Chapter 317: Chapter 317: Fury

In VIP Box No. 8, Huang Qingyu’s face wore an expression of bitter helplessness. He could almost imagine Fan Lichun’s current expression; she was probably wishing she could devour his flesh, sleep on his hide, drink his blood, pluck his tendons, grind his bones to dust.

On the other hand, Su Luo’s face was brimming with a smile.

The reason Huang Qingyu had made his move was naturally at his instigation.

The final twenty billion was also Su Luo’s limit; it was worth a try. If he could scare off the Dragon Soul Chamber of Commerce, then he would get his hands on the half of the Spirit Storage Map for twenty billion. After all, he was capable of refining the Ageless Pill; money wasn’t an issue for him.

If it didn’t scare them away and Dragon Soul Chamber of Commerce continued to raise the price...

Then he would let Dragon Soul Chamber of Commerce take it.

After all, according to Huang Qingyu... Fan Lichun’s complexion wasn’t looking too good. The earlier price was probably already their limit. A sudden jump to twenty billion, even if Dragon Soul Chamber of Commerce were to acquire the half of the Spirit Storage Map, it would hardly be a cause for celebration.

Moreover, in the end, they would still be making the wedding dress for him.

Su Luo believed that Aunt Shen would find a way to make a copy of the Spirit Storage Map for him.

Therefore, this outcome was actually much better for Su Luo than if he had successfully bid for the half of the Spirit Storage Map himself.

The only one who probably felt uncomfortable in the whole auction venue was likely the Dragon Soul Chamber of Commerce.

"Next up, the treasure that we will be auctioning is also the last item in this auction."

"This treasure, I believe, will have a greater attraction for the ladies, but before that, let me tease you a bit. Can everyone guess what the final item of the auction will be?"

Master Gu was in a very good mood at this time, and even conducting the auction had become a bit more unrestrained.

Something with more attraction for women?

Inside the hall, many people were puzzled, making various guesses.

"Master Gu, stop teasing us and just bring out the Ageless Pill already. I’ve been waiting far too long," a woman’s voice came from a VIP box.

Ageless Pill?

At that moment.

Inside the hall.

The crowd was stirred.

Mainly because the name "Ageless Pill" was very straightforward and easy to understand. Coupled with Master Gu’s statement about its appeal to women, everyone instantly understood what it was.

"Since that’s the case, I won’t keep you guessing any longer."

"Yes, the last item we are going to auction is an Ageless Pill. Although it can’t completely keep one forever young and preserve one’s beauty, it... almost can."

Master Gu smiled, "To put it simply, if a twenty-year-old woman takes this Ageless Pill, even if she lives to be a hundred years old, she would only age about ten years or so. Her appearance would remain roughly that of a thirty-year-old, and definitely will not exceed thirty-five."

"Furthermore, the effectiveness of the Ageless Pill has been verified by the Elder of Medicine God Temple and our auction house. It truly works wonders."

As soon as this was announced.

Without exception, all the women in the room were abuzz with excitement.

"Starting bid for one Ageless Pill: ten billion!"

"Each increment must be no less than fifty million!"

"And so the auction begins!"

...

In the box, seeing that Master Gu had started auctioning the Ageless Pill, Su Luo lost interest in watching further. After all, the Ageless Pill was something he had refined himself; it wasn’t rare to him, and he wasn’t planning to bid for it.

"Let’s go."

The auction wasn’t over yet, but Su Luo stood up, taking Huang Qingyu with him as they left the box.

He called Li Ya to get the Tianshan Snow Lotus for him.

He intended to take advantage of the Tianshan Snow Lotus while it still had activity, to replant and cultivate it, striving to nurture the Tianshan Snow Lotus into another Millennium Divine Medicine.

"Mr. Su, you’re not waiting for the Outcome of the Ageless Pill auction?" Huang Qingyu asked.

"No need to wait. Let’s go our separate ways from here. Do as you wish, but don’t mention anything about me," Su Luo said.

"All right," Huang Qingyu quickly nodded, actually eager to leave and avoid being found by Fan Lichun, which would be troublesome.

However,

Huang Qingyu ultimately could not escape.

Fan Lichun intercepted him.

"Huang Qingyu, how dare you trick me?" Fan Lichun’s expression was full of wrath, as if she wanted to kill Huang Qingyu on the spot.

Huang Qingyu caused her to spend a total of two hundred and one billion to get that half of the Spirit Storage Map. Coupled with her previous spending for the auction of the Remnant Volume of"Overlord Blade", she had severely overextended herself. Consequently, in the end, she could only watch helplessly as the Ageless Pill was bid away by others.

All these factors combined, it was easy to imagine how furious she was.

If Dongsheng Auction House had not informed her that there would be more Ageless Pills auctioned in the future and that she would have a chance to acquire one, she probably would have been unable to restrain her anger and would have already attacked Huang Qingyu.

Although Huang Qingyu was fearful of her Great Grandmaster strength, he was, after all, an Elder of the Medicine God Temple. He feared Su Luo, but he was not afraid of Fan Lichun; he was merely apprehensive.

Therefore, Huang Qingyu was neither servile nor overbearing as he said, "Fair competition, just a small tactic. I told you not to compete with me, but you insisted on adding one billion. I didn’t have that much money, so I had to let you have it. How can you blame me?"

Fan Lichun stared at Huang Qingyu with cold eyes.

She, of course, understood this, which was exactly why she was extremely angry.

"Huang Qingyu, what do you think... if I kill you here to vent my frustration, would the Medicine God Temple know it was me who did it?" Fan Lichun snorted coldly.

Huang Qingyu’s complexion changed slightly.

His visit to Kun City was, in fact, unknown to the Medicine God Temple, because as an Elder, he did not have to report his travels.

If he were to die silently at the hands of Fan Lichun, even if the Medicine God Temple investigated afterward, they would suspect Fan Lichun but would not have any substantial evidence.

Sweat involuntarily broke out on Huang Qingyu’s forehead.

"Don’t worry, I’ve recorded everything. If you dare kill him, the Medicine God Temple will definitely know who did it," just at that moment, a voice suddenly sounded by their ears.

"Who?" Fan Lichun’s spiritual power swept out instantly.

But she found nothing.

Fan Lichun’s face grew even uglier. Someone had lurked under her very nose, recording, dropping a threatening line, and then vanished without a trace in an instant.

This was tantamount to slapping her, a Great Grandmaster, in the face.

As for Huang Qingyu, he breathed a sigh of relief.

He, of course, knew it was Su Luo.

Thankfully, Su Luo hadn’t abandoned him after he worked for him.

"Elder Fan, you can mess with a lot of things, but some words should not be carelessly spoken. Don’t affect the relationship between the Medicine God Temple and the Dragon Soul Chamber of Commerce," Huang Qingyu said, then quickly turned and left.

"Dammit," Fan Lichun was furious. She immediately gave an order, "Find out who that person was just now, whether they were with Huang Qingyu before."

"Yes," Chen Chen and others took their orders.

Worry flashed through Shen Qingzhi’s eyes. She knew, of course, that it was Su Luo. Previously, Su Luo had also been with Huang Qingyu.

But if Fan Lichun found out that it was Su Luo, she feared Fan Lichun would not hesitate to kill Su Luo. After all, Su Luo was currently on the Dragon Soul Chamber of Commerce’s kill list.

Killing Su Luo would come with a hefty reward.
