Warrior's Promise Novel - Chapter 768
Chapter 768: Is it?
Su Mo narrowed his eyes at the woman on the platform.
Although her cultivation aura had been blocked, Su Mo still recognized her figure.
“Is it Qingxuan?”
Su Mo marvelled at how identical her height and body shape was to Hong Qingxuan.
“How could it be?”
Su Mo was shocked. Was it really her?
Why would Qingxuan be here?
After Qian Xunyue escaped the Genius Celebration with Hong Qingxuan, Su Mo ran into Qian Xunyue in the Barbaric Mountains, but he did not see Hong Qingxuan.
He had always been worried about what happened to her.
Now, he was worried that this woman was really Hong Qingxuan.
However, he was not sure, since he could not see her face or sense her aura.
Although their figures were similar, there were too many people with similar figures.
Su Mo gritted his teeth. If this girl was really Hong Qingxuan, he could not let anyone else buy her.
The entire Auction Room was dead silent as everyone was still stunned by the man’s words.
The middle-aged man in brocade robe smiled in satisfaction at the audience’s response.
“Pure Yin Body… Is it real?” someone finally broke the silence and asked.
Then, everyone responded and began asking questions.
“Yeah, is it true?”
“There’s no way she’s a Pure Yin Body, right?”
“Are you trying to swindle us?”
“…”
People were not questioning out of disbelief, but out of shock.
A Pure Yin Body was no joking matter!
The man chuckled and said louldy, “Our Auction Room has been around for centuries. Why would we lie to our patrons! You will see for yourselves after the auction!”
Then, he smirked and said, “This Stove is not only a Pure Yin Body, but also a virgin!”
These words stoked the fire again and caused everyone to gasp.
A chaste Pure Yin Body was considered an even rarer Supreme Stove.
“Why would Yin-yang Palace sell such a Supreme Stove?”
“Yes, why wouldn’t you keep it for yourselves?”
Someone voiced the question on everyone’s minds.
Since Yin-yang Palace lauded the powers of cultivating-through-sex, its own disciples also used it to strengthen themselves.
It was only logical that they would not sell off such a valuable asset.
The middle-aged man nodded and said, “Yes, we were initially not planning on selling this Stove to save it for our Junior Palace Master!”
“However, her cultivation is far lower than the Junior Palace Master’s, so we would have to train her for many years to increase her cultivation. Therefore, we ultimately decided to auction her off!”
The man explained everything to the audience.
Everyone was able to swallow this logic.
“Alright, without further ado, let’s begin the auction!” announced the middle-aged man, “Bidding will begin at at 300,000,000 Upper Spiritual Stones! Every new bid must increase in increments of at least 20,000,000!”
Everyone gasped. This was too steep of a price!
They were pulling random numbers out of a hat!
The starting price shattered the dreams of almost all martial artists present.
Most True Darkness martial artists did not have such a sum at their disposal, and only a few powerful people and Martial King experts could afford it.
“350,000,000!”
Someone offered the first bid and directly raised it by 50,000,000 Upper Spiritual Stones.
The bidder was in the highest VIP rooms.
Then, a frenzied bidding began.
“370,000,000!”
“400,000,000!”
“450,000,000!”
“…”
Many martial artists made increasingly outrageous offers, and in only a few minutes, the price climbed to 800,000,000 Upper Spiritual Stones.
Su Mo did not participate and only watched the woman in white silently.
He was growing more sure that she was Hong Qingxuan.
His heart sank. He was 60 – 70% sure it was her.
Su Mo waited for the veil to be lifted from her face.
If it was really her, he had to save her with whatever it took. If he could not buy her, he would steal her away.
This was not only because of their relationship, but also because he had chosen her to be Evergreen Palace’s descendant.
“Master Su, are you going to bid? I can lend you some Spiritual Stones if you’d like,” Master Cui asked confusedly.
Master Cui was alarmed that Su Mo was not drawn to such a Supreme Stove.
Yin-yang Palace was in Heaven-sea City, so many martial artists in the area were accustomed to cultivating-through-sex.
Therefore, Su Mo’s behavior was very confusing.
Master Cui also did not believe Su Mo was short on Spiritual Stones, since he was a craftsman.
“I’m going to wait and see!” Su Mo said flatly.
As the auction continued, the price reached the sky-high price of 1,100,000,000 Upper Spiritual Stones.
There were only a dozen people still bidding.
Some people had given up because they were too poor, while others did not think the Stove was not worth the price!
“Please wait a moment!” the middle-aged man suddenly waved his hands and paused the bidding.
“I’m sure everyone is curious to see her appearance, so I will reveal it!”
The room fell silent in an instant, and everyone’s expectant gaze fell on the woman in white.
Su Mo also gazed intently at her, eager to see if she was really Hong Qingxuan.
If this woman was very beuatiful, the bidding would become even more intense.
Contrastingly, if she was really ugly, the bidding would basically end.
However, since they had to wait until now to see her face, she was probably quite good-looking.
The middle-aged man slowly lifted her veil, and the appearance of the woman in white was clear for everyone to see.
