Chapter 724: Their Young Master


"Really? Then do you know where they are?" Chu Liuxiang asked.


"Not exactly. I know they"re nearby, but I don"t know where they are. Hold on, let me ask them."


"Feng Feng? Xiao Hua? Are you two also at the Flood Dragon"s scale auction?" Yuan asked them through their connection.


"Y-Young Master? Are you also at the auction?" Feng Yuxiang"s surprised voice resounded, almost as though she wasn"t aware until he spoke to her.


"Yes, I decided to partic.i.p.ate in the auction when I heard about it, but alas, I had no chance against these powerful families and sects. And before you tell me that I wasn"t supposed to leave the hotel, I left a note behind before we left." Yuan said.


"Don"t worry, I am not mad at you for leaving." Feng Yuxiang chuckled.


"Anyways, now that the auction has ended, let"s meet up."


"W-Wait a minute, Young Master. I still have a few treasures to sell, so we cannot meet up just yet. If you want, you can return to the hotel first…" Feng Yuxiang quickly made up an excuse so that she wouldn"t expose herself for selling the Flood Dragon"s scale.


"Is that so? Do you know how long it will take? If it"s not too long, we can wait for you in our hotel at Bright Night City." Yuan then said.


"It shouldn"t take too long. We should be finished by the end of today or tomorrow."


"I understand. Then we"ll wait for you at Bright Night City." Yuan proceeded to give her the name of their hotel.


"They"re almost finished selling the treasures, so we"re going to wait for them in our hotel at Bright Night City." Yuan explained the situation to Chu Liuxiang and Lan Yingying.


"Thank you all for coming to our action today! If you have any questions, you may visit the House of Riches located in Bright Night City at any time!" Gu Xiulan said to everyone there before leaving the stage.


Many people at the auction wanted to ask about the owner of the Flood Dragon"s scale, but they figured that if this person wanted their ident.i.ty to be known, Gu Xiulan would"ve already mentioned it.


The fact that they were not mentioned must either mean Gu Xiulan doesn"t know, or the seller doesn"t want their ident.i.ty to be known. It was that simple.


After leaving the Royal Hall, Yuan"s group returned to Bright Night City while Feng Yuxiang and Xiao Hua waited to collect their money.


As for Senior Nie, he went to a private room with Gu Xiulan, where he paid her the 20 million spirit stones for the Flood Dragon"s scale.


"I know you probably don"t want to tell me their ident.i.ty, but I still wish to ask." Senior Nie asked Gu Xiulan as he handed her the spirit stones.


Gu Xiulan shook her head with a bittersweet smile, "It"s not that I don"t want to tell you. I simply don"t know their ident.i.ty."


"That"s unfortunate." Senior Nie said.


However, just as Gu Xiulan handed Senior Nie the Flood Dragon"s scale, the door to the VIP room opened, and Feng Yuxiang and Xiao Hua casually walked inside the room.


"Y-You are…" Senior Nie"s eyes widened with surprise when he saw Xiao Hua and recognized her.


"Hey, do you have the money yet? I don"t like the feeling of making the Young Master wait. And the more I think about it, the more anxious I get." Feng Yuxiang ignored Senior Nie and directly asked for the money.


Gu Xiulan was speechless. She thought they wanted to remain anonymous, so what are they doing here?


"You were in the Lower Heavens at the Mystic Realm! What are you doing here?" Senior Nie eventually snapped out of his shock and asked Xiao Hua.


"That"s none of your business." Xiao Hua nonchalantly responded.


"Uhh… Here"s the spirit stones for the other treasures you asked us to sell. The commission fee has already been deducted. As for the 20 million spirit stones, give me a moment to separate them."


Gu Xiulan quickly subtracted 200,000 spirit stones from the 20 million as part of their 1 percent commission fee. After that, she handed the rest to Feng Yuxiang.


"19,861,000 spirit stones, huh? Not bad." Feng Yuxiang said after a quick count using her divine sense.


She then retrieved another spatial ring that was empty before putting in 120,000 spirit stones from the 19 million.


Yuan"s treasure had sold for a little over 60,000 spirit stones, but Feng Yuxiang decided to add a tiny percentage of her own earnings into it to help him.


Of course, this "tiny amount" was already enough to double his earnings, but Yuan won"t know that unless she tells him.


"Thanks for the work." Feng Yuxiang said to Gu Xiulan as she turned around and began walking for the exit.


"P-Please wait a moment!" Gu Xiulan suddenly stopped them.


However, she didn"t know exactly why she stopped them, and she did it mostly subconsciously.


"Is there something else?" Feng Yuxiang asked her.


"Uhhh… N-No. Sorry." Gu Xiulan gave up trying to learn more about them.


In fact, Senior Nie appears to recognize one of them, so she could simply ask him later.


Feng Yuxiang and Xiao Hua left the scene shortly after.


"They"re the owners of the Flood Dragon"s scale…?  Unbelievable…" Senior Nie mumbled in a dazed voice after they left.


"You know them?" Gu Xiulan asked him.


"Well… I wouldn"t say that I "know" them, but I have met them before… In the Lower Heavens." He said.


"What?! The Lower Heavens?!"


Senior Nie nodded, and he proceeded to recall their brief encounter at the Mystic Realm to Gu Xiulan.


"That little girl was a Spirit King?!" Gu Xiulan"s jaw dropped after learning this information.


After a moment of silence, she asked, "Wait. Did you also see their "Young Master" by any chance?"


"Young Master? Oh, you must mean that genius who conquered the Mystic Realm. If I recall correctly, his name was "Yuan"."


Gu Xiulan"s eyes widened with shock when she heard this familiar name.


"Wait a second… Did you just say… Yuan?" She asked for confirmation.


"Yes. Do you know him?" Senior Nie nodded.
