However, who would have thought that today, she was already a cold and valiant cultivator?

"Miss, I …" "I'm not afraid …" The fox girl blushed as she whispered.

Ruo Lan smiled. "What's your name?"

"The fiery moon."

"This name isn't bad." Ruo Lan smiled. "Help me inform City Lord Yero that I want to go to the auction hall to take a look."

"Yes."

Huo Yue received the order and arrived shortly after with a guard.

"Fellow Taoist Lan, the city lord ordered that you can just treat this place as your own." Within this City Lord's Mansion, you don't need to inform him where you want to go to. " The guard respectfully said.

Ruo Lan chuckled. "Thank you so much, City Lord Yero." She turned her head, the smile on her face immediately retracted. A cold light flashed in her eyes as she looked at Xi Yue and Jun Wu You. She softly said, "Xi Yue, Lan Ruo, let's go take a look."

The three of them arrived at the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion. In a large room next to the main hall was the auction house.

As he walked in, he saw that there was an auction going on. It was a fist-sized fire elemental ore, and the demon spirits didn't seem to be interested in it.

Ruo Lan narrowed her eyes and sized up the fire elemental ore. She was surprised to find that the purity of the ore was unexpectedly high. However, the ones who could participate in the auction were all sea spirits. This kind of thing was quite difficult for them.

"Fellow Daoists, this fire elemental ore was retrieved by the seller from the underground volcano at the risk of his life. Three hundred middle grade Profound Rank spirit stones are not considered expensive at all!" The auctioneer was a fish demon with a long beard, earnestly trying to persuade them.

Without a second word, Ruo Lan raised her hand. "I offer three hundred."

Hearing someone bid, the auctioneer immediately became excited and loudly said, "This Fellow Daoist is really knowledgeable. 300 Spirit Stones for this ore is a huge bargain!"

Ruo Lan pursed her lips and said, "I know what I'm doing. Hurry up and count!"

"Which other dao friend wants to increase the bid?" Once, twice, thrice … "Deal!"

Xi Yue walked up and handed over the chips. After a while, she returned with the fire ore.

Ruo Lan held it in her hand and looked at it for a while with narrowed eyes. There was only one thought echoing in his mind: What a lucky break this time!

If such a spirit stone were to be magnified in the mainland, without more than a thousand high-grade Profound Rank spirit stones, it would be impossible to even think about it! Even if he had spirit stones, this kind of ore with a pure fire attribute was priceless.

"This East Sea is truly a treasure trove. We might even be able to make a small fortune here. " Rowland muttered.

Jun Wu You was listening at the side, his heart was moved as he whispered: "I heard that they're not only selling ores and such here, but also some magical equipment."

Rowan was shocked. "Why are there magic treasures here?"

Xi Yue said in a low voice, "There are many rogue cultivators' residences above the East Sea. Occasionally, I would find one and I would dig it. Naturally, there is no lack of magic treasures. There are also some cultivators who heard that they came to the East Sea to provoke them. After they were killed by the East Sea demon spirit, their magic treasures naturally fell into the hands of the demon spirit. "

Only now did Ruo Lan understand, and she became even more excited.

They had long since heard that there were many Loose Immortals abroad. Although they hadn't had the chance to find their Immortal's Cave in the past few years, if they were able to find a few decent magic treasures here, it would be quite fortunate.

They found a place to sit down and waited quietly. After a short while, a second item was brought up. It was a long bag, and from the looks of it, it contained some sort of weapon.

"This second item …" The auctioneer mysteriously smiled. "But it's something with a great history."

With that, he slowly untied the package, revealing a bright red sword hilt surrounded by golden threads.

Seeing the hilt, Ruo Lan's expression changed greatly and she abruptly stood up.

"Haha, Fellow Daoist, don't worry. If Fellow Daoist is able to afford it later, then this magic treasure will naturally belong to you." The auctioneer laughed.

Ruo Lan took a deep breath and slowly sat down. Xi Yue, who was at the side, looked at her in surprise. "What's wrong?"

"I recognize this sword!" Ruo Lan bit her lips, then said with a trembling voice, "This is Fairy Lan's personal sword, one of the four great swords of the Jadeite Mountains, Orchid …" But, but … This divine sword was worn by Master Fairy Lan herself, why would it be here?! " Ruo Lan's face was pale as she whispered.

If not for the mask covering her face, anyone would have been able to see the peculiar expression on her face.

Jun Wu Yi had heard of the Orchid Divine Sword before. He had seen Fairy Lan a few times, as well as the Orchid Divine Sword. Now that Ruo Lan mentioned it, he immediately recognized it.

"Don't be too worried. When the auction ends, we'll go find the auctioneer and ask him. Let's see if he knows how the sword got to the East Sea." Maybe someone stole it. " Jun Wu Xiang said in a low voice.

Hearing that, Roulan was startled and muttered, "Yes! It must have been stolen by someone! With Master's strength, it's impossible for her to fall to anyone! "

It was obvious that although the name of the Orchid Divine Sword was well-known in the East China Sea, many of the demon spirits present had heard of it before. However, this pure fire type earth-step treasure couldn't pique the interest of the demon spirits.

The auctioneer could only bitterly smile and cast his gaze at Ruo Lan.

Ruo Lan had already calmed down. When she saw the auctioneer's gaze land on her, she only turned her head slightly, pretending not to see it. When the auctioneer was about to announce the auction, Ruo Lan spent five hundred Spirit Stones to bid for it.

Most of the items to be auctioned were mostly ores, but the price was a little too expensive. A few days ago, Ruo Lan bought six mid-grade Profound Ranked Spirit Stones, which were two kinds of Spirit Stones. However, she wanted to bid thirty Spirit Stones per Spirit Stone, which was several times more expensive than normal.

When the auction finally ended, Ruo Lan brought Xi Yue to the back of the auction house.

"Who is the seller of this sword?" Ruo Lan asked the auctioneer straightforwardly.

The auctioneer was surprised, but he immediately smiled and said, "Lady, this is a secret. No matter where in the world, an auction house cannot sell out news of the seller."

Ruo Lan had been extremely anxious. Now that she heard that the auctioneer was still talking to her in a leisurely manner, she stepped forward and grabbed the auctioneer's chest.

Normally speaking, Ruo Lan should have lost all her strength. As a demon spirit, the auctioneer should at least have a Xiantian level strength. Normally, Ruo Lan wouldn't be able to catch him. But today, Ruo Lan had a Breaking Dawn Moon by her side. The boundless killing intent of the Deathsworn technique was released slightly, causing the auctioneer to be unable to move at all.

"Fellow Daoist, please calm down, please calm down!" The auctioneer's head was drenched in sweat as he cried out with a trembling voice.

Jun Wu You, who was at the side, also quickly pulled on Ruo Lan's hand, and Ruo Lan took a deep breath and slowly loosened her grip.

The auctioneer said with a sad face, "Fellow Daoist, you are making things difficult for me. How could I dare to casually leak information about you selling people? This is against the rules! "

Ruo Lan didn't say anything and just shrugged at Xi Yue.

Xi Yue immediately took out her purse and put it all on Rulan's hand.

"There are one thousand middle grade Profound Rank spirit stones here. Just tell me if you want to sell them." "If you don't say …" Ruo Lan sneered as she viciously stared at the auctioneer and said word by word, "If you don't say it, then don't blame me for being merciless. I'll take your spirit soul. I'll make it so that you can never reincarnate!"

Hearing this, the auctioneer was scared out of his wits. Ruo Lan's cold gaze made him realize that the girl before him wasn't joking.

To humans, a demon spirit's control over the power of a spirit soul was far more tyrannical. Even if a demon spirit with a certain level of cultivation was severely injured, as long as the spirit soul didn't perish and found the target to possess within a certain period of time, they would immediately be revived.

Ruo Lan's threatening words struck the auctioneer's weak spot.

The auctioneer hesitated for a moment before clenching his teeth and accepting the money bag from Ruo Lan. He whispered, "It was delivered by the City Lord."

With that, he quickly left without looking back.

Ruo Lan frowned and thought for a long time before she slowly walked back to her own courtyard.

In the evening, Ruo Lan carried the Divine Orchid Sword on her shoulder and slowly walked to Yero's residence in the inner courtyard.

"Fellow Daoist, please help me report that Ruo Lan requests an audience." At the main entrance, Ruo Lan smiled and said to a guard.

A short while later, footsteps rang out from behind the door. And Jerome followed the guard, and came out.

"Haha, Fellow Lan, if there's anything you need, just send someone to call for me. Yero can go find you. Why did you come here by yourself?" Yero laughed.

Ruo Lan smiled faintly and said: "Today, I obtained a treasure from the Auction House. I couldn't help but come to look for City Lord Yero to appraise it."

Yero smiled faintly. Of course, someone had informed him of Ruo Lan's activities within the City Lord's Mansion.

"Fellow Daoist Lan, let's talk inside."

The two entered the hall and sat down.

"What treasure? Fellow Daoist Lan, you're so excited." Yero chuckled.

Ruo Lan drew the Orchid Divine Sword from her waist and said with a smile, "Take a look, this is it."

"Orchid God Sword?" Yero squinted his eyes and laughed.

"That's right!"

As Ruo Lan drew her sword, the hall suddenly burst into flames. This was not a bright flame, it was just that this sword was made from a pure fire type ore. There was not the slightest bit of impurity within it, so the moment the blade was drawn, a phantom image of fire formed around it.

"Legend has it that this Orchid Divine Sword is a pure fire attributed weapon, a medium-grade earth-step divine tool!" Legend has it that it is the supreme treasure of the Immortal Family, owned by the Jadecloud Mountain, one of the Nine Heavenly Mountains. " Ruo Lan let out a long breath and continued, "When I was inland, I had heard about this blade. I thought it was just a legend of immortals, but I didn't expect to meet it again in the East China Sea. Who knows where this expert came from? If I were to meet him, I would definitely have a good chat with him. " After saying that, admiration appeared on her face.

Yero laughed heartily and said: "Fellow Taoist Lan, if you want to find the person you want to sell, then there is no need to travel all over the East China Sea."

"Why?" Ruo Lan's face was filled with confusion.

"Isn't the person who retrieved the sword sitting right in front of you?" Yero said with a contented smile on his face.

Ruo Lan was stunned for a moment, then she exclaimed in shock, "Could it be that City Lord Yero went inland to find this blade?"

Yero smiled and said, "It can't be said that I went to look for him. Someone sent him here."

Rowland frowned. "Mayor Yero, this little girl is very curious. Could you please explain in detail why someone sent over such a treasured sword?"

Yero laughed, "Does Fellow Lan know my true identity?"
