Dual Cultivation: Ying Yang is way to Chaos-Chapter 265: Auction

Bai Lian sighed inwardly but nodded, "I see, it’s alright... tell me about yourself"

Bai Lian just talked casually before taking her leave.

Huo Meiling sighed and looked at Fu Zhen, "Let’s not mention senior brother’s name while we are in this establishment"

Fu Zhen nodded. He didn’t want to mess up something so he listened to her. After going through the outer sect he had become quite humbled.

The treatment he got before Huo Meiling came to meet him was not something he had imagined going through before he arrived at this sect.

"We welcome everyone. Let’s begin the auction..."

A sweet melodious voice echoed through the auction hall as a woman wearing a beautiful laced robe with a veil appeared on the stage.

After it began Huo Meiling and Fu Zhen just became spectators as one item after another began selling at high prices. They had never been to such a highly reputed auction house.

After a few items later the pills they had brought for auction came. The woman only brought out two pill bottles first.

"Ladies and gentlemen these are Soul Essence Restoration pills of grade 4. They are of peak stage and their quality is peak tier but the most important part is that they are created by the same senior alchemist who had created the Core Formation pills we auctioned off a few months ago..."

Hearing that some of them remembered which pills she was talking about as they were quite famous and sought after but Skycloud Auction Pavilion never sold them again.

"Are these pills similarly potent?" One of the customers sitting in a VIP chamber spoke.

"Indeed they are," the woman nodded.

"Does this mean that you are in contact with him now? Can we get to know who this senior is?" The man spoke again. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Everyone wanted to have a close connection with an alchemist of that level. Specifically those big powers with some influence were eager to meet him.

The woman shook her head, "Unfortunately no. Now let the bidding start. The starting price is 2400 medium-grade spirit stones. No less than 100 medium-grade spirit stones should be increased per bid..."

Everyone sighed at her no and started the bidding.

"2500"

"2600"

Slowly the bid reached 4000 spirit stones and Huo Meiling and Fu Zhen were stunned inwardly.

"4100"

...

Only after reaching 4100 did the bid slow down.

"4200"

...

"4200 going once, twice... sold"

Two pills were sold for 4200 spirit stones and if this continued then wouldn’t they be carrying about 25,000 spirit stones? They were now scared to even reach the sect.

The pills really were quite sought after and they ended up being sold near 4000 spirit stones per batch.

In the end when Huo Meiling and Fu Zhen ended up holding 25,300 spirit stones even after a little deduction from the auction pavilion.

The maid assured them that their identity was hidden so no one would know and they could safely make their way back.

Huo Meiling and Fu Zhen nodded and immediately scurried over to the sect. Only when they entered inside the gate did they relax.

"This mission seems dangerous now..." Huo Meiling shook her head.

"Yes I think we should ask for more spirit stones from senior brother Lin. Given how much he earns he might give them to us..." Fu Zhen was really tempted seeing so many spirit stones.

"No. A hundred spirit stones is already too much, don’t be greedy" Huo Meiling declined immediately.

"Ok ok I was just joking ", Fu Zhen immediately backed off. He was a little afraid of Huo Meiling after sleeping with another woman without her permission.

Huo Meiling didn’t say anything and they returned to their cave abode.

...

In the evening Huo Meiling arrived at the spirit field. Lin Feng stopped his cultivation and looked at her, "Was everything fine?"

Huo Meiling took out the spirit stones from her storage bag and placed them on the table in front of Lin Feng, "Not really. It was just an eye-opener for us. There was one thing though. Someone inside the auction pavilion was asking your name..."

Lin Feng wasn’t much surprised. It was normal that the old man might be interested in his identity. He took out the pills for tomorrow and passed them to Huo Meiling.

"Her name was Bai Lian. I politely declined and she didn’t mention it again. She didn’t seem a bad person to me..." Huo Meiling took the pills and said.

Lin Feng was surprised a little. It seemed somehow Bai Lian had reached some conclusions. Although it didn’t matter even if she found his identity as she had taken an oath to not mention it to anyone, "I see. You did well not mentioning it. Here take this..."

Lin Feng passed her 200 spirit stones instead of 100. Huo Meiling was surprised, "Senior brother Lin it’s too much"

Lin Feng waved his hands, "Don’t worry about it. It’s nothing much."

Huo Meiling nodded. It really wasn’t much if she saw it from his perspective, "Then I will take my leave."

Lin Feng thought for a moment and stood up, "Let me drop you to the inner sect."

These two mountains were quite big. Even with her cultivation realm it might affect her a little.

Huo Meiling hesitated a little but nodded. It wasn’t like there was anything left which he hadn’t seen or touched.

Lin Feng didn’t stand on ceremony after he got her nod. He caught her by the waist and pulled her into his arm before flying up.

Huo Meiling bit her lips and buried her face in his chest to hide her face as she felt bashful being seen like that in his arms who was not her partner.

Lin Feng himself didn’t want to create too many rumours as him being seen with any woman like that would definitely create one so he flew higher and faster and reached the mountain top shortly and left Huo Meiling on top which was always empty.
