Under the lead of a female attendant, Xiao Yan walked into the ongoing auction.
The surrounding bright environment darkened the moment he entered. Waves of noise poured into his ears from all directions, causing Xiao Yan, who liked silence, to frown.
The auction hall was huge, and it wasn't difficult for it to accommodate thousands of people. At this moment, under the light in the center of the auction hall, a beautiful woman in a red dress was explaining the function of the item in her hand to everyone in the hall with a charming voice that made people's bones go numb.
Amidst the woman's crisp and numbing voice, the price of the item that wasn't too rare was rising at a rate of 90%.
Xiao Yan found a remote spot and quietly sat down. His gaze swept over the beautiful woman in the arena. With his eyesight, he was naturally able to tell that most of the people in the arena had come for her.
Primer Auction House's auctioneer said,"Ya Fei, a beauty that almost everyone in Wu Tan City knows. That mature and enchanting charm caused many men to fall for her."
Xiao Yan, who was sitting quietly, suddenly frowned. He tilted his head slightly and looked at a man hidden in the darkness not far from his seat. At this moment, that man was looking at Ya Fei on the stage with a heated gaze. His hands were moving under his body as his red cherry lips moved slightly…
"F * ck!" Xiao Yan cursed in a low voice. Under the cloak, he rolled his eyes. This fellow was too strong.
Scolding in his heart, Xiao Yan hurriedly shifted his position and shook his head with a bitter smile. His gaze once again swept toward the high platform and eyed the red dress woman's full and exquisite curves. He softly muttered,"Demon."
Xiao Yan's gaze randomly swept over the item in Ya Fei's hand and he lost interest. He did not have that much money to buy a useless thing, even if the person auctioning it was a beautiful woman. His gaze moved away from the woman and slowly moved around the auction house.
"Uh…Father?" Xiao Yan's moving gaze suddenly paused. He glanced at a middle-aged man sitting in the front row and could not help but reveal a stunned and strange expression,"Could it be that Father is also interested in this woman?”
This strange thought only existed for an instant before it was abandoned. This was because Xiao Yan realized that his father's gaze did not pause on Ya Fei. His face was calm, as though he was waiting for something.
"What is Father doing here?" Xiao Yan muttered in his heart. His gaze swept around once again, only to be somewhat stunned to discover that the other two great clans that were equally famous as the Xiao clan, the Jia Lie clan and the Aoba clan, were both present.
"There's something about to be auctioned here that's attracting them!”Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows and rubbed his nose curiously. Just what was it that had attracted the three clan leaders?
……
It must be said that this woman called Ya Fei was an expert at stirring up the atmosphere. Every frown and smile of hers would cause the prices below the stage to soar. Every time this happened, this woman would send a charming smile to the place where the price was being raised. Immediately, the people who were still feeling the pain of raising the price immediately became spirited.
The atmosphere in the venue remained high as the charming woman covered her mouth and chuckled.
"Haha, everyone, the auction house has just received a new item. I think everyone will be interested.”Ya Fei suddenly smiled and said after auctioning off the items in her hand. She waved her hand and a servant hurriedly brought over a jade plate. There was a small white jade bottle on the plate.
"This is a tier two medicinal pill." Ya Fei's delicate hand carefully picked up the small white jade bottle. Her enchanting voice caused the auction to become quiet. A moment later, a noisy noise immediately sounded. On the Dou Qi continent, the most sought after items were the various medicinal pills refined by alchemists.
"This item is called Foundation Elixir. It is only effective for those below Dou Zhe. If you use this elixir to soak your body and train, it will allow those below Dou Zhe to train faster! Hehe, if you want your descendants to become young geniuses, don't let them go.”Her seductive red lips opened slightly, and the soft and tender sound she let out made everyone's bones go numb.
"Foundation Elixir? It could actually increase the cultivation of Dou Zhi Qi? Miss Ya Fei, a person at that stage would not be able to withstand the impact of pills, right?”Although Ya Fei was indeed beautiful and enchanting, there was no lack of calm people present. After a moment of silence, someone asked.
"Hehe, this spiritual liquid has been personally appraised by our auction house's Master Gu Ni. It is of the second grade and there will be no problems.”Ya Fei laughed.
Hearing that Master Gu Ni was going to personally appraise it, the voices in the hall immediately became much softer. Everyone knew that Master Gu Ni was a grade two alchemist. In the entire Wu Tan City, even the patriarchs of the three great clans didn't dare to show the slightest bit of neglect when they saw him.
Xiao Yan leisurely leaned on the chair and watched the lively atmosphere in the arena. His heart involuntarily sighed in relief. It seemed that this Foundation Elixir would be able to bring him quite a lot of benefits. His gaze shifted to his father without leaving a trace, only to see that his expression seemed to have suddenly become a little excited.
Xiao Yan was slightly startled. Seemingly having recalled something, his heart was somewhat moved.
"Hehe, the initial price of the spiritual liquid is 8,000 gold coins.”Ya Fei smiled as she spoke. Her gaze swept across the entire arena before finally stopping on the three clan leaders seated at the front. She clearly understood in her heart that these three were the main competitors.
"8,500!" Ya Fei's words had just sounded when someone called out a price.
"Nine thousand!" The sound of bidding followed closely behind.
……
The price on the market continued to rise. In just a moment, it had already reached the height of 13,000.
Although the expression of Xiao Yan's father was a little excited, he did not immediately bid. He closed his eyes and waited for the clamor of those small shrimps to end.
The fight continued for a while before the voice finally weakened. At the same time, an old man sitting next to Xiao Zhan said indifferently,"Twenty thousand!"
The moment the bid was called out, the voices in the venue quieted down. Some people looked at the expressionless old man and could only sit back down dejectedly. They did not have the strength to compete with the Jia Lie Clan.
"Hee hee, Jia Lie Bi, hasn't your son already advanced into a Dou Zhe? Why was he still thinking about this Foundation Elixir?”A middle-aged man turned his head and said with a fake smile.
"Ao Ba Pa, can't I buy it for my future grandson?”Jia Lie Bi was clearly not on good terms with this middle-aged man and directly sneered.
" That will have to wait until you have the good fortune. Perhaps one day, your son's life will be cut off…" Cursing in his heart, Ao Ba Pa also opened his mouth and shouted,""Twenty-three thousand!"
"Twenty-five thousand!"
……
In less than ten minutes, under the shocked gazes of everyone present, the two of them actually raised the price to 30,000 like ferocious dogs fighting for food.
"40,000!" Xiao Zhan, who had his eyes closed, suddenly spoke.
The hall suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes suddenly turned to Xiao Zhan. Even Ao Ba Pa and Jia Lie Bi were shocked by his sudden high price.
"Hehe, it seems like Patriarch Xiao is determined to obtain this Foundation Elixir.”Jia Lie Bi laughed.
Xiao Zhan glanced at him and said lightly,""If you want it, just bid for it. I definitely won't bid again.”
Jia Lie Bi's face trembled, as if he was considering the truth of Xiao Zhan's words. After a moment, he shook his head. This time, his goal was that item, not the Foundation Elixir. Spending money now was undoubtedly an unwise decision.
On the other side, when Ao Ma Pa saw Jia Lie Bi retreat, he also shrugged his shoulders. Although the Foundation Elixir was attractive, it was also not his goal, so he retreated.
"Clan Leader Xiao Zhan has bid 40,000 gold coins.”Ya Fei smiled as she looked at the calm arena.
"Since no one is bidding, then this Foundation Elixir will be purchased by Patriarch Xiao Zhan!”Seeing that no one responded, Ya Fei also stopped while she was ahead. The small hammer in her hand gently knocked on the table and confirmed the buyer.
Xiao Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry in this remote place. After all this time, he had actually extorted his father.
"Hehe, next up is the most important auction of this auction!”After receiving the jade bottle, Ya Fei waved her hand and the light on the high platform dimmed. She bent her body slightly and took out a silver plate from the platform. There was a green colored ancient scroll on the silver plate.
The scroll glowed with a faint green light. It looked rather mysterious against the silver plate.
"High Xuan Qi Method: Wind Scroll!”
