IMMORTAL MARTIAL GOD

Chapter 26 Mysterious woman



Chapter 26 Mysterious woman

Behind the auction hall, there was a long corridor. On both sides of the corridor were a number of small trading halls that contained the treasures that had been auctioned off.

Xiang Nan followed a maid to the tenth trading hall and pushed open the door. There were only two people inside.

One was the mysterious black-veiled woman, while the other was a teenage girl.

The little girl looked like she was carved out of jade. Her pair of big black eyes shone brightly, her small nose was cute and cute, and her snow-white skin was like a porcelain doll.

She was dressed in brocade-clothed mink fur, and her large furry collar made her even more exquisite and cute. However, it was a bit too exaggerated to wear such thick clothes at this time of year.

The little girl rippled her legs playfully. She took out a small piece of translucent pastries from an exquisite plate and put it into her mouth. She bit her head and tilted her head as she looked at Xiang Nan curiously.

The black-veiled woman still did not take off her veil. She dotingly stroked the little girl's black hair and spoiled her, "Do you want some water? Don't choke."

The little girl grinned like the sun.

Xiang Nan hesitated for a moment, then said, "I'm here to take the things I took, but …"

The woman's eyes curved and she smiled as she asked, "But what?"

"But I don't have any cash." Xiang Nan shook his head and said, "Can I exchange it for something else?"

As he spoke, Xiang Nan took out a calligraphy and painting from his storage ring. This was the best and most expensive calligraphy and painting he had preserved, and it was even better than the one he had given to the City Lord earlier.

Xiang Nan said, "This calligraphy painting is worth about two million gold coins. It is extremely difficult to find a similar level in the market. I will use it to offset 1.5 million gold coins. How about it?"

Xiang Nan's actions were equivalent to a loss of 500,000 yuan, but who knew that the woman would shake her head with a smile?

Xiang Nan frowned, "Two million for 1.5 million, you're not even going to change?"

The woman smiled and said, "I only want cash."

Xiang Nan took a deep breath. He could tell that this woman was clearly making things difficult for him!

As a businessman of an auction house, how could he not take advantage of it?

"Alright!" Xiang Nan gritted his teeth and said, "Wait for me. Two hours later, I'll take the money to buy it."

The woman shook her head and said, "If you want to buy it, trade it face to face. After two hours, I won't sell it. This knife is my personal belongings. It doesn't violate the rules of the auction house."

The little girl giggled as she listened to the two of them. Her voice was as crisp as a pair of bronze bells.

As for Xiang Nan, he couldn't help but say in a low voice, "What do you mean? Tell me clearly."

The woman stroked the black saber and glanced at Xiang Nan intentionally or unintentionally. "You have to tell me why you bought this saber."

Xiang Nan's heart sounded an alarm. Could it be that this woman knew that this saber could sense the attributes of thunder meridians? However, he said, "It's just a personal preference."

The woman shook her head, "You're too disingenuous to say that. I won't sell the saber anymore."

Xiang Nan felt that this woman was not simple, but if he really wanted to tell him why he bought the knife, it would be impossible!

Lightning Meridian talent was rare in the world, how could it be exposed for a saber?

Immediately, Xiang Nan took out another painting and said, "This painting is worth about 700,000 gold coins. It's for a second-grade Snow Cicada Grass."

After saying that, Xiang Nan picked up the Snow Cicada Grass and left.

The Snow Cicada Grass was a treasure that was auctioned by the auction house. Xiang Nan had decided on a purchase contract after bidding. Women could not stop Xiang Nan.

After leaving the auction house, Xiang Nan quickened his pace, wanting to leave this place as soon as possible. He always felt that the mysterious woman had other plans.

Along the way, he quietly changed into his normal clothes. When he returned to his room, he found his mother waiting at a table with a steaming bowl of ginseng soup on it.

"Mother." In Xiang Nan's mind, memories and emotions belonging to the real Xiang Nan appeared, causing him to involuntarily use the intimate term "mother" instead of the word "mother".

Mother kindly pulled Xiang Nan to sit down beside her. She stroked Xiang Nan's temples and said softly, "Mother has cooked a bowl of ginseng soup for you. It has been three hours. Nan Nan should take advantage of the heat to drink it."

Xiang Nan watched his mother recover from her long illness and her slightly pale face. He immediately felt a choke in his throat and a sour nose. He hurriedly said, "The child is in good health. Mother, drink it."

The mother lovingly said, "Silly child, in recent years, the Xiang Clan has fallen into a state of despair, which has made you suffer. Mother's heart aches when she sees it …"

"Mother, stop talking." Xiang Nan couldn't help but hug her mother.

Xiang Nan, who had never experienced maternal love in his previous life, couldn't help but feel his eyes turn red, and tears rolled in his eyes.

He only felt that this life was worth it! Even if he didn't have any divine talent or lightning meridian attributes, just having a loving mother was enough.

Her mother patted Xiang Nan's back gently as if she had coaxed him when he was a child. "Nan Nan, come, drink the soup."

Xiang Nan shook his head. "Mother doesn't drink, and neither do I."

Mother didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Then I'll drink half of it, Nannan, okay?"

"Alright!" Xiang Nan withdrew from his mother's embrace and quickly wiped his eyes.

Mother drank half a bowl of ginseng soup and looked at Xiang Nan happily as he drank half a bowl of ginseng soup. Only then did she bloom with a happy smile.

This half bowl of soup was probably the most delicious ginseng soup Xiang Nan had ever tasted in his previous life.

At this moment, in the courtyard outside Xiang Nan's room, there was an ancient tree.

The crescent moon curved. Through the moonlight, one could vaguely see that there was a woman standing on the tree. She was the mysterious woman of the Conglomerate Pavilion Auction House.

The woman could clearly see what was happening in the room. Her eyes were slowly filled with a layer of gentle light.

"Right." In the room, Mother said to Xiang Nan, "Your grandfather and the others are looking for you. I almost forgot. Nan Nan will go over after a rest. Mother will leave first."

"Alright, I'll send mother out." Xiang Nan escorted her mother out of the door and glanced at the tree, but it was empty.

Later, he hurried to his grandfather's room.

In Grandpa's study, the three elders of the family, his father, and some uncles were discussing.

Xiang Nan came in and found a seat to sit and listen. Originally, there wasn't a seat for a junior like Xiang Nan here, but because Xiang Nan had made a special contribution to the Xiang Family, Xiang Nan also listened to what had happened in the family recently.

After listening to the elders' conversation, Xiang Nan finally knew the whole story.

The City Lord did draw a plot of land for the Xiang Clan in the newly completed new city, but if that place was to be put into use, it would take at least one to two years.

In this short period of time, the Xiang Clan could not remain idle, so they wanted to buy back the property that originally belonged to the Xiang Clan in the old city.

Unfortunately, this matter was obstructed by the three great clans of Bluestone Town. No matter how much the Xiang Clan wanted to buy back the property, the three great clans increased their prices even more.

"Bullying!" Xiang Shaohua slammed the table angrily, "They are clearly going to cut off our Xiang Clan's path of retreat!"
