Phantom knocked on the barrier of Box No. 5 and said with a fist:
"My boss wants to have a chat with the Rakshasa Palace Master."
After asking Nangong Yu for his opinion, Chen Long replied, "My Palace Master is here today just for the auction. Anyway, all the places in the auction house belong to yours. If the owner of yours is interested in making friends, why not come here and have a chat?"
Phantom went back to ask Xuanyuan Qi for instructions.
Xuanyuan Qi's heart had already flown to Ling Xiang next door, and he didn't care about anything else. "Let's go meet this cold-blooded Luosha Palace Master."
On the way, Meihu was somewhat dissatisfied with the behavior of the Lord of Rakshasa Palace:
"He's acting quite arrogantly on someone else's territory."
Xuanyuan Qi didn't care much: "We are the masters, we should be polite."
Xuanyuan Qi was indeed very polite. He signaled Phantom to knock on the ban, and after getting the consent from inside, he walked in alone.
Seeing this, Nangong Yu told Chen Long to wait outside and brought the freshly brewed tea to the table opposite: "Boss, please."
"How can I let the Lord of Luosha Palace spend money on my territory?" Xuanyuan Qi waved his hand and set out a table of exquisite snacks, all prepared by the auction house for VIPs.
Nangong Yu didn't touch the snacks on the table. He picked up the teacup and took a sip. "Boss, do you want to talk to me about something?"
Xuanyuan Qi said directly: "I want the Blood Flame Tears, Lord Luosha, please name a price."
Nangong Yu was unmoved: "Sorry, my things are only auctioned."
Xuanyuan Qi tried his best to fight for it, but Nangong Yu still refused to give in.
It’s a pity that the Ksitigarbha Vine Fruit in Ling Xiang’s hand has been used to make pills. It seems that he will not be able to get the rare Blood Flame Tears from the Lord of Rakshasa Palace.
"Even if the deal doesn't go through, there's still righteousness. It's a rare opportunity for the Rakshasa Palace Master to visit our auction house. All of the items auctioned by the Palace Master today will be free of commission."
The auction house takes a 10% profit for every item sold, but Xuanyuan Qi waived the commission for the Lord of Luosha Palace, which really shows that he thinks highly of the Lord of Luosha Palace.
"Thank you very much, boss. In the future, if you come to Luosha Temple to do business, you will get a 10% discount."
Xuanyuan Qi gave a 10% discount, and Nangong Yu also gave a 10% discount, which can be considered mutually beneficial.
However, as soon as he returned to his private room, Xuanyuan Qi ordered: "Any item that the Luosha Palace Master likes, as long as it is from our auction house, will be bought back at a high price. If it belongs to someone else, we will raise the price to the highest level, and see if he feels sorry for it."
Phantom worriedly asked, "What if the Rakshasa Palace Master doesn't buy it?"
Xuanyuan Qi said indifferently: "This little money is something I can afford to lose."
Meihu asked, "What if the item that Rakshasa Palace Master likes also suits Madam?"
Xuanyuan Qi thought without hesitation: "Whoever dares to snatch things from my wife, don't let him have an easy time. Do I need to teach you this?"
Phantom nodded immediately: "The Palace Master is right! Palace Master Luosha dared to act so arrogantly on our territory. Today, he will definitely be punished!"
As a platform rose in the center of the auction hall, the graceful auctioneer gently struck the gavel, announcing the start of the auction:
"The first lot of this auction is the top-tier refining material - Blood Flame Tears. Starting price: one Ksitigarbha Immortal Vine Fruit. No bid increases. First bidder wins."
No one expected that the first item to be auctioned would be such a precious refining material, and the auction method would be so unique.
Everyone who sees such good materials wants them, but unfortunately, they don’t have the Ksitigarbha Vine Fruit.
Ling Xiang became interested and asked Jin Bowen: "Uncle Jin, you dare to ask for a Ksitigarbha Immortal Vine Fruit. What kind of good thing is this Blood Flame Tears?"
"Blood Flame Tears, it's rumored to be the tears of a phoenix bathed in fire, reborn. They possess the dual attributes of water and fire and contain infinite vitality. If they can be integrated into a magical weapon, not only will they greatly enhance both the weapon's offensive and defensive attributes, but they can also help the weapon nurture a spirit, transforming it into a spiritual weapon."
Ling Xiang understood: "So, exchanging the Ksitigarbha Immortal Vine Fruit for a Blood Flame Tear is a sure win, right?"
Jin Bowen nodded. "That's right. Although the Ksitigarbha Vine Fruit is also very precious, it is, after all, a fruit grown on a vine. It will eventually mature. However, the Blood Flame Tears are something you can only encounter by chance."
"Exchange with him!" Ling Xiang immediately made the decision and pressed the transaction card in the box.
The auctioneer looked at the screen in front of her and said, "Box number three, Dizi, bids one Dizang Immortal Vine Fruit."
Xuanyuan Qi was very surprised.
He remembered that Ling Xiang had already used her Dizang Vine Fruit to refine the Innate Talent Pill, so why did she still have Dizang Vine Fruit in her hand? Could it be that there was more than one Dizang Vine Fruit?
Xuanyuan Qi asked his own guess: "How many fruits can the Ksitigarbha Immortal Vine produce each time?"
Phantom Shadow and Phantom Fox said they didn't know, and immediately ran to ask the alchemist at the auction house. He then came back with a report: "The Ksitigarbha Immortal Vine only bears fruit once every hundred years, one at a time."
Xuanyuan Qi fell into deep thought: Could it be that these extra Ksitigarbha Immortal Vine Fruits were given to Xiang'er by Helian Xiao?
Xuanyuan Qi couldn't think of any other explanation. Anyway, the thing was already in Ling Xiang's hands, so he was satisfied.
"Tell me, what did Madam do after arriving at the Fuxian Mountains?"
Phantom handed the notebook with the records to Xuanyuan Qi and reported:
"Madam arrived at the Fuxian Mountains and settled in the Tianxia Inn. She then went to Luowang to trade information about the Fuxian Secret Realm and Lingxiao Immortal Soul..."
"Wait a minute!" Xuanyuan Qi's expression suddenly became serious after seeing the record. "Madam exchanged a gift pill for Lingxiao Immortal Soul? Where did that gift pill go?"
"I've checked. The Luosha Palace Master traded the Talent Pill for the Beast King Grass. The Beast King Grass is not much less effective than the Talent Pill. Furthermore, the Luosha Palace Master also gave him a lot of magical weapons. That's why the Luowang brothers agreed to the deal."
Xuanyuan Qi's focus was not here: "So, the Lord of Luosha Palace knew from the beginning that Madam had taken out the Talent Pill. Therefore, he should have guessed that Madam had the Ksitigarbha Immortal Vine Fruit."
Meihu immediately understood: "So, the Palace Master suspects that the Luosha Palace Master took out the Blood Flame Tears just to target Madam?"
Xuanyuan Qi immediately ordered: "Keep an eye on the Blood Flame Tears transaction and report any situation immediately."
Soon someone came to Ling Xiang's box to check the Ksitigarbha Vine Fruit, and confirmed the transaction after checking that it was correct.
However, the Lord of Rakshasa Palace requested to trade in person.
Ling Xiang agreed: "Okay, let's wait until the auction is over."
After hearing the news, Xuanyuan Qi's face darkened. "Give orders. After the auction ends tonight, arrange for someone to rob the Rakshasa Palace Master."
"Huh?" Phantom was shocked. They had never done anything like robbery! Was the Palace Master serious?
"Just leave him some clothes to cover his shame, don't pollute the eyes of passers-by." Xuanyuan Qi's face looked very ugly. Robbery was the lightest thing. The main thing was that the Rakshasa Palace really dared to covet his Xiang'er. He must skin him alive!
For the subsequent items, as long as Ling Xiang liked them, even if Ling Xiang finally withdrew from the bidding, Xuanyuan Qi would arrange for people at the auction house to secretly buy them.
All the main items auctioned by the Rakshasa Temple were sold at sky-high prices.
Gradually, Nangong Yu came to his senses: "This boss is quite stingy. Since he doesn't care about the losses, I will accompany him to the end!"
