Chapter 291: Chapter 291- Ancient Flood Dragon Spear

"Is anyone willing to bid higher? Four Amethyst Profound Stones going one, going twice... going thrice and sold!! Congratulations to this person, you have good eyesight, you have truly bought a treasure"

Up on the stage, the elder declared the result. Since there was no one who wanted to purchase the Star Whisker Grass at that price, it was finally bought by Tang Xun’er.

A subordinate of the star dragon chamber carried the item and headed for her. Once he received the payment, he swiftly gave the item and returned back to the stage.

After the starting item the Star Whisker Grass, more and more items came up for the auction. However, none of them were as impressive or managed to breach the benchmark of amethyst profound stones.

As such, the lower and middle rows were able to get some haul. Of course, Yang Chen and Tang Xun’er weren’t interested in such items and were busy having a discussion of their own.

"Here, take it. Consider it as a form of repayment for what you did back then at the inn"

The latter smilingly handed him the space ring that contained the Star Whisker Grass. Her words indicated that she was aware of the act he did to protect her from the assassin back at the inn.

"You better take it before I feed it to Yun. You see he likes rare mystical herbs like this one very much" Seeing that he was still hesitant, Tang Xun’er teased.

Finally having no choice, Yang Chen relented "I will pay you back for the Star Whisker Grass later".

Once he found a proper seller for the demonic beast carcasses, he could exchange them for some decent money.

"Hehe," Tang Xun’er simply smiled, refusing to comment.

"By the way, now that you got the star whisker grass, what are you going to use it for?"...

Yang Chen blinked his eyes "Didn’t I tell you I am an alchemist? Of course, I am going to use it to refine pills"...

"There you go again. Hey, the mystical herb is for four amethyst profound stones. With that kind of money you could have gotten some good items".

It looks like the girl still doesn’t believe that he was an alchemist. Unless, he showed her his skills, he won’t be able to change her mind.

"Don’t worry, that four amethyst profound stones wasn’t wasted at all. In fact, we basically got it at the price of dirt"...

"What do you mean?"...

Yang Chen explained, "Buying a Star whisker grass is like buying it for dirt cheap. The price of an item as rare as this is much more than just four amethyst profound stones. However, because it appeared in a place where people didn’t understand its true value, it was unable to fetch its actual price".

The Star Whisker Grass was an item that was an essential ingredient in refining many rare and high grade tier 5 pills. It was like a key ingredient with an ever short supply and excess demand.

Because of the stringent growth requirements of the mystical herb, it is only able to grow in certain places. As such, the demand for Star Whisker Grass is always high, especially for master and grandmaster level alchemists who are always on the lookout for Star Whisker Grass.

Had this item appeared somewhere else where there were lots of alchemists, forget four amethyst profound stones, its price would reached as high as thirty amethyst profound stones.

Compared to that, what was spending just four Amethyst profound stones? Yang Chen was quite happy with the haul.

"Is that so?"

Tang Xun’er nodded her head. She was not an alchemist unlike him and didn’t possess the knowledge from the Great Sage Emperor’s diary. As such she couldn’t understand the real value of the item.

"Well, as long as you don’t regret it".

Saying that, she shifted her attention from him to the stage. While they were having their own discussion, many items came up to the stage and were quickly hoarded by the people who were desperate to increase their strength for the upcoming opening of the ancient sect.

Just like with the Star Whisker grass, the subordinates of the star dragon chamber walked up to the bidder before exchanging profound stones for the item.

"Now everyone, if I can please have your attention. The next item that is coming up for the auction is rather unique and was tasked to our star Dragon Chamber to auction. The person who put this up for auction is someone you might all know and is someone from the Xuan Sect"

The elder from the Star Dragon Chamber paused here to let his words sink in before continuing.

"That’s right, the thing that makes this item so unique is none other than the fact that it came from the ancient sect itself. A treasure from the ancient times, I do not even need to explain how rare the item is".

Hurried gasps could be heard coming from their audience as they heard Yao Ming’s words. The atmosphere inside the hall also shifted as the excitement reached a boiling point.

Treasures from the ancient sect, this was the reason they attended the desert auction in the first place. They wanted to see for themselves what kind of unique items came up and were waiting for them inside the ancient sect.

While everyone stared intently at Yao Ming, a subordinate walked up from the backstage while carrying a long thin item wrapped in clothes.

"I’m sure every one of you are eagerly waiting for this. As such, without any further delay let’s reveal this item"

The elder grabbed the cloth and swiftly slid it off causing the item to appear in front of everyone.

A long elongated body with a blood red colour. Scale like patterns decorated the shaft that moved up and down giving an almost ethereal feeling as if the thing was alive.

Along its tip, a sharp formidable glint flowed looking just like a menacing blade.
