Arrogant before deferential
"Elder Wu!"
Seeing this old man, everyone's expression changed, becoming respectful. Even Meng Shaoyin was no exception. Mu Lan Xuanxuan didn't show much reaction, merely glancing at the old man.
"It's Elder Wu Feng, one of the Black Warrior Auction House's four Great Elders! The amount of law energy he has condensed is at least one thousand and nine hundred, a late-stage Battle Dan Realm existence! "
Shu Donglai hastily transmitted his voice to Ning Qi. At the same time, a trace of worry flickered in his eyes. If he offended this kind of existence, his days in Dongxuan City wouldn't be easy.
Wu Feng looked at Ning Qi, waiting for his reply.
Ning Qi smiled, "Your Black Warrior Auction House's appraiser has yet to see the item, yet his tone is filled with disdain, extremely arrogant. Whether I'm here to sell or buy, I'm still a guest. Is this how the Black Warrior Auction House treats its guests?"
"You're slandering me!"
That middle-aged man appeared out of nowhere, reprimanding Ning Qi. Then, he approached Wu Feng with a respectful expression, speaking in a low voice, "Elder Wu Feng, this kid didn't even take out the item, yet he wants me to specially arrange an auction for him today. Isn't this just messing around?"
"What a big tone ah, you're just a country bumpkin from Dongxuan, yet you dare to behave atrociously in the Black Warrior Auction House? Specially arrange an auction for you? What a joke! "
Meng Shaoyin snickered.
Mu Lan Xuanxuan looked deeply at Ning Qi. She had a feeling that Ning Qi wasn't the kind of cultivator who would brag. Since he made such a request, he must have his own reasons.
"Little brother, do you really have such a request?"
Wu Feng frowned, looking at Ning Qi.
"En."
Ning Qi nodded his head.
"This request is a little too much …"
Wu Feng stated nonchalantly.
"Farewell."
Ning Qi smiled faintly and headed out.
Shu Donglai couldn't resist mocking, "Something that even an Eternal Life Realm cultivator wants, so what if we specially arrange an auction for it? Humph! "
"Wait!"
Wu Feng's face slightly froze. His figure moved and blocked in front of Ning Qi. He asked in surprise, "Even Eternal Life Realm cultivators want to snatch it?"
Ning Qi ignored Wu Feng and glanced at Donglai. Donglai's face turned slightly red as he whispered, "Young Master, I'm really angry."
"It won't happen again."
Ning Qi said lightly.
"Yes!"
Shu Donglai let out a sigh of relief.
"Even an Eternal Life Stage wants to snatch it? There's no one else who can brag to this extent. What a joke. "
Meng Shaoyin was stunned at first, but then he laughed. He did not believe that Ning Qi would take out something that even an Eternal Life Realm cultivator would want to snatch. What did an Eternal Life Realm cultivator not have in the Inner Domain? There were only a few treasures that could make them fight for it!
It wasn't just him, the others didn't believe it either, especially the middle-aged man. He sneered and said, "Take out the thing and let everyone see it. I want to know what kind of thing is worth a cultivator in the Eternal Life Realm."
"Bluewood, shut up!"
Wu Feng's cold gaze swept over the middle-aged man.
Bluewood was taken aback, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes. However, his cultivation was too far below Wu Feng's. The other side could suppress him with a single move, thus he could only shut his mouth. However, the way he looked at Ning Qi was full of ridicule.
"This little brother, may I know if we can discuss this in detail inside?"
Wu Feng asked in a low voice.
"My request, if your Black Warrior Auction House can agree to it, then let's talk. If not, then there's no point in talking."
Seeing that Wu Feng's attitude was acceptable, Ning Qi said nonchalantly.
"If that thing is really so valuable, this old man can still make the decision to hold an auction for Young Master today."
Wu Feng nodded.
"Since Senior can make the decision, that's naturally a good thing. There's really nothing to say to those who can't make the decision, it's just a waste of time."
Ning Qi nodded with a faint smile.
"Young Master, please follow me."
Wu Feng smiled, making an inviting gesture with his hand.
This time, Wu Feng did not stop Donglai and Wu Jin from entering the inner room.
Outside the inner room, the crowd exchanged a glance, seeing the anticipation in each other's eyes.
"Miss Xuanxuan, I'll make a bet with you, this kid will definitely be kicked out of the Black Warrior Auction House. Elder Wu Feng is not so easy to fool."
Meng Shaoyin smiled confidently.
"Is that so? Then let's bet a divine artifact, how about it?"
Mu Lan Xuanxuan smiled faintly.
"En?"
Meng Shaoyin blanked for a second, he didn't expect that his joke would actually be taken seriously? Really want to bet a divine artifact?
Watching Mu Lan Xuanxuan looking at him with a hint of a smile in her eyes, Meng Shaoyin laughed heartily, "Then this one won't stand on ceremony, I thank Miss Xuanxuan for the divine artifact in advance."
A trace of anger flickered in the eyes of the maids following behind Mu Lan Xuanxuan, thinking that Meng Shaoyin was too arrogant. The outcome of the battle hadn't even been decided, how could he be so sure that he would win?
Then again, they found it strange, why was their young miss so confident in that guy? Taking out a divine artifact to bet with Meng Shaoyin?
What kind of treasure could a cultivator from a mere Eastern Profound Land have?
… …
"Take it out. Elder Wu Feng is here, no one will snatch it from you."
Lan Mu mocked as soon as they entered the room.
Ning Qi glanced at him, smiled at Wu Feng, and took out the mid-grade blood jade.
The atmosphere in the room froze as soon as the bright red blood jade appeared. Wu Feng, Lan Mu, and Lan Mu's maids all stared at the blood jade, not daring to breathe loudly!
Lan Mu's expression changed from suspicion to surprise, to horror, to disbelief, and finally, his face and ears turned red.
Shu Donglai watched the scene with a smile, a trace of smugness flashing in his eyes.
"This, this can't be …"
Wu Feng's hands trembled as he gently took the blood jade from Ning Qi's hands. After looking at it carefully, he looked at Ning Qi in shock and said in a low voice, "Blood jade?"
"Yes."
Ning Qi nodded indifferently.
Lan Mu felt as if all his strength had been sucked out, his body slumped to the ground. Never in his wildest dreams did he imagine that this country bumpkin in front of him would have a divine artifact like this blood jade! No wonder his subordinates said that even Eternal Life Realm cultivators would want to snatch it. Even if it was the trashiest low-grade blood jade, it could increase one's cultivation speed by several times. It could be used as a sect's treasure ah!
"Low-grade blood jade?"
Wu Feng swallowed nervously, looking at Ning Qi with wide eyes.
He had worked in the Black Warrior Auction House for so many years, but honestly speaking, he had only heard of blood jade's name, but he had never seen one with his own eyes. Just now, he had secretly tested it, and his cultivation speed had greatly increased. This thing was indeed a genuine blood jade, but Wu Feng wasn't sure of its grade.
"Medium-grade blood jade."
Ning Qi stated nonchalantly.
Clang!
Everyone turned to look at Lan Mu, who seemed to have sprained his ankle, bumping into the wall.
Watching Wu Feng's cold gaze, Lan Mu squeezed out a bitter smile, cupping his fists at Ning Qi, "Young Noble, this one has eyes but failed to recognize Mount Tai, please forgive me."
