Chapter 989 – The Red String of Three Lifetimes

In the beginning, Qin Nan had not really felt a sense of belonging at the Dragon Emperor Clan, but after learning of the kindness of the Monarch Beasts toward him and everything that had occurred at the Dragon Emperor Clan, he had seen himself as a part of the faction.

As such, the flames of anger exploded in Qin Nan’s chest.

“Mister, this…” Xu Guozheng was shocked. It did not matter how much Qin Nan was bidding, as he could acquire five of the items for free with the Five Dragons Badge.

However, did he really want to waste the chance on a Merciless Silk?

Sima Kong smiled without interfering.

If he were in his shoes, he would become enraged as well.

Sometimes, it would feel like the things one did would not necessarily result in the most profitable outcome, but one still had to do it.

Earning profits was not the only reason one lived for, but most importantly, to live without regrets.

“Senior, I’m not sure how I’ve offended you, please forgive me. I will buy the Merciless Silk with one million Monarch Crystals and gift it to you as an apology.” Huo Wulong swiftly said.

According to his speculation, it was possible that he had made the senior angry due to his scornful attitude, thus he immediately lowered his stance.

Even though he was a son of Martial Monarch, he would not dare to offend a Martial Monarch.

“It’s fine, just give it to the lady of the Dragon Emperor Clan.” Qin Nan’s voice remained cold as usual.

“Err…sure.” Huo Wulong quickly nodded.

The crowd gasped, before they fixed their gaze onto the seventh floor.

“A Martial Monarch!”

“I never thought the auction would attract a Martial Monarch Realm expert!”

“No wonder Huo Wulong is willing to compromise!”

“Thank you, senior!” Ao Dongfang, Su Qingqing and the others expressed their gratitude after collecting their thoughts.

“Thank you, senior. Is it possible to know your name? I will surely repay your kindness if I have the chance.” Mu Mu brought her fists together as her eyes flickered with doubts.

Why would the Martial Monarch Realm expert on the seventh floor help her?

“It’s fine. I did it because of my relationship with the Dragon Emperor Clan.” Qin Nan calmly said.

The crowd came to a realization.

Huo Wulong’s expression became gloomy, as he never thought he would offend the Martial Monarch Realm expert because of the Dragon Emperor Clan.

Mu Mu was startled. For some reason, she felt like she knew the person.

Could it be…

A young man’s figure popped up in her mind, causing her to shake her head rapidly.

How was it possible that Qin Nan was on the seventh floor?

It was not him.

In the room on the seventh floor, Sima Kong winked at Qin Nan and said, “Yo, why did you change your voice? Just let them recognize it. How fun would it be watching the shock on their faces?”

Qin Nan rolled his eyes, ignoring his presence.

The auction continued as the remaining items were presented after the interlude.

The items being auctioned were significantly better than the ones before, with three rare treasures capable of altering one’s destiny, resulting in a great competition between the various factions.

“The next item consists of one hundred objects, each unique in its own way. Basically, it is difficult to destroy them with external force, and it’s unclear where they have come from. Each object is priced at ten thousand Monarch Crystals, with a twenty percent discount if anyone is interested in buying them all.”

The old silver-haired man waved his hand.

Ancient objects including fragmented metal, maps stained with blood, broken swords, etc. were brought up to the stage. None of them seemed to possess any energy, thus they were considered useless.

The crowd immediately inspected them with curiosity.

It was quite common for people to find some shocking rare artifacts among junk like this!

Qin Nan quickly scanned the objects and withdrew his gaze after not finding anything special. However, both the copper mirror and the golden seal slightly shuddered in his mind.

“Mm?” Qin Nan was astounded.

Did that mean there was something similar to the copper mirror and golden seal within the pile of ancient artifacts?

“The red string?” Qin Nan took another scan and found a red string with a dim glow that grabbed his attention, as its aura was similar to the copper mirror and the golden seal.

“I’ll take them all!”

Qin Nan said without hesitation.

Both the copper mirror and the golden seal were related to the mysterious woman, each possessing extraordinary power, thus there was no way he would miss the chance to secure the red string.

“The bearer of the Five Dragons Badge is taking all of them.” Xu Guozheng declared.

The crowd was shocked, before their faces were filled with a hint of unwillingness. There must be something shocking among them since the Martial Monarch Realm expert was interested in claiming them.

“Qin Nan, what have you found?” Sima Kong asked. He knew that Qin Nan had surely found something incredible.

“I’ll tell you later.”

Qin Nan shook his head.

Little did he know that as he made his decision to secure the rare artifacts, the copper mirror and golden seal began to emit a faint glow, revealing two mysterious symbols.

Following this, the auction carried on with the remaining items.

The authorities on the sixth-floor finally ran out of patience and bid with shocking numbers.

Qin Nan had let Sima Kong decide the rest of the items.

“The Flower of Reincarnation, extremely precious, containing the power of reincarnation. It’s said to be able to communicate with the six divisions on the wheel of karma. Starting at one million Monarch Crystals!”

“Five million Monarch Crystals!” The Crow-Wheel King of Law said.

“Six million!” The White-Haired Wine Immortal participated too.

“I’ll take it!” Sima Kong yelled with a joyful tone.

“…” The authorities were left speechless.

“A Ten Thousand Age Blood Ginseng, a rare find. The bid starts at nine hundred thousand Monarch Crystals!”

“It’s mine!” It’s Sima Kong again.

“…” The crowd fell silent once again.

Sima Kong had used the remaining four chances to secure valuable items that many authorities were competing with one another for.

In the end, the Crow-Wheel King of Law, the White-Haired Wine Immortal, and the rest felt utterly troubled.

They would not attend the auction if they knew a Martial Monarch Realm expert would be here, as everything they set their eyes on were taken away.

The five chances granted by the Five Dragons Badge was too unfair!

“First Elder, could you please bring the items over, we’ll be leaving now.” After using all of their chances, there was no reason for Qin Nan and Sima Kong to stay any further.

“Sure!” Xu Guozheng nodded and soon gave them five storage bags.

“Let’s go.”

As the auction continued, Qin Nan and Sima Kong left the place silently without grabbing anyone’s attention and returned to their inn.

“Nice! That felt so great. The Five Dragons Badge is insane…” Sima Kong yelled with excitement as they arrived at the inn.

Four valuable items!

They could easily exchange them with something precious at the Yellow Spring Shop!

Qin Nan picked up the storage bag and took out the red string. He inspected it closely.

“So that’s the thing that you’re interested in? Nothing special.” Sima Kong went up to him.

As soon as he finished his sentence, the red string suddenly coiled around Qin Nan’s wrist into a bracelet as if it had come alive.

“Mm?” Qin Nan frowned as he tried to remove it.

To his surprise, despite his cultivation, he was unable to move the bracelet at all, as if it had combined with his body.

“Mm, strange, let me have a try.” The Emperor of Thieves’ Seal appeared from Sima Kong’s forehead.

Before he could react, the red string suddenly emitted three white glows.

The icy voice of the mysterious woman in the copper mirror exploded in Qin Nan’s mind.

“Give up….or continue?”

For once, her tone was filled with a hint of hesitation.
