Chapter 164: Ten Million Spirit Stones

{You put too much trust on us} afraid of interrupting the atmosphere, Hua Xian'er sends a telepathic message to Wu Xiaotian, causing the young man to smile assuringly at her as he replies.{You and your family is more than worthy of it} he said as he recalls all the time the lady as well as her family helps him, appreciating everything that they did for him as he thought that it is normal for powerful people to not help ones far beneath them, which is truly a great simplification of the harshness of this world's society.

Receiving his reply, Hua Xian'er's heart couldn't help but skip a beat, the smiling face of her sworn brother turn lover making her fall even deeper into him, making her avert her gaze as she starts feeling the sudden rush of blood and heat towards her face, her cheeks extremely flushed from the feeling she's currently experiencing.

As they continue their warm, familial conversations, the competition outside is getting more and more intense, the price of the object already thrice of the original price, the young masters and ladies of the top tier force starting to participate from now on.

"Ten million spirit stones…" a languid, alluring voice sounded out of one of the private rooms, not so loud as to produce echoes in the building, yet so impactful that it produces echoes in the crowd's mind and heart.

"T-ten million!!??"

"Oh my god!! Just how rich is that lady for her to buy the jade slip for ten million spirit stones!??"

"We have no chance of competing for this treasure brothers, the great people want it as well!!!"

"T-ten million spirit stones… any other people willing to bid higher than the lady in that private room?" hearing the amount of spirit stones coming out of the alluring voice's mouth, even the host of the auction couldn't help but stutter in disbelief as she never expected the price of the jade slip to go that far, making her wonder just what kind of force supports this lady.

As silence ensues in the crowd, the verdict about who will acquire the first jade slip is decided, the languid voice resounding through the building again as she said something.

"Su Tian, I'll see you in the Golden Spirit Pool" the voice said before disappearing again to give way for the auction to continue.

"That must be the young lady you enjoy exchanging pointers with, right? Is it Zi Yu'er?" moving her hands to circle around her son's neck, Su Meiyao asked as she turns around her head to face him, reaching out to peck his chin after speaking.

"Mhm, what's your opinion about her?" watching his mother acting like that, Wu Xiaotian couldn't help but find her really cute.

"Mama don't really know yet, but you feel comfortable with her baby, so mama thinks that we will get along well just like with Xian'er and Sister Li" she answered before directing her gaze back to the stage again, seemingly waiting for other voices to emerge.

"Ten million spirit stones" another feminine voice said, this one sounding ethereal and fleeting, like a phoenix passing by with speed near imperceptible to the mortal eye.

"That's Feng Qing?" Jiang Xinyue asks to confirm as she already pretty much guessed it based on the way the voice speaks compared to the way her dear grandson describes her.

"Indeed, she seems to be a really good girl, but communication doesn't seem to be her forte" he answered as he recalls the first time they encounter each other, even him who prided himself quite a bit for being able to accurately read all the people he encountered mistaking her for a cold and arrogant lady, his assumptions proven to be completely wrong as she starts opening up to him.

"Ten million spirit stones" another voice resounded, this one seemingly more gender neutral and amiable, as if a good friend that you can approach anytime, everywhere.

After another moment of silence, the third jade slip is sold as well, causing another commotion from the crowd, currently discussing the identity of the three people. Sёarᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Those are most likely geniuses that participates in the Crescent Moon Secret Realm as well, but what exactly are their identities?"

"Those three are most likely Heavenly Bliss Pavilion's Zi Yu'er, Heavenly Phoenix Sect's Feng Qing and Dao Seeking Mountain's Dao Xuanyuan, they are the only people who seems to come into contact and form good connection with Su Tian in that secret realm after all"

"Zi Yu'er and Dao Xuanyuan is understandable as everyone witnesses how the concluded their fight in a friendly manner, but haven't you heard that Feng Qing pretty much refuses to comment about him ever since their fight?"

"You know nothing, I saw with my own eyes how that cold phoenix lady shyly bid Su Tian farewell before they return home"

"That Feng Qing? Shyly? Brother, are you sure your eyes are not tricking you?"

As the young people in the crowd discusses about the identities of the people in the private rooms, another jade slip is also sold, this one going at a relatively lower price compared to the previous three, only reaching an amount of six million spirit stones.

"This is the last one of the five, like the previous ones, we start with one million spirit stones and accepts increment no lower than ten thousand spirit stones, let us start…" the host said, prompting the people still hopeful of snatching the last jade slip to start bidding, the richer ones starting to smile as they thought that the geniuses backed by top tier forces are already gone from the competition, only for their eyes to widen as a new voice comes out of another private room, this one feminine, the youth obvious in her voice as her bubbly and curious tone laced her words.

"Ten million spirit stones" the lady said, causing the other competitors to shake their head in dismay, mocking themselves for not being rich enough to compete with this girl.

"This is a really good tool" observing the jade slip in the stage, a gorgeous mature lady accompanying the lady that just placed her bid speaks, causing the young lady to nod her head repeatedly as excitement rushes through her entire body since this is the first time she experienced all these things in her life.

"Mhm~~~ I read about arrays during my study time, and I heard that it's really hard to set up one, and creating a small, portable array is practically an impossible feat for our current techniques" the young lady explained to the mature beauty, making the mature beauty smile as she already knows full well the things that the young lady is talking about.

'It's good that my baby is taking interest into something other than cultivation… I hope that the young man rumored to create that participate in the Golden Spirit Pool so that my baby can have a chance to meet him' the mature beauty said as she moves her hands to pat the young lady's hair, the young lady enjoying the sensation immensely.

'This is a good tool I can use to escape with mother' the young lady thought to herself as she looks at the mature beauty patting her head, thinking about ways to use the jade slip to their advantage.
