The Ruler
165. Xi City 2.
Qing Ruo and Long Chen walked out of the inn courtyard, continuously moving their feet towards the auction house.
Led by Long Chen, the two of them chatted casually, while enjoying the soothing atmosphere of Xi city.
" Ruler," Long Chen said hesitantly.
" Speak," Qing Ruo said kindly.
" Ruler, I feel that the youths earlier were not a good group."
" Just leave it. They didn't do us any harm anyway."
" The ruler is right. But what if they do bad things to other people?"
" If so, do we teach them a lesson? Long Chen, I don't think that's the way. There is a time to be quiet and a time to be a hero. But that doesn't mean I look at things like that."
" Good ruler, servant understand."
" Long Chen, what about the power that exists in this city?"
" Lord, this Xi city is controlled by twelve god clans and three ancient god clans, so that this city is safer than other cities. Even the Ice Jade auction house belonged to one of those clans" Long Chen explained.
Not long after, they finally saw a five-story pagoda building that seemed to be visited by many people.
" Ruler, that" said Long Chen pointing at the enormous building, as he continued to move closer to the building.
Not long after, they finally arrived.
" Lord, we don't need to line up like them, because we already have a golden badge" Long Chen said, as he saw Qing Ruo suddenly stopping among the crowd.
" Long Chen, that's not what I meant. Look at this group that came," Qing Ruo said asking Long to inspect the crowd.
Long Chen was silent for some time, while examining the crowd closely.
" Did you find anything?" qing Ruo asked.
" Ruler, out of this crowd, everyone has his own group. I sensed these fifteen to twenty visitors were people who had the same blood strength, but strangely they did not blend in, but separated from the rest of the group."
" Right," Qing Ruo said calmly.
" Lord, then what should we do?"
" We better not offend them." Approaching the entrance of the room.
" Mister," said the guard welcoming the arrival of Qing Ruo and Long Chen respectfully.
Before the guard asked, Qing Ruo had already addressed the golden badge he had, which the guard immediately responded to by calling out the special maid who was inside the room.
" Let's master," said the maid, bringing Qing Ruo into the room respectfully.
On the ground floor of the auction house, Qing Ruo could see hundreds of people with the cultivation level of God emperor warriors to the third level semi-immortals, appearing to be passing by in search of the various types of resources they needed.
" Young master do you want to look around and look for resources first or go straight into the auction hall?" ask the waiter kindly.
Qing Ruo was silent for a moment, then looked at Long Chen who was by her side.
" Long Chen, what about you?" qing Ruo asked.
" No need sir. We'd better go straight into the auction room instead" he replied respectfully, changing his call.
" Alright," Qing Ruo replied as she asked the servant to direct them.
" Miss, can I meet the manager of this place?"
" What does the young master mean?"
" Miss, other than wanting to attend this event, I also want to auction off the resources that I have."
The servant suddenly stopped his steps, looking at Qing Ruo seriously.
" Is the lord serious?"
" Of course," Qing Ruo replied, while showing two immortal golden apples. " Miss, is this auctionable?"
" Let's master," the maid said without replying, directing Qing Ruo and Long Chen towards the special room located on the third floor of the auction house.
While taking Qing Ruo towards the third floor. The servant explained the rules that were in that place.
" Young master, the ground floor is where we sell low-level to medium-level resources. The second floor is special for the auction event, and the third floor is a special place for the higher-ups and the transaction venue," he said, who Qing Ruo responded with a nod.
" What about the fourth and fifth floors?" Ask Long Chen.
" Mister, the fourth floor and the fifth floor are forbidden territories for the public," the maid replied kindly.
While chatting casually, they finally arrived at the door of the room guarded by two warriors, who were elementary-level semi-eternal warriors.
" Call miss. This young master wanted to meet," said the servant speaking to one of the guards, while explaining Qing Ruo's purpose.
" good. Sir wait a moment," said the guard, then entered the room.
Not long after, the guard returned, allowing Qing Ruo to enter the room.
" Older, sorry. Enough of this young master alone," said the servant stopping Long Chen who also wanted to enter the room.
" But master," Long Chen said hesitantly, as he looked at Qing Ruo who was shaking her head.
" Okay sir" he said, then withdrew from the place. Waiting for Qing Ruo outside the room.
After Long Chen kept his distance from the place. Qing Ruo then entered the room.
" It's very tight," her inner. While continuing to step her feet into the room.
Not long after, Qing Ruo finally arrived at the door of the other room, which was apparently guarded by two other warriors.
" Please sir" said the guard, opening the door of the room.
" Thank you," Qing Ruo said respectfully.
In the room. Qing Ruo was greeted by the beautiful girl in a green dress, staring at Qing Ruo's appearance stunned.
" Young master, I am Hong Dou, the manager of this auction house. Sorry for the inconvenience." Cupping his hands respectfully, while letting Qing Ruo sit down in a friendly manner.
" Thank you miss, I'm Na Ruo," Qing Ruo said calmly, occupying the available seats.
" Young master Na Ruo, the guard has conveyed the purpose of your arrival. Is it true that master will auction off the resources that master possesses ?"
" Right lady," while pointing at the five golden apples that had already evolved.
" This is an incredible resource. In today's auction list, we're also going to auction off golden apples, just that they haven't evolved yet." Staring at the golden apple that exuded a calming golden aura.
" Can I also auction other things?"
" Young master Na Ruo, whatever resources you have, we Ice Jade auction house, are ready to auction it, as long as it is not a low-level resource," Hong Dou said with a sweet smile.
" Alright, Qing Ruo replied, then took out five pieces of bodhi, leaving Hong Dou agape.
" This is the Bodhi fruit that has long been lost from the divine land" he said excitedly.
Qing Ruo who did not expect that bodhi fruit was a rare fruit was also slightly surprised.
" Mister Na Ruo, where did you get this fruit?" looking at Qing Ruo fixedly.
Qing Ruo shook her head.
" Miss' secret," Qing Ruo replied casually.
Hong Dou who had expected Qing Ruo's answer like that, nodded his head.
