"2,000,000 Spiritual Stones!"
Shock!
As soon as Lu Yin made her bid, everyone's attention was drawn to these two. Most people didn't pay much attention to Xie Qing, they were only interested in Lu Yin.
"The heir of the Nine Pills Sect made a bid?"
"Oh, that old man doesn't dare to compete with the young lady!"
"Healer Lu wants that cauldron, so it will be hers!"
"Our family will give up this lot to Lady Lu!"
"The Jian family will also give up!"
Xie Qing was speechless, as was the host. The young man was more shocked by the difference in behavior of these old bones, while the host was crying bitter tears.
"We could have sold the cauldron for ten million!"
The organizers cried bitterly, realizing their losses. However, what could they do? Insult the heir of the Nine Pills Sect for a few million Spiritual Stones? That was too reckless!
Lu Yin was also surprised at how easily she managed to get the cauldron and smiled brightly as she accepted the item and paid for it.
"I'm so lucky! This cauldron has good properties and can help make more high-quality pills!" Lu Yin said happily, putting the cauldron into her spatial ring.
She turned to Xie Qing, who had been silently watching the situation, and asked with a bright smile:
"Would you like sothing? I'll buy you a gift in return."
"? Nothing, to be honest..." Xie Qing replied, shrugging. "I would buy myself so clothes, but I don't see any suitable lots yet."
"Clothes? Got it!"
Lu Yin nodded and began to carefully watch the scene. Xie Qing fell silent and wanted to say that she didn't need to go to such trouble... but her enthusiasm was too cute.
The other lots were not particularly interesting. For Xie Qing, the System Store was a more profitable purchase.
But even so, he did not expect to find sothing that would catch his attention.
"Dear guests, the items we have presented so far have been just a warm-up! Now we will show you the five main items of tonight's event. Under your thunderous applause, we present to you... the Silver Dragon Diadem!"
"Ooooo!"
"Dragon heritage! It's amazing!"
Xie Qing narrowed his eyes. He sensed a faint, almost imperceptible, but still present dragon aura in the diadem. It belonged to the Silver Dragon.
Unfortunately, this was just a "sigh". And when I say sigh, I an it literally.
By reaching a high stage of cultivation, a cultivator can endow objects with special powers with just one breath. Most likely, soone in ancient tis found the Silver Dragon and, while it was sleeping, brought the diadem closer and made this item.
An absurd story to the point of nonsense, but it was true. Xie Qing had bought several historical books from the system store. Although such items no longer appeared, they opened his eyes to the world beyond the Mortal World.
"Wow! The Silver Dragon is a legendary figure that no one has seen... I thought it was a myth..."
Lu Yin was amazed when she heard the detailed description of the item. The young man blinked.
"Do you want to buy it?" he asked, scanning the auction hall and ignoring the fierce glares of the Nine Pills Sect disciples.
"I-I do, but... I'm sure it will be too expensive..." Lu Yin said, biting her lip with a sad sigh. "Oh well, it doesn't matter..."
"Hmm..."
Xie Qing narrowed his eyes. He could make such an item himself, but the girl would have to wait until he went through the first dragon blood awakening.
As the others competed, he searched the system store and found sothing interesting.
[Golden Dragon Diadem] | [Price: 15,000,000 Spiritual Stones] | [Description: A special diadem imbued with the blood of the Golden Dragon. Can create a barrier capable of blocking up to ten attacks from a Transcendence cultivator. Also, due to the special symbols and solidified blood of the Golden Dragon, Qi accumulates faster than usual].
"The price is steep, but..."
The young man tilted his head to the side and saw disappointnt on Lu Yin's face. Although she also had Xie Qing's funds, she didn't want to spend more than necessary.
"Screw it. Money is ant to be spent. I can't wear these items anyway..."
Xie Qing waved his hand and instantly 15,000,000 Spiritual Stones disappeared from his spatial ring, and a wonderful Diadem appeared in his hand.
With a wave of his hand, he created a barrier around them that prevented the outside world from peeking in.
"Hm? What's going on?" Lu Yin asked, puzzled, noticing the barrier.
"Nothing serious. This is my gift to you," the young man said, placing the diadem on Lu Yin's head.
The Golden Dragon Diadem was made of rare mythical immortal gold. Moreover, the bright red, like ruby, gemstones had a special attractive power.
This was the solidified blood. The young man could tell that this blood was real, because his body reacted to it.
"Unfortunately, even if I absorb this blood, the diadem will be destroyed," he thought.
While the young man was lost in thought, Lu Yin was stunned. She touched the diadem and her mouth opened in the shape of the letter "O".
Quickly taking out a small mirror, she examined herself and was shocked.
"How beautiful! And the spiritual energy from this spiritual item... it's amazing!"
Lu Yin was incredibly happy and imdiately threw herself into Xie Qing's arms and buried her face between his neck and shoulder.
"T-thank you so much."
"You're welco."
Xie Qing smiled weakly, gently stroking her back. Fortunately, he had set up a barrier in advance, anticipating such a situation.
Lu Yin slled really good, as if he had entered a field full of fragrant flowers. Her slender and delicate body was not as mature as Xu i's, but it was very pleasant to hold.
The young man sat down in his seat, and Lu Yin settled on his lap. Although this position made the girl a little embarrassed, her heart was filled with sweetness.
"I'm sorry, sister Yuilan... I couldn't give up..." Lu Yin thought with a hint of sadness.
She was still embarrassed to think that she had fallen in love with Xie Qing, especially since her efforts were aid at preventing this from happening.
Lu Yin didn't know how to explain this situation to her friend. However, it was too late to back down now, and she could only hope that Li Yuilan wouldn't be offended by her.
And while these two lovebirds flirted under the cover of the barrier... step by step, everything was approaching the mont to show Xie Qing's lot.
"And so, ladies and gentlen, I won't keep you waiting any longer. Our next and final lot will suit those who have the Yin attribute. Please, guests, take your seats... The Heavenly Yin Pendant!"
***
"Wh-what?!"
In one of the VIP rooms, a woman was sitting. Her outfit was quite conservative, not allowing anyone to see her appearance.
"Mom... that's..."
"Yes, my daughter... the lost artifact of our Yin family! How is this possible? I thought it was destroyed when our ancestor tried to ascend to the Immortal World!" the woman exclaid in shock.
"Incredible. The Heavens have not turned their backs on our family, Mom!"
"Yes, my daughter..."
This was the Yin family. There were only three people in the room, two of whom were won dressed in luxurious clothes, and the third was an old woman in a servant's uniform.
Xie Qing watched with interest as the auction began with great enthusiasm.
"The Bai family bids 10,000,000 Spiritual Stones!"
"The He family bids 15,000,000 Spiritual Stones!"
"The Chen family bids 22,000,000 Spiritual Stones!"
Xie Qing couldn't help but smile behind his mask as he heard the amounts these old n were offering. Although for many this pendant was useless... it was always useful to keep the famous Yin family in debt, right?
And then, like a roll of thunder...
"The Yan family bids 45,000,000 Spiritual Stones!"
Silence. Even the most arrogant rich people realized that at this mont they had been kicked off the stage. Exchanging glances, many began to give up.
In the Yin family room.
Boom!
"That bastard! Old son of a bitch! He won't miss a chance to spite my Yin family?! Hmph!"
"M-mom, calm down..."
"Calm down? How can I calm down? This is the legendary heritage of our family! We must get it, even if I have to sell myself!"
The woman's voice was filled with anger and despair. This pendant could fall into anyone's hands, but not the Yan family's.
Gritting her teeth, she announced her price.
"The Yin family bids 50,000,000 Spiritual Stones!"
Imdiately after that, the crowd beca excited. The Yin and Yan families were here! That ant... a fight was brewing.
Xie Qing smiled, watching this chaos.
"Let make so money," he chuckled, leaning back in his chair and stroking Lu Yin's hair.
