Chapter 117 - Scamming Is Healthier
This was a top-grade item.
It had to be known that the Martial Monarch Realm Blood Pill was refined with the blood essence of a Martial Monarch Realm expert. On the other hand, the Martial Monarch Realm Blood Pill could allow one to increase their cultivation by a small realm without any side effects.
What about the Martial Monarch Realm marrow?
Since Martial Monarch Realm marrow was several times stronger than blood essence, if it was refined into a medicinal pill, its might would probably be much stronger than the Martial Monarch Realm Blood Pill.
Moreover, this jade was so tattered that even if it was auctioned, it would probably only be sold for a few thousand mid-grade spirit stones. This was already considered expensive.
Thus, it could be imagined how much Lin Fei could profit from this item.
Indeed, the methods of hackers were never reasonable.
After feeling displeased and disdainful, Lu Xiaoran took out the Martial Monarch Realm marrow from the jade.
Because he was powerful enough, the attendant of the auction was unable to see his actions at all.
“This piece of jade was picked up by a cultivator outside a Martial Monarch Realm ruin. We’ve investigated it. Although we don’t know what’s inside, I think it’s not an ordinary piece.”
Lu Xiaoran smiled calmly.
This was naturally not an ordinary item. After all, it contained the Martial Monarch Realm marrow. Even a Heaven Realm, no, Saint Realm item was not as valuable as it.
However, now… after he had extracted the Martial Monarch Realm Marrow, it had really become trash.
“I don’t know if it’s ordinary or not. I just want something practical.”
With that said, he casually threw the jade back and chose some other medicinal pills and weapons to complete the exchange.
Then, Lu Xiaoran left the backstage of the auction and arrived at the auction hall outside to gather with Ji Wuxia.
“Master, the auction is about to begin.”
Lu Xiaoran nodded.
“Did you bring any spirit stones?”
“I did, but it’s not a lot. It’s only 30,000 to 40,000 high-grade spirit stones. It’s all my savings over the years.”
“That’s enough.”
Lu Xiaoran also had some savings, roughly 1.1 million high-grade spirit stones.
He was prepared to give Lin Fei a good show.
Soon, the auction officially began.
In the previous few rounds, the items being auctioned were all small and boring. Lu Xiaoran did not even take a look, but these people were fighting with relish.
Then, the good stuff gradually came.
Firstly, it was a high-grade Earth Realm defensive Dharma treasure, the Purple Gold Lock Armor. When worn, it could avoid the wind and fire lightning, increase the speed of absorption of spirit energy, and even resist some attacks.
Seeing this, Lu Xiaoran directly closed his eyes and blocked his six senses. He looked up and leaned back in his chair to rest.
“In a while, when they start bidding for a lousy jade, remember to tell me.”
“Yes, Master.”
After Ji Wuxia replied, the people beside her had already started bidding crazily. “I’ll pay 15,000 high-grade spirit stones.”
“I’ll pay 20,000 high-grade spirit stones.”
“I’ll pay 23,000 high-grade spirit stones and 500 top-grade spirit stones.”
These people shouted in a frenzy, and it could be said that they were all doing their best. They wished for nothing more than to fight a life and death battle on the spot.
If not for the fact that this was the Great Zhou Imperial City Auction, these people might have directly started fighting.
However, even so, the popularity of this item was still rather high.
It was only after an entire incense stick of time did the fighting finally end. Only then was it obtained by a Void Reversion Realm expert.
Looking at the other party’s silly smile, he seemed like a child who had obtained a beloved toy.
In the First Heaven Private Room, Princess Ruyang smiled calmly and said,
“Unfortunately, it’s only a high-grade Earth Realm weapon. If it were a high-grade Heaven Realm weapon, I would definitely bid for it and give it to Brother Lin Fei to make a suitable weapon.”
Lin Fei did not answer her. He only looked down at Ji Wuxia’s back.
He originally thought that Ji Wuxia might secretly turn around to look at him.
However, he did not expect Ji Wuxia to not even have the intention to take a look. This made Lin Fei feel inexplicably disappointed.
It was as if defeating Ji Wuxia was meaningless.
This was not what he had expected. Didn’t women look up to the strong?
After defeating Ji Wuxia, Ji Wuxia should have wanted to rely on him. She should even regret breaking off the engagement with him back then.
However, why did Ji Wuxia seem to not care at
all?
This made Lin Fei feel helpless.
However, he did not have the time to think because the main event had already begun.
“This is an ancient jade. It comes from a Martial Monarch Realm ruin. After our appraisal, we found that this ancient jade is very valuable. Its starting price is zero, but every bid must be at least 100 high-grade spirit stones higher than the last. The bidding begins now.”
“I’ll pay 1,000 high-grade spirit stones.”
As soon as he finished speaking, someone shouted.
This price was not much. The other party was only bidding casually.
As soon as he finished shouting, a proud voice sounded from the Heaven Room.
“2,000 high-grade spirit stones.”
As soon as he said this, it immediately attracted the attention of many people.
“It’s from the First Heaven Private Room. Isn’t that the room where Princess Ruyang and Lin Fei are?”
“It’s them. I didn’t expect Princess Ruyang to fancy such a small piece of lousy jade.” “It’s better for us to not snatch it from Princess Ruyang. After all, that thing is not a good thing to begin with. It’s also a waste for us to take it.”
In this way, everyone quickly reached an agreement.
They had all decided to give this crappy stone to Princess Ruyang and Lin Fei.
In the First Heaven Private Room, the corner of Lin Fei’s mouth had already curled up slightly.
He did not expect to obtain this ancient jade so easily.
Was it really that easy? Was he about to obtain it after paying a mere 2,000 high-grade spirit stones?
How awesome!
Just as Lin Fei thought that he was about to successfully complete the mission his master assigned him, a voice he had never heard before suddenly sounded from below.
“10,000 high-grade spirit stones.”
Lin Fei: “???”
He could not help but be stunned. Then, he looked down. The other party was none other than Ji Wuxia’s master, Lu Xiaoran.
This made him frown.
What was this guy doing?
What did he want to buy the ancient jade for?
Could it be that he knew the secret of the ancient jade?
However, that was not right.
The master of this ancient jade was a Martial Monarch Realm expert!
What was Lu Xiaoran?
He was just an elder nurtured by a small sect.
How could he know the true value of this ancient jade?
Only someone like his master, who was a powerful Martial Monarch Realm expert and was also related to many Martial Monarch Realm experts, would know about this.
