"Senior Sister, we can go to the auction house today."
Yun Li's voice sounded at the right time. Donghwa Yufan grabbed Li Batian and Xiaoqing, who were staring at each other.
Yun Li saw Li Batian at first, and she was a little curious, but maybe because she hadn't seen him for a long time, she felt a lot closer to him.
Li Batian naturally knew Yun Li. When he turned his head and saw an old acquaintance, he thought of Yun Li's cooking skills and was immediately overjoyed.
"Oh, Junior Sister …"
"Who are you calling Junior Sister?" Donghwa Yufan patted Li Batian's head and said angrily.
This guy was really familiar with everyone. He could strike up a conversation with anyone.
Yun Li covered her mouth and smiled, and said to Donghwa Yufan,
"Senior Sister, it doesn't matter. 'Uncle Li' and I can be considered friends."
Li Batian was surprised to see Yun Li like this. He didn't expect that the girl who was a little afraid of him in the past would be so generous now. He had a good impression of her, so he said,
"Yes, yes, yes, we are friends. Come back, I will eat more. Princess is going to be reborn."
Donghwa Yufan rolled her eyes, ignored Li Batian, and quietly put Xiaoqing into the space, not letting Yun Li see it. At the same time, she told Li Batian not to talk about Xiaoqing's existence.
Although Li Batian didn't understand, Donghwa Yufan and he had long been grasshoppers on the same rope, so he naturally wouldn't go against her words.
"Senior Sister, let's go to the outer door first. I have two friends waiting." Yun Li said in the sea of consciousness here, and her face blushed politely.
Li Batian, who was experienced in flowers, was the first to notice this. He quietly whispered in Donghwa Yufan's ear,
"Hey, there is something wrong with your Junior Sister ~"
Donghwa Yufan looked over and happened to see Yun Li's action of tucking her hair behind her ear. She didn't think it was inappropriate, but she felt that Yun Li seemed to have dressed up carefully today, and looked delicate and pretty.
"Okay, then let's go directly." Donghwa Yufan didn't think too much. She was thinking about the beauty pill.
The two quickly reached the outer door. There were many disciples coming and going at the foot of the mountain.
Yun Li walked to a certain place with ease..
Donghua Yufan, as an attendant, naturally followed along.
"Senior Sister, this is the outer sect deacon elder's disciple, Jiang Yingtong."
"Greetings, martial uncle." Jiang Yingtong naturally knew of Donghua Yufan's identity.
He bowed respectfully.
Donghwa Yufan's expression was indifferent. After a soft 'en', she didn't say much.
Jiang Yingtong didn't care. Donghwa Yufan's aura made him feel a sense of danger.
Although she looked young, he didn't dare to underestimate her at all.
"This is Senior Brother Jiang's younger sister, Jiang Yingyi."
Yun Li carefully glanced at Jiang Yingtong's expression and shyly pursed her lips. Then, she said to Jiang Yingyi and Donghwa Yufan.
"Greetings, Martial Aunt." Jiang Yingyi bowed to Donghwa Yufan gracefully.
Donghwa Yufan didn't show it on her face. She nodded lightly, but she didn't like this Jiang Yingyi.
If she didn't feel wrong, this Jiang Yingyi didn't seem to have a good impression of Yun Li.
When Yun Li introduced Jiang Yingtong's sea of consciousness, a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes.
If she hadn't advanced, Donghwa Yufan wouldn't have felt it.
A person's likes and dislikes could actually be felt. It depended on whether the other party's divine sense was strong.
"Let's go." Donghwa Yufan was silent.
After speaking, she directly took out her spirit sword.
Yun Li insisted, but could only shrug and say to the two of them,
"Sorry, Senior Sister has been in seclusion for too long. I haven't spoken for a long time."
Yun Li said this to Jiang Yingtong. After all, in front of the person she liked, she didn't want him to have any opinions about Donghwa Yufan.
After all, Donghwa Yufan was one of the most important people in her world.
"It's okay. I have heard of Martial Aunt's name long ago." Jiang Yingtong shook his head and looked at Donghwa Yufan's back with some admiration.
Seeing this, Yun Li was relieved.
She took out her spirit sword. This spirit sword was also given to her by the Eternal Venerable.
Although Yun Li's current status was still that of an in-name disciple of the Cold Through The Ages, her treatment wasn't much better than that of an ordinary disciple of the other peaks.
Spirit weapons weren't cabbages. The other peak masters wouldn't casually give them to their disciples.
Moreover, Yun Li was only an in-name disciple.
She wasn't even listed in the sect records.
This was also the reason why everyone called Yun Li a peer and Donghwa Yufan Martial Aunt.
When Jiang Ying saw Yun Li take out her spiritual sword, a flash of jealousy appeared in her eyes. Even if I was wrong, I would not regret it.
She tugged at Jiang Yingtong's sleeve. Jiang Yingtong slightly comforted Jiang Yingtong before taking out his own weapon and following behind.
"See.
I told you that Yun Li has a sweetheart. "
Li Batian whispered in Donghwa Yufan's ear uncomfortably. From time to time, he would look at Jiang Yingtong with a gloomy gaze.
Jiang Yingtong was so frightened that he almost lost his balance.
Fortunately, his mind was stable and he had been in the Foundation Establishment Stage for many years.
"When did you say that Yun Li has a sweetheart?"
Donghwa Yufan asked in confusion. Forgive her for being completely focused on the beauty pill. Although she didn't like the two people behind her, she endured it for Yun Li's sake.
The market wasn't too far away, but it was still within the Yuxu Sect's sphere of influence. Thus, Donghwa Yufan wasn't considered to be out of the sect.
Not long after, the four of them arrived at the entrance of the market.
Because they were all wearing the Yuxu Sect's disciple robes, they went in without a hitch. Moreover, Donghwa Yufan was wearing the robes of an inner disciple, so the disciples guarding the entrance were all smiles.
The auction house in the market was still the Proud Heaven Auction House that Donghwa Yufan had been to before. However, what made Donghwa Yufan curious was that the Proud Heaven Auction House was actually within the sphere of influence of the Yuxu Sect. As expected of the largest auction house in the Feitian Continent, they didn't even let go of this place.
After entering the door, Donghwa Yufan originally thought that she would have to spend ten spirit stones. However, when the attendant saw Donghwa Yufan, he smiled and directly welcomed Donghwa Yufan in.
Could it be that the market of the sect was different from the market outside?
"Greetings, Senior. May I ask which peak this Senior is from?" As they walked in, the attendant respectfully asked Donghwa Yufan.
Donghwa Yufan looked at the attendant in surprise. Seeing the attendant's respectful expression, she replied,
"Cold Through The Ages."
The attendant was surprised for a moment, but her excellent professionalism immediately restored her smile. She led Donghwa Yufan upstairs and walked into a room. Then, she said apologetically to Donghwa Yufan.
"Senior, can you show me your identity jade pendant?"
Donghwa Yufan handed the jade pendant over. After the attendant took it, she used the pendant to scan the round hole in the door.
Then, the door suddenly opened.
Donghwa Yufan and Li Batian were stunned and looked at each other.
"High-tech. It's much more advanced than fingerprints and whatnot."
"Senior, this room is for the disciples of the Cold Through The Ages.
Through this screen, you can clearly see the stage … "Seeing Donghwa Yufan's suspicious expression, the attendant carefully and patiently explained to Donghwa Yufan.
Donghwa Yufan nodded. It seemed that her identity had played a role again. As expected, inner sect disciples had many benefits, not to mention that she was a direct disciple.
She was very proud of herself.
However, she didn't show it on her face and nodded.
Yun Li ran excitedly to the screen and said to Donghwa Yufan, "Senior, this is very clear.
"Senior Sister, it's so clear here. It's even clearer than outside."
She originally thought that they would have to squeeze downstairs. She didn't expect that they would be in such a big room, and there would only be a few of them.
"Senior, if you don't have time, I'll go down first." Seeing Donghwa Yufan's satisfied expression, the attendant said.
"Go down."
Then, Donghwa Yufan took the lead and sat on the chair in front of her.
Today, she could be considered to have enjoyed VIP service. She didn't expect that the scale of the auction house in the sect's market would be so big. Just by looking at the room, she could tell that it wasn't small. Moreover, there were many spirit fruits in it.
Donghwa Yufan lost interest after a few slashes. However, Li Batian directly occupied the few plates of spirit fruits.
Jiang Yingtong and Jiang Yingyi looked at each other. Seeing that Donghwa Yufan didn't let them out, they sat behind Donghwa Yufan.
"Yun Li, come, come, come, Uncle will treat you to some fruits." Li Batian saw that no one in the room was talking, and there weren't many people in the hall outside.
Thinking that there was still some time before the auction started, he said to Yun Li, who was beside him with a smile on her face.
Because Li Batian didn't have a good impression of the Jiang siblings, he didn't want to talk to them.
When Donghwa Yufan heard this, she almost spat out the spirit tea in her mouth.
She glared at Li Batian, then looked at Yun Li. She happened to see Yun Li's pink face. Her heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Yun Li really liked this Jiang Yingtong?
However, Donghwa Yufan was a bit puzzled. What was so good about this Jiang Yingtong?
Thinking of this.
Donghwa Yufan suddenly thought of her boyfriend. Speaking of which, she hadn't replied to him when she came out of seclusion.
She took out the communication jade slip but couldn't find any trace of it. The depressed Donghwa Yufan searched through all the storage rings, but still couldn't find it.
She faintly felt bad in her heart, but now that she was here, she could only put this matter aside.
"Yun Li, apart from Mo Li and the others who came to find me, did anyone else come to find me?"
After being asked by Donghwa Yufan, Yun Li began to recall.
In the end, she shook her head and said,
"Senior Sister, did something happen?"
Donghwa Yufan waved her hand. She couldn't contact Feng Qingchen now, and she didn't know if Feng Qingchen had come to find her.
Pinching the Heart Union Knot, Donghwa Yufan's heart suddenly sank.
It was a small matter that the communication jade slip was missing, but the most annoying thing was that she couldn't contact Feng Qingchen.
Of all the communication jade slips, only the one between her and Feng Qingchen was missing. The rest were well in the storage rings. How could this not make people think about it?
"What's wrong?
You look constipated! "
Seeing Donghwa Yufan's dignified expression, Li Batian rushed to Donghwa Yufan's side and asked through voice transmission.
Donghwa Yufan shook her head. If she said this, Li Batian would certainly gloat. She simply didn't say anything. She would think of a way after returning.
She wanted to see if she could find a trace of Feng Qingchen's aura on the Heart Union Knot.
Not long after, the auction finally began.
The host was a middle-aged woman, but she was still charming. Even her cultivation was at the Core Formation stage. It was clear that the Proud Heaven Auction House was very rich.
Even the auction house in the sect's market square had a Core Formation stage cultivator. What a wastrel!
"Friends must have been waiting, so I won't say much. Let's begin." With a smile on her face, the woman clapped her hands and a maid came forward with a tray.
"The first auction item is a Water Repelling Bead. I don't think I need to explain its function.
The starting price is one thousand low-grade spirit stones. "After the woman finished speaking, she took two steps back and presented the Water Repelling Bead in front of everyone.
Since the Water Repelling Bead was the first item, it must be the least valuable of all the auction items.
Most of the Foundation Establishment stage cultivators could hold their breath for a while in water, so this Water Repelling Bead didn't have much effect on them.
After all, this was the continent and there weren't many opportunities to go into the water. Few people were willing to spend money to buy something that they couldn't use. Even if it was only one thousand low-grade spirit stones, no one opened their mouth.
However, Donghwa Yufan suddenly had a brainwave.
She had always known that there was a problem with the pond behind the Cold Through The Ages, but because the water pressure was too heavy and she didn't like to be in water, she thought that if she had the Water Repelling Bead, she could go in and investigate.
However, Donghwa Yufan didn't rush to open her mouth and quietly waited.
"This Water Repelling Bead isn't very useful. It seems that it won't be sold." Yun Li muttered when she saw that there was no movement from below.
The woman on the stage had obviously considered this situation as well. She smiled and said, "Don't worry.
"It seems that everyone came here today with a goal in mind. Then …"
"One thousand low-grade spirit stones."
Just as the woman was about to announce her decision, Donghwa Yufan directly pressed the button next to her seat and said in a low voice.
There was an uproar in the crowd, but when they saw that it was a cultivator in the private room who bid, they didn't say anything. Even more so, no one bid. Donghwa Yufan actually won it at the lowest price.
Occasionally, someone would whisper something like 'wastrel', but they still heard it.
Donghwa Yufan ignored them and felt a little proud in her heart. It couldn't be helped, it felt good to be rich.
In terms of net worth, there was probably no one here who was richer than Donghwa Yufan.
The Eternal Venerable had basically given all his spirit stones to Donghwa Yufan, so Donghwa Yufan was a little extravagant. As for what others said about her, she just took it as a compliment.
"Boss, tycoon, please help me."
Li Batian had been with Donghwa Yufan for a long time and naturally knew what kind of person Donghwa Yufan was. It immediately hugged Donghwa Yufan's leg tightly and said with a fawning expression.
"Scram." Donghwa Yufan kicked it away in annoyance.
After that, most of the items that were auctioned were weapons or spirit plants. There were also some high-grade pills, but Donghwa Yufan wasn't interested in them. She didn't lack weapons, didn't know how to refine pills, and didn't need to take pills, so she directly skipped these items.
However, Donghwa Yufan found that Yun Li seemed to be interested in a fifth-grade pill, but she didn't bid for it.
Now, this fifth-grade pill's price had been raised to 2,200 low-grade spirit stones.
Donghwa Yufan thought for a moment. With Yun Li's status, she should be able to afford it. Not to mention the Eternal Venerable's gift, Yun Li's monthly allowance was the standard of an ordinary disciple of the Cold Through The Ages. After all these years, Donghwa Yufan didn't believe that she didn't have any savings.
So at this time, Donghwa Yufan didn't intend to speak for her.
After all, Yun Li didn't speak, and she didn't want Yun Li to owe her more karma. Thinking about it, Yun Li also didn't need it.
Sure enough, not long after, Yun Li spoke.
"3,000 low-grade spirit stones."
After reporting the number, Yun Li clenched her hands tightly and carefully looked at the people below. In the end, no one else bid.
Donghwa Yufan guessed that the people below didn't want to offend the inner disciples.
The woman on the stage instantly understood and didn't hesitate to directly make the decision.
Donghwa Yufan saw that Yun Li was relieved, and the two people behind her also let out a sigh of relief.
Donghwa Yufan's expression froze, and she had a bad guess in her heart. Yun Li, this silly child, wouldn't be bidding for the people behind her, right?
