"Me...a penniless wretch?"
Mingluo is angry.
When she was richer than the six realms, this little yellow-mouthed fox didn't even have any fur yet.
"The money is mine, and I make the decisions."
A fierce glint flashed in Bai Xiaobai's eyes, but then, remembering that it couldn't beat Ming Luo, it slowly said, "I can give you my money..."
"Where?" Mingluo's eyes darkened slightly. These places where fox demons die are called secret realms, filled with countless magical treasures. She had entered many of the demon race's secret realms before.
The thousand-year-old fox must have been hiding a lot of treasures, keeping it a secret until it bought a bell before revealing them.
Bai Xiaobai felt a little creeped out at the thought of being watched, but then she remembered that she was already dead and had lost seven tails, so it wasn't a big deal.
It leaned close to Mingluo's ear and whispered a place, glancing at Nie Yuchen with the cunning and allure characteristic of the fox clan.
Nie Yuchen: "..." Damn male fox.
After Bai Xiaobai finished speaking, she took a step back and said, "If you go and get the item now, you should be able to make it to the auction in time."
Mingluo stood up, shook her wrist, and couldn't help but laugh. "You're coming with me."
Bai Xiaobai: "Okay!"
Nie Yuchen: "Okay!"
The man and the fox spoke in unison.
They exchanged another glance, their eyes blazing with fury.
Mingluo: "Let's go together."
The place was in a park in the city. Bai Xiaobai hadn't been there for a long time, and she took Mingluo on many wrong turns.
This city has developed too fast. What used to be a forest is now a concrete jungle.
It pointed to a spot in the park with its paw. Minglu walked over and tested it with her spiritual power. Sure enough, she sensed a formation.
This formation has been in place for many years and is now somewhat dilapidated.
In a few years, the formation will disappear, the secret realm will collapse, and the things inside will never be able to be taken out again.
Bai Xiaobai had anticipated this, which is why she was so generous.
It was just about to show Mingluo how to enter the formation when it saw Mingluo place her finger on it. Not long after, the formation collapsed, and a vortex appeared...
Minglu naturally took Jun Zhenyuan's hand, and the two went inside...
Upon entering, you'll find a very elegant garden, reminiscent of an ancient southern village. It's planted with many bamboo trees, but due to insufficient spiritual energy, the bamboo is already showing signs of decay.
A bamboo house is nestled among the bamboo groves.
Minglu did not go in immediately, but continued to investigate for a while, destroying the killing formation at the door, finding some hidden weapons and illusions to confuse people, before slowly walking towards the bamboo house.
Bai Xiaobai was stunned; its original intention was to test Mingluo.
But this guy ruined all his hard work with a wave of his hand. He doesn't seem like a novice sorcerer at all; he's clearly a seasoned veteran.
It shut its mouth, seemingly understanding why it had been defeated by Mingluo.
Mingluo entered the bamboo house, and upon seeing what was inside, she gasped in shock.
"Are they getting married?"
Nie Yuchen was also stunned.
Before us was a rather antique-style wedding room, decorated in a luxurious and elegant manner, showing great care.
A mocking smile appeared on Bai Xiaobai's lips. She didn't answer, but instead pointed her fox paw at several places. "You can take whatever you want from there; it's all useless now."
Minglu searched inside for a while and found a pile of jewelry, jade artifacts, jade tripods and goblets, talismans and magical implements, too numerous to count.
They even found a bunch of well-preserved banknotes, though they were from a hundred or two hundred years ago.
Because the banknotes were preserved by spiritual power, they are still in pristine condition, as if they were just printed.
Bai Xiaobai used a little magic to burn the banknotes completely, as if something had been severed.
Minglu sighed. The male fox only loved one person in its entire life, so it was probably heartbroken by its lover. She guessed that its death might be related to its lover.
However, she wasn't that familiar with Bai Xiaobai yet, so she didn't ask.
Minglu came out with the items. Since there was no storage space like in the God Realm, they could only carry things by hand. As a result, the two of them came out carrying two full bags of treasures, looking like they had just been robbed from a bank. They would easily be questioned on the street.
They left the park; the auction was about to begin.
Nie Yuchen drove Mingluo and the baby directly to the auction.
The auction was held on the third floor of the Xuanmen Market. The two of them went in with their admission tickets, and Nie Yuchen immediately pulled Mingluo to find Master Gu.
Master Gu had also sent his disciples to wait for them. As soon as they arrived, he immediately invited them into a private room.
As soon as Mingluo entered, she discovered that there was an old acquaintance inside—Master Lin.
Master Lin, furious, glared and puffed out his beard. "Old Gu, why is she here again? What do you mean by this? Today's auction is either her or me; it's either her or me."
"Old Lin, sit down and talk properly. Why bother arguing with a child? Mingluo, sit down." Master Gu pulled Mingluo aside while trying to appease Master Lin.
Minglu smiled, ignored Master Lin, greeted Master Gu, and then looked at the very center of the auction.
There was already an item up for auction there, a string of copper coins.
Ancient bronze coins strung together with red thread are believed to subdue demons and monsters, a common theme in TV dramas. Consequently, many such imitation ancient bronze coin ritual objects are available on the market, along with numerous counterfeit and substandard products.
This string of ancient bronze coins has been authenticated as possessing magical properties; I estimate there will be many people bidding for it later.
Master Lin thought for a moment that his paper effigy was still in Mingluo's hands. It was his most beloved magical artifact. He wanted to ask Mingluo to return it, but he was too embarrassed to ask. He was also reluctant to leave at the moment, so he sat down angrily and thought about how to get the paper effigy back later.
The other person in the room was a disciple of Master Zhao, who had come to check out what items were up for auction on behalf of his master.
His master was injured by Mingluo and is still recovering. It is unknown whether he will recover. He hates Mingluo to the core, but fighting is prohibited at the auction, so he glared at Mingluo and stopped talking.
Master Gu was extremely exhausted.
He pulled Nie Yuchen aside and spoke for a while, then whispered, "What has Mingluo taken a fancy to? Old Lin will buy it for her later. Do you think you can get Mingluo to return the paper effigy?"
Nie Yuchen smiled indifferently, "Minglu lacks nothing, and I don't know what she wants. However, according to the rules of the Xuanmen, what is sent out must be taken back by one's own ability."
Master Lin's face darkened upon hearing this. If he could beat Mingluo, he wouldn't be suffering here. It was obvious that they wanted to steal his things.
He rested his hand on the armrest and almost slammed his fist on the table.
Minglu chuckled softly. "Master Lin, you want to take this paper back? It's not impossible."
"What do you want?" Master Lin's eyes lit up instantly.
A greedy glint flashed in Mingluo's eyes. "Master Lin, I'm easily bribed. Buy me a few things, and I'll return them to you, how about that?"
