In box 20, Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "This is the right way to conduct an auction! How can there be such a one-off deal like just now! "
Li Yifu also smiled and said, "Martial Granduncle, it looks like the popularity of the Qi-gathering Pill is even better than we expected!"
Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "I think we can consider doing business with Qi-gathering Pills in the future, but we must ensure our safety."
Luo Qingfeng hurriedly said, "Master, the Star Picking Sect can provide the distribution channels! If Master needs anything, please let this Old Slave know at any time! "
Xia Ruofei glanced at Luo Qingfeng and said, "The Star Picking Sect may not be able to handle such a big business! If the Star Picking Sect can continuously sell these Qi-gathering Pills, you will definitely be targeted by the top sects! By then, even an idiot will know that you have mastered the refining method of the Qi-gathering Pill. By then, with the Star Picking Sect's strength, will you be able to protect the distribution channels? Maybe people will come knocking on your door and force you to give them the refining method! An ordinary man's wealth is his own ruin! "
Luo Qingfeng said with a look of shame, "Old Slave thought too simply of things …"
Xia Ruofei laughed and said, "Let's wait and see first! There's no rush for now! We don't lack cultivation resources at the moment, so there's no need to take risks. If we really want to do business with Qi-gathering Pills, we can think of a way to make the Star Picking Sect stronger first! Let's develop our strength first, and then we'll amaze the world with a brilliant feat! "
"Develop our strength?" Luo Qingfeng naturally did not understand this game term and could not help but ask in confusion.
In fact, even Li Yifu did not understand this term, but he understood Xia Ruofei's meaning from its literal meaning.
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "It means to secretly strengthen our strength. When we have the ability to protect the distribution channels and refining method of the Qi-gathering Pills, we'll start selling them with great fanfare!"
"Yes! Old Slave understands! "Luo Qingfeng was overjoyed and hurriedly said," Thank you, Master! "
Xia Ruofei's willingness to help the Star Picking Sect increase their strength was naturally a good thing for Luo Qingfeng.
Although the Soul Seal made Luo Qingfeng absolutely loyal to Xia Ruofei, it did not affect his mind. Other than his absolute obedience to Xia Ruofei, there was no change in other aspects. Luo Qingfeng had joined the Star Picking Sect from a young age and was still the sect's head, so naturally, he had deep feelings for the sect. Furthermore, he knew that Xia Ruofei's background was unfathomable. If Xia Ruofei was willing to help the Star Plucking Sect, even if it was just a little, it would be enough to change the Star Plucking Sect's appearance.
Xia Ruofei waved her hand and said, "Don't thank me yet! This is just one of the alternatives. Even if we're determined to increase the strength of the Star Picking Sect, we still have to choose the best people. We have to choose people who are absolutely reliable. Otherwise, if things go wrong, the news will leak out. "
"Yes! Old Slave understands! "Luo Qingfeng hurriedly said.
While the three of them were chatting, the price of the second bottle of Qi-gathering Pills was raised a few more times. It was a competition between box number 5 and box number 6.
These two parties seemed to be going all out. Neither side was willing to give in to the other, and every time they raised the price, they would raise it by the lowest increment of 40 Spirit Stones.
Even so, after a few more rounds of bidding, the price of the second bottle of Qi-gathering Pills had reached 2,520 Spirit Stones. The bidder was the cultivator in box number 6.
Xia Ruofei didn't know that the cultivator in box number 6 was the cultivator from Soaring Flower Valley whom they had met in the elevator. However, no matter who it was, as long as the price was raised, Xia Ruofei welcomed it with open arms.
In box number 6, Yu Xin 'er said uneasily, "Master, it's been a few rounds. Why don't we give up first? We don't want to ruin Master's plans … "
Liu Mansha said calmly, "It doesn't matter. This is just a small fight! This amount of Spirit Stones is nothing to us or the Black Dragon Sect. What I'm more curious about is what the Black Dragon Sect wants to do. Are they really interested in the Qi-gathering Pills? "
"We can't rule out that possibility!" Yang Liu said, "The quality of the Qi-gathering Pills this time is excellent. For cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage, it is indeed an excellent choice to assist their cultivation. I heard that Zhou Bingxuan took in a disciple in the secular world a few years ago. This disciple is very talented in cultivation. He even intends to let this disciple inherit his legacy. It's just that the current cultivation environment is really too bad, so this genius disciple's cultivation progress has been unsatisfactory. "
Liu Mansha couldn't help but glance at Yu Xin 'er. She curled her lips and said, "Genius disciple? Can his talent be as high as Xin 'er's? Taking in a disciple at a time like this is taking the risk of getting nothing! No matter how good his talent is, he can't be nurtured without a huge amount of resources! The foundation of the Black Dragon Sect is really not enough for him to torment! "
Yu Xin 'er listened from the side and had mixed feelings in her heart. She was more or less embarrassed. Over the years, she had also used up a lot of Soaring Flower Valley's resources, and even some of her senior sisters were quite dissatisfied. However, Liu Mansha was very determined to support her. This made her feel very touched, and at the same time, she couldn't help but feel a little scared. She knew that Liu Mansha had high hopes for her, and she was afraid that in the end, it would be like what Liu Mansha had just said.
Liu Mansha seemed to have seen through Yu Xin 'er's thoughts. She said lightly, "Xin' er, I'm not talking about you. Don't think too much. You are different from that so-called genius disciple of the Black Dragon Sect. As long as you persevere on the right path of cultivation, your final achievements will definitely not be lower than mine! If the same amount of resources were used on other disciples, they might at most reach the seventh or eighth level of Qi Refining. However, you have the hope of breaking through to the Golden Core Realm! "
Yu Xin 'er's heart warmed, and she quickly said, "Yes! This disciple understands! Thank you, Master! "
At this time, Yangliu cried out involuntarily, "This … Is the Black Dragon Sect crazy?"
Liu Mansha frowned slightly and looked at the big screen below. The screen showed that the highest price had been updated. The highest price was now offered by Zhou Bingxuan of the Black Dragon Sect, who was in the fifth box, at 2,800 Spirit Stones.
Zhou Bingxuan changed his previous method of only adding 40 Spirit Stones each time and directly added 280 Spirit Stones to Liu Mansha's bid.
Liu Mansha sneered and said, "Is this old guy trying to show his determination to get it? Is 2,800 Spirit Stones a lot? Who are you trying to scare? "
After that, Liu Mansha directly submitted a new price. This time, she did not simply add 40 Spirit Stones. Instead, she manually entered the price of 3,000 Spirit Stones into the bidding device and pressed the submit button without hesitation.
Yu Xin 'er did not dare to speak at this time. She faintly felt that the price was a bit too high.
3,000 Spirit Stones to buy 20 Qi-gathering Pills? It would be better to directly use the Spirit Stones to cultivate! The total amount of Spiritual Qi was definitely more than the Qi-gathering Pills.
However, it naturally could not be calculated in this way. 20 Qi-gathering Pills might be used up in less than a month, and 3,000 Spirit Stones, with the absorption efficiency of Qi-gathering Pills, would take at least several months to use up. In addition, the Spiritual Qi in the Qi-gathering Pills was purer, and the conversion efficiency was higher. The cultivation effect of the two pills might be similar, but it saved several times the time.
In Box 20, Xia Ruofei appeared to be quite calm, but Luo Qingfeng and Li Yifu, who were beside him, were so excited that their eyes were wide open. Their hands were tightly clenched into fists, and they stared at the big screen without blinking.
At this time, a rough voice came from Box 5, "Valley Master Liu, there are still four bottles of Qi-gathering Pills. Why do you and I have to fight to the death and let the person who commissioned the auction benefit for no reason? Why don't you give this old man some face and let Valley Master Liu compete for the remaining three bottles? "
Liu Mansha snorted lightly. Since Zhou Bingxuan had already exposed her, she did not intend to hide her identity. She directly said, "This is also what I wanted to say to Sect Master Zhou! Since there are still four bottles of Qi-gathering Pills, why don't Sect Master Zhou compete for the remaining three bottles? "
"You …" Zhou Bingxuan was momentarily speechless. "This old man's disciple just happened to be at a bottleneck in his cultivation and needs Qi-gathering Pills to help him cultivate. Valley Master Liu is already an expert in the middle stage of the Golden Core realm. What use do you have for Qi-gathering Pills?"
"Are you the only one allowed to have disciples?" Liu Mansha coldly said, "This Valley Master has taken in quite a few genius disciples! They also need Qi-gathering Pills. "
"Valley Master Liu, must you do this?" Zhou Bingxuan gloomily asked.
Liu Mansha sneered and said, "I have already bid! If Sect Master Zhou wants to compete, then just increase the price! Maybe this is the highest price I have in mind. As long as you increase it by 40 Spirit Stones, I will give up! "
Zhou Bingxuan snorted coldly and did not speak again. It was obvious that he was quite angry.
In the box, Yang Liu giggled and said, "Senior Sister! This is too carefree! This Zhou Bingxuan is arrogant and thinks that everyone has to give him face! When has our Soaring Flower Valley been afraid of others? "
Liu Mansha calmly said, "Junior Sister Yang, we are prepared to give up on this round of bidding."
Yang Liu was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion, "Put …"
Before she could finish speaking, Zhou Bingxuan, who was quite angry in the box next door, had already increased the price again. However, he did not seem to have lost his mind and directly increased the price by 40 Spirit Stones on top of the base price of 3000, bringing the price to 3040 Spirit Stones.
On the other side, Liu Mansha did not hesitate to increase the price again, and this time, the price was raised to 3100 Spirit Stones.
When Yang Liu saw this, she was even more confused. Liu Mansha had clearly said that she was prepared to give up! Why was she still increasing the price, and by so much at once!
Zhou Bingxuan was also quite irritated. He was so angry that he gritted his teeth and did not listen to the advice of the elders beside him, directly increasing the price to 3200 Spirit Stones.
When this price was displayed on the big screen, Liu Mansha clearly let out a sigh of relief.
She used a relaxed tone and said jokingly, "It seems that the rich and overbearing Sect Master Zhou is determined to get this bottle of Qi-gathering Pills! As the saying goes, a gentleman does not take what others like. Although we are little girls, there is no harm in imitating a gentleman! We will give up this bottle of Qi-gathering Pills! "
Then, Liu Mansha "considerately" said to Hao Qingsong, who was on the auction stage, "Elder Hao! Our Soaring Flower Valley gives up. If there are no other Fellow Daoists bidding, you can announce the end of this round's auction! "
Even if Zhou Bingxuan had lost his rationality, he had already realized that he had been tricked by Liu Mansha. From the moment their Black Dragon Sect started to raise the price, Liu Mansha had no intention of competing for this bottle of Qi-gathering Pills. However, she had always acted as if she was determined to get this bottle, continuously raising the price. Her goal was naturally to make the Black Dragon Sect spend more Spirit Stones.
Under the provocation of Liu Mansha's words, Zhou Bingxuan really fell for it. 3200 Spirit Stones to buy 20 Qi-gathering Pills, which was equivalent to 160 Spirit Stones for each Qi-gathering Pill. This price was obviously a little too high.
It should be known that the starting price was only 1600 Spirit Stones, and this was already double the starting price.
At this moment, Hao Qingsong was a little embarrassed, but he still dutifully asked a few more times. When he saw that there was indeed no one competing for this bottle of Qi-gathering Pills, he loudly announced, "Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Zhou in private room number 5 for winning this bottle of Qi-gathering Pills!"
Although he said congratulations, Zhou Bingxuan felt that it was a little harsh to hear.
Of course, to Hao Qingsong, this was just a routine matter. He immediately signaled for the staff to come on stage and take the bottle of Qi-gathering Pills to Zhou Bingxuan in private room number 5.
Liu Mansha also indifferently said, "Congratulations to Sect Leader Zhou for getting what you wanted!"
Zhou Bingxuan lightly snorted and said, "Isn't it just 3000 Spirit Stones? Spending a few hundred Spirit Stones to increase my beloved disciple's chances of breaking through, these Spirit Stones were too worth it! In this old man's opinion, Spirit Stones are only worldly possessions. Talent is the most important thing. "
Zhou Bingxuan naturally wasn't willing to suffer a hidden loss, so his words were more or less instigated. Although he didn't have the extravagant hope that with just a few words, he could make Liu Mansha and her disciple turn against each other. However, if he could make Liu Mansha's disciple have a trace of a grudge in her heart, then spending a few hundred Spirit Stones would be worth it.
Liu Mansha faintly smiled and said, "Sect Leader Zhou's words are reasonable. Fortunately, there are still three bottles of Qi-gathering Pills for sale. I just don't know how many Spirit Stones I can spend to buy you. I also don't know if there's any difference between the Qi-gathering Pills that Sect Leader Zhou spent 3200 Spirit Stones to buy …"
"You …" Zhou Bingxuan was so angry that he was speechless. He clenched his teeth and secretly made up his mind. In a while, if Liu Mansha continued to bid for the Qi-gathering Pills, then he might as well raise the price. After all, he couldn't let Liu Mansha have an easy time.
In private room number 20, when Li Yifu and Luo Qingfeng saw the final price, they couldn't help but excitedly stand up.
Xia Ruofei chuckled and said, "Calm down! There's a certain element of luck in this price. That beautiful Valley Master and Sect Leader Zhou in private room number 5 fought until their eyes turned red. This is considered an irrational bidding. The next few bottles might not be able to sell for such a high price. "
"That's still worth it!" Li Yifu said happily, "At least we've made up for the loss of the first bottle."
Because the highly respected Sun Tianfeng had come out to bid for the first bottle, the cultivators of the major sects had all given face to the Medicine King Valley and didn't participate in the competition. They had directly won the first bottle at the price of 2000 Spirit Stones.
In the eyes of Xia Ruofei and the other two, this price was clearly a bit low. It had just reached the price that they had in mind.
Now that the second bottle had been auctioned for 3200 Spirit Stones, it really made up for the loss of the first bottle.
Xia Ruofei chuckled and said, "Yifu's words do make some sense."
At this time, the third bottle of Qi-gathering Pills had already been auctioned on the main auction stage.
