However, after listening to what Luo Qianyu had said, Su Yu felt something was off. He had never even entered the ruins of the Golden Jade Fairy Gate, let alone stay near them.
Yet the two out of the three treasures from the ruins of the Golden Jade Fairy Gate ended up in his hands.
Miraculous.
“I don’t have enough strength. I swear I’ve never gone to the ruins of the Golden Jade Fairy Gate—not even to Ba Yao Ridge.” Su Yu absently made up his mind. If anyone found this out, he could be in real danger.
After the banquet, which proved quite informative for Su Yu, he sent off Su Zhi and Luo Qianyu late into the night.
The next morning.
It was a gloomy day. Su Yu, Yu Baishan, Yu Baihe, Yu Ke’er, and Yu Qianqing gathered in a private room on the second floor of the auction house. The auction house was located in the central area of Inner Market in Big Moon Block Market and belonged to Big Moon Palace. It had three floors in total.
In the boxes on the third floor sat the old creatures of the Core Formation and Pseudo Core Formation realms.
Yu Baishan, a cultivator at the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment realm, had to stay on the second floor.
Meanwhile, the road body puppet, disguised as an old Daoist, had similarly acquired a room on the second floor of the auction house.
About half an hour later.
The auction floor on the first floor was close to full capacity, even though entry to the auction house required proof of owning at least a thousand low-grade Spirit Stones.
Otherwise, everyone in the Big Moon Black Market would have flooded in. “Hee hee hee, welcome friends of Dao to participate in the Big Moon Palace’s auction. I, the Liquor Master, will be your host for today’s auction.” With a sudden flash of red light, a woman in a captivating red gown appeared on the auction stage.
Her appearance stunned many in the audience, including some on the third floor. Everyone was shocked into silence.
At that moment, the entire auction house fell silent.
In his box, Su Yu was taken aback at the sight of the woman. Liquor Master—a woman???
The information he had received from Heaven Tomb didn’t mention the Liquor Master being a female cultivator.
Based on her name and the descriptions of her personality, Su Yu had assumed the Core Formation powerholder of the Big Moon Black Market of the Big Moon Palace was a man—err, an old man.
The Liquor Master was truly as impulsive as described. After a quick greeting, she gestured for the first auction item to be presented.
“We have a high-grade Magic Artifact, a broken sword named Golden Rainbow Furious Flame. I personally feel it doesn’t deserve the ‘Furious Flame’ title.
Anyone interested? The starting bid is two thousand low-grade Spirit Stones.
Each price increase—whatever, just offer what you want.”
The original auctioneer was almost in tears: “Grandma, are you sure this is an auction? You’re shattering our rice bowls.”
The rest of the crowd:
They examined the high-grade Magic Artifact flying sword carefully. It was sharp and undamaged, apparently brand new.
This was called a broken sword—
A moment later, scattered bidding noises began to emerge from the first floor. Slowly, the atmosphere grew enthusiastic as the bidding continued.
Ultimately, the high-grade Magic Artifact was bought by someone on the second floor for, three thousand three hundred low-grade Spirit Stones.
“Next up, a set of ten rank two middle-grade talismans of mediocre quality. The starting bid is five thousand low-grade Spirit Stones. Who wants it?” The striking woman in the red skirt introduced.
A broken sword Magic Artifact.
Mediocre rank two middle-grade talismans.
Suppressing his urge to laugh, Su Yu thought to himself: her personality is indeed unique.
This was the first time he had witnessed such an auction.
After some time, the cultivators began to bid more fiercely. Many male cultivators, completely smitten by the figure on stage, seemed eager to show off and attract the Liquor Master’s attention.
Fortunately, these were just your average cultivators on the first floor, so they didn’t have much influence.
In the afternoon.
Finally, Su Yu saw the first auction item that caught his interest: a live Rank Two Top-grade Eight-Armed Blade Mantis!
“This is a cute little guy, a Rank Two Top-grade Eight-Armed Blade Mantis. You can’t find one like this anywhere outside, it was captured from the ruins of the Golden Jade Fairy Gate. Its strength is roughly equal to the eight layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm.”
“The starting bid is five thousand low-grade Spirit Stones, feel free to raise the price. If you’re interested, you can bid!”
Looking at the Eight-Armed Blade Mantis being brought on stage, Liquor Master chuckled lightly. Her red lips were like blazing fire, a single sentence enough to ignite the audience.
A live Rank Two Top-grade demonic beast appearing in an auction was a first!
But this wasn’t a Beast Tamed, so it was useless for normal cultivators to bid for it.
Thus, after the initial uproar, there were only a few bids.
“Five thousand five hundred.’
“Six thousand.”
“Seven thousand.”
Yu Baishan, the patriarch of the Yu family, bid a few times, but gave up after reaching ten thousand Spirit Stones.
With a price higher than this, he would rather go into the ruins of the Golden Jade Fairy Gate and search for another Beast Tamed that suits him.
Eventually, the road body puppet on the second floor secured the live Rank Two Top-grade Eight-Armed Blade Mantis for eleven thousand low-grade Spirit Stones.
Next came some materials from the Eight-Armed Blade Mantis and other Rank Two top-grade beasts, which the road body puppet bought for just under five thousand Spirit Stones.
Successive bids from the road body puppet drew countless eyes.
As the road body puppet spent another five thousand low-grade Spirit Stones to buy the Light Shadow Stone, it found itself under surveillance of multiple strong presences.
Wearing a mask and a cloak, the road body puppet was unfazed by the scrutiny. It only chuckled lightly.
Most of these people were of no concern. Only a few reached the late stage of Foundation Establishment.
Nonchalantly, it left its room to collect the auction items, spending nearly thirty-thousand low-grade Spirit Stones in total..
