Chapter 293: The Secret Lies Not in Novelty, But in Techniqu

, Bei Chen Yi shielded Bei Chen Han from a blade, taking the wound to his abdomen and falling into a poisoned coma. Bei Chen Han only suffered minor injuries.Then the assassin was killed, and everythi...:[ ]

Yun Qian Shan glared at Old Wang Ye with displeasure.

Old Wang said that he didn't mind any of this, it was his grandson who was capable and ambitious. You can glare at me all you want.

Yu Changyuan always had a furrowed brow. He could smell the impending storm, a gathering darkness unlike any he'd ever encountered.

After dinner, Yun An'an and Bei Chenlin bid farewell to the three people.

Although Lao Wangye pleaded with them time and again, they were not afraid of Beichen Yi's whatever he might do. However, Yun Anan had her own plans, and the two still left Ruixin Prince's Mansion.

Standing before the gate of Prince Rui's Mansion, watching the carriage gradually disappear from sight, You Changyuan was even more worried.

Given Yun An'an's personality, after being reborn from the ashes, she would definitely stir up a bloody storm.

"What about it Just allow Bei Chen Yi to take my daughter's life, but not allow my daughter to seek revenge"

Yun Qian Shan sneered, it was just that Yun An An's mother had died early. Otherwise, with the power of the Qin family combined with her father who hadn't returned to the mountains, Bei Chen Yi wouldn't even want to live, let alone walk on his legs.

"Old Wang, do you think I'm right"

Yun Qian Shan stood completely on Yun An An's side. Five years ago, he had made a mistake once, and he would absolutely not make the same mistake again five years later. This time, he fully supported his daughter.

But Old Master Wang didn't respond to Yun Qian Shan.

On the other hand,

The carriage stopped at the Black Market before returning to Tianxiang Building. A new servant led the way, guiding the two upstairs to a private room on the second floor.

It's still the familiar place, but a batch of old employees from the black market have left. Besides Yu Ruoshan, who is still busy as always.

However, behind Yoma there was also the shadow of a young man.

It seems that Zi Yang has recovered very well over the past five years.

"Don't look at other men."

Beichen Lin pressed his index finger to Yun An'an's chin, gently moving it as her gaze fell on him.

"Isn't it enough that you have me"

"Don't make trouble, that person is Yu Ruoshan, and following behind Yu Ruoshan is his son Yu Ziyang."

Yun Anan looked into Yu Ziyang's eyes and didn't see any romantic desire, only pure admiration. The man who was once paralyzed in a wheelchair had now recovered to normal. It took an incredible amount of willpower during that time.

"

That's not allowed either.

"

Beichen Lin ate with half-joking and half-serious jealousy.

"Once we've dealt with Beichen Yi and broken the Phoenix Flower poison, we'll get married on Phoenix Immortal Island."

"Will you marry a corpse"

Yun An'an compared herself to a walking corpse, only a shell driven by revenge. As for her heart...what was that thing

Even if you were a walking corpse, even if you were just a body, the person to be buried with you in marriage could only be me.

"Don't need to make it sound so scary, feudal superstition is wrong."

Yunan An was amused by Beichen Lin's words.

As the two conversed, a figure in the lobby on the first floor caught Yun An'an's attention.

A beautiful woman carrying a sword walked into the black market hall. At-Wu, who was busy at work, glanced over and hurried forward to attend to her.

What could make Yu Ruoshan so humble The visitor wasn't royalty or nobility, but someone the black market feared.

The current head of Tiangjige is Su Yuyan.

Yun An'an didn't recognize the several men following Su Yuyan, but each one was a master.

"Master, you've arrived. Your private room has already been prepared on the second floor."

Under Ruoshan's guidance, the head of Tiangji Pavilion, Su Yuyan, along with her disciples, went upstairs to a room near Yun'an'an.

Vaguely, Yun An'an could hear the conversation between Yu Ruoshan and Su Yuyan. Their words mentioned something about a galaxy.

"The Milky Way, isn't it stored on the ground of the Phoenix Immortal Island Library How could it appear in the black market"

Yun'an was a little curious, the existence of the astrological book "Star River" in the Phoenix Immortal Island's miscellaneous room...why would it be auctioned on the black market

Interesting, she'd like to see it.

Soon, the auction will begin.

A woman in a light pink dress walked step by step towards the crowd. With a veil covering the upper half of her face, she was already breathtakingly beautiful just from what could be seen.

"Distinguished guests, I apologize for the delay. Lorelle will be brief today. The black market auction features three items: the Qinyanqin from the Xiling Kingdom, the Ziguite Jade from the Dong Qin Kingdom, and the Xinghe from the Phoenix Immortal Island."

As she spoke, the woman retreated backward. The black market's guards displayed the three priceless treasures about to be auctioned before the crowd.

The first item is the Qingyuanqin from Xiling Country. It is said that this qin has a history of over a thousand years and has been played by over a hundred musicians, but only a handful of people are capable of playing it.

But any musician who can play Your Original Qin is unparalleled genius and will be worshipped by the world.

The second item is a piece of purple gui jade from the Dong Qin Kingdom. The purple gui tree is a giant tree that blooms with beautiful purple gui flowers every summer, releasing a rich and intoxicating fragrance.

And the Zi Gui Yu is a beautiful jade formed by the condensation of the oil from a thousand-year-old purple laurel tree. You see, hundreds of purple laurel trees are needed to condense just a single drop of oil, so you can imagine how precious a palm-sized Zi Gui Yu is.

The last item to be auctioned tonight is the Star River from Phoenix Fairy Island.

Little is known about Phoenix Immortal Island, except that it is inhabited by deities.

But for Xinghe, that is the number one strange book in the world. Just by looking at Xinghe once, you can know the history of five thousand years.

However, most people who possess the Star River die untimely deaths, so those who can both obtain and understand the Star River... apart from the author of the Star River, there are none other.

"Now, let's begin the auction for the first item: the Qiyuanqin."

All three treasures are once-in-a-lifetime rarities, and the starting bids from those vying for them are astonishingly high.

Taking this Ching Yuen qin as an example, the price soared to over ten million taels.

Beichen Lin saw Yun An'an's gaze fall on Qing Yuanqin and directly raised the price to double, adding twenty million.

For a moment, all was silent.

Although the qin (a Chinese zither) is beautiful, it's ultimately just a form of entertainment. At most, they take it home and display it as a conversation piece. That's all there is to it. Let someone else have it!

Thus, the first piece, the qin of Qing Yuan, was sold for 20 million.

Following this, the second piece of zhigui jade was put up for sale. As before, the highest bidder would win it.

"Five million."

"Seven million."

"20 million."

Another 20 million, the same room, the same people shouting prices.

Everyone frowned, looking up at the second-floor room with puzzled expressions.

What does that man mean Just because he has a little money, he thinks he's something special. He keeps shouting two million, two million, but what chance do we have to raise the price

The auctioneer also raised his head and confirmed three times that Beichen Lin was determined to buy the second artifact at a price of twenty million.

Although the auctioneer couldn't see Beichen Lin's face, the gesture of pointing at her undoubtedly confirmed her words.

Finally, the second treasure, Ziguixiu Jade, was sold for 20 million.

Next up is tonight's grand finale, the coveted Star River, something everyone desires.

Prices soared throughout the auction. As both the first and second treasures were purchased by the same individual, the black market crowd concluded that Beichen Lin would not continue bidding.

In fact, Bei Chenlin wouldn't spend money on a fake product.

He bought the qin to play music for Yun An'an, and he bought the purple gui jade to burn it instead of lingxi incense.

As for the fake Milky Way, whoever wants to buy it can buy it; he doesn't care.

"20 million."

Thirty million.

"40 million."

40 million is the limit, and the one paying is Li Changyu, the richest man in Beichen Nation.

Compared to the Yuan family, although the Li family is not a wealthy merchant of the Seven Kingdoms, their business network is extensive and they can still afford to buy a copy of "Star River" for forty million.

As long as I get the stars, what does a measly 40 million count for

Just as the auctioneer was about to bring down the hammer to finalize the price of 40 million.

In the chamber, a cool voice rang out, interrupting the auctioneer's hammer.

Sixty million.

What

60 million

All eyes turned, though not in unison, they confirmed the voice was from the same room on the second floor.

I'm crazy, I bought the Qing Yuan Qin, I bought the Zi Gui Yu, and now I spent another 60 million to buy Xing He.

Money can't be wasted like this, are you still human

Beichen Lin was also stunned for a moment. Money didn't matter, sixty million was nothing to Phoenix Immortal Island.

But what would she do with a fake Milky Way, purchased for sixty million dollars

Noticing Beichen Lin's gaze, Yun Anan smiled and lightly tapped the table with her jade finger, making a dull sound.

"On the black market, selling counterfeit goods means you risk losing ten times your investment."

She has used this tactic before.

That's how the other half of the nameless celestial book came to be.

To be honest, that half scroll of the nameless celestial scripture was genuine. It was just that she tricked him into thinking it was a common object, and Yu Ruoshan actually believed her and fell for the scam.

But she could be sure of one thing: Xinghe has no upper and lower volumes, the black market Xinghe is fake.

Finally, the star river was sold for 60 million.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Black Market guards carried three treasures step by step up the stairs and arrived at Yun An'an's second-floor private room.

They will want to see how this person came up with so much money to pay.

The rules of the black market are strict: once an item is sold at auction, it cannot be returned. If you can't afford to pay, the consequences will be dire.

Creak—

A pink-clad auctioneer sashayed forward, her smile bewitching as she introduced the prices of three treasured items.

And gestured for the two in front to pay.

"Bring Yue Ruoshan here."

“Miss, what you bought is from my black market and has nothing to do with Lao Yu.”

The auctioneer was still smiling, patiently telling Yun An'an that it would be better to pay. If Lao Er really came, she wouldn't be so kind to her anymore.

Yunan An didn't want to repeat the experience. She stretched out her jade hand and took Xing He from the shelf carried by the black market guards.

But no one expected that Yun An'an would actually bring Xinghe closer to the burning lamppost.

The dry paper met the fire and instantly caught alight. The Black Market guards, seeing this, rushed forward to snatch Starriver from Yun An'an's hands.

Beichen Lin struck first, his Tang sword cleaving through the guards' hands with a whoosh. Blood splattered on the ground. Prince, Nan Tuo."General Han, there is no need for such alarm. This prince merely wished to remind General Han to see the truth of the matter clearly."The smile beneath the mask deepened, and Nantuo...
