Chapter 163: The Tripod of the Western Queen!

Chapter 163 The Tripod of the Western Queen!

As an old saying goes, the more the mother-in-law looked at her son-in-law, the more she liked him.

Chu Xun was a famous figure now, and he was well-known both in the Martial Tao world and the secular world.

“Please take good care of Xiaowu in the future.”

Yan Lan said that to Chu Xun. Chu Xun was very outstanding, so she was very pleased with him.

“That’s all?” Long Ao was confused.

When he heard Long Ao’s words, Chu Xun’s eyes widened. What the hell did the shameless old man want to do?

The others were also greatly disappointed when they saw Chu Xun getting Yan Lan’s approval so easily. They wanted to see Yan Lan making things difficult for Chu Xun on purpose.

“Sister Yan Lan, isn’t it too hasty for you to hand over your daughter to him so easily? He is definitely not a good person. He is cunning. I swear I am not lying,” Long Ao said maliciously.

Chu Xun raised his eyebrows and held Long Ao in contempt in his heart. Long Ao was nearly two hundred years old, but he actually addressed Yan Lan as sister. He was really shameless.

Yan Lan was also from a wealthy and influential family. Her personality was mild and warm, so she just smiled without saying anything when she heard Long Ao’s words.

Hua Qingwu blinked mischievously and said, “Elder Long, Chu Xun just knocked you unconscious with a coat hanger. Is that the reason why you are so vengeful toward him?”

What?

The group of people immediately became interested and looked at Long Ao with schadenfreude.

Long Ao blushed with embarrassment. That was the ultimate shame and stain of his life. He had lived for nearly two hundred years, but he had actually been knocked unconscious by someone. Each time he thought of that, he would have a headache.

“No wonder Elder Long’s head was swollen a few days ago. I thought he had been bitten by mosquitoes!” Chen Hanlong muttered.

The corners of everyone’s mouths twitched. What kind of mosquito could make his head swell so badly? They all knew that Chen Hanlong had said that on purpose.

“Elder Long, has your head recovered yet? I have the Immortal Water. Whether you apply it to your head or take it, you will recover very quickly as long as you use it.” Chen Hanlong spoke again.

“It turns out that Elder Long had been knocked by Sir, so his head was swollen. I thought he was gifted and his head was different from ours!” Sun Ying also seized the opportunity to tease Long Ao.

Long Ao was so angry so that there seemed to be smoke coming out of his head and there was a humming noise from his nose.

He wanted to take the opportunity to tease Chu Xun, but unexpectedly, the tables were turned and he was teased by others.

“As the saying goes, one takes on the behavior of one’s company. You have spent a lot of time with Chu Xun, so you are not good people anymore.” Long Ao swung his arms in anger and was about to leave.

“Wait!” Chu Xun remembered he had something to ask Long Ao.

“What is the matter?” Long Ao was angry and he had an awkward expression on his face.

“Please don’t be angry. I have something to ask you.” Chu Xun took out the painting he had taken from Golden Knife Sect and asked, “Have you seen this before?”

Chu Xun pointed at the furnace in the painting and asked. In his view, Long Ao had lived for nearly two hundred years and perhaps he knew something about it.

Chen Hanlong and the others also came forward to take a look out of curiosity.

“What is this? An incense burner?” Chen Hanlong muttered, “But this incense burner is a bit too big!”

“Brother Long, this is a tripod. It looks the same as other tripods with three legs.” Sun Ying corrected Chen Hanlong’s mistake.

“Brother Ying, you said that it looks the same as other tripods with three legs? But it has four legs, doesn’t it?” Titan asked.

Huh?

Sun Ying rolled his eyes and said, “You idiot, I did not say that there is no tripod with four legs.”

“I see!” Titan scratched his head and looked very silly.

Chen Hanlong’s face was full of disdain and he said, “Don’t talk nonsense. I am sure it is an incense burner. It seems to have existed for a long time. It is an antique and should be worth a lot of money.”

Sun Ying was about to retort when he saw that Chen Hanlong was glaring at him.

Sun Ying immediately lost his courage and said with an embarrassed smile, “Brother Long is right. It is an incense burner, an incense burner...”

Chen Hanlong could not help feeling complacent.

Chu Xun smiled and pushed away Chen Hanlong’s head. He looked at Long Ao and asked, “Do you have any information about it?”

Long Ao frowned and thought for a while. Then he blurted out, “Is this a furnace?”

Chu Xun nodded. It seemed that Long Ao was indeed knowledgeable. Chu Xun then looked at Long Ao with hope in his eyes.

Long Ao was deep in thought as he stroked his beard.

After a long time, he said, “I have only heard about this furnace from my teacher, but I have never seen one before.”

Chu Xun almost spat out a mouthful of blood. “If you know nothing about it, why did you pretend to be deep in thought?”

“What is a furnace?” Chen Hanlong was curious.

“Brother Long, the furnace... is the furnace used to store pills...” Sun Ying shook his head and explained.

“F*ck off!” Chen Hanlong laughed and scolded. He knew that Sun Ying was talking nonsense.

Chu Xun was a little disappointed. Since even Long Ao knew nothing about it, it seemed like he was not fated to have this furnace.

“I have seen it before.” Yan Lan, who was sitting aside, suddenly said.

Everyone, including Chu Xun, looked at her in surprise.

“Mother, where have you seen it before?” Hua Qingwu asked. She realized that this item was very important to Chu Xun.

Yan Lan returned to the room. After a while, she came out with a tablet and then held it up in front of everyone. A piece of news was shown on the screen, and there was a picture of a four-legged furnace.

Chu Xun suddenly stood up, his eyes ablaze, which startled the other people.

Although the illustration of the furnace on the screen was a little blurry, Chu Xun was sure that it was the same as the furnace in the painting.

But when he saw the news header, the corners of his mouth twitched violently.

‘The Famous Collector, Mr. Luo Yunhan, Will Auction the Most Treasured Collection in His Life, the Tripod of the Western Queen.’

The introduction given was more interesting. It said that this tripod had been used by the legendary queen to burn incense. It had been passed on for thousands of years and had a long history. It was a divine object.

Of course, this was just a gimmick.

“Hanlong, please help me book a ticket to Yunyan City.” Chu Xun ordered.

The auction would be held at the Linghang Auction House in Yunyan City at one o’clock in the afternoon, the day after tomorrow.

“I want to go with you,” Hua Qingwu said in a sweet voice.

“Okay.” Chu Xun did not refuse. The Hua Family was in Yunyan City. If Hua Qingwu went with him, it could save him a lot of trouble.

“I want to go and have a look too,” Long Ao said.

Sun Ying, Titan, and the others also stretched their necks, their faces full of hope.

“All of you have to stay behind to keep watch. The Qianlong Mount Villas project is about to be finished. After I come back, let us have a celebratory party.” Chu Xun waved his hand and made the final decision.

“Boy, you...”

Before Long Ao could finish his words, he was interrupted by Chu Xun. “If you want to break through, you had better stay here.”

When he heard what Chu Xun said, Long Ao stopped talking and only craned his neck. He snorted angrily twice and no longer mentioned that he also wanted to go to Yunyan City.

Long Ao had been a grandmaster of Eighth Grade for more than ten years and was unable to break through to the next level. Since Chu Xun could help him break through the bottleneck, he would suppress his anger for the time being. After all, he would have plenty of time to teach him a lesson in the future.

...

In the afternoon of that day, Chu Xun and Hua Qingwu flew to Yunyan City by plane.

Everything was fine along the way.

When they got out of the airport, Hua Sheng was already waiting there.

“Sir!” Hua Sheng greeted Chu Xun respectfully.

Chu Xun nodded in response.

They got into the car and started their journey.

“Sir, I have done what you told me to do.” Hua Sheng said as he handed Chu Xun an invitation.

Chu Xun looked through it and put it aside.

“Sir, all the important people in Yunyan City have been invited by the Linghang Auction House, including people of the Hua Family,” Hua Sheng said.

Chu Xun raised his eyebrows and asked, “Have you checked the background of the Linghang Auction House?”

“I did, but... I did not find anything,” said Hua Sheng ashamedly.

“If so, there are only two possibilities. The one is that the Linghang Auction House is just an ordinary auction house without any background, and the other is that its background is too formidable, so you were not able to find anything.” Hua Qingwu said, her eyes sparkling with wisdom.

“So many people have received invitations, and what are their responses?” Chu Xun asked faintly.

“If everything goes well, everyone who has been invited this time will be present at the auction.”

“Really?” Chu Xun raised his eyebrows and asked. He was a little surprised.

Hua Sheng opened the file bag next to him and took out something that seemed to be a brief introduction. He handed it over with both hands and said, “Please have a look, Sir.”

Chu Xun took it and glanced at it. Then he could not help sitting up straight.

This was an introduction to the Tripod of the Western Queen. Luo Yunhan was not only a collector, but also an expert in famous cultural relics. He was also a visiting professor of many universities and had a high prestige in the field of cultural relics and antiques.

Luo Yunhan said that the Tripod of the Western Queen had a magical effect. The medicine decocted in the tripod with ordinary medicinal herbs could cure all diseases, prolong one’s life, and make people regain their youth.

Luo Yunhan himself was the most powerful testimony to that fact. Luo Yunhan was over 60 years old this year, but his face was ruddy and handsome and there was not a single strand of white hair among his black hair. He looked 40 years old at most.

He admitted that all his changes were because he had drunk medicine that had been decocted in the Tripod of the Western Queen. Besides, he also took out the photos taken a few years ago to compare his former appearance with the present appearance. At that time, he was indeed white-haired, something which many of his students could attest to.

Chu Xun believed that the medicine in the furnace had the effect of prolonging life, because the Immortal Water also had this effect, and it was much stronger than the medicine made by the furnace. But it was a bit ridiculous to say that it could make people regain their youth.

However, most of the people believed that. Regaining their youth was equivalent to rebirth and rebirth was equivalent to immortality. Even First Emperor of Qin, who had unified the six countries, could not resist such kind of temptation, let alone ordinary people.
