The Ye Family's patriarch had always wanted a son.

The Ye Family had been handed down from generation to generation, and they were never very prosperous. After getting two daughters in a row, the Ye Family's patriarch dreamed of having a son. In the Tian Yuan Continent, it was normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, but the patriarch Ye had always been an infatuated child. He had only married one woman in his entire life.

For the inheritance of the family, patriarch Ye and his wife worked hard. They didn't even step out of the house during the day and only wanted to create people. Their hard work had paid off, and their third child was finally someone to be reckoned with.

Ye Chonglou was excited. He thought for a long time before giving a domineering name — Night Three Cannon. Actually, this was also related to the birth of Third Young Master Ye. If it weren't for the three cannons every night, Third Young Master Ye wouldn't be here right now.

Old Lord Ye was so overjoyed that he invited his son, inviting the entire Tian Chi Town to the Ye Residence for a flowing water banquet. The banquet lasted for seven days and seven nights. However, the joyous atmosphere didn't last for long in the Ye family. When his son had just reached the full moon, old patriarch Ye personally brought people to the Heavenly Desolate Forest to capture a magical beast cub for his son.

Old Master Ye's wife, who thought of her husband, cried every day. Her body was getting worse every day. At the age of seven, she also left with her husband.

Third Young Master Ye really disliked people calling him by his name. It could even be said that he was his reverse scale. This was not a secret in Heaven Lake Town. Over time, the people of Tian Chi Town would respectfully call out "Third Young Master", but his real name was gradually forgotten.

The person in black robe obviously did not want to deal with Third Young Master Ye, "I'm your sister, it's only right and proper to call you by your name!"

Third Young Master Ye opened his mouth to retort, but discovered that the dancing woman had already retreated.

The seven-colored crystal light on the stage suddenly dimmed, and a group of attendants stepped onto the stage. A translucent purple muslin cloth was pulled up in front of the stage, and a delicate zither was placed on the sandalwood table.

The entire hall instantly became incomparably quiet. Perhaps it was because of the sudden change in the atmosphere, but it also seemed to be attracted by the young girl's gentle demeanor.

In the back, when elder sister Hong saw the effect of Guo Guo's appearance, she nodded to herself while revealing a helpless and complicated expression.

Guo Guo knew that this day would come sooner or later. In the past, she might have felt despair, but now, what she felt more was nervousness and anticipation. Even though she did not see the angular face in the crowd.

She believed him!

Even if it was just a chance encounter, not even a deep conversation, she told him her story, and he listened quietly by her side. It was very short, but it made her feel a sense of security that she could only feel in the arms of her parents.

"Clang!"

Her fair fingers lightly plucked at the strings, and a clear zither sound like a stream deep in the mountains rang out.

The melody was not too passionate. Normally, it was hard for it to resonate with these mercenaries who had gone through countless hot-blooded battles. However, just this gentle tune alone was enough to attract everyone's attention.

Some people thought of their family members who had left, some people thought of their comrades who had passed away, and some people thought of the shallow throbbing that they did not understand and cherish when they were young.

Mo Li was also deeply attracted by the melodious sound of the zither.

He was not proficient in the rhythm of the music, so it could be said that he did not understand this field at all. However, he could hear a hidden helplessness and loneliness from the faint sound of the zither. Perhaps it was because he knew about the girl's past that he understood the emotions in the zither music more than anyone else. At the same time, he thought of another girl who was as pure as white paper. On the night before they parted, he also heard a melody that seemed to come from beyond the heavens.

At the end of the song, the people in the hall were still unable to recover from the melodious melody.

After a long while, the first person started clapping, followed by waves of applause echoing throughout the hall.

"Really, I feel pity for you..." I'm starting to worry that we don't have enough money on us … " Even Feng Ling, who was a woman, had to admit that not only was the young girl's appearance so fresh and soft that people couldn't help but want to take care of her, but at the same time, she had talent that didn't match her age.

"Regardless of whether or not it is enough, we must bid it off! "Only then will I have the chance to go to the fourth floor …" Feng Ling was not stupid, but she was still confused by Mo Li's words. She had never been able to figure out what this man was trying to do!

His goal was clear, and that was Liu Zhi Long. But what if he really became the guest of the young girl on the stage, and Liu Zhi Long went back with Jin Hu and the others? Wasn't it also impossible to get close to him?

She couldn't figure it out, but she didn't ask. She was more curious about what kind of surprise this man would bring her.

After playing a song, Guo Guo stood up and bowed to the people in the hall. Under their reluctant but anxious gazes, she left the stage.

She didn't know what her fate would be tonight, and all she could do was wait.

Only after a long time did the crowd withdraw their gazes from the corridor. Sister Hong gave a charming laugh and stood on the stage.

"Everyone, everyone has seen our family's Guoguo. Whether it is in terms of appearance or talent, there is no need to talk about it. What is even more rare is …" Guo Guo's body is still innocent … "

"Sister Hong, just name a price!"

"Exactly, name a price!"

Without waiting for Sister Hong to finish speaking, the hall had already turned into a mess. The maid took the wine pot and passed it to the others to get more wine for them.

"Good!" The starting price is five thousand silvers, and each increase must not be less than one thousand silvers. The Red Sister knew that these people were anxious, so she smiled and did not say anything after giving the bid.

Five thousand taels!

This was already a sky-high price for a normal mercenary. Using five thousand taels to exchange for a single night's worth of happiness was enough to make most of the people's blood rush to their heads. Even the heavyweights sitting in the first row began to frown.

"I bid 6,000 taels!" After a short period of silence, a voice sounded out from the hall. It seemed that there was no lack of people who were willing to spend a fortune just because they were attracted by Guo Guo.

"Seven thousand!"

"Nine thousand!"

The scattered bids were all gathered in the main hall. Those with true strength wouldn't start bidding right now.

"Elder Liu, are you satisfied with this girl?" Seeing that Liu Zhilong wanted to say something, but was hesitant, and his eyes constantly lit up, how could Jin Hu not know what he was thinking?

"It's not bad!" Puckering his lips, even though Liu Zhi Long said so, the light in his eyes became much brighter.

"Since Elder Liu likes it, I will try my best to help you take it!" Jin Hu laughed heartily as he turned his head to look at Sister Hong who was on the stage. He then slowly said, "Twenty thousand taels!"
