They were completely shocked, including Zhu Xiangyu. Just like theunaffiliated, he started to question the truthfulness of it all.
All the eyes focused on the Cheng’s father and daughter, as though theywere trying to find answers from their faces.
Even the old dean couldn’t help but felt surprised. With a bit ofurgency, he asked, “Little BIyuan, is that true?”
Cheng Biyuan took a look at his daughter before he nodded at the olddean.
He didn’t say anything, but confirmed that they did, indeed, have possessionof mystical herbs!
Mystical herbs!
Everybody’s chest were burning with desire. Their eyes widened andfilled with antic.i.p.ation.
Right then, Old Man Ying’s voice rang again, “We have included 10different species this time: snow ginseng, fiery fruit, black gra.s.s, red bloodgra.s.s, flaming wolf, purple cloud, yellow ground jade, dragon gra.s.s, meatyganoderma, and fleeceflower. Each portion will contain one of each. Startingbid is 800 mystical stones. Beginning NOW!”
“1,000 mystical stones!”
The bid had gone up by 200 stones almost immediately; clearlydemonstrating how desirable these items were.
“1,300 mystical stones!”
“1,500 mystical stones!”
“……”
“3,000 mystical stones!”
“3,300 mystical stones!”
“……”
“5,500 mystical stones!”
With this one loud cry, the bidding madness finally came to a halt. Thefirst portion was sold for 5,500 mystical stones.
Cheng Xiao Xiao was also stunned by this amount. Now that she knew thesemystical stones were such hot commodities, she could sell on the mystical herbsgoing forward and that would be enough to earn her plenty of mystical stones.
The second lot went for 6,000 mystical stones. Then the third, and thefourth….
All ten portions were sold and the Cheng’s tallied tens of thousands ofmystical stones. These stones combined were able to stash into a smallmountainous pile!
With all these mystical stones, Cheng Xiao Xiao couldn’t help but wonderhow much would the dimension level up wit the help of these stones.
Naturally, all these herbs were bought by those from the Top Nine Sectsand prominent families.
The unaffiliated were only able to look on with jealous and envy. It wa.s.simply impossible for them to come up with that much mystical stones. Theycould just look on longingly.
When the last portion was sold, everybody knew that the Cheng’s publicsale had finally came to an end.
Some of the attendees couldn’t help but inquired about the date of thenext auction!
Cheng Xiao Xiao hadn’t expected that question. After thinking about itfor a short while, she figured the earliest would still have to be six monthsaway. As for the exact time, it would be announced as time got closer.
Right when Cheng Biyuan was about to announce the closing of theauction, a voice came out of nowhere, “Hold it right there! There’s something Iwant to say!”
