Mo Xie is currently sleeping with Shang Ting on his lap on the patriarch throne.

Wuhan walks inside and spoke: "Patri- Oh."

Wuhan didn't continue his word, he saw Shang Ting and Mo Xie sleeping soundlessly inside the Clan's grand hall.

A smile couldn't help but form on his lips as he stepped back slowly, closing the door, he looked at the two disciples he picked earlier and spoke: "Guard the entrance, do not let anyone in."

"Yes, Master."

The two nodded as they bowed their head.

Wuhan chuckles on his way back as he smiled widely and went back to training with the other elders.

...

Mo Xie woke up in the afternoon, already energized, slowly opening his eyes, he felt something heavy on his lap.

He looked at the reason as a smile formed on his lips, Shang Ting is looking at him back, the two of them woke up at the same time.

"Good afternoon, wife."

"Good afternoon, husband."

Mo Xie smiled, Shang Ting then got off of Mo Xie and spoke: "Have you slept properly?"

"Yeah, just the right amount of sleep."

Mo Xie was about to stand up, but as soon as he did...

"Ahh..."

Shang Ting was shocked as she asked: "What is it?"

She felt extremely worried, Mo Xie is only an ordinary mortal, something must've happened due to mental exhaustion.

"My... My thigh has become numb."

Shang Ting tilts her head and asked: "Thigh?"

"Yeah..."

_Poke~_

"Ararara! Stop!" Mo Xie exclaimed.

_Poke~ Poke~_

"Stop! Wuhhh!"

_Poke~ Poke~ Poke~_

"Hmmp! It's not working any-"

_Pokeeeeee~_

"I give up!"

"Fufufu"

The two of them smiled as they started to chatter, after Mo Xie's thigh regained life, he looked at Shang Ting and spoke: "Do you want to train first? I`ll teach you the basics of swordsmans.h.i.+p and also give you a few close combat moves, or do you want to accompany me to the auction house?"

Shang Ting didn't even think and immediately replied: "Since husband has been exhausted, why not let the training start tomorrow and relax in an auction first?"

Mo Xie smiled as he felt blessed; 'So... this is the life I had missed when I soared to the top stepping on all of the other geniuses... I sure missed a lot of things in life...'

"Let's go."

"Un." Shang Ting smiled as she a.s.sisted Mo Xie in standing up.

The two of them headed out.

"Patriarch!"

"Patriarch!"

The two that Wuhan left earlier spoke.

"Oh, why are you guys here?" Mo Xie asked he had not placed anyone behind earlier.

"Reporting to Patriarch, our Master Wuhan had something to ask earlier, but after entering, he immediately backed out and order us to guard the entrance and not let anyone in." One of them spoke.

Mo Xie nodded as he spoke: "Call your Master, I will wait for him at the Clan's gate."

"Yes!" The two of them immediately ran as they went to call Wuhan.

Mo Xie walked towards the gate together with Shang Ting and waited there, after a few moments, Wuhan had arrived.

"Patriarch!" He bowed and greeted at the same time.

Mo Xie nodded as he spoke: "Rise."

"What is it that you wish to ask?"

Wuhan smiled as he asked: "Patriarch, this here..." Wuhan pointed at the things he needed to confirm, and each and every question that he had asked was immediately answered by Mo Xie without even batting an eyelid.

"...The foundation of each and every one of you needs to solidify first, you need to go back to the basic, do not skip any parts, just think that you are starting all over to bronze rank."

"Patriarch had enlightened this lowly one, I will tell this to the other four." Wuhan bowed as he bid his farewell to Mo Xie.

Mo Xie smiled at Shang Ting as she spoke: "Let's go."

"Un!"

The two of them headed to the biggest Auction house in the Gangting City, the Dragon Gate Treasured Pavilion and immediately entered.

"h.e.l.lo, how may I help the both of you?" The receptionist asked, she then looked at Shang Ting and became extremely shocked, how come there's a person as beautiful as this?! They must be from other countries!

Mo Xie nodded his head as he replied: "I'm here to auction some of my possessions."

"Oh, then, please follow me." The receptionist spoke with a smile as she looked at her companion and spoke.

"Please fill up my spot for the moment, I will bring our guest to the appraiser.

The other one nodded as she replaced the receptionist, the receptionist then led Mo Xie and Shang Ting to the 2nd floor, this is a place for the people of the Auction house, either staff or a customer goes here.

After a while, the three of them arrived in a cla.s.sic room without much of a decoration.

"Elder Lin, There are people that wish to Auction their items."

As the receptionist finished speaking, the curtain on the other room opened, a lady around her thirties appeared.

Mo Xie and Shang Ting both became shocked, they thought that the Elder Lin the receptionist was calling is someone that's at least 70 years of age, yet, the one that is currently approaching them is a lady that looked like 30 years old.

"Hmmp, what are you staring at me for? you also have a beauty next to you." Elder Lin spoke.

Mo Xie chuckles as he replied: "I need to Auction these things."

As he spoke, Mo Xie took out the bag he had especially prepared, inside, there are eight weapons and three scrolls, and a single piece of paper.

Elder Lin frowned: "These weapons... are ordinary mortal weapons... and the scrolls are... old?"

Mo Xie chuckles and replied: "I thought you are an appraiser? do I have to tell you the uses of each one?"

Elder Lin frowned as she replied: "No need." After that, she immediately picked up the scrolls and appraised it.

Slowly, each time Elder Lin appraised it, her eyes kept widening in shock.

"Gold grade peak level skills! Two of them!" Elder Lin exclaimed in shock.

There are many gold grade mid-level skills in the Gangting City, but those of high-level skills were limited, and for peak level, only the Ye Family, and the w.a.n.g Clan had possessed them two for the Ye Family and one for the w.a.n.g Clan, the difference between a high-level and a peak-level skill is like heaven and earth! that is the only reason that the w.a.n.g Clan had stood as the number one clan inside the Gangting City, only second to the Ye Family that had governed Gangting City for thousands of years.

Elder Lin then shuddered, thinking that there is still one more scroll in the table, her hands shook a little as she took the scroll.

"Low... Low..." Elder Lin is trembling, seeing the details of the scroll.

"Black Gold low-level martial skill!" She couldn't help but exclaim in shock, a skill like this, only the overlord of the Gangting City, the Ye Family had possessed.

"Are... Are you sure you want to Auction these?!" Elder Lin asked as she looked at Mo Xie.

Mo Xie sighed as he replied: "If you wouldn't accept it, I will gladly go to the next Auction hou-"

"No! No! We will auction it! immediately!" Elder Lin panicked as she hugged the scrolls.

"For the Auction, we usually take 10% off the total amount, but with these three, we will only take 5%!"

Mo Xie chuckles and asked: "How about the other items?"

"Other..." Elder Lin then looked at the mortal weapons laid on the table.

"Let me check first." She finally calms down as she picked the weapons and checked them one by one.

The weapons had some sort of engraving in them like ancient letters and seals, she tried hard to remember something and exclaimed: "These are artifacts! Mortal grade artifacts?!"

Mo Xie nodded his head and answered: "Yes."

"This... we will gladly sell it with only 3% off of your total profit!" Elder Lin spoke.

"Then... this paper..." Elder Lin picked up a piece of paper and, as usual, her eyes opened widely.

"Tier 3 Alchemy Pill Formulae!?"

"Mo Xie nodded his head and replied: "Yes, there are still four more hours before the auction start right? it will be great if there are more people to come."

Elder Lin already got what Mo Xie is talking about: "Don't worry, we will definitely spread the news to the whole of the Gangting City!"

"For the meantime, I will bring you to the 3rd floor and enjoy yourself and wait for the Auction to start!"

Mo Xie smiled as he nodded, Elder Lin then led the two to the top floor, making the attendants serve them like kings and queens.

Elder Lin immediately informed the head of the Dragon Gate Treasured Pavilion, her Father of the event.

The news immediately spread at a fast phase, in just an hour, the whole of Gangting City was updated, a lot of people immediately prepared to head to the Dragon Gate Treasured Pavilion with a lot of money in their bags.

Somewhere, a few people were drinking a very expensive wine.

"Just for a gold ranked peak level skill they are becoming frenzied?"

"Hahaha, Martial Brother, we're in a country b.u.mpkin City, of course, they will."

"Hmmp! Well, let's just ignore it."

"What about the Earth ranked low-level skill?"

"We lack of no such things in the sect, do not bother with it."

"Right, right, let us just enjoy our time here."
