a fifth rank alchemist!""After winning first place in the last grand competition, Senior Brother Guan went into seclusion and hasn't emerged. It is said that he wants to break through to become a fift..."Master, do you wish to meet him"

As if doubting her own ears, Ru Yu asked again.

As the shopkeeper of Qiankun Auction House, let alone the entire Luoyun Domain, even if you include the entire Zhutian Collection Domain, there wouldn't be more than a handful of people who have ever seen this man before.

Although the piece of Crimson Waterwood that Gingercloud brought out was indeed incredibly valuable, Yuruo never expected it to warrant a personal visit from the shopkeeper himself.

The man nodded and said, "This young master, I've been curious about him for a long time. Now he has become our most valued customer. As the shopkeeper, I should pay him a visit in person!"

Lead the way!

As the shopkeeper insisted, Ru Yu naturally didn't dare to say anything more. She hurriedly turned around and led the man towards the secret chamber where Jiang Yun was.

Inside the room, looking at Gingercloud who was calmly drinking tea, Tie Runan couldn't help but ask: "Brother, what exactly was that thing you just took out"

"It looks like a small piece of wood, but it's actually worth millions of top-grade heavenly stones"

Although Tie Ru Nv was very intelligent, she was limited by her family background and social status, which restricted her knowledge and understanding. Naturally, she did not recognize the Chi Shui Divine Wood.

Jiang Yun put down his teacup and smiled as he explained to Tie Rumu. Finally, he said: "The Red Water Divine Wood is just like the Tianzhu Fa Stone, both are things that can be encountered but not sought after, naturally priceless.

"

"If you meet a discerning person, don't say it's just millions, even if it were ten times more, I believe someone would try their best to get it!"

When Tie Ru Nan heard this, he was instantly stunned. His mouth dropped open in complete shock.

Ten million pieces of top-grade Tiandi stones, that already exceeded her imagination, she really didn't know how many Tiandi stones that would be.

After a long while, she continued to ask: "Brother, since this thing is so precious, where did you get it from"

Jiang Yun smiled and said, "I'm lucky! I found it!"

That section of crimson-hued divine wood was naturally something that Jiang Yun had just removed from a chair in his former room.

Although taking out the Red Water Godwood would be ostentatious, and might even bring danger upon himself, there was no other way. He had to participate in this auction.

Otherwise, if you anger the celestial inspector, your life will be forfeit as well.

Moreover, he believed that the Qiankun Auction House, since its establishment, had handled items worth billions, if not tens of billions. It shouldn't be motivated to kill him for just a piece of Chi Shui Divine Wood.

Tie Ru Nan glared at Jiang Yun, "I don't believe you, there's no way this Chi Shui Divine Wood was something you picked up."

However, ever since she guessed Jiang Yun's true identity, she knew very well that the secrets on Jiang Yun were not something she should inquire about.

So, she didn't press him further at the moment. Instead, she changed the subject and said, "Big brother, that shopkeeper obviously looks down on you and deliberately makes things difficult for you."

"If I were you, we'd just take back that piece of the Crimson Water Divine Wood," We shouldn't participate in this auction."

For this, Ginger Cloud was also well aware, but he wasn't angry.

With a slight smile, Jiang Yun said: "As I told you before, businessmen are profit-driven. They run shops and do business. Whoever can bring them greater profits, they will naturally gravitate towards that person and be more polite to them."

"You won't believe this, but I took out that piece of Chi Shui Divine Wood, and the shop owner himself might come to see me!"

As soon as Jiang Yun's words fell, a hearty man's voice came from outside the secret room: "Haha, Young Master Gu is indeed as insightful as ever. Qiu has come here specially to pay respects to Young Master Gu!"

Hearing the sound from outside and seeing a sneer curl up at the corner of Jiang Yun's mouth, Tie Ruxu instantly understood that Jiang Yun had already known about the shopkeeper's arrival. Therefore, those words were intentionally said for the other party to hear!

It's obvious that Jiang Yun is also dissatisfied with the other party's deliberate difficulties.

"Old Master!"

Meanwhile, the door to the secret room opened, and Yu entered with a middle-aged man.

Ginger Cloud's gaze fell upon the man. He wore a simple and clean long robe, his neatly combed long hair streaked with some white. A smile played on his face, which held traces of vicissitudes.

Although this person's appearance is not particularly handsome, he exudes an air of refinement that makes people want to get closer.

To be honest, the other party's appearance was quite different from what Gingercloud had imagined.

In Jiang Yun's imagination, someone who could be the shopkeeper of both Qiankun Auction House and Qiankun Building, and run the business so well, must either be a cunning merchant with a sly face or a ruthless character.

But the other party felt like a scholar, and the feeling he gave Ginger Cloud reminded him of his senior brother, so unconsciously, he developed a few more points of goodwill.

The man strode up to Jiang Yun's face and bowed, "This must be Young Master Gu, right"

"Allow me to introduce myself, I am Qiu Ge, the proprietor of both Qiankun Building and the Qiankun Auction House. For my previous actions that may have offended you, I sincerely apologize. I hope Lord Gu will be able to forgive me!"

After finishing his speech, Qiu Ge also bowed deeply!

Looking at Qiu Ge's sincere face, Jiang Yun also hurriedly stood up, with a smile on his face, he helped the other party up and said, "Mr. Qiu is too kind. It was I who was rude to come here and disturb your business. Please forgive me!"

Their humble and polite demeanor made Ruyu and Tie Ruman, standing beside them, secretly scoff.

Although the two people had once been enemies, they are now as close as old friends.

After exchanging pleasantries for a long while, Jiang Yun and Qiu Ge finally took their seats separately.

And Qiu Ge once again looked at Jiang Yun with a thoughtful gaze, and said with emotion: "It is said that heroes emerge in youth. Seeing Mr. Gu so young and already possessing such wealth, it truly makes Qiu feel ashamed!"

"By the way, I wonder where Gu Gongzi is from"

Ginger Cloud waved his hand and said, "The shopkeeper is too kind. I come from a small place and am nothing special. It's Shopkeeper Qiu who is truly admirable for establishing a foothold in this turbulent region of Cloudy Mist. I wonder, Shopkeeper Qiu, where are you from"

Both of them were already testing each other, but naturally, neither of them could tell the truth.

In short, after chatting for a long time, Qiu Ge stood up and said, "Master Gu, these few days, you guys just stay here with me. When the auction begins, I'll have Ruyi take you there directly!"

I've been rather busy these past few days, and I'm afraid I won't have time to accompany you both anymore. If there's anything you need, just ask Ru Yu.

Ginger Cloud was also a little afraid to go out. Now this Ta'i City felt like it was about to be overcrowded, and having a place to stay would naturally be best.

Then I'll take my leave!

Qiu Ge said to Ru Yu, "Ru Yu, be sure to treat the ancient masters well!"

"Yes!"

"Well then, I'll take my leave!"

After Qiu Ge returned to his room, the smile on his face had faded.

And by his ear, once more sounded the woman's voice: "How is it"

Qiu Ge didn't answer immediately. Instead, she sat down and frowned, saying: "Although this person is young, everything he says and does is meticulous. He must have had an extremely special experience."

I increasingly feel that he should be someone from the Thirteen Great Forces, and furthermore, it's highly possible that he belongs to the Heavenly Patrol lineage!

I heard that the Celestial Watchers once secretly adopted a group of exceptionally gifted children, providing them with ample resources for training. They were then secretly sent into various other factions.

"This man surnamed Gu, is probably one of them!"

The woman's voice continued, "So what are you going to do"

"The main reason is that I don't know his true purpose now, so it's not good to startle the snake."

"Let's just wait and see. We'll see after the auction is over, once he leaves the Taiyi Realm..."

Then, Qiu Ge's voice suddenly stopped. A transmission jade slip appeared in his hand.

After finishing, a sharp chill appeared in his eyes, and he whispered: "The Wine Immortal has arrived, but he went straight to the Xu family!"ectations.Even, in his thoughts, could the Heavenly Venerable of Sealing have been, just like himself entering that rift back then, after delving deep into the Dream Abyss, encountered that ancient po...
