“You- how did you get this?” Third Mo felt that this was the second thing after learning that she was still alive that had given him such a huge shock.
“Some fortuitous encounters.” Sima You Yue said, “This isn’t the original copy. I made a copy after spending quite a few days on it. It’s yours.”
“Mine?” Third Mo was in disbelief. This was the ‘Spirit Seeking for the Root’. It was the book he had been searching for all this time, and it had actually appeared in front of him.
“Of course it’s yours. Why else would I let you see it.” Sima You Yue said. She saw Third Mo’s stunned appearance and found it rather comical. This was the first time in both lives that she had ever seen him this way!
However, now that the thing he had been searching for his whole life had suddenly appeared in front of him, even if it was him, he was still beside himself with excitement.
“You knew that I’ve been searching for this all this while, so I won’t stand on ceremony.” Third Mo took the stone rubbing and patted Sima You Yue’s shoulder excitedly.
“Why would you.” Sima You Yue said, “You’ve helped me out so much that I’ve earned ten million middle ranked stones in a day. Just take it as my gift of gratitude.”
Third Mo looked at Sima You Yue and was practically bursting with joy. She didn’t want to disturb him so she stood up and said, “I’ve given it to you, so I’ll be heading back first. I know you want to read it, but you have to remember the auction tomorrow.”
“Relax, I won’t miss it. Just call me before you head out.” Third Mo said.
“Okay.”
The moment Sima You Yue left, Third Mo opened it and started to study it. On the second day when they called him out to participate in the auction, he was still intoxicated with it.
The group of them headed to the Xuan Yuan pavilion, and found that many people were also headed in the same direction. It seemed that they were here to participate in the auction as well.
“You Yue!” Halfway there, Sima You Yue heard someone call her name. She turned around and saw that Chou Xiao Tian was currently greeting her from far away. He had a group of people with him as well, but they didn’t seem like they were from the Innumerable Green Palace. They should be masters from the Central Province.
Chou Xiao Tian said a few things to the person beside him, then squeezed through the crowd and came in front of Sima You Yue, saying, “I just knew you would come to the auction, and here I see you.”
“There’s no way we would miss such an exciting event.” Sima You Yue said.
“Have you settled Bei Gong’s issue?” Chou Xiao Tian asked while looking at Bei Gong Tang.
“It’s been done.” Bei Gong Tang nodded at him.
“Senior, Master wants you to head over quickly.” A lady walked over and looked arrogantly at Sima You Yue and the others while saying to Chou Xiao Tian.
Chou Xiao Tian smiled at Sima You Yue and the other, saying, “I’ll look for you again once the auction is over. Where are you guys staying at?”
“Memory Restaurant.”
Alright, I’ll look for you later on. I’ll head on first, then.” Chou Xiao Tian cupped his fist as he spoke, then left with the lady.
“Tch, what is she posing for.” Fatty Qu rolled his eyes at Chou Xiao Tian’s junior sister. He was extremely put off.
“Enough, she has nothing to do with us. Let’s head on.” Wei Zi Qi said, “There are too many people here.”
“Many of these people don’t have the right to enter the auction, but they want to stay outside to listen for any news.” Wu Lingyu said.
“Thinking of smelling the fragrance even if they can’t taste the meat?” Ouyang Fei joked.
“There are many powers in the outer regions. Adding on to that a few from the inner region, there are many participants.” Sima You Yue could feel a headache coming on when she saw the sea of people.
Since there were so many people, that meant there were many who would participate in the bid. The bid would subsequently increase along with it.
“Actually, there aren’t as many people as you think.” Wu Lingyu saw her furrowed eyebrows and said, “Those who are able to come are the first and second ranked powers in the outer regions. Not everyone has come.”
“Really?”
“After all, this is an auction in the outer regions. There aren’t that many from the inner regions. The other provinces are rather far, so they may not come if they have decided that nothing has interested them.” Qin Mo explained, “That’s why there aren’t that many. There are also many items of the same type, so it gives a bit of breathing space.”
“I don’t care about the others, I just hope nobody fights with me for the items that I want.” Sima You Yue said.
The items she had chosen this time were too hard to obtain. If she was really unable to get them, she wouldn’t even mind stealing them from the victor.
However, the thing she worried the most about was the bartering for the two items. If she was unable to produce something that the other party was satisfied with, it would be troublesome.
“Let’s talk again once we’re inside.” Third Mo said.
He had things he wanted to bid for in this auction as well. However, after receiving the rubbing stone from Sima You Yue, he had lost some of his excitement for that mine.
They came to the entrance of the Xuan Yuan Pavilion and happened to see Qing Yuan from the Innumerable Green Palace leading people inside. The servant girl at the entrance took them inside after seeing the?invitation.
“We’re already considered to be pretty early, but there are already so many people inside. I wonder how long the queue is.” Fatty Qu said when he saw the long waving queue.
“We don’t have to queue.” Sima You Yue said, “Come with me.”
She brought them to another route, and there really were no one here.
“Greetings, please take out your invitation.” The servant girl by the entrance said with a smile.
She took out the invitation card that Jun Lan had given her. It was a different colour from the one others had.
The servant girl took the invitation card and took a look at it. Then, she returned it with both hands, saying, “This is our VIP, you may enter through our VIP entrance. One of our people will lead you to your private room.”
“Thank you.” Sima You Yue took the invitation back and another servant girl walked over. She took them into the auction area and went to a private room on the third floor.
The pavilion was big enough for the ten to twenty of them to remain inside without feeling crowded at all.
“If you should require anything, kindly pull the rope.” That servant girl left after speaking.
The room was really big. There were three large round tables, but it didn’t feel cramped at all. It was probably prepared for occasions such as these, where there were many people.
What she didn’t know was that Jun Lan has specially ordered for them to prepare it for them. The other rooms were big as well,?but they didn’t have that many tables and chairs. It was because Jun Lan knew that she had many with her when she came, so she specially arranged for the room to be as such.
The glass here was the same as the ones in the Yi Lin Continent. They could see the outside clearly, but the outside could not see into the rooms. They sat inside the house, and could see everything happening outside.
The entire auction could fit a few tens of thousands of people. Just the hall below could contain three to four thousand, so who knew how many levels of private rooms this place had.
Sima You Yue’s private room wasn’t anything special. It was something she had specially requested because she didn’t want to stand out too much.
Time passed according to schedule, and those people entered the auction successively, adding to the liveliness of it all. Sima You Yue took a look and saw that the private rooms on the second, third and fourth level were all lit up.
