"So that's how it is. That's such a pity. I thought this was just the lowest-level one you took out, but I didn't expect there was only this one." Lie Yuer said with some disappointment.
Gu Yuan smiled bitterly and said, "Although this Fire Qi Pill is only of the second grade, you should know how much more powerful it is compared to the ordinary pills on the market. The fact that three of them can be stacked together alone is already superior to 90% of the pills. Finally, there is no side effect. In this respect, I don't think any similar pill can compare to this Fire Qi Pill. You also know that the more abnormal the pill, the more difficult it is to refine, so I don't have the ability to refine a higher quality Fire Qi Pill."
Lie Yu'er shook her head and said with a smile, "It doesn't matter. This second-grade Fire Qi Pill alone is already extremely abnormal, and it quickly occupied most of the market after it was launched. It's already very good. Besides, to be honest, this second-grade Fire Qi Pill is already making people jealous. If a higher-quality Fire Qi Pill appears, I'm afraid even our auction house will be targeted. This will only bring us fatal disaster. We understand that it is a crime to possess a treasure. Therefore, the lack of higher-quality Fire Qi Pills is actually a blessing for us!"
"Tsk tsk tsk, you really see things clearly. You can still keep your rationality under such temptation. You are worthy of being the chief auctioneer of Tianxuan Auction House. Such far-sighted vision makes me ashamed of myself! Haha!" Gu Yuan looked at Lie Yuer with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
Lie Yu'er smiled sweetly, looked at Gu Yuan, and suddenly said with a bit of boredom: "Yu'er, you have to understand this kind of thing no matter what. After all, I have experienced the guilt of possessing a treasure once, and I don't want to experience it a second time."
Gu Yuan looked at Lie Yu'er's changing expression and said quickly, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bring up bad memories for you."
Lie Yuer waved her hands and said, "Alright, alright, why are you apologizing to me? It's all in the past. I was just saying it casually. Let the past be the past. I'll just remember it deep in my heart."
"Well, that's the best!" Gu Yuan nodded.
"Oh, by the way, have you seen all your people? Are you surprised by the changes in the Abyss Pawnshop in the past six months?" Lie Yuer asked with a smile.
Gu Yuan nodded and smiled, "I haven't made much progress in the six months since I left. Instead, they've been here, keeping the Abyss Pawnshop going strong. I'm a little embarrassed about it. After all, I'm just a hands-off manager."
Lie Yuer rolled her eyes at Gu Yuan and said unhappily, "Come on, don't be so ungrateful. If you don't want them to suffer so much, then let them all join my army. I promise to treat them like masters. Is that okay with you?"
Gu Yuan quickly shook his head and said seriously, "That won't do. They are my team, they are my people. You can't have any ideas about them."
Lie Yu'er said with a grin, "See, you're just showing off to me, aren't you? Besides, those people in your Abyss Pawnshop were all gathered together because of you for various reasons. In other words, you are their core. Without you, they wouldn't have gathered together, let alone the Abyss Pawnshop today. So don't belittle yourself here. You say I'm capable, but do you think I have the ability to gather two Spirit Kings to my side? Obviously not!"
Gu Yuan smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "Alright, alright, stop praising me here. I'm embarrassed by your praise. I came here today because I have something important to discuss with you."
"Oh? What's the matter? I feel like you have something good to tell me this time?" Lie Yuer asked Gu Yuan.
"No, I mean, are you planning to let me stand here forever?"
Gu Yuan looked at Lie Yuer and asked speechlessly.
Lie Yu'er covered her lips and chuckled softly, her eyes flickering with affection as she said to Gu Yuan, "Look, I forgot about it. Come on, come in quickly."
Outside the VIP room, Lie Yu'er said to the two maids, "Stand by the door. No one is allowed to approach without my permission."
"Yes, Miss!"
"sit!"
Lie Yuer gestured for Gu Yuan to sit down.
Gu Yuan sat down casually, and Lie Yuer said, "What brings you here today? Tell me, I want to see what good news it is. I'm looking forward to it."
Gu Yuan chuckled and said, "Do you still remember the Lingshan Sect that we destroyed before?"
"I remember, of course I remember. It was because of this incident that the reputation of the Abyss Pawn Shop was completely publicized. Who wouldn't know that?" Lie Yuer said with a smile.
"Well, you know the territory of Lingshan Sect. I sold it to the three sects of Jindao Sect before, and then I kept the place in the middle with the richest spiritual energy. It has been vacant now." Gu Yuan said.
"Then what? What do you want to say? Do you want to make use of this place?" Lie Yuer asked.
Gu Yuan nodded and said, "You're right. This place has been completely encircled by Blood Coffin and Senior Eagle using special means. This means that not a single bit of that spiritual energy will flow to the other three sects. You have to know that the Lingshan Sect was founded on the most fertile land in the center. I don't know how rich the spiritual energy is in this area yet, but I think it's definitely not bad, so I want to make good use of it."
"So? How do you plan to use this place?" Lie Yuer tilted her head and asked.
"I have a small idea for now, but I don't know whether this idea will work or not. So I came here today to tell you about it and listen to your opinion." Gu Yuan said.
Lie Yu'er's eyes lit up and she said, "Oh? Really? So you want me to be your military advisor? That won't do. If you want to listen to my advice, then you have to tell me, is there any benefit for me in helping you?"
Gu Yuan nodded and said, "Of course I do. Since I'm here, I want to cooperate with you!"
"Oh, is it true? Hehehe, then tell me, I was just joking. Even if there is no benefit, I will help you." Lie Yuer said.
Gu Yuan nodded and smiled. He naturally knew Lie Yuer. She would definitely help him even if there was no benefit. However, Gu Yuan originally wanted to cooperate with her.
"Although that area is surrounded by the three sects, I don't think they would dare to have any ideas about it. My plan is to build some training rooms there and provide them for people to practice for a fee."
