"You're too polite, Deacon Purple Heart." Ma Xiuxiu smiled calmly and didn't explain anything to Shen Luo and the others.
"Miss Xiu, you have come to participate in this auction. What would you like to purchase?" Deacon Purple Heart asked as he led the three of them inside.
"I don't have any plans to buy anything. This time I came to your auction because these two friends wanted to buy a few things. I was just accompanying them." Ma Xiuxiu said.
"I see. May I know your names, and what do you want to buy? I can arrange it for you in advance." Upon hearing this, Deacon Zi Xin's face was moved. He looked at Shen Luo and Xie Yuxin and asked out of habit.
"We are just two casual cultivators. You don't need to tell us our names. We came here today just to buy some supplies for cultivation. We don't dare to trouble you." How could Shen Luo trust this person? He said lightly.
Seeing this, Deacon Zi Xin did not ask any more questions. He led Shen Luo and the other person forward and soon arrived at a meeting place.
The venue is extremely large, almost as big as some small squares, and it is filled with rows of seats, numbering hundreds.
At the front of the venue there were dozens of red square tables, on which were placed many spiritual fruits, teas and other items. There were several large mahogany chairs around each table, which were obviously for distinguished guests to sit, in stark contrast to the crowded seats in the back.
"Three distinguished guests, please take a seat here. It's closer to the auction table and you can see more clearly." Zi Xin led the three people to sit at a square table in front. Not far in front was the auction platform.
The woman briefly introduced the auction process to the three people, gave each of them a jade plate with a number on it, and then quickly said goodbye and left to greet other guests.
Shen Luo looked at the jade token in his hand. There was the number 309 written on it. With a little magic power injected into it, it would emit light.
"I never thought that a casual cultivator like me could sit in this VIP seat. This is all thanks to Miss Ma's favor." Xie Yuxin looked at Ma Xiuxiu with a slight flash in her eyes and smiled meaningfully.
She had spent much more time in Chang'an than Shen Luo and understood the significance of the VIP seats at the Xuanyuan Pavilion auction.
"Thank you for the compliment, sister. It's just that an elder in my family has been promoted in Jubao Pavilion, and the Taoist friends in Chang'an City are giving me a little face for the sake of my elder. I wonder what sister Xie is going to buy today?" Ma Xiuxiu changed the subject with a smile.
The two girls seemed to get along quite well and soon started chatting together, leaving Shen Luo aside.
Shen Luo didn't care and turned around to look around.
At this time, there was still some time before the auction started, and the seats in the venue were not full yet, with only about half of the people present.
These people were dressed differently, but most of them looked excited and were obviously looking forward to the Xuanyuan Pavilion auction.
"I just heard that people from Huasheng Temple, Putuo Mountain, and the Tang Dynasty government will attend the auction today?" Shen Luo retracted his gaze and asked casually.
"That's right. Mr. Mian Yue from Huasheng Temple and Fairy Qinghua from Mount Putuo are in Chang'an City right now. That one is Mr. Mian Yue, and the one next to him is General Jin Kui from the Tang Dynasty government." Ma Xiuxiu raised her chin slightly and gestured in the direction of a mahogany square table in the distance.
