Chapter 2555 – Needs To Be Taught A Lesson
A long while later, the iron plate finally descended. However, Luo Lao'er's voidforce energy was also almost completely depleted. Despite spending half a month absorbing voidforce energy, he had barely moved the iron plate. It was too difficult. It’s too difficult, Brother-in-law.
Luo Lao'er retracted his thread of voidforce energy before flopping onto the ground, panting heavily. Sweat plastered his clothes to his body.
His communication crystal trembled, and his eyes went wide as soon as he glanced at it. He immediately answered the call. "You actually dare to call me?"
A deep voice answered, "There was an accident last time. It won’t happen this time."
Luo Lao'er sneered. "So many people were caught after they showed up for that last secret auction. Do you know how long it took for the hunt for me to finally die down? Two months! If not for Xuan Qi backing me, they’d still be after me."
"You will be compensated for that."
"Don't waste your breath. I can't help you anymore. I’ve never seen any trace of your so-called compensation."
"Move forward 300 meters, and then dig ten meters into the ground."
Luo Lao'er blinked. "Is this a joke? Why should I start digging because you tell me to? What if there’s a trap there waiting for me?"
"Setting a trap for someone like you is not worth my time."
The blunt answer convinced Luo Lao'er, even if he did not like it. "You're the one not worth my time! I am Monarch Luo's son."
Even so, he followed the instructions and started digging. To his astonishment, he really did find something: a cosmic ring.
"These are… flouris.h.i.+ng crystals? So many flouris.h.i.+ng crystals?" Luo Lao'er was amazed. The cosmic ring contained tens of thousands of flouris.h.i.+ng crystals, which was a substantial amount of wealth.
Hui crystals were the best way to absorb Monarch Essence. Many people used the crystals to support their cultivation of Monarch Essence in the Three Monarchs Universe. As the options were to absorb Monarch Essence from either tools or flouris.h.i.+ng crystals, flouris.h.i.+ng crystals were naturally the Three Monarchs Universe’s standard currency.
For someone with a cultivation equivalent to an Enlighter, tens of thousands of flouris.h.i.+ng crystals was a significant amount.
The deep voice echoed, "How is it? Have you been compensated enough?"
Luo Lao'er's expression softened. "When did you put this cosmic ring here?"
The question was ignored, as the deep voice spoke again. "The secret auction will still happen, though we will invite a much smaller number of people, so as to prevent the information from leaking. I will provide you with a list. You need only to invite those on it. The auction will take place in three days’ time."
Luo Lao'er felt torn. Should he do it or not? It was quite the question. After all, he had already been paid for the work. Even if he chose not to follow through, it would be impossible for anyone to take back the money. Luo Lao'er had already pa.s.sed the Voidforce School’s requirements and could transfer to the Cyclic School whenever he wished. As long as he was close to Xuan Qi, this mysterious person would not be able to cause any trouble for Luo Lao’er. There were too many eyes on Xuan Qi.
"For completing this task, you will be rewarded with 100,000 flouris.h.i.+ng crystals," the deep voice echoed.
Shock made Luo Lao'er's eyes go wide. "100,000 flouris.h.i.+ng crystals? Are you sure?"
"Compared to what will be sold in the secret auction, such resources mean nothing."
Luo Lao'er’s astonishment only grew. "Just what are you guys selling?"
"You don't need to worry about that. Will you perform the task, or not?"
"I’ll do it," Luo Lao'er said through clenched teeth. He desperately needed the resources. Despite being Monarch Luo's son, he continuously lacked sufficient resources, as he was forced to completely rely on himself to support his cultivation. He was not being offered an insignificant amount of resources.
Shortly thereafter, Luo Lao'er gathered himself together and started heading towards the Cyclic School.
The next day, Luo Lao'er was speaking with Lu Yin. "Brother-in-law, I have met the requirements."
Lu Yin was surprised, "You’ve met the Voidforce Universe’s requirements?"
Luo Lao'er nodded excitedly. "Yes!"
"Congratulations," Lu Yin said indifferently.
Luo Lao'er's expression fell. "Brother-in-law, couldn’t you be just a little more excited for me? After all, your younger brother just pa.s.sed a school’s requirements."
"What is it that you want?" Lu Yin asked. He was well aware that Luo Lao’er was not free enough to travel across the academy just to share that he had met one school’s requirements.
Luo Lao'er leaned close and stated in a hushed tone. "There’s going to be another underground auction. Interested?"
Lu Yin was surprised. "Is this the one that was canceled?"
"Yes, but things are going to be done differently this time. They're not inviting as many people, and are instead limiting things to just a small circle. Only the top elites of the Sixverse Academy, like Shao Qingfeng and He Shu, will be attending," Luo Lao'er explained.
Lu Yin nodded. "Of course I'll go."
"Alright. It’s going to take place tomorrow. Should we start heading over now?" Luo Lao'er suggested.
Lu Yin was quite interested in the secret auction. He wanted to see if the mountain that was capable of holding living creatures was truly a Zenith Mountain.
After the Sixverse Academy’s administration had swept through Cliff Town during the last time the secret auction had been scheduled, the once bustling town had transformed into a desolate wasteland. Even so, the Sixverse Academy had not completely destroyed Cliff Town, which had puzzled many of the students.
Since the academy clearly knew that Cliff Town existed, why had they deliberately interfered with the last secret auction?
"Do you know why the Sixverse Academy performed a sweep of the last auction?" Luo Lao'er whispered. "Apparently, they believed that there was a traitor among the students."
"A traitor?" Lu Yin arched a brow.
Luo Lao'er continued, "It was that Qi San. Aeternus won’t allow the Sixverse a.s.sociation to integrate the powers of the different universes, and it was known from the beginning that they would target this Singularity Universe. The Sixverse Academy had already predicted as much. The commotion that was stirred up by the last secret auction was supposed to have let them to capture any Aeternal infiltrators, which was the entire reason for the raid on that auction. With Qi San already exposed, there won't be any problems with this underground auction."
"Shouldn’t there still be other traitors?" Lu Yin asked.
Luo Lao'er shook his head. "There can't be that many peak powerhouses who’ve snuck in, and anyone who’s not at that level can't stay hidden in the Singularity Universe. At best, they can only match the few old people overseeing the academy here. If they can't even beat those old people, then it’s almost impossible for them to do anything to the true elites here. People like Shao Qingfeng and He Shu unquestionably have some tricks up their sleeves. I can promise you that He Shu has a hidden blue or even red energy converter.
"When it comes to people like Shao Qingfeng and Jiang Xiaodao who have peak powerhouses behind them, keeping a good trick or two is nothing."
As the two men chatted, they entered Cliff Town.
Everyone there was wearing masks, just like in the past. Even so, it was easy to make out who each person was, as there were only a few students present.
"That Shao Qingfeng is really despicable," Luo Lao'er whispered. When he and Lu Yin arrived at the location of the secret auction, several people had already been present, including Shao Qingfeng.
His signature golden robe was all too easily recognized.
Mu Mu was also present, easily identified due to the fact that she similarly never changed her style of dress.
He Shu soon arrived, followed by Jiang Xiaodao, Luo Zang, and others, one after another.
Lu Yin recognized everyone, as they had either visited the Arboreal Sanctuary, the Voidchaos Territory, or both with him.
When Luo Lao'er saw that Luo Zang had arrived, he retreated a few steps, and resentment filled his eyes.
Luo Zang looked over, his eyes sweeping over Xuan Qi before landing on Luo Lao'er. He walked forward and stopped in front of the two. "Brother Xuan Qi, we meet again."
Lu Yin nodded.
Luo Zang then looked at Luo Lao'er. "It's been a long time, Second Brother."
Luo Lao'er answered in a flat tone. "I'm unworthy of that t.i.tle."
Luo Zang chuckled casually. Despite the mask on his face, contempt and disregard clearly radiated out from him. "You've worked hard representing our universe while being a hostage in the Transcendent Universe. Still, you shouldn't have come here."
"The Transcendent Universe agreed to it," Luo Lao'er said.
Luo Zang shook his head. "The Transcendent Universe may have, but Father has not."
Luo Lao'er said nothing.
"You’re a hostage, and you should know your place. Your ignorance will cause others to look down on us. Don't you agree, Second Brother?" Luo Zang whispered.
Luo Lao'er clenched his fists. "That’s not your decision."
Luo Zang chuckled. "I'm just considering your safety. This Sixverse Academy doesn't forbid killing."
He took a step forward, eliminating the s.p.a.ce between the two brothers until there was less than a meter. Luo Lao'er instinctively pulled back. Luo Zang stopped and studied Luo Lao’er in a curious manner. "You don't want to end up like our other brothers, do you?"
He then turned around and walked away. "Brother Xuan Qi, thank you for watching over my useless second brother. I, Luo Zang, owe you a favor."
The slightest tremor ran through Luo Lao'er's body as a combination of fear and anger coursed through him.
This was the first time that Lu Yin had ever seen the young man lose control of his emotions. He set a hand on Luo Lao'er's shoulder. "Your little brother needs to be taught a lesson."
Luo Lao'er made himself calm down and forced a bitter smile onto his face. "Brother-in-law, I've embarra.s.sed myself in front of you."
The secret auction was scheduled for the following day, so the invited partic.i.p.ants needed to spend the night in Cliff Town. The entire night was silent, and only a few conversations broke out. Luo Zang did nothing more to bother Luo Lao'er, and everyone else acted like strangers. However, all of that changed the moment Jiang Xiaodao arrived, as he immediately started by directing a provocative challenge towards Mu Mu.
Mu Mu felt quite frustrated, but she had no answer to his pestering. After Jiang Xiaodao had obtained the River Chroma innate gift, his Sky River battle technique had become powerful enough to put him on equal footing with Mu Mu.
Seruzen also arrived.
"Were you the one who invited Seruzen?" Lu Yin asked Luo Lao'er as soon as he noticed Seruzen.
Luo Lao'er shook his head. "It wasn't me. The person behind this auction has contacts in each of the schools. Seruzen is still in the Lost Clan School."
"In that case, why were you the one to invite me?" Lu Yin asked curiously.
Luo Lao'er smiled. "That might have been because they felt that you’d be more likely to believe the information if it came from me, Brother-in-law."
He had come to understand why he had been rewarded with such a generous amount of flouris.h.i.+ng crystals; it had been his payment for inviting Xuan Qi.
Lu Yin found this rather odd. Auctions were held to make a profit, so why would anyone invite Seruzen? It was plain as day that the man was penniless.
Mu Mu found Seruzen’s presence to be just as out of place as Lu Yin, and she pulled Seruzen aside to talk to him.
"Have you managed to find out what Seruzen’s acquired innate gift is?" Lu Yin asked. He had previously asked Luo Lao'er to look into the matter.
Luo Lao'er became irritated. "I couldn't, though I did learn one thing, which is still unconfirmed."
He glanced at Mu Mu before whispering, "There's a rumor that he managed to pick a pentachromic fruit."
Lu Yin's expression changed. How many people throughout the entire history of the Arboreal Realm had managed to pick a pentachromatic fruit? Considering the importance that Mu Mu openly placed on Seruzen and how tight a secret his innate gift was, it seemed quite possible that he had obtained a truly extraordinary innate gift.
As he recalled the various peculiar trees that he had seen in the Arboreal Sanctuary, Lu Yin wondered which one Seruzen had acquired.
Suddenly, Lu Yin turned to face a certain direction. In that direction, an enchanting figure was approaching. Despite her mask, she radiated a peerless beauty, giving off the impression of a proud white lotus. Even her gentle footsteps were enough to instantly capture everyone's attention.
The entire area fell silent as all eyes were drawn to the approaching woman. For a moment, even the stars lost their brilliance.
He Shu stepped forward and respectfully greeted the woman. "Milady."
She stopped and addressed him with a cold voice, "Such an att.i.tude towards me will anger your sister."
He Shu ducked his head, though an intense desire filled his eyes. It was as though he wanted nothing more than to devour the woman before him. It was a look of obsession. "For you, milady, I would willingly bear any punishment."
