The red-haired lady said, "Alright, come up and exchange."
Yang Qingxuan's expression changed slightly. He said, "I offer six taels of aged gold for the Celestial Pill."
The red-haired lady's face lit up. She pointed at Yang Qingxuan and said, "Alright, it's yours. Come up and exchange."
The metal-attributed elder was furious. He shouted, "Stinking brat! I've already made the first move. First come, first served! "
Before Yang Qingxuan could retort, the red-haired lady sneered, "Who's first come, first served? This is an auction, not a market. Either you offer more aged gold or sit down obediently! "
The metal-attributed elder was so angry that the golden glow on his face darkened. He looked at Yang Qingxuan sitting in the VIP area and knew that he wasn't someone to be trifled with. He gritted his teeth and said, "Six taels of silver!"
Yang Qingxuan said, "Six taels of silver and five taels of silver."
The metal-elemental elder roared, "Seven taels!"
Yang Qingxuan said, "Seven taels of silver and one tael of silver."
"Pfft!" The metal-attributed elder was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood. He slumped weakly on his seat with a sorrowful expression.
Yang Qingxuan sighed inwardly. He could tell that the elder needed the Celestial Pill. However, what he lacked the most now was strength. He couldn't let go of any opportunity to increase his strength.
The red-haired lady was overjoyed. "Alright, it's you!"
Yang Qingxuan stood up and took a step forward. He stood on the stage and took out seven taels of aged gold to exchange for the Celestial Pill. He then turned around and returned to his seat.
Yan Shigu smiled. "Congratulations Brother Luffy on the pill."
Yang Qingxuan shook his head. "I've made a fool of myself."
Yan Shigu said leisurely, "Actually, I think that if Brother Luffy has a lot of aged gold, you can bid for the imperial seal's component. One must know that ancient treasures were created by super experts during the primordial era. Every single one of them is extremely powerful. They aren't inferior to innate spiritual treasures. Although the Imperial Seal is just a component, it can still be used after refining it. However, its power is limited, and it is of little value to Brother Luffy. But if I have the opportunity to collect the other three parts in the future, that would be amazing. "
Yang Qingxuan said doubtfully, "Oh? Does Brother Gu know anything about ancient treasures? "
Yan Shigu's expression was normal as he smiled and said, "I was a little interested and studied it a little."
Yang Qingxuan muttered to himself, "Then what do you think is the probability of me gathering this treasure?"
Yan Shigu pondered for a moment and shook his head. "It's hard to say. The probability is not high, but it's not impossible. Also, as I said earlier, this component can be used on its own. If you really can't gather all of them, there's an interesting method, which is to add all kinds of materials and continuously increase its grade and power. The refinement method of ancient treasures was very different from the current Origin Tools. Ancient treasures are much more stable and can be refined as you wish. "
Yang Qingxuan thought for a moment and found it interesting. After all, ancient treasures were extremely rare and couldn't be circulated on the market. If this Imperial Seal wasn't only a quarter complete, it probably wouldn't be circulated. Even if he bought it and didn't use it, he could still study it. Who knows, he might be able to figure out something.
Just as he was about to call out a price, a faint female voice suddenly sounded from the void. It was very pleasing to the ear and entered everyone's ears.
"I'll trade for the Imperial Seal component."
As the voice rang out, the auction hall fell into a short silence. Everyone looked at the source of the voice in astonishment.
Even Zi Ran's expression changed, revealing a trace of shock. However, it quickly returned to normal.
Yang Qingxuan looked at the source of the voice. Golden light flashed in his eyes and he saw that above the auction hall, there were countless rules of boundaries. Looking through them, he could vaguely see a dark secret room. Inside, there were several graceful figures. One of them was a woman standing by the window. She should be the one who had spoken.
Yang Qingxuan had an inexplicable feeling in his heart. This woman's figure seemed very familiar. Suddenly, he remembered the shadow he saw through the void in the No-Desire Abode.
Could it be the same person?
Yan Shigu whispered, "This is troublesome. It's someone from the Divine King's residence. And from the voice, her cultivation isn't low. I just saw Zi Ran's expression change. Thinking about the situation of the Divine King's residence, it's very likely that it's a princess. "
Yang Qingxuan asked in astonishment, "Then what should we do?"
Yan Shigu pondered for a moment and shook his head slightly. "It's not easy."
What he meant was that he had to do as he saw fit.
Yang Qingxuan thought for a moment. Anyway, I have nothing to lose. This is a stage set up by the Divine King's residence. You can't possibly destroy it and deal with me.
Moreover, as long as I leave this place, no one will be able to find me with my Seventy-two Transformations.
He calmly said, "I'll pay five taels for one coin."
"Whoosh." Countless gazes gathered and looked at Yang Qingxuan in astonishment.
After all, everyone knew that those who could occupy the space above the auction hall were all top-notch figures. Their status was far above that of the VIPs.
Many people even guessed that the voice just now was most likely the adopted daughter of a Divine King. They all thought to themselves, "Does this kid want to die?"
In the secret room above the auction hall, Zi Xia stood with her hands behind her back. A purple light appeared in her eyes as she stared at Yang Qingxuan. It was as if she wanted to see through him completely.
The four maidservants behind her all looked angry. Her personal maidservant, Xiao Huan, even said sternly, "Miss, this big guy is really something. He knows we're from the Divine King's residence, yet he dares to bid!"
Zi Xia did not seem to hear her. Instead, she asked, "Xiao Huan, is there any news about the cat demon martial practitioner I asked you to investigate last time?"
Xiao Huan was stunned. She shook her head and said, "Miss, that cat demon seems to have disappeared. I've used all of my intelligence network, but there's no trace of it. It's strange. I've also sent people to ask around in several major transportation areas, but they haven't seen a cat demon like that. "
"Oh? That's interesting. "
Zi Xia's eyes were filled with purple light. It was like a veil of smoke. Outsiders could not see her thoughts at all. They could only hear her muttering, "This feeling of being seen through is the same as last time."
Xiao Huan was stunned. "Miss, what did you say? Are you going to deal with that big guy? "
Zi Xia shook her head. "Send a message to Zi Ran. After ten more items, increase the auction by fifty phoenix marrow fruits."
Xiao Huan asked in confusion, "Why? Aren't the phoenix marrow fruits selling very well? Then what about this big guy? "
Zi Xia frowned. "You have so many questions. Hurry up and do it!"
Xiao Huan jumped in fright and hurriedly said, "Yes!" Then she bowed and left.
…
After Yang Qingxuan bid five taels for one qian, the entire auction hall fell silent. There were no more bids in the secret room.
Everyone in the auction hall did not know what the girl from the Divine King's residence was thinking. Some wanted to bid, but after thinking it over, they held back.
Since the princess of the Divine King's residence had taken a fancy to this item, even if they won it, they would not feel at ease!
Four chapters, I'll return the next chapter later. I'll make up for what I missed yesterday. I'll continue to ask for monthly votes and recommendation votes.
