Chapter 287: Chapter 287: Challenge Letter (2)

"With me here, rest assured," Gu Yelin said calmly, nodding his head.

"Lately, Xuandu City has become increasingly restless. The Muyun Society’s influence abroad has suffered some blows. Although not severe, having too many lice inevitably annoys you," Duan Tang sipped his tea and spoke unhurriedly.

"The An Family as well. I went to the Beiyan Continent not long ago and nearly lost my life there," An Zhihang said with a sigh.

Bai Yiming stroked his chin, squinting his eyes, "Zhihang, your An Family... who exactly did you offend?" The more he thought about it, the more confused he became as to whom the An Family had offended to cause the young girl to go missing for so long.

"Hmph! Who knows!" An Zhihang’s glasses glinted coldly as he sneered, "The An Family has kept a low profile for too many years, almost to the point of being forgotten. So much so that everyone dares to bully my little sister. It seems we need to take action."

"A sleeping tiger is still a tiger. Some people are sick of living and want to be the An Family’s sacrificial knife," Bai Yiming said contemptuously, his voice laced with worry, "However... Zhihang, apart from the young girl, no one in your family practices ancient martial arts, which is a significant weakness. If someone with intentions catches onto this, I fear the outcome will be more bad than good."

An Zhihang couldn’t help but feel worried. At his age, Cultivation of Ancient Martial Arts was no longer possible, and even if he succeeded in cultivating Inner Breath, the progress would be minimal. Could such a state of the An Family become a burden to An Yiqing?

"Don’t think too much, you have to believe in Qing," the cold voice of Gu Yelin broke the room’s concern, "She is Ye Chenghong’s disciple, the most outstanding Divine Doctor. With her here, nothing will happen to the An Family. I won’t let her loved ones get hurt."

An Zhihang was startled, then smiled wryly, "I know my little sister’s capabilities are tremendous. But this feeling of being unable to protect her is really uncomfortable..."

"There will always be a way forward when the road seems to end," Duan Tang, who had been drinking tea, smiled and set down his cup, his black eyes shimmering, "The girl is someone who creates miracles."

...

An Yiqing was unaware of the conversation between the four men; after leaving them, she took Zhang Yuksheng to begin examining the raw stones.

Secret bidding involves taking a code of the raw stone you are interested in with a corresponding price in your mind, placing it into a secret box or entering it into the system, and then an auction takes place. The highest bid wins the stone corresponding to that code. This method is risky; many people often lose the gems they desire over minor differences. At such times, it’s all about who dares to gamble and who has the deepest pockets!

Anomalous vital energy swirled through An Yiqing, making her clear eyes more dazzling, captivating anyone who looked into them, rendering them unable to extricate themselves.

The secret bidding hall was divided into eight sections. An Yiqing would scrutinize each in turn. Her clear gaze, like X-rays, revealed everything hidden inside the stones with nowhere to hide.

Unlike other bidders who would carry a notebook to jot down codes of the stones they were satisfied with, she relied on her strong memory. Scan all of one section at once, and then she would dictate the codes, instructing Zhang Yuksheng to note them down in his notebook, emphasizing the stones that required special attention.

In no time, An Yiqing had thoroughly examined one area.

To her slight disappointment, while this batch of raw stones seemed of good quality on the outside, there were none with top-quality jade inside. However, there were some high-quality High Ice Species stones. To An Yiqing, these were dispensable. What she needed now were top-quality jades to use with the Spirit Spring for Jade Born from Jade.

"Miss..." Zhang Yuksheng held the notebook, stunned as he watched An Yiqing. Couldn’t this speed be too fast? While others had just finished inspecting a few raw stones, the young lady had already checked the entire section?
