"Two distinguished guests, please wait for a moment. My sect leader would like to meet you two."
The appraiser explained why he wanted to retain Xiao Xue and Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan was very worried that Fan Ling had already left the city. If he wasted time here, he would not be able to catch up with Fan Ling. By then, he would really miss the traces of the third strange fire, the Pure Lotus Demon Fire.
Xiao Yan waved his hand and said, "I still have important things to do and I need to leave the city urgently. I hope you'll forgive me."
The appraiser didn't feel angry after hearing Xiao Yan's words, but smiled.
"Then, distinguished guests, don't worry. It's getting late today. As the organizer of this auction, I, the Eight Gates, have specially closed the city gates to ensure everyone's safety. No one can leave the city until tomorrow."
After listening to the appraiser's explanation, Xiao Xue stood up from the chair, took Xiao Yan's arm and said with a smile.
"Brother, you can't get out anyway. You can only do things tomorrow. The master of the eight gates is one of the top ten people on the black list. Not everyone can see cats and dogs. Since the master of the gate
If you are willing to invite someone, why should we refuse?"
The appraiser liked Xiao Xue's attitude very much. Xiao Yan agreed to meet with the eight sect masters after hearing the appraiser's reluctance to say it again, and Xiao Xue's vigorous wink as a sign.
"good!"
The appraiser clapped his hands and burst into laughter: "Quick, I like such cheerful people, please come with me."
The appraiser gently twisted the copper ring on the lion's head behind him, and a secret door suddenly appeared in front of the two of them.
Xiao Yan was very embarrassed. His every move was being monitored by the eight doors, and he suddenly felt very unhappy.
However, it is even scarier to think about it, if the entire auction house is designed like this.
Xiao Xue gently pulled Xiao Yan's arm, signaling Xiao Yan not to be in a daze.
The brother and sister followed the appraiser one after another. Xiao Yan was always vigilant to protect Xiao Xue behind him.
The two walked through a hundred-meter-long passage and came to a wide and bright room, with three crystal lamps on the top shining purple light from the roof.
The appraiser bowed respectfully: "Master, two distinguished guests are here."
A middle-aged man with a slight beard on his chin, a very clean face, and a very capable looking man dressed in black slowly walked out of the darkness of the room.
The appraiser introduced Xiao Xue and Xiao Yan at the same time: "You two, this is the sect master of our eight sects."
Yuan Yi came over with a smile on his face for some unknown purpose, but the pressure from his body was to test the strength of Xiao Xue and Xiao Yan.
"I am Yuan Yi from the Eight Gates."
Xiao Xue was surprised by Yuan Yi's simple introduction.
Xiao Xue smiled slightly: "My name is Yao Xue."
Xiao Yan easily resisted the pressure brought by Yuan Yi and answered easily: "My name is Yao Yan."
"Oh, your names sound like they are brothers and sisters? I wonder if I am right?"
Yuan Yi had other thoughts in his heart. He did not expect that he could have such strength at such a young age. I am afraid that under such pressure, even a strong man at the fighting spirit level would break out in sweat.
As a result, the two people in front of me could face each other so calmly and calmly. It was truly a hero born from a young age.
Although they were wearing masks, they only covered part of their faces. From a partial look, it could be seen that the two of them were not very old.
It's just that I wouldn't think of it as a teenage girl.
"Master Yuan really has a good eye. We are indeed brothers and sisters."
Xiao Xue answered Yuan Yi's question easily, and Yuan Yi had already withdrawn his previous pressure.
Yuan Yi took the lead and sat down, extending his hand to signal Xiao Xue, and Xiao Yan also sat down together.
Xiao Xue and Xiao Yan returned the courtesy and then sat on the chairs.
Xiao Xue was the first to speak: "I wonder if Clan Master Yuan has any reason to invite us brothers and sisters in?"
Yuan Yi picked up the teacup and gently opened the lid and blew the tea leaves floating in the teacup.
Taking a sip of tea, Yuan Yi's mouth twitched as he listened to Xiao Xue's words.
Xiao Xue is like a girl who has not experienced much in the world, giving people a feeling that she is easy to win.
"Master Yuan, you're welcome, I just don't want to waste time."
Yuan Yi clapped his hands and applauded directly: "Well said, what Miss Yao Xue said is really good, so Yuan won't mince words anymore."
Xiao Xueyu raised her arm gently: "Master Yuan, please speak."
Yuan Yi stood up, walked in the hall, turned back and looked at the two brothers and sisters and said: "To be honest, the appearance of two such alchemists in Black Seal City surprised Yuan, and he was also very happy."
"Oh, I wonder where Master Yuan's happiness comes from?"
"You two are able to auction elixirs at the auction hosted by Eight Gates. I think you don't have your own affiliations yet. Isn't this a great gift from God to Yuan?"
Xiao Yan was about to speak, but Xiao Xue held him down with his hand. Xiao Yan didn't quite understand why Xiao Xue stopped him from speaking.
"Does Master Yuan think too highly of us brothers and sisters?"
Xiao Xue shook her head to signal Xiao Yan not to speak, because as Xiao Yan's sister, Xiao Xue certainly understood what Xiao Yan wanted to say.
This is the Black Corner Territory and the Black Seal City, and Yao Lao is restricted. If Erha is directly allowed to take action, although he can win, if there is such a monster in such a big city, wouldn't it bring him endless troubles.
So now we can only see what Yuan Yi wants, and finally find a suitable reason to refuse temporarily.
"This is not a high opinion. Your brother, Mr. Yao Yan, has refined the three-line green spirit elixir. That is an elixir that ordinary fourth-grade alchemists would be stressed about."
Obviously, Yuan Yi first praised Xiao Yan, and then of course he praised Xiao Xue.
"And Miss Yaoxue, you are even more complicated. I have never heard of the elixirs you have refined. There are such magical elixirs in this world. I am afraid that only Miss Yaoxue has such means in this world."
Xiao Xue denied Yuan Yi's words.
"Master Yuan, it's not just me who knows how to do it, but also my teacher."
Xiao Xue appropriately moved out his teacher, which was also a way to escape.
As if he had gotten the information he wanted, Yuan Yi turned around and looked at Xiao Xue and asked in surprise.
"Miss Yaoxue's teacher?"
"Yes, otherwise how would I have such ability? Master Yuan thinks too highly of me."
"I wonder what level of alchemist Miss Yaoxue's teacher is?"
Xiao Xue was ready to satisfy Yuan Yi's curiosity.
Xiao Xue stood up and rolled her eyes: "To be honest, the teacher originally ordered not to reveal his rank, but the leader Yuan is so enthusiastic, so the little girl made an exception."
Yuan Yi pricked up his ears and listened carefully to Xiao Xue's speech.
"My teacher was an eighth-grade alchemist twenty years ago."
