Stealing the Heavens from Douluo

An old man suddenly spoke.

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen immediately picked up the jade pendant and observed it carefully for a moment.

"Yes, it is indeed a jade plaque!"

Xiao Chen looked at the jade plaque and nodded slightly.

"What...what's going on? Is this snow eagle looking for something?"

Looking at the jade token in Xiao Chen's hand, everyone was a little puzzled.

"I don't know, but this snow eagle is certainly not simple!"

Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this.

"Okay, everyone, I have to entertain guests and friends, so excuse me!"

Xiao Chen cupped his hands and said to everyone.

"It doesn't matter, you go ahead and come back when you're done!"

Lin Tianyu smiled and waved his hands.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen nodded, turned and left the banquet hall.

Then he came to the lobby on the first floor and prepared to find a place to sit.

"Brother Xiao Chen, I want to sit down too!"

At this moment, a pleasant voice suddenly came into my ears.

When Xiao Chen heard this, he turned around and saw a petite young woman wearing a purple dress standing there playfully, smiling sweetly at him.

When Xiao Chen heard this, he was slightly startled, then nodded with a smile and said, "Okay!"

When the woman heard this, a blush instantly appeared on her face.

Then she sat directly next to Xiao Chen, then stretched out her delicate hand to hold Xiao Chen's arm, and stared at Xiao Chen with a pair of bright eyes, full of curiosity.

Xiao Chen felt the woman's softness and couldn't help but form a smile on his lips.

He found that this girl was really interesting.

"Brother Xiao Chen, did you use your soul to control this snow eagle just now?"

The woman saw the smile on Xiao Chen's lips and couldn't help but ask.

When Xiao Chen heard this, he didn't hide anything. He nodded and said, "Yes, I have a soul and can control this snow eagle. Not only that, I can also erase its spiritual imprint!"

"Wow! That's great!"

After hearing Xiao Chen's words, the woman's beautiful eyes immediately flashed with surprise.

At this time, many men passing by looked at her with envy and hatred.

This girl, the daughter of the Li family, has never been so intimate with a boy.

And the boy in front of him actually had the opportunity to have a dinner with the daughter of the Li family.

Thinking that he had ridiculed others just now, everyone at this moment felt that their cheeks were burning.

"Haha, it's just a trivial matter, not worth mentioning. I wonder what I call you, miss?"

"My name is Li Mengdie, and I am the daughter of the Li family!"

When Li Mengdie heard this, she smiled sweetly and then said.

"It turns out to be a young lady from the Li family. Nice to meet you!"

Xiao Chen smiled and shook hands with Li Mengdie politely.

"By the way, brother Xiao Chen, what did I hear you call Mr. Xiao just now?"

Li Mengdie looked at Xiao Chen and suddenly asked curiously.

"Well, my surname is indeed Xiao, and my name is Xiao Chen, but I'm just an unknown person!"

Xiao Chen smiled when he heard this.

"So your name is Xiao Chen!"

"Yes, my name is Xiao Chen!"

"Then I will call you Xiao Chen from now on!"

"it is good!"

Xiao Chen nodded.

At this time, people around them kept looking towards the two of them, obviously watching the excitement and not taking it too seriously.

"Brother Xiao Chen, can I ask a question?"

Li Mengdie suddenly approached Xiao Chen and asked with blinking eyes.

Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment, and then said doubtfully: "Of course!"

"Hehe... Brother Xiao Chen, which country are you from? I heard that you have many powerful martial arts over there. Will you teach me?"

When Li Mengdie heard this, he rolled his eyes and suddenly asked.

"Martial arts?"

Xiao Chen couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.

Then he thought about it carefully and found that this question was really interesting. He couldn't help but smile and said: "I don't know. I'm just an ordinary person and don't know martial arts. But if you want to learn it, I'm willing to learn it." I’ll teach you a few tricks!”

"Really? Thank you so much, that's great!"

When Li Mengdie heard this, he immediately said excitedly.

"You're welcome. If you like learning, you should find someone to learn from, instead of trying to figure it out on your own. But you also know that I am alone and I don't have a master. If you want to learn, I can teach you some of my secrets!"

"Thank you!"

Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Li Mengdie was immediately excited and hurriedly thanked him.

"Haha, it's just a little effort from me, it's nothing!"

Xiao Chen smiled and said, it was just a matter of effort.

"Brother Xiao Chen, please come this way!"

At this moment, another man suddenly came over and respectfully made a 'please' gesture to Xiao Chen.

"Um!"

Xiao Chen nodded, and then followed the man towards a remote corner.

At this moment, many people were sitting in the corner, but no one spoke. They all watched Xiao Chen talking to the man quietly.

The man's name is Wang Yang, and he is the host of this auction.

"Xiao Chen, where did you come from? How come you are so powerful that you can control this snow eagle easily!"

Wang Yang brought Xiao Chen to an empty table and chair. After sitting down, he asked.

Hearing the man's words, Xiao Chen smiled faintly and said, "I come from another world. I came here this time because I want to use the auction to earn some resources!"

Xiao Chen did not tell Wang Yang his true identity. After all, Wang Yang was just a businessman. If he knew his true identity, it would probably cause a lot of trouble.

So Xiao Chen simply made up the lies into another pattern.

"Oh? From another world?"

Wang Yang couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.

He originally thought that Xiao Chen was a cultivator or a foreigner, but he didn't expect that he was just an ordinary tourist attending the auction.

"Well, my strength is only at the ordinary foundation-building stage, but I have superhuman control, so I can easily control a monster!"

Xiao Chen smiled lightly and explained.

"Superhuman control?"

When Wang Yang heard this, his expression suddenly changed, and a look of shock appeared in his eyes.

Beyond the control of ordinary people?

How could such a monster exist in this world?

"Yes, I am stronger than you think, so you don't have to worry that I will be bad for you!"

Seeing this, Xiao Chen smiled and said.

"Haha...that's what Brother Xiao Chen said!"

Wang Yang smiled awkwardly and nodded quickly.

"Okay, let's start the auction quickly. We won't be able to stay here when the time is up, so as not to delay the auction time!"

Xiao Chen looked at the time and then urged.

"Okay, let's start right away. Brother Xiao Chen, please take a seat!"

Wang Yang nodded quickly when he heard Xiao Chen's words.

Then, he turned and walked towards the auction table on one side.

At this moment, sitting in the front row of the auction table was a tall, handsome middle-aged man wearing rich clothes.

"The head of the Li family, Li Hongwei!"

Seeing this, Li Mengdie couldn't help but whisper to himself.

"Li Hongwei, the head of the Li family, is the leader of the younger generation of the Li family!"

Next to Li Mengdie, Li Tiancheng reminded him in a low voice.

When Xiao Chen heard Li Tiancheng's words, a gleam of surprise suddenly appeared in his eyes.

Unexpectedly, the head of the Li family was actually Li Hongwei.

"Haha, Miss Mengdie, I didn't expect that we would meet again today!"

Li Hongwei seemed to have heard Li Mengdie's muttering, and suddenly turned his head and smiled slightly at Li Mengdie.

Li Mengdie was startled, then showed a bright smile and said: "I didn't expect Uncle Li to know me too!"

"Miss Mengdie is a stunning beauty, how could I forget that!"

When Li Hongwei heard this, he laughed loudly.

"Uncle Li is so complimentary. I wonder if Uncle Li, who is here to attend the auction this time, is also planning to attend the auction three days later?"

Li Mengdie couldn't help but wonder after hearing this.

After hearing what Li Mengdie said, Li Hongwei smiled and shook his head and said: "The auction has not started yet, and I have just arrived here. As for participating in the auction, it is because this auction is of great significance to me!"

Li Hongwei said, his eyes full of heat.

"Oh? Really? I wonder what kind of treasure auction there is this time?"

When Li Mengdie heard this, he couldn't help but show strong interest.

"Haha, you will understand then!"

"OK then!"

Li Mengdie nodded after hearing this.

At this time, the auction has begun, and the first thing to appear is an antique-level jade.

"This one is an ancient blue and white porcelain, called "A Hundred Birds Paying Attention to the Phoenix"!"

Wang Yang picked up the microphone and spoke loudly, his voice was loud and full of magnetism.

""The Picture of Hundred Birds Facing Phoenix" is divided into seven parts: Picture of Hundreds of Birds Facing Phoenix, Picture of Thousand Birds Facing Phoenix, Peacock Spreading Its Tail, Hundreds of Cranes Singing Together, and Phoenix Roosting in the Nine Heavens!"

"Each pattern has its own artistic conception and beauty. It can show its own posture, and it can also form its own pressure and charm, making people feel the fluctuation of the soul fire contained in it!"

After Wang Yang introduced the painting "A Hundred Birds Worshiping the Phoenix", he announced the bidding price.

"The base price of this "Hundred Birds Paying Attention to the Phoenix" is [-] yuan. Each time the price is increased, it must not be less than [-] yuan. Do you have any friends who want to increase the price?"

"Sixty thousand!"

"Sixty-five thousand!"

As soon as Wang Yang finished speaking, someone immediately started bidding.

This "Hundred Birds Paying Attention to the Phoenix" is indeed a rare masterpiece, so many people are very interested in it and bid on it.

Xiao Chen also looked at the picture with great interest.

Although he didn't know much about the history of this world, he was extremely familiar with the birds painted on the scroll.

Because almost all of these birds were created by him.

Moreover, the size and appearance of these birds are almost the same as those seen in Tianyan Continent.

"Well, it seems that the man named Li Hongwei is indeed a master of alchemy!"

Seeing everyone increasing their prices, Xiao Chen's eyes suddenly flashed with brilliance and he commented secretly.

Because he discovered that almost all of these birds were refined in alchemy furnaces.

"One hundred thousand!"

After a while, Li Hongwei finally quoted the sky-high price of 10 yuan for the top-quality spiritual stone.

Upon hearing this price, everyone stopped bidding and their expressions became serious.

10 yuan of top-quality spiritual stones is a huge sum of money for them.

So they didn't dare to add it casually. After all, the quality of this scroll was so poor that there was no way it could be sold at a high price.

"I'm going to decide on this scroll. If Uncle Li is willing, he'll give you [-] yuan, and I'll give it up!"

Li Mengdie couldn't help but said loudly when she saw that no one was raising the price anymore.

"Hmph, since I, Li Hongwei, am here to participate in this auction, how can I be intimidated by a yellow-haired girl?"

Hearing this, Li Hongwei's face suddenly turned cold.

He was a master of alchemy, but he was scared away by a little girl who was still young. This was a joke.

"Well, it seems that Uncle Li is not willing to exchange with us!"

Seeing how tough Li Hongwei was, Li Mengdie couldn't help but said with a serious face.

She disliked Li Hongwei's strength very much, so she said the word "we" to express that she didn't bother to talk to him.

"Haha, Miss Mengdie, don't get me wrong. I came here with a mission, so naturally I can't give up!"

Li Hongwei said with a faint smile.

"Mission? What are you going to auction?"

Li Mengdie frowned and asked after hearing this.

Li Hongwei is a genuine alchemy master, and he is also a three-star alchemy master. Therefore, he has a pivotal position in the elixir market of Southern Wilderness, so many forces and even sects hope to win over him.

So his task is certainly not simple.

Hearing Li Mengdie's question, Li Hongwei said calmly: "I need this fragment of "A Hundred Birds Paying Attention to the Phoenix"!"

"This fragment of "A Hundred Birds Paying Attention to the Phoenix"?"

Hearing this condition, Li Mengdie was immediately surprised and said, "It's a pity that we don't have it in Southern Wilderness!"

This is a fact. There is no residual picture of "A Hundred Birds Worshiping the Phoenix" in the entire Southern Wilderness Continent, so this residual picture has no effect at all.

"Oh? Are there things that we don't have in Southern Wilderness that are available in other places?"

Hearing this, Li Hongwei couldn't help but frown.

"Of course there is!"

Li Mengdie nodded after hearing this.

"Well, in that case, we might as well find a place to sit down and have a chat. Don't get close to anyone else waiting, so as not to cause a terrible conflict!"

Li Hongwei said lightly.

"it is good!"

Hearing this, Li Mengdie was slightly startled, then nodded in agreement.

She naturally knew Li Hongwei's identity very well, so she didn't dare to refute him.

......

"Xiao Chen, are you interested in this scroll?"

"Well, a little bit!"

When Xiao Chen heard this, he smiled and nodded.

"Although this painting of "Hundred Birds Paying Attention to the Phoenix" is precious, there is no way to refine the magic elixir, and it has no effect on us. If you are interested in it, then I can give it to you!"

Li Hongwei looked at Xiao Chen and smiled.

"No need!"

However, when Xiao Chen heard this, he waved his hands and said.

"Oh? If you have no interest in it, why did you buy it?"

Li Hongwei said doubtfully.

"Because it has a story!"

Xiao Chen smiled faintly, then pointed at the "Picture of Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix" and said.

Hearing this, Li Hongwei frowned slightly.

"As far as I know, there was an alchemy master who painted many birds on this painting, "A Hundred Birds Paying Attitude to the Phoenix." What is the predecessor of "Feng Tu"!"

Seeing Li Hongwei frowning, Xiao Chen explained with a smile.

Although he did not understand alchemy, he had some understanding of "A Hundred Birds Paying Attention to the Phoenix", so he knew that this scroll was once left by a master of alchemy.

"Are you talking about the birds painted in the scroll?"

Hearing this, Li Hongwei looked startled, and then suddenly realized, "So that's it!"

He didn't expect that this scroll was actually related to the birds painted in these paintings.

Seeing this, Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Uncle Li, do you think what I said is wrong?"

Hearing this, Li Hongwei couldn't help but smiled bitterly and shook his head.

“There are indeed many birds in these paintings that I have never seen before, and the painting skills of some of them are so miraculous that they can be called works of art. If they were put up for auction, they would definitely fetch sky-high prices! "
