The Ancient Rare Phoenix: Colourful Flames - Chapter 42
Outside the Auction
The mid-aged woman anxiously ran along with the teen girls on her both hands. Once she found the inn where they had been staying. She hastily entered the inn before long she was already inside the room.
She quickly took out a pill bottle from her sleeves and feeding it to the girl in a blue veil. It was the Rejuvenate: Mid Rank 6 Origin Mortal Grade Pill. Once the effect of the pill started to circulated, the girl in a blue veil started to recover from her injuries leaving behind no scars.
The mid-aged woman finally sighed in relief and relaxed her breathing before taking them out again. After she blew a whistle, a huge Silvery Blue Butterfly flew down and floated above her head. She and the girls hopped on the back before it started to fly away from the Snow Silk City.
All these while, both girls didn’t ask anything to the mid-aged woman. Once they left out of the city, the girl in a blue veil confusedly looked at the mid-aged woman before suspiciously asking her.
” Aunt Meimei, Why are we leaving in a hurry? Also why didn’t you beat that child for us? ”
Aunt Meimei just stared ahead and said seriously.
” Little girls, do not ask anything and just forget about everything happened today. Both of the child and the lady, the whole auction house, even the Snow Silk City, We have never been here at all if anyone ask you from today on. However do remember never to think yourself too high and underestimate others. ”
Both the girls nodded their head in agreement seeing their aunt’s serious expression.
As for aunt Meimei, she was deeply thinking and pondering about it. She knew what that sword represents if someone holds it however she was still confused.
15 years ago, she entered the Royal Treasure Vault with her sister, she had seen the sword there and really wanted to get it for herself. But her sister told only the female genius of the Royal family can take that sword, since then no one has taken it, not even Princess Cui Ci. However someone was now already wielding that sword and protecting a child. She just couldn’t remember seeing the lady nor the child in the Imperial Palace City.
She shook her head and stopped thinking as there was already enough tension building at the Imperial Palace City due to news of the supposedly deceased Empress Bing returning back alive. So she could only guess them as Royal prince and princess secretly nurtured by the Royal family.
She just sighed and hope to safely return back to her clan soon.
Meanwhile, outside the auction house, an old-man and a mid-aged man were worriedly and nervously entered through the gate. They were Zhang Ren and Zhang Guyun from Zhang Clan, grandfather and father of Zhang Yang.
Once they heard Zhang Yang was captured inside the auction house, they came over knowing that Zhang Yang have offended someone powerful if even Blood Fang Auction House let them to act inside the auction building.
They didn’t even need to guess how Zhang Yang offended them as he was well known as number one lecherous young master in the entire city.
At the same time, Hou was leisurely sipping his tea at his spot while merely glancing around.
As for the rest of people in the area, they were just anxiously waiting for him to call them over and quickly let them leave.
Soon the 2 figures entered the hall and looked around like searching for something before sprinting toward them.
When the terrified mummy saw them, he thought his prayers were heard and sent them as his hope of light for his rescue.
When both the figures entered the seating area no.50, they saw a child sipping tea and everyone around him were warily looking at him. Both of them thought he was the one. As for these 2 figures, they were Zhang Ren and Zhang Guyun.
Zhang Ren looked at Hou before kneeling and nervously saying.
” Young master, I’d like to apologize to you for any offense done by my grandson. I beg your forgiveness and ask to let my grandson leave. I promise you from today on I’ll discipline him properly. ”
Hou turned his head toward the old man and just blink his eyes once.
Seeing that, Zhang Ren thought without paying high compensation to him, he wouldn’t be able to get his grandson back. Zhang Ren offered.
” young master, As for offending you, I would like to compensate anything as long as it is within my limit. ”
Hou just blinked his eyes twice while both eyes were shinning slowly.
Zhang Ren looked at him intensely before his both eyes turned red and asked in a stuttering voice.
” Young master, Is my grandson still alive? ”
Hearing that, Hou was startled then sighed in disappointment since he was expecting to be a free meat pie. Turning his head at Fatty Bo, he gave a questioning look.
Noticing his gaze, Fatty Bo helplessly moved his eyes at the terrified mummy.
Both Zhang Ren and Zhang Guyun froze when they saw the terrified mummy, however, they also felt relieved as it was moving and twitching in pain.
Knowing that they came for the terrified mummy, Hou just lost his interest and started to sip his tea again while he casually said.
” Fatty Bo, 10,000,000 gold will be handled by that mummy over there as he had promised to pay for any of the bid that I win. ”
This time, everyone were stupefied and dumbfounded while Zhang Ren and Zhang Guyun stiffed and stared at the terrified mummy with their eyes wide open.
As for the terrified mummy, when he saw his grandfather and father staring at him, he thought they would just leave him here without saying anything.
Zhang Ren quickly recovered and saw his grandson giving a pleading look with misty eyes at them.
Zhang Ren shook his head and hurriedly came in front Hou before fishing out a old tattered scroll map and anxiously said.
” Young master, this old tattered scroll map is the treasure map which our clan had recently found. I would like to give it to you as remuneration for the auction house. ”
Hou grabbed the scroll and flipped it over. Once he saw few marking around the fruit, he happily nodded his head.
Seeing that, Zhang Ren sighed in relief and bowed at him. After that, grabbing the terrified mummy, he speedily left with Zhang Guyun without even looking back.
