Chapter 96.4

IWM, ch . 96 . 4

However, if the first item was already of this quality, then one could imagine, just how valuable would be following items . It seemed that the level of today’s auction was indeed incomparable to previous ones . It was definitely worth a trip coming here today!

Many of the guests looked at the auctioned item, their eyes alight with desire .

Noticing this reaction, Liu Pinyan maintained his composure and calmly continued: “After appraisal was done by our Auction House, we can verify that this core of the level six Stormbird has no loss of energy . As long as its energy refined by a cultivator, it will undoubtedly bring an ample benefit to the owner’s cultivation . Of course, if it’s used as an enhancement for a weapon, the weapon’s strength will be multiplied . ”

“Now, the bidding for this item begins . The starting bid for the core of sixth level Stormbird is 100 000 gold coins . ”

The currency of the entire mainland consisted of silver coins, gold coins, and purple gold coins . 100 silver coins equaled 1 gold coin, and 100 gold coins equaled 1 purple gold coin .

The annual expenditure of an average household was around a thousand gold coins .

“200 000 gold coins,” as soon as Liu Pinyan’s voice fell, people started bidding eagerly .

“250 000 gold coins . ”

“300 000 gold coins . ”

Bids followed each other closely . But most of those bids came from the hall: heads of small households or loose cultivators . Guests in the VIP-rooms had yet to spare a glance .

In the end, the core of Stormbird was sold to a head of a small household for 350 000 gold coins .

Murong Qingyan looked at the unfolding scene with a raised eyebrow . She didn’t expect that in this world there were so many rich people! Even a head of small household could take out hundreds of thousands of gold coins to get a core of a demonic beast .

Obviously, Murong Family was one of the Four Great Families and their wealth was certainly tremendous . Yet, in all these years, Murong Family likely hadn’t even spent even a thousand gold coins on the former Murong Qingyan! Apparently, this Murong family indeed took a good care of her, ah! And the first chance they got, they were in a hurry to settle accounts with her .

“Master, what are you thinking about?” After auction started, Little White lost interest in the snacks and nestled in Murong Qingyan’s arms, so once he noticed that she became absent-minded and disconcerted, he couldn’t keep himself from asking .

“It’s nothing,” Murong Qingyan shook her head gently and instantly put on a slight smile: “Just seeing these people bid for items, I suddenly thought that I had really asked for too little of a compensation when I treated Qiuyuan Yi back then . ”

“It was only because it was the first time!” Little White jumped up on her laps, once he heard Murong Qingyan’s words: “Master, next time you treat somebody, your rewards shouldn’t be so low, ok? Because last time you’ve almost died, yet, you still didn’t get a better compensation . ”

“Alright, alright, those are the things of the past,” seeing Little White’s angry appearance with his fur standing on its ends, Murong Qingyan shook her head in mirth: “Each time this is mentioned, you have the same exaggerated reaction . What do you say, we continue watching the auction, m?”

As the auction went on, the bidding grew more and more intense . At first, only the guests in the lower hall participated in the bidding war, but soon those from the VIP-rooms also took part in it .  

Looking at the auction below, a thought flashed in Murong Qingyan’s eyes and she swiftly raised her hand to press the bell .

Very soon, a young servant girl entered the room . Murong Qingyan instructed her in a low voice .

After listening to Murong Qingyan’s orders, a servant girl had a strange expression on her face but, still, she respectfully nodded and left the room .
