The next day.
Lu Yuan finished packing early and waited for Zheng Meng to arrive at the store. After giving her a few simple instructions, he and Mu Ruxing drove to the Divine Beast Auction House.
Since auctions are usually held at night, the auction hall was quiet at this time, with only the two of them in the huge hall.
After storing all the pet cubs that had been brought in backstage, Lu Yuan inspected the auction house.
In their haste to hold the auction, they simply did some basic renovations and decorations after buying the auction venue before opening for business.
Now that the Mythical Beast Auction House is gaining more and more fame, it's time to take some time to renovate it.
Not only should we expand the scale, but we should also prepare more private rooms for important figures who are not comfortable showing their faces in public.
After having this idea in mind, Lu Yuan silently made a note of it and decided to start construction when he found a suitable time.
...
"Mr. Lu, I'm here!"
Yang Meier arrived at the auction venue a few hours before the auction began. She went backstage and greeted Lu Yuan with a smile.
"Haven't seen you for a week, Mr. Lu, have you missed me?" Yang Meier tossed her hair and said coquettishly, "And you, you haven't even taken the initiative to come see me all this time!"
Lu Yuan ignored her and instead took out a rectangular wooden box that looked extremely heavy from his spatial storage.
"Mr. Lu, what's inside this?"
Yang Meier asked instinctively.
Although the cultivation techniques and spiritual artifacts auctioned before were all packed in individual wooden boxes, I have never seen a wooden box this big before.
However, one thing is certain: what's inside is no ordinary item.
really.
As Yang Meier was speculating in her mind, she heard Lu Yuan speak.
"This is the highlight of this auction. It has a rather special function. You should familiarize yourself with it first to avoid any problems during the auction."
Hearing this, Yang Meier became even more curious.
When she eagerly opened the box, she was immediately stunned by what she saw.
"This is?!"
...
Time flies by, and before we knew it, night had fallen.
The third auction at the Mythical Beast Auction House has arrived as scheduled.
At the entrance.
A large crowd was moving in, with people constantly entering the auction hall.
As soon as Wu Qiushan got out of the car, he saw Xu Lanshan and his son Xu Yunfan walking towards the auction house.
"As expected, Mr. Xu is also attending the auction!"
"Isn't this Mr. Wu!" Xu Lanshan looked up and sized up Wu Qiushan, then said with a smile, "Judging from Mr. Wu's appearance, he must have made ample preparations for today's auction!"
"Of course!" Wu Qiushan laughed. "This time, we definitely won't let Mr. Xu get away with it again!"
The two walked into the auction hall chatting and laughing, showing no trace of their previous confrontation at the auction.
This is the state of high society.
They fight tooth and nail when it comes to interests, but otherwise they act like best buddies.
“Mr. Lu!” Xu Lanshan came to the front row and sat down next to Lu Yuan. “It’s been a week since I last saw you. You seem a little different than before.”
Xu Lanshan looked Lu Yuan up and down, and a strange feeling arose in his heart.
For some reason, he felt that Lu Yuan's aura was stronger than before, and it even made him feel a little wary.
The reason for this feeling is entirely due to Lu Yuan's breakthrough to the Earth Spirit level.
Although he couldn't discern Lu Yuan's exact level, Xu Lanshan, being a Heavenly Evolution level expert, possessed an extremely keen sense of aura, and thus immediately recognized that Lu Yuan was different from before.
"Mr. Xu, you must be so engrossed in your cultivation technique that you've almost forgotten about me!"
Lu Yuan smiled slightly and skillfully shifted the topic back to Xu Lanshan.
"Hey! Mr. Lu, what are you saying? I was able to obtain such a treasure all thanks to you!"
Xu Lanshan's eyes crinkled with joy, and he became incredibly happy whenever the topic of cultivation techniques came up.
Ever since they acquired the Spirit Yang Finger and the Heavenly Thunder Staff, the Xu family's doorstep has been worn down by people seeking an audience, but Xu Lanshan has refused them all entry under the pretext of cultivation.
He had long since guessed what those people outside were thinking.
They simply wanted to use the pretext of congratulations to find an opportunity to curry favor, especially with those who had grudges against them in the past.
Despite being called the number one person in Yandu, in reality, at this level of cultivation, everyone's beast-taming level is not much different. As long as these families unite, they can completely restrain the Xu family.
But things are different now.
After successfully acquiring the Lingyang Finger and the Heavenly Thunder Staff, Xu Lanshan's strength will definitely increase by several levels.
Once Xu Lanshan has mastered the Lingyang Finger technique, not only will his family be unable to restrain him, but if they accidentally displease Xu Lanshan, they might all suffer the fate of having their families destroyed!
However, Xu Lanshan had no interest in playing these roundabout games with them. All he could think about right now was mastering the Lingyang Finger as soon as possible. He thought that he might be inspired by the technique and break through to the Illusion God level in one fell swoop!
"As long as it suits Mr. Xu's taste."
Seeing Xu Lanshan's delighted expression, Lu Yuan smiled gently and then asked, "Mr. Xu, since you've come to the auction today, will you participate in the bidding?"
Xu Lanshan shook his head.
"I'm just here to join in the fun."
Last week's consecutive auctions of the Lingyang Finger and the Heavenly Thunder Staff have already depleted the Xu family's savings, and he will be unable to participate in auctions for the foreseeable future.
He only attended the auction today because of Lu Yuan, to help make a good impression.
Lu Yuan was not surprised to hear this.
Even with the Xu family's immense wealth, they still needed to catch their breath after suddenly pulling out billions of yuan.
However, he was not worried.
Aside from the Xu family, there are many other wealthy families whose influence on the auction house's revenue is minimal.
As the two chatted, the auction finally officially began!
Wearing a deep red evening gown, Yang Meier walked onto the stage and opened her mouth with a smile.
"Welcome to the Divine Beast Auction House! We have prepared ten items for auction today, and we guarantee that every single one will capture your heart!"
"Also, using the host's authority, I'd like to give you a little sneak peek: the grand finale of this auction is a rare and heavyweight treasure!"
"We kindly ask all guests to wait patiently until the very last moment and not to leave prematurely!"
"Now I declare the auction officially open!"
