"Wait, you said coma. How did he get injured? I an, isn't he at least Golden Core Realm? Was it the Black Church, and also how is your sect fine?" Wang Ming asked as one after another question popped into his head. He had already heard that all heads of the 8 Great Families are Golden Core Realm and was baffled about what could make them fall into a coma, and his only theory was the Black Church, who he knew was the only entity capable of such a feat.
"No one knows exactly what happened. He sohow managed to teleport himself to our main house and was heavily injured and fainted imdiately before anyone could ask what happened. I hope he wakes up, because that way the Zhang Clan wouldn't dare to do anything," Tang Nian said in a concerned voice.
"What about your sect, is it fine?" Wang Ming asked again, and this ti their expressions darkened.
"Those bastards almost wiped out the entire sect. There were several Golden Core Realm experts and even a Pure Core Realm expert, and they also killed many elders and disciples. If it was any other sect than us, they would have been wiped out," Tang Ning said in a voice full of anger and failed to see the weird look on Wang Ming's face.
'Heck, only one? Then why was our sect attacked by two Pure Core Realm cultivators? Are they overestimating our sect, or is there sothing else at play?' Wang Ming frowned. Sure, Yang Yin Sect is one of the top sects but still ranks below Heavenly Sword Sect, which is the top sect of the Black Bamboo Kingdom.
"Also, this is the reason we ca to Golden Leaf City, as the sect is undergoing repairs, and we will temporarily stay here," Tang Ning said.
"I see," Wang Ming nodded his head.
"Let's go. You said you wanted to buy Alchemic Fires and a cauldron, right? Let's go upstairs; there are higher-quality ones there," Tang Ning said, snapping Wang Ming out of his daze, as he had montarily forgotten the main reason he ca here.
"Excuse ."
Just as they were about to go upstairs, they saw a female clerk appear in front of them, her face flushing red as she kept sneaking glances at Wang Ming and Tang Nian. This caused Tang Ning to look displeased, and she asked in an irritated tone, "What do you need?"
"Ah, right, young miss, I overheard that you are looking for a cauldron and Alchemic fla, correct? You should head towards the Jiang Family estate," the female employee said, snapping out of her infatuation. She then turned her head toward Tang Ning and spoke in a serious voice.
"Jiang Family estate?" Tang Ning frowned.
"Yes, they are holding the 5-Star Auction," the female clerk said excitedly.
"!!!"
Tang Ning and Tang Nian's pupils constricted. Tang Ning rushed forward, grabbed the clerk by the shoulders, and asked in a solemn voice, "Are you sure?"
"Yes. The news has not been spread yet, as we only received the information not long ago. The Tang Family learned you were here, so they told
to inform you. It will be held in three days," the female clerk said hastily.
"Wang Ming, let's go," Tang Ning said.
Wang Ming was puzzled but still followed, and as they were walking, Tang Ning noticed his confusion and explained.
"Five Star Auction is the highest level of auction the Jiang Family hosts, and One Star is the lowest. The last one was 30 years ago, where they sold an Immortal Rank Technique and many other precious items. There is a chance you would find a very rare and powerful alchemic fla and a cauldron.
"Only the 8 Great Families can enter as they are directly invited, but the rest need to spend millions of gold coins just to get entry."
Tang Nian said in an excited voice while walking.
'Hmm, interesting. I might find sothing useful but…' Wang Ming was interested but then frowned, and his lips twitched when he used his spiritual energy to look inside his space ring.
'Tsk, I only brought a few spirit stones. If I knew, I would have brought more.' Wang Ming had only brought a quarter of his wealth outside and left the rest inside his abode in the sect.
"Hey," Wang Ming shouted, and the girls stopped and looked at him.
"Hmm, what happened?" Tang Nian asked.
"Can you ladies give
a few million gold coins for those pills? I didn't bring much," Wang Ming asked, scratching his head awkwardly. The girls looked at each other and shrugged.
"Sure, I an you gave us top-grade pills. A few million is still quite cheap," Tang Ning said as she brought out a storage pouch and tossed it to him.
"This pouch contains 20 million gold coins," Tang Ning said, and Wang Ming raised his eyebrow and checked, and it was true.
"Thank you," Wang Ming said.
"Not a big deal. By the way, I assu you plan to sell the other jar of pills at the auction, right?" Tang Ning asked.
"Yes," Wang Ming nodded. He had indeed planned to sell the pills after he bought the cauldron and alchemic fire at the Jiang Auction House, but now he planned to sell them at the 5-Star Auction.
"It would definitely still be ranked among the top items in the auction, but you should wear a mask or hide your identity. I know you don't care about trouble, but it's still better to avoid unnecessary trouble," Tang Ning advised.
"Noted," Wang Ming nodded. Though he was reckless and confident in his strength, he still pretended to avoid trouble.
"Alright, let's go. I will show you our main family residence. Even though outsiders are not allowed, you can tour the place if you are with us," Tang Ning said to Wang Ming with a smile.
"No, you go ahead. I have sothing to do. I will et you three days later," Wang Ming said as he vanished from his place.
'What does he need to do?' Tang Ning thought, frowning a bit.
