1022 Face Slapping Level Up (1)
In the Cao family.
“Patriarch, this is the list of items that will be auctioned at the Song family’s auction tonight.” One of the Cao family’s trusted aides handed the smooth list to him respectfully.
Master Cao took it and flipped through it.
However, the more he read, the uglier his expression became.
Space Storage talisman, Wuwang Tianteng Fruit, Beautifying Pill, Lotus Pill, Wuwang Tianteng Pill, Xuanyun Pill!
Either of the above was extremely rare, but the new Mu family could take out so much at once. They could be said to be rich and imposing, spending a lot!
“Patriarch, I think that Apothecary Lu is not ordinary. According to our investigation, she suddenly rose to prominence. Before the age of nineteen, she was just an ordinary person. However, after she turned nineteen, she suddenly seemed to have become a different person. Not only was she proficient in spells and talismans, but she was also shockingly outstanding in alchemy. It would be a little unreasonable to say that she didn’t have anyone to teach her.”
“To be able to teach such an outstanding person, that person must not be simple. Perhaps… he’s an expert from the Upper Martial World.”
At this point, his trusted aide glanced at Master Cao carefully before saying, “Master, I think it’s not a wise choice to become enemies with Alchemist Lu.”
Master Cao’s expression was extremely dark, but he wasn’t angry. He held the auction list with all his might.
“Do you think I haven’t thought of this? I didn’t approve of it from the beginning. But what can I do? As the head of the Cao family, I’m just a puppet!”
Facing his trusted aide, Master Cao didn’t hide his true thoughts.
His trusted aide also knew about the Cao family’s situation and couldn’t help but sigh slightly. “Patriarch, we should think of a way. If this continues, the Cao family will be defeated by the First Elder sooner or later.
“Although the First Elder has lowered herself to marry into our Cao family, she’s not a member of our Cao family after all. She might not care about the life and death of our Cao family at all.”
The head of the Cao family smiled bitterly. “How can I not know? But… What else do you think I can do? “The entire Cao family is under the Great Elder’s control. Coupled with the Silver Moon Clan in the Upper Martial World behind her, I, the head of the Cao family, can’t do anything to her.”
His confidant frowned and opened his mouth, as though he wanted to persuade him. However, he was interrupted by Master Cao.
“Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. All these years, I’ve already done my best. I can’t care what happens to the Cao family in the end.”
Master Cao closed his eyes tiredly, looking very dispirited, as though he had really given up on the Cao family.
Seeing this, his confidant stopped persuading him, but he asked, “Patriarch, are we going to this auction?”
When the Cao family head heard this, he slowly opened his eyes, which were a little dark. “They already said that they don’t welcome our Cao family. Why are you still going? Anyway, I don’t want to get involved anymore. They can do whatever they want. I don’t care anymore.”
…
The auction venue chosen by the Song family was in a five-star hotel under the Song family.
The venue was enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people.
At this moment, the entrance of the five-star hotel was bustling with people.
“Kids, you have to recognize and endure it. You can’t let those three families in. Otherwise, your resources will be deducted for a month!”
The Fourth Elder of the Mu family placed his hands behind his back and said to the hundred or so new Mu family disciples who were standing in a long line.
