Golden Phoenix Pavilion

Hayakawa, the largest city of Whuix province the same province where the village of Tardide is located, but the village is not only located in a much more remote corner of the province.

The city lord of Hayakawa city is also the Province Governor 'Icas Brack', a 3rd rank Primal Daoist at the age of 78 years, a righteous person who protects the week from the tyranny of the strong but according to Ryuu's sisters, 'a rotten fish even if it is covered by a banana leaf it will still stink', this was the case with the 'Icas Brack', who under the cover of righteous nature is a corrupted person rotten to the core.

As Ryuu's group neared the entrance of the city he saw there were two different entrances on their side of the city, one was meant for commoners and the other for the cultivators. They had to pay a fee of 1 Low Tiered Spirit Stone for the whole entourage.

Ryuu: "The city tax here is very Low compare to the last one where Mr. Porky was guarding."

Antariskh: "This is the real standard Tax around the entire empire for capital city of each province, if the city governor/ province governor changes it without permission he/ she will be punished because of it."

Ryuu nodded at that, as he drank into the sight of the city they visited all the new people customs their behavior the beautiful architecture he saw.

Antariskh: "Find some nice hotel with nice rooms for us, we will be staying here for a couple of days at the very least. Now brother do you want to explore the city."

Ryuu nodded so hard that his head might have gotten lose from his head.

Ryuu accompanied by his sisters went out for a tour of the city, this time his eldest sister held his hands firmly.

Ryuu a little embarrassed as he spoke, "Sister you do not have to hold my hand I am bug boy now."

Antariskh: "uh huh we did the same mistake before and we lost you and you somehow managed to pick a fight with an Immortal."

Ryuu blushed at that he had no excuse for his behavior even if his sisters saved him that day, as his 1st mistress always states 'Prevention is better than cure.'

As they made their way through the 'Bazaar', they were greeted by a plethora of cries as vendors tried selling their goods, they would usually try to literally drag any passerby passing in front of their stores but his sisters' aura was enough to mark them as dangerous as such the vendors only tried to garner their attention without any form of physical contact.

Ryuu's attention was brought towards an old man selling some ornamental hair pins, he dragged his older sisters towards the man as he spoke, "Big sister I want to buy you all a hair pin, so please chose whichever you like."

His sisters smiled at his kind gesture as they chose a few nice looking ones, while Shamiran helped Ryuu to bargain with the vendor and bought all three for them.

Antariskh then guided them to an auction house, 'Golden Phoenix Pavilion', was written in bold letters. Antariskh: "Ryuu we are going to visit the auction which will take place here within a few days there will be various things which will be auctioned here, also if you want you can sell some of your pills which you have concocted here as well as some of your talismans."

Ryuu was always at awe at the information gathering capability of his sisters, they haven't been here for much longer than a few hours yet she had already found so much about this place even the auction that will be held a few days from today, as such he voiced his concern nervously, "Sister, do you think that I should auction my stuff, I am only a peak level Wanxiang Adept Alchemist and Array Master, I do not think I should sell my stuff like this there will be much better people who would have their stuff sold."

Sylvana snorted at that, "Baby brother I have seen your work as such I can assure you that your stuff is top notch compared to anyone work within this province."

Ryuu was stunned hearing that a little bit more confident as he thought, 'If my sister says so it means I will not be embarrassing my teachers honor by churning out subpar stuff.'

Sylvana spoke to her sisters, "Sister I will take Ryuu to register his stuffs for the auction, if you wish you may retire for today."

Antariskh: "Well I will retire then what about you Shamian?"

Shamiran: "Well I will follow our eldest sister, well so long then and take care."

With that they left Ryuu with Sylvana who accompanied her into the 'Golden Phoenix Pavilion'.

A very young woman, dressed in a borderline salacious manner greeted them, "Greetings, my name is Reuben how may I serve you.", giving out a sweet smile accompanied by a look which activated Ryuu's flight or fight mode.

Sylvana kept a stoic visage while she inwardly frowned, 'this floozy, this is why I hate second rate auction houses it is fine to distract customers to make them bid more but to directly approach to gain more from them through such underhanded means is where I draw a line, this woman must have mistaken my baby brother as some spoiled rich young master from those clans around this place as such she thought she might gain some personal favor by acting as such, ugh what a disgusting person.'

Sylvana gave a reassuring one armed hug to Ryuu as she spoke, "My brother and I want to sell some of the products he created, I would love to speak with your manger about as such for wanting to put the items on auction.", she quickly flared a little bit of her aura causing the receptionist to shake with fear as she hurriedly informed her manager while guiding them inside a private room to conduct the business deal.

A few minutes later a tall man with white hair came he had such a smile which seemed that only Buddha was capable of.

"Hello my name is Jureks Lodiņš, I was informed that you have arrived with a business proposition."

He spoke politely, as he studied the two in front of him, a tall blue haired woman who had half of her face covered by a veil, but what caused him to shiver was the feeling he felt as he gazed at the woman who sat there looking like a queen and he a lowly peon tried to gaze at her face, not to mention the feeling of raw intoxicated power which was being released from her, 'this woman is dangerous very much so', a thought ran through her mind.

The companion of the woman was another matter a child of about 12 sat by her side, he was sitting like some price with prim and proper etiquette much better than the young masters he occasionally had to deal with.

Sylvana spoke, "There are some items which my brother wishes to auction, and as such we accompanied him to strike a deal to have them auctioned on your 'Grand Auction', which will be held a few days from today."

The man while he had a smile on his face frowned inwardly at that, 'If the woman had some items which she herself had created it would be different but things created by a child, I will have to politely decline the last thing I want is some strong individual gunning for my life, but first at least I have to put up a show.'

Jureks Lodiņš: "My Lord and Lady, if you would be kind enough to show me items you wish to auction."

Sylvana nodded at his request as she spoke, "Ryuu, would please show a single sample of each item you wished to auction, remember the best you can make."

The man thought with disdain, 'the best does he have mud balls', only for his disdain to morph into a mixture of horror, amazement and most importantly disbelieve as Ryuu placed couple of his items he wishes to auction.
