249 Another Upgrade

Fengxing Auction House, Lingjiang City

Ge Youqian passed through the pure white corridor of the auction house and stopped in front of a white wall.

He pressed his hand on the wall. Five pure gold rings were inlaid with five different diamonds, each of which was blue, white, green, and purple.

The jade bracelet on his wrist turned with his palm and jingled.

Buzz…

The stone wall in front of him fell down with a loud bang, revealing a long staircase that led underground.

Then, he walked down the damp and gloomy stairs for about seven to eight meters before stopping.

Pa!

He snapped his fingers, and a string of lights instantly lit up around them.

In front of him were three rows of wooden shelves that stretched to the end of his vision.

Ge Youqian’s eyes were calm as he walked into the depths of the secret chamber.

The items on the wooden shelves along the way were all kinds of treasures. Although many of them were already broken, or their auras had already leaked out, they were still within the scope of treasured weapons.

Moreover, the number was shocking, reaching more than a hundred.

Da da da da…

He stood at the end of the corridor. In front of him was a row of jade cabinets with exquisite carvings made of colorless jade. Just these jade stones alone were worth hundreds of thousands of taels.

As for the items in the jade cabinet… Armor, long swords, boots, belts, helmets, heart protection mirrors, arm guards, necklaces… There were eighteen of them, and they were all genuine artifacts.

This did not include what Ge Youqian was wearing.

If the people from the three major forces saw this, they would definitely curse. Any one of the three forces might not have as many artifacts as Ge Youqian.

Dong dong dong…

Hurried footsteps came from behind him, but they slowed down as they approached Ge Youqian.

“Young Master…”

“Shh!”

Ge Youqian placed a hand on his lips. “Do you think I should wear all these artifacts? The Zhang family has a lot of people. If I go up the mountain to save him… If we don’t bring more, I’m afraid it’ll be difficult to retreat safely.”

When he handed some money over to Qin Huai, he had already expected that regardless of whether Qin Huai could prove his innocence or not, the outcome would be similar.

The luckiest Qin Huai was expelled from the Nine Dragons sect and was safe and sound. If they were unlucky, the Zhang family might take the opportunity to get rid of Qin Huai, this ‘scourge’, along with the entire Li family.

In any case, there was no way Qin Huai could stay in the Nine Dragons sect just because he proved his innocence. After all, Qin Huai and his helpers were far weaker than the massive Zhang family.

“Brother Qin is still too naive~”

Ge Youqian didn’t remind Qin Huai, because he knew that Qin Huai wouldn’t listen even if he told him. Qin Huai would definitely feel that he was lucky enough to escape this calamity.

This was the weakness of the human heart, and most people could not avoid it.

However, this situation wasn’t bad either. It could give Ge Youqian a chance to be a hero and save the damsel in distress.

Sending charcoal in the snow, plus a hero saving the damsel in distress… Brother Qin would definitely be grateful to him and put himself in his shoes. This was the correct way to invest in geniuses, the complete process.

After all, a friend in need was a friend indeed.

Wanli Street, where the Fengxing Auction House was located, wasn’t far from the Nine Dragons sect. If a bone pattern realm expert like him ran at full speed, he would be able to arrive in a few dozen breaths.

In order to not alert the enemy and cause unnecessary changes, he waited quietly in the auction house. As he was thinking, he hung a curved sword on his waist and an ancient necklace around his neck.

“How are the preparations going?” he said as he put on his clothes.

“Young Master, I don’t think we need to go,” the butler behind him smiled bitterly.

“Brother Qin is dead? That’s impossible. Aren’t the second and fourth branches of the Li family his people? At this point, they should still be arguing. Even if they fought… Brother Qin should have been escorted out of the Nine Dragons sect.” Ge Youqian frowned. “Could it be that his father-in-law ambushed him? ”

“The Zhang family is finished,” the butler answered bluntly.

Ge Youqian suddenly turned his head and looked at the key with a bitter smile.

“Brother Qin, what other trump cards do you have?” He narrowed his eyes as his brain spun rapidly.

The three elders of the Gu family? No, with the current strength of the Li family, even with the three elders of the Gu family, they were still at a disadvantage.

It was possible to settle this matter, but it was impossible to destroy the Zhang family.

“I don’t know… Our spies have discovered that many Li family disciples have walked out of the Nine Dragons sect and taken over many shops in the city that should have been owned by the Zhang family.”

Ge Youqian’s pupils constricted. Of course, he knew what this meant. The Li family taking over the Zhang family’s businesses meant that Zhang Wu had lost.

However, there were no sounds or rumors about the Nine Dragons sect in the city, which meant that the Li family had not only won, but also won a great victory… Zhang Wu and his people were probably hanged in the Nine Dragons sect.

Ge Youqian quickly said, “If anyone from the Nine Dragons sect comes to buy anything, you must inform me. Ah, no. Go prepare five hundred thousand taels of silver for me. And also pills, herbs, armor, and weapons. Send them all to the Nine Dragons sect immediately!”

Ge Youqian made a prompt decision.

“Brother Qin, oh Brother Qin, you are truly extraordinary.”

In Qin Huai’s courtyard, the disciples of the Li family carried large and small wooden cabinets, potted plants, and some exquisite brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones into the courtyard.

Qin Huai’s original bedroom had been tidied up, and it had been replaced with rare goods from the state capital.

The guest room next to the bedroom had been converted into a study.

A lifelike jade dragon carving plate was placed on the table. On the wall, there was the ‘Righteous True Dragon’ personally mentioned by Mister Guo Liu, the number one master of the state city during the era of the Great You’s former emperor.

There was also a brush inlaid with gold thread, and a five-hundred-year-old peach wood rocking chair that emitted the fragrance of peaches.
