Basically, the authority over the Xu capital lies in the hands of the local aristocratic families, led by the city lord's Gao Family. Other than the administration of Xu City, as well as his own family and business, Second Young Master Gao Rui was responsible for managing the Gao Family.

Seated in this position, there was bound to be a lot of social interaction with the various powers, and an invitation from the Wen Family made him free time to go to the Spring Pavilion and meet up with them.

Within the Spring Pavilion, the dishes and fish had already been served. The feast could be said to be sumptuous, and the amber red of a woman was reflected in the jade-green cup. The candlelight reflected in the cup was like the bright moon reflected in the wine.

Wen Qubing smiled slightly. In this banquet, he was not only the main character, but also an unrelated idler, after all, with his many enemies, he couldn't possibly let others know that the Patriarch of the Wen Family had come to Xu Du, if this news were to spread, perhaps even his allies would be willing to be assassins.

As a result, he hid his identity and handed over the task of negotiating over to Wen Xihong who was friendly with Gao Family …

"Brother Wen, long time no see. Why have you not even greeted me when I'm here? I nearly lost the opportunity to be your host. "

"Haha, Brother Gao is too courteous. I have just arrived, so I'm too busy to turn my head. It wasn't easy to get some time, so I immediately booked the Spring Pavilion. I came to drink with Brother Gao first …" "Come on, Brother Gao, you must stay here tonight until you're drunk."

Wen Xihong raised his glass and drank first, after finishing, he turned the cup upside down, to show that there were no more wine left, he acted sincerely, and one of the young men beside him introduced Gao Rui.

"This is the second young master of the Gao Family, someone who has ruled based on his Gao Family for the past two hundred years. Even though the Patriarch, Lord Gao, is the first uncle of Feng Cheng, Ru Xin is the second young master, he has taken over the majority of the business of Gao Family.

Wen Qubing had long known about this information, but he still asked cooperatively, "Second Young Master is so talented, but … Why did the great Young Master Gao Family … "

Gao Ruxin faintly smiled, and said: "My brother is obsessed with the martial way, and in the future, he will inherit the title and become the master of the Gao Family.

Wen Xihong said: "Good teacher, you should know that the young master of Gao Family is a renowned expert of the Star Ranking, his future prospects are limitless, why would you care about such a small business."

"An expert of the Star Ranking?"

For the sake of the atmosphere, Wen Qubing screamed in shock.

As long as he was still a person, with healthy limbs, he would have to learn a few martial skills. Those people who could perform outstandingly in the martial way were highly valued by many, and the result of this situation was the three top rankings of the Sun, Moon, and Star Rankings.

Sun, Moon, and Star Ranking. These were the three boards the Empire had arranged especially for the practitioners of various forces during the period of the Hundred Clan War. After the battle, this incident was also retained and was updated once a month. There were three rankings, and each was stronger than the last. However, after the battle, there were very few powerhouses on the top of the rankings.

Although it was far from being comparable to the strong experts of the sun and moon rankings, it was still not something that could be casually entered. Countless outstanding talents fought to get to the top, and various sects gathered their resources to help the new generation rush up the ranks. As long as they could get on the Star Ranking, they would earn a lot of face, and it could be said that every expert who could rank among the Star Ranking would be an expert that could not be underestimated.

Blade Sealing Alliance was one of the eight great sects, as high as entering the Blade Sealing Alliance and being able to squeeze into the Star Ranking, he was an important person who carried the expectations of both sides. The resources of both the Xu Du Gao Family and the Blade Sealing Alliance were bound to be inclined towards him, and his existence was equal to a friendly alliance between the two families.

"..." What was that? Although my brother is hardworking, he has just entered the Star Ranking and still has a long way to go.

However, he was curious, Wen Xihong invited him to the feast, and then brought all the unrelated people, this person's identity was definitely not simple, what was even stranger was that this person did not have any Qi on him, could it be that he did not have any martial power?

After the Hundred Clan War ended, the fighting spirit was strong, everyone pursued the martial arts, all the famous people knew a few martial skills, and those who were weak would only be looked down upon, if this person really had a background, how could he not have any martial skills?

"May I know who this person is?"

"I am Xihong's good friend, Jia Junyan. I work as a broker." Wen Qubing laughed: "I've heard that all of the small matters within the capital are controlled by Gao Family. I believe Brother Gao should know a thing or two about the products within the Auction that will be held in the black market soon."

"This …"

On the surface, the dark market in Xu City was controlled by local gangs. In fact, without the permission of Gao Family, which gangster could survive in Xu City? Not only was there a portion of the operating income from the dark market Gao Family, it was also a large portion.

This kind of thing was naturally hard to admit to in person. However, the other party was not someone who could be flippant with words, and since he intended to form a relationship with them, if he played dumb on this topic, the atmosphere would become awkward …

With his new hesitation, Wen Qubing saw through everything. Wen Qubing shot Wen Xihong a look, and the latter immediately cooperated, laughing: "Brother Gao, this good friend of mine, represents a great figure of the county, specially travelling to various places to purchase treasures. This time, I heard that there are treasures in Xu Du, so I came over specially to find out about them.

"..." "So that's how it is."

For example, the top clans, big sects, and sects, they indeed had their own special buyers who roamed everywhere. There were also some brokers who took the initiative to search for treasures, and when they found out the news, they would send the information back to the employer behind them, giving them money to take for them. If this Jia family was a professional broker, it would be normal for them to inquire about this.

"Speaking of tomorrow night's Auction, what would be able to attract your attention would be the remnant of Nine Yin, right?" Gao Ruxin gave a wry smile and said, "I also thought that it was just a gimmick by the merchants, so I didn't think much of it. I only found out that it was indeed a little strange when I asked them about it two days ago …" It's hard to tell if that fragment is real or fake. I also feel that if it was the real deal, we would earn much more from taking it to the capital city or capital city. There's no reason for us to come to this auction, but … It is indeed not a homemade gang, but a consignment. "

"Selling?" Wen Qubing smiled, "What kind of consignment? "Where did it come from?"

"I can't tell you the details, but it was commissioned by a Thief."

It was a little over a month ago morning when Gao Ruxin had mentioned this miraculous event. Someone was lying on the ground at the entrance of the Auction, taking out an oily paper package from his chest.

"..." "After an autopsy, the gang found out that he died from poison and found out his identity. He was the famous Gui Jianxue from outside the Xudu City, Situ Que …"

"Situ Bu Kong? Was it him? He … He's dead? "

Wen Qubing was also surprised, but Wen Xihong, who was at the side, clearly understood why the Patriarch had such an expression.

The reason why he was nicknamed "Gui Jianxue" wasn't because he had any sort of amazing art, but because he specialized in digging graves and stealing tombs. If the person who came to auction was him, then it was reasonable to assume that he found something in the process of stealing tombs, but was also poisoned to the point where he used his last breath to deliver the thing. Unfortunately, he died from the poison …

Of course, they couldn't rule out the possibility of someone else being involved in the auction, being killed by some kind of gang or Gao Family after receiving such a heavy injury. This guy relied on digging into people's ancestors' graves to survive, his enemies filled the world, and it wasn't strange for him to be killed at any time or place.

This information did not have much meaning to others, but to Wen Qubing, it was enough. Nodding his head, Gao Ru Xin revealed a face of regret, indicating that if he had known that a friend was interested, he would have tried to record the fragment and pass it on to her as a gift. It was already too late, what a pity.

Gao Ru Xin was interested in Wen Qubing, so he used this opportunity to probe, "The Brother Jia's Qi is special, I wonder which clan does it belong to?"

"Haha, in this world, there are more martial arts."

Wen Qubing laughed and took the initiative to stretch out his arm. He stretched his arm out in front of Gao Ruxin with an unguarded action, surprised and uncertain, and in the end, unable to hold back his curiosity, he lifted his hand to feel his pulse.

"How, how could this be?"

As far as the tentacles could reach, Gao Ruxin had discovered that this person's meridians were breaking inch by inch. Not to mention that he couldn't cultivate martial arts nor awaken his bloodline, he should have long been a dead man.

"..." "Are you surprised?" Wen Qubing smiled and said, "Recently, the trend of those trash who have been rejected from the marriage ceremony has been unrestrained, so there's no need to be surprised."

"The actions of the Brother Jia's experts are profound and unfathomable. Admiration, admiration."

Looking at Jia Junyan, it was as if he was looking at a ghost. Wen Qubing laughed out loud, retracted his arm, and began to urge them to drink and argue. He had intended to pass the banquet just like that, but unexpectedly, things had changed again.

In the beginning, Wen Xihong had purposely talked about it, asking about Gao Ruxin's Third Brother, who had been led by the opposite party with a bitter smile on his face, to say that he didn't know what Third Brother Gao Rui was doing?

According to the information that Wen Qubing had seen before, this third young master Gao Family didn't have the ability of his eldest brother and second brother, but was known as a playboy. Relying on the shadow of the Gao Family, he made up for his lack of government authority by bullying men and bullying women in the city, which brought about a lot of controversy.

"Actually, what I meant was that people don't flirt with youths. Third Young Master is nothing more than a debauchee. He's nothing out of the ordinary. Those self-righteous and conceited people are what I hate the most …"

What the hell? Wen Xihong took advantage of the booze and displayed the attitude of standing on the same side as his Gao Family, Gao Ru Xin was also moved, showing that those scholars did not know what to say, but in reality, they did not follow the decree of the State. They were playing tricks on the people, and Xu Du had dealt with a few extremely huge cases of corruption.

"..." "Since we're all from Xudu, we don't want to kill too many people. We just want to deprive the citizens of their rights and sell them as slaves or prostitutes, leaving them with an opportunity to reform and work for the country. Sigh, this is too virtuous …"

Gao Ruxin sighed and said, "This is the business of your firm. It just so happens that we can purchase some good quality goods to help them become the nation's people."

"Naturally!"

Wen Xihong laughed out loud. He raised his cup and toasted, but looked at the patriarch. The scene at the city gate yesterday was now more or less answered. What were his thoughts?

Wen Qubing remained indifferent, as if he did not hear anything. However, Gao Rui suddenly said, "Ah, I forgot to say, one of those girls had already been taken down by someone. At that time, please do not take action, otherwise … At any time. "
