"Liang Nine must've eaten a bear's heart and leopard's guts. Even though he used to be unrestrained, he still behaved himself in front of the Profound Sect. He doesn't even dare to breathe loudly. Why is he acting like a completely different person today?"
"Yeah. I heard that he only comes to the competition to make a small bet. There's no reason for him to be so interested in this Yuan Increasing Pill."
Liang Nine was feeling miserable as well. When he made the blood oath, he was instigated by Ye Zifeng to keep it a secret. At first, he was laughing at Ye Zifeng for being too cautious. But now, it seems like Ye Zifeng had planned this all along.
Yao Chong's face stiffened. Although he really wanted to get his hands on this Huang Grade Spirit Increasing Pill that was concocted using the ancient method, 1500 gold coins was already an impulsive bid. Who would have thought that this ordinary-looking person would actually dare to chase after him and increase the price!?
Liu Bingqian's eyes lit up. She didn't think that the pill she concocted would be so popular.
"Big brother rough guy, if I really earned 1500 gold coins, can I ….."
Ye Zifeng smiled and looked deeply at her, "What's wrong Bingqian. You said that you wouldn't take a single cent from me. Now that I've earned so much, aren't you a bit jealous?"
It would be a lie to say that she wasn't jealous. 1500 gold coins. Even if he split it 50/50 with the Muyun clan, that's still 750 gold coins! One had to know that this was merely the price of a single pill!
Bingqian giggled, "I, Bingqian, always keep my word. However, since you've earned so much this time, shouldn't you buy me a present? "
"Present? What present do you want? "Ye Zifeng smiled and asked.
From what he can see, Bingqian was the eldest daughter of the number one clan in Leizhou City. How could she lack money? Why would she need him to buy her a present?
Bingqian cursed in her heart. She looked at Ye Zifeng shyly, "If it's a present, you can buy whatever you want."
Ye Zifeng scratched his head, "Alright. I'll remember this."
While the two of them were chatting casually, the other side was already in a heated argument.
Yao Chong of the Mystic Gate coldly stared at Liang Nine. "Because of you, I've already increased the price to 1,800 gold coins. Do you still dare to increase the price?"
Liang Nine's group of ten brothers pooled their money and managed to gather one thousand and eight hundred gold coins. However, this was already the limit for them.
"Master of the Celestial Sect, I, Liang Nine, beg you. I really need this pill. Please do me a favor and give it to me!"
"What a joke. The people of my Celestial Sect of Wonders …" When did we need to look at the faces of others? " Yao Chong had always been quite disdainful of this kind of common folk. Usually, he was too lazy to even talk to them. And when common folk met people from the Celestial Sect of Wonders, they would usually take a detour and not fight with him.
Liang Nine's face darkened after he said all the nice words, "I've already said it all. No matter what you say today, no matter who you are, I, Liang Nine, will take this pill!"
"Preposterous!" Yao Chong's face turned ashen. He placed the sword on his back on the ground and coldly glared at Liang Nine.
In this way, the atmosphere in the auction hall, which was originally fine, suddenly became a little tense.
As the host of the alchemy competition, Muyun Old Devil saw that the atmosphere wasn't right. Naturally, she had to say a few words.
However, Ye Zifeng was already one step ahead of her, "You two only want to buy the Yuan Increasing Pill. Why are you guys making things so unpleasant?"
"It's all because of you!" Hearing this, Liang Nine and Yao Chong both snorted at Ye Zifeng.
Ye Zifeng smiled and didn't mind, "Actually, don't you guys think that there's a better way to solve this?"
"What do you mean?"
Ye Zifeng laughed and pointed at the Yuan Increasing Pill that he had concocted.
"Bingqian and I concocted a Yuan Increasing Pill. Didn't we concoct two Yuan Increasing Pills? The two of you, one for each of you. Wouldn't that solve the problem perfectly? "
Yao Chong coldly looked at him, "That's easy to say. However, I want two Yuan Increasing Pills. Why should I give one to him?"
Liang Nine was furious right now, "That's right. I'm the one who bought the pill. Why should I split it with him?"
Ye Zifeng's smile became wider, "That's right. I understand how you guys are feeling right now. I have a good way to solve this problem."
He paused for a moment, and before they could react, he continued.
"Yuan Increasing Pill. One Yuan Increasing Pill for one thousand eight hundred gold coins. If someone is willing to pay three thousand six hundred gold coins, then I'll let them buy two. How about that?"
"Three thousand six hundred gold coins?! Why don't you go rob someone! " Even though Yao Chong was an elder of the Profound Sect, he was still shocked by Ye Zifeng's actions.
Ye Zifeng smiled, "I'm very fair. I also understand that 3,600 gold coins isn't a small sum, so it's more suitable for two people to share the price. Of course, if a big shot is willing to pay 3,600 gold coins for two pills, then the other person must also be convinced, right? "
Liang Nine pondered for a bit and gritted his teeth, "I think that this is acceptable."
Yao Chong stared at him, "Don't tell me you agree with him. You want to buy one Yuan Increasing Pill for one thousand eight hundred gold coins?"
Even if it was an elixir concocted using the ancient method, a Spirit Strengthening Elixir being sold for one thousand and eight hundred gold coins was definitely the highest price among the highest!
"If you don't agree, then are you going to keep bidding with me until the price reaches ten thousand gold coins and then start fighting?" Liang Nine angrily replied.
"This …. That makes sense." Yao Chong was extremely angry. If it wasn't for Ye Zifeng, he would've made a move already.
Yao Chong didn't know that Liang Nine didn't think about the effects of the pill at all. It was because of the blood contract between him and Ye Zifeng that he had no choice but to buy the pill at the highest price.
Right now, Ye Zifeng's suggestion was able to guarantee that Liang Nine would be able to fulfill the terms of the contract. Liang Nine immediately agreed. If he kept on bidding like this, then he would really go bankrupt and owe a huge debt.
Ye Feng smiled faintly. He looked towards Mu Yun Old Devil, "Lord Old Devil, auction my two pills separately. Is this possible?"
Muyun Old Devil cursed in her heart. This little bastard is so crafty. He actually dragged me into this. But then again, the higher Ye Zifeng's pills are, the more money she'll get. She won't object to this.
"This ….. If you and Bingqian don't have any objections, then I don't either. Of course."
Ye Feng turned around and looked at Liang Nine and Yao Chong with a smile, "Since Lord Old Devil has said so, You see, why don't you give face to Lord Old Devil and buy this Yuan Strengthening Pill for one thousand eight hundred gold coins each? "
Even Yao Chong, the leader of the Celestial Sect of Wonders, could not help but admire the art of his words.
Liang Nine was the first to open his mouth, "Fine! One thousand eight hundred gold coins it is! I, Liang Nine, will do what I say. I'll buy it! Lord of the Profound Sect, if you have the ability, then take out three thousand six hundred gold to buy two pills! "
Yao Chong fiercely glared at him, "Do you think I'm a fool? Three thousand six hundred gold for two pills? No matter how rich you are, you can't be so wasteful! Alright, for the sake of Lord Old Ghost, I'll use one thousand eight hundred gold coins to buy a Yuan Strengthening Pill. "
"The two of you are truly forthright people. You're so confident and at ease. You guys have the demeanor of a famous sect. Zifeng is in awe! "
This time, Ye Zifeng concocted a pill and split it 50/50 with Old Devil. He was able to earn a thousand and eight hundred gold coins. This was definitely a huge profit. Naturally, he didn't mind using this opportunity to praise them, so that their wounded hearts could be comforted a little.
Before, Yi Hao's pill sold for three hundred gold coins and Xu Zhen's pill sold for four hundred gold coins. Hua Shao was smart and sold it for eight hundred gold coins. However, the three of them only sold it for one thousand five hundred gold coins. It wasn't even half of what Ye Zifeng sold it for. This result made everyone speechless.
Those that were scolding Ye Zifeng for being a pretty boy immediately changed their tune and started to discuss amongst themselves.
"I wonder which family had the fortune to have such a genius in the business world. With such a son, the family will definitely prosper!"
"It seems like Bingqian didn't bring this person to help her concoct pills. He's here to help her sell her pills. From this point alone, this person is truly amazing!"
After a round of discussion, Liang Nine brought close to ten brothers and emptied their pockets, taking out all the gold they had on them. Only then did they manage to gather one thousand eight hundred gold coins and hand it over to Muyun Old Devil. Naturally, the latter was grinning from ear to ear. Her happiness was evident on her face.
After Liang Nine handed over all the gold coins, he bitterly walked over to Ye Zifeng.
"Little brother, since you already knew about this method, why didn't you say anything earlier? Weren't you afraid that I would fight with that big shot from the Profound Sect and cause a huge commotion? "
Ye Zifeng smiled, "Of course I know. When I was concocting pills, I was already observing your expressions. I have a rough idea of what the bottom line is."
"So that's how it is. You know our bottom line."
Liang Nine nodded as if he understood something. He slowly walked to the place where the crowd gathered, but in his heart, he felt that something was wrong.
