Chapter 1244: Chapter 609: The Auction Ends, The Luo Family’s Earnings_2

They all knew that this young man was surely an extraordinarily formidable figure.

Moreover, his background and strength were unquestionably beyond their imagination.

...

After the young man departed, the auctioneer immediately announced the conclusion of the auction.

As the auction came to an end, the crowd began leaving the auction house one after another.

However, before leaving, they couldn’t help but glance back at the auction stage, where the curtains had already fallen.

It was there that the rare and precious Gold Source Divine Pearl had once been displayed.

By now, the Gold Source Divine Pearl had fallen into the hands of that young man.

This left everyone feeling a tinge of regret and lamentation.

After all, such a precious treasure had slipped through their grasp just like that.

Still, they understood that everything was the result of destiny’s arrangements.

They simply lacked the strength and fortune needed to possess such a treasure.

As the crowd left the auction house, the young man and the woman in red also stepped outside.

Standing on the bustling street, they gazed at the throng of people, faint smiles gracing their faces.

"Young Master, your acquisition of the Gold Source Divine Pearl this time was truly a grand move," the woman in red said with a smile as she looked at the young man.

Hearing this, the young man also smiled faintly and replied, "It’s just a trinket, barely worth calling a grand move."

As his words fell, the woman in red paused, momentarily stunned.

She hadn’t expected this young man to be so dismissive of such a treasure.

After all, the Gold Source Divine Pearl was an extremely rare and precious artifact!

And yet, this young man had not only acquired it with such ease but also referred to it so casually as a "trinket."

This left her somewhat shocked and amazed.

Still, she refrained from asking further questions.

After all, she understood her position as merely a servant to this young man.

She had no right to pry into his affairs.

Moreover, she could sense that this young man possessed immense strength and an extraordinary background.

Her role was simply to carry out her duties diligently.

...

After the young man and the woman in red left, all of Qingshi City began spreading tales of the grand auction.

Many expressed their admiration for the young man’s strength and financial prowess.

To be able to acquire the Gold Source Divine Pearl for three thousand Spirit Stones spoke volumes about his power and background.

And everyone knew that this young man was someone they absolutely could not afford to offend.

As a result, in the days that followed, Qingshi City’s major factions sent envoys to visit the young man.

They hoped to forge a connection with him.

After all, establishing ties with such a powerful figure would undoubtedly be to their great advantage.

In response to these visits, the young man received each individual courteously.

He didn’t display any sort of arrogance.

On the contrary, he treated everyone with remarkable politeness and friendliness.

This led those who met him to have an increasingly favorable impression of him.

They all realized that this young man was absolutely someone worth befriending.

Soon after, the young man left Qingshi City.

Having obtained the crowning piece of the auction, staying in one place for too long was certainly unwise for him.

What if someone harbored thoughts of murder and theft?

That would ruin everything.

...

Within Qingshi City, inside the Luo Family Ancestral Land.

In the chamber of the Luo Family Patriarch.

The current Patriarch of the Luo Family, Luo Ping, sat silently at the head seat, perusing a ledger in his hand.

At this moment, he seemed to be calculating the earnings from the auction.

Meanwhile, Luo Yao, seated next to Luo Ping, was sipping hot tea while quietly gazing out the window.

"Patriarch, what do you think?"

"Did the earnings from this auction surpass those of previous editions?"

In the chamber, a member of the Luo Family’s Brain Trust couldn’t help but ask aloud.

"Hmm, indeed there has been an improvement," Luo Ping replied, gently setting down the ledger in his hand, his satisfied smile directed at those below.

"During this auction, our Luo Family successfully sold numerous treasures, and the final bid prices exceeded our expectations."

As Luo Ping’s words landed, relief spread across the faces of those present.

After all, this auction had been an endeavor into which the Luo Family had poured immense effort.

To have achieved such results naturally filled them with great joy.

But just then, Luo Ping suddenly shifted the topic, saying, "However, do you all know what our Luo Family’s greatest gain from this auction was?"

Hearing this, the individuals below paused, dumbfounded.

They exchanged uncertain glances, each shaking their head in confusion.

They had no idea why Luo Ping would ask such a question.

Seeing their expressions, Luo Ping chuckled softly and said, "Our greatest gain was successfully forging ties with that young master."

As his words fell, astonishment flickered across the faces of those present.

They hadn’t expected Luo Ping to say something like this.

After all, in their view, although the powerful young master seemed formidable, he didn’t appear to have much connection with the Luo Family.

Yet Luo Ping valued him so highly, leaving them puzzled.

Still, they didn’t voice their doubts.

After all, they understood that Luo Ping was an exceptionally wise and farsighted leader.

His actions surely had their reasons.

Thus, they silently listened as Luo Ping continued speaking.

And Luo Ping said, "Do not underestimate this young master.

His strength is beyond our comprehension.

Moreover, his background and identity are far beyond what we can imagine.

If we can establish ties with him, it would bring immense benefits to our Luo Family."

As Luo Ping’s words settled, those below sank into silent reflection.

They all recognized Luo Ping as an exceptionally farsighted leader.

His insights surely carried weight.

As a result, they began reassessing their opinions of the mysterious young master.

...

While the Luo Family deliberated, the young man and the woman in red had already left Qingshi City.

After departing the city, they headed directly towards the depths of the Endless Mountains.

Their destination was a Secret Realm hidden within the Endless Mountains.

And their goal was naturally the treasures rumored to reside within that Secret Realm.

...

Outside Qingshi City, upon the summit of a mountain.

A lone figure stood quietly atop the mountain’s peak, overlooking the city below.

Clad in elegant azure robes, his visage was strikingly handsome, his aura otherworldly.

He was none other than the young man who had acquired the Gold Source Divine Pearl at the auction.

At this moment, he gazed silently at Qingshi City below, a faint contemplative glimmer in his eyes.

Beside him, the woman in red regarded him with curiosity before asking, "Young Master, where are we headed next?"

Hearing her question, the young man smiled faintly and replied, "To the Secret Realm deep within the Endless Mountains."

As his words fell, the woman in red showed a hint of astonishment.

She hadn’t expected the young man to plan a journey into the depths of the Endless Mountains’ Secret Realm.

After all, the Secret Realm within the Endless Mountains was reputed to be exceedingly dangerous and enigmatic.

Many had attempted to venture there in search of treasures, only to return empty-handed; some had even lost their lives in the attempt.

Thus, upon hearing the young man’s words, she couldn’t help but feel a trace of unease.

Still, she refrained from saying much.

After all, she understood that the young man’s strength and background were incomparably formidable.

Since he had resolved to explore the Secret Realm, he surely had his own plans and arrangements.

Thus, she silently followed behind the young man, preparing to accompany him into the depths of the Secret Realm.
