Chapter 179: Could You Please Not Be So Rigid About Gender?

"Then I shall also bid 250,000 membership points!"

Beside Xiao Yan, Yao Lao spoke up with a calm expression.

As the abrupt words were spoken, the large gourmet shop suddenly fell into silence.

Countless gazes turned toward Yao Lao, even Xiao Yan’s included.

"Ahem, a friendly reminder: you can use gold for the auction."

Seeing the people in the shop actually taking out their membership points, Su Mu couldn't help but remind them.

The gourmet shop had only just finished upgrading yesterday and opened the membership level system.

He hadn't expected that in just one day, this group of people would have topped up hundreds of thousands of membership points.

However, this was also a good thing.

According to the system's revenue split, if membership points were spent, Su Mu would receive double the amount in gold.

Su Mu was still guaranteed a profit without any risk.

However, thinking of the upcoming Bamboo Leaf Green wine, which had to be auctioned with membership points,

in order to maximize his profits, Su Mu had to give them a reminder.

If they handed over their gold now and used membership points later, he could fleece them twice.

Otherwise, if they used up their membership points now and the Bamboo Leaf Green wine didn't sell for a high price later, Su Mu would lose out.

But Su Mu's inner thoughts were naturally unknown to everyone.

Seeing Su Mu give such a reminder, everyone’s expressions shifted.

The Immortal had given a reminder, actually telling them to use gold!

What did this mean? It was telling them that membership points were of great use and should not be used recklessly!

In an instant, Lin Dong and Yao Lao also realized this.

And just as everyone was frowning, Stark on the other side had eyes shining with light.

"Ahem, Brother Lin Dong, I am willing to spend 400,000 taels of gold to exchange for 200,000 of your membership points!"

Coughing lightly, Stark’s gaze was fixed on Lin Dong.

This was a great opportunity.

Gold was devalued inside the gourmet shop.

But membership points were not.

Taking advantage of this moment to exchange a large amount of gold for membership points was the right path.

And as Stark’s words were spoken, the others also realized what was happening.

But just realizing it was of no use at all!

They had neither membership points nor gold.

They couldn't do anything!

Thinking of this, Wang Dadong, Ning Caichen, Rock Lee, and the others looked at each other and couldn't help but shed silent tears.

Miserable, too miserable!

And just as Stark’s words fell, Ying Zheng’s gaze also turned toward Yao Lao.

"I am willing to offer 600,000 taels of gold to exchange for 200,000 membership points!"

The terrifying bid was announced again, and for a moment, everyone witnessed the power of the wealthy once more.

Even Lin Dong, who possessed a million membership points, was secretly shocked.

The wealthy in this gourmet shop were just too exaggerated!

Standing at the front, Su Mu watched this group of people openly engaging in arbitrage right in front of him and immediately smiled.

Yes, Su Mu smiled happily.

It was good that they were exchanging; the more they exchanged, the higher the price of the final cup would be.

That way, he, Su Mu, could earn even more.

They could exchange as much as they wanted; they just had to act as if he didn't exist!

At this moment in the gourmet shop, Lin Dong and Yao Lao looked at each other, both very interested in the Black Rice Wine.

However, Xiao Yan, who was at the side, quietly whispered into Yao Lao’s ear.

Hearing that the little fellow in front of him actually possessed a million membership points, Yao Lao’s expression changed slightly.

"Young friend has impressive financial resources; I yield it to you!"

Although his own wealth was not insignificant, Yao Lao did not want to force a confrontation at this time.

After all, there was still the Bamboo Leaf Green wine later, and its effects were likely even more terrifying than the Black Rice Wine.

Having tasted the Braised Rabbit Head, a dish bought with membership points, Yao Lao was more inclined toward the Bamboo Leaf Green wine.

And with Yao Lao’s withdrawal, Lin Dong exchanged 200,000 taels of gold from Stark and shouted his bid directly.

Seeing Lin Dong’s stance, Zhang Sanfeng, Yue Buqun, Abbot Xuan Ci, and the others hesitated and then gave up.

Continue bidding?

Shout for what, the other party still has hundreds of thousands of member points on them.

The other party still had hundreds of thousands of membership points; how could they compete with him!

Seeing everyone give up, Su Mu’s gaze showed a hint of regret, but he still announced the result.

At the side, Cha Cha, seeing the auction end, delivered the three cups of Black Rice Wine to Tang San, Jiang Yuyan, and Lin Dong.

Having just finished the auction, Su Mu was in no rush to start the next one.

Tang San, having received the Black Rice Wine, looked at it, and without further hesitation, downed it in one gulp.

As it entered his mouth, the sweetness of the glutinous rice went straight to his lungs and bowels.

A wave of cool energy pulsed, traveling along the soul power within Tang San’s body until it reached his martial soul origin.

"Boom!"

In an instant, Tang San’s vision went black, and the next second, amidst shifting stars, he arrived in a vast starry sky.

Within the starry sky, countless deities were scattered about; Tang San looked around, and above his head, his Blue Silver Grass martial soul and Clear Sky Hammer martial soul were both floating.

"Boom!"

The starry sky roared, and streams of divine power poured into his martial souls; a strange, comfortable sensation emerged within Tang San’s body.

Closing his eyes slightly, bathed in divine light, Tang San felt as if he had become a deity himself.

"Boom!"

He did not know how long it lasted, but with a roar in his ears, Tang San regained his senses.

The martial souls above his head had now transformed into divine martial souls.

His internal soul power cultivation had also broken through to the Title Douluo realm.

Even Tang San’s body had transformed into a divine body.

Feeling these changes, Tang San was stunned and dumbfounded.

This Black Rice Wine was simply too terrifying.

Was this what Stark and Ying Zheng had experienced?

"Boom!"

The starry sky shattered, and the divine light merged entirely into Tang San’s body.

By the time Tang San opened his eyes again, he had returned to the gourmet shop.

But at this moment, Tang San seemed to have been reborn.

Dugu Bo, watching Tang San’s transformation from the side, was secretly shocked.

And just as everyone was envying Tang San and Jiang Yuyan for being able to begin cultivating immortality,

Lin Dong, who had also received the Black Rice Wine, pushed it toward Ling Qingzhu.

"Here, I saw you eyeing this earlier!"

"You... did you bid for this just for me?"

Hearing Ling Qingzhu’s words, Lin Dong nodded silently.

In an instant, these words reached everyone’s ears, leaving them all stunned.

Even Tang San, Stark, and Ying Zheng were dumbfounded.

You use this stuff to flirt with a girl?

That is too extravagant!

Zhang Sanfeng, Yue Buqun, Abbot Xuan Ci, and the others were even more thoroughly envious.

Young Master Lin, could you please not be so rigid about gender?

Do you see any chance for them?
