Duanmu Xi slightly frowned.

She didn’t expect that there were such sadistic perverts in ancient times.

Duanmu Xi looked at the male elf with a mischievous look.

The pretty face was expressionless and unpredictably cold. Yet, the green eyes had too many mixed feelings, including unyielding, reluctance and fearlessness.

Snow?

Duanmu Xi furrowed her eyebrows. They were two pairs of distinctive eyes but she caught sight of Snow’s figure in the green eyes.

“14 white crystals…”

“20 white crystals.”

Huamei’er was about to strike the hammer when she was interrupted by a cold female voice.

20 white crystals?

After being surprised, Huamei’er put down the hammer and smiled in the direction of VIP Room 7 on the third floor.

“20 white crystals from VIP Room 7. Any more bids?”

The woman in VIP Room 7 really knew how to surprise people. She always made a bid every time Huamei’er was about to strike the hammer, and her bid was always astonishingly high.

VIP Room 7 again!

Everyone gasped in admiration.

The man in red in VIP Room 6 heard the familiar voice again and finally thought of the person on Sparrow Slaying Platform three years ago.

It was her. She still fancied handsome men as before. Three years ago, she got on Sparrow Slaying Platform for a handsome man; three years later, she was ready to spend such a big sum for another handsome man.

He really wanted to know what she would do after meeting him.

Feng Xifan in VIP Room 1 was a bit surprised to hear Duanmu Xi bid for the elf too. He didn’t expect that beautiful woman also fancied handsome men.

Somehow, he felt a bit jealous and dejected. Even when his fiancee Chu Lian’er bid for the elf, he didn’t feel this way.

Xue Jinshuo’s eyes glistened with fierceness.

Who on earth was the girl in VIP Room 7? How dared she set against the Xue Family?

“20 white crystals going once.”

“21 white crystals.”

“21 white crystals from VIP Room 4…”

Before Huamei’er finished chanting the bid, the cold female voice came again.

“30 white crystals.”

The crowd was so speechless.

Why did she have to stimulate them like this?

Others increased the white crystals one by one while she increased in tens.

The crowd couldn’t help guessing how rich she was.

“30 white crystals from VIP Room 7. Any more bids?”

Xue Jinshuo felt a sense of incapability. He also wanted to increase the white crystals in tens but he couldn’t afford that.

The whole Xue Family only had tens of white crystals in total. He couldn’t spend all the family assets on such a handsome man.

However, even if he couldn’t buy the elf, it didn’t mean he couldn’t get the elf. As long as he thought of hovering over the handsome man, he felt a sensation.

“30 white crystals going once.”

“30 white crystals going twice.”

“30 white crystals, sold.”

As Huamei’er struck the hammer, the male elf would belong to Duanmu Xi.

Duanmu Xi’s lips curved into a dismissive sneer.

She had a lot of crystals.

Putting aside the crystals given by Dragon King, only the crystals given by her parents and master were enough for her to squander.

Moreover, as a refining pharmacist, she could earn as many crystals as she wanted.

“The next auction item is the 30th item, aka, the last treasure for today.”

Huamei’er took the little box passed by the maid.

“Auspicious Cloud Pill. Please take a look at this.”

Huamei’er opened the box and only saw a light yellow round pill inside.

“Gosh! It is an Auspicious Cloud Pill.”

“I didn’t expect that the last treasure for today should be Auspicious Cloud Pill.”

“Myriad Treasure Pavilion is so impressive. It can even get the Auspicious Cloud Pill.”

“Haha… I’m so glad that I came to Myriad Treasure Pavilion today.”

The man in red in VIP Room 6 instantly disappeared in the room upon seeing the last auction item.

He thought there would be some treasure in the auction hall but all the auction items turned out to be rubbish. It was such a waste of time.

“Auspicious Cloud Pill, the dark-grade level-three elixir. No matter what grade you are at, as long as you take the Auspicious Cloud Pill, you will be leveled up to a Mysterious Emperor or Spiritual Emperor. If you want to get strong, you can’t miss the opportunity. Now, it is time to start bidding for Auspicious Cloud Pill. The starting price is 80 black crystals. Here it goes.”

“90 black crystals.”

“100 black crystals.”

“A white crystal.”



All the people were bidding frantically.

Duanmu Xi slightly narrowed her purple eyes.

She had come across the Auspicious Cloud Pill in her master’s ancient books. One could really get leveled up to a Mysterious Emperor or a Spiritual Emperor after taking the pill.

However, he must pay a price for what he gained. After taking the pill and being promoted to the ranking of Emperor, he could only stay in that ranking without any opportunity of promotion.

Ordinary masters wouldn’t take it but generally, the people on the Hantian Continent got promoted slowly. Most of them couldn’t reach the ranking of Emperor even after striving for a lifetime. Then, the Auspicious Cloud Pill would be the only opportunity for them to grow strong. No wonder these people would struggle to get it.

The bidding price downstairs was increasing nonstop but Duanmu Xi was not interested at all. If she had got the things she bought, she would have left with Phoenix Five.

In the end, the Auspicious Cloud Pill was bought by Xue Jinshuo, the young master of the Xue Family at the price of 25 white crystals.

It was believed that the Auspicious Cloud Pill would be sold to the client in VIP Room 7. However, the mysterious girl in that room didn’t even make a bid, which caused the final bidding price of Auspicious Cloud Pill to be even lower than that of the male elf.

All the auction items were sold. Feng Xifan, the young master of Myriad Treasure Pavilion stepped onto the stage and delivered a speech.

“Thank you for attending the auction this time. I’m glad that all the auction items have been sold. Hereby, I officially announce that the auction has come to a successful close. Your purchased items will be delivered to you. Please wait patiently.”

The auction was over. What the people talked about most was not the treasures of Myriad Treasure Pavilion but the mysterious girl in VIP Room 7.

Someone said that she was foolish, who only bought the things that could be watched but not used. Some said that she was rich enough to make a bid of tens of white crystals. Some called her a lecher who would offend the nobles and spend a large sum of money.

When Duanmu Xi got impatient with waiting for too long, someone knocked on the door.

It was the maid that Feng Xifan brought with him. She brought the things for Duanmu Xi. A man wearing a black cloak was following behind them. It seemed that he must be the male elf.

Feng Xifan was slightly in a trance to see Duanmu Xi again. He tried his best to constrain himself and not to be lost in the enchanting purple eyes.

“Miss, these are the items you bought.”

Feng Xifan waved his hand and the maid came to Duanmu Xi with the tray.

Duanmu Xi took a look at the tray and saw the prescription of Beauty Locking Pill and the big mysterious egg.

“Miss, please take your golden card. All the crystals you’ve got from the auction have been transmitted to this card. It can be used anyplace on the Hantian Continent. Of course, if you want to take out the crystals in the golden card, you can go to any auction of Myriad Treasure Pavilion or any bank on the Hantian Continent.”

Feng Xifan passed a golden card to Duanmu Xi.

“Your elixirs are sold for eight black crystals and 80 purple crystals. And the three things you bought cost 40 white crystals and three black crystals. Three black crystals have been deducted from the golden card so you need to pay 40 white crystals in total.”

With a flick of sleeves, Duanmu Xi put the two things and the golden card on the tray into her crystal ball and then winked at Phoenix Five.

Phoenix Five took the hint and placed the 40 white crystals on the tray carried by the maid.

Seeing the 40 white crystals on the tray, the maid was slightly stunned.

She had worked in Myriad Treasure Pavilion for two years. Never had she seen any guard taking so many white crystals with her. In most cases, the master would give the crystals to the guard and then the guard would pass them to her.

Suddenly, she kind of envied the guard. It was a kind of happiness for one to follow such a master even if she was only responsible for serving tea.

“Let’s go.”

Duanmu Xi didn’t even take a look at the man wearing a black cloak.

No sooner had the three of them been looked on than they got out of VIP Room 7.

These people were the clients in the VIP rooms, including Chu Lian’er, Chu Xiaoran, Hua Xian’er, Xue Jinshuo and Yue Ruye–the young master of the Yue Family.

When everyone saw clearly Duanmu Xi’s appearance, they all gasped in admiration.

They thought the male elf in the iron cage was already exceedingly handsome but unexpectedly, this woman turned out to be even more good-looking.

Now, Duanmu Xi was dressed in white, whose long hair was tied up with a white ribbon. Her dark purple eyes were enchanting and her delicate face was just unforgettable.

Seeing these people’s obsessive eyes, Duanmu Xi frowned, turned around and headed to the stairs. The two people behind followed her closely.

Suddenly, Chu Lian’er rushed forward and wanted to pull the black cloak off the man behind Duanmu Xi.

Duanmu Xi’s eyes became cold and showed killing intent. A rush of dark red mysterious power was struck at the right hand that Chu Lian’er stretched out.

“Argh…”

Chu Lian’er screamed and kept trembling. She covered the bleeding right hand with her left hand.

Hearing the scream, everyone came to their senses.

However, they were too fascinated by Duanmu Xi to know what had just happened.

“Lian’er!”

Chu Xiaoran felt so sorry for the pitiful appearance of Chu Lian’er and hastened to apply the Styptic Powder that he had just got to Chu Lian’er.

“Brother…”

Chu Lian’er paled and looked at Chu Xiaoran tearfully.

Chu Xiaoran was very furious to look at the injured right hand of Chu Lian’er.

Although he had taught her a lesson, she was still his sister. It was okay that he hit her but not okay if others hit her.

“What are you doing? Even if my sister makes a mistake, I will teach her a lesson. How can you hurt her?”

Staring at Chu Xiaoran and his sister, Duanmu Xi snorted dismissively, “It is mild punishment to ruin her right hand since she dares to lay a finger on my man.”
