The God of Sky & Earth-Chapter 741: The Invitation From Lingbao Pavilion
Chapter 741: The Invitation From Lingbao Pavilion
"Does Lingbao Pavilion have a great history?"
Su Yi asked, still wondering if this Lingbao Pavilion could be the same as the Lingbao Pavilion in the distant post city within the Forest of Demons. However, upon careful thought, it seemed unlikely to be the same.
"This Lingbao Pavilion is truly exceptional. It has a mysterious origin and its strength surpasses your imagination. It encompasses all cultivation resources and is said to have branches throughout the entire six lands, three continents, and one ocean. There are rumors that no one dares to touch any shop affiliated with the Lingbao Pavilion. It holds the same level of prestige as the Central Region itself. Even the five sects and three schools wouldn't dare to challenge the Lingbao Pavilion easily, let alone Sacred Mountain. They would have to show some respect," said Xi Wuqing.
"So strong, eh?"
Su Yi's eyes widened in amazement. Branches of the Spirit Treasure Pavilion existed in the six lands, three continents, and one ocean. This level of power was truly astonishing. It even commanded respect from Sacred Mountain. This alone proved the immense strength and foundation of the Spirit Treasure Pavilion. To think that a trading company could be this formidable left Su Yi utterly astonished.
"This is merely the auction venue of the Lingbao Pavilion. Throughout the Central Region, there are several branches of the Lingbao Pavilion. If the item you are seeking cannot be found within the walls of the Lingbao Pavilion, it is unlikely to be found in any other trading company," said Xi Wuqing.
"This Lingbao Pavilion, it really looks impressive!"
Su Yi murmured softly, speculating in his heart that the Lingbao Pavilion within the Forest of Demons might just be a case of sharing the same name. How could a distant outpost within the Forest of Demons be connected to a renowned Lingbao Pavilion like this one?
"I'm truly sorry, but this auction is extremely crowded. From now on, only those with an invitation letter and membership status with the Lingbao Pavilion are allowed to enter. Please understand and bear with us, everyone."
In front of the bustling crowd, a sound could be heard coming from the imposing entrance of the Lingbao Pavilion. There were many busy figures, most likely disciples of the Lingbao Pavilion, busy organizing the crowd to enter the auction.
"Oh dear, there are too many people. Without a membership to the Lingbao Pavilion and an invitation letter, it seems unlikely that we can go in!"
"Sadly, it is said that there will be valuable treasures and many other great things to be auctioned in this auction!"
From all around, there were many voices expressing regret, heads hanging low and spirits dampened. They knew they couldn't attend this level of auction.
Some people felt regretful and downcast, but strangely, there was not a single person causing any trouble.
Su Yi's spiritual power was slightly released, and it was not difficult to sense that amidst the bustling crowd, there were many concealed auras. Many powerful individuals were hiding among them, all of them having come for this auction.
"There were so many, many people."
Su Xiaoshuai's little head popped out, curiously surveying his surroundings. But soon, Su Yi heartlessly tucked him into his chest and warned the little guy that if he dared to come out again, he would be locked inside a space. Hearing this, Su Xiaoshuai obediently settled down, though he kept muttering about being deprived of his rights.
"You are just a bird, where could you have human rights? At most, you have bird rights," Su Yi whispered.
"I am not a bird, I am..." Su Xiaoshuai protested, poking his head out.
"Alright, if you behave yourself, I promise I'll get you something nice to eat later," Su Yi interrupted Su Xiaoshuai.
Some people entered the auction at Lingbao Pavilion, but others sadly walked away. Without being a member of Lingbao Pavilion or having an invitation, no one could enter.
Many of the people who were originally in line also left on their own, which immediately made the queue much emptier.
Suddenly, Su Yi, in his heightened spiritual awareness, felt a chilling presence engulfing him from behind.
Following the chilling gaze from behind, Su Yi turned around and immediately saw the owner of that icy look. He was dressed in robes, appearing to be in his twenties, with a coldness in his eyes that revealed ill intentions. It was none other than Liu Xiaohu, a Soul Tamer at the Emperor Grade level from the Tianxuan Sect, at the initial stage of the third rank.
Next to Liu Xiaohu, Su Yi's gaze followed and he also noticed Elder Jian Wannian and a few disciples who were present during the inspection at the Yutian Palace. Additionally, there were several other powerful individuals, making a group of about twenty people. However, Gong Qianxing was not among them.
Jian Wannian also caught sight of Su Yi and Xi Wuqing, his gaze filled with complex emotions. He lowered his head and whispered something to the strong individuals beside him. Their eyes focused on Su Yi and Xi Wuqing, clearly discussing something about them.
Meanwhile, Liu Xiaohu's gaze became even more complicated. Initially, he didn't pay much attention to Su Yi, considering himself superior while inspecting the Emperor Grade soul quality. Little did he know that later even Gong Qianxing and Li Qingwei's soul qualities would be suppressed. Furthermore, it was rumored that Yi Su had severely wounded Ouyang Jinwei from the Sacred Mountain, earning a formidable reputation that spread throughout the entire Central Region.
The longer Liu Xiaohu stared at Su Yi, the uglier his expression became. From envy grew hatred, and his gaze revealed a chilling coldness.
Su Yi glanced back for a moment, but didn't pay any attention. As long as this Liu Xiaohu didn't provoke him, it was all good. He had never considered him as a worthy opponent.
In front of them, the line of people grew smaller and smaller. Before long, it was Su Yi and Xi Wuqing's turn.
"Please show the invitation letter or the membership card of the Lingbao Pavilion!"
A disciple from the Lingbao Pavilion asked. He had a lean figure and confident eyes. Despite being in his early forties, he had obviously witnessed grand events and had a clear and clever gaze.
Su Yi looked at the disciples from the Lingbao Pavilion in front of him. The youngest one appeared to be in his twenties, while the oldest one looked to be in his forties. They all emitted a formidable aura. The thin disciple who led the group gave Su Yi an unsettling feeling in his heart.
"Hmm."
Xi Wuqing nodded and took out a delicate golden invitation card, about the size of a palm. It was adorned with exquisite patterns and three large characters - "Lingbao Pavilion".
"Please."
Xi Wuqing, a disciple of Lingbao Pavilion, nodded with a smile as he picked up the invitation card. Immediately, another disciple of Lingbao Pavilion behind him handed him a jade plaque politely. He said, "Esteemed guest, please enter and take a seat according to the designated location on the card. If you have any questions, there will be disciples of Lingbao Pavilion inside to assist you."
Xi Wuqing nodded and accepted the jade plaque. He turned around and gave a proud smile to Su Yi. He had put in some effort to obtain this invitation card. The people who could enter the auction at Lingbao Pavilion were definitely not ordinary.
Su Yi smiled helplessly and could only follow Xi Wuqing into the auction at Lingbao Pavilion. This kind of high-level auction would also broaden his horizons.
"Sorry, the invitation card can only admit one person. I wonder if this young friend has an invitation card?" At this moment, the thin disciple of Lingbao Pavilion, with a smile on his face, stopped Su Yi.
"No," Su Yi shook his head.
Xi Wuqing also paused for a moment, then asked the disciple of Lingbao Pavilion, "Is it not allowed to bring one person with the invitation card?"
"I'm sorry, perhaps it would be possible on an ordinary day, but today's auction has too many people. There are rules in place, stating that one invitation card can only admit one person. I apologize for any inconvenience caused." The thin disciple of Lingbao Pavilion said politely.
