Just as Zhao Li and the other two were walking back, Luo Chen, who had been practicing in the inn room all night, opened the door with a smile on his face.
"Mr. Luo, morning!"
Zheng Xiaoliu, who was waiting at the door, greeted Luo Chen, but looked at Luo Chen doubtfully.
For some reason, after one night, Zheng Xiaoliu found that Luo Chen felt more otherworldly than before, and his aura was more restrained.
"morning!"
Luo Chen smiled and didn't care about Zheng Xiaoliu's eyes. After a night of practice, he had successfully broken through to the second-rate peak realm. However, in order to avoid shocking the world, he used the Qi Hiding Technique to hide his cultivation. On the surface, he only had
The second-rate late stage realm.
After a few glances, Zheng Xiaoliu didn't see the reason, so he stopped paying attention and said:
"Master Luo! The auction is about to begin, let's go there!"
"Well! Let's go!"
Luo Chen smiled and nodded, walked out of the room, closed the door, and went downstairs with Zheng Xiaoliu.
Just as they were about to leave the inn, the two of them saw a maid in a green skirt outside the door, followed by two soldiers in dark gold armor, walking into the inn.
"Eh? Isn't this the maid who was with Princess Mingyue yesterday?"
Zheng Xiaoliu looked at the maid in green and said doubtfully.
"That's right! It's my slave!"
The maid in green smiled and nodded, then saluted Luo Chen: "I have met Mr. Luo!"
"Meet the girl!"
Luo Chen cupped his hands and then asked politely: "Girl, what's wrong with you here?"
"No!"
The maid in green shook her head, took a deep look at Luo Chen, and said with a smile: "I came here specifically to see Mr. Luo!"
"Find me?"
Luo Chen frowned and asked in confusion: "I wonder what the girl is looking for?"
"My slave, come and give this to Mr. Luo!"
The maid smiled, took out a gilt invitation from her sleeve and handed it to Luo Chen.
"This is?"
Luo Chen frowned, took the invitation in confusion, opened it and read it.
"whee!"
The maid smiled slightly and said: "Tomorrow is the princess's birthday. The princess will hold a birthday banquet in Mingyue Palace, and Mr. Luo is specially invited to attend."
"This...invite me?"
After closing the invitation, a strange look suddenly appeared on Luo Chen's face. He didn't understand why Princess Mingyue would invite him, a little-known country boy, to celebrate her birthday.
"Yes!"
The maid nodded, as if she saw Luo Chen's doubts, and explained: "The princess likes to make friends with young talents. At this Tianbao Pavilion auction, talented disciples from various schools gathered in Zhongdu. The princess took the opportunity of her birthday to invite
Genius disciples from various schools gather together."
"I see!"
Luo Chen suddenly understood, then nodded and said with a smile: "Please tell the princess, I will be there on time tomorrow!"
"In that case, I'll be waiting for Mr. Luo to arrive tomorrow! Take your leave, my servant!"
After the maid finished speaking, she bowed to Luo Chen again, then turned and left.
"Tsk tsk!"
Watching the maid leave, Zheng Xiaoliu turned back to look at the invitation in Luo Chen's hand, and said with a playful smile: "Master Luo, do you think it was your poem yesterday that moved Princess Mingyue?
Does she like you? Otherwise, why would she invite you to the birthday party? "
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Luo Chen glared at Zheng Xiaoliu and said, "Didn't you listen to what the maid said? The invitations are all disciples from various families!"
With that said, Luo Chen put the invitation in his arms and walked out of the inn: "Let's go quickly! Otherwise, the auction price will be late."
"hey-hey!"
Zheng Xiaoliu laughed twice strangely, raised his feet and followed him out.
The headquarters of Tianbao Pavilion is located in the most prosperous area of Zhongdu East City. It is a three-story loft covering an area of nearly two acres.
As early as the day he first arrived in Zhongdu, Luo Chen went to Tianbao Pavilion under the guidance of Zheng Xiaoliu. Although he did not enter the store, he knew its location.
The inn where Luo Chen and two people stayed was near Tianbao Pavilion. After leaving the inn, the two of them turned a corner and arrived in front of Tianbao Pavilion.
"Ha! There are quite a lot of people here!"
Zheng Xiaoliu looked surprised as he looked at the steady stream of customers entering the store in front of Tianbao Pavilion.
"Um!"
Luo Chen nodded and looked at the crowd entering the store. He found that most of these people were martial arts warriors carrying weapons, and there were also some wealthy people wearing brocade robes. However, these wealthy people also had great cultivation.
body.
"Let's go in too!"
After watching for a while, Luo Chen also walked towards the store.
"Um!"
Zheng Xiaoliu followed closely behind.
Following the crowd into Tianbao Pavilion, Luo Chen and the others were not stopped and asked to deposit their weapons like they were in other Tianbao Pavilions.
Luo Chen was looking around doubtfully. Zheng Xiaoliu seemed to see what Luo Chen was thinking and said with a smile:
"Haha! This Tianbao Pavilion headquarters is different from other places. There are top-notch experts here, and anyone who dares to cause trouble will be killed directly. So basically no one dares to cause trouble here, and Tianbao Pavilion allows people to carry weapons."
"I see!"
Luo Chen suddenly realized, and then asked curiously: "Do you know who opened this Tianbao Pavilion?"
"have no idea!"
Zheng Xiaoliu shook his head and frowned: "Anyway, Tianbao Pavilion has a very strong background. All the powerful people in the court dare not provoke it, and the major martial arts sects will not cause trouble here!"
"Is it so powerful..."
When Luo Chen heard this, he held his chin with one hand and looked at Tianbao Pavilion thoughtfully.
"Are you two here to attend the auction?"
Just when Luo Chen was looking at Tianbao Pavilion, a waiter came over. Seeing Luo Chen's second-rate late stage state, the waiter's eyes were surprised and he smiled at Luo Chen with great respect.
"good!"
Luo Chen nodded.
"The two of you, please go to the third floor. The auction will start soon."
The waiter respectfully faced the stairs and made an inviting gesture.
"OK!"
Luo Chen and the two immediately walked towards the stairs.
The first and second floors of Tianbao Pavilion are where items are sold, while the third floor is a venue dedicated to auctions.
Going up to the third floor, there is a large wooden door, with two black-clothed warriors at the top of the third-rate realm standing guard on both sides of the door.
After entering the door, Luo Chen saw a large space with hundreds of chairs arranged in a stepped manner. At the front was a small stage with only this long table placed on it.
At this time, the hundreds of chairs were basically full, with only a few empty seats in the last two rows.
"Be good! There are so many people!"
Zheng Xiaoliu looked at the rows of heads at the venue and murmured: "Fortunately, I arrived in time, otherwise there would be no place to sit. Mr. Luo, let's find a place to sit down quickly!"
"Um!"
Immediately, the two found two seats in the last row and sat down.
"Hey! I met an acquaintance, Mr. Luo, look at that!"
As soon as he sat down, Zheng Xiaoliu pointed to the seat on the right side of the first row with a smile.
