Chapter 520 Moral Kidnapping
The maid introduced, "This is our first lot - Tianshan Snow Lotus. It was picked from the snow mountain on the north side of the Seventh State. Its efficacy is beyond words. The starting price is 20,000 high-grade spirit stones, and each bid must not be less than 5,000 high-grade spirit stones."
"Twenty-five thousand high-grade spirit stones!"
“Thirty thousand high-grade spirit stones!”
"Fifty thousand high-grade spiritual stones!"
The first Tianshan Snow Lotus was quickly sold for 50,000 top-grade spirit stones, and the auction continued.
Xue Yi and the others sat and watched the show until the soul-nourishing wood was brought up.
She sat up straight and stared at the box.
The maid uncovered the silk covering it, and in an instant, the entire auction hall seemed to be filled with a warm and ancient atmosphere.
In the box, a piece of wood with a faint glow all over it lay quietly. The light was soft and not dazzling, as if it contained infinite depth.
Xue Yi's eyes were instantly attracted by it, and an inexplicable desire and sense of closeness surged in her heart, as if there was some indescribable connection between this soul-nourishing tree and her.
She couldn't help but reach out her hand, feeling like she wanted to touch him.
How is this going?
The maid on the stage has already started bidding. "The Ten Thousand Year Soul Nurturing Wood is extremely rare. Our master risked his life to get this piece. It can nourish the spirit and soul and warm the seven spirits. It is an excellent choice for people with damaged souls. Due to its rarity, the price is also more expensive. The starting price is 10 million high-grade spirit stones, and each bid must not be less than 5 million high-grade spirit stones."
In the lobby on the second floor, the guests looked at each other in bewilderment, and the sound of conversation rose and fell, like the chirping of cicadas on a summer afternoon. It was lively yet somewhat unbelievable.
"Ten million high-quality spirit stones? That's simply a sky-high price!" A cultivator dressed in brocade clothes shook his head, his eyes full of astonishment.
"This Soul-Nourishing Wood is so expensive, boss, do you still want to do business? Apart from those few forces in our Second State, who dares to bid for it?"
"Alright everyone, stop arguing, or Boss Long will tear your mouth apart!"
On the third floor, the lights in several private rooms flickered, reflecting different expressions.
Behind a carved wooden window, a man in a black robe gently stroked the teacup in his hand, a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he said calmly: "Fifteen million." Although the voice was light, it fell like a heavy hammer on everyone's heart, causing ripples.
Other rooms also began to bid, "30 million."
"Thirty-five million."
"Forty million."
"Fifty million!"
"Sixty-five million! Who dares to snatch things from my Wanfa Sect? We will not let them off easily!"
The person sitting in the private room opposite Xue Yi and the others directly opened the curtain and threatened everyone.
There was some discussion coming from the private room on the third floor, and then it died down.
Just when the people of Wanfa Sect thought they had a sure win, Xue Yi started bidding.
She had a cold expression and her eyes were fixed on the soul-nourishing wood. She was determined to get this wood!
"Ninety million."
The people from the Wanfa Sect across the street stared at them angrily, but the auction house set up a curtain to protect the privacy of the guests.
With this kind of curtain, people outside cannot see inside, but people inside can clearly see outside.
"Who the hell did you come from? How dare you snatch things from our Wanfa Sect! Do you want to die?"
Upon hearing this, Xie Lanyue, who was in Xue Yi's private room opposite, stood up immediately and was about to go out to help Xue Yi, but was stopped by her.
She said in a cold voice, "The auction house always goes to the highest bidder. I don't care if you are from the old sect or the old sect. If you can't come up with spirit stones, get out."
"You!" The person on the other side was obviously broken-down and was about to continue arguing when a weak-looking woman walked out of their private room.
She bowed in the direction of Xue Yi and began to wipe her tears. "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you all. It's our fault for disrupting the order of the auction house and breaking the rules. Yue Lan apologizes to everyone here."
When the people in the lobby heard this, they began to chatter again.
"It's Young Master Yue Lan! He's kind and beautiful, everyone please be considerate."
"Qin Yuelan rarely comes out, why did she come out to attend the auction this time?"
"Is it because Young Sect Master Yue Lan is not feeling well and needs help? Let the one upstairs be given to her."
"Yes, the one on the third floor, let's give it to the young master..."
Seeing that the situation was in her favor, Qin Yuelan raised the corners of her lips and pretended to be touched. "Thank you, everyone. I filmed this video of the Soul-Nourishing Wood to nourish my body. Everyone knows that Yuelan has been mentally unstable and weak since childhood. Thank you for speaking up for me. I wonder if the girl opposite can give up her love."
Xueyi was so angry that she laughed. Was he trying to blackmail her morally?
ill.
Ji Xueyi wouldn't buy it.
"Is this woman sick? She has no money, so she has no money, but she still wants to give up her love. Cut off her head." Xie Lanyue had a bad temper. He kept waving the Qianji fan in his hand. He wanted to slap the woman opposite him in the face.
How dare she ask Axue to give her the things?
Since I was weak and sickly since childhood and need money, then just raise some money. What a nonsense!
"At an auction, the highest bidder wins. Xiaoyi, you don't have to give in. Just bid your price," Jiang Shouyu comforted.
"Shoot. If I can't take the picture, I'll snatch it from you." The killer is ruthless and doesn't talk much.
Although Bai Ye and Ji Li did not speak, it was obvious that they also felt it was ridiculous, and neither of them thought that they should give it to Qin Yuelan.
