128 The Xia Family From Heaven City 2

Gu Ruoyun was slightly astonished. Even if there was a force more powerful than the Imperial family in Azure Dragon Country, to let that force decide upon the recipient of the title of Crown Prince, this, she had never heard of.

What kind of place is this mysterious Heaven City?

"Can you continue to explain the situation of Heaven City to me?" Gu Ruoyun asked in excitement.

"Of course." There was a smile in Zuo Shangchen’s phoenix-like eyes, "The Lord of Heaven City is the Xia family. It was said that the Young Master of the Xia family had a weak body since his childhood and would not live past the age of fifteen. However, a couple of months ago, the Young Master’s illness suddenly vanished and his cultivation began to improve by leaps and bounds. His situation is not very much different from your own."

When he said this, he narrowed his eyes slightly as he scrutinized the girl before him.

According to Qingyi’s information, Gu Ruoyun had indeed been a good-for-nothing. All the changes about her had occurred after she had come back from the dead...

Gu Ruoyun’s heart could not help but skip a beat. She took a deep breath as she asked, "The Young Master of Xia family, what’s his name?"

"Xia Linyu."

Boom!

It was as if a shocking thunder had erupted within Gu Ruoyun’s heart. Her whole body shuddered. She quickly covered her mouth and tears started to flow slowly through the slits between her fingers.

Yu’er...

Is it him? Could it be him?

Could it be that he is still alive in this world?

In her previous life, he was the one whom she had been willing to sacrifice her life to protect. In the end, he had been dismembered before her very eyes, dying brutally. What kind of heart-wrenching pain was that?

To have been unable to protect the people she cared about, that was the one thing she had regretted the most.

"Ruoyun, are you alright?" Luo Yin looked at Gu Ruoyun with surprise and asked, puzzled.

If memory serves right, Gu Ruoyun had never left Azure Dragon Country. How could she be acquainted with the Young Master of the Xia family from Heaven City? Why had Gu Ruoyun become so emotional after hearing Xia Linyu’s name?

"I’m fine."

Luo Yin’s voice pulled Gu Ruoyun out of her daze. She realized that everyone was looking at her with strange expressions. She quickly wiped her tears dry and replied with a smile.

Zuo Shangchen furrowed his brows slightly and looked wonderingly at Gu Ruoyun. After a long pause, he said, "Xiao Yun’er, Heaven City is cut off from the outside world. Outsiders cannot enter unless they have the Lord’s decree."

"Thank you."

Gu Ruoyun nodded lightly and smiled gratefully.

She was grateful that Zuo Shangchen had told her all of this. It did not matter if the Young Master of the Xia family was Yu’er or not, she had to go to Heaven City.

"If you want to thank me, come and give me a hug."

Zuo Shangchen opened his arms lazily and waited for the girl to give him a hug.

However, Zuo Shangchen’s words made Susu stamp her feet in discontent, "Brother Chen!"

Brother Chen never liked other people touching him but now he wanted to hug another woman!

This left a sour feeling in her heart. She looked at Gu Ruoyun with a hostile gaze.

At that moment, the first round of the auction has just ended. Even if Ba Zhentian had a lot of money, he could never outbid the owner of Heaven City’s biggest medicine hall. The deal was closed with the price of 3 million gold coins.

Of course, this was only the first round, there were many who have not placed a bid. After all, there were four more pills, why should they spend such a large sum for the opening bid?

It was precisely because the crowd had had this thought that they deeply regretted giving up on the first auction round. After all, that round held the lowest price in the entire auction.

"Alright, let’s start with the second auction round. This time we’re starting the bid at 3 million gold coins!"

Boom!

The crowd stirred abruptly. The starting price of the next round was based on the closing price of the previous round?
