SFS Chapter 811 Auction
Chapter 811 Auction
The individual competition ended much faster than the other members of the Tianhuang clan had expected. The Tianhuang clan was undoubtedly in first place, having lost only three games. Their score of twenty-two points directly surpassed the second-place Bihai Palace by three points.
Seeing this result, the other top five forces in the Northern Territory had nothing to say.
However, after the individual competition, there was a two-day off-season. After Lin Zhao transmitted Huang Qing into the Blue Fuzzy Secret Realm, he planned to go to a larger auction house in the Northern Territory to buy some immortal plants for refining medicine.
Before she even left the house, she received an invitation from the Lord of the Blue Sea Palace.
Lin Zhao was hesitating when Qu Shu suddenly appeared out of nowhere and walked up to him. "Let's go and meet the Lord of the Blue Sea Palace. Maybe what he wants to ask you for is what you want to do."
When it came time to meet the Lord of the Blue Sea Palace, Lin Zhao couldn't help but sigh that Qu Shu was simply a prophet.
The Lord of the Blue Sea Palace did invite her to participate in an auction at the largest auction house in the Northern Territory.
This auction was organized by the auction house specifically for such a grand event as the Northern Territory Competition.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been opened in these few days.
The auction lasts for three days, and today is the first day.
Noticing the respectful look Lin Zhao gave him, Qu Shu said helplessly, "Actually, I found you because of this matter. It's not that I guessed it right, but the auction house over there also sent us an invitation."
What else could happen if the Lord of the Blue Sea Palace comes here at this time?
Lin Zhao sent him a thoughtful voice: "You are so happy to go to the auction. Is there what you want?"
Qu Shu smiled; "What do you think?"
Lin Zhao: “…” I understand. There must be one.
The Lord of the Blue Sea Palace introduced his accompanying disciples to Lin Zhao while observing Lin Zhao and Qu Shu, and felt that they were such a perfect match and that the Tianhuang Clan was so lucky.
Of course, he also noticed the communication between the two, but because he had a preconceived idea that the two were related, he was able to accept it.
When Lin Zhao was paying attention to what he said, the Lord of the Blue Sea Palace smiled and got to the point: "Qingqing has been talking to me about the young master these days. After meeting him today, I can see that his reputation is well-deserved."
Lin Zhao was really not good at dealing with these interpersonal relationships, so she just laughed it off when she heard it. Fortunately, she had Qu Shu, a social expert, who praised her back with ease and made the Lord of the Bi Hai Palace feel flattered.
“No wonder Young Master Lin likes Master Qu Shu. If I were a woman, I would become a Taoist partner with Master Qu Shu.” The Lord of the Bihai Palace said with a smile.
Lin Zhao and Qu Shu's expressions changed subtly.
Qu Shu's tone was a little lighter, "Palace Master, you are overthinking it. Qu Shu and the young master have no special relationship."
A gleam of light flashed in the eyes of the Lord of the Blue Sea Palace.
After all, what he just said was not only flattering, but also probing.
Since Lin Zhao has the potential to become an emperor in the future, they in the Bi Hai Palace certainly want to have a good relationship with her.
"Oh?"
Lin Zhao had come into contact with all kinds of people over the years, so she immediately said, "Lin Zhao already has a Taoist partner and a daughter in the lower world."
The Lord of the Jade Sea Palace waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay. Young Master is so talented, how can he not have someone to serve him? Although we in the Jade Sea Palace don't have anything else, we still have many sword servants with good qualifications."
When Lin Zhao heard this, she suddenly had an urge to cover her face.
To put it simply, a sword servant has the same role as a sword maid, but one serves female cultivators and the other serves male cultivators. They gain benefits by serving powerful cultivators.
This kind of character often has a certain qualification for cultivation, but it is not high, and no suitable sect is willing to accept them as formal disciples, but because of their outstanding looks or skills, they choose this path.
Lin Zhao had always been aware of the shady ways of the cultivation world, but he had always declined any invitation to any of them. He never expected that one day, he would be in the upper realm and it would be his turn.
This Bi Hai Palace is really a bit... unruly.
But think about it, how could a sect that could accept an orphan girl who had offended the young master of Lingxiao Sect as its young master take this aspect so seriously?
"Lin Zhao appreciates the palace master's good intentions, but Lin Zhao does not have this intention."
The Lord of the Blue Sea Palace was not the kind of person who would force anyone to do anything, so when he saw Lin Zhao’s refusal, he did not insist.
Fortunately, Lin Zhao and Ji Qing had a good relationship and agreed to go to the auction with him, which was enough to show his attitude.
Arriving at the auction, Lin Zhao entered the VIP room with the Lord of the Blue Sea Palace. Before entering the VIP room, she felt an extremely sharp gaze falling on her.
She paused, looked back, and met the eyes of the Lingxiao Sect's leader, which were filled with murderous intent.
This time Lin Zhao did not give in, but there was some provocation in her eyes.
The aura of the Lingxiao Sect's leader changed, and before he could make a move, his oppression was blocked by another force that was no less powerful than his.
The next moment, the Lord of the Blue Sea Palace smiled and reminded everyone: "Old man, the North Region Auction House is not your Lingxiao Sect's territory."
The Lingxiao Sect leader glanced at the Bihai Palace leader and snorted coldly: "I hope you can always hide behind others in the future."
These words were naturally directed at Lin Zhao.
Although the Lord of the Blue Sea Palace was no match for him, if a real fight broke out here, he would not be able to defeat the opponent in a short time. When the strong men of the Sky Phoenix Clan came, the Lord of the Blue Sea Palace did not think he could still win against two of them at one.
Thinking of this, Lingxiao Sect's leader Mosuo flicked the ring on his hand and looked at Lin Zhao with an increasingly unfriendly look.
The orphan girl that his wife had let go became a witch in the Blue Sea Palace. Although she posed no threat to him, she was enough to disgust the younger generation of the Lingxiao Sect.
The Sect Master of Lingxiao Sect didn’t know what kind of threat Lin Zhao, who was let go by his madam this time, would pose to Lingxiao Sect and himself, but it would definitely be no less than that of the witch from the Bihai Palace.
So no matter what, he had to find a way to kill Lin Zhao quietly, even if it offended the Tianhuang Clan and the Ancient Dragon Clan.
As long as he can't get any evidence from the Tianhuang Clan and the Ancient Dragon Clan, he's a strong man at the level of the Immortal Emperor, and the Ancient Dragon Clan, even though they have no legitimate reason, can't easily threaten his life.
The leader of Lingxiao Sect glanced at Lin Zhao meaningfully, but didn't say much.
Little did he know that while he was looking at Lin Zhao, someone was also looking at him.
Qu Shu's gaze lingered on the other person for a long time, then he curled his lips, with a strange light in his eyes.
Lin Zhao looked at him: "Aren't you leaving?"
Qu Shu came back to his senses and asked, "What does it mean that something about a dead person suddenly appeared?"
Lin Zhao subconsciously asked, "Her descendants have appeared?"
Qu Shu shook his head: "She is back."
The real target of his enemy, whom he had been waiting for for so many reincarnations, was finally revealed.
Lin Zhao didn't understand what Qu Shu said. She just felt that he was a little weird, but she didn't think much about it: "Who is back? An elder you know?"
"That's about right." Qu Shu didn't say much about this matter.
