Su Xiaobai had originally thought that being able to auction it for tens of millions would be about right.
That was his expected price.
If it went higher, that would be great; if it went a little lower, it did not matter either.
However, he had never expected that the auction price would actually nearly double!
After his shock, Su Xiaobai was naturally delighted from the bottom of his heart.
With more than sixty million coming in all at once, he could go on upgrading recklessly and furiously again!
"Okay, I understand."
Although Su Xiaobai was overjoyed, he still had to put on a proper show on the surface. His tone remained as indifferent as ever... as if more than sixty million was nothing worth mentioning to him.
After putting away the bank card, Su Xiaobai casually took a small wooden box from his robes and placed it on the table.
"Help me auction these off too."
Su Xiaobai spoke indifferently.
Rose carefully opened the wooden box. Inside lay a pill that resembled a golden pearl or glazed glass... That was right, it was another Grade Four Golden Crow Marrow-Protecting Pill. Moreover, judging from its luster and the richness of its spiritual energy, it was still Perfect Grade!
Su Xiaobai had not been idle during these three days.
He had sold another batch of Fierce Beast Materials and earned tens of millions in profit.
To allow the Qiankun Law to be cultivated successfully more quickly, he had spent 12.8 million to raise the Automated Skill Training to a certain level, causing the time to drop all the way to less than a certain number of days!
As for the remaining money, he had not used it to upgrade his skills. Instead, he had invested it all into the medicinal materials for the Golden Crow Marrow-Protecting Pills... That was also why he had a batch of Fierce Beast Materials left over.
The Golden Crow Marrow-Protecting Pills before her were the result of Su Xiaobai spending three million... Every furnace had produced four Golden Crow Marrow-Protecting Pills!
If they were calculated at today's auction price of tens of millions per pill, twelve pills would amount to a total of 0.64 billion!
Turning three million into 0.64 billion—a profit of eight hundred percent. How could that not make Su Xiaobai's heart race?
"This..."
Rose's cherry-like, thin lips unconsciously parted slightly, and astonishment shone in her eyes.
If she had still been unable to determine whether this "Mr. Bai" was the Fifth-Grade Pill Alchemist she had imagined... then with the appearance of this Perfect Grade Golden Crow Marrow-Protecting Pill, she was now completely certain!
Other than a Fifth-Grade Pill Alchemist, who could refine so many Perfect Grade Grade Four Pills in such a short time?
Even if he had not refined them himself, it at least proved that he knew a Fifth-Grade Pill Alchemist!
"All right, Mr. Bai!"
Rose smiled respectfully. "I'll give the orders right away. I'll certainly do everything in my power to help you auction these pills off at a high price!"
"Mm."
Su Xiaobai nodded silently.
Afterward, they exchanged more pleasantries, and Rose took the opportunity to ask Su Xiaobai several more questions... especially about the source of the Perfect Grade Golden Crow Marrow-Protecting Pills.
Su Xiaobai understood what Rose meant and gave only a few vague replies.
"...Mr. Bai, the one who bought your three Golden Crow Marrow-Protecting Pills at this auction was the Yuan Family, which has some reputation in Base No. ... I know a little about the Yuan Family as well. Their family head asked me to say that he would like to meet you. I wonder if you'd be willing?"
The Yuan Family?
"Heh."
At the mention of those two words, Su Xiaobai's eyes immediately turned cold, and he could not help letting out a soft laugh... His laughter was filled with mockery.
If there were no coincidence, how could there be such a coincidence?
He had never expected that the pills he had refined would ultimately be bought by the Yuan Family!
Still, he had to thank the Yuan Family.
They had provided him with more than sixty million in funds.
They had also dug a large enough grave for their own family!
"You know the Yuan Family?"
Hearing Su Xiaobai's soft laugh, Rose asked in surprise.
"I don't."
Su Xiaobai replied indifferently.
"Oh? Then what do you mean..."
"I'm not meeting them."
Now was not the time to meet them!
When the day came that Su Xiaobai truly met with the Yuan Family, it would also be the day the Yuan Family completely vanished from this world!
"All right, Mr. Bai. Take care!"
Soon, after receiving the gold-embossed order, Su Xiaobai walked straight out of the Precious Pill Pavilion under Rose's watchful gaze.
"If only I could recruit him into my Precious Pill Pavilion... What a pity!"
Rose let out a sigh.
During her conversation with Su Xiaobai just now, she had repeatedly wanted to speak but stopped herself because she had been thinking of poaching him... Although the force behind an Alchemist like this was certainly no ordinary one, the Precious Pill Pavilion was no pushover either!
However, so as not to offend him, Rose had still forcefully restrained herself.
She could cooperate with him a few more times in the future.
Perhaps then she could beat around the bush and find out which force was actually behind this Mr. Bai.
Rose thought to herself.
"I finally have money again!"
After returning home, Su Xiaobai immediately stripped off his black cloak, his eyes gleaming brightly.
"System, upgrade the Automated Skill Training for me!"
Without another word, Su Xiaobai decisively chose to upgrade the Automated Skill Training.
Two days ago, he had upgraded the Automated Skill Training to a certain level, spending tens of millions.
To upgrade it again, the cost would double: 25.6 million!
"Upgrade complete!"
After tens of millions were deducted, the mark in the upper-right corner of the Automated Training Space had clearly changed from "*128" to "*256"!
A time flow rate 256 times faster... It was easy to imagine how terrifying that was!
"Four days... I'll only need another certain number of days before I can comprehend the Qiankun Law!"
Su Xiaobai's eyes were filled with excitement.
Once the Qiankun Law was mastered, his strength would undergo a complete transformation!
Only then would Su Xiaobai truly no longer need to worry about being discovered by the Yuan Family... because by that time, he would possess the strength to contend with the Yuan Family!
"System, raise the Automated Cultivation and Automated Monster Hunting by one level each!"
Su Xiaobai continued.
Now that he had money, he naturally had to hurry and improve himself!
This money had all come from the Yuan Family to buy him a "coffin"... Naturally, he had to help them fulfill that wish!
"Upgrade complete!"
After tens of millions were deducted, the time-flow multiplier in the Automated Cultivation Space leaped from a certain multiple to a higher multiple.
After tens of millions were deducted, Automated Monster Hunting also swiftly produced a fourth clone, which Auto Dispatch sent to a new Monster Hunting Area.
"Another tens of millions!"
"One-Click Alchemy is sufficient for now. Automated Skill Training isn't enough, and Automated Monster Hunting isn't enough either. I can only pile it all into Automated Cultivation!"
"System, continue upgrading Automated Cultivation!"
After tens of millions were deducted, Automated Cultivation reached a certain level, and the space-time flow amplification reached a certain multiple.
After tens of millions were deducted, Automated Cultivation reached another level, and the space-time flow amplification reached another multiple..
