Chapter 1665 - 1764: The Cleverness

Chapter 1665: Chapter 1764: The Cleverness

The sound dropped, and the bustling, noisy auction hall quieted down, as the people whispering searched for a spot near the auction table.

Qing Lian said, "I believe many friends know me. I am the master of the auction. In a short time, I will personally auction the Mingming Tianyi Grass. I know you are all powerful people; they call the wind and summon the rain. Just don’t mess up the rules. It’s important to know, Lanwan City is directly under the control of the Sword Palace, and the auction is also directly controlled by the Sword Palace. Will you offend our Sword Palace?"

The people below nodded, liking the flattery. The Sword Palace is the strongest nation next to the Five Countries. Now among the five troops, four are either dead or mostly defeated. Only one of the clans of the Huangfu Ancient People remains, and they are not much more skilled than the Sword Pavilion. Today, the land is boundless, and few dare to provoke the Sword Palace. This is also the cleverness of choosing Lanwan City for the auction of the Mingming Tianyi Grass.

However, the grass is very precious now. No one can guarantee anyone would take the risk. The strength of these people is not for fun. Qing Lian had better give a gentle warning first.

"President Qing Lian, don’t delay. Bring the Heavenly Grass from the underworld for bidding now." A scar-faced man shouted directly. This person obviously couldn’t be bothered with pleasantries. The people around him didn’t dare to speak.

"Master Qiu Luo, no need to hurry." Qing Lian looked at the scarred face with a smile and pursed her seductive red lips. It seemed something suddenly jumped in the faint sound. Speaking of it, there was a strange Da Huo. If the mind wasn’t strong, it seemed bewitched. Unconsciously, it influenced primordial emotions. I fear if we talk about the price or conditions, we will gain nothing. It seems Qing Lian can become the master of such a large auction not just by a woman’s amazing appearance.

While speaking, Qing Lian stood on the high platform. She reached out and knocked on a bronze bell’s side. Suddenly. The hall rang out. Subsequently, a beautiful maid escorted by four cultivators of the True Essence Scripture walked out respectfully with a silver tray, on which lay a tightly closed jade box. When the jade box opened, a brown fluorescence of another grass appeared in front of everyone, exuding a strong aura, shocking the entire hall.

"This is the legendary Nightfall Grass!" Many people tried their best to widen their eyes, not wanting to miss a moment.

"Folks," Qing Lian smiled, "this is the grass of Heaven. Originally, these treasures weren’t that precious, but now we all know the situation. Twenty kinds of plants at once, crafted by Huangfu Ancient People. If you want to take them away, you will get considerable returns from the Huangfu Ancient People. As the saying goes, today, the auction house will only auction this treasure, and the starting price is the Top Ten Divine Skills. These ten Divine Skills include fencing, boxing, hand techniques, defense, body, and spirit, all of which are rare. Based on this, let’s start bidding."

"What! Damn, who has so many high-level skills?" Suddenly a voice roared. For a moment, the entire auction house was noisy. Either for something else or for the auction price of this dark and beautiful grass. Ten Divine Skills, ordinary experts, even Holy Land forces don’t have so many high-level techniques, and even local forces might not have that many. Perhaps only ancient clans of top forces like Sword Pavilion and Huangfu have so many high skills. But how many such forces are there across this vast territory?

What left people dumbfounded was that these ten skills also require different types, especially spiritual and body powers, which are truly scarce.

This is just the starting price, but many people think no one can afford it.

"President Qing Lian, this is too hard for you. Even if you bring these twenty Heaven and Earth Grass to Huangfu Ancient People, I’m afraid Huangfu Ancient People won’t give you more than this." Jijing Level 9 Expert shouted loudly.

"That is, taking a big risk we relay the risk to him, we are still so magnanimous."

Faced with questions and noise from several people below, Qing Lian still smiled. Many erupted in anger; she just futilely pressed her hand, lowering her voice." You guys, this base price is really shocking. As you know, we only handle the auction, the price is set by the treasure’s owner. I’m really sorry about this. I think it’s best to cooperate."

As Qing Lian spoke, suddenly everyone was discussing, but sighing and shaking their heads filled the hall.

At this moment, Baili Yue suddenly stood up, walked onto the stage with graceful steps, looking at the mysterious and glowing Nether River Heavenly Grass. He smiled and said, "The value of twenty Nether River Heavenly Grass far exceeds ten Divine Skills, only if the Nether River Heavenly Grass is real. I don’t know when the auction house will use fakes to auction everything?"

"Qing Lian, the Heavenly Destiny Secret Grass is truly fake. Although I haven’t seen it, this thing’s aura is absolutely wrong. More importantly, its most important feature is to protect people’s souls. It can’t imitate soul fluctuations." At this time, Qin Feng could only communicate through spirit.

Upon hearing this, Qing Lian’s beautiful face underwent earth-shaking changes, yet she did not doubt Qin Feng’s warning. She immediately raised her voice and said, "Everyone be quiet."

The scene finally calmed down, but everyone stared at Qing Lian, waiting for her explanation.

Qing Lian slightly leaned back and said: "Sorry. I just received definite news. These dark and holy grasses are indeed fake. The appraiser who examined them before the store auction couldn’t identify true or false. This is our negligence."

"What does this mean? Apologize when someone sees through it? If no one can see through, then we exchange ten precious Divine Skills for a pair of fake goods, wouldn’t we lose too much? Is this what you do at the auction house?" Suddenly, a scar called Qiu Luo yelled.

"Master Qiu Luo," Qing Lian coldly said, "The prestige of my auction is priceless. As the auctioneer dares to play tricks like this, even if he never shows his true face, we must find him and make him pay. Rest assured."

"Sorry, everyone." At this time, a low voice sounded. Then, in the front row of the auction house, a middle-aged practitioner from Jijing stood up. The middle-aged man had always been low-key, not speaking. When he stood up, people realized his expression was also dull. No one knew him." I am the master of Ming Tianyi Grass; it’s just Ming Tianyi Grass is too important, with too high a price. If someone directly comes to grab it, I can’t stop them. So I must proceed carefully. Please forgive me."

While speaking, the unidentified man glanced deeply at Baili Yue." I just don’t want to see those who experienced these goods, but I admire them. Now, to express sincerity, I will take it out and let this gentleman identify again."

Twenty Nether River plants flew out of a human’s Space Ring. The Nether River plant looked exactly same like before, but its spirit was so strong, terrifying. More importantly, the Nether River plant didn’t rely on any external force. It floated in mid-air, with a hint of dawn. Once people approached it, their soul felt calm.

"This time it’s real." Baili Yue pursed his lips and directly said, "Since it’s really here, I don’t need to waste time. My husband wants this black and holy grass."

"Husband? To have such a man in such a beautiful turn! It’s really regrettable, damn, I’m really very sad!"

"Yes!"

"Your husband is an onion. Does he want it? I said I want it!"

Suddenly, there was a lot of noise from below. Qiu Luo’s voice was the loudest, glaring at Qin Feng. When many people sneaked peeks at Baili Yue’s beauty, they noticed the person who made Baili Yue very intimate. It was not difficult to guess this handsome boy was this beautiful girl’s husband.
