Invincible from Seeing the BOSS's Health Bar

The conversation on Bo Changquan’s side can only be considered a starting point, an opportunity to gain a foothold in the capital.

”An auction, huh? That’s quite a coincidence...”

Bo Changquan smiled and said, ”In a while, I’ll be hosting a secret auction on my end, but I’m not sure if you’re interested. If it’s just ordinary or slightly rare materials, you can find them in bigger shops in the capital, like Treasure Light Hall or Imitation Immortal Pavilion, though the prices might be a bit high.”

A secret... auction?

”Will there be materials like the Ice Heaven Cone and Ascending Immortal Xuan up for auction?”

The materials Ding Hui needed, aside from being sourced from all over the world, were also of a top-tier level of rarity.

Concerning his second sister’s physical body, Fang Yu dared not be negligent. Although he could have chosen inferior substitutes, Fang Yu insisted on using high-grade goods, so the list of materials Ding Hui provided was full of hard-to-acquire items.

However, along the way, they accumulated many things. With an auction, buying and selling would be natural; selling some of the items on hand would naturally provide money to acquire the desired items. The initial purpose of collecting these things was indeed for this moment.

”These two items you mentioned, I’ll check if they’re for sale, but there shouldn’t be much of an issue. The things you mentioned aren’t exactly the finale items, and similar materials have appeared at past auctions. Trust me, since I mentioned it, there’s a high probability that the auction will have what you need.”

”Moreover, you must understand, in this auction, among the items sold are humans, demons, and... artifacts, top-tier materials.”

”People bring items acquired from various ruins, even from the Land of Gathering Evil, risking to get them to the capital to sell. These items that can’t be sold openly on the surface will very likely appear at this auction. Since Brother Diao just arrived in the capital, I’ll take you to see the market, allowing you to better understand the capital and establish yourself here.”

Establish, huh...

To be honest, whether to stay in the capital and for how long is still unknown.

Originally, Fang Yu had great expectations for the capital, but as of now, that sense of anticipation has been mostly consumed.

The capital, rumored to be sacred and wonderful beyond measure, is nothing more than an alternative demon cave.

However, until the goal is achieved, Fang Yu is not going to leave the capital.

As for this rather alternative and opportunity-filled auction, he naturally must attend!

”Then I’ll trouble Brother Bo to help.”

”No problem, when the time comes, I’ll have someone notify you.”

It must be said, with someone’s help, things are indeed much easier.

A day ago, Fang Yu and Ding Hui were still wandering the flea market. Although, thanks to Ding Hui’s ability, they managed to grab quite a few overlooked items and it seemed like they gained a lot.

But in reality, none of the materials they truly needed were acquired.

The flea market is a mixed bag of goods and people, not completely devoid of good stuff, but to find something good there, you first need the ability to recognize it.

In this regard, with Ding Hui present, it’s not an issue.

But the second point is needing time.

Yes, just one day squatting at the flea market is far from enough.

At Hundred Mischief Lane, every day, every moment, is flowing; vendors come and go, products keep changing. Without keeping a long watch, the good stuff may be bought by others as soon as it appears.

This is the downside of the flea market; its instability is too great, unlike shop items, which, although priced high, are constantly available to purchase when needed.

Now that the matter of materials has temporarily been taken care of, Fang Yu feels much more at ease.

Recalling the previous night’s events, he opened his mouth to ask.

”By the way, last night, the Absolute Sect killed a demon at Chunhong House...”

Unexpectedly, before Fang Yu could finish speaking, Bo Changquan interrupted directly.

”A small matter! The Absolute Sect sure is crazy, daring to slaughter demons without reprisal in the capital’s territory. But unfortunately... this is not a place where their Absolute Sect can run rampant! Believe me, soon, the disciples of the Absolute Sect who acted will have their corpses hung in prominent places, dying violently in the streets as a warning.”

Violently... in the streets?

Fang Yu’s heart skipped a beat.

Such a harsh approach.

Yet, the Absolute Sect is doing what the entire sect has been doing—killing every demon they can.

Bo Changquan seemed to read Fang Yu’s thoughts, patting his shoulder, saying.

”The actions and beliefs of the Absolute Sect are naturally not a problem, but they broke the rules. To weed out evil and demons, it must be done according to the capital’s rules, killing those specific demons, those they’re allowed to slaughter, instead of killing any demon! Otherwise, believe me, the people of the Absolute Sect won’t last long in the capital.”

Killing specific demons, indeed!

The demons of the capital are special, having specific tags, and ordinary people can’t kill them!

Fang Yu squinted slightly, feeling an inexplicable surge of hostility, which he quickly suppressed.

It was clearly unrelated to him, yet somehow, it made him quite irritated.

What rules, what regulations— a demon is a demon, why can’t they be slaughtered?

When demons eat humans, they’re eating live, breathing people!

Fang Yu looked at Bo Changquan, suppressing his emotions, thought for a moment, and asked.

”Brother Bo, could you find out the whereabouts of the Absolute Sect disciple who unleashed the Black Fire at Chunhong House last night?”

”Oh? You’re interested?”

Bo Changquan expressed a slight surprise.

”Not exactly, but the Black Fire left behind by that person is similar to a technique of someone I once knew. I’d like to confirm it myself.”
