its value.

I can't see any effect.

But even with all its might, it still couldn't budge it in the slightest.

There wasn't even a crack, which is enough to show the defensive capabilities of this bronze bell.

"this,,"

Upon hearing that it could withstand attacks from a Grandmaster, many people present had a brightening look in their eyes.

only.

"Even if something this big can withstand an attack from a Grandmaster, what good will it do?"

"Does this mean you can carry this huge bell in one hand while fighting?"

Even if one could use internal energy to control it, how much internal energy would be required to control such a large bell?
Although some people have doubts, it's not that no one wants it.

It may be a bit bulky, but there aren't many spiritual artifacts in the world that can withstand attacks from a Grandmaster.

"The starting price is one million taels. If anyone is interested, you can start bidding!"

After he finished speaking, there was a moment of silence.

Although some people were tempted, they didn't rush to bid, wanting to observe the situation of others around them first.

"one million!"

A moment later, someone made a bid.

The person who made the bid was Ye Liuyun.

"grown ups?"

Xie Ling'er looked surprised. She thought Ye Liuyun probably wouldn't have any items to his liking this time, but she didn't expect him to make a bid. She wondered why he would take a liking to this bell.

"It's just that I like the look of them!"

Ye Liuyun simply offered a brief explanation to Xie Ling'er's question.

Actually.

Ye Liuyun couldn't see anything special about the bronze bell either.

The moment this thing appeared, I had a strange feeling inside me: I must have it! I absolutely must have it!
It was as if a mysterious and ethereal fortune had bestowed upon him.

Combined with its own red-quality talent and luck attributes, it's obvious that this bronze bell is definitely not an ordinary item, perhaps even as valuable as the Starfall Immortal Scripture.

These are all things that can directly enhance one's own strength.

Moreover, Ye Liuyun hadn't forgotten that he had previously made a 'wish' to obtain a spiritual artifact that would be useful to him, and perhaps this was it.

"That's it!"

Although I don't understand the specific meaning, since Ye Liuyun has taken a liking to this bronze bell, it doesn't matter.

Just buy it.

"Did you finally film it?"

Xie Fenghao, who was backstage, had obviously also noticed Ye Liuyun bidding.

Feeling relieved.

It's not that I'm afraid Ye Liuyun will take a lot of photos, it's that I'm afraid Ye Liuyun won't take any at all.

,,,

"Two million and two million!"

Ye Liuyun could imagine that people would be bidding against each other.

Just didn't expect it.

The one making the bid is Tian Zheng, who had been quiet for a while. At this moment, Tian Zheng is looking at the bronze bell in front of him with longing.

That burning gaze seemed determined that no matter what happened, they had to get this thing.

"Ok?"

"I see, so that's what the entry means!"

Noticing the change in Tianzheng's expression, Ye Liuyun immediately realized what was going on.

Of course, it's not that everyone present was unaware, except for Tian Zheng, who knew the specific effects of the bronze bell. If that's the case, then there's another explanation.

Talent Attribute: Sensing (Blue)

"Senses (Blue): Occasionally, I experience inexplicable sensations towards certain things!"

These were the talent attributes Ye Liuyun had seen on Tian Zheng early on; they were only of blue quality, and Ye Liuyun hadn't taken them too seriously before.

But now it seems.

This talent attribute can occasionally produce unexpected and wonderful uses.

Presumably, Tian Zheng felt a strange connection to the bronze bell that day. Even if he didn't know why, he just felt that the bell was special and that he had to get his hands on it.

That's why they couldn't hold back and started asking for a price!

"Master?"

The guard standing nearby was taken aback again. Even if they were going to bid, there was no need to throw everything away at once.

And it's two million two hundred thousand.

Does this mean they have no intention of keeping anything at all?
You'd never guess that this clock could be worth 2.2 million.

Such a heavy object, yet it can be used with ease, must be of considerable cultivation. Even without this bronze bell, it probably wouldn't be too wary of a Grandmaster.

It seems utterly useless.

"Shut up!"

only.

The attendants hadn't even said anything yet.

Tian Zheng immediately reprimanded him, a stark contrast to his previous arrogant attitude.

"I must have this!"

He glanced coldly at the attendant, then looked intently at the bronze bell.

After being told that, what could the attendant say? He could only stand quietly to the side.

'What exactly is this feeling?'

'Never mind, I'll know once I have it in my hands.'

Tian Zheng didn't know why, but he had a strange feeling. It was as if a voice in his mind was telling him that if he missed out on this bronze bell, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

After Tianzheng called out the price, the surroundings were quiet for a moment.

Just when Tian Zheng thought that this thing was about to belong to him.

"Two million three hundred thousand!"

Ye Liuyun's calm voice came over.

Many people looked over in surprise, seemingly not expecting that someone would actually dare to compete with the son of the Sword Demon King.

However, some people were no longer surprised when they saw that it was Ye Liuyun. These people were obviously those who had witnessed what happened in the front yard not long ago.

"who is it!"

What was almost within my grasp is about to slip away.

Tian Zheng naturally couldn't stand it. He immediately glared at Ye Liuyun, who was sitting calmly in his chair, sipping his tea with a fierce look.

"How dare you try to take it from me? Do you know who my father is?"

Tian Zheng was unaware that even though he had the money, Xie Fenghao had already planned to bid even higher and then give the winning ticket to Ye Liuyun when he saw Ye Liuyun make the offer.

Even at their own auction, they still have to follow some rules.

Right now, Tian Zheng just feels that Ye Liuyun stole his things.

Fighting was out of the question, so he directly brought up his father to threaten Ye Liuyun.

"You shouldn't ask me who your father is; you should ask your mother."

These words might threaten others, but they won't threaten Ye Liuyun.

They couldn't even be bothered to lift their eyelids.

"What, didn't your mother tell you who your father is?"

",,,"

An eerie silence fell over the surroundings.

I thought there might be people who weren't afraid of Tianzheng's father, but I really didn't expect Ye Liuyun to answer like that: Go back and ask your mother? Hmm, he's just completely torn off the mask!

Don't even think about it.

Tianzheng's face immediately turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

"you wanna die!"

He was the kind of person with a strong sense of self-respect, so how could he tolerate others talking about him like that? He slammed his fist on the table and stood up, glaring fiercely at Ye Liuyun.

"How dare you humiliate me like this! Kill him!"

Without a word, he directly commanded his followers to kill Ye Liuyun.

"this,,"

The attendant hesitated for a moment.

They didn't recognize Ye Liuyun, but judging from his casual demeanor and the fact that he seemed to completely disregard them, it was clear that Ye Liuyun either possessed considerable power or not.

Either they have powerful connections.

They are the kind of people who can't get things easily.

Now that we're on someone else's turf, we're even more unsure whether to take action.

"What are you hesitating for? Aren't you going to listen to me? Don't forget who you work for!"

",,,"

Of course you're here to work for your dad, what are you doing here?

The attendant muttered something under his breath, somewhat speechless.

He had already decided that after this incident, he would stay far away from that landlord's foolish son. With that kind of reckless behavior, he would eventually bring about his own demise.

"excuse me!"

But now.

Considering Tian Zheng's identity, the attendant adjusted his breathing and then mobilized his internal energy, preparing to attack Ye Liuyun.

They're actually going to make a move?

Many people present became interested, seemingly curious about how things would develop.

afraid?
Just kidding, in this situation, it wouldn't scare Ye Liuyun.

The original plan was to take direct action.

But after realizing what was happening, they decided against taking any action.

"enough!"

Just as the attendant finished circulating his internal energy...

Backstage at the auction, a majestic and deep voice rang out. The powerful aura caused Tian Zheng's attendants to stagger back several steps, their newly activated internal energy instantly shattered.

His blood and qi surged, and his face turned pale.

Apart from a few with decent cultivation levels, many people present were influenced by this aura.

next moment.

Xie Fenghao slowly walked out from behind the stage.

Upon seeing that it was Xie Fenghao, many people immediately stepped forward.

"Thank you, Master!"

"So it's Patriarch Xie! I was wondering whose aura was so domineering!"

"As expected of Patriarch Xie!"

",,,"

With Xie Fenghao's strength and status, he was enough to command their respect.

Xie Fenghao merely glanced around before his gaze settled on Tian Zheng.

"As the head of the Xie family, I am naturally pleased to welcome Young Master Tian with his presence today. However, if Young Master Tian intends to cause trouble on my Xie family's territory, then don't blame me for turning hostile!"

He was already planning how to recruit Ye Liuyun.

How could they possibly tolerate Ye Liuyun being offended like this on their own turf?

The attendant had now calmed his surging blood and qi and stood directly behind Tian Zheng.

Anyway, it has nothing to do with me. I'm just following orders. If I'm going to cause trouble, I should go after this young master.

"Xie Fenghao!"

Tian Zheng also did not expect that...

The fact that Xie Fenghao, the head of the Xie family, actually showed up is the only reason things have developed to this point.

He was indeed a grandmaster, just like his father.

Although he felt resentful and displeased, as if he had been slighted, Tian Zheng managed to keep his composure and looked Xie Fenghao straight in the eye.

"Patriarch Xie, I didn't cause trouble today on purpose. This person was disrespectful to my father, and you must have heard it just now. I believe that even if my father were here today, he would be furious to hear such words!"

Although I can't beat you, Xie Fenghao, my father is the Demon King of Blades.

Moreover, just thinking about what Ye Liuyun had just said made Tianzheng feel so angry that his liver hurt.

What the hell.

I've never heard anyone say that about me before, it's so infuriating.

Tianzheng said such things.

He wanted to use his father's prestige to make Xie Fenghao obediently submit.

I still don't believe it. Although I don't know who Ye Liuyun is, he's so young. Even if he has some background, he can't compare to my father.

Thinking of this, Tianzheng's expression suddenly became much more confident.

It seems like it's a done deal.

It's as if Xie Fenghao will definitely stand on my side.

only.

"Young Master Ye is my distinguished guest!"

Xie Fenghao merely glanced at Tian Zheng indifferently, his expression remaining completely unchanged despite Tian Zheng mentioning his father.

"If Young Master Tian has nothing else, you may leave!"

",,,"

As soon as these words came out.

Not to mention Tianzheng himself, many people present were surprised, except for some who knew about Ye Liuyun's situation.

Many people don't understand how someone like Xie Fenghao could possibly break ties with a Grandmaster.

The Xie family's family motto of cultivating good relationships is known to many throughout the world.

I've never heard of Xie Fenghao deliberately making an enemy of a Grandmaster.

When Xie Fenghao came out, everyone thought that at most he would just try to smooth things over and let things pass, but they didn't expect him to be so tough!

So, who exactly is this?
Ye Liuyun could sense that many people present were looking in his direction.

He seemed to be pondering who this young man was, that Xie Fenghao could stand so firmly beside him.

"what are you saying!"

When Tianzheng recovered from his shock, his gaze toward Xie Fenghao turned incredibly ugly.

There are so many people around.

If I just let it go like this, how will I ever face anyone in the underworld again? For those in the underworld, what matters most is their reputation.

"Do you even know who my father is, Patriarch Xie? You have insulted my father like this. When I get back, I will report this to my father and he will make sure your Xie family doesn't get away with it!"

He himself might not be able to beat Xie Fenghao, but his father might be a different story.

",,,"

Xie Fenghao remained expressionless.

Since Xie Fenghao chose to stand up and say this, he already had a plan.

He looked at Tian Zheng with a cold gaze.

"In that case, if your father came, it would have some deterrent effect, but what about you?"

Xie Fenghao did not say what came next directly.

But everyone can see what it means. It's obvious that they look down on Tian Zheng. Does someone who isn't even at the Acquired Realm really think he can act arrogantly in front of them just because he has a good father?

Not to mention that Xie Fenghao himself was not afraid of Dao Mo Tian Kuang behind Tian Zheng.

Even if things escalate into a commotion.

Xie Fenghao didn't think that Dao Mo Tian Kuang would offend him, the head of the Xie family, because of a son with mediocre cultivation talent.

How dare you humiliate me like this!

"My father will not let you get away with this!"

I understood the contempt in Xie Fenghao's eyes!

This drove Tianzheng even more crazy.

The arrogant young master, who was used to being arrogant, was being beaten down by reality for the first time, and it was understandable that he found it hard to accept.

Xie Fenghao had no interest in continuing to talk to such a brainless person.

He simply waved to the people around him.

"Come here, see the guests off!"

Do you really think you have no connection with Dao Mo Tian Kuang?
