"Have you heard of something?" Gu Ping asked, dipping his leg into the wine and writing the words "Bloodfire" on the table.
Ying Wuyi replied, "I haven't heard of it, but if Second Uncle Ying Hong has, that's enough. Ying Hong conveyed to Ying Wuyi the significance of Bloodfire in relation to Demonic Cultivators, making it clear that Gu Ping's words were indeed pointed. However, could two young people handle such a significant matter? This left Ying Wuyi with some doubts.
"How many people did your junior brother bring this time?"
"Just the two of us," Gu Ping said. Sensing Ying Wuyi's concerns, he reassured him. Gu Ping took out his Identity Jade Tablet and placed it on the table. "If there is a Great Master watching over us, he will shatter this jade tablet and arrive within a quarter of an hour. If not, then the two of us will suffice. At that time, we just need you to ensure those petty criminals have no chance to escape amidst the chaos."
"In that case, I will respectfully comply," Ying Wuyi said. "When the time comes, please speak well of my junior brother and the elders before the sect. Our purpose here is to mend relations between our two families, which should be a matter of great righteousness in your heart."
"Rest assured," Gu Ping replied. "If my heart were not pure, how could I have taken on such a task?"
The loud revelry in the tower echoed as Lou Dong shouted and clamored. Different scenes unfolded within the same room, yet no one found it surprising; after all, the treasures displayed were enough to create such an effect.
"This Bright Red Wu Yue Twin Hooks is a magical artifact from a thousand years ago before Xian Wu Yue ascended to the Celestial Realm. It is a Medium-Grade Magical Artifact," the seller announced. "Previously, it was sold for one price. Ru Ming has a good pair; I wonder which esteemed person wishes to purchase this item? The starting price is ten thousand spirit stones, and each subsequent bid must be no less than ten thousand. Now, let’s see if everyone here is prepared for tomorrow’s journey."
"One hundred thousand."
"Two hundred thousand."
Fifty thousand.
The magical artifacts had always been the focal point of the auction, drawing eager competition from everyone. Who wouldn't want something that could enhance their strength? No one would complain about having too many trump cards. The longer a cultivator had been in the game, the more valuable items they would accumulate over time, as experience brought knowledge and good fortune.
As soon as the Yan Dong Medium-Grade Spirit Tool, the Wu Yue Twin Hooks, made its appearance, bids began to pour in. The price soared rapidly, doubling in no time, showing no signs of slowing down. Although not many people were interested in hooks, there were always those who appreciated them. For major sects, even if they didn't need it themselves, they could always find someone within their ranks who would.
In such competitions for magical artifacts, Loose Cultivators often found themselves at a disadvantage. They had to be meticulous with their finances for each auction they attended. Few could manage to return safely with a haul like Gu Ping did from the Flowing Cloud Realm.
Thirty thousand.
Ying Wuyi quietly remarked to a maid pouring wine beside him, her voice amplified by a sound-enhancing talisman that carried to the first floor. However, there was little commotion on the second floor.
What an enticing little fairy she was; she could easily serve as a canary in that building, drawing attention from those who would never see the wonders of the outside world.
Just after placing his bid, Ying Wuyi began to critique the auction's organizer from the last event. His expression was one of regret, as if he were gazing at a broken reed by the roadside. This caught the attention of the maid beside him, her eyes sparkling with unspoken thoughts.
The thirty-thousand price tag had already exceeded what the Wu Yue Twin Hooks were worth. However, magical artifacts often had no fixed price; if it were up to them to bid thirty thousand, it might not have been possible for Dong Lai to secure it. But once Ying Wuyi spoke up, those on the second floor who recognized him as part of the Ying Clan and Third Prince knew better than to compete with him for it. Thus, without any suspense, the twin hooks fell into Ying Wuyi's hands.
He intended to give this item to Gu Shidi as a token of goodwill, hoping his junior brother wouldn’t think him stingy.
With such a significant gift in hand, what could he say? Seeing Gu Ping shake his head made Ying Wuyi feel compelled to argue for a moment. To his surprise, Gu Ping turned to Ye You and said something that made it clear that Bu Luo’s good intentions would likely be accepted by their sect. His sister should reluctantly accept it on behalf of their sect first.
As the maid carrying the Wu Yue Twin Hooks approached Ying Wuyi, she handed them over upon hearing Gu Ping's words. This left Ying Wuyi feeling somewhat awkward; he had never encountered someone so straightforward before. Meanwhile, Ying Hong beside him contemplated this and increasingly felt that Gu Hong, an Outer Sect Disciple of the Dao Sect, was quite remarkable indeed.
The treasure known as Bloodfire, I believe many have heard of it.
Upon hearing the name Bloodfire, several people felt a stir in their hearts, knowing that the good show was about to begin.
