“Everyone!”
The scene gradually quietened down. Everyone’s gaze gathered on the host, Changming, in the middle of the stage.
“Today, we have gathered everyone here because our Golden Bamboo Mountain has attracted many treasures. We have also been under your care during this period of time. I hope that everyone can buy treasures here.”
The crowded people below were more or less impatient when they heard Chang Ming’s nonsense.
“Cut the crap and bring that treasure up early. Everyone is waiting.”
“It’s best to take out a few more fire spirit fruits to show your sincerity. What’s the point of being so muddle-headed every day?”
“That’s right. That Fire Spirit Fruit hasn’t appeared for many days. Can your Golden Bamboo Mountain still get it? Do you not have any now?”
“Can the Fire Spirit Fruit still appear? Could it be a show directed by you?”
Over the past few days, many people had vaguely guessed.
Back then, these two fire spirit fruits were snatched away by that crazy old man as soon as they were released. Moreover, the forces behind this crazy old man were complicated. No one knew which side he was on.
What if this crazy old man was with them and deliberately made such a thing?
Seeing the situation below, Changming gradually pressed his hands down unsteadily. A graceful woman slowly walked out with a red cloth bag.
“Everyone, don’t panic! There will definitely be more giant spirit fruits in the future. Why don’t you take a look at such a treasure today?”
After Changming took the box, he lifted the red cloth on it.
“Everyone, take a look at what this is.”
With a move of his finger, he opened a crack. A very dense fire-attribute spiritual energy immediately rushed around.
This spiritual energy bounced back and forth above the entire area. In a short while, it turned into a huge fireball that jumped around in the sky.
Wherever it passed, everyone avoided it.
Just as Changming was watching the fireball run amok, a figure covered in a black cloak suddenly reached out and sucked the huge fireball into an abyss.
Li Yuanqing kept staring. Although that person was covered in a black cloak, his hand was abnormally fair when he came out just now. He did not look like a man.
“Master Changming, there’s no need to be mysterious. How much is this Fire Spirit Pill? Name your price.”
Changming smiled at the person below and said to everyone, “These Fire Spirit Pills are rare items. In addition, there are sixty of them in this box.”
“Wow.”
“Such a huge number?”
“But are there really sixty?”
“If there are really sixty, I want them!”
“It’s not your turn.”
The black-robed man in front slowly sat down.
Changming looked at the enthusiastic people below and slowly said, “Everyone, you might not know much about this Fire Spirit Pill now. I have to remind you that this Fire Spirit Pill comes from the same client as that huge spirit fruit.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“What?”
“Who is it?”
“Hurry up and invite this expert out!”
“Is this master here again today?”
The ground below was in chaos.
Li Yuanqing looked helplessly at Changming on the stage.
Those two fellows said that he had a way to sell the Fire Spirit Pill for a high price. He thought that it would be a good idea, but he did not expect it to be this method.
Changming made a hush gesture.
“Everyone!”
The crowd below immediately fell silent. They looked at Changming carefully, waiting for him to announce the identity of that master.
“Everyone, calm down. This master has always lived in seclusion in the deep mountains and is not good at interacting with others. He also doesn’t want to reveal his identity. Therefore, I advise everyone not to have such thoughts. You only need to know that this master has already made a promise and will always trade with our Golden Bamboo Mountain. That’s enough.”
His words directly pulled Li Yuanqing onto their side. In addition, Li Yuanqing was so low-key that their Golden Bamboo Mountain black market suddenly had a big signboard.
“Stop fooling me.”
There were even some who shouted at Li Yuanqing.
“Master! If you can cooperate with my Cloud Sky Sect, my Cloud Sky Sect can directly provide an elder seat!”
“Don’t listen to his nonsense. Come to our Mountain Fire Sect! You’ll be the Deputy Sect Master!”
“What are you all arguing about? Master is a hidden expert and is not in the mood to join your lousy sects! However, my bones are amazing. I’ve been called a genius since I was young. If Master can take me in as a disciple, in the future, Master’s skills will definitely spread throughout the world!”
The various crowds below immediately fell into chaos.
Li Yuanqing couldn’t help but think when he heard these shouts.
Was his Fire Spirit Fruit taken out? It was too abrupt. Their conditions were getting more and more ridiculous. If his identity was exposed, wouldn’t he really become the target of everyone?
Seeing that the shouting below was almost over, Changming still maintained his smile on the stage. However, there was still some worry between his brows. He could not help but look at Li Yuanqing.
After Changming controlled his emotions, he said to the people below, “These sixty Fire Spirit Pills are in good condition. Sell them for three hundred spirit stones!”
“I’ll pay five hundred spirit stones!”
The person who spoke was the black-robed man sitting at the front.
His voice sounded very hoarse, but it gave off an unreal feeling.
“I say, does Miss Wang have to be so ruthless? Can you give us brothers a chance?”
“That’s right. Your asking price is too ruthless. How can these brothers compete with you when you raised it by two hundred spirit stones?”
Seeing that many people around him could recognize him, the black-robed man did not hide anything.
She threw her cloak to the side, revealing a graceful figure. She was wearing a light yellow dress and her head was covered in colorful flowers. There was a short sword at her waist.
She turned around and her pink face was flushed as she looked behind her aggressively. The cultivators warned, “I’m going to take the Fire Spirit Pill today!”
When the cultivators behind heard her words, they only dared to complain softly.
“Fine, then. Do you have to be so threatening?”
“If it’s not because of your old man, who would give you this face?”
“These people from the big clans are really getting more and more impudent.”
They only dared to mutter softly, but someone from the VIP area in front stood up and looked at Miss Wang. “Miss Wang, your family has as many Fire Spirit Pills as you want. Why do you want this?”
“Why do you care?”
This person could not keep the coldness on his face after being rebuked by the Wang clan’s young lady. He snorted and showed his stance.
“Why? I’m the Young Sect Master of Fang North Mountain. Does Miss Wang not take me seriously at all?”
The Young Sect Master also took off his mask. He was a handsome young master.
He waved an elegant fan and looked at Miss Wang unkindly.
“Fang Zhou, stop pretending. Let’s talk about it when you can break through to the Supremacy realm. Why don’t you go home and cultivate with your current cultivation level? How dare you come outside?”
“You!”
Fang Zhou almost could not breathe after being rebuked by this Miss Wang.
His face immediately turned red. He gritted his teeth for a long time before finally suppressing a smile. He looked at the Miss of the Wang clan and said, “Wang Susu! Don’t be rude to me here! I just disdain to argue with a woman. When I break through to the Supremacy realm, it will be the time for me to take you in as my dual cultivation partner!”
This Miss Wang’s name was Wang Susu.
When Wang Susu heard this, she was immediately furious. She waved her hands, and a huge fire phoenix appeared out of thin air, filling the entire hall.
Master Wuyan hurriedly jumped out from behind and sprinkled a handful of white fog down, freezing the fire phoenix and slowly dissipating.
“Miss Wang, why are you doing this? The two of you are both from large sects. Why are you getting angry at my small auction?”
Wang Susu held the short sword and glared at Fang Zhou. “You’re lucky today. If you were to encounter me elsewhere, you’ll definitely suffer!”
“Hmph!” Fang Zhou did not lower his stance. He looked at Wang Susu with a wicked smile. His eyes also roamed around Wang Susu’s body fearlessly. “Wang Susu, I’m also warning you not to bump into me outside. Otherwise, don’t blame me for proposing to Uncle Wang after I’m done!”
“You!”
Wang Susu was furious by his words.
Just as she was about to flare up again, Master Wuyan hurriedly comforted her.
“Miss Wang, don’t be angry. Since you’re already here in the auction house, you naturally want to obtain the treasure. Now that the treasure is in front of you, why fight for it?”
Fang Zhou looked at Wang Susu’s angry expression with a smug expression. He had already achieved his goal. Therefore, he slowly sat down again and fanned himself proudly.
“Six hundred spirit stones!”
When Wang Susu heard his bid, she immediately stretched out a big palm.
“Seven hundred spirit stones!”
Fang Zhou closed the paper fan and clapped his hands together.
“No matter how good the quality of this Fire Spirit Pill is, it’s only worth about a dozen spirit stones. I think these qualities are only so-so. It’s already a good price to sell it for seven to eight spirit stones. Our Miss Wang is willing to pay seven hundred spirit stones for sixty spirit stones. She’s really generous.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWang Susu’s price pushed everyone else down.
Those itinerant cultivators did not have the strength of such a large family. The price had already reached such a ridiculous level, so it was not something they could participate in.
Fang Zhou looked at Changming in the stands and reminded him, “Master Changming, Miss Wang has already raised the price to this point. Don’t tell me you’re still waiting for someone to raise the price?”
“Miss Wang, you’re really forthright!” Changming smiled at Wang Susu and said, “However, I still have to remind you at home. Actually, our auction house has a total of 200 pills on hand. We’re divided into three batches. There are still 140 pills left.”
“What?”
“There are actually so many at once?”
“This is really a huge amount.”
“If only there were more. I’m afraid we won’t be able to fight for it today.”
“What a pity. Too many descendants of the aristocratic families came today, but there’s nothing for us.”
Changming smiled and took out a small hammer. He gently knocked it in the air, and a strange energy fluctuation spread out.
“Seven hundred spirit stones once!”
“Seven hundred spirit stones twice!”
“Seven hundred spirit stones going thrice!”
“Deal! Congratulations to Miss Wang for obtaining the first box of Fire Spirit Pills!”
Only then did Wang Susu sit down. She crossed her arms proudly and looked at the stage.
Beside her, a middle-aged man bent down and whispered something.
Wang Susu raised a hand and said a few words firmly before falling silent.
Li Yuanqing sat at the back and observed carefully. He could see everyone’s every move. He was more or less curious about Miss Wang.
Originally, he had only expected to sell it for five to six spirit stones. However, who knew that it would be sold for such a high price? This shocked Li Yuanqing. Perhaps it was because this spirit stone was related to the Giant Spirit Fruit.
However, this was only the two of them bragging.
Among Li Yuanqing’s batch of Fire Spirit Pills, there were some that were refined with ordinary Fire Spirit Fruits. Although he had also used two huge spirit fruits, they were not pure Giant Spirit Fruits.
Was this also suspicious of fraud?
Just as Li Yuanqing thought this, he thought about it and realized that this matter was exaggerated by Master Wuyan and the others. It had nothing to do with him.
After the opening sixty Fire Spirit Pills was an ancient long rope Dharma artifact.
It was said that this long rope came from a famous person. However, because it was a little damaged, it was not sold for a good price. In the end, it was only sold for sixty spirit stones.
Then, another compass was placed. It was said to be able to search for treasures in the world. A Dharma artifact of this nature actually had a unique refinement method. It was difficult to say how effective it was.
Li Yuanqing took advantage of the fact that the auction was going enthusiastically in the middle to sneak out from the small passageway at the back. In the end, he circled around and quietly sneaked into the back of the stage from the other side.
When Master Wuyan saw Li Yuanqing enter, he immediately welcomed him happily.
Li Yuanqing was frightened by today’s situation. He quietly said to Master Wuyan, “I’ll leave the spirit stones from today’s auction in your place first. I’ll come and take them another day.”
“Brother Zhao, why are you in a hurry to leave? There might be 1,500 spirit stones this time. This is not a small sum.”
“It’s fine. I’ll leave it with you for the time being.”
“In that case, I’ll take care of it for you.”
After Li Yuanqing finished instructing, he carefully walked out from another passageway. A gaze slowly followed Li Yuanqing’s back and landed on the darkness of the passageway.
