"That's right. I heard there will be a fifth - grade pill tonight. We can't wait any longer," some noble young masters said with a smile.
"I'm determined to get that pill tonight," Feng Qing said, her eyes ablaze with excitement.
She had heard about the fifth - grade pill before, so she asked her mother for a large amount of silver.
"However, many people are here tonight because of the fifth - grade pill and the magic core. The price will surely be high," Meng Yuanhang scanned the surroundings and found that none of the people present were ordinary.
It would definitely take some strength to bid against these people.
"We should first see what kind of pill it is. If it's useless for your finger, we can consider the magic core. After all, the magic core can help with cultivation and improve one's strength," Xia Yujia knew that Feng Qing wanted the fifth - grade pill to treat her finger.
"Your younger sister has her eye on your pill," Mo Xuanye suddenly said to Feng Yuqin, who was having snacks.
Feng Yuqin was taken aback and looked at Mo Xuanye, asking, "How do you know?"
Dongfang Zhi laughed on the side, "He eavesdropped."
Mo Xuanye shot him a glare.
"Qin'er, they didn't deliberately lower their voices. I heard them openly," Mo Xuanye said seriously.
Feng Yuqin blinked and asked curiously, "So no matter how noisy it is below, you can still hear what Feng Qing is saying?"
Actually, she knew that Feng Qing wanted to bid for her pill, but she didn't hear it. Instead, she read Feng Qing's lips while having snacks.
Dongfang Zhi said with a grin again, "Miss Feng, you really underestimate your husband."
Mo Xuanye was originally quite dissatisfied with Dongfang Zhi's interruption.
But the word "husband" instantly extinguished the anger that was about to flare up in Mo Xuanye.
"He's not my husband yet. What are you talking nonsense about?" Feng Yuqin stared at Dongfang Zhi and asked.
"Not yet?" Dongfang Zhi started to nitpick, "So it won't be long before he is?"
Mo Xuanye thought that Dongfang Zhi's presence tonight was finally a bit useful.
Feng Yuqin grabbed a snack in front of her and threw it at him, "Even so many snacks can't shut your mouth."
Dongfang Zhi burst into laughter.
Feng Yuqin looked at Mo Xuanye and asked, "Can you hear what the crown prince and princess in the opposite private room are talking about?"
Mo Xuanye curled his lips slightly, "The crown prince wants the magic core. Although the princess also wants the magic core, her main goal is the two kinds of medicinal herbs you've set your eyes on."
Feng Yuqin narrowed her eyes slightly. It seemed that Yun Ningshuang valued the alchemist more. It was destined to be a head - on confrontation tonight, because she was also determined to get those two kinds of medicinal herbs.
"The first item tonight is a low - grade storage bag. The starting price is 500 gold coins," Nightingale's voice rang out.
Someone quickly shouted a price, "1000 gold coins."
"1200."
"3000 gold coins."
"5000."
Finally, the low - grade storage bag went to the person who bid 5000 gold coins.
"Xiaojin, what grade was my previous storage bag?" Feng Yuqin asked.
"Medium - grade," Xiaojin replied, "I have a lot of storage bags here. If you don't want them, you can take them out for auction."
Feng Yuqin said, "No need. I plan to give those storage bags as rewards to the people around me."
After all, it would be more convenient to store things with a storage bag.
"The second item tonight is a weapon, the Star - Moon Sword," Nightingale said, "This sword was discovered by our people in a secret realm. We hope it will meet its fated owner tonight. The starting price of this sword is 10,000 gold coins."
Everyone got excited when they heard Nightingale's words.
"I'll offer 20,000," a man shouted.
"30,000," Xia Yujia shouted.
"50,000," Yun Ningshuang's voice came from the opposite private room.
Feng Yuqin saw that Xia Yujia didn't raise the price after Yun Ningshuang shouted.
No one else raised the price either.
After all, some people still took Yun Ningshuang's identity into consideration.
At this moment, Yun Ningshuang appeared in front of the window. Feng Yuqin saw a smug look on her face.
"Master, this princess doesn't seem like a good person at all," Xiaoying frowned when she saw Yun Ningshuang's undisguised smug look.
Feng Yuqin raised her eyebrows, "What? Aren't you afraid of Mo Xuanye anymore?"
"I was quite afraid before, but now I see that he cares a lot about you. As long as he doesn't want you to be unhappy, he will surely love me for your sake," Xiaoying said with his own strange logic. It wasn't until later that he realized he was really too naive.
Feng Yuqin: "..."
"The third item is a material for weapon refinement, the Flame Beast Bone. The starting price is the same as that of the Star - Moon Sword, 10,000 gold coins," Nightingale giggled, "This is a great material for weapon refinement. Don't miss it, everyone."
Finally, the Flame Beast Bone was bought by a black - clothed man for 50,000 gold coins.
After four or five treasures were auctioned off, Feng Yuqin's pill came up.
"Aqin, your pill is up," Meng Xingyu saw the porcelain bottle. He had personally taken it to the auction house.
"The exciting moment has arrived," Nightingale began to stir up the crowd's emotions, "Everyone should know that the highest - level alchemist in the Western Song Kingdom is a third - level alchemist. But today, this fifth - grade Returning Yuan Pill can only be refined by a fifth - level alchemist. So this pill is priceless. If you miss tonight, you don't know when the next high - grade pill like this will appear. I won't say much. Otherwise, you'll be impatient. The starting price is 500,000 gold coins."
"I'll offer 600,000."
"700,000," another man said.
Feng Yuqin didn't expect the price of the pill to increase by 100,000 each time.
This scene really surprised her.
Feng Yuqin curled her lips slightly, "Are pills so valuable?"
Hearing this, Meng Xingyu immediately explained to her, "Aqin, it's very difficult to become an alchemist. Many people can't even condense flames, let alone refine pills. So if a family has an alchemist, it's like having a money - making tree."
"So I'm also a money - making tree?" Feng Yuqin said, stroking her chin.
"That's right. You're my family's money - making tree," Mo Xuanye said affectionately, never missing an opportunity to include her in his own sphere.
"You're an alchemist?" Dongfang Zhi asked in surprise.
Feng Yuqin looked at him, "What? Don't I look like one?"
"You do," Dongfang Zhi said, "So you're really a money - making tree. Listen to what price they've bid below."
"I'll offer 2 million," Yun Ningshuang's voice rang out. At the same time, she leaned forward and glanced casually at the people below.
She looked as if she was saying, I want this pill. Who dares to compete with me?
Unfortunately, Yun Ningshuang was going to be disappointed this time.
The air was only silent for a moment. Then the black - clothed man who had bought the weapon - refinement material before spoke up, "2.5 million."
"How dare you compete with me," Yun Ningshuang said angrily.
Feng Yuqin let out a soft laugh, "Does this Yun Ningshuang never suffer setbacks? Does she think everyone should give in to her?"
