The Lord System
Chapter 08's


After finishing dinner together, Xiao Kang told Xiao San about the information he had obtained in the city some time ago.


According to the information that Xiao Kang had said, that a few more days in Lin'an city would be held a grand auction there, the Treasure Valley Pavilion was one of the largest auction venues in the Wu empire, And there are many branches scattered in various corners of the city.


Xiao Kang also got information that the main auction was a very rare item and was very sought after by everyone, therefore all the influential people in the Wu empire would come at the auction.


" It makes me wonder, what kind of thing can make everyone feel like getting it ? " Siao San said as he stirred the water in his cup.


" San-gege, are you going to the auction ? What if Gege was caught by the people from the Tang clan in Lin'an city ? " Task Xiao Lien who felt anxious if she would let Xiao San go to the city, because of their current status of 'the one who is dead', and it'll be a problem if those people find out they're still alive.


Sensing the worry from his lover Xiao San looked at Xiao Lien's face with a smile, then put down her palm and stroked her hair, " trust your gege, Lien'er, no one can beat me, even if there's some trouble, I'll solve it quickly." Reply Xiao San with compassion and was able to dispel all the anxiety in Xiao Lien's heart.


" So what will the young master do ? " Tell Cao Ren.


" I have a plan, Cao Que I want you to do something for me "


" Okay young master "


After a long conversation, Xiao San invited Xiao Lien to rest, while Cao Ren and Xiao Kang went outside the hut just in case, and for Cao Que is doing the task given by his young master.


...***...


...Next day~...


The morning sun had illuminated the entire room of this hut, the sounds of cooking utensils and the aroma of cooking had already begun to be felt, Xiao San who felt it immediately woke up from his sleep, and the, he looked to his right and left apparently Xiao Lien had been awake since earlier.


Then Xiao San stepped his foot outside the hut to wash his face and then re-entered, "good morning young master" said the three subordinates of Xiao San.


" Good morning to you all, you know where Lien'er is ? " Tanya Xiao San who did not see her lover was.


Suddenly a voice sounded from behind him. " Gege ? Are you awake ? " It seems that Xiao Lien ran out of the kitchen picking up some dishes for everyone.


" Lien'er why are you doing all this ? This is quite dangerous for you, let those who do it "reply Xiao San immediately take out all the dishes that Xiao Lien had on them.


" No Gege, how can I just keep quiet here, after all I've been practicing to memorize the whole corner of this hut " said Xiao Lien who felt uncomfortable because she was the only one who did nothing.


Well for this time Xiao San just let it go and warned him not to need to force himself, some food menu was ready to be presented on the dining table, then they all began to eat it solemnly.


After finishing breakfast, Xiao San and Cao Que would go to Lin'an city to attend the auction.


Originally Xiao Lien asked to come with Xiao San, but Xiao San rejected her subtly, he did not want that her lover would come with the two of them to Lin'an city, he said, because no one knows what kind of trouble is going to happen there.


" Well I see, Gege be careful there, remember to use your mask to hide your identity. " Said Xiao Lien while hugging Xiao San.


Xiao San only smiled and then said to Cao Ren and Xiao Kang to stay alert to guard his lover and this old hut.


After saying goodbye, Xiao San and Cao Que went to Lin'an City riding two horses.


During the trip Xiao San and Cao Que received many attacks from some of the ferocious beasts in Youming Valley, the two of them deliberately did not give off the aura of their strength in order to hunt.


...***...


...Some time has passed~...


...Lin'an City...


Not far from Lin'an city, Xiao San and Cao Que looked at the city from a distance, many people were waiting in line to be able to come to the city, many merchants came from other cities to trade in this city.


" It was so crowded in this city "murm Xiao San who immediately spurred his horse to approach the city.


But he did not go into the city through the main gate of the city, but entered it through the back door.


After entering the city through the back door, in black robes and white masks they wore They walked on the roofs of buildings.


The two of them searched where the pavilion building was located, after finding it in the middle of the city square, they went again to look for an inn.


Because the auction will be held one more day, Xiao San looked for where the inn was a bit cornered from the city, because he was sure that there were many important people in the inn nearby.


After successfully finding an inn, they both entered it, it looks like this inn building is very small and a little outdated..


" Welcome sir and miss at the white twilight inn, is there anything I can help "asked an old man who welcomed the arrival of Xiao San and Cao Que.


Although the old man was a little surprised at the clothes these two people were wearing, they were still customers.


" I want to book the two best rooms in this place" Xiao San told the old man.


" Okay sir, I'll take you to your room, for the fee is 40 silver coins already including master's dinner "


Then Xiao San pretended to reach into his pocket and took out 1 gold coin and gave it to the old man, the old man who got paid a lot was certainly reluctant to accept it, he said, but Xiao San still gave it away.


" Then thank you for your generosity, sir, let you and the lady follow me "


Then the two of them began to walk following the old man into a room on the second floor of this inn.


Arriving at the room, the old man resigned.


" Rest now, we will leave tomorrow" Xiao San said as he opened the door to his room.


" Good young master" said Cao Que who immediately entered his room.
