Is there hope in Chapter 82?
Is there hope in Chapter 82?
Su Yiqing was only surprised for a moment, and her expression quickly returned to calm.
Ye Feng must never let anyone know that he can refine pills that help people advance to the Innate Grandmaster level.
If the news leaks, even the top families in the capital will likely come to compete for it.
Especially with Qi Yuxi by his side, this woman is willing to risk everything.
Su Yiqing leaned against Ye Feng's arm instinctively and whispered, "Little brother, are you serious?"
Ye Feng felt the softness on his arm and smelled a delicate fragrance, which stirred his heart.
"Of course, that's on the condition that we have the materials." Ye Feng pursed his lips.
Refining pills is not difficult for him, but now that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is scarce, finding the materials for refining pills has become the most difficult thing.
"You don't need to worry about that."
Su Yiqing said confidently, "You just need to tell me the names of the medicinal herbs, and I will definitely find them for you."
Then, she changed the subject: "But little brother, don't tell anyone else that you can refine this kind of pill."
"To avoid a situation where someone rushes to buy the materials, making it difficult for my sister to collect them."
"it is good."
Ye Feng didn't think much of it and nodded in agreement.
Su Yiqing's eyes flickered, and she added, "Don't worry, little brother, your older sister won't mistreat you."
"You will not be shortchanged on any of the fees, and you can also make any requests you may have."
Ye Feng's heart stirred, and he really wanted to ask, "Can we really make any request?"
However, fearing that saying so would be too abrupt and affect Su Yiqing's feelings for him, he refrained from asking.
"Sister Qing, it's too formal to talk about fees and conditions."
Ye Feng said with a meaningful smile, "I liked you the moment I saw you, sister. It means we're destined to be together. Don't be so formal with me in the future."
Upon hearing this, Su Yiqing's pretty face flushed red again.
"Bad little brother..."
She nudged Ye Feng with her elbow, then sat up straight again and returned to her original position.
"Is there a chance?"
Ye Feng was secretly delighted. Judging from Su Yiqing's reaction, she didn't seem to be opposed to him. Should he look for an opportunity to take things further?
The cat next to them was stunned by what it saw.
She had been by Su Yiqing's side for several years, when had she ever seen her so shy?
"Oh no, did this rapist drug the young lady?"
Cat secretly resolved to keep a close eye on things and not let Ye Feng succeed easily.
At another table, Qi Yuxi saw that the prices were about right and was about to start bidding when she inadvertently glanced at Su Yiqing.
Upon noticing that she remained calm and showed no intention of bidding, a thought suddenly struck him.
Logically speaking, Su Yiqing would never let go of such a pill that could help someone break through to the Innate Grandmaster level.
Why did she react this way?
"Is there something wrong with the elixir?"
Qi Yuxi thought to herself, but quickly shook her head slightly, thinking it was impossible.
The Jiang family is the largest clan in Zhonghai; they would never sell counterfeit goods and ruin their reputation.
Her eyes swept over Ye Feng beside her, and a thought struck her again. She suppressed her desire to auction the item and decided to observe the situation first.
Seeing that she seemed to have lost interest in the auction, Zhou Wei, standing nearby, asked curiously, "Yu Xi, aren't you going to bid on this pill anymore?"
Qi Yuxi smiled slightly: "I just spent 1.5 billion to buy the Phoenix Vermilion Fruit. I didn't bring much money with me this time, so I won't bid for now."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Wei said nothing more.
She was also very interested in the elixir, and it was better if Qi Yuxi didn't bid, as it would eliminate a strong competitor.
The price had now soared to 700 million.
"One billion!"
Zhou Wei raised her sign and immediately added 300 million, causing the room to fall silent instantly.
The fact that the price was increased by 300 million was shocking, even to the wealthy people present.
In particular, their determined and unwavering momentum instantly dispelled many people's thoughts of competing for it.
Everyone turned to look and saw that it was Zhou Wei who had made the bid, and couldn't help but sigh.
Unlike Su Yiqing and Qi Yuxi, she was a local from Zhonghai, and almost everyone of note knew her.
Although she is the daughter of the Zhou family, she holds a high position within the family and is quite capable.
Now she holds most of the power in the Zhou family, and she has led the family quite well, showing signs of catching up with the Jiang family.
Despite the stares of the crowd, Zhou Wei remained composed and rose to bow to the audience.
"Gentlemen, my Zhou family will take this first batch of pills. Please give me the honor."
Upon hearing this, everyone reacted with varying expressions.
But most people thought about it and realized that since there were still two pills left, there was no need to compete with her and offend the Zhou family.
Seeing that no one objected, Zhou Wei cupped her hands in a gesture of respect to the crowd once again.
Thank you all!
With no competition, Zhou Wei secured the first pill.
Immediately afterwards, the second round of bidding began, and the scene was even more intense than before, with the price quickly reaching one billion.
After making the phone call and receiving his father's support, Wang Haiquan prepared to bid.
But Zhou Wei suddenly intervened, so he had no choice but to wait for the second take, just like everyone else.
Seeing the price soaring too quickly, he became restless. He stood up like Zhou Wei, cupped his hands to the crowd, and said, "Everyone, my Wang family will take this second batch of pills. Please give me face. My Wang family thanks you."
He had assumed that since the Wang family and the Zhou family both belonged to the Three Sects of Zhonghai, they would treat him the same way they treated the Zhou family and give him the second dose of pills.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, someone in the room sneered disdainfully.
"Ridiculous! You think you can just take what you want? Do you think we're just decorations?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Haiquan's face darkened.
Following the sound, they found that the speaker was a burly, bald man.
"What do you mean, sir? Are you disrespecting the Wang family?"
Wang Haiquan stared coldly at the other party, his words filled with threat.
"So what if we don't give it to them?"
The bald, burly man sneered disdainfully, "I'm Fei Peng from the He Sheng Gang. Want to have a go? Let's have a match!"
Upon hearing him announce his name, the crowd was secretly surprised.
Fei Peng, a double-flower red stick of the Wo Shing Gang, is ruthless and vicious, and is the strongest fighting force of the Wo Shing Gang against outsiders.
No wonder they dared to disrespect the Wang family.
Wang Haiquan's expression stiffened; he had naturally heard of Fei Peng's name.
The other party not only has the support of the Hesheng Gang, but is also a cultivator at the Bone Refining Realm.
He dared not offend such a person.
"So you're a Double Flower Red Stick from the Wo Shing Gang. It was all a misunderstanding earlier. My apologies."
Wang Haiquan cupped his hands and smiled apologetically.
Fei Peng glanced at him, then ignored him and turned to the auction stage, shouting, "1.2 billion!"
Upon seeing his offer, the room fell silent once again.
Now that they know his identity, everyone is wary and no one is willing to make any further bids.
Clearly, none of them wanted to offend the Wo Shing Gang.
Unsurprisingly, the second Qi Gathering Pill was pocketed by Fei Peng.
Next is the last batch of pills.
The competition among the participants was even fiercer than the previous two.
Unless someone of exceptionally high status steps forward, people stop showing any consideration for others.
Among them, Wang Haiquan's bid was the loudest. He had a crazy expression on his face and was determined to get this last pill.
soon.
Wang Haiquan bid 1.5 billion, matching the price of Phoenix Zhu Guo.
The moment the price was announced, the room fell silent.
A smug look appeared on Wang Haiquan's face, and his eyes involuntarily glanced at Ye Feng.
"Damn you, just wait until my Wang family trains a Grandmaster of the Innate Realm, then let's see who can protect you!"
