"Such a rich spiritual energy, well, you are worthy of being Master Ye." Jin Xiangrui didn't say much but came to the door and spoke to the maid outside.
As for Ye Liuyun and the other three, they had already sat down and were waiting for the auction to begin.
Jin Xiangrui stood beside Ye Liuyun obediently like a maid.
"Sister Xiangrui, why don't you sit down too? Why have you been standing all the time? We are old friends, don't be so polite." Ye Liuyun said.
Jin Xiangrui thought about it, then walked over and sat down next to Ye Liuyun. But as soon as she sat down, Lin Aoxue's eyes couldn't help but fall on Jin Xiangrui.
Obviously, Lin Aoxue's psychological defense against Jin Xiangrui has continued from the Silent City back then to the present.
Chapter 510 Jin Xiangrui's Thoughts (5000 words)
The reason why Lin Aoxue is wary of Jin Xiangrui.
This was mainly because she had used her charm to seduce Ye Liuyun when she was in the Silent City, but that time Jin Xiangrui simply wanted to find out Ye Liuyun's background through her own means.
This is the nature and habit of businessmen. They like to explore the details of their customers. After all, some ordinary customers may also be potential big customers.
Not to mention a customer like Ye Liuyun. Of course, the main reason was that Ye Liuyun was too weak at the time. If Ye Liuyun's cultivation was stronger than Jin Xiangrui's, she would definitely not use charm.
But after knowing Ye Liuyun's abilities, Jin Xiangrui's mentality changed. She had always wanted to find out Ye Liuyun's real gender. If he was a boy, with such superb alchemy skills and good looks, which female cultivator would not like him?
It's a pity that she tried many times but always failed.
As for Lin Aoxue, she had an inexplicable feeling when she saw Jin Xiangrui. She thought that Jin Xiangrui looked at Ye Liuyun with strange eyes, and there seemed to be a hint of spring in her eyes.
As they are all women, she naturally understands Jin Xiangrui's thoughts.
Lin Aoxue's feeling was definitely correct. Jin Xiangrui had feelings for Ye Liuyun. Especially after she knew that Ye Liuyun was a man before, this idea became even stronger.
If Ye Liuyun told her that he no longer liked women after becoming a woman, then she might not have bothered about it too much. But since Ye Liuyun still liked women after becoming a woman, Jin Xiangrui would have some concerns.
But she also understood that the possibility of success of her little idea was not high. Not to mention anything else, it was probably unlikely that she would be able to pass Lin Aoxue's test.
Jin Xiangrui could feel a sharp gaze staring at her from the side. She could guess who was looking at her, but she could only pretend not to know.
The waiting time was quite long, and half an hour seemed like half a day.
As the countdown on the big screen reached zero, Jin Baifeng strolled onto the auction table in a gorgeous long dress.
As soon as Jin Baifeng came on stage, it meant that the auction was about to begin, so the audience in the ordinary seats immediately quieted down, without Jin Baifeng having to shout for silence.
"Mr. Ye, Miss Lin's auction is about to begin. If you want something, you can take a look at the magic weapon in your hand. The magic weapon will have the product information and the market price of the product." Jin Xiangrui hurriedly said to Ye Liuyun beside her.
Ye Liuyun nodded, then spoke to Lin Aoxue and Yan Yu.
"Aoxue, and my two sisters, if you have anything you like, just buy it. It doesn't matter how much it is."
But this time Yan Yu and Chen Yao shook their heads at the same time.
"We won't bother you to spend money this time. We are rich now and we will not be stingy if you want something." Chen Yao said with a smile.
Seeing what they said, Ye Liuyun naturally wouldn't force it.
"Everyone, my name is Jin Baifeng. I am honored that you all have come to Tianyi City Wanbao Tower to attend my last auction at Tianyi City Wanbao Tower. After this auction, I will be transferred back to the headquarters."
"I would like to say goodbye to some old friends and acquaintances here, and hope we will meet again if possible." Jin Baifeng smiled and bowed to the customers in front of her to express her gratitude.
As soon as Jin Baifeng said this, some big shots who were acquainted with Jin Baifeng couldn't help but speak.
"Really? Then let me first congratulate Madam Jin on her rapid success. But after you leave, Madam Jin, who will take over for you? Will the cooperation between our sect and Wanbao Tower be affected?" asked the leader of a force that has been cooperating with Wanbao Tower for a long time.
As soon as Jin Baifeng heard the voice, she knew who it was.
"Master Wu, don't worry. Although I am leaving, the contract I signed with your Wu family is still effective. After I leave, Wanbao Tower in Tianyi City will be handed over to my niece Jin Xiangrui for management. If you have any questions, just go to her directly. I have already told her everything I should tell her." Jin Baifeng said.
After Jin Baifeng finished speaking, someone else spoke up.
"Really? Your niece, why don't you come out and let everyone know her, so that we don't have to visit her one by one, which is so inconvenient."
Many people want to meet Jin Xiangrui, but Jin Xiangrui cannot be seen at Ye Liuyun’s place at the moment.
"This? I'm sorry, distinguished guests. My niece is currently accompanying a very important guest. It may not be convenient for her to meet you today." Jin Xiangrui replied somewhat uncomfortably.
Having said that, the crowd was reluctant to continue making further requests. They were just a little confused as to what kind of distinguished guest needed to be personally received by the future owner of Wanbao Tower. Many of them present had never enjoyed the personal reception of Jin Baifeng.
If they wanted Jin Baifeng to receive them personally, they had to make an appointment, and only customers who had big business with Wanbaolou could meet Jin Baifeng.
"Okay, now that I've greeted you, let's get straight to today's topic. This is the last time I'll host the auction at Tianyi City's Wanbao Tower, so I've made ample preparations. This time, we have treasures and techniques at the level of the Nirvana Secret Realm, as well as some extremely valuable elixirs."
"Below are today's first batch of auction items. You can view the information of this first batch of auction items through the magic instruments in your hands. If you are interested, you can bid through the instrument after I say start bidding." Jin Baifeng gestured.
After Jin Baifeng finished saying this, she took a few steps back. As she stepped back, ten round tables slowly rose up on the stage, and ten items were placed on the tables.
These ten top-grade items include elixirs, medicinal herbs, skills, magic weapons, and some other treasures closely related to cultivators.
Among this first batch of items, the worst ones are treasures at the Dao Palace level. It is definitely impossible for the Wanbao Tower in Tianyi City to auction goods at the Lunhai level.
"Okay, I won't go into detail about the names, effects and uses of these products. Please check them out for yourselves." Jin Baifeng gestured.
As soon as these words were spoken, the monks in the audience began to watch the information about the top grade.
Ye Liuyun and his friends were also checking out these things, but unfortunately, they no longer needed Dao Palace-level treasures, so after looking at them, they lost interest at all.
“The four of you, with your current strength, you probably won’t be interested in the first one thousand treasures. You just need to wait until one thousand items are sold and the treasures of the Four Extreme Secret Realms level are sold before you can look at them,” Jin Xiangrui reminded.
Ye Liuyun chuckled.
"Okay then, I'll take a nap to kill time. When the treasures of the Four Extreme Secret Realm level come on stage, please remind us, Sister Xiangrui." Ye Liuyun smiled and lay in Lin Aoxue's arms.
Lin Aoxue was speechless, thinking that this was not a place to attend an auction, but rather a place to waste time.
Jin Xiangrui looked at Ye Liuyun lying in Lin Aoxue's arms, and a look of envy appeared on her face.
"Oh! Why would such an outstanding man become a woman? But this is not the point. The point is, can I make her fall in love with me? Even if I become a concubine, at least she will be the man I like." Jin Xiangrui murmured in her heart.
Jin Xiangrui’s mentality is that instead of marrying someone she doesn’t like, it’s better to be a concubine to someone she likes. Being a concubine just means a bad status, but she doesn’t care.
But she also understood that all this was just wishful thinking on her part. After all, the key point was whether others were interested in her.
The auction at Wanbaolou in Yicheng was particularly quiet on that day. After all, no one opened their mouths to bid. Everyone was using the magic weapons in their hands to bid.
Not only that, the current prices of these ten top-quality items are also displayed on the round table, and the numbers are increasing all the time.
This kind of auction has a big advantage, which is that other people will not be able to know who bought the treasure, which can also be regarded as hiding the identity of the customer who is auctioning the item.
The first one thousand items are all needed by the Taoist monks, so the participants in the auction are all guests with ordinary seats, such as the formal disciples of the Supreme Induction Sect. They basically look down on these Taoist Palace-level treasures unless they have some special functions.
After all, their Tai Shang Ganying Sect is a large and powerful sect, and they can buy anything they need at the Tai Shang Ganying Sect's disciple market. Why would they have to come to the Wan Bao Lou auction to buy it?
What they want is something that they cannot obtain in the Supreme Induction Sect, or something that the Supreme Induction Sect cannot give them, such as skills.
The skills of the Tai Shang Ganying Sect are not so easy to obtain, and even if you can obtain them, there are not many that are suitable for you.
Therefore, when Tai Shang Ganying teaches some disciples, they will only pay more attention to some exercises. If they come across exercises that they can use and are suitable for them, they will also buy them.
Jin Baifeng has been paying close attention to the increase in the amount of the first batch of goods. Each batch of goods will be auctioned for one minute. The goods will be sold at whatever price they can reach within this minute. For this Taoist palace-level product, Jin Baifeng doesn't need to ask them to raise the price.
At this rate, ten items per minute, one hundred items in ten minutes, and six hundred items in an hour. In other words, Dao Palace-level products can be completed in one hour and forty minutes at most.
The values of these treasures are also from low to high.
However, a batch of special goods soon appeared. What goods were they? Ye Liuyun’s combat pills.
"Huh? This batch of goods are all pills, and they are labeled as combat pills. It's strange, I've never heard of combat pills. Could they be pills that increase strength?" Some people became interested in the second batch of goods.
This batch of pills mainly include Ye Liuyun's lower-grade Ice Explosion Pill, Thunderstorm Pill, and other pills. These pills are all two-lined, and can have a certain lethality to Taoist Palace-level cultivators.
"Two-patterned pills are interesting. It seems that they were made by the same alchemist. But why did this alchemist make these strange pills?" Some monks who understand pills were puzzled.
Especially for cultivators above the Four Extreme Secret Realms, they felt that it was a bit of a waste for the alchemist to refine this kind of pill, because it was clearly stated on it that for combat pills, one pill would be lost for every one activated, and even the power was indicated.
But even so, there are still many people who are very interested in this pill, especially the alchemists. You know, there are only a handful of people in the entire Medicine Peak who can refine two-pattern pills. They will buy the pill back, perhaps they can gain some understanding from it.
"This pill? Is this the work of Junior Sister Ye?" In a VIP room, a cold and arrogant woman in a white dress looked at the pill in confusion.
A closer look revealed that this person was none other than Li Jianxin. However, this Li Jianxin had changed a lot compared to more than a hundred years ago. How should I put it? Maybe she had accepted her identity. Unlike before, she basically wore men's clothes unless it was necessary.
But now, she was obviously wearing women's clothes, and she also put on some light makeup and wore some jewelry.
This is normal. After all, she has been a woman for more than two hundred years, which is longer than the time she has been a man. Practitioners believe in letting nature take its course and are free from thoughts. They will definitely not keep worrying about gender issues.
This batch of pills were sold out very quickly, and not a single one was left unsold.
As batch after batch of goods were auctioned off, soon all the one thousand Taoist Palace-level treasures were sold out.
"Mr. Ye, the following are the auction items at the level of the Four Extremes Secret Realm. Each batch of auction items at the level of the Four Extremes Secret Realm is limited to five minutes." Jin Xiangrui immediately woke up the sleeping Ye Liuyun.
However, Ye Liuyun seemed to be sleeping very soundly, and Jin Xiangrui's gentle call could not wake him up.
Looking at Ye Liuyun's expression again, this guy looked so obscene that I don't know if he was dreaming or not, and judging from her appearance, she was definitely having a wet dream.
"Huh?" Jin Xiangrui was embarrassed.
When Lin Aoxue saw that Ye Liuyun had not woken up yet, she immediately rolled her eyes and reached out to pinch Ye Liuyun's nose.
If his nose is pinched, he will definitely wake up quickly.
"Oh, what are you doing?" Ye Liuyun instinctively opened Lin Aoxue's hand, then sat up in a daze.
"What? Are you here to find a place to sleep? You've already slept for more than an hour. Now the products at the Four Extreme Secret Realm level are on stage, and Lord Jin has called you several times, but you're sleeping like a pig." Lin Aoxue complained.
When Ye Liuyun heard this, he remembered that he had asked Jin Xiangrui to call him.
"Ahem, I'm sorry, Sister Xiangrui. I overslept." Ye Liuyun wiped the corner of his mouth and apologized to Jin Xiangrui.
"It's okay, it's okay. In fact, the treasures in the Four Poles Secret Realm are probably not what the master guard really needs. You are all senior disciples of the Supreme Induction Sect. Naturally, you have no shortage of treasures and skills. However, among this batch of treasures, there are some interesting things, such as puppets with the combat power of the Four Poles, monster pets and other products suitable for the cultivators of the Four Poles." Jin Xiangrui hurriedly shook her head and introduced.
This kind of stuff does have a certain value, especially now that the future of Nanling is worrying, they might even have to go to war with the neighboring Gushen Realm.
The Supreme Induction Sect sent people to contact the forces of the Gu God Realm, but they were turned away. The reason was simple. The Supreme Induction Sect regarded witchcraft, poison and spells as evil and heresy, so the Gu God Realm was destined to be unable to coexist in harmony with the Supreme Induction Sect.
But currently both sides are very restrained. The Gu Ling Holy Land said that as long as the forces of the Jiuxiao Realm do not provoke them, they will not take the initiative to deal with the forces of the Jiuxiao Realm.
But who can say for sure about such things? After all, there is no boundary wall separating the two domains now, and they can travel freely between the two domains.
During this period of time, many cultivators from the Jiuxiao Realm have entered the surrounding forces to investigate the situation, and even many cultivators from the Jiuxiao Realm have been killed by the Gushen Realm.
The reason is simple. You have intruded into our territory. The distribution of power between the Ancient God Realm and the Nine Sky Realm is similar. There are not many public areas, and most places have owners.
It will only do good and no harm to carry more treasures that can increase your chances of winning.
This large batch of goods has appeared on Ye Liuyun and his companions' magical weapons, and Ye Liuyun and his three companions began to check them out.
"This thing is not bad, a Four Extremes Divine Form Realm puppet. But its grade is a bit low. Sister Xiangrui, there should be more powerful puppets in this auction." Ye Liuyun asked.
Jin Xiangrui nodded.
"Mr. Ye, if you want combat puppets, you might as well wait a little longer. I don't think these puppets are particularly useful to you at the moment." Jin Xiangrui said again.
But Ye Liuyun was not only interested in the puppet, because there was actually a higher-grade formation training diagram on it. Ye Liuyun was very interested in this thing. She had already completely learned the previous one and happened to need a new diagram, so she participated in the auction without hesitation.
With Ye Liuyun's current worth, she would definitely be able to get what she wanted. Even the strong men from the Jiutian Holy Land would not be able to snatch it from her.
Ye Liuyun has already decided that she will get all the goods in the Nirvana Secret Realm. No, to be more precise, Ye Liuyun will not let go of anything that can be used in the Transformation Secret Realm.
"Eh? Third sister, oh no, third brother, are you interested in formations?" Chen Yao, who was standing aside, saw Ye Liuyun participating in the auction and asked curiously.
"Second sister, there is no need to hide it. Sister Xiangrui knows my identity." Ye Liuyun reminded her.
After Ye Liuyun said this, Chen Yao and Yan Yu immediately looked at Jin Xiangrui.
The two of them didn't expect that Jin Xiangrui also knew Ye Liuyun's true identity. That meant that Ye Liuyun and Jin Xiangrui had a special relationship, at least that's what they thought.
"Oh? Okay, third sister, you purchased the formation map because you want to become a formation master?" Chen Yao asked again.
Ye Liuyun chuckled.
"Second sister, I have been a formation master for a long time, but only a spiritual-level formation master. I learned it when I was bored, and I have already learned it to the limit. I need new diagrams. Isn't it good that there happens to be a formation diagram of the Profound level? So I bought it." Ye Liuyun replied.
When Chen Yao and Yan Yu heard this, their admiration for Ye Liuyun could only be described as prostrating themselves.
"Pervert." Chen Yao gave Ye Liuyun two words.
They only knew that Ye Liuyun was great at alchemy, but they didn't expect that Ye Liuyun was also a formation master, and was already capable of becoming a Xuan-level formation master.
Of course, there were many things they didn’t know, and Ye Liuyun didn’t tell them everything.
Chapter 511: Collecting Treasures (5000 words + 3300 monthly tickets plus more)
As long as Ye Liuyun or Lin Aoxue can use something at the level of the Four Extreme Secret Realms, Ye Liuyun will basically not miss it.
Although she is very powerful and doesn't have to fear anyone or any force, to be honest, Ye Liuyun only has seven Illusion Pills left.
