Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 923: Chapter 923 Red Feiyi Waist Card

Although mentioning the base price was essentially meaningless,

the fact remained that 1 million low-grade Spirit Stones was no trifling sum, and there weren’t many in the hall truly qualified to compete.

”Five million!”

Perhaps finding the gradual increases too troublesome, Fengming Bo, seated among the audience, directly upped the bid from one million to five million.

Such was the way of the wealthy; they simply didn’t regard money as an object of concern.

Many who had been prepared to place a bid now closed their mouths, silently cursing Fengming Bo to an early demise.

”Six million!”

Feng Qingyan stated calmly.

His purpose for attending the auction was precisely for the Golden Crow Sword. After all, strong individuals enjoyed tackling challenges, and this mere Immortal-grade Treasure puzzled him because no one seemed able to use it practically, which was somewhat beyond the comprehension of a strong practitioner like himself from the Yin-Yang Realm.

Therefore, he had made a special trip here, planning to take it back for thorough research. Who knows, he might discover something valuable.

”Seven million!”

The bid came once again from Fengming Wan Zhong.

”Fengming Wan Zhong, are you a child? Whatever I want, you want too?”

Feng Qingyan asked with a smile.

”If you want it, I will make sure you don’t get it. What can you do to me?”

”Then I don’t want it anymore!”

Feng Qingyan sought the Golden Crow Sword merely out of an interest in study and play, without much practical value.

He had no intention of overpaying because of Fengming Wan Zhong.

With the two of them bowing out, the atmosphere at the auction became suddenly subdued, which was an outcome Yun Ya had not anticipated.

After all, if the Golden Crow Sword was unusable, it was much like a worthless object to many; martial artists were not fools.

Already at 7 million low-grade Spirit Stones—who would be willing to bear such a loss?

”Seven million one hundred thousand low-grade Spirit Stones!”

Just when Yun Ya thought the treasured sword was going to be passed in, a voice rang out.

She turned to look and, to her surprise, it was Feng Yanran.

”You’re out of your mind, girl—weren’t you only supposed to have five million low-grade Spirit Stones? How do you suddenly have the money for this?”

Even Feng Qingyan gave Feng Yanran a puzzled look, asking with some confusion.

”It wasn’t me!”

Feng Yanran shook her head, unable to explain properly.

She hadn’t intended to bid for the item, but she had just received a Whispering Secret Sound Transmission from Ling Xiao asking her to help win it.

Naturally, she didn’t mind since it wasn’t her money being spent.

Ling Xiao couldn’t bid for it himself.

After all, he was currently disguised as Mister Ghostface. If he won the treasured sword, and it later appeared in front of others,

even a fool would be able to connect Ghost Face with Ling Xiao.

”Seven million one hundred thousand low-grade Spirit Stones, is there anyone else who wishes to raise the bid?”

Yun Ya looked all around but felt rather helpless.

No one seemed eager to continue contesting with Feng Yanran for the Immortal-grade Treasure.

The Immortal-grade Treasures were indeed favored and valued by Heavenly Realm Martial Artists, but once one reached the Cave Heaven Realm, the pursuit shifted to Divine Artifacts.

Though it was true the Golden Crow Sword could evolve by itself, finding the Twelve Sacred Flames was no idle task. Even with the time, there was no guarantee they could be found.

The item was nothing but a beautifully misleading trap.

”Alright then, congratulations to Miss Yan Ran for successfully acquiring the Golden Crow Sword!”

Yun Ya announced the outcome with resignation.

At this point, Ling Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.

The price of the Golden Crow Sword wasn’t high, even one could say it was too low.

At least, that’s how it seemed to him.

For the sword was not as simple as it appeared on the surface, and what Yun Ya had mentioned was not comprehensive.

Although Ling Xiao had not yet figured out the Golden Crow Sword, once he got it in hand and had a chance to research it thoroughly, he would understand.

Feng Yanran took the Golden Crow Sword and followed Feng Qingyan back to Qingxu College first.

Of course, the cost of 7.1 million Low-grade Spirit Stones for the Golden Crow Sword was recorded on the account.

Ordinary people dared not run up a tab here, and neither would Yun Ya, which clearly showed that Yun Ya’s relationship with Crown Prince Feng Yinshan was no ordinary one.

Ling Xiao then left the VIP room and headed to the Treasure Identification Pavilion to retrieve his money and then buy materials to refine the Heavenly Spirit Divine Pill, planning to go back for secluded cultivation.

He only waited a moment in the Treasure Identification Pavilion before Yun Ya came back with a smile.

”Senior, here are 20 million Low-grade Spirit Stones, please take them.”

Yun Ya directly handed over her Storage Ring to Ling Xiao.

”You auction houses really are generous. Don’t you take commission?”

Ling Xiao asked curiously.

”This time we’ll waive the commission, and also, please take good care of this Red Feiyi Waist Token. Our Heavenly Dragon Auction House has branches not only on the Divine Phoenix Continent but also on the Five Immortal Islands, the White Tiger Continent, and even other continents throughout the Mysterious World. With this Red Feiyi Waist Token, whenever you auction items at our Heavenly Dragon Auction House, the commission can be reduced from ten percent to one percent!

Moreover, if you want to bid on items, you’ll also be charged at the rate for Martial Artists.”

Yun Ya said with a smile.

”Won’t you be at a loss doing it this way?”

Although Ling Xiao was very pleased, he knew that the Red Feiyi Waist Token wasn’t easy to come by.

”Senior need not doubt. The reason I’m giving you this waist token is simply to encourage you to look after our business in the future. If you have newly-refined pills, you can bring them to our Heavenly Dragon Auction House for auction, that’s all.”

Yun Ya explained with a smile.

”If that’s the case, it’s acceptable.”

Ling Xiao casually took the Red Feiyi Waist Token and then placed it into his Storage Ring.

Such a benefit was not to be declined.

Especially since it was not a high demand from the other party.

In the future, if he wanted to make money, he’d probably have to auction pills, so a continuous cooperation with the Heavenly Dragon Auction House was feasible.

Yun Ya, this woman, was more inscrutable than he had imagined.

At first, Ling Xiao thought she was just an independent princess from the Sacred Dynasty.

Meeting her here, he felt she was adept at manipulation.

Only when Yun Ya mentioned that the Heavenly Dragon Auction House had branches throughout the entire Mysterious World did he suddenly realize.

This Yun Ya was likely not as simple as she seemed.

Was this woman’s identity merely that of a princess from the Sacred Dynasty?

What level of expert was she?

Mulling this over, he gave Yun Ya a few more glances, but even the analyzing abilities of Mountain and River Martial Soul could not see through her.

”Take these 7.1 million Low-grade Spirit Stones; they are for the Golden Crow Sword.”

Since he could not see through her, Ling Xiao couldn’t be bothered to guess any further. After all, his current relationship with this woman was cooperative, not hostile, so there was no need to make things unnecessarily complex.

”So it turns out Miss Feng Yanran auctioned the Golden Crow Sword for you?”

Yun Ya suddenly understood.

”That’s wrong, I gave it to Ling Xiao as a present, and I hope you do not leak this matter. Otherwise, our cooperation is off.”

Ling Xiao stated indifferently.

”Senior, rest assured, it absolutely will not happen.”

Yun Ya could feel that Mister Ghostface trusted her more now; otherwise, he wouldn’t have told her this.

Therefore, she had to reciprocate that trust and naturally dared not break the agreement.
