Han Wuxin was interested in Whitey as well. Not only him, but the whole Han family was interested as well.
After all, this was a Spirit Beast that could possibly be a Beast Emperor. This kind of Spirit Beast could only be found by chance in the Central Plains.
Lu Li's roar at the Mystic Fire City had deterred the Han Family from doing anything rash. Big families had to care about their dignity. To attack their savior was a taboo. If this matter was known, the Han Family would be reviled by the world.
More importantly, Lu Li was saving Han Yue. With Han Yue, the Han Family would have a chance to soar.
Now was the time to seek stability. Once their reputation was tarnished, they might be annihilated by the other clans, preventing the Han Clan from rising up.
Lu Li had stated that he was a disciple of the Lu Family, so Han Wuxin was even more afraid to do anything. Now, Lu Li claimed that he was a disciple of the immediate Lu Family. Han Wuxin didn't have any proof, but what if it was true?
Not to mention the Han Clan, even the Rank 7 Pavilion of Green Water would be annihilated if the Lu Clan found out that they dared to kill a direct descendant of the Lu Clan.
Lu Li was a disciple of the immediate Lu Family, a young man who had a spiritual beast that was suspected to be a Beast King, and a weirdo who could walk out from the Wicked Sorcery Mountain. There were so many mysteries and oddities about Lu Li.
If such a person were to return to the Lu Family, there would definitely be a chance for him to rise. Once he was in power in the Lu Family, the Han Family would gain a powerful ally.
With the addition of Han Yue, it was certain that the Han Clan would become a seventh-rank clan in the future.
Han Wuxin was the young leader of the Han family, the leader of the Hall of Battle, and the future leader of the Han family. His decision basically represented the Han family.
Lu Li was relieved. He followed Han Wuxin back to the private room of the auction house.
The auction had already begun, and two treasures had already been sold.
Lu Li didn't care about treasures. There were many in the Coffin of the Dragon King. It was just that he couldn't open it yet.
Moreover, his current cultivation level was too low. Even if he obtained a powerful treasure, it would not be able to increase his combat strength by much.
Han Wuxin invited Lu Li to bid and encouraged Han Yue as well.
Han Yue, on the other hand, was in high spirits. She bid for a few treasures, but they were all cheap treasures worth tens of millions of Mysterious Crystals.
The auction here was of a much higher level than the one at the Heaven Prison City. Lu Li saw that more than 100 Heaven Serpent Fruits were auctioned off at once. The rest of the auction items were worth tens or hundreds of millions of Xuan Crystals. Few of them were worth millions.
Unable to resist Han Wuxin's kindness, Lu Li made a move. He had his eyes on an elixir, one that could nourish the soul. This was what he needed.
However, the spiritual medicine was not that precious. The final price was eighty million Xuan Crystals. It was a favor from Han Wuxin, and the Han Family did not spend too much.
Lu Li was dazzled by the following items. Many of them were treasures he had never heard of.
Han Wuxin asked Lu Li to continue bidding but Lu Li refused. Han Wuxin knew what Lu Li was thinking so he didn't try to persuade him anymore.
Han Wuxin was in a good mood. He bought a beautiful top-class armor with seven hundred million Xuan Crystals and gave it to Han Yue.
Han Yue was so excited that her eyes were wet. She had never felt a father's love since she was young. This time, she could be considered to have made up for it.
"Master Xin."
An escort suddenly walked in and whispered to Han Wuxin, "Lord Song He wants to talk to you."
Lu Li put on a smile. Yu Huashen and Ming Yu were nervous. Song He was going to talk about the price.
Song He walked over to Lu Li, smiled gently, waved his hand and said, "Go and tell Brother Song He that I am with Young Master Lu Li and cannot leave. I will go and apologize to him later."
"Eh?"
Yu Huashen and Ming Yu's eyes glowed. Han Wuxin was making it clear that he was going to protect Lu Li.
He had pointed out Lu Li's identity, which meant that he had learned everything. Not seeing Song He was a strong signal as well.
The escort left. Lu Li was relieved. Even though the Han Family was weaker than the Song Family, they were at the same level.
Both of them were affiliated to the Pavilion of Green Water. Theoretically speaking, the Song Family wouldn't dare to do anything unless the Song Family wanted to start a war with the Han Family.
After a while, the escort came back with Song He's words. The escort wanted to whisper to Han Wuxin's ears but Han Wuxin waved his hand and said, "Young Master Lu and the others are my friends. There are no secrets. Just say it."
The escort answered honestly, "Lord Song He said that Young Master Lu … killed someone of the Song Family. If Master Xin insists on protecting Young Master Lu, it will affect the relationship between the two families."
"Ha, ha, ha ~"
Han Wuxin laughed and said with mockery, "Go and tell Song He that Young Master Lu saved my daughter's life and he is a friend of mine.
Don't waste time. Just come back after you tell him. "
Han Wuxin had made his stance clear. He was going to stand on Lu Li's side even if he had to fall out with the Song Family.
Lu Li cupped his fists to Han Wuxin gratefully. The latter smiled lightly, not worried at all.
The escort came back after he delivered the message. The auction was going on and it was coming to an end. The last few treasures were being auctioned off.
Lu Li and the other two were relaxed. They would go back to the Mystic Armor Region after the auction was over and then go back to the Mystic Fire City.
The last few items were indeed treasures. There was already a Holy Grade Xuan Artifact. The price was soaring as well. The price had reached five billion Xuan Crystals, which shocked Lu Li and the others.
"Alright, next up is the second last item of our auction."
A pretty lady from the auction house raised her hand. A strong man came up with an item in his arms. The item was wrapped in a red cloth so Lu Li couldn't see what it was. The pretty auctioneer said with a smile, "This item is interesting. It was found in an ancient site.
This item … we cannot identify it. If anyone here knows it, please tell us so that we can see it. "
"Cannot identify it?"
Many people were curious. Lu Li felt this sentence was familiar. Where had he heard it before?
Then he remembered that when he was bidding for the Origin Blood Essence at the Heaven Punishing Auction House, the auction house couldn't identify it.
Lu Li looked at the item curiously. The pretty auctioneer lifted the red cloth and saw a huge golden claw.
That was right!
That strong man was holding a huge golden claw. Clearly, it belonged to a powerful Xuan Beast and it was cut off.
The beast claw was golden in color as if it was made of gold. There were many small scales on it, emitting a cold and metallic qi and energy.
Even just one claw could make many people breathless. How powerful the owner of the beast claw must be.
"This claw must be at least of the Beast King Realm!"
Han Wuxin's eyes glowed. He said in a deep voice, "This is indeed a rare treasure. There are three drops of Origin Blood Essence in the claw. That is why the claw is not decayed and it has such a powerful qi and energy. If the claw belonged to a beast above the Beast King level, it will be valuable …"
"Phew, phew ~"
With that said, Han Wuxin suddenly felt something was off. He turned to Lu Li, only to see Lu Li panting heavily. His muscles were bulging and his eyes were glowing in silver light. There was a strange qi and energy coming out of him. It was as if Lu Li had become a human-shaped beast.
Han Wuxin hurriedly grabbed Lu Li and shouted, "Brother Lu, what happened?"
Ming Yu, Yu Huashen and the others also looked at Lu Li nervously, wondering why he had become like this.
