The Immortal Emperor Returns
Chapter 585 Confusing Right and Wrong
Qiu Yunping stared at Chu Xun and then at the Shengyang Flower on the auction stage, with a suspicious look on his face.
“Mo Nai, where did you get the Shengyang Flower?”
Mo Nai’s face darkened. Qiu Yunping had described the Shengyang Flower as a mutant sunflower with a few words. He said in a low voice, “Mr. Qiu, do you think we will reveal the identity of the client?”
“Fuck, who is the client? I think it’s a thief, isn’t it?” Qiu Yunping narrowed his eyes and said, “Just now you heard that two mutant sunflowers were lost in my backyard. I suspect that the so-called Shengyang Sunflower is one of the mutant sunflowers.”
The crowd erupted into an uproar. Was the legendary secret medicinal herb actually a sunflower?
“Mr. Qiu, please don’t make irresponsible remarks. This is a great medicinal herb, a Shengyang Flower that your mutant sunflowers can not compare to.” Mo Nai couldn’t restrain himself anymore, and he was in anger.
“Let me have a look. I’ll know if it’s one of the mutant sunflowers lost in my backyard.”
“Mr. Qiu, you must be joking. This is a great medicinal herb that can only be checked by the people who win the bid.”
“Bullshit. I think you obviously have a guilty conscience. How dare you steal the things of my Shadowless Sect?” Qiu Yunping scolded angrily.
“Mr. Qiu, don’t talk nonsense here. This is a Shengyang Flower. We have asked specialists to identify it.”
“Well, as a courtesy to Xihe Auction House, I will consider buying and checking it. What is the starting price? If it is one of the mutant sunflowers that I lost, don’t blame me for being rude,” Qiu Yunping said with a sneer.
“If you win the bid, then you can check it at will. The starting price is 5,000 mid-grade spirit herbs,” Mo Nai said.
“Alright, I’ll pay 5,000 herbs,” Qiu Yunping said.
Mo Nai listened carefully and waited for the others to bid. However, the scene was perfectly silent, and the atmosphere was slightly strange.
No one was stupid. The Biluo Herb Qiu Yunping took out before was the best example. If they spent a lot of money buying a mutant sunflower, it would be a big joke.
Mo Nai’s face was gloomy. He knew that no one bid because Qiu Yunping had confused right and wrong.
“Everyone, please don’t worry, I’m willing to promise with the credit of Xihe Auction House that this is absolutely a Shengyang Flower,” Mo Nai said.
“Your promise is useless.” Qiu Yunping sneered disdainfully. “Will you admit it when it is sold? It’s better to keep the money in our own pocket. It’s not easy to get it back after it has fallen into someone else’s pocket.”
Mo Nai’s face turned eggplant-colored and was twitching.
“Are there any other bids? If no one wants to bid, please hammer quickly. I want to see if this is a mutant sunflower lost in my Shadowless Sect,” Qiu Yunping shouted.
The scene was completely silent.
Mo Nai was so angry and knew that no one would bid. Hearing Qiu Yunping’s words, everyone believed more that this was a mutant sunflower.
“Hammer quickly. What the hell are you waiting for? Do you have a guilty conscience? Is this the mutant sunflower of my Shadowless Sect?” Qiu Yunping said.
Mo Nai was so angry that he hammered three times to decide the price. He looked cold and asked someone to send the Shengyang Flower to Qiu Yunping’s private room.
“Mr. Qiu, please take a look. Is this your sunflower?”
They made the deal.
After getting the Shengyang Flower, Qiu Yunping threw it to Chu Xun behind him and said, “Check if it’s a sunflower that we lost.”
Chu Xun pretended to check it and said, “Young Master, this is indeed one of the mutant sunflowers that we lost. I took care of them myself. I can’t be wrong.”
Qiu Yunping stood up abruptly, glared at Mo Nai, and said, “You have to give me an explanation.”
Mo Nai was stunned. It was indeed a Shengyang Flower. How could it be a mutant sunflower? But soon, he realized that Qiu Yunping was deliberately making trouble.
“Mr. Qiu, do you have any evidence to support your words?”
Qiu Yunping narrowed his eyes and sneered. “What do you mean? Do you want to deny it? If you hand over the thief today, then I’ll let off you. If you insist on protecting the thief, then don’t blame me for being rude. Shadowless City will probably be unable to tolerate swindlers like all of you.”
“Mr. Qiu, do you really think Shadowless City is up to you?” Mo Nai said angrily.
“You stole the things of my Shadowless Sect to auction and deceive all the heroes here. As the master of Shadowless City, I won’t allow you, a group of people who have deceived the world, to do whatever you want,” Qiu Yunping said angrily.
“Mr. Qiu, you are too unreasonable, aren’t you? Haven’t you said Shengyang Flower is actually a mutant sunflower from your Shadowless Sect? Don’ you think you should prove your words? You’re too paranoid, aren’t you?” Lei Han obviously spoke up for Mo Nai.
Qiu Yunping glared at him. “How dare you butt into the affairs of Shadowless City, scum of the Assembly of Immortals? What do you want?”
Lei Han’s face changed dramatically. How did Qiu Yunping recognize him?
The others present were also restless and looked at Lei Han. The relationship between the Assembly of Immortals and the human was tense. They were always at odds with each other. How dare Lei Han come to the auction? Was he provoking them?
“Mo Nai, Lei Han was invited by your Xihe Auction House, wasn’t he? If I hadn’t occupied the Tianzi No.1 room, it would be his, right? As a human, you arranged a person from the Assembly of Immortals in front of us. Why are you so close to a person from the Assembly of Immortals? Don’t you think you should give us an explanation?” Qiu Yunping said angrily.
There was uncertainty in Mo Nai’s eyes. He did not expect Qiu Yunping to see through Lei Han’s identity but didn’t think it was a problem. He said, “Mr. Qiu, why do you think that Mr. Lei Han is from the Assembly of Immortals? He is an upright human.”
“Really?” Qiu Yunping sneered. “In that case, please let him swear to us that the people from the Assembly of Immortals are bastards, and they deserve more than death. If he can do as I said, I’ll believe him and apologize to him immediately.”
Lei Han’s face darkened. How could he say that? Even if he did, he would not be able to hold his head high in front of other people from the Assembly of Immortals in the future.
“What’s wrong with you? You don’t dare to utter the words, right?” Qiu Yunping stared at Lei Han and said, “As a Bastard from the Assembly of Immortals, what else do you want to say?”
Mo Nai was anxious secretly and said, “Mr. Qiu, aren’t you going too far by forcing an innocent person to make such an oath?”
“What’s wrong with swearing an oath to curse the Assembly of Immortals? Everyone present dares to say the words. I just let Lei Han swear. What does it have to do with you?”
“What right do you have to make me swear?” Lei Han said in a low voice.
“If you don’t swear, you are a bastard of the Assembly of Immortals.”
“Shut up, you despicable ant.” Lei Han was irritated by Qiu Yunping’s words and roared subconsciously.
The crowd was in an uproar. Obviously, Lei Han was indeed from the Assembly of Immortals.
Mo Nai’s face was very gloomy, and he scolded Lei Han in his mind for being impatient.
“Mo Nai, you are close to the Assembly of Immortals. I ask you to give us an explanation in the name of the Shadowless Sect.”
“There’s nothing to talk about. It is our own business to contact with anyone.”
“How dare you? The whole Shadowless City is the territory of my Shadowless Sect. Why did you say you have nothing to do with me? Don’t you know about the evil deeds of the Assembly of Immortals?”
“Mr. Qiu, aren’t you too arrogant by saying that Shadowless City is the territory of your Shadowless Sect? How dare you say that? I’m afraid it won’t be long for Shadowless City to be renamed Xihe City.” Mo Nai laughed coldly.
Qiu Yunping sneered and said, “You are so ambitious. You colluded with the Assembly of Immortals and attempted to take control of Shadowless City. Today, I will not tolerate you and the auction house.”
“Is it up to you, Mr. Qiu?” Mo Nai sneered disdainfully. “Do you think you can walk out of here alive today?”
Qiu Yunping’s expression turned even more disdainful. “The same words are for you. You’re the one who can’t get out of here today. Mo Nai, I know very well what’s going on between you and the people of the Assembly of Immortals. In fact, you’re no longer human but a devil.”
Everyone looked at Mo Nai in surprise. A devil? What devil was he?
“Everyone,” Qiu Yunping shouted, “Mo Nai is no longer a human. He has a foul aura and surrendered to the Subterranean Devils Clan long ago.”
Mo Nai’s expression was not angry but ferocious now. He didn’t expect Qiu Yunping had already known so much.
“Mr. Qiu, I really underestimated you. You are much smarter than I imagined, but at the same time, you are stupid. If I were you, I would not tell the truth at this time. You will go die with all the others present.”
“Do you admit that you are a devil?” Qiu Yunping sneered.
“Why can’t I admit it?” Mo Nai laughed maniacally. “You will find out sooner or later. What does it matter if I admit it now?”
Hearing that Mo Nai admitted that he was a Subterranean Devil, everyone present was shocked and a little confused. They thought the most powerful outsiders on earth were the Assembly of Immortals and the alien races. They had heard Subterranean Devils but did not expect them to appear so soon.
“Is everything prepared?” Mo Nai asked a young man.
“Everything’s ready,” the young man replied.
Mo Nai looked around at the crowd with a strange smile. “I wanted you to live a little longer, but I didn’t expect that Mr. Qiu told the truth and wanted to pull you to die together. I have to kill you now.”
After finishing his words, he shouted, “Activate the blood formation.”
Buzz!
The entire auction house was shrouded in a black enchantment. A foul aura surged, and some figures appeared one after another, filling the air with the foul aura. They were from a Subterranean Devil Army.
Everyone started panicking. Meanwhile, four experts with even more terrifying foul aura appeared and occupied the north, south, east, and west. The foul aura around them surged. They were actually experts at the later stage of the Earth Immortal Realm.
“Mr. Qiu, you shouldn’t have spoken so much. Had it not for you, they would be able to live for a while longer.” Mo Nai revealed a savage smile.
“How do you know that they will die?” Qiu Yunping was not in a panic, because Chu the Devil and a mysterious expert, Mengdie, were standing behind him.
Mo Nai roared madly with laughter, and then he activated a fist-sized scarlet ball with red light flowing, causing the entire auction house to be suffused with a pungent smell of blood.
“Everyone, this is the Blood Ball of the Subterranean Devils. We truly need your True Blood. You’d better not try to resist fearlessly. We will try our best to leave your bodies intact.”
