Chapter 108

Auction (I)

On the way to the Seven Stars auction house, You XiaoMo also buys a lot of food.

After dawdling all the way, they finally reach the auction house before the start of auction. When they appear again at the entrance of the auction house, the entrance that didn’t have many people yesterday, is suddenly completely clogged up. There’s also a lot of chaotic noise, extremely lively.

You XiaoMo’s mouth hangs open as he looks at this scene. He is thinking that if he were to squeeze in there, his already skinny body, would it be squeezed flat? The answer is obvious because that throng of people are mostly strong and sturdy men.

“Elder brother Ling, how are we going to get in?”

You XiaoMo swallows and throws the question to Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao stretches out his hand to him, “Give me that card.”

You XiaoMo is momentarily stunned and then quickly hands over the black card to him, really curious to see his next move.

After Ling Xiao takes the card, he simply walks towards another entrance. There are relatively less people there. Also, that entrance is guarded by four powerful strong men. From their aura, one can sense that that they are Sky level strength. The four of them allow Ling Xiao and You XiaoMo to enter.

Some people see what they did so they want to turn around and follow them in. The four strong men immediately bar them from following. Those people can only rub their noses resentfully and go back to squeezing into the flow of people.

The passageway is somewhat dim and seems to be winding upwards, as if going to the second floor.

You XiaoMo follows closely behind LIng Xiao. At the last turn, the narrow passageway suddenly opens up. An incomparably gigantic auction house appears in front of him. Although he is mentally prepared, he is still shocked when seeing it with his own eyes.

Below are numerous closely spaced seats made out of white colored stone, giving off a bright and luxurious feel. In front is a big auction platform made out of white crystal. Dazzling and crystal clear, seeming dreamlike.

You XiaoMo’s first impression is extravagance. Just when he is looking at this scene in amazement, a pretty female attendant walks towards them, and asks respectfully, “My two sirs, may I ask which seat number do you have?”

Ling Xiao lets the girl take a look at the black card in his hand. The attendant immediately nods and brings them to their spacious and luxurious seats. Level two distinguished guest seats are carved out of blue crystal. Thick and fluffy wool coverings are spread on top. Sitting on it feels especially soft and cozy. Also, the seats are relatively closer to the auction platform. One can easily take in almost the whole scene.

You XiaoMo unabashedly occupies one of the seats and starts looking all over in high spirits.

The seats for the distinguished guests are on the second floor of the Seven Stars auction house. The nearer the seats are to the auction platform, the higher the level of the distinguished guest card. Furthermore, because there isn’t any covering, everyone can see those sitting on the distinguished guest seats.

When You XiaoMo is checking out the other people, they are also checking him out. After all, those that are able to come up to the second floor’s distinguished guest seats are all people with power and prestige. Suddenly a small weak person popping up is really surprising to a lot of people. But when they see Ling Xiao sitting at his side, most of them no longer feel so surprised.

“Young miss, what are you looking at?”

Elder Yun notices the woman’s gaze and asks softly.

“Elder Yun, look. Aren’t those two on the opposite side the ones we saw in Seven Stars tower? I didn’t think that we would meet them again so soon. Looks like we are somewhat fated, I believe everyone is very curious to know what magic pills are in here. Old me will also not keep you in suspense any longer. These are five bottles of level two magic pills ……. ”

Just as he says level two, the place starts to buzz. The old man is not surprised, continuing on, “Everyone must be very curious as to why level two magic pills can be brought up for auction. These level two magic pills are actually top grade magic pills. Two hundred and fifty pills altogether. From the color and scent, they are all top grade magic pills of the best quality.”

Saying that, the old man simply pours out a few magic pills from the bottle to let them have a look.

One look at the magic pills rolling in the bottles, and waves of commotion rise one after another.

This amount is definitely not small. Furthermore, the quality is that good. No wonder the auction house decided to put these level two magic pills up for auction. Based on the price for this many magic pills, it actually barely manages to qualify to get on the auction block.

Seeing that his words bring about quite a lot of reaction, the old man nods in satisfaction. Then he waves his hand as he says, “If you are interested, don’t hesitate. If you miss this opportunity, there won’t be another. We will now start the bidding. The reserve price is one hundred and thirty thousand.”

“One hundred and forty thousand!”

As soon as he finishes speaking, someone immediately raises the first bid.

“One hundred and fifty thousand!”

“One hundred and sixty thousand!”

On the second floor, at the distinguished guest seats, You XiaoMo’s jaw falls onto the railing.
