"Does he also need this?"
When Rong Lianxin heard Chi Yuan bid, she frowned slightly, but without thinking much, she directly bid, "Five thousand!"
Because of the low demand for fifth-grade low-level spiritual herbs, their prices are usually not too high. Bidding starts at two thousand yuan stones, and the final price is usually around three or four thousand. Rong Lianxin's bid of five thousand is already considered very high.
However, Rong Lianxin didn't care about spending more spirit stones. She was determined to get this spiritual herb, and she would snatch it even if it cost more spirit stones.
Seeing that You Rong Lianxin had made another bid, and raised it by 1,500, Chi Yuan's heart sank. You Rong Lianxin was clearly determined to win, otherwise she wouldn't have raised the price so high. It was obviously meant to discourage him.
However, Chi Yuan did not want to give up easily. He had come for this spiritual herb, so how could he give up so easily?
The bidding will now resume.
"Young Master Fufeng, please stop bidding!"
However, before Chi Yuan could speak, Rong Xinya quickly stopped him.
What does this mean?
Chi Yuan frowned. "This medicine is the only thing I want to bid on."
After saying that, he ignored Rong Xinya and started to name his price.
Upon seeing this, Rong Xinya became anxious and quickly said, "Young master, I can let you have this for free!"
Upon hearing this, Chi Yuan stopped abruptly, turned to look at Rong Xinya, and said, "You want me to get this for free? I don't quite understand what Miss Xinya means."
You Rongxinya didn't rush to answer. First, she cast a soundproof barrier around the two of them before saying seriously, "Young Master, this is also my fault. I didn't inform my elder sister of some things beforehand, otherwise she definitely wouldn't have competed with you for this medicine."
"But now that my elder sister has quoted a high price, there is no need for you to compete with her. As long as you can do my Ye family a favor that is nothing to you, my elder sister will definitely offer this medicine with both hands!"
Chi Yuan looked at You Rongxinya thoughtfully, and after a while said, "Speak, what is it? If it is really a small matter, I will naturally be happy to serve you."
You Rongxin breathed a sigh of relief, her expression softening, and then truthfully told him, "To be honest, my elder sister bid for this medicine in order to heal my mother's injuries."
"Many years ago, my mother went out and encountered a powerful enemy. Although she eventually killed the enemy, she was also caught in the enemy's dirty trick and was left with a chronic illness that is difficult to cure."
"This hidden ailment is cold and strange, and ordinary pills are completely ineffective. In addition, it is deeply rooted in the heart meridian and cannot be forcibly removed by external force. Only by having Mother introduce a powerful flame into the body to refine it can this ailment be resolved. Such flames are high-level demonic flames, the true fire of fire-type experts, or even the spiritual fire of heaven and earth."
"However, over the years, my Ye family has searched the entire Daqian Kingdom but has not found a single person who possesses a spirit fire. As a last resort, my mother had no choice but to consume high-grade fire-type spiritual medicines and use the fire spiritual power contained within them to temporarily suppress this disease and delay its onset."
"I see."
Hearing this, Chi Yuan finally understood why You Rong Xin Ya said she could give him the Heavenly Fire Earth Core Grass for free, and also why You Rong Qing Yan wanted to marry You Rong Xin Ya to him at their first meeting. It was all because of his Nine Netherworld Fire.
However, he still had some doubts and asked, "I understand what Miss Xinya means, but since you said that high-level demonic fire and the true fire of fire-type experts can also cure this disease, why not seek these two types of fire, but instead seek spiritual fire? Spiritual fire is rare, but the first two types of fire are not difficult to find, are they?"
Knowing that Chi Yuan would ask this question, Rong Xinya smiled bitterly and replied, "Young Master's doubt is also the problem that has troubled Mother for many years. As long as these two kinds of fire are powerful enough, they can indeed cure this disease, but to achieve this power, whether it is demon fire or true fire, it must at least reach the Venerable level."
“However, my mother is only at the high-level Spirit Master level. Using these two flames is too uncontrollable. Moreover, the hidden ailment is deeply rooted in her heart meridian. The slightest mistake will take her life. Unless absolutely necessary, I really dare not take this risk.”
"However, using demonic fire or true fire below the Venerable level would be too weak, and forcibly refining it would damage the source of life and increase the threat of the hidden disease. Therefore, we can only seek spiritual fire, which Mother can completely control and whose power can reach the Venerable level with the amplification of her cultivation."
Chi Yuan listened quietly to Rong Xinya's explanation, his gaze shifting between light and shadow.
If Rong Xinya didn't deliberately downplay the matter, then this favor is worth doing. It would allow me to earn the Heavenly Fire Earth Core Grass and also gain a favor from Rong Qingyan.
The problem is that things might not be that simple. They say it's nothing to him, but who knows what the actual situation is?
Rong Xinya seemed to see through Chi Yuan's concerns and said sincerely, "Young Master, please believe me. My Ye family has absolutely no intention of seizing your spiritual fire. We only ask for your help to borrow your spiritual fire. You just need to release the spiritual fire, and then your mother will lead and control the flames you release. There will be no other requests!"
Seeing Rong Xinya's sincere eyes, Chi Yuan thought to himself that she wouldn't dare to plot against him without knowing whether he had a powerful backer, so he decided to agree.
"Okay, I'll trust you this once."
Chi Yuan agreed, "As long as you give me this Heavenly Fire Earth Core Grass, your mother can borrow the spiritual fire."
Upon hearing this, Rong Xinya was overjoyed and smiled, saying, "Thank you, Young Master Fufeng! If you can help my mother cure this hidden ailment, in addition to this Heavenly Fire Earth Core Grass, my Ye family will also give you another generous gift!"
Chi Yuan nodded slightly, not asking about the generous gift, and instead asked, "Since your mother needs spiritual fire to cure that hidden ailment, why didn't you ask me for help before?"
