Chapter 116: The Auction Begins

The second day.

After an entire day of publicity, Miao Qing complied with Lin Mo’s request and sent the list of all the items to be auctioned to Qi Yueheng, Zhao Gongming, and Bai Wuheng.

At the same time, he wantonly announced that there would be a seventh-level treasure being auctioned in the Lin auction house tomorrow!

Although there were many people who knew that the day of the auction was tomorrow, Lin Mo still got Miao Qing to print out flyers to be distributed. The words “seventh-level treasure” in bold were printed on the flyer. Then, he got Miao Qing to hire hundreds of workers to spread the word in Lin City.

The people who received the flyer had thoughts such as “This is absolutely impossible!”, “This news is fake!”, “You’re lying to me!” and so on!

“Seventh-level treasure? How is this possible?! Brother Liu, why do you think the Lin auction house is boasting that they’re going to auction off a seventh-level treasure tomorrow?”

“This is a lie! A seventh-level treasure could only be auctioned in the Imperial City! The last time they heard the words ‘seventh-level’ was ten years ago. Moreover, there had never been an auction house that had auctioned off a seventh-level treasure in Lin City!”

“I think so too!”

“But the Lin clan has been here for thousands of years. They probably won’t lie to us on purpose!”

“How about we go there and take a look?”

“You’re right. I was planning to buy some goods outside the city tomorrow. Forget it, let’s go there and take a look.”

Among the three major clans, Bai Wuheng was the most in disbelief after receiving the information about the auction items.

He had received the news that the second elder said Lin Huaiyuan had already bought all the auction items in Lin City. It was impossible for him to miss anything.

So, is the news released by Lin Mo true or false?

Looking at the list in his hands, the starting item was a fifth-level treasure. There should be many more high-level treasures. He felt like he was being teased by Lin!

“Bai Yanlang, come in!”

“Father, what’s wrong?” Bai Yanlang asked.

“Go to the accounts room and see how many spiritual stones our Bai clan has to use right now.”

“Father, this will be all for nothing.” Bai Yanlang was a little puzzled.

“Do what I tell you and cut the nonsense!” Bai Wuheng sternly reprimanded.

Qi Yueheng and Zhao Gongming, on the other hand, were full of surprise and joy. They looked at the list of items on the VIP card in their hands as if the future was within their reach.

The appearance of these auction items raised a great amount of hope in their hearts!

…

The next day, at five o’clock in the afternoon.

The magnificent Lin auction hall, which had many seats, was filled to the brim. Quite a few people were standing in the corridor. However, there was still a steady stream of people pouring in from the entrance.

“Tell me, is this for real? What happened to the Lin clan this time? They suddenly want to auction such a powerful item?!”

“I feel that the credibility is very high. The Lin clan has been in Lin City for a long time. There’s no need to lie to us.”

“Quick, look, these are the people from the Xu Feng Regiment!”

“That’s the Xu Feng Regiment commander – Xu Youqing!”

“I heard that a person once killed a demonic beast at the thirteenth-level of the dragon transformation realm in the Dark Night Forest!”

“Do you see that short gown on his waist? I heard that it was made from the skin on the abdomen of that demonic beast!”

“Not only that, look at that long whip on his waist. It’s said that it was made from the spine of that demonic beast!”

As the crowd was discussing, a strong man who looked like an iron tower walked in from the entrance of the Lin auction house. Behind him were over 10 cultivators who were dressed like hunters.

Those people were all members of the Xu Feng Regiment. They were really powerful with over ten fifth-level dragon transformation realm cultivators!

At this moment, under the leadership of Lin Huaiyuan, the senior and junior brothers of the Battle Immortal Sect also came to the Lin auction house.

However, they were sitting in the most luxurious exclusive private room, which could not be compared with those who were sitting in the lobby or even standing in the corridor.

“Impossible! Lu Qian and Yu Shenkong couldn’t have not contacted me for such a long time! Do you think something happened to them?” Eldest senior brother Zhao Liren looked at second senior brother Su Zhican with a gloomy face.

“That’s impossible. Didn’t Junior Brother Lin Huaiyuan say that Lin Mo was only in the beginning stage of the dragon transformation realm? How could he kill Lu Gan and Yu Shenkong who were in the ninth-level of the dragon transformation realm?”

“You’re right. Let’s see what tricks this Lin Mo could play first.”

…

Qi Yueheng and Zhao Gongming had already arrived at the auction house with their clans. Sitting in their private rooms, they could see the entire auction house through the exquisite window.

“Qi Yifei, have you prepared enough spiritual stones?”

“Father, don’t worry. I’ve even pledged some of the shops we have. I’m sure there will be enough spiritual stones!” Qi Yueheng’s son, Qi Yifei, looked at his father and said seriously.

“Hahaha, it’s time for the Qi clan to turn over a new leaf. From now on, I’ll see who dares to look down on our Qi clan in Lin City.”

The same question was asked in the room of Zhao Gongming and Bai Wuheng.

…

There were five private rooms on the second floor of the Lin auction house. The three big clans and the Lin clan each had one room. In the last room, there was a large group of people standing there.

They were the elders and the people in charge of the royal auction house.

Just as the people who had come to participate in the auction started to complain about why the auction had not started yet, Miao Qing, dressed in a long robe, slowly came to the center of the auction stage.

He bowed to everyone and said, “First of all, we welcome everyone from Lin City to participate in the auction held by the Lin auction house!

“Let’s proceed to begin the auction. The first item to be auctioned is – mid fifth-level Spirit Concentration Pill!

“The starting price is 15,000 spiritual stones. Each bid must not be less than 2,000 spiritual stones!”

As soon as Miao Qing finished speaking, he opened a jade box. A refreshing fragrance assailed his nostrils, and the people in the front row who smelled it felt their vital qi circulating more smoothly.

“What?! This is the Spirit Concentration Pill?”

“Quick! Senior Brother, hit me! Did I hear it wrongly?!”

“Is this the legendary Spirit Concentration Pill that can allow people to concentrate and strengthen their control over vital qi?”

“That’s right, you didn’t hear it wrongly! This is the Spirit Concentration Pill!” the people beside him also clenched their fists and said excitedly.
