"Wait!" Suiyi broke free from the hand that was being held and called out to Ziyou.

"This is the one!" Sui Yi said decisively, turning around and tossing a high-grade spirit stone onto the counter.

Is that enough?

"Enough, enough! Distinguished guests, please come upstairs!" Upon seeing the spirit stones, the shopkeeper beamed with joy and hurried over to respectfully lead the group upstairs.

Suiyi pulled Ziyou, who looked reluctant, and followed behind.

"The five superior rooms here are all connected together, so that several distinguished guests can stay together and take care of each other."

"The shopkeeper is right!" Sui Yi nodded and smiled.

"Then I won't bother you any longer. If there's anything you need, please feel free to tell me."

"good!"

Then, the shopkeeper took two steps back, turned around, and left.

"Your young master and I will each have a room, my two attendants will each have a room, and the rest of you five can make your own arrangements."

"Okay!" the people behind nodded.

Suiyi turned to look at Ziyou, pulled him into the room in front of her, and pressed him down on the stool.

"You must think I've been ripped off, right?"

"Isn't that right?" Ziyou retorted.

"No, I find it very convenient to stay here. I observed the location before I came. Although it's expensive, there's a reason for it. It's close to the market, and the residents are mostly powerful and influential people, which makes it easy for us to gather information. Besides, if we change hotels, there might not be as many rooms available."

"Oh! I'll do whatever you want, as long as you're willing." Ziyou replied unhappily, pursing his lips.

"You've been walking all day, go and rest! We still have things to do tomorrow." Suiyi turned and left.

Inside the room, Suiyi sat on a stool and let Ah Xing out.

"Sui Sui, I don't believe you'll be taken advantage of."

"You know, I'll eat anything, I just won't suffer a loss." He gestured mysteriously with his chin.

"So what do you plan to do?"

"It's simple, just spit out what you ate from me!"

She was indeed very casual; apart from that man, no one could take advantage of her in the slightest. Jealousy, oh jealousy, oh envy, why wasn't she so lucky? Ah Xing wailed!

"After we finish eating, how about we take a stroll around the auction house?"

"You want to sell the pills?" Ah Xing has been with her for so long that he knows her quite well.

"Of course, most of these pills are priceless and unavailable, and selling them at auctions would be extremely profitable."

"Suit yourself! But you can't auction off the food rations of the three of us, or we won't allow it."

"Tch! People would complain about your haphazardly mixed-together stuff!" Suiyi retorted, rolling her eyes.

"I wonder who made that?" Ah Xing retorted without backing down.

Three hours later, when many people had fallen asleep, Sui Yi called Qiu Niu and Da Jiao and went out through the back door of the inn.

The group arrived at the entrance of the auction house. Looking at the tall building, it truly lived up to its reputation for luxury and grandeur. Any single item auctioned here would be incredibly expensive! Many people with rare and precious treasures like to come here to auction, and with the crowd creating a buzz, the prices drive up!

"Do you have any proof?" Sui Yi and her group were stopped by the guards as they approached the door.

"We're here to auction items. It's our first time here, and we don't know the rules. Do we need any kind of proof to get in?"

"To enter the auction, you need a pass, and this pass will only be issued to you after your items are appraised at the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion."

"Okay! How do I get to the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion?"

"Go out from here, turn left and the first house is it!" The guard pointed out the way to Suiyi in a humble yet assertive manner.

“Okay!” Suiyi nodded, turned around and led Dajiao and the other two towards the route the guard pointed out to find the Treasure Appraisal Pavilion.

"Here!" Sui Yi exclaimed, looking up at the three gilded characters "Appraisal Pavilion" on the plaque. She then lowered her head and walked straight inside.

"I wonder if you gentlemen need any help?" As soon as they entered, a maid came over to greet them.

"We need your appraisal service. Could you please call your appraiser?"

"I wonder what item the young master needs appraised, so I can make arrangements."

"Pills!" Sui Yi simply uttered two words, and the maid's expression suddenly became quite interesting.

"Is that not allowed?" Sui Yi asked, looking at the somewhat dazed maid.

"Oh! Please have a seat, everyone. I'll go and fetch the appraiser right away." With that, he turned and headed towards the inner room. Another maidservant came to pour tea for Sui Yi and the others. Less than five minutes later, a middle-aged man rushed out, followed by the maidservant who had gone to inform them.

When he saw the person who wanted the treasure appraised, his expression gradually turned cold, and he became somewhat arrogant.

"What kind of elixir does the young master wish to have appraised?" the appraiser asked as he approached Sui Yi.

"I have five Life-Giving Pills here. I need you to appraise them so I can take them to auction." Sui Yi took out a jade bottle from her pocket and placed it on the table.

"Life-Giving Pill?" The appraiser frowned; he had never heard of such a pill.

"This Life-Giving Pill can give birth to spiritual roots in people who have no spiritual roots, and there are no restrictions. In other words, after taking my Life-Giving Pill, there is a 100% chance that spiritual roots will grow in your body and you will be able to enter the path of cultivation." Sui Yi calmly explained the effects of the pill, which shocked the people around her, and they immediately turned their eager eyes to the jade bottle.

"This...is this really true?" With trembling hands, the appraiser stood up and asked excitedly.
