Chapter 127: Chapter 127 Dust Settles

As soon as Steward Cheng’s words had fallen,
two maidservants came up, carrying a small display stand, and walked onto the auction stage.
On that display stand was a beautifully carved jade box, and inside the jade box lay a grey-black Elixir Medicine that looked quite ordinary and unremarkable.
Steward Cheng gestured for the two maidservants to come forward to the auction stage to display the Elixir Medicine for everyone to see.
Once the two maidservants were in position, Steward Cheng followed suit, stepping forward and beginning his introduction:
“This is the last item of the auction today…”
“A fourth rank Elixir Medicine, a Superior Lifespan Extension Pill, consuming it can increase one’s lifespan by 50 years.”
“Fourth Rank Elixir Medicines are extremely rare, and I’m sure many have never seen one. Not to mention the difficulty of obtaining a Fourth Rank Spirit
Plant, the challenge of refining a Fourth Rank Elixir Medicine is extraordinary.”
“Furthermore, this is a Lifespan Extension Pill that can increase life expectancy, its value is self-evident.”
“This Superior Lifespan Extension Pill has a starting bid of 20,000 Medium Grade Spirit Stones, with each subsequent bid increasing by no less than 1,000 Medium Grade Spirit Stones.”
“Bang”
Having finished his brief introduction, Steward Cheng lifted the auction hammer and brought it down sharply.
“Now, let the bidding begin.”
The moment the Lifespan Extension Pill was revealed, the hall fell silent, as everyone knew it was beyond their reach.
“Thirty-thousand Medium Grade Spirit Stones.”
In a corner of the hall, someone boldly called out an astronomical bid of thirty thousand.
“Since you’ve done so much, why not call out the bid yourself?”
“Fifty thousand…”
The voice was old and withered, unmistakably that of the Zhang Family Patriarch.
Inside the Liu Clan’s box, Wu Cai Immortal looked somber. Liu Yiyuan and the rest of the Liu family members sat quietly behind him, being extremely careful not to make any unnecessary movements.
“Fifty-one thousand Medium Grade Spirit Stones.”
“If Zhang Dao-friend has invited us, then there is no point in hiding any longer,” a voice rang out.
That statement shocked Liu Yiyuan, as it was from the old patriarch of the Li Family who had spoken.
Wu Cai Immortal also frowned at this, turning his gaze towards the Li Family’s box.
“Sixty thousand Medium Grade Spirit Stones,” this time it was still the Zhang Family Patriarch.
“Sigh…’
Wu Cai Immortal exhaled deeply before speaking.
“Seventy thousand Medium Grade Spirit Stones.”
It seemed he was also ready to lay all his cards on the table.
But it made sense since this matter had been brewing for so long, and by now, almost everyone in Fang Market was aware of it.
There was no point in hiding any longer.
“Good… Good… Good…”
The Zhang Family Patriarch said, laughing.
“This is getting interesting.”
“Eighty thousand Medium Grade Spirit Stones.” “I hope you two won’t disappoint me.” Wu Cai Immortal continued:
“Ninety thousand…”
By now, everyone in the hall had caught on to what was happening, and they watched the second floor in silence, not daring to speak out of fear of angering the two individuals in the midst of bidding.
Even Steward Cheng on the auction stage did not dare to interrupt them.
“One hundred thousand Medium Grade Spirit Stones.”
The voice of the Zhang Family Patriarch remained calm, showing no signs of fluctuation.
In the Liu Clan’s box, Wu Cai Immortal was deep in thought, sitting next to another old man.
This elder’s complexion was dark, his eyebrows slanted upward, exuding an aura of imposing authority, making it clear that he was not to be trifled with.
“There’s no need to worry, Liu Dao-friend. Combined, the Spirit Stones of our two families should surely surpass Zhang Family’s, right?”
“Let’s iust keeD bidding.”
Having said that, the elder raised his voice:
“One hundred and ten thousand Medium Grade Spirit Stones.”
