Chapter 123 Is it a proxy? Xu Hui was curious and looked at Wei Mubai...
Xu Hui was very curious and looked at Wei Mubai, asking for his opinion.
Wei Mubai always gives her different ideas and perspectives, which allows her to understand him better and learn a lot.
But before he could say anything, he saw a look of deep thought in his eyes. "What's wrong?"
"That man in black robe gives me a familiar feeling?" Wei Mubai whispered.
Upon hearing this, Wei Muheng turned around and asked in surprise, "Do you know him?"
"I'm not sure. His method of isolating his aura is indeed superb. If you don't use your spiritual sense, you won't be able to see it for the time being," Wei Mubai said.
Wei Muheng thought for a moment and said, "Then forget it."
When people come here like this, they intend to conceal their identity. No matter what the reason is, it is the customer's freedom.
To ensure customer privacy, the Wei family deliberately chose to hold the auction within a space artifact, intentionally shielding it from observation. Otherwise, with so many high-level cultivators present, how would the lower-level cultivators dare to bid? Aren't they afraid of being targeted?
Within this magical instrument, only the elders of the Wei family and their brothers can detect the visitor.
But this is the Wei family's home ground after all, and they will not take the initiative to break the rules.
In order to reassure the monks, they will be given a high-level teleportation talisman when they come in. No matter when they want to leave, they can teleport away directly to a location of their choice, even thousands of miles away.
This can prevent those who are interested in killing and stealing treasures to the greatest extent possible.
The conversation between the two aroused the curiosity of the Wei family. They all looked downstairs, wondering who the black-robed monk was. Even Wei Mubai, who had a photographic memory, didn't recognize him.
Since he said he was familiar with it, he must have seen it before, but he couldn't remember it. This is his ability!
Xu Hui was also very curious. Could it be that some big shot deliberately chose the first floor lobby to hide his identity?
The female cultivator was tricked by the man in black robes. She hesitated for a while, unwilling to give up, and cautiously quoted a price of 31,000.
"Thirty-five thousand!" The man in black robe was as steady as a rock, his voice so smooth without any fluctuations, like a wooden sculpture.
Coupled with that strange voice, those who don’t know would think it’s a puppet.
puppet?
Xu Hui lowered her body and asked, "Could it be a controlled puppet, or a substitute or something like that?"
The substitute in the inheritance cave was so realistic that others might be able to do the same.
Wei Mubai didn't say anything, but didn't deny the possibility.
The female cultivator's face turned pale, knowing that her plan had been completely exposed. She would not succeed if she continued to pester him. She glared at him unwillingly and sat down angrily.
In this way, no one could compete with the man in black robe. The first auction item was sold for 35,000 medium-grade spirit stones, which was a very high premium.
The prices of the next five were higher than the last, with the highest being 42,000 and the lowest being 38,000.
Just from this one item, he earned a full 240,000 medium-grade spirit stones.
Wei Muheng turned around with a smile, "Is my sister-in-law satisfied?"
Xu Hui was stunned. "Give them all to me?"
"Of course, the four that stayed in the family will be counted as your contribution and will be credited to your account in the form of points. The profits from these six will naturally belong to you as well." Wei Muheng nodded.
Xu Hui smiled, "Thank you, big brother."
There were more than a dozen Moon Foxes in her space, but Wei Muheng only took away ten. She thought the remaining Moon Foxes were her reward, but it turned out that they were all!
She looked at Wei Mubai jokingly, "You don't have a cent, do you want me to give you 10,000 spirit stones?"
Wei Mubai raised his eyebrows, "If you don't even give me a small change, then all my hard work will be in vain."
"Okay, okay, I'll give you 40,000," Xu Hui said pretending to be generous.
"What about me, sister-in-law? Isn't it said that whoever sees it gets a share? Don't just care about your second brother and forget about me, your younger sister," Wei Muyan teased with a smile.
"No problem, I'll give you half. We're good friends after all," Xu Hui winked at her. "It's definitely closer than someone else."
Wei Muyan laughed out loud and challenged Wei Mubai, "Second brother, in my sister-in-law's eyes, you are not as good as me."
Wei Mubai glanced at her indifferently, and that ambiguous look made Wei Muyan shudder all over. She hid behind Wei Muheng and continued to provoke him.
"Heh," Wei Mubai sneered, "I've already made a fourth-grade Nine-Bend Spiritual Pill that can temper your body. Take one a day until the pill is formed!"
Wei Muyan widened her eyes in disbelief, "Aren't four enough?"
Four is already the limit of tempering. Any more would just be a waste and would have no effect.
"I've improved it. As long as you take it continuously, you can constantly temper your body. If you eat enough, it can be comparable to the effect of a thunder tribulation." Wei Mubai's voice was very flat, as if he was talking about something ordinary, but the Wei family members behind him all looked at him with admiration, as fanatical as modern fans.
Even the elders of the Wei family showed expressions of shock and joy.
Not only were they shocked by the effect of the improved Nine-Bend Elixir, but they were also delighted with his extraordinary talent. He could improve the difficult formula of the Nine-Bend Elixir just by saying so, and even broke through the limit of tempering, making the elixir always effective. He was truly a genius among the celestial beings.
Only Wei Muyan felt as if the sky had fallen!
Tempering the body, how can it not hurt!
Even though the effect is not as great as that of a thunder tribulation, it is still a pain that penetrates deep into the bone marrow. Originally, she only needed to endure it four times, but after her second brother's improvement, she has to endure it once a day!
It's like the sky is falling and the earth is breaking. I regret it so much!
She quickly pulled Wei Muheng's sleeve and said pitifully, "Brother, I'm afraid of pain!"
Wei Muheng smiled at him reassuringly, "It's okay, you've gotten used to it anyway."
Wei Muyan's vision went dark. Was this even human language? What did she mean by "she's used to it"?
It was because she had felt pain too many times before that she didn't want to feel pain again, so she quickly looked at her parents.
Both the head of the Wei family and Madam Wei looked away guiltily. It was not that they did not want to help Yan'er. Mu Bai was obviously doing this for her own good, so he specially researched and improved the formula of the Nine-Bend Elixir.
Otherwise, even if they all reach the Jindan stage, they won’t be able to use it, right?
Wei Muyan gritted her teeth, knowing that they were unreliable. She could only look at Xu Hui pitifully, her voice soft and sweet, and she acted coquettishly in a voice that she could not resist at all, "Sister-in-law, look at my second brother, he only knows how to bully me. You must take charge of this for me!"
Xu Hui trembled all over. No, it was too sweet, too sweet. She couldn’t resist it!
"That," he whispered, trying to plead.
Wei Mubai smiled at her, his voice pleasant, magnetic and with a hint of temptation, "I'm doing this for her own good. Now that she's suffering in installments, the thunder tribulation won't be so hard to endure."
Xu Hui: ...
She looked at Wei Muyan apologetically. It was not that she had no principles to compromise, nor was it that she was seduced by Wei Mubai's voice, really!
This is indeed good for Wei Muyan's cultivation. Before forming the elixir, he can temper his body better and more perfectly, so that he can go further and more easily afterwards.
When Wei Muyan saw this, she immediately realized that she had no hope and her second brother was determined to torment her.
She couldn't help but reveal a resentful look, and dragged out her tone, "Sister-in-law, you can't do this. How can you let your second brother control you? You should stand up straight."
Xu Wei laughed dryly, looked apologetic at her, and quickly shrank behind Wei Mubai, not daring to look at her miserable expression again.
Wei Mubai was very satisfied. He held Xu Hui's hand and deliberately glanced at Wei Muyan with a calm and powerful look.
But in Wei Muyan's eyes, it was a complete provocation, and she couldn't help but grit her teeth.
Xu Hui covered her face with her hands and pretended not to notice anything.
When the others saw this, they all looked up and down, ignoring the childish behavior of the second young master and third young lady in front of them.
The auction downstairs is still going on. After the Moon Shadow Fox, the second item for auction is the Longevity Pill!
Following Wei Jianbai's loud announcement, the entire space seemed to be instantly tightened by an invisible force, and everyone's eyes were focused on the slowly pushed out wooden tray, on which rested a crystal clear pill emitting a faint glow - the Longevity Pill.
"Dear guests, what I'm presenting to you next is the legendary rare treasure that can prolong life and strengthen the body—the Longevity Pill!" Wei Jianbai's voice echoed in every corner of the hall, every word filled with passion and temptation. "It's made from the essence of the longevity carnation. One pill can extend your life by 100 years!"
As soon as the words fell, the audience erupted in exclamations and discussions.
Some monks stood up excitedly, their eyes flashing with greed and desire; while more of them looked solemn. This was an inestimable treasure for the monks, especially those whose lifespan was about to end.
A hundred years is enough for him to go out and try his luck, looking for an opportunity to break through a small realm, so that he can increase his lifespan and continue practicing.
The longevity pill is particularly useful for cultivators in the foundation-building stage. With an extra hundred years, as long as they don't waste it, there is a chance to form a pill. After forming the pill, things will be completely different, and the lifespan will be directly increased by 500 years.
Therefore, no matter what level of cultivators, they all need this longevity pill. Even if they cannot use it themselves, there are elders in the family who are nearing the end of their lives. Preparing one more pill means a glimmer of hope.
"The starting price is 100,000 medium-grade spirit stones!" Wei Jianbai announced loudly. As soon as he finished speaking, several eager buyers competed to bid, and the price quickly climbed like a snowball.
"One hundred and fifty thousand!"
"Two hundred thousand, I must get this longevity pill!"
"Two hundred and fifty thousand, my friends, please give me some face."
Bidding echoed incessantly, filling the air with a tense and exciting atmosphere. Many powerful families and sects joined the fray, each bid like a boulder dropped into a tranquil lake, stirring up ripples.
At this moment, the strange voice sounded again, calm but not to be ignored, "Five hundred thousand."
As soon as this offer was made, the entire auction hall fell silent, and everyone turned their eyes to the man in black robe.
However, he remained calm and motionless.
Among them, an old man in the Foundation Establishment Stage was so angry that his eyes turned red. His hair had turned white, his life span was coming to an end, and his cultivation had reached the critical point, but he had been unable to break through.
He had tried to buy some liquor from the Wan family before, but it had no effect. He could only sigh at his bad luck. He came here originally to accompany the young lady, but he didn't expect to be lucky enough to come across the longevity elixir.
Taking it can extend his lifespan by a hundred years. He doesn't have to worry about his lifespan in the short term and can focus on finding opportunities for breakthroughs.
But this person simply doubled the price, causing his budget to be completely insufficient.
The longevity pill is precious. Two hundred and fifty thousand is already a high price, and three hundred thousand is the limit. At least it is not something a foundation-building cultivator like him can afford.
He had no choice but to give up, watching his chance of survival slip away, and sat down dejectedly.
At this moment, the girl next to him, who was covering her face with a veil, spoke softly, "510,000!"
The old man suddenly looked at his young lady and said in a trembling voice, "No, we can't. We finally heard that among the items auctioned by the Wei family this time is a rare and effective elixir like Yangyan Quhan Dan. We can't wait any longer. We must cure your body first!"
The girl tilted her head slightly, "Don't worry, Uncle Wang, I have prepared enough spirit stones."
"But the Yangyan Quhan Pill is precious," and we don't know how much it will cost. We can't waste it here!
"He didn't raise the price anymore," the girl waited for a moment, but didn't hear any shouting. She looked at the man in black robe in confusion, not understanding why the other party didn't raise the price anymore after she only raised 10,000?
She had originally planned to raise the price to 800,000 yuan to buy it. Uncle Wang had taken care of her since she was a child and was her relative. There was no way she would give up if there was a chance for him to survive.
As a result, the man in black robe did not raise the price. Why?
The fact that he can directly double the price shows that he is not short of spirit stones, right?
