Then, Li Mingzhu looked at Li Chang'an with a smile and said, "Grandpa, you advised me not to save Mr. Ye when we were in the Sunset Mountains. If I hadn't saved Mr. Ye, we would have missed this benefactor."
"Yes, thanks to Mr. Ye, and thanks to you too."
Li Chang'an said happily, and looked at Li Mingzhu with admiration.
Suddenly remembering something, Li Chang'an lowered his voice and said, "Mingzhu, you saved Mr. Ye, and Mr. Ye saved you. You two are now practically brothers who have risked your lives for each other. Since that's the case, then you..."
Upon hearing Li Chang'an's words, Li Mingzhu's cheeks immediately turned bright red.
"Grandpa, what do you mean? Do you want me to seduce Mr. Ye..." Li Mingzhu said, embarrassed and annoyed, and even stomped her foot.
Li Chang'an said with a stern face, "Don't put it so harshly, okay? How can this be called seduction? Mr. Ye seems to be all alone, while you are currently unmarried. You two are a perfect match! If you follow Mr. Ye, you might even be able to cultivate with him, and then you will become an immortal in the future!"
Li Mingzhu was very tempted by Li Chang'an's words, but an embarrassed look appeared on her face.
"Grandpa, Mr. Ye is so powerful, if he wanted to find a woman, there would definitely be countless women willing to be with him."
"But he's still single, which means he probably has no interest in matters of love and sex. In that case, even if I..."
Before Li Mingzhu could finish speaking, Li Chang'an patted her on the shoulder and said, "Mingzhu, how will you know if you don't try? You have to give it a shot!"
"That...that's true."
After hesitating for a long time, Li Mingzhu finally nodded with a blush: "I understand. I will try my best, but whether I succeed or not is not up to me, but up to Mr. Ye."
Hengfeng Chamber of Commerce announced that it will hold an auction tonight.
Various elixirs and magical artifacts will be featured at the auction; all are welcome to attend.
The news spread like wildfire throughout Lingluo City in just one hour.
Lingluo City was in an uproar.
"What? The Hengfeng Chamber of Commerce is actually holding an auction, and publicly auctioning elixirs and magical artifacts?"
"How is this possible!"
"You should know that in our entire Lingluo City, only the Baicao Hall under the Lingluo Sect sells elixirs, and the weapon-refining workshop sells spiritual weapons!"
"Yes, and the Spirit Luo Sect's Herb Hall and Weapon Refining Workshop sell very few elixirs and magical artifacts, and the prices are outrageously high!"
"Where did the Hengfeng Chamber of Commerce get these elixirs and magical artifacts? It's unbelievable!"
"Could he be bragging?"
"No matter what, we have to go and take a look. What if they really do have elixirs and magical artifacts?"
"Yes, yes, anyway, it doesn't take much effort to make a trip, and even if we get tricked, we won't lose anything."
Throughout the streets and alleys of Lingluo City, countless independent cultivators were discussing this matter.
The name of Hengfeng Chamber of Commerce quickly became the most resounding brand in the entire Lingluo City!
Lingluo City Great Dragon Merchant Guild.
Inside the beautifully decorated hall, a young man was complaining to a middle-aged man with a wronged expression.
This young man is Deng Feng, the young master of the Great Dragon Chamber of Commerce!
The middle-aged man in front of him, who exuded an imposing aura without being angry, was none other than Deng Tiancheng, the president of the Dalong Chamber of Commerce!
"Father, you must stand up for me! All the guards I brought were injured, and even the three Wu brothers were hurt. They are currently recuperating at the clinic under our chamber of commerce..."
Upon hearing Deng Feng's words, Deng Tiancheng's expression changed.
"All of the more than one hundred guards you brought were injured? Even the three Wu brothers were injured? Is this true?" Deng Tiancheng questioned.
“Of course it’s true, how could I lie to you?” Deng Feng said.
"Who did it?" Deng Tiancheng pressed.
"I didn't see it clearly. I only saw a sword light flashing with lightning fly out from the inner courtyard of the Hengfeng Chamber of Commerce, and then..."
Deng Tiancheng's expression became very serious, and his brows furrowed tightly.
After a long while, Deng Tiancheng said, "Feng'er, you probably don't know yet, but just now the Hengfeng Chamber of Commerce released news that they will be holding an auction tonight to publicly auction spiritual pills and artifacts!"
"How is this possible! Hengfeng Chamber of Commerce is not even as good as our Dalong Chamber of Commerce. Even our Dalong Chamber of Commerce can't get spiritual pills and artifacts, so how could Hengfeng Chamber of Commerce possibly..."
Deng Feng's words were abruptly cut off before he could finish speaking.
He suddenly remembered the mysterious master who had unleashed that sword light.
"At first I didn't believe it either, thinking it was just a gimmick by the Hengfeng Chamber of Commerce, but now it seems that it might really be true."
"Perhaps it was that mysterious expert who injured the more than one hundred guards you brought and the three Wu brothers who provided the Hengfeng Chamber of Commerce with elixirs and magical artifacts!"
Deng Tiancheng said heavily, his face extremely gloomy.
"Damn it, where did Hengfeng Chamber of Commerce find such a master?" Deng Feng gritted his teeth.
"Maybe it was just pure luck?"
Deng Tiancheng chuckled coldly a few times, then said, "Feng'er, you absolutely must not clash with the Hengfeng Chamber of Commerce during this period, after all, the Hengfeng Chamber of Commerce has a powerful figure backing it up."
"So we're just going to suffer such a huge loss for nothing?" Deng Feng asked.
"Of course not, we must retaliate! But we must at least find out the details about the other side before we take action. We can't just lead a group to seek revenge without knowing anything!" Deng Tiancheng scolded.
Deng Feng gritted his teeth and finally nodded: "Okay, I understand."
The sky was getting dark.
Countless people had gathered in front of the Hengfeng Chamber of Commerce, most of whom were martial artists!
Of course, there were also some big bosses dressed in luxurious clothes.
Why isn't the door open yet?
"Is the auction still going to take place?"
"Could it be that the Hengfeng Chamber of Commerce has chickened out?"
"Could the news be false?"
The hundreds of people gathered at the entrance started talking about it.
Just then, the doors of the Hengfeng Chamber of Commerce opened, and Li Chang'an strode out, smiling and greeting everyone with a cupped-hand salute: "Thank you all for coming. Please come in!"
The lobby on the first floor of the Hengfeng Chamber of Commerce has now been transformed into an auction venue.
Hundreds of guests entered the venue and took their seats, then eagerly looked at the stage.
A moment later, Li Mingzhu stepped onto the stage and said gracefully, "Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend the auction hosted by our Hengfeng Chamber of Commerce. I would like to express my gratitude to all the guests present..."
Before Li Mingzhu could finish speaking, a cacophony of shouts and yells erupted from below.
"Stop talking nonsense and get started!"
"Didn't you say there would be elixirs and magical artifacts up for public auction? Hurry up and bring them up!"
"Exactly, why all the fuss!"
Most of the people attending the auction were martial artists. They were hot-tempered, impatient, and focused on elixirs and magical artifacts.
So at this moment, they can't wait any longer!
