Chapter 1264: 560: Princess Nai’er? Make a fortune at the auction!_2
…
Rakshasa City, Heaven and Earth Pavilion.
Three days passed swiftly, and the monthly grand auction at the Heaven and Earth Pavilion officially comnced.
Lanling entered with one hundred and fifty thousand Gold Coins, his target was singular: the Eye of the Ghost King.
He was almost the first to arrive, and within a quarter of an hour, guests continued to enter one after another.
Perhaps, only at this grand auction could the mainstream status of the Rakshasa Tribe be truly demonstrated.
To participate in the grand auction of the Heaven and Earth Pavilion, there was no doubt that all were prominent figures. Lanling noticed that, without exception, all the entrants were Rakshasa Tribespeople.
Of course, Lanling did not know a single one of them.
And among these Rakshasa Tribespeople, there was no interaction at all, they just entered indifferently and sat down coldly.
Lanling even awkwardly noticed that most of those entering were won.
The host of the auction was still that white-haired, red-faced lady Store Manager. After entering, she said, “Today, we are honored by the presence of the Eighteenth Princess Consort of the Little Barbarian King. Everyone, please rise and welco her.”
Imdiately, all the distinguished guests present rose to their feet.
Subsequently, several Barbarian Warriors entered and secured every key point at the entrance, coldly watching everyone.
Then, four maidservants led in a dazzlingly beautiful woman, who entered gracefully.
Lanling desperately suppressed his inner astonishnt, but his gaze still flickered.
Because the one who entered was Nini’an, Konstantin’s daughter, Nini’an.
“Greetings to the Eighteenth Princess Consort.” All the guests present respectfully knelt on one knee to salute.
At this mont, Lanling deeply felt that Nini’an had truly risen to unprecedented heights, even as the Little Barbarian King’s eighteenth concubine, her status was supre.
However, he was really curious about how she managed to marry the Little Barbarian King?
In terms of status, she was rely a Chieftain’s daughter; in terms of beauty, she was not as good as Sisi, the Second Mistress, or even Ali, Goufu’s wife.
To put it bluntly, among the female guests present, Lanling noticed at least four or five won whose looks surpassed Nini’an.
Could it be because Konstantin gave a dowry of thirteen thousand Gold Coins?
Previously, Lanling might have thought that was the reason, but entering Rakshasa City completely dispelled that notion, the Rakshasa King was imnsely wealthy, and Konstantin’s thirteen thousand Gold Coins would not catch his eye at all.
Neither in status nor in beauty did Nini’an qualify to marry the Little Barbarian King, not even as his eighteenth concubine.
Nini’an excelled in scheming and putting on airs.
After entering, she gave a light glance without any greeting and rely nodded before sitting down.
At this mont, Lanling sensed that her favor with the Little Barbarian King might be average, at least she ca alone, the Little Barbarian King did not accompany her.
Yet it was unclear which treasure she had set her eyes on this ti.
Lanling was not worried about being recognized by Nini’an, as that was impossible. The Transforming Elixir not only turned Lanling into a Rakshasa but also allowed him to easily shield his energy aura with spiritual power.
Had Nini’an such high ability, she wouldn’t have needed to marry far away as soone’s eighteenth concubine.
…
With no formalities, the lady Store Manager directly announced the auction to begin.
“The first treasure is a white platinum dagger.”
Following her words, a female warrior showcased the stunning and sharp white platinum dagger before everyone.
It was indeed stunning, nearly transparent white.
Moreover, it was very light, weighing only a few ounces.
Its sharpness was such that it could cut through iron like mud. A maidservant with no strength easily severed a hundred-pound heavy sword with it, and then effortlessly pierced through a thick armor.
“The starting price of this white platinum dagger is eight thousand Gold Coins, bidding starts now!” announced the lady Store Manager.
“Eleven thousand!”
“Twelve thousand!”
“Thirteen thousand!”
As the lady Store Manager described, although the white platinum dagger is not very rare, it sells easily, and within this auction environnt, its price can be easily raised, for it appeals to a wide audience.
“Fourteen thousand!”
A noble Rakshasa man placed his bid.
This price already exceeded the market value by over twenty percent, so no one else bid, and the white platinum dagger fell into the hands of this young Rakshasa Tribe Warrior.
Lanling observed his sword, faintly bearing a flag emblem, suggesting that he might be from a clan of flag bearers.
If it were a Chieftain’s child, they wouldn’t be willing to spend fourteen thousand Gold Coins on a white platinum dagger; after all, it was just a dagger, not a sword, with little practical use.
“Fourteen thousand Gold Coins, deal!” declared the lady Store Manager, striking the gavel.
Lanling’s white platinum dagger set a strong opening, fetching a high price.
The lady Store Manager continued, “The second treasure…”
She paused briefly, then said, “Is a Flowing Years Elixir!”
At these words, all the won present were in an uproar!
The Flowing Years Elixir, to many won, is a dreamlike object.
Upon consumption, one instantly becos twenty years younger, but the price is a shortened lifespan by ten years.
It sounds both dreamy and terrifying.
If they had to choose, ninety percent of the won would refuse to consu it. However, this doesn’t hinder their admiration and amazent for the Flowing Years Elixir in their hearts.
The lady Store Manager said, “As everyone knows, for over two hundred years, no one has been able to create the Flowing Years Elixir. It is absolutely a case of using one less than one, so its rarity and value are self-evident!”
