Chapter 160: The Best Lottery
To cut off someone's source of wealth is like killing his parents.
Xu Qiuqian even wanted to kill the Su family's manager.
The Su family has said so, how can the Xiao family not say it?
It is possible, but in this way, even if they win, the Xiao family will lose the hearts of the people and the market.
Xiao Pingyue said worriedly: "Manager Xu, if you think..."
"No need, just say whatever you want to say, don't worry about me."
Xu Qiuqian sneered.
She wanted to see how the Su family planned to win! "Okay, I got it. Manager Xu, don't worry, you won't suffer any loss." At worst, the Xiao family would make up the 20%.
The competition was not held immediately, but was brewing for some time.
It is obvious that the Su family is waiting for the news to spread.
Sure enough, after a while, other cultivators who received the news came one after another, especially those who needed certain materials or alchemy arrays and talismans, all hoping that they would be chosen so that they would not have to waste energy and time searching for them.
"The Su family is so confident that they didn't even arrange for anyone to be present in the audience."
Zhu Yichen looked around the stage and whispered to Xu Qiuqian, "Master, they are basically independent cultivators or people from small families and sects, but I'm not sure if the Su family has bribed them."
"It should be impossible to bribe."
Xiao Pingyue explained: "Because they believe that in Yancheng, if even they can't get something, then no one else will be able to get it."
This can be seen from the fact that the rare spiritual plant Fu Teng can be obtained from other continents.
The Su family is indeed capable.
It's no wonder that even though the Su family's power is only above average, there are several big families cooperating with it. If the Su family produces one or two Jindan Zhenren, it will surely become a big family in Yancheng.
Thinking of this, Xiao Pingyue's heart moved.
Perhaps the Su family is using this opportunity to build momentum for the Su family.
Why?
There is only one reason, the Su family may already have a Jindan Zhenren.
The Su family wants to use this opportunity to build momentum, and also to maximize the influence of this Jindan Zhenren who appeared in the Su family. In this way, the Su family can become a superior family by relying on the influence of Jindan Zhenren and this competition.
Taking another look at the determined look of the Su family's steward, Xiao Pingyue became more certain of his guess.
but……
His eyes fell on the calm and composed Xu Qiuqian, Xiao Pingyue curled his lips and calmed down.
I'm afraid the Su family's plan will fail.
Seeing that the hall was already crowded, the Su family announced the official start of the competition.
The steward of the Su family took out a jade stick, which was in the shape of a bamboo slip and was light brown in color.
"This is a top-notch sign, a mid-level fifth-grade magic weapon. When it is thrown into the air, it will be sensed by spiritual power and automatically select one of the spiritual powers. All you have to do is send the spiritual power to it when I throw this sign into the air."
"I didn't expect there was such a magical weapon! I want it so much!" Zhu Xin's eyes sparkled.
"Xiao Xin!" Zhu Yichen scolded Zhu Xin.
The steward of the Su family nearby laughed and said, "You, a mortal girl, are quite knowledgeable. This lucky number has more than one effect. This is just one of its insignificant effects."
After saying that, he glanced at Xiao Pingyue with a sense of superiority.
Zhu Xin also realized that she had said the wrong thing and shouldn't have praised someone. Even if she did, she could only do it in her heart.
She looked apologetic: "I'm sorry, Sister Xu."
Xu Qiuqian shook her head.
"No problem."
Let them be proud for a while.
She looked at this lucky lot with great interest. It was indeed quite interesting, especially because one had to send spiritual power towards it, and it would only choose one among those who sent spiritual power towards it. This was also quite interesting.
At this time, the steward of the Su family threw the best lot into the air.
The people in the hall sent out a stream of spiritual power towards the best fortune sticks, and some even sent out several streams.
The best fortune stick was suddenly enveloped by colorful spiritual power.
“You can stop now!”
After hearing the Su family’s steward’s words to stop them, everyone stopped with regret.
She didn’t know if it was Xu Qiuqian’s illusion, but she always felt that the top-notch fortune stick looked a little darker than before.
Everyone stared at the best fortune stick with burning eyes. The best fortune stick swayed and fell, and finally landed in the hands of a cultivator. During this time, other cultivators tried to reach out to grab it, but their hands were opened by a spiritual power emitted from the jade stick.
He screamed, and when he saw others looking at him, he smiled awkwardly.
Fortunately, everyone is more concerned about who will be chosen by the best fortune.
The best fortune stick was seen swaying, and finally fell on the head of a female cultivator wearing green clothes and an eye patch.
The female cultivator was stunned.
She never thought that the best fortune would choose her.
The steward of the Su family said, "Fellow Daoist, please come up to the stage with the best fortune stick in your hand."
The female cultivator picked up the auspicious lot on her head and went on stage under the gaze of thousands of people.
"Excuse me, what is your name, fellow Taoist?"
"My last name is Yao."
"I wonder what Daoist Yao wants to buy?"
The only remaining eye of the female cultivator lit up slightly, and then hesitated: "Is anything really possible?"
"certainly."
"I want three ambergris."
The ambergris fruit is called the ambergris fruit because its fruit body emits a faint ambergris scent. Eating the ambergris fruit can brighten the eyes. It is said that if a person with eye damage eats it, the three eyes can be restored, of course, the premise is that the eyeballs are still there.
This thing is not rare, but the ambergris fruit is difficult to find. It is on a cliff in the northeast of Xuanyun Continent.
However, this effect has only been heard of, and no one has actually achieved it. After all, that cliff is very dangerous and only cultivators who have established their foundation can go there.
I didn't expect this first one to be so difficult.
The monks in the hall were talking about it.
"I've also heard of that dragon's bergamot fruit. I heard that a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage once went to pick it, but he never came back and there's no news of him since."
“It depends on whether the Su family has any in stock.”
"I hope so, because one of my Taoist partner's eyes was damaged due to pollution in a secret realm. If there is one, I will definitely buy it!"
Fellow Daoist Yao looked at the steward of the Su family with hope.
Almost everyone turned their eyes to the Su family's steward.
The Su family's steward looked at Xiao Pingyue calmly.
"Since this is the first competition, let's start with the Xiao family."
If the Xiao family can't afford it, it will naturally be the Su family.
When everyone saw the steward of the Su family looking so confident, they knew that the Su family had the ambergris fruit.
Beside him, Xiao Pingyue whispered to Xu Qiuqian, "The Xiao family has one, but it was sold three years ago, and there is only one."
Xu Qiuqian nodded.
Enter the Void Mall and find the Ambergris Fruit, one for 300 points.
I bought three and then left the Void Mall.
The Su family's steward seemed polite but was actually very proud and said, "What? If your Xiao family doesn't have it, you will have to admit defeat in this first competition."
Xu Qiuqian smiled slightly.
A box appeared in her hands.
"Look what this is?"
As soon as the words fell, the box opened.
A strong scent of ambergris suddenly wafted out of the box, and the fragrance spread instantly, so that all the monks in the hall could smell it.
It's actually the Ambergris?! (End of this chapter)
