Chapter 724: Their Young Master
Really? Then do you know where they are? Chu Liuxiang asked.
Not exactly. I know theyre nearby, but I dont know where they are. Hold on, let me ask them.
Feng Feng? Xiao Hua? Are you two also at the Flood Dragons scale auction? Yuan asked them through their connection.
Y-Young Master? Are you also at the auction? Feng Yuxiangs surprised voice resounded, almost as though she wasnt aware until he spoke to her.
Yes, I decided to participate in the auction when I heard about it, but alas, I had no chance against these powerful families and sects. And before you tell me that I wasnt supposed to leave the hotel, I left a note behind before we left. Yuan said.
Dont worry, I am not mad at you for leaving. Feng Yuxiang chuckled.
Anyways, now that the auction has ended, lets meet up.
W-Wait a minute, Young Master. I still have a few treasures to sell, so we cannot meet up just yet. If you want, you can return to the hotel first... Feng Yuxiang quickly made up an excuse so that she wouldnt expose herself for selling the Flood Dragons scale.
Is that so? Do you know how long it will take? If its not too long, we can wait for you in our hotel at Bright Night City. Yuan then said.
It shouldnt take too long. We should be finished by the end of today or tomorrow.
I understand. Then well wait for you at Bright Night City. Yuan proceeded to give her the name of their hotel.
Theyre almost finished selling the treasures, so were going to wait for them in our hotel at Bright Night City. Yuan explained the situation to Chu Liuxiang and Lan Yingying.
Thank you all for coming to our action today! If you have any questions, you may visit the House of Riches located in Bright Night City at any time! Gu Xiulan said to everyone there before leaving the stage.
Many people at the auction wanted to ask about the owner of the Flood Dragons scale, but they figured that if this person wanted their identity to be known, Gu Xiulan wouldve already mentioned it.
The fact that they were not mentioned must either mean Gu Xiulan doesnt know, or the seller doesnt want their identity to be known. It was that simple.
After leaving the Royal Hall, Yuans group returned to Bright Night City while Feng Yuxiang and Xiao Hua waited to collect their money.
As for Senior Nie, he went to a private room with Gu Xiulan, where he paid her the 20 million spirit stones for the Flood Dragons scale.
I know you probably dont want to tell me their identity, but I still wish to ask. Senior Nie asked Gu Xiulan as he handed her the spirit stones.
Gu Xiulan shook her head with a bittersweet smile, Its not that I dont want to tell you. I simply dont know their identity.
Thats unfortunate. Senior Nie said.
However, just as Gu Xiulan handed Senior Nie the Flood Dragons scale, the door to the VIP room opened, and Feng Yuxiang and Xiao Hua casually walked inside the room.
Y-You are... Senior Nies eyes widened with surprise when he saw Xiao Hua and recognized her.
Hey, do you have the money yet? I dont like the feeling of making the Young Master wait. And the more I think about it, the more anxious I get. Feng Yuxiang ignored Senior Nie and directly asked for the money.
Gu Xiulan was speechless. She thought they wanted to remain anonymous, so what are they doing here?
You were in the Lower Heavens at the Mystic Realm! What are you doing here? Senior Nie eventually snapped out of his shock and asked Xiao Hua.
Thats none of your business. Xiao Hua nonchalantly responded.
Uhh... Heres the spirit stones for the other treasures you asked us to sell. The commission fee has already been deducted. As for the 20 million spirit stones, give me a moment to separate them.
Gu Xiulan quickly subtracted 200,000 spirit stones from the 20 million as part of their 1 percent commission fee. After that, she handed the rest to Feng Yuxiang.
19,861,000 spirit stones, huh? Not bad. Feng Yuxiang said after a quick count using her divine sense.
She then retrieved another spatial ring that was empty before putting in 120,000 spirit stones from the 19 million.
Yuans treasure had sold for a little over 60,000 spirit stones, but Feng Yuxiang decided to add a tiny percentage of her own earnings into it to help him.
Of course, this tiny amount was already enough to double his earnings, but Yuan wont know that unless she tells him.
Thanks for the work. Feng Yuxiang said to Gu Xiulan as she turned around and began walking for the exit.
P-Please wait a moment! Gu Xiulan suddenly stopped them.
However, she didnt know exactly why she stopped them, and she did it mostly subconsciously.
Is there something else? Feng Yuxiang asked her.
Uhhh... N-No. Sorry. Gu Xiulan gave up trying to learn more about them.
In fact, Senior Nie appears to recognize one of them, so she could simply ask him later.
Feng Yuxiang and Xiao Hua left the scene shortly after.
Theyre the owners of the Flood Dragons scale...? Unbelievable... Senior Nie mumbled in a dazed voice after they left.
You know them? Gu Xiulan asked him.
Well... I wouldnt say that I know them, but I have met them before... In the Lower Heavens. He said.
What?! The Lower Heavens?!
Senior Nie nodded, and he proceeded to recall their brief encounter at the Mystic Realm to Gu Xiulan.
That little girl was a Spirit King?! Gu Xiulans jaw dropped after learning this information.
After a moment of silence, she asked, Wait. Did you also see their Young Master by any chance?
Young Master? Oh, you must mean that genius who conquered the Mystic Realm. If I recall correctly, his name was Yuan.
Gu Xiulans eyes widened with shock when she heard this familiar name.
Wait a second... Did you just say... Yuan? She asked for confirmation.
Yes. Do you know him? Senior Nie nodded.
