Sima You Yue and the others looked towards the door as Chou Xiao Tian and Lian Hong walked in from outside.
“How did you guys get here?”
“When we were outside, we heard someone mention your name so we decided to check if you guys were still around. Who would have thought that it would really be you.” Chou Xiao Tian walked over and said.
“Big Brother Chou, you haven’t gone back to Central Province?”
“Brother Lian Ze invited me back to stay in the Innumerable Green Palace as a guest for a few days. So, I shelved that journey to the side for a while.” Chou Xiao Tian said, “However, I won’t be returning to Central Province any time soon.”
“Why not?”
“The Xuan Yuan Pavilion will be having a huge auction in Central Area in two months. I spoke with my master yesterday, and he wants me to head to Central Area to meet up with him.” Chou Xiao Tian replied, “When will you guys be heading to Central Area? If you go early, we could head there together.”
Bei Gong Tang lifted up her queue number and said, “We still have twenty days to go.”
“You guys went to queue up?” Lian Ze looked at the familiar number plate and said, “Didn’t I tell you to look for me when you came and I would arrange things for you? How long have you been here?” ( NovelFull )
“A few days.” Sima You Yue said, “Your barrier to entry to your Innumerable Green Palace is too high. We wouldn’t be able to meet you even if we went.”
“You guys have left quite a big impression on our Innumerable Green Palace!” Chou Xiao Tian said with a smile.
“Just saying it as it is.” You Yue shrugged, “Furthermore, we’ve provoked some of your Innumerable Green Palace men. If we went to find you, we’d just be looking for trouble.”
“You were the ones who got into conflict Xia Ying Ying and the others?” Lian Ze pulled a chair from the opposite table and sat down.
“That’s right. Didn’t you guys see those Xia clansmen come looking for us just now?” You Yue said gloomily.
“That should be the work of Xia Zhong and Wu Qiao Qiao.” Lian Ze mused, “Our vice palace head has confined Xia Ying Ying and the others, so our Innumerable Green Palace is still fair.”
“I’d also heard about it. I even heard that Xiao Zhong went to look for the vice palace head only to get heavily chastised!” Chou Xiao Tian had been living in the Innumerable Green Palace the past few days, so he was pretty familiar with this kind of juicy news.
Xia Ying Ying and the others had been confined? You Yue’s eyebrows raised. This was something she truly didn’t expect.
“The vice palace head even scolded Xia Zhong and said the Innumerable Green Palace’s men were not to cause any trouble. That’s why you can’t blame us for what Xia Zhong and the others have done.” Lian Ze pretended to be extremely grieved as he looked at Sima You Yue.
“Even if your vice palace head is still rather smart, your younger generation still has ruined your reputation. Your inner circle knows what kind of people you are, but everyone only sees what the younger generation show.” Sima You Lin said. ( NovelFull )
“On this point, it really isn’t great. Those few who have grown up in the Innumerable Green Palace really have rather arrogant personalities. However, it is still only a few of them. Most of the youngsters are still relatively good.” Lian Ze said.
Sima You Yue shrugged. She didn’t comment because it had nothing to do with her anyway. They had no reason to debate on it.
Those people in the inn felt like they were seeing things when they saw what transpired. Lian Ze was the palace head, so everyone knew him. However, based on what he said just now, Lian Ze was trying to absolve the Innumerable Green Palace of guilt, as if he didn’t want the other party to look unfavorably on his sect?
This made everyone highly curious towards their identities. When they recalled how she had numerous contracted beasts, three of which were sacred beasts, which even talents like Xia Ying Ying and the others had no right to have, they felt that they must be even more powerful!
“Big Brother Chou, is that auction you talked about really big? Even you master and the others want to go. In that case, will those from other districts come as well?” Sima You Yue asked.
“It’s said that there hasn’t been one of this scale in many years. The quality of the items in the auction are always high. For example, the worst spirit tool would also be a divine ranked one. Furthermore, there are many varieties and rare items.” Lian Ze said, “There should be people from every continent who will want to attend. Our Innumerable Green Palace has received an invitation. Those who don’t receive an invitation are not allowed to go.”
“Why didn’t they choose to hold the auction in the central areas? Why have they come to the outer areas instead?” Sima You Yue didn’t understand.
“It is said that they want to temper their younger generation. This time, the younger generation is the one in charge of everything. It seems to be those who will govern the Xuan Yuan pavilion in the future.” Lian Zi said, “It’s said that the younger ones are the ones managing the things in the outer areas.”
“You Yue, are you guys going to participate in the auction?” Chou Xiao Tian asked.
“We’ll see. We have to see if we have enough time.” Sima You Yue said.
Being able to be invited in from the various districts would definitely attract a lot of people. However, they would have to first rescue some people after heading over there. How things would turn out in a situation like that was still rather uncertain to her.
If they could make it in time, it wouldn’t be bad to take a look.
“If the situation is rather complex, we would go to the auction before coming back too.” Bei Gong Tang said, “In any case, we’ve already waited for so many years. Two more months wouldn’t make a difference.”
She could see that You Yue was interested in the auction. She didn’t want to prevent her from going just because of herself.
“We’ll decide after seeing the situation there.” Sima You Yue said.
“Okay.”
“What are you guys talking about?” Chou Xiao Tian didn’t get it.
“You wouldn’t know even if we told you.” Sima You Yue sent him a withering look before turning to Lian Ze, saying, “Will you be able to help us leave this place right now?”
“Of course I can.” LIan Ze said with a smile, “We can leave now too.”
“I’ll go pay the bill.” Ouyang Fei stood up and went to the counter to settle the lodging fees for the past few days.
When shopkeeper Ma Liu tallied the sums, he said, “You guys stayed in the four rooms under the Heaven section, and it costs 15 intermediate ranked crystals for each room per day. Tallying nine days, your total is five hundred and forty intermediate ranked crystals.”
“Here you go.” Ouyang Fei took out five hundred and forty intermediate ranked crystals without even batting an eyelid.
They carried their things on them all the time, so there was nothing inside the room. The few of them left the inn directly and headed towards the area with the teleportation array.
The teleportation array was in the city, and wasn’t too far from where they were staying. They reached there after walking for half an hour.
“Palace Head Lian, are you here to check on things?” A worker ran over quickly when he saw Lian Ze.
There were no Innumerable Green Palace men assigned to manage this teleportation array, so it wasn’t considered to be their property.
“Nope.” Lian Ze said, “I’ve brought a few of my friends. They want to head to Central Area.”
“Palace Head Lian, there’s no way to do this.” The worker said, “The teleportation array spoilt this morning. We are currently looking for Great Master Hao to fix it.”
“It’s spoilt? What did Great Master Hao say?”
“Great Master Hao said that he would need three days to fix it.” The manager replied.
Lian Ze turned around and said to Sima You Yue and the others, “Great Master Hao is a great array master. If he said that it takes three days, that should be accurate. Since you have already released your rooms, why don’t you stay in Innumerable Green Palace for two days?”
Little Dream pinched Sima You Yue’s hand lightly, and Sima You Yue lowered her head to look at her. She nodded, “Okay then. We’ll have to trouble Palace Master Lian.”
“You Yue, you’re an array master too. Don’t you want to see what’s wrong with the teleportation array?” Chou Xiao Tian asked.
