Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 867 - 867 827 Auction

867: Chapter 827: Auction 867: Chapter 827: Auction In the crowd, everyone looked at each other and swept their gazes around.

Soon, a path was cleared, revealing the spot where Lu Chuan stood.

In front of Lu Chuan, everyone present showed great respect.

After all, Lu Chuan was now the most powerful person in Forest City, and he had just supported one of their own to become the City Lord of Forest City.

To all of them, Lu Chuan was absolutely someone not to be trifled with.

Lu Chuan looked at the host and asked, “Do you need something from me?”

“Oh, no issue, just asking.

Since our Nangong family will be doing business here in Forest City from now on, it’s definite that we’d want to get acquainted with the person in control of Lu Manor first.”

“Besides, you are not only in control of Lu Manor but also the strongest person in Forest City!”

“So, to us, you are definitely the most important person.”

Lu Chuan walked a few steps forward along the aisle to the front of the crowd, looked at the host, and asked, “If you’re here to sell something, then just sell it, don’t snoop around.”

“I’m not snooping, I’m just here to sell.

Our Nangong family is here to develop the market, not to engage in any underhanded tactics.”

He laughed awkwardly, his expression very unnatural.

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “That’s best.”

“Begin the auction.”

The host took a deep breath, nodded, and said, “No problem, we’ll start right away.”

He looked at the people and continued to flash a brilliant smile, “Ladies and gentlemen, let our auction begin officially now!”

“The first treasure of today, I am going to bring it out right now!”

“Everyone please look, this is a very rare weapon, of excellent quality and powerful impact!”

He took a longbow out of a box beside him.

The bow was gold, and the bowstring was white jade, the whole looking extremely luxurious, unlike a common longbow.

“This is the Gold Body Jade Longbow, easy to handle, impressive in its impact, and light to draw, truly an extraordinary supreme rapid bow.”

“Ladies and gentlemen, if you are interested, please start bidding.

The starting price is 50 thousand taels of gold.”

As the host spoke, the hall buzzed with discussion.

Those with wealthy backgrounds were assessing the quality and value of the longbow.

Those not so wealthy were amazed by the starting bid of the first treasure being so astonishing — a whole 50 thousand taels of gold.

To some of the smaller clans, that indeed constituted an immense fortune.

Clearly, this first treasure had filtered out many clans of moderate means.

Only a few of the wealthiest families in Forest City were able to bid.

Representatives of the Su family raised their hands frequently, determined to secure the longbow.

With a City Lord from the Su family, their family’s wealth was set to increase significantly in the future.

Hence, the people from the Su family were spending money very lavishly.

Lu Chuan, arms crossed, stood his ground, unmoved.

He had no interest in bows and arrows so he didn’t participate in the bidding.

He could see that the longbow was indeed of good quality and worth acquiring.

If one were a Martial Artist skilled in using bows, then this longbow would certainly have an incredible allure.

Soon, the final auction result was announced, and it was the Su family that secured the treasure.

Lu Chuan turned to Dongfang Cheng, “Do you want to buy anything?”

Dongfang Cheng shook his head slightly, “If I needed something, I would just ask my father for it; the things here really aren’t tempting for me, but it’s different for the people of Forest City.”

“They are probably going to fight over it for a while.”

Lu Chuan sighed out of boredom, “Why don’t we go back?

This auction doesn’t seem to hold any meaning for us.”

Lu Chuan turned around and looked at Li Xunying among the crowd.

“I don’t mind.

If you want to go back, let’s go.”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “These people are not here for you; they are here to sell things.

Let’s go back.”

Li Xunying sighed helplessly and nodded reluctantly.

He was now very eager to find out if his enemies were still alive in this world.

This matter was very important to him and had become the most crucial affair of his remaining life.

Just as the two were about to turn around and leave,

the host shouted loudly, “The next item for auction is an extremely rare and precious elixir pill.”

“Named the Soul Pacifying Pill!”

“Its effects might be useless for most people.”

“Its function is that if a person has suffered a Divine Soul Attack, causing their Divine Soul to become unstable, frequently experiencing headaches and dizziness, even physical weakness and a sharp decline in strength,”

“they can take this pill to directly stabilize the Divine Soul and return to peak condition!”

“Such a pill is very precious in the Kunlun Domain.

If you have some spare gold, you can bid on one.

If you encounter the corresponding problems in the future, you will have an additional solution.”

“Ladies and gentlemen, the starting price is 10 thousand taels of gold.

If you need it, bid for it.

Even if you don’t have the symptoms I mentioned, it still has effects of stabilizing the Divine Soul and nourishing the nerves.”

“It is still a decent elixir pill.”

He said with a smile.

The crowd was buzzing with discussion, feeling that the item was not immediately useful, but if one were to suffer a Divine Soul Attack in the future, even a Divine Doctor could not cure it.

Therefore, having a Soul Pacifying Pill at home for unexpected needs was still very nice.

After the discussions, they began to raise their placards to start the bidding.

At that moment, Lu Chuan paused in his steps and stood still.

“Li Xunying, I remember, when you were at Heavenly Yin Mountain, you were in an evil spirit state, possessing a person’s body to have the ability to move.”

Li Xunying turned around; he was always wearing a mask, not showing his true face, because this was not his own face.

“That’s correct, as you said, this isn’t my own body.

But, as the possession time gradually increases, my appearance will gradually change.”

“Sooner or later, I will look almost like I did before.”

He explained earnestly.

“That person mentioned the situation of an unstable Divine Soul, have you encountered that before?”

“To be honest, this happens quite often, headaches and dizziness occur almost every few Shi Chen.”

“Although unstable, it doesn’t affect my actions, so there’s no need to bid on that pill.”

Lu Chuan shook his head slightly, “Still, let’s bid on it.

In case you’re affected during a battle, it could lead to serious trouble.”

“First, let’s stabilize your Divine Soul; at least it will make you feel a bit better.”

Li Xunying hurriedly bowed deeply, “Thank you so much for your help, Big Brother Lu.

I’m extremely grateful!”

Lu Chuan turned back towards the center of the venue, where the host was standing, and said, “I’ll take that elixir pill, bring it over.”

The host looked over, showing a helpless smile, “My friend, if you want this item, please bid for it yourself.”
