Chapter 764: Gods Bestow Festival


    The tracking has failed? The VIP token has been left in the Nangong ns merchant association?


    Behind the Situ Merchant Association, there was a giant castleplex, and it was filled up with rows of imposing castles. Right now, in thergest castle was a refined and imperious-looking middle-aged man in brown robes who was seated in the study room. He was facing a middle-aged supervisor who was the auction houses Situ Hong.


    n Head! This one is useless in handling things. Please punish me.


    Situ Hong took a careful look at the emotionless brown-robed man. This middle-aged man didnt have an ordinary status as he was the Situ n Head, Situ Ao.


    The major and minor ns of the Gods Bestow Tribe were all the same. The old elders would seldom meddle with the affairs and would only step in if the matter was rted to the survival of the n. The rest of the matters would be all handled by the n Head.


    After Situ Yang gave the orders, Situ Hong immediately sent someone to track Qian Wanguan. Who knew that Qian Wanguan was a veteran? After circling several merchant associations, he actually got rid of their elite scouts and had thrown the VIP token in the Nangong ns merchant association. That token had the Situ ns unique seal which could be tracked down by the Situ ns members.


    When Situ Hong saw that Situ Ao didnt say a thing, his eyes flicked as he bowed to seek for approval. n Head, do you want to activate the secret team to investigate? Yang Lao said that this person must be recruited with haste.


    You know nothing! The secret team must not be touched!


    Situ Ao took an indifferent nce at Situ Hong and said, If we use the secret team and the opposition detects it, it will just create a misunderstanding. The Gods Bestow Festival is going to be held three dayster. The seller will definitelye to im the celestial stones. Get Yixiao to personally make contact and tell Yixiao to put on a good attitude. All conditions can be negotiated, and even if we cannot recruit the person, we still must establish a good rtionship.


    Young Master Yixiao?


    Situ Hong nodded. Situ Yixiao was the Situ ns no.1 young master, a true nobility and one of the top ss young masters of the Gods Bestow Tribe. If Situ Yixiao was to personally conduct the recruitment, it would amply express Situ ns sincerity. Let alone a mere artist, even a peak-stage Heaven Monarch would be utterly grateful, right?


    Boss, you are too incredible.


    When Qian Wanguan returned to the courtyard, Jiang Yi teleported him into the Thearch Pce; and Jiang Yi used his Divine Perception to check the surrounding situation. When he noticed that no one was tracking Qian Wanguan after 15 minutes, he opened his eyes and smiled. Wanguan, what is the situation?


    Very good. The three paintings will probably sell for a huge sum. We will only know the exact value after they are auctioned off three dayster.


    Qian Wanguan had exined all the details to everyone. Feng Luan and Qing Yu were silently feeling regretful as they were reluctant to part with the three paintings. Such Heaven Paintings that had a special intent werent so easily painted. Jiang Yi might never be able to produce such paintings in this lifetime again.


    After hearing that it would be auctioned out in the annual Gods Bestow Festival three dayster, everyone was secretly getting excited. Not only were they expectant on how much the three paintings would be sold for, but everyone also didnt have to worry about not having sufficient celestial stones in the future. They earnestly hoped that the paintings would be sold to influential figures and that the fame of these three paintings would be circted throughout Sin Ind. Through the help of the hidden East Imperial Continents merchants, it would be circted to the East Imperial Continent, which would allow Yi Piaopiaos name to be renowned throughout the entire East Imperial Continent!


    Of course shopping was a womans nature, causing Feng Luan, Qing Yu, and Jiang Xiaonus hearts to be throbbing as they hoped to be able to attend the live auction. Even if they couldnt buy anything, they would still have the chance to see the worlds top ss and rare treasures. They wouldnt havee to the Gods Bestow City in vain.


    They knew clearly that it was dangerous to appear in public, and it was even more dangerous to attend the auction. Lu Lin and the Hong and Li ns might be here, which would expose them immediately.


    Wanguan and I will make a trip three dayster!


    Jiang Yi muttered for a moment and said, You will stay inside the Thearch Pce. If the auction is a safe ce, I will teleport all of you out.


    Alright, alright! Qing Yu pped her hands excitedly as she truly wanted to know what kind of sky-high price the paintings would sell for.


    Young Master, this


    Feng Luan hesitated and asked, Wouldnt it be too dangerous?


    There is nothing dangerous!


    Jiang Yi shook his hand and said, If the Gods Bestow City isnt safe, it wouldnt matter if we go in public or not. These three paintings are already enough to expose us. If we dont sell paintings we will not be able to continue staying in this city. You are underestimating the capability of the great ns. If the Situ n truly wanted to track us, we would already be exposed. We can only hope that the four major ns wouldnt make a move in the city.


    If the four major ns wouldnt make a move, it would mean that the Lu nwhich had a weaker strength in Gods Bestow Citywouldnt dare to make a move either. Even if Lu Lin was to trace them to this ce, what could he do to them if they didnt leave the city?


    These three paintings had an important significance to Jiang Yi, and he naturally wanted to see who the final bidders to buy them were. Hence, he made a decision to go out for a trip.


    When Jiang Yi had decided on something, the others normally wouldnt oppose it. Qian Wanguan went out again as he was preparing to go around the ck market to spend some celestial stones to check out the situation in Gods Bestow City. Otherwise, he was afraid they might die without knowing what happened.


    With the arrival of the Gods Bestow Festival, the entire Gods Bestow City had got livelier!


    The Gods Bestow Festival was the grandest festival of the Gods Bestow Tribe as it was the day that the Great Emperor Nangong had put up the Nine Dragons God Extinguishing Array. Without this great array, the Gods Bestow Tribe would have ceased to exist. Hence, on this day, all the ns in the Gods Bestow Tribe would hurry to the Gods Bestow City to make a tribute to the Great Emperor Nangong.


    Five days before and after the Gods Bestow Festival, the Gods Bestow Ind had forbidden all use of martial forcenot only in the city. If there was anyone spotted to be acting violently outside the city, the four major ns would definitely chase the criminals to their deaths.


    On the day of the Gods Bestow Festival, the entire city could be opened for ess, and there wouldnt be any curfew during nighttime. All the massive inns of the four merchant associations would also provide free food and drinks as they hosted a city-wide celebration.


    When Qian Wanguan brought back the information, Jiang Yi and the others were even more rxed. It meant that during the Gods Bestow Festival, there would be a frightening number of martial artists; and when they blend into the crowd, they wouldnt even produce a small bubble.


    The auction would only start at nightfall, and in order to enter, they had to hand over earnest money. Qian Wanguan had just handed over 100 million celestial stones as earnest money and obtained a small pavilion which no one would be able to scout in from the outside.


    Jiang Yi decided immediately that on the day of the Gods Bestow Festival, everyone would attend the auction, with disguises without a doubt. At the same time, they would use the Illusion Moon Stones to alter their appearances as well.


    Three days passed in an instant, and the Gods Bestow Festival had arrived!


    Swish! Swish!


    Before the sky was even bright, countless Heaven Fate Ships arrived outside the city gates of Gods Bestow City, sending groups of people from various ns into the city. In just two hours, there were a hundred Heaven Fate Ships that arrived, bringing out close to one million people.


    Swish! Swish! Swish!


    Concurrently, countless bandits outside the Gods Bestow Ind had also flocked into the city from the four city gates. The city was free to enter for today, and many of the bandit legions naturally wanted to enter the city to enjoy and purchase some treasures and daily necessities while scouting for information.


    In just a morning, the number of people in the city had increased by more than ten million, and more people were stilling into the city. During sunset, the five zas of the city were filled with people and so were the countless inns of the merchant associations. Jiang Yi and his group had just exited and were shocked by the densely packed crowd.


    The sky is almost dark, and the Gods Bestow Ceremony will begin soon. Lets go take a look at the Gods Bestow za, and we will enter the auction house immediately after the ceremony.


    Qian Wanguan beckoned his hand and led everyone in a low-profile as they made haste towards the Gods Bestow za in the center of the city.
