Chapter 2047

Sheng Kuafu wanted to invite Zhang Hao, but Gu Chen said that Hai Hong didn't like Zhang Hao, and the Sea Clan didn't like to hang out with too many land cultivators.

Sheng Kuafu thought it made sense, so he gave up on the idea.

The three great auction halls weren't far from each other, and they were all on the same street. When everyone was about to arrive, the street was bustling with cultivators, rubbing shoulders with one another.

"I'm going to the Heaven Auction Hall. You two kids can stroll around the Earth Auction Hall."

Hai Dong Xin said at the fork of the street.

"Yes, Uncle Dong."

Hai Xuan and her brother said obediently. Then, Hai Dongxin left alone.

"Should we go to the Heavenly Hall as well? I heard that you spared no expense to find a few unique auction items, and they're all in the Heavenly Hall, "Sheng Kuafu said with a smile.

"No matter how precious the items in the Heavenly Hall are, we can't afford them. It's better to keep an eye on the Earth Hall. Who knows, we might be pleasantly surprised."

Hai Xuan shook her head. She still had some self-awareness. She and Sheng Kuafu were still young, even though they were heavily cultivated in their respective clans. How could they compete with the elders who had real power in their clans and sects in terms of wealth?

Moreover, even the Great Sages would bid for the truly precious auction items in the Heavenly Hall, so it was definitely not their turn.

"Sigh, even if it's just to broaden my horizons, it's not bad."

Sheng Kuafu had already obtained what he wanted from the Heavenly Sea Palace, so his enthusiasm for participating in the auction had dropped significantly. He wanted to see more of the legendary treasures.

"The auction will last for three days. Those unique treasures won't appear on the first day. There's a high chance that they'll be the finale."

Sheng Kuafu thought it was reasonable, so he no longer insisted on going to the Heavenly Hall. Instead, he said, "Then, which hall should we go to?"

"Second Underground Hall," Gu Chen said at this moment.

"Why?" Everyone was stunned.

"Because we're in the Second Mountain and Sea."

Gu Chen said with a straight face. He took the lead and walked in the direction of the second underground hall.

The other three cultivators were left speechless. Did the Second Mountain and Sea have anything to do with the Second Underground Hall?

They didn't care which hall they were going to, so they followed behind Gu Chen.

Soon, they arrived at the second hall. The auction hall was heavily guarded, and Sword Firmament Pavilion's disciples could be seen patrolling the alleys.

There was already a long queue at the entrance, and there were people from the Ghost Parade in charge of receiving them.

The four of them followed the procession into the auction hall, and they could occasionally hear about the attack on the banquet last night.

"That Madam Du of the Secluded Street Parade did not get her position right after all. That's why the elders are trying to seize power. But what's the point of just attacking the banquet? There's something fishy going on. "

Hai Xuan casually said as she listened to the discussion around her.

"Wrong position? Does Miss Hai Xuan know anything about Madam Du? "Gu Chen's heart was moved.

"I don't know, but there are seniors in my clan who have interacted with the Fierce Demon Saint before."

Hai Xuan explained, "There are many suspicious points about the death of the Fierce Demon Saint. After his death, his only son was missing, which led to the Ghost Parade falling into the hands of Madam Du. This Madam Du is indeed skillful. In just a few years, she managed to gain a firm foothold in the Ghost Parade Street and obtained the support of most of the elders. However, there are still some rumors in the dark. "

"The Fierce Demon Saint has a son?"

A strange light flashed in Gu Chen's eyes. He had asked about the Fierce Demon Saint's past during the Ghost Parade Street Parade Street, but he did not hear that the Fierce Demon Saint had a son.

"Yes, it's said that the Fierce Demon Saint's son was extremely ugly when he was born. His father did not like him, so very few people know about his existence. The seniors in my clan also learned about this by chance. It's funny, it's said that the Fierce Demon Saint himself was also very ugly. Otherwise, he wouldn't have such a fierce name. But he still disliked the existence of his son. "

"At the level of the Fierce Demon Saint, would he care about things like appearance?"

Sheng Kuafu listened with some doubt.

"Who knows? Anyway, that's what the seniors in my clan said. "

Hai Xuan shrugged. She was just telling everyone an interesting story. As for whether it was true or not, the Fierce Demon Saint was dead. Did it still matter?

The few of them talked and laughed as they entered the auction hall. After hearing that the Fierce Demon Saint had a son, Gu Chen fell into deep thought and did not say much.

It wasn't time yet, but the auction hall was already bustling with noise. There was a sea of people. Gu Chen and the other three found a corner to sit down and quietly waited for the auction to begin.

There were also Sword Pavilion disciples maintaining order in the auction hall. They were scattered in all directions of the hall.

Gu Chen looked around, and when he caught a glimpse of a beautiful figure not far from the auction stage, he could not help but freeze.

It was Chu Meixin again!

Although the two of them were in the same city, there were as many cultivators in Binhai City as there were carps in the river. It was truly a coincidence that they met again and again.

If the person in the dark chooses to attack in the second hall, this place will definitely be in chaos. As a disciple of Sword Pavilion, Chu Meixin will probably bear the brunt of the danger.

As Gu Chen pondered, he frowned slightly and glanced at the three people beside him.

The existence of Hai Hong and her brother wasn't beneficial for him to take action after the matter happened. Therefore, he had called Sheng Kuafu over.

Sheng Kuafu wasn't around. If he, who was in charge of leading the way, suddenly disappeared, it would definitely arouse the suspicions of Hai Hong and her brother. However, with Sheng Kuafu around, it wouldn't be difficult for him to find an excuse to temporarily leave the team for a period of time.

This was also the real reason why he stopped Sheng Kuafu from calling Zhang Hao over. Zhang Hao was too capable and quick-witted, so he was not easy to deal with. After all, Gu Chen was a little worried about playing tricks in front of him.

It was already troublesome to act without arousing the suspicion of Hai Hong and the other two. Chu Meixin came to add to the trouble, which really gave Gu Chen a headache.

No matter what, Chu Meixin was a friend from his hometown. It wasn't appropriate for Gu Chen to stand by idly when she was in danger.

The time was up.

The beautiful emcee carefully selected by Ghost Parade walked onto the stage and gave a standard opening speech.

Chu Meixin stood not far from the emcee. Today, she still looked noble and cold, forming a stark contrast with the enthusiastic emcee on stage.

The first auction item appeared. After a few rounds of intense competition, it was successfully auctioned off.

The second auction item, the third auction item, the fourth auction item …

The auction in the second underground hall was in full swing under the emcee's perfect control. The enthusiasm of the cultivators at the scene was getting higher and higher. They spent a lot of money for the auction items they liked, and some even fought until their faces turned red.

Gu Chen looked at the auction items on the stage indifferently. His mind had already spread to the whole venue, and he was alert to any movement.

At the same time, he also paid attention to the sound-transmitting charm used to contact the Clay Bodhisattva. The pace of the auction in the first underground hall should be roughly the same as that in the second underground hall. If there was any accident, the Clay Bodhisattva would inform him immediately.

"The next auction item is the most precious one today."

The beautiful female emcee stood in front of another auction item covered by a red cloth. Suddenly, she smiled mysteriously, attracting the attention of everyone, including Gu Chen.
