Chapter 97

~7 min read 1,386 words

Are you guys from the Divine Prefecture Auction House still doing business? What's this helping people bid on their behalf? Bring the seller out, I want to ask him face to face why he won't sell to me!

When the He family members were all fuming, customer number 33 had had enough.

Sorry, the seller won't sell, and we can't do anything about it.

I don't care, I've already offered such a high price, and you're saying you won't sell just like that?

Despite Xie Yuyan's earnest explanations, customer number 33 kept causing trouble and being unreasonable.

He is also the head of a major clan, with his strength at the Fourth Realm.

This doesn't mean his clan is weak; in such a major clan, the patriarch usually handles trivial and miscellaneous affairs, while the true experts devote themselves wholeheartedly to cultivation and rarely show themselves.

Exactly, we've already made our offers, and you're saying you won't sell just like that—then what business are you even in?

Have the seller come out to clarify; I suspect there's some shady deal—did you take some kickback and deliberately sell it to someone else?

The He family members also joined in the uproar.

Especially He Huan, who made the biggest fuss.

The secret realm examination is imminent, and this Spirit Quiet Pill is crucial for him.

Without a Saint-grade Spirit Quiet Pill, a Heaven-grade one would do, but the Heaven-grade Spirit Quiet Pill has a low success rate and its effects are diminished.

Especially when opening the Sea of Consciousness, the difference can be huge.

When the people from the two clans started making a racket, Xie Yuyan suddenly found it hard to bear.

These two clans are no pushovers; in the capital they count as major clans.

One is the He clan, the other is the Lin clan.

In both clans there are more than one Fifth Realm expert, and the Lin clan is rumored to possibly have a Six Realm expert.

Members of the other clans just watched the spectacle, with no one intervening.

They actually also wanted to know who exactly had produced so many Saint-grade pills.

If they could make his acquaintance, they wouldn't have to worry about pills in the future.

Boss...

Don't worry.

Lu Xun still wasn't ready to show himself, even if it meant letting Bai Ling step onto the stage.

The timing isn't right yet.

Suddenly, a terrifying aura descended from the heavens.

Its terrifying pressure left everyone somewhat breathless.

The vast auction hall fell silent in an instant.

Six Realms!

The He clan patriarch's eyes narrowed as he watched the descending figure.

Obviously, the other party is a Six Realm expert.

When a Six Realm expert unleashes their full pressure, the sense of oppression is unparalleled.

The seller won't sell, and our Divine Prefecture Auction House can't make the call either—please understand, both of you!

The Six Realm expert slowly spoke.

If that's the case, we're leaving.

The Divine Prefecture Auction House had even invited a Six Realm expert to preside; the He clan patriarch knew that causing more trouble would be useless, so he directly led his people away.

They left feeling miserable this time, and He Huan no longer even felt like causing trouble for Lu Xun.

We're leaving too.

The Lin clan patriarch also had no intention of staying.

Actually, the auction was already nearing its end by this point.

On this trip, they didn't manage to snag any pills.

Mainly, the price of Saint-grade pills had been driven too high; unless a family happened to have someone urgently needing a breakthrough, or had hopes of winning the championship, other clans were unwilling to spend too much Dark Energy.

Although these major clans are wealthy, a clan this size requires an enormous amount of Dark Energy for cultivation.

The amount of Dark Energy they can readily produce is still relatively limited.

It's like in the old era, when many multimillionaires would find it hard to come up with a million in liquid funds.

Lin Qiang, what about the Saint-grade pills you mentioned?

Liu Mei, I'll definitely buy it for you next time.

Lin Qiang and Liu Mei were actually also in the Lin clan's entourage.

After they withdrew, the auction continued.

Although Xie Yuyan rejected the Lin clan patriarch's offer of fifteen million, this fourth-grade Spirit Quiet Pill still sold for a sky-high price of fifteen million.

This price was six to seven times the normal price.

This round, Lu Xun made a huge profit again.

However, such opportunities are rare; this time it just happened to hit the critical juncture of the secret realm examination.

If it weren't for the secret realm examination, this auction's price would at least be halved.

Miss Xie, could you please have the seller come out for a meeting? We're willing to offer two million Dark Energy, just for a chance to meet!

We'll offer three million!

When the auction ended, just like last time, someone again was willing to pay a high price to meet the seller.

The price was even higher than last time.

The reason is that this time a fourth-grade Saint-grade pill appeared!

The seller is clearly present; otherwise, how could they have refused the He clan twice in a row?

It's just that Lu Xun already had a plan, not preparing to appear now; these people are destined to be disappointed.

"Mr. Lu, after deducting handling fees and taxes, the total is seventy-three million Dark Energy, already transferred to your account; please check."

After the auction ended, Lu Xun again welcomed a great harvest.

Seventy-three million units of Dark Energy, equivalent to 73 cubic!

Adding what he previously obtained from the Jia Consortium and what remained unused from the last auction, Lu Xun's Dark Energy has surpassed one hundred cubic meters!

One hundred cubic meters of Dark Energy, that is one hundred million units of Dark Energy!

(One cubic meter of Dark Energy = one million units of Dark Energy)

(One unit of Dark Energy = one cubic centimeter of standard-density Dark Energy)

Now Lu Xun, a single person possessing Dark Energy, exceeds many great clans.

His old Lu family has become a wealthy household of one person.

The value of Saint-grade pills has been exploited to the utmost by Lu Xun.

"Comfortable."

In the blink of an eye, he possessed so much wealth, his mood was excellent.

The only thing worrying Lu Xun is that Fu Xue doesn't keep her word, running over to schedule many lessons for him.

Fortunately, Fu Xue did not come over the next two days.

【Murong Wan broke through the fifteenth layer of the Qi Sea...】

Murong Wan broke through the limit again.

"Qi Sea fifteenth layer..."

Murong Wan's Linglong Treasure Body truly lives up to being the supreme cultivation physique.

It's practically born for cultivation.

Who would have thought she could break through so many limits?

Lu Xun feels that the fifteenth layer is probably also her limit.

After all, Murong Wan hasn't used cheats.

In the following days, Lu Xun did not go out.

Fu Xue spent a lot of money buying him pills; he has to put on a show.

Thus breaking through to the Third Realm in martial arts seems natural.

That night,

Lu Xun was sleeping soundly when he suddenly felt a warm, soft body pressing against him.

"Having another spring dream?"

Lu Xun thought dazedly, already accustomed to it.

His hand unconsciously covered a certain spot, his palm transmitting a delicate sensation.

"Ah..."

A sharp scream instantly yanked him out of his sleep.

"Barbara, how did you turn human again?"

Lu Xun jerked his eyes open; the little white that had been curled up asleep on his belly had actually turned human again.

"Get your stinking hand off me!" Barbara gritted her teeth, cheeks flushed crimson, "And... that rod, don't press it against me!"

... You're still touching!!!

Barbara, furious, lunged to bite Lu Xun.

Lu Xun hastily released his hand; heavens, it was completely an unconscious move.

Who let Barbara have a fluffy cute tail growing on her butt?

Before Barbara could bite Lu Xun, she turned back into the little white, losing consciousness.

"What's going on?"

Lu Xun frowned.

Could it be... after he once undid a curse on her, the curse cramped?
