Chapter 987 – The Three Martial Monarchs" Sons
The crowd was astounded. The experts in the group had all achieved the peak of Undefeatable Martial Progenitor Realm. Their eyes were extremely cold, with no sign of emotion, indicating that they were death servants who had gone through unique training.
Guarded by peak Undefeatable Martial Progenitor Realm death servants, who exactly were those young men?
“Judging from their formation, they must be the three sons of the Martial Monarchs! I thought it was just a rumor, but they actually came for the auction!”
“What? Three sons of the Martial Monarchs?”
The crowd gasped. In the Middle Continent, apart from the core disciples of various factions, the children of Martial Monarchs were greatly feared by the cultivators. Even if their cultivation was not too outstanding, their status was enough to intimidate people.
“Are you deaf? Move out of the way!” The elder leading the group snapped with a conceited expression.
Even though many people were annoyed, they still cleared a path.
“Three sons of the Martial Monarchs? How imperious, what if I’m not willing to make way?” A sinister voice could be heard as a figure wearing a black robe and a skeletal mask blocked the middle of the road.
“Young people nowadays have no respect at all.” An old white-haired man holding a jar of wine exclaimed while drinking a mouthful from the jar.
“HAHA.”
An ordinary-looking middle-aged man with a bulky figure stepped out from the crowd and burst out laughing.
“Crow-Wheel King of Law! It’s him, he’s here at the Righteous Sect!”
“Gasp, I heard that he has killed at least two sons of Martial Monarchs and five core disciples in cruel manners. He even managed to escape from being hunted by a Martial Monarch!”
“That’s the White-Haired Wine Immortal, the Vice-Leader of the Shadow PaG.o.da. Apart from his cultivation of the half-Martial Monarch Realm, his status in the entire Shadow PaG.o.da is second only to the Serene Shadow Monarch!”
“Holy c.r.a.p, the Red Fist is here too, he’s the representative of the Fist Sect!”
“Look, it’s the Barefoot Monk of the Bodhi Temple!”
Voices filled with astonishment blurted out.
The reason being that those who had stepped forward were incredibly famous throughout the entire Middle Continent, and were on the verge of achieving the Martial Monarch Realm as well, worthy enough to be considered an authority.
The sons of Martial Monarchs possessed incredible status, but these authorities were not ones they would want to mess with either.
“It’s a surprise to see so many seniors here at the auction. I apologize for our previous att.i.tude.” Among the three young men, one of them brought his fists together and said with a smile.
“Mind your words next time.” The White-Haired Wine Immortal said before he proceeded to the entrance.
The Crow-Wheel King of Law and the rest followed behind him.
Even though they disapproved of the att.i.tude of the three Martial Monarchs" sons, they were not willing to befoe the three Martial Monarchs for no reason.
The three Martial Monarchs" sons led their crew and followed the authorities into the venue without their previous scornful att.i.tude.
The crowd was utterly satisfied.
Weren’t you being very smug just then?
“This auction is getting quite interesting, with so many VIPs attending it.” Qin Nan could not help but exclaimed in his heart. His eyes flickered as he recalled the three Martial Monarchs" sons.
They should not be underestimated either.
Their previous scornful att.i.tude was entirely on purpose, to lure out the authorities hiding in the dark. If it weren’t for them, even Qin Nan’s left eye would be unable to sense their presences.
“Come, let’s go inside too.”
Qin Nan said to Sima Kong, as they followed the crowd and showed the Five Dragons Badge at the entrance. Under the astounded gaze of the servants, they entered the venue.
“Greetings, I’m the First Elder of the Righteous Sect, Xu Guozheng. I’ll be your guide for the auction.” As soon as Qin Nan and Sima Kong entered the place, a white-haired old man hurried his way over.
The white-haired old man glanced at Qin Nan and Sima Kong curiously. That was the Five Dragons Badge; even the three Martial Monarchs" sons, the White-Haired Wine Immortal, and the others were not worthy enough to have it.
There were only three of the Five Dragon Badges in the entire Middle Continent.
“Sure.” Qin Nan nodded.
“The auction has thirty thousand seats, each built with Sky Meteor Jade. This was the first-floor, the second-floor consisted of the wood-cla.s.s rooms, built with Magical Dragon Jade of Mount Taizan. The third-floor…”
While Xu Guozheng explained, he led them straight to the highest floor—the seventh-floor—before coming to a stop.
The seventh-floor only had three rooms in total.
Xu Guozheng took out his badge and deactivated the protective aura, before leading Qin Nan and Sima Kong into the room.
“F**k me…” Sima Kong could not help but cursing as he stepped inside it.
Qin Nan was stunned too.
The room was not enormous, with a length of fifty zhang. At the center hung a watery screen made of dragon bones, with mystical wine, tea, fruits, etc. placed on the table at the side. A burning cauldron was placed close to the center, emitting a faint golden mist, which had a pleasant scene and was able to excite one’s cultivation.
Everything in the room was extremely valuable.
The outstanding design of the room itself had turned it into a great cultivation ground.
Xu Guozheng wore a curious look. Was this their first time there at the Five Dragons Room?
Little did Qin Nan and Sima Kong know, the three Martial Monarchs" sons, the Crow-Wheel King of Law, the White-Haired Wine Immortal, the Red Fist, and the rest of the authorities proceeded to the rooms on the sixth-floor. Some were having discussions with their crew, while others were resting with their eyes closed.
However, at that instant, everyone raised their head with a stunned expression.
Their gazes were fixated on the room that Qin Nan had entered.
What happened?
Did someone just go inside the room on the seventh-floor?
Did that mean a Martial Monarch Realm expert was also there at the auction?
“Quick, contact the Shadow PaG.o.da and check who the Martial Monarch is.” The White-Haired Wine Immortal immediately ordered.
“The scale of the auction isn’t too impressive this time. Why would a Martial Monarch be here? Hopefully, he’s not interested in the same item I am…”
The Red Fist murmured with flickering eyes.
In addition to them, the other authorities fell into deep thought.
The presence of the Martial Monarch would cause things to escalate.
If their plan somehow involved the Martial Monarch, it would be a disaster for them.
“I never expected a Martial Monarch Realm expert to be here.” A young man in the room where the three Martial Monarchs" sons were said with a troubled look, “Does he know about that thing?”
“I don’t think so. We also heard the news coincidentally, thus it’s still hard to tell if it actually exists.” The young man who had apologized before said, “Either way, we have to keep an eye on the Crow-Wheel King of Law, and try our best to secure it at the Yellow Spring Shop.”
The other two Martial Monarchs’ sons nodded with pa.s.sionate expressions.
