Chapter 878: Cangyang Green Snake (Please Subscribe)_1

Xu Sheng felt the fluctuation of his identity, but no cry of alarm appeared on his cheeks...

Smiling, he said, "Is that so? I am the Family Head of the Xu family from the city opposite Tianfeng City!"

Meanwhile, Bai Gongyu, feeling the oppressive force emanating from the man next to her, quietly bowed her head...

In her heart, she thought frantically, "Ah, ah, ah, what is Xu Sheng talking about? The Family Head of another city's Xu family? Isn't he from the Lower Realm?"

Moreover, looking at Xu Sheng's demeanor, one could see he lied without a flutter in his heart or a tremble in his hand!

The man opposite, after hearing what Xu Sheng said, now cast a somewhat doubtful glance at Xu Sheng and narrowed his eyes, "Family Head of the Xu family? As far as I know, the Xu family was annihilated by the Xie Family a long time ago..."

Bai Gongyu panicked instantly, her inner voice crying out urgently, "It's over, now we will definitely be exposed!"

If they were thrown out of Qingyang Auction House, wouldn't that be incredibly humiliating?

Little did she know, the corners of Xu Sheng's mouth curved upward, and he said indifferently, "Unfortunately, I am the only survivor of the Xu family."

Of course, the man could not be so easily convinced of Xu Sheng's identity and said coldly, "Do you have any evidence? You should know that deceiving Qingyang Auction House comes with unbearable consequences!"

After these words fell, Xu Sheng's eyes hardened, and his body suddenly burst forth with an incredibly terrifying power that swept towards the man before him...

Under this intense coercion, the man's face changed instantly, and he took several steps backward...

Xu Sheng smiled faintly again, "Now, are we qualified to enter?"

After staring at Xu Sheng for a few seconds, the man stepped aside and said respectfully, "Family Head Xu, please..."

Xu Sheng slightly nodded, reached out to pat the shoulder of the stunned Shangguan Lin beside him, and said gently, "What are you still dazing for, let's go!"

With that, he walked toward the interior, and Bai Gongyu, finally snapping back to reality, followed Xu Sheng's steps with a somewhat numb expression...

In her heart, she kept pondering...

"Xu Sheng is obviously telling blatant lies, why did that man choose to believe him??"

All she wanted to say was two words: preposterous!

Watching the receding figures of Xu Sheng and Bai Gongyu, the man's eyes merely flickered a few times before he resumed his post to continue the watch!!

...

After entering the High-level Auction Pavilion, one could see that there weren't many guests attending the auction, only about a dozen!

Although the auction stage was lit up, it looked empty and seemed like it hadn't started yet...

Xu Sheng and Bai Gongyu casually found seats near the front and sat down...

Seeing Bai Gongyu still in a daze, Xu Sheng chuckled and said, "Feather Junior Sister, what are you still thinking about?"

Roused by Xu Sheng's words, Bai Gongyu stared at him earnestly and asked, "Xu... Xu Sheng, you couldn't really be the Family Head of the Xu family, could you?"

Xu Sheng's eyebrows raised, and he said with a half smile, "Have you been thinking about this issue all this time?"

Bai Gongyu rolled her eyes unusually, "What else? If you're not the Family Head of the Xu family, why would that man let us in?"

The more she thought about it, the more she felt this possibility was great!

Xu Sheng stretched out his hand and knocked heavily on her head, explaining, "Silly girl, all he needed to do was to determine whether we were qualified to enter, and having seen that my strength was far superior to his, what does it matter if my true identity isn't the Family Head of the Xu family?"

After hearing Xu Sheng's explanation, Bai Gongyu's delicate lips twitched a few times, "There's... there's such a method??"

As the two conversed, they unwittingly attracted the attention of the other bidders nearby…

They all began to whisper and discuss...

"Look quickly! That young man and woman seem so youthful, yet they have managed to enter this High-level Auction Pavilion; their identities must be extraordinary!"

"Indeed! They must be genius disciples from a major clan or sect!"

"If we could curry favor with them, it might benefit our families!"

"Although I really want to know their identities, better not to ask; we must adhere to Qingyang Auction House's rules!"

"Have you heard? It seems that at today's auction, only the Wang Family, one of the three great families of Tianfeng City, has come. The White Palace Family and the Mo Family apparently clashed this morning and both suffered heavy losses!"

"I heard about it too! After such a fight, the Wang Family is likely to become the hegemon of Tianfeng City!"

"Shh! Stop talking; the auction is about to begin!"

As their conversation ended, a woman dressed in a pale pink robe that revealed her snow-white thighs stepped onto the auction stage, twisting her exquisitely slender body and walking with graceful steps...

Her pink-purple eyes then looked down at the bidders below, and with an extremely pleasing ethereal voice, she announced, "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this auction event. I am the Auctioneer in charge of this session!"

Unlike the noisy atmosphere at the junior and intermediate auction halls, the bidders in the high-level auction pavilion had more discerning tastes, hence the overall ambiance was very calm…

The female auctioneer clearly knew this and wasted no time with idle chatter…

With a gentle tone, she said, "Let us not delay further, and begin today's auction!"

"The first item for auction is a Low-grade Xuan Level Spiritual Weapon! Cangyang Green Snake!"

After these words, a muscled man carried a large emerald-green box onto the auction stage, and after quickly walking up, he carefully opened it...

Subsequently, the spiritual artifact inside was revealed...

One could see that the Cangyang Green Snake measured around three feet in length, its entire body a dark green color. Just looking at it from a distance, one could feel a chilly aura…

Of course, its most unique feature was the numerous lifelike green snakes carved on the flat side of the blade, their malevolent slit pupils seeming to choose their prey…

It was then that a few voices began to emerge from the bidders below...

"Such a chilling longsword, just the sight of it gives an unsettling feeling…"

"Exactly! Even though it is a Low-grade Xuan Level Spiritual Weapon, who knows how many Spirit Stones it will require!"

"This sword is so unique, my Lin Family must have it!!"

The female auctioneer smiled and explained, "As everyone can see, this spiritual artifact is not referred to as a sword because of its unique serpentine patterns. Besides, its tip contains a powerful poison, which can greatly weaken an opponent's combat ability if it inflicts a wound during a duel!"

"The starting bid for this sword is Three Thousand Spirit Stones, with each increase no less than three hundred Spirit Stones!"

No sooner had her voice fallen than a bidder exclaimed, "I bid Three Thousand Spirit Stones! Please grant my Lin Family some face."

With this leading remark, other voices soon joined in...

"Hmph, what use is this sword to a small family like yours, Lin Family? I bid Three Thousand Five Hundred Spirit Stones!!"

"My Li Family bids Three Thousand Eight Hundred Spirit Stones!!"

"Stop fighting over it! My Zhao Family bids Four Thousand Three Hundred Spirit Stones!!!"
