The middle-aged man looked down at Master Long, seemingly struggling to make a decision, and sighed, "Nephew, what is the point of this? Well then, considering how filial and sensible you are, I’ll help you this time."

"Thank you, Uncle Fu."

Master Long was overjoyed.

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Don’t kneel, get up quickly!"

Master Long stood up, returned to his seat, and asked, "Uncle, do you have any brilliant ideas?"

"Let me think for a moment."

The middle-aged man began to muse.

Time flowed by slowly.

Suddenly!

The middle-aged man’s eyes flashed with a bright light, and he stood up, saying, "Wait a moment, I’ll be right back."

Without waiting for Master Long to respond, he hurried out of the lounge.

In less than a hundred breaths, he returned, holding a delicate and small jade box.

"With this item, success is guaranteed for you."

The middle-aged man sat down with a smile, then pushed the jade box in front of Master Long.

Master Long picked up the jade box hesitantly, opened the lid, initially showing some suspicion in his eyes, but it was quickly replaced by a glint of excitement.

...

At the same time, inside the VIP room.

Qin Feiyang and his companions were chatting idly over tea, waiting for the auction to begin.

Dong!

Finally.

With the sound of a bell, the auction began.

Aside from the various VIP rooms, the outside was already packed with people.

As the bell rang, the previously noisy auction hall instantly quieted down.

Shua!

Next.

A woman in white appeared out of nowhere on the central platform of the auction hall.

Glancing around, the woman in white smiled and said, "I believe most of you are familiar with me, so I won’t introduce myself again; let’s start the auction directly."

With her words!

The woman in white waved her hand, and a tiny ship appeared before her out of thin air, its treasure light faint and its aura astonishing!

"This ship is called the Saint King Vessel, a Holy Artifact that can shield you from sea storms and prevent attacks from Holy Beasts."

"In short, as long as you have it, you can sail unhindered in the ’Outer Sea’..."

The woman in white introduced with a smile.

"Holy Artifact!"

In an instant.

The entire auction hall boiled over.

Qin Feiyang was also taken aback, turning to Wang Youer and saying, "Even Holy Artifacts are being auctioned; isn’t this a bit too extravagant?"

"Such a fuss."

Wang Youer rolled her eyes at him.

Qin Feiyang’s face twitched, utterly looked down upon by this woman.

Seeing Qin Feiyang’s expression, Young Master Hao shook his head with a smile and said, "Brother Mu, this time my sister isn’t deliberately targeting you."

"How so?"

Qin Feiyang frowned.

"Holy Artifacts are precious, but the Trading Pavilion in the Divine City auctions a few every few years."

"So, for people like us from the Divine City, auctioning Holy Artifacts is no longer a rare event."

Young Master Hao laughed.

"I see."

Qin Feiyang nodded in realization.

But even so, it’s still astonishing!

After all, this is a Holy Artifact, comparable to a Nine-Star War Saint, and its value cannot be measured in gold coins.

As if seeing through Qin Feiyang’s thoughts, Young Master Hao smiled lightly and said, "A Holy Artifact indeed cannot be measured in gold coins, and the Trading Pavilion never expected to make money from these Holy Artifacts; they don’t care about such money, it’s purely a business strategy."

Qin Feiyang nodded.

Indeed.

With the wealth of the Trading Pavilion, giving away a few Holy Artifacts wouldn’t matter.

Wang Youer suddenly said, "We must obtain this ’Saint King Vessel’."

"With it, entering Qinghai would be much more convenient for us."

"But the key is, who’s going to pay for it?"

Young Master Hao looked at Wang Youer and Qin Feiyang.

"Why are you looking at me?"

Wang Youer raised an eyebrow.

Young Master Hao shrugged and said, "I don’t have money, so naturally, I’m looking at you."

Claiming the son of the General Tower Master has no money?

If word got out, it would surely be laughed at, but that’s the truth.

Because usually, aside from pocket money, he rarely carried money with him.

And pocket money, obviously not enough to bid on this Saint King Vessel.

"I don’t have any either."

"Even if I had, I wouldn’t pay."

Wang Youer said indifferently.

"Why not?"

Young Master Hao was quite discontent.

We’re all out here for training, so of course, we should share the burden!

"Because of my capability."

"Without me, even if you obtained the Saint King Vessel, it couldn’t be resurrected; without resurrection, the Holy Artifact is worthless."

Wang Youer said calmly.

Young Master Hao was stupefied, then he found himself in a dilemma, and looked at Qin Feiyang, giving a mischievous smile, "Brother, it seems we’ll have to rely on you for this matter."

As an Alchemist, Qin Feiyang, capable of refining supreme pills like the Nine-Bend Yellow Dragon Pill, claiming he had no money would be unbelievable.

But Wang Youer didn’t know that the Nine-Bend Yellow Dragon Pill was refined by Qin Feiyang.

Upon hearing Young Master Hao’s words, she immediately rolled her eyes, saying, "With his shabby appearance, can he afford a Holy Artifact?"

"What do you mean by shabby appearance?"

"I’m telling you, don’t look down on people."

Qin Feiyang’s face darkened.

Wang Youer scoffed, "Then prove it to me!"

"Fine!"

"But I have a condition."

"If I end up buying this Saint King Vessel, on the journey, you have to listen to me and be my maid for two years, at my beck and call."

Qin Feiyang said. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

"You’ve got some nerve, wanting me to be your maid; aren’t you afraid of biting your tongue off?"

Wang Youer glared at him angrily.

"Don’t dare?"

"Turns out you’re nothing special."

Qin Feiyang sneered.

"Who says I don’t dare?"

"I’ll bet with you; I want to see how capable you really are!"

Wang Youer snorted coldly, then looked at the auction hall, saying no more.

Young Master Hao glanced at Wang Youer, then secretly gave Qin Feiyang a thumbs up, chuckling, "Brother, nice move!"

He didn’t doubt Qin Feiyang’s ability in the slightest.

And as soon as Qin Feiyang won, they wouldn’t only regain their voice but also tame this witch.

Thus the journey would naturally be much more peaceful.

Truly killing two birds with one stone.

Qin Feiyang smiled faintly and asked, "I heard the woman mention the Outer Sea, what place is it?"

"You don’t even know that, you’re so lame."

Young Master Hao gave him a helpless look and explained, "Qinghai is made up of two parts, Outer Sea and Inner Sea. Relatively, the Outer Sea is safer, while the Inner Sea is mostly filled with Holy Beasts."

Qin Feiyang nodded.

At this moment.

The woman in white on the stage finished her introduction and immediately added, "The starting bid is ten million, and each bid must not be less than one million, with no upper limit. Now begin!"

"Eleven million."

"Twelve million."

"Thirteen million!"

"..."

"Thirty million!"

"Fifty million!"

"Ninety million!"

"One hundred million!"

"..."

The auction hall immediately resounded with loud shouts, and in less than a hundred breaths, the price broke through the hundred million mark.

People were fighting with red faces and thick necks.

But Qin Feiyang kept calm, quietly watching those who bid furiously.
