My Cultivation Starting from Archery Chapter 939 - 280: Raid and Confiscation

Qingfeng Building is right next to the auction venue.

After the auction, almost all the cultivators in the villa gradually made their way to Qingfeng Building, evidently having participated in the bidding and purchased items.

Several female cultivators stood in the hall, inviting the cultivators to take their seats one by one and introducing the rules.

Each person had a random number, and when their number was called, they would ascend the building to pay spirit stones and collect their purchased items, then depart invisibly.

The entire process ensures no outsiders know what you’ve purchased.

"Number Five."

Chen Sansi looked at the wooden token in his hand; the number wasn’t too far back, so there was no need to rush.

The transactions proceeded quickly, and in just the ti it takes to drink two cups of tea, his number was called.

"Please, Number Five, co upstairs for the transaction."

"..."

Chen Sansi led Dongfang Jingxing up the stairs, one behind the other.

The confidentiality asures were mainly for the cultivators; if they trusted each other, naturally they could bring a companion.

The two female cultivators leading the way stopped and gently pushed open the room door.

Inside the private room.

Young City Lord Jiang Li sat in a deer antler chair, wearing a purple robe, Zhangsun Miao stood next to him, followed by a row of guards from the City Lord Mansion.

He noticed that the two people who entered were sowhat unfamiliar, so he discreetly sent a voice transmission asking, "Zhang Hu, aren’t these people from Beiyang Path?"

"Correct."

The cultivator surnad Zhang explained.

This auction also had a few loose cultivators from outside Beiyang Path participating, not many, about five or six.

"Young City Lord, rest assured, this person not only bought a large number of demon sect magic artifacts but also many furnace tripods. Throughout the entire auction, his transaction amount was among the top."

"..."

Jiang Li didn’t think much of it; he just smiled and greeted, "Daoist Lin Fan, nice to et you."

"The Young City Lord is too kind."

Chen Sansi stated directly, "Could I inspect the items I previously purchased?"

"Of course, of course."

Jiang Li smiled affably and took out several storage bags from his sleeve, then retrieved the items purchased by the other party according to the numbers.

Both demon sect and righteous path items hovered in midair, nurous and expensive, constituting a large transaction.

He said warmly, "Daoist Lin Fan, rest assured, though the auction was temporarily organized, my Jiang family is, after all, the master of Ronghua City, ruling a city with credibility."

"I’ve heard you’re a loose cultivator from Canghai Path, any interest in staying in our Ronghua City as a tributor? Not to ntion, you’d surely have plenty of furnace tripods, and with your qualification, you could beco a great cultivator in the later Foundation Establishnt stage over ti."

In Beiyang Path, a later Foundation Establishnt stage cultivator is already a dominant force.

Chen Sansi ignored the latter part of the sentence and rely skimd through the items: "Thanks for Young Master Jiang’s kindness, but I’m just passing through here to visit my juniors, and I must move on, I’m afraid I cannot stay long."

"Alright then."

Jiang Li was slightly disappointed, waved his folding fan, and put all the items back into the storage bag: "The items you bid for total eighty thousand two hundred and thirty low-grade spirit stones, but we’ll only charge you eighty thousand, just to make a friend."

"Eighty thousand, that’s not a small number at all."

Chen Sansi, short on funds, had only a few hundred spirit stones on hand.

He unabashedly took a seat at the head, observing with [See Pill and Recognize the Recipe] that the tea was harmless, and then had Little Bamboo pour him so tea.

"..."

Jiang Li, Zhangsun Miao, and the guards in the private room were sowhat unclear about what the other party ant.

"Eighty thousand spirit stones is indeed a hefty sum."

Only those backed by a force or rogue cultivators who’ve saved for years could gather such a large amount of spirit stones.

This attempt to draw in the other party was why Jiang Li tried, sitting opposite: "But these items on the outside market would fetch a different price.

"Moreover, let remind you, the auction rules are that once the hamr falls, it’s final; even if you change your mind, you cannot renege, or else you’ll be breaking the rules."

Chen Sansi put down the tea cup: "How about we make a deal?"

"Oh?"

Jiang Li unfolded his folding fan, smiling: "Do tell?"

"Yes."

Chen Sansi looked at the beam, enurating smoothly: "Young City Lord of the Jiang family, auctioning demon sect magic artifacts, elixir pills, spreading cultivation techniques, selling boys and girls as furnace tripods for cultivators, suspected of collusion with demon sects; any of these, if exposed alone, would be intolerable to the world, right?"

These words plunged the room into dead silence.

The already quiet private room beca so silent that even breathing seed to vanish.

The faces of the Ronghua City people changed drastically.

"Interesting."

A mont later, Jiang Li sneered: "I understand, Daoist is threatening ?"

"How amusing."

Zhangsun Miao, who had been silent, stood up, mocking: "What’s the point of saying these words?"

"Simple."

Chen Sansi said indifferently: "The Jiang family has violated the laws, which is already a capital offense, but I can give you an opportunity; from now on, change your ways, submit to , including the properties of Ronghua City and the Jiang family, you must actively hand them over."

"Do this, and those of your Jiang family not involved in this will be dealt with leniently."

"The laws?"

Jiang Li scrutinized the other party, his expression shifting from disdain to seriousness; he instinctively stood up and stepped back, questioning: "Heavenly Water laws? Are you people from an Upper Sect?!"

"No."

Dongfang Jingxing took over, a sharp malice edged in his voice: "It’s the Great Han laws, the Heavenly Court regulations!"

"Great Han?"

Jiang Li searched his mind for this term, but before he could find a corresponding mory, he saw a river suddenly appear in the void, its blue waters winding forward, instantly enveloping his entire vision.
