Chapter 176 The Extraordinary World (Please give me a monthly ticket! Please subscribe! 13)

In the Luotian Building, on the vermilion mahogany floor of the conference room on the 88th floor, Yi Su's voice echoed in everyone's ears.

Slender legs, delicate features, fluttering red skirt, lazy and comfortable.

Yi Su smiled faintly, as if he had never intended to hide his identity as a demon.

Neither the Ten Great Families, the Ming Dynasty, nor the Magic Association showed any surprise.

They seemed to have known long ago that the woman in red in front of them was a demon.

But the mortals present couldn't help but open their eyes wide and look at Yi Su. Is it possible that the boss of this auction is a monster?

In previous explanations, monsters refer to supernatural lives that exist in the world other than humans and gods, that is, phenomena or things that are temporarily difficult for people to explain scientifically due to cognitive limitations.

The monsters in mythology are transformed from animals, plants, and even non-living things that have failed to cultivate immortality. Of course, they also include some humans and animals who have failed to cultivate immortality.

Monsters in a broad sense refer to all objects that are neither gods, immortals, nor humans and have super powers or magic.

"Soushen Ji" says: Monsters are the essence of things that depend on objects.

It is hard to imagine that even though everyone has realized the changes of the times and accepted the existence of ascetics and even gods, demons still seem to be far away from everyone.

However, now the proprietress in red has admitted that she is a demon, as if demons have never been far away from this world.

They have always been in this world, by everyone's side.

This can't help but give people a creepy feeling that everyone around you could be a monster.

Wang Quan looked at the swaying figure of the woman in red. Her beauty lies in her bones, not in her skin. Her temperament is naturally elegant. The temperament of the woman in red is undoubtedly otherworldly, charming but not coquettish. She is full of the scent of the world but yet detached from it.

Like the quicksand that cannot be grasped in the mist.

She is so beautiful that it makes people's heart beat fast, but she doesn't look any different from others.

“No matter how I look at it, I can’t tell that this woman in red is a demon.” Wang Quan said secretly in his heart, marveling even more at the unpredictability and mystery of the extraordinary world.

In this world, all legends may be true.

This is no longer the world they are familiar with.

The extraordinary world itself is beyond people's imagination.

"In ancient times, monsters transformed into humans, but I don't know what kind of monster this red-dressed proprietress is." Wang Quan thought to himself.

However, Yi Su completely ignored everyone's gazes and continued bargaining with Li Changge of Longxi Li family.

"But... still have to compare with others."

"Yes!" Li Changge nodded.

"Three drops of turbid water!"

As soon as Li Changge finished speaking, a voice rang out.

Cui Ren publicly called out the price.

This is the Qinghe Cui family, whose “faces are nowhere to be seen, but peach blossoms still smile in the spring breeze” and which is the head of the “Four Great Families”.

The Qinghe Cui family was one of the nobles of Qi State during the Spring and Autumn Period. They lived in Qinghe County during the Western Han Dynasty. After the Eastern Han Dynasty, they became a prominent family in Shandong. Among them, Cui Yan once became a disciple of Cao Cao.

In the Western Jin Dynasty, people paid great attention to the family background of the aristocracy, and the Cui family was listed as the first of the first-class surnames “Cui, Lu, Wang, and Xie”.

The Qinghe Cui family served in the Northern Dynasties for a long time. During the Northern Wei Dynasty, they were once called the "Four Great Families" together with the Fanyang Lu family, the Xingyang Zheng family, and the Taiyuan Wang family.

Its background is unfathomable!

Cui Rengong was in a dilemma, but he was helpless. Who doesn’t have a younger generation who is not very lucky?

Yi Su's black and white eyes lit up for a moment, and he smiled and said, "The turbid water is something that is hard to find in the world. The thousand-year heritage of the ten great families is indeed extraordinary."

"The Zhuyou Water is the coldest place in the world. It is said that only one drop of water is produced in the underworld every five hundred years. It can greatly improve the cultivation of those who practice the Yin and Cold Way. Compared with the Zhu Fruit, this thing is originally more valuable."

At this point, Yi Su changed the subject and said, "But... after all, I am a demon, and also a woman. When these two things are put together, I will always prefer the red fruit."

Her voice was soft, yet it carried a kind of graceful grandeur.

Yi Su had just finished evaluating the Turbid Water when another voice rang out:

"A mermaid tear!"

The one who spoke was Lu Wenyi from the Fanyang Lu family.

"Youyan has been an unrivaled place since ancient times, and Fanyang is the number one state in the world." The Lu family of Fanyang is the second of the "Four Great Families."

During the time of Qin Shi Huang, the Fanyang Lu family included the famous Doctor of the Five Classics Lu Ao and Doctor of Astronomy Lu Sheng.

Later, in the early Western Han Dynasty, there was Lu Wan, the Prince of Yan, and in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, there was Lu Zhi, a great Confucian scholar who was honored as “a model for scholars and a pillar of the country”, both of whom were from Fan Yang.

During the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties and the Sui Dynasty, Lu Zhi's descendants Lu Zhi, Lu Chen, Lu Yan, Lu Miao, Lu Xuan, etc., were all from official families and scholarly families.

From Lu Xuan to his great-grandson, the family of one hundred people lived together with shared wealth. There were 18 people who were famous officials and recorded in historical records.

The sons of the imperial family wanted to marry the Lu family, and history records that "the Lu family of Fanyang had three princesses in one family". The imperial family also wanted to take the daughter of the Lu family of Fanyang as a concubine. Historians have said that the four great surnames of Cui, Lu, Wang, and Xie are "the descendants of Fanyang, the most powerful family in the northern states".

This was particularly prominent in the Tang Dynasty, which produced not only top scorers in the imperial examinations, but also many talented people, including Lu Zhaolin, one of the "Eight Ministers Assisting the Tang Dynasty" and the "Four Heroes of the Early Tang Dynasty", Lu Bian, one of the "Ten Talents of the Dali Period", and so on.

During the more than 600 years from the end of the Han Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, there were more than 840 historical celebrities of the Lu family recorded in the official history. The Fanyang Lu family produced many virtuous people, brilliant achievements, and famous writers.

For more than two thousand years, it has been famous in the monastic community.

"When the moon shines on the sea, pearls shed tears. When the sun shines on the blue field, jade emits smoke. The tears of mermaids are also rare treasures that only exist in heaven. If an ordinary person eats this thing, it can increase their lifespan by 50 years, and they can move freely underwater. More importantly, if someone who practices water magic swallows it, it can replace several years of hard training."

Yi Su Zhu opened her lips slightly and said: "This thing is really good, but in my opinion it is still slightly inferior to the Red Fruit, but it is better than the Turbid Water."

"What about Lantian Yanyu?"

Master Xiao also started to bid.

"Two emperors and nine prime ministers", the Xiao family of Lanling was also a wealthy and noble family in the world. They prospered with the Tang Dynasty and dominated the world for a time.

Master Xiao said, "I have a bed carved from Lantian smoke jade. If you practice for one day, you can achieve the results of three days."

"Lantian Smoky Jade?"

Yi Su chuckled and said, "This thing is said to be extremely rare and has the effect of calming the mind. I didn't expect the Lanling Xiao family to be so generous and make it into a bed. This thing can be ranked first."

Yi Su reviewed each treasure one by one, and she knew every treasure by heart, as if there was no treasure she had not seen before.

Li Daoyi listened quietly. Half a year ago in Tanzhou, he plotted to steal the Marrow Cleansing Pill. He broke off three of the pills and swallowed one.

Only today did I know that this marrow cleansing pill has such a high value.

"It seems that I made a big profit from that gamble!" Li Daoyi said to himself.

He couldn't help but think of Bai Xiaosheng, the person who refined this pill. Bai Xiaosheng was truly unpredictable.

Everyone says that this elixir came from Bai Xiaosheng, and everyone knows that this elixir came from Bai Xiaosheng, but no one has ever wanted to get the elixir from him.

And this person can even talk about the whole world, and no one has any objection. He must have tremendous cultivation.

Thinking of this, Li Daoyi couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "The Ming Dynasty is really strong!"

The extra chapters for the 10,000-yuan reward will come later. I will try my best to finish the overdue updates first. There will be another chapter in the early morning.
