When have they ever face such humiliation in their lifetime? This was just like slapping their face in front of everyone.
"Are you sure about your decision? You have to know that if you continue to behave this way, you will offend my Silver Moon Sect!"
Grand Elder of the Silver Moon Sect said coldly once again.
"So what if I offend the Silver Moon Sect? Do you think that your Silver Moon Sect is colossal of the Azure Sky Continent?"
Ye Xiao once again shot an arrow that directly hit the heart of the Grand Elder Ma Yafei.
Grand Elder stood up from his seat in a fit of rage and was about to curse at Ye Xiao when Zhou Yan held him back.
"Master let's bid first. We will see him after he comes out from the auction house." Zhou Yan said to his master.
"Humph!"
Grand Elder snorted and returned to his seat. Zhou Yan continued his bid.
"2100 gold coins"
"2200 gold coins"
Ye Xiao followed behind him.
"You?"
"Very well!"
"2500 gold coins"
This time Ye Xiao did not continued bidding. Seeing that the other parted did not bid, Zhang Qing said, "If there is no one who will bid further, then the first batch of 10 spirit stones will belong to the Grand Elder of Silver Moon Sect."
"Congratulations, Grand Elder Ma Yafei for obtaining these spirit stones."
"Let us continue with our second batch of spirit stones." Zhang Qing said this. People present here continued to bid.
The second batch of spirit stones was bought by the power of Lin Star City in 2700 gold coins.
The third batch was again bought by Grand Elder Ma Yafei of the Silver Moon Sect in 2900 gold coins.
The fourth batch was bought by a middle-aged man in 3000 gold coins. He does not belong to any power, he was a rogue cultivator.
The fifth and sixth batch was sold in 3200 gold coins each.
Seventh, Eighth, and Ninth batches of spirit stones were sold for 3500 gold coins, 3700 gold coins, and 3800 gold coins each.
And lastly, the tenth batch of spirit stones was once again bought by the Grand Elder Ma Yafei of the Silver Moon Sect in 4000 gold coins.
Last nine batches of spirit stones, all sold for more gold coins than the last one, one by one. In which 3 batches of spirit stones were taken away by the Grand Elder of the Silver Moon Sect. And the rest were sold to other powerhouses.
In total, Ye Xiao earned 32,500 gold coins. By the sudden wealth, he became so excited that he started laughing in his room.
After all the batches of low-grade spirit stones were sold, the auction came to end.
After the auction, Ye Xiao followed the path and came to a counter. He then gave the middle-aged man his token which was the proof of him buying the Void Fire Fruit.
Just as the middle-aged man was about to give him the Void Fire Fruit, manager Zhang Lan comes. Seeing manager Zhang Lan coming, That middle-aged man greeted him.
"Give our guest the thing he bought." Manager Zhang Lan nodded and said to the middle man.
"Yes, manager."
"Here is the Void Fire Fruit, it is a total of 3000 gold coins."
"I will see from here, you go," manager Zhang Lan said to the middle-aged man and turns to look at Ye Xiao.
"Hehe, Guest here is a total of 26,250 gold coins. After cutting the 10% interest that the auction takes and 3000 gold coins that you bought Void Fire Fruit with." Zhang Lan said to Ye Xiao while giving him a bag full of gold coins.
Ye Xiao took the bag and counted it before putting it away on the first floor of Nine Story Pagoda.
Spatial ring?
Zhang Lan's eyes lit up.
"What kind of fortuitous encounter does he come across with to gain so many good things." Zhang Lan thought.
"May I know the Guest's name" Zhang Lan smiled and asked.
"Ye Xiao"
Ye Xiao had already seen through Zhang Lan's eyes. There was greed in them. He does not want to stay here anymore so he turned around and walked out of the auction house with large strides.
"I should have to hide my identity and appearance when I was coming here. The saying is really true 'Wealth brings disaster!'. I have to be more careful in the future when I am going to do something."
Ye Xiao walked out from the auction house and just as he was about to go to his inn, his gaze suddenly landed on his former sect members.
One was Zhou Yan and the other was Zhou Yan's master, Grand Elder of the Silver Moon Sect, Ma Yafei.
"Enemies really do cross their paths again and again. If that Ma Yafei was not present here, I would have killed this Zhou Yan here."
"Ah!, the first stage of Qi Condensation Realm. Grand Elder really took good care of Zhou Yan." Ye Xiao size up Zhou Yan and found out that he actually break through to the Qi Condensation Realm.
Ye Xiao was surprised seeing this. He saw that they were waiting for someone. He suddenly thinks of that moment when he was making fun of this pair of master and disciple.
Thinking this he could not help but feel a lingering fear.
"I have to hurry up and increase my strength!", Ye Xiao chose the other way and get back to the inn. After arriving in his room, he closed the door and started his meditation.
Sometime later when his condition was stabilised, he took out Void Fire Fruit and swallowed it.
"I hope it can help me breakthrough to Qi Condensation Realm. When that happens, I can ensure my safety even more as well as took a step further in taking my revenge on Silver Moon Sect."
"And I also have to go to the Imperial City for registering in the competition of five great sects. Only twenty days are left before the registration ends."
Just when the Void Fire Fruit enters his stomach, a sudden surge of energy comes out from it and enters every pore of his body.
