Chapter 128: Chapter 128: The Auction Ends
Translator: 549690339
By this time, their two families’ Spirit Stones were insufficient to place any higher bids.
Left with no choice, they had to give up.
Clearly, the Zhang Family must have had a secret collaboration with other clans.
Therefore, the Zhang Family’s Spirit Stones were much more abundant than they had previously anticipated.
Seeing the bidding between the two come to an end, the crowd in the venue finally came to their senses, turning their gazes toward the private box where the Zhang Family was seated.
Steward Cheng also came to his senses at this moment, beginning the countdown.
“Two hundred and thirty thousand Midium Grade Spirit Stones, for the first time.”
“Two hundred and thirty thousand Midium Grade Spirit Stones, for the second time.”
“Two hundred and thirty thousand Midium Grade Spirit Stones, for the third time…”
“Bang”
The auction hammer in Steward Cheng’s hand fell.
“Sold.
“Congratulations to Chen Fan, for acquiring the Lifespan Extension Pill.”
After Steward Cheng finished speaking, Elder Yu stepped forward from behind, walked onto the auction stage, and took the exquisitely crafted jade box from the maid’s hands.
He then proceeded toward the second floor.
After Elder Yu had left, Steward Cheng continued with the closing remarks, but Lin Jing wasn’t paying attention, as his focus remained on Elder Yu’s departure.
To have Elder Yu personally deliver the Elixir Medicine in place of the maid was quite a surprise to Lin Jing, but he didn’t dwell on it.
In Lin Jing’s eyes, after all, that elixir was extremely valuable, and such an arrangement was quite normal.
After the auction ended, the crowd left their seats and headed toward the exit.
Lin Jing was doing the same, getting up to go outside.
Just then, a voice came from behind him.
“Fellow Daoist, please wait a moment.”
Lin Jing was very familiar with this voice; it was that of the woman who had just been bidding against him.
He turned around and, to his surprise, saw a familiar face, the young master of the Li Family, Li Tangyu.
Next to Li Tangyu stood a young maiden who appeared to be about the same age as Qing Ling, with a very adorable look.
Li Tangyu walked over and clasped his fists at Lin Jing.
“Fellow Daoist, I apologize for the interruption.”
He continued:
“I have a Golden Core Cultivation Technique here, and an additional 3,000
Midium Grade Spirit Stones. I would like to exchange them for your Ling Yin Imperial Sword Technique, may I know your thoughts?”
Lin Jing frowned, looking at Li Tangyu and then at the young maiden behind him.
The Ling Yin Imperial Sword Technique suited him perfectly; if he were to exchange it for another spell, given his Spiritual Root aptitude, cultivating it would certainly be extremely difficult, and even if he managed to master it, the power would be much weaker.
Therefore, Lin Jing had no intention of exchanging it.
Lin Jing shook his head and said:
“Sorry, I have no plans to exchange it.”
After Lin Jing declined Li Tangyu’s exchange offer, he thought Li Tangyu would insist again.
Lin Jing had already thought of an excuse to refuse, but to his surprise, Li Tangyu simply turned around and said to the adorable girl following him:
“Nuo…”
“You see, others aren’t willing to trade, we can’t force them. Let’s go, shall we?”
“Brother, I really wanted it…”
The girl said coquettishly, clinging to Li Tangyu’s arm.
“You already have a sword technique, and Grandpa got it for you too. Isn’t it much better than the incomplete Ling Yin Imperial Sword Technique?”
“You don’t understand, the Ling Yin Imperial Sword Technique can conceal one’s aura. It’s perfect for sneak attacks…” “Always thinking about such things, let’s leave…”
With that, he took the girl and left the place.
Before leaving, he once again clasped his fists at Lin Jing:
“My sister has been somewhat troublesome; sorry for disturbing you, fellow Daoist. Here, I apologize on her behalf.”
“No worries,” Lin Jing also clasped his fists in return.
