Peerless Little Immortal Doctor

Chapter 395: Chapter 395: The Powerful Ye Family, The Mysterious Ye Xuan

Additionally, Ouyang Lingtian also informed Xia Liu of some news, the true identity of Ye Xuan.

The beloved pearl of the Ye Family, one of the four great Ancient Martial families in Yanjing!

If this were in ancient times, she would be considered a personage of Commandery Princess status.

Xia Liu had no interest in understanding the other three great Ancient Martial families that were on par with the Ye Family.

Regarding this, he asked Ouyang Lingtian about the details of the Ye Family.

“The Ye Family is the only Ancient Martial family that does not hold official positions in the Huaxia sector, but no one dares to provoke this family because their foundation is incredibly strong, owning trading businesses all across the country.”@@novelbin@@

“So, all these trading houses belong to the Ye Family!” Upon hearing this news, Xia Liu was somewhat tongue-tied.

The wealth within these trading houses can be said to be endless, and if they all belonged to the Ye Family, that would be incredible.

“Of course, the goods are owned by the shopkeepers, and the Ye Family is like a landlord. They do not charge any store fees, but whenever a shop sells something, they take five percent of the funds.”

“That’s somewhat terrifying, too. With Warrior Traders Guilds in busy locations, the daily turnover could reach tens of billions or even hundreds of billions. The Ye Family really knows how to make money!”

Xia Liu roughly calculated it in his head and decided not to continue; this method and speed of making money were simply astonishing.

“What’s frightening is that no one knows exactly how many Earth-Rank Warriors or Heaven Rank…” Ouyang Lingtian didn’t finish his sentence. Heaven-Rank Warriors, looking back over a hundred years, have almost never appeared.

Such Rank warriors certainly do not die easily—it’s a mystery why they haven’t appeared.

“Indeed powerful. It seems the key reason you are unwilling to comply with Ye Xuan lies here,” Xia Liu said with a smile.

Ouyang Lingtian’s family might be at the peak of existence in the Secular World, but in front of the ancient foundation of the Ye Family, they are as weak as ants.

“Heh, I received an insider tip that even the current Family Head of the Ye Family concedes to Ye Xuan, so her identity is not as simple as just being the Ye Family Princess,” Ouyang Lingtian shared with Xia Liu the news he learned from the teahouse Little Er.

“Oh, now that’s interesting, to be more powerful than the current Ye Family Head.” Xia Liu was puzzled but believed that Ouyang Lingtian still had a chance, considering he was a Cultivator!

“Ah, forget about her, let’s pack up and head out so we don’t miss the auction.”

…

At eight-thirty in the morning, in the suburban industrial area, Ouyang Lingtian parked the car and led Xia Liu into the auction venue.

Although it was early, the auction site had already gathered quite a number of people.

Most of them were young faces, some of whom were sitting alone in their seats, cultivating with their eyes closed.

Others were making new friends, a few people gathering in one place to chat.

Xia Liu briefly scanned the entire venue, and apart from the two Earth-Rank Warriors standing on stage, there were no other Earth-Rank Warriors present.

The setup of the auction was like that of a common stage venue, with chairs placed around the stage.

Each chair had a sign and a screen; the screen was used for bidding, while the sign was to confirm seating arrangements.

Xia Liu and Ouyang Lingtian casually chose a spot and sat down.

In the next half-hour, many warriors trickled into the auction house.

At least three hundred warriors came in, with over a hundred of them having reached Earth Rank in their cultivation.

Such a display could only hint at the drawing power of the auction for Earth-Rank Warriors.

Most of these Earth-Rank Warriors were middle-aged or older, the majority of them having the youthful appearance of old men.

Ordinary people of such age might be lying on a chair listening to the radio.

But they couldn’t afford to do that—they were Earth-Rank Warriors, and if they wanted to keep living, they needed to break through to Heaven-Rank Warrior.

Rumor has it, Heaven-Rank Warriors possess two hundred years of longevity.

This rumor was known throughout the Warrior Realm, but no one had come forth to clarify its authenticity.

After all, no Heaven-Rank Warrior had emerged for a century.

As an Earth-Rank Warrior entered the scene, the once noisy auction house promptly fell silent.

Everyone knew that these older Earth-Rank Warriors had quirky tempers.

If one inadvertently offended them, one’s life might be forfeited after leaving this place.

At around nine thirty, the auction house’s main doors closed on schedule.

The lights brightened the entire venue, and by now the number of Earth-Rank Warriors on stage had reached five.

They were all fully armed, donning black headscarves that masked their faces, revealing only a pair of discerning eyes.

“They are all Earth-Rank Warriors from the Ye Family, maintaining order throughout the venue.”

“I’ve already figured that out,” Xia Liu responded with a wry smile.

Ouyang Lingtian gave Xia Liu a sidelong glance, feeling that he had become redundant.

Nevertheless, that was just fine, for Xia Liu remained unfazed, even by the presence of over a hundred Earth-Rank Warriors. Perhaps there would be a chance to purchase the Condensing Energy Grass later on.

Ouyang Lingtian harbored this flicker of hope because the Condensing Energy Grass was only effective for Yellow-Rank Warriors.

Perhaps Earth-Rank Warriors wouldn’t even spare it a glance.

Previously at the Heaven Slaying Base, he had seen Xia Liu face off against his master, and without the intervention of Earth-Rank Warriors.

Even enmity with a common Mysterious Rank Warrior was inconsequential—the strongest ruled!

Dong…

A short while after the main doors closed, a loud bell suddenly resounded throughout the venue.

Those warriors familiar with the auction rules understood that this bell signified the start of the auction event!

As the bell ceased to echo, the red curtains on the stage slowly parted to reveal an enchanting figure emerging from within.

She was dressed in a purple short robe, with a bold design featuring an ample opening at the front that swayed with each step she took.

A strip of purple fabric elegantly split from the legs, with a piece of black lace tied around one thigh.

This woman was none other than Ye Xuan!

Ye Xuan’s appearance immediately captured everyone’s gaze.

All who gazed upon her had eyes that shone; this woman was not just beautiful, but her current attire was irresistibly alluring.

Two strands of hair cascaded down from her shoulders to her chest, with two cute loops tied atop her head.

Some of the younger onlookers nearly drooled at the sight.

Even Ouyang Lingtian was no exception.

“Tsk, tsk, your expression betrays you. Here’s a piece of advice: if you get the chance, take her, and you’ll become one of the administrators of the Warrior Traders Guild. It’ll make things much more convenient for me the next time I come here to make purchases.”

“Knock it off; she’s out of my league,” Ouyang Lingtian retorted with a glare at Xia Liu, realizing that his instigation was purely for his own convenience for future transactions at the auction house.

“Ahem, good evening, everyone. It’s my pleasure to host this month’s bidding event again. I hope for your generous support,” Ye Xuan announced from the stage.

Although Ye Xuan did not use a microphone, her voice was still crystal clear and audible in every corner.

The Earth-Rank Warriors seated in the front row, familiar with the bidding rituals even without having participated, swiftly urged Ye Xuan to start.
