While hearing Lingxi introduce the Demonic Blood Soul Essence, the beautiful woman of the Daybreak Merchants Union had announced the starting price of the product.

That was 35 000 deity jades, which was the price the Thunder Flame Crystals had been auctioned off at.

Amongst spirit medicine, there was a type where its price far exceeded its grade.

For instance, this Demonic Blood Soul Essence could actually be considered a spirit medicine, and a profound elementary-grade spirit medicine at that. However, due to its instantaneous abilities of increasing a cultivator’s strength with no side effects, it was considered very precious.

Many of high statuses were very willing to buy this and pa.s.s it to the younger generation in the family as a reward, allowing them to advance further.

Neither Xue Yuanzi nor Bai Yangzhen and the others knew the value of the Soul Diffusion Fruit from before. It was actually a profound elementary-grade spirit medicine that was able to help one condense the Deity Dan. A Soul Diffusion Fruit was priced around 10 000 deity jades.

The sole harvest from the auction were the ten Thunder Flame Crystals, which left Liu Lan unsatisfied. However, with the auction about to end and the rest of the items unsuitable for Long Chen, Liu Lan was prepared to bring Long Chen back.

Within the square, there was a large number of people who had gathered an interest in the Demonic Blood Soul Essence, and many had already begun bidding.

What gained Liu Lan’s interest was that Jin Sheng’en, who was in the compartment beside them, was partic.i.p.ating.

“40 000 deity jades.”

A cold voice sounded from the compartment beside them. The owner sounded careless, and his tone was somewhat similar to the Long Chen of the past while he had still been in Poplar Town.

“41 000!”

“42 000!”

“45 000!”

The price constantly went up.

One of the previous items had started with a price of 50 000 deity jades and been sold for 80 000. This Demonic Blood Soul Essence was the second-last item, and its price and value were all incomparable.

Keeping the Demonic Blood Soul Essence and arranging it second-last was to attract powerful, wealthy people to purchase and give it to the younger generation. At the same time, it would calm the hearts of the honoured guests before they went on with the final item of the day.

However, the final item was of no use to Long Chen, while the Demonic Blood Soul Essence was very important.

When the price of the Demonic Blood Soul Essence reached 50 000, it was evident there were lesser people bidding. After all, it was only valued at around 50 000 deity jades.

“55 000 deity jades.”

Jing Sheng’en laughed gently in the room beside them, firmly calling a price. Everyone pondered over it for a moment, and began to consider giving up.

“55 000 deity jades. Is there a higher price?”

That sweet and agreeable voice resounded in the square.

“No. Just countdown. I, Jin Sheng’en, want the Demonic Blood Soul Essence.”

That arrogant voice gave rise to feelings of dissatisfaction amongst the crowd.

By announcing his ident.i.ty, it was apparent that he wanted to make use of his status and force those of lesser backgrounds to back down. Even if one had money and wanted the essence, they could only give up.

“Jin Sheng’en has a large reputation in Yuanling City. On one hand, he is very proud and likes to stir up trouble, but he’s strong and said to be the number 1 genius of the outer faction. Most importantly, his father is the youngest and strongest great elder in the outer faction!”

Liu Lan, who had heard Jin Sheng’en name the price, was speechless. From her tone, it seemed she held dislike towards him.

After speaking, she glanced towards Long Chen, who was more sombre than usual. Just as her words sounded, the beautiful woman in the square was about to announce the results while looking unhappy, when a low voice rang.

“I’ll give 60 000 deity jades.” Long Chen spoke.

“Who is this?”

The sudden unfamiliar voice of a person actually daring to go against the prince of the Gold Clan caused everyone to be startled, and also filled with curiosity.

The beauty looked in this direction, puzzled, “The compartment next to the little prince of the Gold Clan should be the area where Liu Lan of the Green Faction is. There’s a man inside there…? He must have some great background for daring to s.n.a.t.c.h something from Jin Sheng’en.”

She did not like the way Jin Sheng’en worked, which was why when someone bid with a large increase of 5000 deity jades, she was stunned for a moment and immediately announced loudly, “60 000 deity jades. Is there anyone bidding higher than this? If not, the Demonic Blood Soul Essence shall belong to this brother!”

Liu Lan was shocked at Long Chen actions. “Long Chen, what are you doing? You’re already at the perfect mastery stage at the Human Dan Realm, and that essence is completely useless to you.”
