Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 554: Chapter 301 Auction of Yaoguang’s Personal Items

After completing the transaction, Gu Sheng walked away satisfied, holding the Shaking Light Saintess’s undergarment and other items. Meanwhile, the Shaking Light Saintess stared hatefully at his retreating figure, her heart filled with humiliation and unwillingness.

She knew that she had lost this confrontation utterly. Not only had she lost face, but she had also sacrificed some precious treasures. However, what frightened her the most was Gu Sheng’s unfathomable strength and cunning mind—this man would undoubtedly become a major threat in her life!

...

Shortly after leaving the icy plains, Gu Sheng found a secluded spot to rest. Sitting cross-legged, he began to examine his spoils.

Besides the undergarment, the Shaking Light Saintess had given him plenty of good stuff: several bottles of Holy Medicine for healing, a few rare materials, and a Jade Scroll containing a manual of the White Lotus Scattered Blossoms Cultivation Technique!

To Gu Sheng, these items were incredibly useful. Especially the cultivation technique manual—it was as if he had laid his hands on a priceless treasure!

The White Lotus Scattered Blossoms was the Shaking Light Saintess’s signature technique, and its power was undoubtedly extraordinary. If Gu Sheng could successfully cultivate it, his strength would soar!

Gu Sheng played with the undergarment he had stripped from the Shaking Light Saintess in his hand, a teasing smile on his face. While the undergarment had no practical use for him, it was, after all, a personal item of that woman. Keeping it might prove useful in some way.

Just as he was pondering how to deal with this unexpected ”trophy,” Xing Lie, Wu Tianxiong, Ying Tianxing, and Kou Hai suddenly appeared in his line of sight.

”Brother Gu, what is that?” Xing Lie immediately noticed the undergarment in Gu Sheng’s hand and curiously came over.

Gu Sheng smiled faintly, responding with a question instead, ”Why don’t you guess?”

Wu Tianxiong and the others also gathered around, looking at the undergarment with inexplicable expressions. They weren’t fools. Connecting the dots to the earlier clash with the Shaking Light Saintess and seeing the smile on Gu Sheng’s face, how could they not understand the hidden tale?

”Could it be...” Kou Hai’s eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.

”That’s right.” Gu Sheng nodded, confirming their suspicion, ”This is the undergarment of the Shaking Light Saintess.”

As soon as he said this, the four of them burst into laughter. Xing Lie even snatched the undergarment and brought it to his nose to sniff, his face showing a look of indulgence: ”Ah, so fragrant... This is indeed her personal item!”

”Brother Xing, that’s a bit too direct, don’t you think?” Wu Tianxiong teased.

”Hahaha, Brother Wu, don’t tell me you’re not tempted to experience the essence of the Saintess?” Xing Lie shot back.

The group erupted into laughter again. Looking at them, Gu Sheng felt a surge of boldness. These brothers were people he could trust. Being with them, he felt more relaxed and at ease than ever before.

”Alright, let’s get to business.” Gu Sheng waved his hand to stop their laughter. ”How should we deal with this undergarment?”

”If you ask me, why not take it to an auction?” Ying Tianxing suggested. ”Surely, many would be interested in this item.”

”An auction?” Gu Sheng raised an eyebrow. ”That’s not a bad idea.”

”Yes, an auction!” Xing Lie slapped his thigh. ”Not only can we earn a hefty profit, but we can also humiliate that woman thoroughly!”

The group exchanged smiles, feeling that this was an excellent idea. After finalizing the details, they left the icy plains, taking the undergarment with them.

Several days later, news spread like wildfire across the Cultivation World: the personal undergarment of the Shaking Light Saintess would be auctioned at a major event!

The news caused a massive stir, leaving countless people shocked and intrigued. Who was the Shaking Light Saintess? She was the exalted Holy Daughter! That her personal item would end up at an auction? Unbelievable!

On the day of the auction, countless cultivators gathered for the spectacle. Some came to see what the Saintess’s personal belonging looked like; others hoped to snag a bargain; and some were simply there for the entertainment.

The auction hall was packed with people, bustling with excitement. Discussions filled the air, voices overlapping in anticipation of the legendary Saintess’s undergarment making its appearance.

Finally, under the gaze of the eager crowd, the auctioneer presented the much-anticipated lot—a pair of faint pink undergarments!

”Ladies and gentlemen, take a look!” The auctioneer raised the undergarment high, announcing loudly, ”This is the crowning jewel of today’s auction—the personal undergarment of the Shaking Light Saintess! The starting bid is ten thousand Spirit Stones!”

The auctioneer’s words caused an uproar. Ten thousand Spirit Stones? For ordinary people, this was an astronomical figure! But for wealthy cultivators, it was nothing. Soon, the bidding war began.

”Fifteen thousand!”

”Twenty thousand!”

”Thirty thousand!”

...

The price skyrocketed, quickly surpassing the hundred-thousand mark. This left everyone in awe. Who would’ve thought such a seemingly trivial item could fetch such an outrageous price? Unbelievable!

Meanwhile, in a VIP room, Gu Sheng and the others were grinning from ear to ear. Even they hadn’t anticipated the undergarment would sell for such a fortune. It was an unexpected windfall!

”Hahahaha...” Xing Lie laughed as he clapped Gu Sheng on the shoulder. ”Brother Gu, you’re truly our lucky star! Not only did we make a fortune this time, but we also gave that woman a crushing humiliation! This is fantastic!”

”Exactly, exactly!” Wu Tianxiong and the others echoed. ”We owe it all to Brother Gu’s brilliant idea!”

Gu Sheng smiled slightly, saying nothing. He understood that their success wasn’t solely due to his cleverness but rather the result of their teamwork and solidarity in facing challenges together. This strengthened his resolve to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with these brothers in the future.
