Chapter 146: The Auction (2)

Sui Wenyan saw their expression but unable to say anything. She could only smile bitterly and pointed at the auction house before them.

"Let's get in."

Lin Xiao showed the ticket that Zhongsun Shan had given him not long ago then entered the auction house along with the other two. When they departed back then, Zhongsun Shan didn't forget to give them tickets to attend the auction.

It would be a joke if they were refused at the entrance because they didn't have tickets.

"Is it VIP or normal?"

"Normal." Lin Xiao himself was glad when he saw that the ticket was normal ones. He didn't' want to attract attention and with his current rank, he knew better than to create a mess in the middle of nowhere.

Sui Wenyan nodded. "Let's pick a seat."

"Ok."

The Auction house was large with a lot of seats. It looked like a lecture hall with the center being the stage for the MC to start the auction and pull people to hike the price. There were already a lot of people inside and from their clothing, it was clear that they were all rich people.

Comparing their clothes to Lin Xiao and the others would be an utter embarra.s.sment.

"Should we change clothes first?" Lin Yun asked, his face a bit red.

"Well, just leave it be." Lin Xiao knew that clothes that was made of good fabric would be very expensive. Rather than wasting the gold they earned with difficulties in that matter, it would be better for him to use it for cultivation.

It was not like they were trying hard to impress someone, right?

"Alright."

They took a seat, ignoring the obvious scorn and mocking gazes from the people nearby. Only towards Sui Wenyan did they droll and some men were even trying to get close. However, they didn't dare to create trouble because in this auction house there were a lot of powerful guards.

If they don't want to get kicked out, they should stay away from troubles.

Sui Wenyan only clicked her tongue when she saw their reaction. Obviously, she hated men who would stare at woman's body without reservation like that. But their real intention of coming here was for the auction, so she wouldn't let those people made things difficult for her.

"Do you want to buy anything, Wenyan?"

They were given paper list of the items in the auction. Sui Wenyan was currently browsing while calculating the money she had. "I'm thinking of buying something that can enhance my capabilities."

"Such as?"

"Skill book, pills, but these are all too expensive." Sui Wenyan could only grit her teeth when she saw the rare pills in the list. The effect was astoundingly good even for a Foundation Establishment like her. However, the price would make her heart bleed. Not to mention, in an auction, the price could be inflated a few more times.

"Which one?"

"Yin Qi Pill," Sui Wenyan admitted.

Lin Xiao glanced at the list and sucked a deep breath. The base price was 10,000 gold for that Yin Qi Pill or one Low Grade Spirit stone. Recalling his wealth, Lin Xiao felt that it was a mistake for him to come here.

Wenren Yu arched his eyebrows when he heard what Sui Wenyan wanted. "Help me advance to Foundation Establishment then I might be able to help you."

"You?" Sui Wenyan was stunned. It was then she recalled that Wenren Yu was an alchemist and naturally knew how to make medicine. Her eyes shone at that thought. There were several pills that has cultivation restriction to make them because of the plenty use of Qi. Yin Qi Pill was included. Based on the record, the lowest cultivation stage one could attempt to make this pill would be Foundation Establishment Stage.

Many usually failed, though. Because of that, this pill was usually made by Alchemist at Golden Core Stage.

Wenren Yu nodded. He might not be able to make the pill in one go, but he knew the recipe. His master was one of the few great alchemist in the entire Sun Kingdom, so he had learned a lot. Unfortunately, his low rank prevented him from even trying to make the pills and medicine.

Many would be doomed to fail because he was still only at Body Training Stage.

"Alright. I'll count on you. One of the materials is Night Yin Flower. The base price is also 10,000 gold tsk."

Lin Xiao nearly dropped from his chair when he heard what Sui Wenyan said. Wait, this flower's base price was the same as Low Grade Spirit Stone? Thinking about the manager that he met yesterday, he was tempted to ask for them to pay him with Low Grade Spirit Stones instead of gold.

He needed Spirit Stones more.

"Don't worry, you don't need to bid," Wenren Yu a.s.sured Sui Wenyan.

Looking at their expression, Sui Wenyan felt a bit odd. It was as if these three were not worried about the materials at all. Her eyes landed on Wenren Yu's Spatial Ring before she shut her mouth.

She might not be the smartest person in the entire kingdom, but she could guess that they might have already gathered more than enough herbs from their journey. She didn't know where they were staying before they met in Feng Yi City either, so there was no use even if she tried to think so much.

"Then, what should we buy?" Sui Wenyan asked.

Lin Yun was the only one who was scrutinizing the list from the very beginning. Lin Xiao only paid attention to the skill books and medicine like Sui Wenyan. Unfortunately, the high price prevented him from buying them even if he wanted to.

Well, once Night Yin Flower was sold, it might be a different case, though.

"Brother, I want Dragonfly Gra.s.s," Lin Yun remarked from the side.

"Hmm?" Lin Xiao glanced at the list and noticed that the base price for the gra.s.s was only 100 gold. Even if it was hiked thanks to the auction, it shouldn't be that much.

"Alright."
