BTTH: DISCIPLE CASHBACK SYSTEM

Chapter 157: Farewell, Meeting Haibodong

After leaving the mountain valley, Gu He did not pause for a moment and headed directly towards the imperial capital.

A moment later, at the Miteer Auction House.

Upon receiving the news of Gu He's arrival, the manager of the Miteer Auction House immediately sent someone to inform Miteer Tengshan.

Ever since Gu He assisted Miteer Tengshan in refining the Qingming Life-Prolonging Pill, he had been held in high regard by the latter.

"Lord Dan King, may I inquire about the purpose of your visit?" In the VIP room, after exchanging pleasantries with Miteer Tengshan, Gu He slowly took a seat, and Miteer Tengshan cut to the chase.

Gu He lifted the tea cup on the table, took a sip, and then stated his intention, "I want to see Old Hai."

Upon hearing this, Miteer Tengshan was shaken, but he maintained a composed expression and said, "Lord Dan King, you jest. As everyone knows, Old Hai has been missing for over a decade. In all these years, our Miteer family has never given up the search, but there has been no news."

Towards the end, Miteer Tengshan even sighed, appearing quite despondent.

If Gu He hadn't separated his soul power the moment he arrived in the capital, sensing Haibodong's aura within the Miteer family, he might have been deceived by Miteer Tengshan's appearance.

"Chief Tengshan, if I didn't have certainty, would I rashly propose to see Old Hai? I hope Chief Tengshan can inform Old Hai on my behalf. Just tell him that Gu He wants to see him, and he will definitely come," Gu He said with a calm tone.

Could it be that he truly knew that Old Hai had returned?

Looking at Gu He's confident demeanor, Miteer Tengshan was momentarily stunned, feeling a sense of doubt.

After all, it had been less than three days since Old Hai's return, and he had issued strict orders not to disclose any information about him to the outside world.

How did Gu He come to know?

Could it be that someone had leaked information about Old Hai?

Various thoughts flashed through Miteer Tengshan's mind, but in the end, he refused Gu He's request and excused himself, "Lord Dan King, I hope you forgive me. If our Miteer family finds Old Hai, we will surely inform you."

Seeing Miteer Tengshan repeatedly refusing him, Gu He's heart turned slightly cold. He was no longer interested in dragging things out with the other party and said coldly, "Chief Tengshan, perhaps Old Hai didn't tell you. Without my help, he might never have returned in his lifetime."

"Whether Old Hai has returned or not, I know more than you do." Gu He forcefully put down the teacup in his hand, staring fixedly at Miteer Tengshan.

"This..." Gu He's words were astonishing, and Miteer Tengshan, looking at Gu He's attitude, was suddenly filled with uncertainty.

Did Old Hai really return because of his assistance?

At this moment, he suddenly remembered that Gu He had left the Cloud Mist Sect for about a month recently.

And not long after Gu He returned to the Cloud Mist Sect, Old Hai successfully came back.

The timing of their returns seemed to be not much different.

Could it be that everything Gu He said was true?

In an instant, various thoughts flashed through Miter Tengshan's mind. Then, he glanced at the indifferent Gu He and secretly made a decision.

"Dan King, I apologize. I will go inform Elder Hai right away." A smile quickly appeared on Miter Tengshan's face, finally acknowledging that Elder Hai had returned.

Gu He, upon hearing this, nodded slightly. He picked up the teacup on the table again and casually said, "Go ahead, please inform Elder Hai. I have important matters to discuss with him."

"Please wait a moment, Dan King."

Miter Tengshan nodded, and then, accompanied by a steward from the Miter Tel Auction House, he left the auction house directly.

After Miteer Tengshan left, only Gu He and a steward from the Miteer Auction House remained in the VIP room.

"When is the next auction?" Gu He asked casually, taking a sip of tea and looking at the steward beside him.

The steward respectfully replied, "Returning to Dan King, there will be a regional-level auction in half a month."

In the imperial capital's Miteer Auction House, auctions were divided into four levels like martial arts levels: Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow.

Among them, Heaven was the highest, but Heaven-level auctions were rare and might not happen even once in a year or two. However, when they did occur, it meant that the items to be auctioned were of great significance, attracting powerful individuals and leaders from almost half of the Gamma Empire.

Regional-level auctions were also rare, Profound-level auctions were more common, and Yellow-level auctions were open all the time.

Upon hearing this, Gu He became somewhat interested. Regional-level auctions should have some good items.

What Gu He had in mind was not for himself. With an increasing number of disciples under his sect, he lacked suitable treasures to bestow upon them. Thus, he thought that in the regional-level auction, there might be suitable treasures to acquire and then bestow upon his disciples.

The last time, Gu He had acquired a fifth-grade magic core armor, the Ice Heart Armor, which he bestowed upon the Little Medical Fairy. In return, he received the Ice Mystic Saint Armor, which had proven to be extremely helpful in the Tagor Desert.

Thinking about this, Gu He said to the steward, "Bring me the list of items for the next auction."

The steward was momentarily surprised, then hesitated for a moment before taking out a list from the storage ring and respectfully handing it to Gu He. "Please review it, Dan King."

Gu He took the list and examined it carefully. There weren't many items on the list, and Gu He quickly finished reading it. From his perspective, these items were quite ordinary, but from the perspective of the Little Medical Fairy and others, one or two items seemed decent.

One was a dozen or so eggs of Shadow Poison Insects. These insects, originating from the Cloud Empire, were comparable to fourth-grade magical beasts. They excelled in stealth and could deliver unexpected fatal blows.

The other item was a fifth-grade magic core weapon, a wind attribute sword. It would be suitable for Nalan Yanran.

After reading the list, Gu He handed it back to the steward and waited quietly for the arrival of Hai Bo Dong.

After a while, Gu He sensed someone approaching, and then an old man in gray robes slowly entered the VIP room.

Looking at the old man in gray robes, a smile appeared on Gu He's face.

"Hai, we meet again."
