Descendant of a Golden Core True Person
On the top three floors of the auction house, six people were gathered in one of the private rooms.
Among the six people, there was an old man, a middle-aged couple, a young man and woman who were in love and both very good-looking, and a young man who was constantly eating the delicious spiritual fruits on the fruit plate on the table in the private room.
The young man ate fruit, watching Yang Hua, the auctioneer, auctione off one final spiritual item after another, and said happily.
"Judging by the time, the Foundation Establishment Pill will be auctioned off soon."
"Si Tong is right. After the auction of the ten portions of Hundred Spirits Water, the auction will be for the three Foundation Establishment Pill." The handsome young man among the six smiled.
"Fellow Daoist Wu, we're counting on you this time," the oldest man in the group said to the handsome young man.
"Ancestor, you can just call me Wu Yan. You flatter me. One of the three Foundation Establishment Pill that were the highlight of this auction was originally intended as a betrothal gift for Si Ling. Putting it up for auction was just to save face for the sect and go through the motions. It is thanks to you and your parents for traveling tens of thousands of miles to make this trip." The handsome young man replied modestly, then turned to look at the beautiful young woman beside him, his eyes filled with affection.
This feeling also contains a touch of tenderness.
The young man's gaze caused the celestial woman's cheeks to flush red.
The old man who witnessed this scene, along with the middle-aged couple and the young man beside him, smiled from the bottom of their hearts.
Afterwards, Yang Hua took out ten bottles of "Hundred Spirits Water," a second-class Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object unique to the Hundred Spirits Sect, for auction.
Such Foundation Establishment Spiritual Object are coveted by all Qi Refining cultivators, and many Foundation Establishment forces have also made efforts to purchase them for Lineage descendants.
The bidding war among the crowd pushed the price of each serving of Hundred Spirits Water to around eight or nine thousand Spirit Stone.
During this period, Ling Yunhong, the Clan Head of the Ling Clan clan, also made a bid once, but it was overshadowed by the subsequent bids from others. As the price of Hundred Spirits Water rose higher and higher, he did not bid.
Once all ten portions of Hundred Spirits Water have been auctioned off, the final, most prized spiritual item, the Foundation Establishment Pill, will then be unveiled.
Yang Hua, who was hosting the auction, took out three medicine bottles from his Storage Bag and extracted three pills the size of a finger from them.
"The last item up for auction is three Foundation Establishment Pills. These three Foundation Establishment Pills were refined by Li Qingyun, the head of the Spirit Pill Hall of my Hundred Spirits Sect and a second-tier high-grade alchemist. The quality of all three Foundation Establishment Pills is guaranteed. If any is fake, we will compensate ten times the price. Each pill can increase a cultivator's success rate in breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage by 30%. These three Foundation Establishment Pills will be auctioned separately. The starting price for each Foundation Establishment Pill is one thousand spirit stones, and each bid must be at least one hundred spirit stones higher."
The first and second Hundred Spirits Sect Foundation Establishment Pill were purchased by the Blue Moon Lake Song Family in Heavencloud County, Ning Province, Purple Cloud River Family in Heaven River County, Jing Province, respectively, for 28,500 and 27,800 Spirit Stone Spirit Stone.
Both Lineage are long-established Foundation Establishment Family in the Hundred Spirits Sect territory, with many Foundation Establishment Cultivator within them.
Just as Yang Hua announced the auction of the third Foundation Establishment Pill, a young man's voice came from one of the five private rooms on the third floor, which were only accessible to Golden Core cultivators and their close associates.
"I'll offer 30,000 Spirit Stone for this last Foundation Establishment Pill."
Upon hearing these words, everyone in the auction hall, including the Foundation Establishment Cultivator sitting in the private rooms on the second floor, stared in astonishment at the private room on the third floor from which the voice had come.
The private rooms on the third floor are only accessible to Golden Core cultivators or those closely associated with Golden Core. How could such cultivators possibly lack Foundation Establishment Pill?
Yang Hua, who was in charge of the auction, seemed to have anticipated this, and his expression remained unchanged.
Ten breaths passed, and no one bid. The last Foundation Establishment Pill was auctioned off to the person who spoke up in the private room on the third floor.
"Everyone, Wu Yan, the descendant of Spirit Talisman True Person of the Hundred Spirits Sect, will be holding a dual cultivation ceremony with Yang Siling, the granddaughter of the Fifth Elder of the Cloudwater County, Pingyun Yang Family, at the Hundred Spirits Sect on the second day of the second month next year. I hope you will all be there." Wu Yan spoke again from his private room on the third floor.
Upon hearing this, all but a few people in the know in the auction house, numbering in the thousands, showed expressions of surprise.
Among them was Ling Pengyun.
At this moment, Ling Pengyun suddenly realized and muttered to himself, "So Wu Yan's brother-in-law is a descendant of the Golden Core cultivator. No wonder my cousin Si Tong said that Wu Yan's brother-in-law's identity is extraordinary and should not be easily revealed before my cousin's marriage. If Wu Yan's brother-in-law's identity as a descendant of the Golden Core cultivator had been revealed earlier, the Yang Family, to which my cousin Si Tong and my cousin Si Ling belong, would have risen in status. Who in the entire Hundred Spirits Sect territory would dare to offend them? Now that Wu Yan's brother-in-law is suddenly buying Foundation Establishment Pill in such a high-profile manner, it must be to create momentum for the Yang Family."
As for why Wu Yan, a descendant of Golden Core True Person, would marry Yang Siling, Ling Pengyun didn't find it strange at all; on the contrary, he thought it was quite appropriate.
His cousin, Yang Siling, was no less impressive. Not only was she as beautiful as a fairy, but she also possessed Dual Spirit Root. Now, at just thirty years old, she had already broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm. With her good looks and aptitude, it was only natural that she found a good marriage.
Furthermore, although Wu Yan is a descendant of the Golden Core cultivator, he may not necessarily be able to enter the Golden Core like his elders; he simply has a strong backing.
Hearing Ling Pengyun's mutterings, Ling Yunhong turned his head and asked.
"Peng Yun, are you aware of Wu Yan's matter?"
Ling Pengyun nodded slightly. "My tenth sister and I ran into my cousin Si Tong in the Huai River Market Town area. Si Tong revealed a few things, but didn't go into details about Wu Yan's identity."
Upon hearing this, Ling Yunhong looked at Ling Penglin beside him to confirm, but seeing Ling Penglin looking at the direction of Wu Yan's private room on the third floor with an envious expression, he couldn't help but feel the same way.
Ling Penglin envied Yang Siling of the Yang Family for marrying a good husband, but he also envied the Yang Family for finding a Golden Core cultivator as a backer.
"I never expected that the Yang Family would find such a wealthy son-in-law. In the next hundred years, the Yang Family Yang Family will probably become extremely powerful. I should have more contact with the Yang family in the future. As long as we maintain this marriage relationship with the Yang Family, my Ling Clan can also get some help from them." Ling Yunhong secretly made up his mind.
Thinking about this, Ling Yunhong's expression changed slightly, and he asked about something.
"Peng Yun, I remember Wu Yan mentioned Yang Siling, who is your uncle Yang Qiujiang's daughter. Is that correct?"
Seeing Ling Pengyun Ling Yunhong the question, Ling Pengyun immediately understood. "Yes, Eighth Grandfather, are you planning to..."
Ling Yunhong's expression shifted slightly, and he said, "Yes, you should have more contact with the Yang Family in the future."
"Understood," Ling Pengyun replied.
One person is happy, while the other is sad.
Ye Yongjin, the Clan Head the "Red Maple Leaf Family" who lived in Cloudwater County alongside the Pingyun Yang Family, was alone in a private room on the second floor. After hearing that Yang Siling of the Yang Family was going to marry Wu Yan, a descendant of Golden Core cultivator, his face turned extremely dark and his mood became unpredictable.
"The Yang Family has kept it a secret for a long time. There has been no news of them in recent years. The feud between the Ye Clan and the Yang Clan has lasted for nearly a hundred years. Now that the Yang Family has this Golden Core backer, they will definitely make a move against the Ye Clan in the future. We must find a way to settle this feud."
