Chapter 1239: Chapter 1239: I, Add Ten Million

The waiter brought over the flower pot to Long Fei. As he was leaving, Chu Feng sneakily pulled on the waiter’s hand.

The girl was startled and turned around to glare at him playfully.

But he asked indifferently, "Excuse me, have we met before?"

"No?"

The young girl shook her head in confusion.

Pretending to be surprised, Chu Feng exclaimed, "Then why are you all I think about?"

"Stop it!"

The girl blushed, unaccustomed to such smooth talk.

After she quickly walked away, Lin Shanshan gave Chu Feng a disapproving look, "Why do you flirt with every woman you see?"

Chu Feng shrugged and said, "You don’t understand, this is me infiltrating the enemy ranks."

After the girl reached the stage, she whispered with a group of girls, her face flushing as she pouted towards Chu Feng.

Chu Feng waved his hand as a gesture.

The girl looked at her hand and was surprised to find a Storage Ring had been slipped onto her finger without her notice.

Inside the Storage Ring was a shiny diamond necklace and a Divine Sense message from Chu Feng, "How about dinner later?"

The beauty couldn’t help but smile, her head bowed, worried others might notice.

Every treasure Long Fei and Chu Feng obtained, he picked things specifically to be used to charm girls.

Although diamonds were not valuable in this world, girls liked them and they were used for making jewelry.

Especially this necklace, which was exquisitely crafted and uniquely designed, anyone who saw it would fall in love at first sight.

There was a brief intermission, and everyone took a sip of tea.

The fourth auction item was quickly brought up, immediately drawing everyone’s attention.

This auction item seemed to be a large bucket.

The female usher held it, looking somewhat strained.

Yan Ruyu unveiled the red cloth, and on the tray was not just anything, but an Alchemy Cauldron.

Yan Ruyu introduced, "Ladies and gentlemen, the next item we’re auctioning is this Alchemy Cauldron brought from the Ghost Emperor City. The material is unique and has been tested by Divine Dragon Auction House to be near True Immortal Level. Most importantly, it contains half-unrefined pills inside. These medicines have been tested, their properties preserved and not volatile. No one knows what these pills could turn into once fully refined—it could even be Immortal Pills. Therefore, the starting price for this item is set at one hundred million Spirit Stones, with each raise being at least five million Spirit Stones, and the bidding starts now."

"One hundred million?"

"Are they insane?"

"Divine Dragon Auction House is robbing us!"

"Just any cauldron and they come out bluffing!"

"I certainly don’t believe this is something ancient."

"Can the medicinal properties in the valley be preserved until now?"

A group of youngsters were so scared their tongues trembled, who except the major Sects with their own mines could afford a hundred million Spirit Stones at once?

Someone questioned, "How can you be sure this is from the Ghost Emperor City?"

"Yeah, without proof, why should we believe you?"

"Who brought this item out? Why isn’t he using it himself?"

"Indeed, if it’s such a great item, why wouldn’t he keep it for his own use?"

"..."

Yan Ruyu remained composed, and after they finished talking, she explained one by one, "First, this Alchemy Cauldron has been verified by our Divine Dragon Auction House, and we guarantee it with our reputation. Second, please take a close look. There is a special mark from the Flame Emperor Palace on this cauldron. Anyone who has seen objects from the Flame Emperor Palace should be familiar with this mark."

She gestured towards the flame mark on the cauldron with her jade hand.

"Third, any divine medicine can be preserved for an era without issues. This Divine Medicine has only been half-refined; the owner of this cauldron could not refine it completely, so he decided to auction it off, to prevent this treasure from being lost in his hands."

Yan Ruyu struck the copper hammer and announced, "The auction begins."

This time, the people below did not dare to speak up, and the customers in the upper private rooms finally made a sound.

One hundred fifty million,

One hundred ten million,

One hundred twenty million,

One hundred thirty million,

...

The ordinary customers below, who thought this item would go unsold, were surprised by the many bids.

Everyone was astounded, all secretly thinking that poverty limited their imagination.

What was an astronomical price to them was nothing to the elite customers.

Long Fei leaned to the side and listened in on the bidding happening in the private room where Wang Xiaoya and her daughter were.

They were heirs of Alchemy Cauldron Sect, so it was normal for them to be interested in this Pill.

Moreover, this Medicine Cauldron was near True Immortal Level, also a rare treasure.

However, the confidence of the mother and daughter was lacking; Long Fei, their future son-in-law’s Mystic Yin Sect, had just been besieged by the Six Major Sects.

Their number of Spirit Stones was likely far behind other forces.

Chu Feng stealthily communicated with the etiquette girl from earlier, introducing the power of the guests overhead to Long Fei and the others.

The current bidders included Mount Wudang, Shenxu, Kunlun, Prime Minister Yi’s Family, and Extraterrestrial Domain Celestial King Star and other forces.

Mount Wudang pursued fervently, evidently determined to win.

They are known for Alchemy; in this world, almost all top Alchemists come from Mount Wudang.

In the Cultivation World, most pursue martial arts, showing little interest in labor-intensive tasks like Alchemy and equipment forging.

When the price reached two hundred million Spirit Stones, only Mount Wudang and Mystic Yin Sect remained.

This was already an astronomical sum, two hundred million Superior-grade Spirit Stones, nearly a decade’s expenses for a major Sect.

The two competitors kept increasing their bids, pushing the price up by another hundred million.

When it broke through three hundred million, Wang Xiaoya’s mother, Xie Sanniang, blatantly cursed, "Wudang scoundrels, you really are relentless!"

Someone from Wudang laughed and said, "Xie Sanniang, we’re talking capital here. If you don’t have the capital, don’t force it."

Fuming and frustrated, Xie Sanniang held back from bidding further after Wang Xiaoya’s persuasion.

The Wudang Sect burst into laughter, "This item should belong to our Wudang Sect. Who in the world dares to compete? Who has the capability?"

People rubbed their heads, those without capability admitted they didn’t have it, those with capability no longer wanted to pursue it.

Even if they forcibly bought this Cauldron, without a good Alchemist to study it, it would only be superfluous. In fact, they might even need to cooperate with Mount Wudang, better to just let them have it.

Although this Cauldron was near True Immortal level, it was not actually at True Immortal level, not worth buying for three hundred million.

"Does anyone want to add a bid?"

Yan Ruyu struck the copper hammer above, intentionally glancing at Long Fei.

She seemed to be able to read Long Fei’s mind, their eyes met with a teasing expression.

Mount Wudang anxiously shouted, "Hurry up and close the deal! Who has the financial power to compete with Mount Wudang?"

At this moment, Long Fei raised his bidder card and said indifferently, "I, add ten million!"

The audience was in an uproar, recognizing the voice as Long Fei, the big spender.

Xie Sanniang raised her eyebrows, her face showing surprise.

Wang Xiaoya secretly smiled, peering through the gauze overhead, her gaze fixing on Long Fei below.

She knew, Long Fei was doing this to stand up for them.
