Wasting Money to Become an Immortal-Chapter 41: Losing points

The host could see that there was no need to raise the excitement of the crowd anymore, so he raised his hand to gesture at the pill before saying, "For such a special item, naturally there will be a special price."

Taking a deep breath, he said, "The starting price for this pill will be a hundred mid grade spirit stones and increments must increase by ten mid grade spirit stones each time."

The crowd was surprised to hear this, but not a single one of them rejected this price.

This pill was worth it...

No, this price could be even considered low for the value of this pill.

It was just a low starting price to get the bidding going, the final price would be much greater than this.

But a hundred mid grade spirit stones...

That was equal to how much Lin Fan had spent on that White Frost Jade.

Though when comparing the two, the hundred mid grade spirit stones were more valuable since they were harder to obtain in the first place.

Even though this was the price that was set, the looks on the faces of the people sitting in the crowd all seemed like they were ready to fight. It seemed that everyone was determined to get this pill no matter what it cost them.

So the host pointed at the crowd and said, "Please place your bids now!"

"Two hundred!"

"Three hundred!"

"Five hundred!"

A flurry of bids came in as soon as they were allowed to bid, with each bid going up by at least a hundred mid grade spirit stones.

Just the first bid was already double the starting price and it kept increasing.

It didn’t seem like it was about to stop until someone from the third floor said, "Five thousand."

As soon as the person from the third floor spoke, everyone fell silent.

They all slowly looked up at the third floor, but they looked back just as quickly before giving sighs.

When the people on the third floor bid, they had no choice but to give way to them since the people on the third floor were special. At the same time, the people on the third floor had never bid on anything, which was why they had the chance to get items in the first place.

Since the person on the third floor wanted this, they had to give it up to them.

But there was another voice that said, "Five thousand and ten."

This was a voice that also came from the third floor and it was a soft voice.

The one that spoke before was the voice of a man, but this time it was the voice of a woman.

If one had to guess, the first voice came from the Azure Cloud Sect and the second voice came from Mist Valley.

There was a silence that lingered in the air after this voice rang out as everyone held their breaths. They were scared of breathing too loudly as if they were afraid of attracting attention to themselves.

Even the host remained silent after this bid.

If it was anyone else, he would have continued with the auction regardless of their identity. It was just that the Azure Cloud Sect and the Mist Valley were different.

They were more special than the other guests that had gathered for this auction.

"Five thousand and twenty."

Finally, after a long silence, there was a bid that came from the third floor.

It was the Azure Cloud Sect who made that bid.

But right after this, another bid came from Mist Valley.

"Five thousand and thirty."

The two of them continued their bidding until they reached five thousand and ninety mid grade spirit stones.

Before the Azure Cloud Sect could raise the bid again, the group from Mist Valley said something.

"Our Great Elder would appreciate it if the friends from the Azure Cloud Sect were to give us this pill."

The Azure Cloud Sect group fell silent when they heard this.

There was a long and awkward silence that lingered in the air after the Mist Valley group said this.

In the end, the Azure Cloud Sect group said, "We will bid no longer."

The host let out a sigh of relief when he heard this before quickly finalizing the sale.

When it was done, the voice from the Mist Valley group said, "Our Great Elder thanks everyone for yielding this pill."

Many people didn’t understand what this meant, but there were some that had insider information that did know.

It was said that the Mist Valley Great Elder had overdrawn herself in her cultivation and was only a step away from death...

Perhaps this pill would be enough to save her...

But that was the last thing that I cared about.

That was because I had figured out why this pill looked so familiar to me!

It was because this was my pill in the first place!

Well, it wasn’t exactly my pill since it had come from the system, but it was a pill that I had exchanged for. After exchanging for this pill, I had given it to my little sister Lin Li Zi so that she could use it if something went wrong. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

It was considered a waste since Lin Li Zi’s cultivation was too low to properly use this pill in the first place.

Did someone steal this pill from Lin Li Zi and sell it?

No, that was impossible since she knew better to show off valuable items like this and she had been with his lackeys the entire time. No one would have been able to steal anything from her in the first place.

So the only explanation was that Lin Li Zi had sold this herself.

That was why she had gone off with the lackeys earlier...

However, that still wasn’t my main concern.

If it was just selling it behind my back, I would have been sad that my little sister was going behind my back.

But the worst part was...

"The host has used the items from the system to gain profit. The profit that the host has gained will be deducted as points from the host’s current point value."
