1545 Mo Xiao Intervenes
The graceful and elegant female attendant carried a transparent box as she slowly ascended the high platform in her high heels. In the transparent box, there was a white jade plate. There was no soil on the plate, only a ball of spiritual power.
The Bone Nurturing Grass grew in that ball of spiritual energy.
Because the Bone Nurturing Grass had long gone extinct, the auction organizers could only use spiritual energy to nurture it.
This thing was extremely precious, so raising it required a huge sum of money.
The sooner someone bought it, the better.
!!The Bone Nurturing Grass on the jade plate was about a meter tall, similar to a sesame seed stick planted in a farmer’s vegetable field. Even the bone nurturing granules on it were the size of sesame seeds.
If this Bone Nurturing Grass was inserted into the sesame seed, field even the farmers probably wouldn’t be able to tell if it was real or fake. Yu Huang thought to herself, “No wonder the administrator of Ascension Town used sesame seeds to fool Mr. He.”
“The starting price of auction item number 12 is 500,000 spirit stones!”
The starting price of one stalk was as high as 500,000 yuan. An expert like Prime Emperor Divine Miracle would probably never have the chance to get an item from the Green Senna Auction in his life.
Which people in the cultivation world were the richest?
They were either refiners or pharmacists.
The former was paid to help people refine Spirit Tools, while the latter was paid to help people refine spirit herbs. They were all professions that accumulated wealth like crazy. The poorest people in the cultivation world were ascetic Beast Tamers.
As expected, the people who dared to bid on the next item were all pharmacists.
Usually, when the Green Senna Auction auctioned Spirit Grass, the bidders were all pharmacists. The Beast Tamer experts knew very well that Spirit Grass would fall into the hands of a powerful pharmacist in the end. They didn’t want to offend these rich pharmacists, so they didn’t participate in the bidding.
“Three million spirit stones!”
In the blink of an eye, the bidding price of this spirit stone rose to three million spirit stones.
“3.1 million.”
“3.2 million.”
…
Yu Huang listened with an impassive expression and didn’t participate in the bidding.
Jing Jiaren glanced at Yu Huang repeatedly and couldn’t help but feel puzzled.
Could it be that Yu Huang’s goal wasn’t this Bone Nurturing Grass?
The Bone Nurturing Grass was indeed a good thing, but when the price of this thing exceeded their budget, it became something they could no longer afford.
Gradually, fewer and fewer people participated in the bidding.
In the end, only Master Lan Yang, who had rushed over from the distant Pharmaceutical Continent, and a pharmaceutical master called Master Bitter Wave were still participating in the bidding.
The two of them were determined to get this Bone Nurturing Grass. Neither of them was willing to give up.
When Master Lan Yang shouted the price, he was gnashing his teeth. It was obvious that the price of the Bone Nurturing Grass had already exceeded his budget. However, at this point, the essence of their competition was no longer the Bone Nurturing Grass itself, but the reputation, dignity, and the pride of the continent they belonged to.
When she heard that the bidding price was as high as 8.2 million, Yu Huang couldn’t help but click her tongue. “Tsk, how crazy.”
Mo Xiao maintained a smile on his face as he said, “People have to do something stupid at least once in their lives.”
Yu Huang looked at Mo Xiao in surprise.
Mo Xiao raised his fox eyes and asked Yu Huang, “Why are you looking at me like that?”
Yu Huang held back her laughter and said, “The first time I saw you, you were standing under the roof of the top floor of the Divination Tower. You were wearing a white crane outfit while looking down at Jingdu City with a disdainful expression. When I saw you, I felt as if I had seen an immortal from the heavens. After meeting you a few times, I always felt that you were a high and mighty figure. It’s quite shocking that such a down-to-earth comment came from your mouth.”
Mo Xiao’s words were quite down-to-earth.
Mo Xiao smiled. “At that time, I was the Grand State Master, so I had to pretend to be mysterious. Without my identity as the Grand State Master I would just be me, an ordinary man. If you want to say that I’m different from others, I’m probably just better-looking?”
Mo Xiao revealed a rare mischevious side.
When Yu Huang heard Mo Xiao praise himself, she found it quite unbelievable. “No wonder Godmother has deep feelings for you. Turns out that you actually has such a personality in private.”
Mo Xiao said mysteriously, “In front of your godmother, I have more sides than this.” When he thought of She Ying, a smile appeared on his lips. “In this world, only your godmother has seen my most unique side.”
They were all adults, so it was impossible for Yu Huang not to understand what Mo Xiao was implying. She hurriedly covered her ears and pretended to be bashful as she said, “You’re such a hooligan. I won’t listen.”
“Tsk.” Mo Xiao laughed. Then, he suddenly raised his right arm and extended his slender fingers that were like jade chopsticks. He bowed elegantly as he said, “Mo Xiao of the Fox Clan is willing to bid 10 million spirit stones.”
Boom!
Everyone looked at Mo Xiao in unison. Even Yu Huang looked at Mo Xiao in shock.
This auction was originally between Master Lan Yang and Master Bitter Wave, but Mo Xiao suddenly stepped in and broke the stalemate. Master Lan Yang and Master Bitter Wave were shocked. Then, the two of them couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief.
Phew!
Fortunately, someone took over. Otherwise, one of them would have had to bleed.
The two of them were very stubborn. They knew very well that the Bone Nurturing Grass wasn’t worth eight to nine million spirit stones at all. However, in order to defend their pride, the two of them continued bidding. When they raised the bidding price to nine million, both of them felt uneasy.
In the end, one of them would definitely take the initiative to withdraw. The one who withdrew would definitely lose face. The one who won could only grit his teeth and bite the bullet to pay.
No matter what, it was an extremely harmful thing for them.
However, Mo Xiao suddenly interfered and successfully resolved this awkward situation. When Master Lan Yang and Master Bitter Wave looked at each other and realized that they were both relieved, they understood what each other meant.
Hmph, he was just a poor person, yet he still wanted to pretend to be a rich man!
The two of them snubbed each other. Then, Master Lan Yang cupped his fists at Mo Xiao and said, “Since Prime Emperor Mo Xiao is willing to bid for this Bone Nurturing Grass at such a high price, I think this Bone Nurturing Grass is very useful to you. In that case, I will be sensible and take the initiative to withdraw from the competition to fulfill Prime Emperor Mo Xiao’s wish.”
As soon as Master Lan Yang finished speaking, Master Bitter Wave also cupped his fists and said, “Prime Emperor Mo Xiao came from thousands of miles away to travel the Divination Continent. As a person of the Divination Continent, I should compromise. Since Prime Emperor Mo Xiao wants this Bone Nurturing Grass, I will be sensible and stop participating in the competition. Master Lan Yang, let’s give this grass to Prime Emperor Mo Xiao.”
Master Lan Yang chuckled and said, “I have the same idea as you.”
The two of them, who had been competing fiercely for the Spirit Grass, quickly reached an agreement after finding a way out.
