"Gudong."Ning Wufeng heard the sound of the waiters and guests beside him swallowing their saliva. Many people stared straight at the purple-dressed woman.
He recovered his wits and thought to himself: What a beautiful woman.
"Auntie Xiao, you"re trying to pull this off again." Ding Yuan was also in a daze for a long while before he suddenly spoke.
Xiao Ziyi covered her face and chuckled lightly. She coquettishly rolled her eyes at Ding Yuan. "Big Brother Ding, those words are really serious."
Ding Yuan panicked again.
What a tyrannical charm. Ning Wufeng suddenly came to his senses. Ding Yuan was referring to the purple-clothed woman"s Charm Spell.
Luckily, he had a strong spirit sense and quickly came to his senses. However, the waiters and guests still seemed to be in a daze.
As Ning Wufeng was thinking, an alluring fragrance wafted over him, the fragrance of the flowers was strong, but not pungent. He looked down and saw a long white leg peeking out from the purple cheongsam, slender and straight, like a masterpiece.
Ah!" After a moment of confusion, he woke up and quickly took a few steps back, almost knocking the waiter over.
The purple-clothed girl snickered. She didn"t retreat, but took another step forward. Her towering chest was trembling, almost touching Ning Wufeng"s body.
"Little big brother, I heard that you have a Tier 3 spiritual formation for sale? I wonder if I can let Zi Yi take a look. " The purple-clothed girl exhaled like an orchid, and her voice was even more melodious like an oriole in a valley. If it was an ordinary man in Ning Wufeng"s position, he would have lost three souls immediately.
Ning Wufeng lowered his head and saw the beautiful white flowers within his purple robes. He took a deep breath and maintained the clarity in his mind with his Spiritual Sense. His gaze also returned to normal.
"Miss Xiao is the auctioneer of this auction and also a famous expert at appraising treasures." Ding Yuan explained.
"Then I"ll have to trouble Miss Xiao." Ning Wufeng pa.s.sed the Four Symbols Demon Slaying Spiritual Array to Xiao Ziyi.
"Just call me Ziyi." Xiao Ziyi snickered, his jade-like fingers were as white as spring onion, and as he received the jade slip, he even lightly traced the back of Ning Wufeng"s hand.
Ning Wufeng"s fingers trembled, and his old face turned red. He secretly shook his head in his heart and threw out those charming thoughts.
Xiao Ziyi received the jade slip and closed her eyes, slowly feeling it. He was no longer bewitching like how he was before, instead, he looked more charming and serious.
After a long while, she opened her eyes and smiled. "It really is a third grade Battle-Spirit Formation. Moreover …"
Her voice suddenly stopped as she chuckled: "Wait until after the auction ends, young master should not be in a hurry to leave." There"s something I need to discuss with you. "
Saying that, she laughed lightly, twisted her body, and left with a sway of her bottom. Another wave of people were gulping down their saliva.
"Bro, what good luck." Ding Yuan patted Ning Wufeng on the shoulder and said with a smirk, "I"ve never seen Miss Xiao so close to anyone before. There"s always a chance."
Ning Wufeng shook his head with a bitter smile, "Brother Ding, you must be joking. It"s not like you don"t know my situation."
"Haha, then let"s enjoy the blessings of the Qi Clan." Ding Yuan laughed heartily and pulled Ning Wufeng towards the auction place.
The auction plaza of Riverside Pavilion was around four to five hundred square meters. There were no less than two to three hundred people seated, but it did not feel crowded at all.
The group of people chatted in whispers, and from their accents, Ning Wufeng could hear that they had quite a few foreign accents. It was most likely a merchant from another city.
The red carpet"s auction platform was around three to four meters high, ensuring that everyone could see the items on the stage. At the same time, there were also three huge, mirror-like, grinding stones that reflected the items on the stage.
"Welcome, everyone. Auctioneer, Lady Xiao Ziyi is here." A pretty female attendant said in a clear voice.
She had the beauty of a little girl, but once Xiao Ziyi entered the stage, all eyes were instantly focused on her. The waitress"s gaze instantly became gloomy.
Ning Wufeng could also faintly hear the sound of saliva being swallowed.
"Where did this girl come from? I like her!" Coincidentally, the room next to Ning Wufeng happened to be occupied by Wu Gang.
"Hehe, gongzi, I heard that the beauty has quite the background. Even Manager Ding wouldn"t dare to offend her." Beside him, a henchman was chuckling.
"Interesting," Wu Gang touched his chin and chuckled, "It has even more charm than the Chen family"s little girl."
Ning Wufeng"s spiritual sense was so strong that he couldn"t help but frown when he heard it.
"Greetings, officials." Xiao Ziyi bowed gracefully. Her voice was extremely clear and moving, refreshing everyone who heard it.
"h.e.l.lo, Lady Ziyi."
"Good morning, Miss Xiao."
Many people greeted her one after another, all waiting for the beauty"s gaze to be able to look at him. If she could return a smile, then her life would be perfect.
Ning Wufeng suddenly felt a gentle gaze falling on him, and his face stiffened. He didn"t know when Xiao Ziyi turned to look at him, but she purposely gave him a coquettish look, causing his heart to tremble.
The guests sitting on the chairs in the main hall of the house on Ning Wufeng"s side also saw this and thought that Xiao Ziyi was doing something to them.
"I"m finished, I"m finished. Lady Ziyi probably has her eyes on me." One person was intoxicated to death.
"Nonsense, you obviously fell for me." A short, short, and thick man said indignantly.
"What did you say? Do you believe that I"ll get someone to carry you out?" The two almost got into a fight over this.
"Thank you for giving me face, all of you guests. The next item is the first auction item."
"The Mandarin Duck Knife comes from the Spirit Shrine. The Spirit Shrine"s name and meaning didn"t need to be explained by Ziyi, everyone understood it. The starting price for this middle grade Mortal Grade treasure blade is five hundred spirit stones. " Xiao Ziyi opened the red tray that the waiter had served.
Two fiery red sabers. One was long, and it was the main attack; the other was short, and suitable for defense. The blade was streamlined and was inlaid with precious fire spirit stones.
Spirit stones were divided into ordinary spirit stones and spirit stones of different attributes. Spirit stones contained spirit energy, and were used as currency in the transaction. Attribute Spirit Stones were even rarer and more precious because they carried the attributes of the five elements or special attributes and could be converted into the corresponding attribute power.
For example, this pair of yuanyang blades emitted flames as their blades flashed.
"I"ll pay a thousand." shouted a guest with a knife.
"I"ll pay fifteen hundred."
Very soon, the price of this Mundane Stage Mid Rank Mandate surpa.s.sed that of an ordinary Mundane Stage High Rank weapon. Of course, a large part of the reason was because of Xiao Ziyi.
3100 spirit stones for this yuanyang saber.
"Congratulations, sir." Xiao Ziyi pointed to the person who had bought the saber. That person suddenly felt as if he had stepped onto the peak of his life and won the attention of everyone.
The second item for auction is Pulse Cleansing Pill." The Meridian Cleansing Pill can cleanse a cultivator"s spirit vein, and can expand a cultivator"s spirit vein to a certain degree. " Xiao Ziyi said with a smile.
Suddenly, the entire venue was in an uproar. A Meridian Washing Pill had actually appeared.
The common sense of the continent was that spirit veins were innate, so there were as many as one had. It was impossible to cultivate to a spiritual vein the day after tomorrow, so of course there would be many geniuses who would make a wrong move to save the country.
The Meridian Purification Pill was one of them. Since the number of spirit veins had already been decided, then if one could expand the spirit vein, it could similarly increase the capacity of the spirit energy.
"The starting price of this Meridian Washing Pill is 5,000 Spirit Stones." Xiao Ziyi lightly said. The price of a elixir instantly exceeded that of a mandarin duck knife.
"Six thousand Spirit Stones." Someone immediately shouted.
"Ten thousand." The price was instantly raised by a level.
"My Ning family bids thirty thousand!" Some of the people from the Ning Family spoke up, causing the price to rise quickly, directly shaking off a large number of people who still had hopes of winning.
This Pulse Cleansing Pill had appeared just before the four great inst.i.tutions had joined forces to recruit students. Countless young talents had mustered their strength. How could they give up if they were able to make a breakthrough with the help of an external force?
"The Ning Family only has 30,000?" A sinister voice sounded from the cubicle next to Ning Wufeng. It was Wu Gang, "I bid fifty thousand!"
Fifty thousand Spirit Stones was already a very high price. It was almost close to the true price of the Meridian Purification Pill.
"Young Master Wu is indeed generous. The Wu Clan is indeed the best financial inst.i.tution in the whole of Jiangning." Xiao Ziyi snickered.
When Wu Gang heard the conversation between the beauty and him, his eyes immediately lit up and he said, "You are too kind, Lady Ziyi. As for the money, it"s good as long as you don"t bring it with you. If there"s a chance, I, Wu Yi, would also like to invite Miss Zi Yi for a while. "
"Looks like Young Master Wu is determined to get the Meridian Washing Pill." Xiao Ziyi chuckled as she covered her face. Her delicate body was trembling slightly, and her ample chest immediately attracted countless gazes.
Wu Gang"s eyes lit up and he said boldly, "Of course."
"I"ll pay a hundred thousand."
Ning Wufeng said indifferently. Even though the Meridian Washing Pill was nothing to him, it was still fun to scam this young master Wu while he was courting his own death.
"A hundred thousand?" Many foreign merchants were surprised. Normally, the price of a Pulse Cleansing Pill would be between 70,000 and 80,000 RMB. This person was obviously trying to make things difficult for Wu Gang.
Wu Gang"s face darkened. If he didn"t take back what he had just said, he wouldn"t have any face left in the future, not to mention in front of a beauty like Xiao Ziyi.
"One hundred and ten thousand!" Wu Gang shouted and added, "I wonder which brother in the underworld would like this Meridian Washing Pill. If you would like it, I will wait for the auction to begin. I will take a look for you."
"If Young Master Wu has the ability to boast, are you not able to eat this Meridian Washing Pill?" Ning Wufeng said coldly.
"One hundred and fifty thousand Spirit Stones." He made a careless offer.
"Are you trying to make things difficult for my Wu family?" Wu Gang suddenly stood up from the bench and shouted to Xiao Ziyi: "Miss Ziyi, I suspect that this guy doesn"t have that much money!"
Xiao Ziyi smiled. A servant behind her stepped forward and whispered a few words. She raised her head and said: "Rest a.s.sured Young Master Wu, I can vouch for the people in the pavilion."
Who could actually make the G.o.ddess-like Xiao Ziyi vouch for him? It sounded like a man.
The crowd immediately burst into an uproar. Wu Gang"s face instantly turned unsightly.
"I bid two hundred thousand!" I want to see which cow-like snake dares to challenge my Wu family! " Wu Gang shouted angrily.
Ning Wufeng rubbed his nose. He had been keeping a close eye on Wu Gang with his divine sense. Seeing his fl.u.s.tered expression, he knew that the price had not reached Wu Gang"s bottom. He laughed lightly and said, "Then it"s two hundred and fifty thousand."
What? Two hundred and fifty thousand!
It was enough to buy three Meridian Cleansing Pills. Everyone"s eyes turned to Wu Gang as they were unable to back down from Wu Gang.
