Chapter 99 - Ancient Mysterious Ginseng (2/2)
Qin Nan grabbed the ginseng straight away and put it into his pocket.
Bai Heng was stunned throughout the whole purchase. After a while, he could not help but ask, “Young Master Qin Nan, why did you buy this ginseng? It clearly is rotting. There’s no point buying it at all...”
Qin Nan smilingly replied, “Just out of curiosity. Plus, it was only ten Martial Emperor Pills.”
Bai Heng was left speechless, who then exclaimed, Young Master Qin Nan is indeed himself, not regarding the ten Martial Emperor Pills as something precious at all.
Little did he know, that the corner of Qin Nan’s lips had been twitching continuously.
“The outer domain auction is about to start.” Bai Heng blurted out, “Let’s go and sign up, so we could participate too.”
Qin Nan nodded his head, and arrived at an auction house under Bai Heng’s guidance.
The place was crowded with people, a rough estimation of a little over a hundred outer disciples. Many of them had achieved the tenth-layer Body Tempering Realm, quite intimidating and easily noticeable among the crowd.
Qin Nan and Bai Heng registered themselves, and paid one hundred Xiantian Pills each as deposits. They then waited patiently for the auction to start.
“So you’re Qin Nan?”
All of a sudden, a prideful voice was heard by the two.
This caused Qin Nan to frown his eyebrows, before glancing in the direction of the voice. Before them, a young man wearing a luxurious robe was looking down at him with a scornful face.
Although this person’s cultivation was only at the eighth-layer Body Tempering Realm, Qin Nan could easily detect the two disciples beside him possessed tenth-layer Body Tempering Realm cultivations.
“Who are you?” Upon seeing the unfriendly approach, Bai Heng stepped forward with a cold expression.
“Piss off, none of your business.” The prideful young man glanced at him disdainfully, before staring directly at Qin Nan and saying, “Friend, I’m telling you; I’m Nangong Ershao, brother of Nangong Cheng. Listen to me now, I’m not very fond of you. I’ll not let you join the auction today. If not, you should face the consequences yourself!”
After saying this, the prideful young man let out a cold humph and raised his head, as his face was filled with a mocking expression.
However, after he finished speaking, the crowd around them exploded.
“What? Nangong Cheng’s brother? Is he really Nangong Cheng’s brother?”
“Nangong Ershao, I’ve heard of this guy before. He is extremely scornful, and in the past, harassed lots of female disciples, but they were not daring enough to expose him…”
“So disdainful? But with his identity as Nangong Cheng’s brother, it was reasonable that no one dares to confront him.”
“Sigh, seems like that kid run out of luck.”
……
After hearing the words, Bai Heng’s expression changed slightly, as he went up to Qin Nan’s ear and whispered, “Nangong Cheng is ranked first among the outer disciples within the outer domain. Not only has he a ninth-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit, his cultivation has reached the half-Xiantian state, and he’s well favored by the First Elder of the outer domain.”
Qin Nan nodded his head without any expression after hearing this.
At that instant, Nangong Ershao could not help but be proud of himself and said, “How is that, are you scared?”
Qin Nan glanced at him, as two words came out from his mouth in a cold tone, “F**k off!”
The words served as a sudden thunderclap, which caused every disciple at the scene to be utterly stunned.
