Chapter 912 Famous Capital City Lord
This man is tall, has an heroic face, and is wearing a purple robe with extraordinary bearing. He is Bai Su's father, Bai Suran.
Lu Chen raised his head and looked forward. After seeing the middle-aged man, he immediately guessed his identity.
"City Lord Bai." Lu Chen's expression remained unchanged, he raised his arm and cupped his hand.
This person's late Nascent Soul cultivation was worthy of his raising his hand. He also guessed a thing or two about this person's intention.
"The cultivation of the middle Nascent Soul is indeed a hero's youth. I heard Su'er said that he is very interested in today's auction?" Bai Suran smiled heartily and walked to Lu Chen.
Lu Chen nodded slightly, and did not hide anything. He also told the people in front of him about his desire to find the nourishing liquid.
Bai Suran seemed thoughtful after hearing this. After a moment, he saw a glimmer of light flashing in his eyes and he looked up at Lu Chen.
"To repay you for saving Su'er's life, if there is any spiritual nourishing liquid in the auction, no matter how many spiritual stones there are, it will come from my city lord's mansion. What do you think?"
Bai Suran didn't have the airs of a city lord at all, and his words made people feel extremely gentle.
Lu Chen's eyes flashed, and he vaguely felt that something was not right about this matter...
"In that case, thank you City Lord!" Lu Chen couldn't think of a reason for a while, and immediately threw it behind him.
After the conversation, Bai Suran took Su Chen out of the city lord's mansion and headed towards the place where the auction was held.
In Mingdu City, the auction was held at the largest restaurant in the city called Mingzhu Restaurant, which had a dedicated auction venue.
The sky was covered with dark clouds, with lightning and thunder from time to time, and a cold wind howling between the sky and the earth.
In this kind of weather, ordinary people in the city choose to stay indoors, but at this time, the Pearl Restaurant is very lively.
Of course, these people are not ordinary people. Basically, they are all monks, but their cultivation levels are different. Even the monks in the foundation building stage have squeezed in.
Lu Chen walked into the restaurant with Bai Suran at this time, which immediately attracted the attention of the monks in the restaurant. After all, Bai Suran's identity was unknown to everyone in the famous city.
"Who is this person and why is he standing with City Master Bai?"
"I don't know. I can't see clearly this person's cultivation level. If his cultivation level is not much higher than mine, then he might just be an ordinary person."
"Maybe he is the son-in-law of the Bai family. Look, Miss Bai Su is also following..."
For a while, everyone in the restaurant was talking about Lu Chen's identity.
Lu Chen chuckled lightly, and scanned the field with his spiritual consciousness, discovering that the highest cultivation level among these people was only in the late stage of pill formation, and no Yuanying monks were found.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, the auction is not here. Come with me." Bai Suran turned to Lu Chen and then walked through the crowd into the inner hall of the restaurant.
Bai Su smiled at Lu Chen, and then followed his father into the inner hall together.
Lu Chen looked a little confused, and after thinking for a moment, he followed him. If he tried his best with his cultivation, Bai Suran would not be able to block the power of his sword, so naturally he would not be afraid of this person.
After passing through the inner hall, the three of them entered a secret passage directly, and at the end of the secret passage there was a Xumi Formation hidden.
The three of them stepped into the formation, and a unique and elegant auction house immediately came into Lu Chen's sight.
"This place is only open to Yuanying monks. The real good things in the auction will only be auctioned here." After entering the auction, Bai Suran immediately explained to Lu Chen.
The three of them immediately walked into a private room that had been prepared for them, waiting for the auction to begin.
At this time, Lu Chen, after entering the private room, sat directly in the corner, and then slowly closed his eyes.
When Bai Suran saw this, he did not disturb her too much, but took his daughter out of the private room, chatting and laughing with the Nascent Soul monks who came in one after another from the outer door.
I don't know how long it took, Lu Chen suddenly opened his eyes, a light flashed in his eyes, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Mu Yue, you are indeed here." Lu Chen thought to himself.
Relying on the Luo Yue Hat on his head, he just sensed a very strong look, hiding in the dark, looking at him.
After another half while, Bai Suran and Bai Su walked into the private room. Bai Suran saw Lu Chen open his eyes and immediately stepped forward.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, I just made inquiries. There are indeed people selling the spirit nourishing liquid at this auction, and there are as many as ten bottles." Bai Suran had a smile on his face.
"So much, it should be enough!" Lu Chen pretended to be surprised, then frowned and said: "Such a lot of nourishing liquid, I'm afraid it's expensive!"
Bai Suran heard Lu Chen's words, and immediately showed a hearty smile on his face, and nodded to Lu Chen.
"Well, it is indeed a bit expensive, but as I said just now, in order to repay my kindness, these spiritual stones will come from my city lord's palace." The look on Bai Suran's face has not changed much, and the feeling remains the same.
Lu Chen couldn't help but feel a little confused. Bai Suran's performance was obviously a bit excessive.
If you want to repay your kindness, why do you have to wait until today to suddenly come to find yourself? And from the looks of it, it seems that no matter how many spirit stones are needed for this spiritual nourishing liquid, this person is ready to give it to him.
"Who else in this city can take out so much nourishing liquid at once..."
Lu Chen had a guess in his mind and couldn't help but chuckle to himself. He was basically certain that Mu Yue must have taken out these nourishing liquids on purpose.
But Bai Suran's behavior left Lu Chen a little confused.
At this time, he couldn't help but look at this person twice.
"City Lord Bai, could you please tell me the identity of the monk who sells the spirit-nourishing liquid?" Lu Chen asked tentatively with a calm face.
Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, Bai Suran's expression changed slightly, but returned to the same state in an instant, and smiled at Lu Chen.
"This is a bit against the rules. Fellow Daoist Lu only needs to get the spirit nourishing liquid. Don't ask about anything else." After Bai Suran finished speaking, he turned and looked towards the auction house.
At this time, the auction had begun. A woman wearing a tight red dress, holding a fan-shaped magic weapon in her hand, slowly walked up from the backstage.
"Seniors, let me auction the first item."
"This object is a nine-leaf fan, made from the reverse scales of North Sea herring..."
This kind of auction is obviously not the first time it has been held. The woman on the stage also knows that everyone here is a Nascent Soul cultivator. Apart from introducing the items, there is not much nonsense.
Lu Chen was sitting in the private room. He had no interest in the auction items. At this moment, he couldn't help but use his consciousness to scan the venue.
What surprised him was that some kind of formation seemed to be arranged in the private room at the auction venue, which could block his spiritual consciousness and prevent him from finding out who was sitting in it.
