Chapter 584 Bringing the Dead Back to Life
“Brother Qiu, please do as I say later.” Chu Xun secretly transmitted a voice to Qiu Yunping. He said he wanted the 12 Star Flags.
Even if the 12 Star Flags were low-grade Divine Relics, they could definitely be equal to a middle-grade Divine Relic. Moreover, with the Massive Killing Formation of the 12 Stars, he could definitely exert double of the power. Even faced with Mo Yan, he could easily kill him.
The people present did not know the value of the 12 Star Flags and only thought that they were powerful. Treating the flags as ordinary Sacred Relics, they began to bid. At the mont, the price of the 12 Star Flags was no more than 3,000 spiritual herbs.
“5,000,” Qiu Yunping said, and the others were silent.
Everyone knew that as long as Qiu Yunping bid, the price of the Star Flags would increase sharply. His first bid was 5,000 spiritual herbs. Compared with the reserve price of 2,000 spiritual herbs, it had more than doubled.
“6,000.” As expected, as soon as Qiu Yunping finished his words, Lei Han imdiately bid.
It was going to be a perfect show where the two competed with each other. In fact, many people ca to participate in the bidding to watch the show and broaden their horizons. Not everyone was rich.
“7,000,” Qiu Yunping said.
“8,000.” Lei Han bid after him.
“Fuck, you idiot. You just bid 1,000 more than the previous bid,” Qiu Yunping shouted with disdain all over his face.
Everyone felt dizzy. Weren’t you raising the price by 1,000 a ti?
“10,000.” Qiu Yunping bid directly.
“11,000,” Lei Han replied.
“Fuck,” Qiu Yunping directly swore, “20,000.”
Everyone erupted into an uproar. Had Qiu Yunping gone mad? He didn’t look like bidding but in anger.
Lei Han stared at Qiu Yunping. He did not intend to win the 12 Star Flags but to embarrass Qiu Yunping. However, Qiu Yunping had offered 20,000 spiritual herbs already. Lei Han was afraid that if he continued to bid, Qiu Yunping might stop bidding.
Lei Han’s eyes flickered, and he stared at Qiu Yunping. He wanted to see if Qiu Yunping really wanted the flags or tricked him.
“21,000 herbs.” Lei Han finally found the courage to take the risk.
After bidding, Lei Han pretended that he did not care, but in fact, he had been paying attention to Qiu Yunping out of the corner of his eye.
“You win.” Qiu Yunping laughed heartily.
Lei Han waited for a long ti, only to hear the words. He was shocked and had been fooled again. 21,000 mid-grade spiritual herbs were almost all he had.
The others were gloating. It was much more interesting than an auction itself.
Lei Han pretended not to care about Qiu Yunping and said, “I wondered how rich the Young Master of the Shadowless Sect was, but it turns out that you are just bluffing.”
“Are you trying to excite ?” Qiu Yunping laughed loudly. “I won’t be fooled. Do you want to bite ? Why do you spend 21,000 spiritual herbs for 12 small flags? Are you crazy?”
Lei Han was furious. He thought the 12 flags were not worth 21,000 spiritual herbs. He had planned to plot against Qiu Yunping but ended up hurting himself.
“Is there anyone else wanting to raise the price? 21,000 first.” For the first ti, Mo Nai acted like an auctioneer, eagerly waiting for soone to bid. He wanted to save Lei Han.
However, the people present were not fools. Even if having enough spiritual herbs, they would not buy the 12 small flags. They were not sabers or so on. It was not convenient to use them.
“21,000 twice.” Mo Nai hamred a second ti, giving Lei Han a helpless look.
Every ti the hamr fell, Lei Han’s face darkened. It was as if the hamr had hit his heart. He felt heartbroken. He was going to lose all his money. Seeing that Mo Nai was about to hamr for the third ti, Lei Han felt extrely uncomfortable.
“21,100,” when Mo Nai’s hamr was only one centiter away from the table, Qiu Yunping shouted.
Mo Nai abruptly stopped the auction hamr. At the ti, it was still a few milliters away from the table, and it almost made a sound.
Lei Han widened his eyes. His only thought was that he had preserved his fortune.
“Hey, look at you. It’s just more than 20,000 spiritual herbs. You looked as if you had lost your parents. I’m kind, so I help you. Why not hurry up and kneel down to thank ?” Qiu Yunping looked at Lei Han with sarcasm on his face and said.
The scene erupted into an uproar. They all felt that they didn’t co in vain. It was truly amazing.
“Mr. Qiu, don’t think too highly of yourself. When do I need your help?” Lei Han’s face darkened, showing no gratitude at all.
Qiu Yunping shrugged. “You wrong a kind-hearted person. Then you can continue bidding.”
Lei Han was annoyed. It was not easy for him to wait for a higher price, so how could he bid again?
“You don’t dare, do you? Since you don’t dare, don’t pretend to be rich here,” Qiu Yunping said disdainfully. And then he said to Mo Nai, “Then bring my little flags. When I go back, I’ll inlay gold stars on them. They will look better.”
The corners of Mo Nai’s mouth twitched. He knew that Qiu Yunping did it on purpose. Who would use Sacred Relics as ornants?
In the end, the 12 Star Flags were Qiu Yunping’s. In fact, their owner was Chu Xun.
“The next auction item is a great dicinal herb, Shengyang Flower. It can bring the dead back to life or greatly improve a living person’s cultivation.”
Mo Nai’s words caused an uproar among the crowd. It was a magical herb that could bring the dead back to life.
Chu Xun narrowed his eyes slightly. It seed that the auction of the Shengyang Flower must be very fierce. What should he do?
“Damn it. Have you ever taken it? Why do you know it can bring the dead back to life? Please don’t brag. I can understand that you want it to have a good price. However, you have exaggerated its effect, haven’t you? It is easy for you to talk without practice. If soone offers a high price for it, but it turns out that its effect is worse than that of an ordinary spiritual herb. Who can take the responsibility?” Qiu Yunping said after getting Chu Xun’s permission.
What Qiu Yunping said made sense. Although so ancient books recorded the effect of the Shengyang Flower, no one had taken it in reality. The effect of the flower was just from a rumor, which was too unreliable. Therefore, the uproar in the crowd gradually cald down.
Mo Nai glanced at Qiu Yunping imperceptibly, his eyes glinting with coldness. He really wanted to kill Qiu Yunping.
“Everyone, don’t you trust the reputation of Xihe Auction House? The Shengyang Flower is recorded in many ancient books, and we have asked specialists to appraise it. Its effect is the sa as what is recorded in the books,” Mo Nai said.
“Specialists? Who are the specialists? Please tell us their nas. Do you think those unknown people can be called specialists? I won’t be completely at ease unless you can find soone like Chu the Devil to appraise it.” Qiu Yunping shouted loudly, “If you don’t show authoritative proof, I won’t believe your words.”
Mo Nai’s face darkened. There was a foul aura surging around him. He forcibly suppressed his impulse to attack Qiu Yunping and said loudly, “Everyone, as the saying goes, seeing is believing. Is the Shengyang Flower really effective? I believe that you can judge for yourself and will not be deceived by the other people.”
“I like to hear that. You must keep your eyes open and don’t listen to those who make a living by talking,” Qiu Yunping shouted.
Mo Nai’s expression was gloomy as he clapped his hands.
A young man walked over with a long jade box. Mo Nai opened the box directly. In an instant, the whole hall was filled with a dazzling red light, and the sll of dicine was refreshing.
Chu Xun narrowed his eyes slightly. It was indeed a Shengyang Flower. Its shape was like a sunflower. It was one ter long and covered with red clouds. It was said that a Three-legged Golden Crow had a short stop on the Shengyang Flower, so it had Three-legged Golden Crow’s solar power.
“Everyone, what do you think of the efficacy of the Shengyang Flower?” Looking at all the people intoxicated in the fragrance of the flower, he asked proudly.
Everyone nodded. Just the sll of it was enough to make one feel refreshed. If one ate it, it might truly produce miraculous effects. The saying that it could bring the dead back to life might not be nonsense.
“Mr. Qiu, what do you think of it?” Mo Nai looked at Qiu Yunping, adding, “Now, do you still think it’s fake?”
“Of course, I still think it’s fake,” Qiu Yunping said.
Mo Nai wasn’t angry at all this ti. “Oh? Since you think it’s fake, do you have any evidence, Mr. Qiu?”
Everyone was also curious. The Shengyang Flower looked equal to its reputation, so how could it be fake? They were also curious whether Qiu Yunping said that on purpose or had real evidence.
“The Shengyang Flower is the legendary secret dicine. Not to ntion where it cos from, the efficacy of its fragrance alone can’t prove it can bring the dead back to life. It can only deceive amateurs. I have an ordinary Biluo Herb here, just a mid-grade spiritual herb. Through so special ans, its fragrance is very amazing. Please have a look.”
After that, Qiu Yunping took out a ten-centiter-long herb from his Storage Ring. It emitted green light. It was a Biluo Herb, a common kind of spiritual herb.
Suddenly, a green light shone brightly from it, illuminating a radius of more than ten ters. Its fragrance spread and suppressed the sll of the Shengyang Flower.
“Everyone, this is not the ordinary Biluo Herb, but a legendary great dicinal herb, Phoenix Flower. What do you think of it?” Qiu Yunping was covered with its green light, and he showed the Biluo Herb to everyone with a smile.
“Everyone, do you believe that it is a Phoenix Flower? It is a great dicinal herb that can bring the dead back to life. Now, its price is 500 spiritual herbs. The opportunity will not co again. Don’t miss it.”
Everyone was stunned. Was it a genuine Phoenix Flower? It looked like a Biluo Herb no matter how they looked at it. Wasn’t it crazy to exchange 500 spiritual herbs for the Biluo Herb?
“Mr. Qiu, this is just a special Biluo Herb. I don’t believe it is a Phoenix Flower,” a warrior shouted.
“All right, you have seen through it.” Qiu Yunping put away the Biluo Herb in an embarrassed manner. Then, he said, “To be honest, it is indeed a Biluo Herb. It was tainted with the fragrance of another spiritual herb, so it slt different. There were originally two of them. After taking one, I thought its effect was not as good as that of an ordinary Biluo Herb. Its outer appearance can deceive people.”
Everyone nodded one after another. They understood. Now the earth was full of strange things, so Qiu Yunping’s example was not strange at all.
“Well, everyone, hurry up and bid for this sunflower... Uh, no, it’s the Shengyang Sunflower.” Qiu Yunping walked back and sat down. He looked at Chu Xun and asked, “Do you think that the Shengyang Sunflower looks like the mutated sunflowers in my backyard?”
“You’re right, Young Master,” Chu Xun said, peering at the Shengyang Flower at auction, “there’s sothing I forgot to tell you, Young Master. Two of our mutated sunflowers were lost a few days ago. Soone had stolen them.”
