Chapter 159: This is my Dao Companion

~12 min read 2,243 words

As soon as this was said, many poor Gu cultivators in the crowd who were short of money revealed looks of disappointment, and those who knew their own limitations retreated outside the crowd.

But there were still a considerable number of people who did not leave. Standing at the door was also a way to watch the excitement. Even from a place slightly far from the door, one could hear the sound. How could it be so easy to make them leave?

Among them, a considerable number of people were there to witness the legendary Heaven-Grade spirit medicine, living wood. Even if their pockets were cleaner than their faces, they would still run thousands of miles without fear of hardship to witness the legendary divine object.

Although the living wood might appear very late, they also had to grab a good position here in advance, fearing that if they left, their good position would be occupied by others.

Seeing the fat man shouting in front of the auction house door, Long Xuan couldn't help but be slightly startled. This fat man looked very familiar. Wasn't he that Qian Duoduo who had met him a few times?

Wasn't he in the Far West Region? Why did he appear here too?

He was Qian Jinjin's confidant and her right-hand man. It was absolutely impossible for him to appear here easily. Could it be that Qian Jinjin also came here? Did she get promoted? Long Xuan suddenly startled, thinking suspiciously.

"Did the person in charge of the Qian Clan Merchant Association in the Far West Region change?" Long Xuan looked at Long Ziyan on the side and asked.

His news was blocked, but for such big news, Long Ziyan should still know.

Long Ziyan glanced at him and said: "Just as you thought, Qian Jinjin was promoted and left the Far West Region long ago. She is currently with her own team in the Western Lands branch of the Qian Clan Merchant Association."

"As far as I know, the Qian Clan Family Head's ten or so children are competing for the position of Family Head. The Qian Clan Family Head assigned his ten or so children to different places to manage family industries. Within the specified time, whoever earns the most wealth is the next Family Head."

"Perhaps because of the preference for boys over girls, Qian Jinjin was assigned to the Far West Region, the most barren place, which is more than ten times poorer than the places managed by other Family Head candidates."

"Logically speaking, she certainly could not win against other Family Head candidates no matter what, but there will always be various unexpected accidents in this world."

"Not long after, the profession of Insect Armor Master appeared for the first time in the Far West Region. She had unique vision. Before the Insect Armor Master gained momentum, she launched a massive attack on this new industry, and even reached her hand into other regions in advance."

"When the profession of Insect Armor Master became completely popular all over the world, she had already occupied most of the market."

"She seized the opportunity first and recruited the vast majority of geniuses with Insect Armor Master talent in advance. By the time others reacted, it was already very difficult to compete with her for the market."

"It was precisely because she seized this opportunity that she soared into the sky. Although she managed a poor place, she became the Family Head candidate with the fastest money-making speed."

"Because she earned massive wealth for the family, she was promoted and transferred here to become the person in charge of the Western Lands branch. Currently, she is the party with the greatest advantage in competing for the position of Family Head."

Hearing this, Long Xuan suddenly realized. So she was promoted because she seized the opportunity of the rise of the Insect Armor Master. The Far West Region was the outbreak place for Insect Armor Masters, so she would naturally occupy all the advantages. Speaking of which, she had to thank him for achieving such great success.

"Let's go. There are too many people. If we enter too slowly, I'm afraid we won't be able to grab a seat."

After satisfying his curiosity, Long Xuan was afraid that if he entered late, there would be no seats, so he stepped forward and walked forward.

Although Qian Duoduo set a threshold of paying an eight-million spirit stone deposit to enter the venue, there were still too many Marrow Cleansing Stage Gu cultivators with eight million in wealth. The people in front were squeezed together, rubbing shoulders.

Suddenly, seeing a salty pig hand in the crowd reaching toward Long Ziyan, someone intended to take advantage of the crowd to take advantage, Long Xuan was immediately furious. With quick eyes and fast hands, he grasped that salty pig hand and squeezed it lightly, and a pig-like scream sounded in the crowd.

"Presumptuous, I haven't touched enough yet. Is it something you want to touch just because you want to?"

Ignoring the lecherous man who was already kneeling on the ground begging for mercy in pain, Long Xuan grabbed Long Ziyan's arm and walked forward.

Long Ziyan glared at him fiercely, but still followed him and walked forward.

This time Long Xuan learned his lesson. Fearing that Long Ziyan would be squeezed by the crowd, he sent out all his clones to separate the crowd. Those clones were like bodyguards protecting a star, squeezing out a large space for the two to move forward.

Not long after, he walked to the door of the auction house and paid sixteen million spirit stones straightforwardly, paying for Long Ziyan's share as well.

"This is my Dao companion, we are together. Arrange a private room for me, I have heavy treasures to auction." Long Xuan immediately waved to Qian Duoduo and said.

In the auction house, there is usually a rule that if you consign particularly valuable treasures in the auction house, the owner will be arranged into a private room on the second floor.

However, not all owners are qualified to be arranged into a private room. Only if the things auctioned are among the most valuable treasures in this auction will they enjoy this treatment.

If it were himself, Long Xuan would just squeeze with the people below, but now that Long Ziyan is by his side, thinking of the scene that just happened, he didn't want Long Ziyan to squeeze with too many people.

Moreover, this auction has no high-level Gu cultivators participating, so he can boldly bid for more treasures. He needs a certain amount of spirit stones, so Long Xuan is prepared to take out some things to auction in exchange for some spirit stones, so as not to have enough spirit stones on him later.

Qian Duoduo finally noticed this familiar face. Of course, he also knew Long Ziyan, the famous genius in the Far West Region.

Seeing that Long Xuan actually called her his Dao companion, and Long Ziyan didn't refute it, he was shocked. What kind of virtue and ability does this Long Xuan have to be able to win the heart of such a heaven-favored girl? He was completely shocked.

Long Ziyan actually has a dual cultivation Dao companion? This is definitely a huge piece of news in the Far West Region, which will make people discuss it for a long time.

"What do you have to auction? Let's say it first, there is only one last private room left. The overall quality of the treasures in this auction far exceeds the past. Only if the value of the treasures is very high will there be a chance to enter the private room."

Qian Duoduo walked over, scanned the two faces back and forth several times, and finally said.

"What good treasures can be said here? Let's enter the private room first." Since they were acquaintances, Long Xuan spoke much more casually.

"That's true." Qian Duoduo nodded. Perhaps out of trust in acquaintances, he really took the two into the last private room, Room Five.

"What good things can you take out now? The standard requirements for our auction treasures are very high. However, I believe that even if you can't take out treasures that meet the requirements, the one next to you can still take them out."

Qian Duoduo glanced at Long Ziyan beside Long Xuan. Perhaps he could bring the two to the last private room also because of Long Ziyan's face, believing in her wealth.

If asked what to take out, Long Xuan was really a little struggling at this time. He prepared to auction things this time just to enter the private room. It was a decision made on the spur of the moment, and he really hadn't thought about what to auction.

There were really too many things on him that were qualified to enter the private room. Any one of them taken out would be a finale auction item.

However, those things obviously couldn't be taken out easily. The things taken out couldn't be too expensive or too cheap, so it was really hard to choose.

"I don't know what the minimum standard for entering the private room in your auction is this time, but I think the treasure that restores spiritual power for the first time in the Marrow Cleansing Stage should be enough. These were all obtained by accident. You identify them."

After thinking about it, Long Xuan took out barrels of Spirit Recovery Wine and placed them on the ground. Of course, it was ordinary wine that had not been distilled. A full thirty barrels were placed on the ground by him.

His scale of ice bees had already exceeded ten thousand, and the honey produced was already so much that he couldn't finish it, and the Spirit Recovery Wine brewed was also so much that he couldn't drink it at all.

Taking this opportunity to sell the Spirit Recovery Wine that occupied space was also not bad.

Don't underestimate this Spirit Recovery Wine. Although it is far from enough to be a finale auction item, among all the auction items, it can definitely rank in the upper-middle class. It belongs to the category of "not enough to be the best, but better than the worst," and is enough to be frantically snatched by everyone who comes to participate in the auction.

In battle, the auxiliary medicine that helps Gu cultivators the most is healing medicine, and the second is Spirit Recovery medicine. Some people even think that Spirit Recovery medicine is more important than healing medicine.

Long Xuan was confident that his Spirit Recovery Wine could rank first among all spiritual power recovery medicines in the Marrow Cleansing Stage. How could his Spirit Recovery Wine not be popular?

Hearing Long Xuan's words, Qian Duoduo was slightly startled. Ranking first among spiritual power recovery medicines in the Marrow Cleansing Stage, what a big tone.

If his wine really had the exaggerated effect he said, then he was absolutely qualified to stay in this private room.

With a suspicious gaze, Qian Duoduo opened one of the wine barrels. Immediately, the rich wine fragrance filled the whole room. He couldn't help but sniff his nose, revealing a look of shock.

As a businessman, he had tasted countless good wines, but this was the first time he had seen spirit wine whose fragrance could be so rich. He finally put away his contempt.

Qian Duoduo looked into the wine barrel with a solemn gaze and found that the wine in the wine barrel was clear to the bottom, without any impurities. This was the first time he had seen such clear wine. The wine he had seen before, no matter how high the quality, was turbid. When had he ever seen such transparent wine? He had broadened his horizons.

Qian Duoduo raised his head and looked at Long Xuan in surprise. He finally couldn't help but take out a wine glass from his storage bag, scooped up half a glass of wine, and then drank it in one gulp.

After the wine went down his stomach, his eyes immediately lit up. As an excellent businessman, he naturally had the ability to identify treasures, and his ability to taste wine was naturally not weak. Just by tasting half a glass, he knew that what Long Xuan said was not false. This kind of wine claimed to have the first Spirit Recovery effect in the Marrow Cleansing Stage, which was definitely not an exaggeration.

The Spirit Recovery effect of this kind of wine was simply far, far stronger than the Spirit Recovery Pill.

The most critical thing was that taking the Spirit Recovery Pill required a certain amount of time to refine, while the wine melted as soon as it entered the mouth and did not require refining time. Comparing the two, the Spirit Recovery Wine was naturally far, far stronger than the Spirit Recovery Pill.

Once this kind of wine appeared at the auction, it would be difficult not to cause a sensation.

According to the past, this kind of wine would be enough to become a finale auction item.

However, this auction was simply a battle between gods. Such divine wine was far from reaching the level of a finale auction item, which made him secretly say it was a pity.
