Meeting Gift

"This... I..."

Li Xiangrou looked at the Treasure Armor he handed her, then hesitated.

I never imagined that this Treasure Armor was a gift for me.

"Take it."

Ning Qi glanced at her and smiled, "I spent a lot of money to get this for you, so don't let me down."

"Then I won't stand on ceremony."

Li Xiangrou eventually accepted his Treasure Armor.

The moment I got my hands on the Treasure Armor, I felt a cool sensation.

However, it didn't feel cold.

"That's right!"

Seeing that she accepted it, Ning Qi revealed a satisfied expression. "It's yours, so don't be polite."

"Good!"

Li Xiangrou nodded slightly, a strange glint flashing in her beautiful eyes.

He then put it away.

Her beautiful eyes were filled with gratitude.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the next item we will be auctioning is a celestial sword!"

At this point, the auctioneer spoke again.

After he finished speaking, the men behind him brought up a long sword case.

Just by stepping onto the stage, he exudes an aura of power and intimidation.

"It's a good sword."

Ning Qi made his judgment after just one glance.

His eyes were filled with curiosity. "What kind of sword could it be?"

"Is that so?"

"Perhaps I'm not good enough to see it."

Upon hearing his words, Li Xiangrou couldn't help but become curious as well.

However, she couldn't see anything good about the sword.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I won't go into too much detail about this sword."

The starting price is ten million!

At this point, the auctioneer spoke again.

"What? Only ten million? That's nothing."

"I thought it would be great!"

"That's all there is to it!"

"..."

After hearing his words, the crowd below began to discuss among themselves.

Many people showed signs of disappointment.

Clearly, there was no longer any expectation for this sword.

"Ten million Spirit Marrow!"

Amidst the crowd's disdain, the auctioneer announced, "Each bid must be at least one million Spirit Marrow!"

"Holy crap, Spirit Marrow?"

"This is way too expensive!"

"The key is that this thing is so rare; very few people have it!"

"..."

His words caused the crowd below to widen their eyes in astonishment.

They all stared intently at the sword box, their faces full of curiosity.

What exactly is inside this sword case that could fetch such an exorbitant price?

"Everyone, since you're all curious, let me show you!"

"Our immortal sword was obtained from the Immortal Domain!"

"It's said that it was once used by a Golden Immortal."

Seeing the curious looks on everyone's faces, the auctioneer smiled and said, "Open!"

"Yes!"

"..."

After he said that, two or three of his men came up together.

Then they worked together to retrieve the immortal sword.

"Call!"

The mere sight of it flashed with a chilling light.

"Puff!"

A cold glint flashed, and the two men didn't have time to dodge.

They simply sliced off their arms cleanly.

"Ah!"

"..."

The two screamed in agony, their faces drained of color.

"Take him away!"

The auctioneer, with a cold expression, ordered his men to carry him away.

"Holy crap, that's incredible!"

"Just the cold air can harm people!"

"..."

Everyone stared wide-eyed, looking at what was happening before them in disbelief.

I never expected this immortal sword to be so powerful.

Everyone was captivated by the sword.

The sword was gleaming with a brilliant light.

It was so striking that one dared not look directly at it, and the blade itself sent chills down one's spine.

His exceptionally long and slender figure gives him an even more imposing presence.

"What a fine sword!"

Ning Qi looked at the sword and couldn't help but smile, "It should be a good gift for Miss Xu's master!"

"Master, this is too precious, I can't bear to part with it!"

Medicine Spirit then said, "Her master is not worthy of this sword."

Medicine Spirit had met Xu Qingqiu's master.

He knew very well what kind of person he was.

Ning Qi was the only one I hadn't met before, so I had to give him a gift.

Medicine Spirit didn't say anything about this.

I just made one comment.

"It's alright, your master possesses the Chaos Sword!"

"It's the Immortal -Immortal-Slaying Sword that Di Xi spoke of."

"This sword is worthless before my Immortal-Slaying Sword!"

Ning Qi didn't seem to care, smiled, and said, "Alright, get ready to raise the price."

"Everyone, we can begin!"

At that moment, the auctioneer below spoke up.

"Eleven million!"

As soon as he said that, someone raised the price.

"Fifteen million!"

Ning Qi didn't hold back; before he even finished speaking, he immediately raised the price.

"It's that kid again!"

"He must be from the Myriad Sword Sect!"

"They're really rich and powerful!"

"..."

Those below were already numb.

Ning Qi's wealth was something that made everyone hesitate to approach.

They immediately added four million.

What kind of strength is this?

"Twenty million."

After he said that, someone else raised the price as well.

It still sounds like a young girl's voice.

"This sword is truly remarkable; it's incredible that people are willing to pay such exorbitant prices for it!"

"Yes, it's a pity we don't have any Spirit Marrow!"

"..."

Many people started discussing it.

Thirty million!

Ning Qi couldn't help but laugh after the woman raised the price.

Spirit Marrow?

What he has in abundance is Spirit Marrow.

He himself didn't know how much Spirit Marrow was in his Storage Bag.

As long as she dares to add more, she can keep adding more.

Forty million!

After he said that, the woman raised the price again.

"My God, forty million? Isn't that a bit much?"

"Didn't you see? They've started competing with each other."

"Yes, they are two capable individuals!"

"..."

Many people started talking about it.

Clearly, they could also tell that this was someone holding a grudge.

Sixty million!

Ning Qi quoted another price.

"My God, it has to be this young man!"

"It's already increased sixfold!"

"My God, we've really seen something amazing today!"

"To those with real power, these resources are nothing more than numbers."

"..."

After he announced his price, the people below started discussing it even more animatedly.

Everyone became curious about Ning Qi.

"Ladies and gentlemen, to prevent you from making empty promises and driving up prices..."

"If you keep adding more, regardless of whether you succeed in filming or not, 20% of your Spirit Marrow will be deducted."

At that moment, the auctioneer said, "Now, our people will go up and verify your resources."

"If anyone's offer isn't up to your current quotation, we'll expel them immediately!"

"Furthermore, the price of the Spirit Marrow will be reduced by fifty percent for the previous bidder!"

The auction house wouldn't dare to accept such a high price.

Anyone who can offer such a high price must be someone with both power and connections.

If we go back and our Lineage find out, they'll regret spending so much money here to auction off these things.

They will definitely come looking for them to settle accounts.

Such spiteful behavior has happened before.

Therefore, after Ning Qi arrived, the auctioneer made this decision.

That's right.

"I feel like they're just shouting nonsense!"

"Then let's see who's the fake!"

"..."

The audience started talking about it.

On Ning Qi's side, some of his men have already come up.

Upon seeing Ning Qi, he respectfully stepped forward.

"Young master, excuse me, may I check your resources?"

After the waiter stepped forward, he said politely again.

"Give!"

Ning Qi didn't mind and simply handed over his Storage Bag.

The man caught it with both hands and began to examine it carefully.

It wouldn't have mattered if they hadn't looked, but after examining it, their faces showed a look of surprise.

It's not that there isn't enough, it's that there's too much.

He couldn't even figure out how many there were.

"How about it?"

Ning Qi smiled and looked at the waiter in front of him, asking a question.

"Young master, I apologize for disturbing you, you have too much Spirit Marrow!"

"That's enough!"

The waiter quickly returned it to Ning Qi with both hands, then said, "This humble servant takes his leave!"

"Ning Qi, where did you get so many Spirit Marrow?"

"I've heard that this is a rare find in the world!"

Li Xiangrou also asked curiously.

"It's a secret!"

Ning Qi deliberately kept everyone in suspense.

Meanwhile, several of the men had already reached the bottom.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this immortal sword has been awarded to this young master for twenty million!"

At this moment, the auctioneer pointed in Ning Qi's direction.

"Haha, I knew that girl didn't have that many Spirit Marrow!"

"Exactly, they don't have it, but they pretend otherwise."

"Now look what happened, they've seen through us!"

"..."

The people below began to mock them.

Clearly, this woman only possesses twenty million units of Spirit Marrow.

After being discovered, he was disqualified by the auctioneer.

She gave the immortal sword to Ning Qi, based on the maximum limit of her own Spirit Marrow.

In this way, Ning Qi's expenses were not high, and he was given enough face.

After his announcement, in another private room.

None of them looked well.

"Qianqian, this... I'll go teach that bastard a lesson!"

A young man was indignant.

"Mind your own business!"

The girl called Qianqian snorted, "I'll teach that brat a lesson myself!"

"Miss, but there are Restriction here, and we don't know who it is!"

A maid quickly reminded them, "Besides, there are rules here; we can't possibly know his identity."

"That's because you can't, but I can!"

Qianqian smiled, then said, "Xu Feng! Let's go."

"Okay, tell me, what should we do?"

Xu Feng was the young man from earlier, and he saw that Qianqian was about to make a move.

He even called out to himself, and he immediately beamed with joy.

"Find a guy, feed him the Heart-Devouring Gu, and have him lead us there."

Qianqian smiled, then continued, "We'll dress up as the staff, and that'll solve the problem!"

"Yes, that's a good idea!"

"I'll get on it right away!"

Xu Feng clapped his hands, then excitedly got up and went out.

Qianqian followed her out.

The two went to a secluded spot and specifically sought out a companion.

After knocking the waiter unconscious, he fed him the Heart-Devouring Gu.

They're trying to figure out how to deal with Ning Qi, while Ning Qi is still looking at their immortal sword with Medicine Spirit.

At this moment, the immortal sword had already been delivered to the two of them.

"Master, this immortal sword is quite impressive. Just its Sword Qi alone is enough to instill fear in people!"

Medicine Spirit looked at the immortal sword and praised it repeatedly.

"Indeed, it is a fine sword!"

"If I didn't have the Immortal-Slaying Sword, I really wouldn't have been willing to give it away!"

Ning Qi, holding the immortal sword, said with a smile.

"This sword is indeed excellent; I can even feel its Sword Qi!"

Li Xiangrou also looked at the sword, a hint of admiration flashing in her eyes.

"Young Master!"

It was at this moment that a waiter knocked on his door.

What is it?

Ning Qi heard the sound and looked towards the door.

"We've brought you some pastries!"

The waiter was carrying pastries, with two other people behind him.

Both Qianqian and Xu Feng were disguised.

Dressed as waiters, these two men made it impossible to tell that they were important figures.

They're no different from ordinary people.

"Oh? That's quite thoughtful."

"Put it down!"

Ning Qi listened without suspicion and told them to put it down.

"Good!"

After the waiter agreed, he brought the two men in.

Then put the pastries down.

During this time, Qianqian and Xu Feng had clearly memorized the two people.

Then he hurriedly went out and left.

Ning Qi had no idea that he was being watched.

"Try it and see how it tastes!"

I picked up the pastry and tasted it.

"Not bad!"

Li Xiangrou also picked up a piece, took a bite, and praised it repeatedly.

"Master, that's really good!"

Medicine Spirit also took a bite and gave a thumbs up.

"We'll have a couple of bites, then we're ready to go!"

Ning Qi also began to eat heartily. "We've achieved our goal; there's no point in staying any longer."

"Um!"

Medicine Spirit nodded and began to eat.

Li Xiangrou didn't stand on ceremony and joined in the feast.

The three of them ate with great relish.

They finished eating it all in no time.

"Alright, let's go!"

Ning Qi clapped his hands and looked down again.

At this moment, the auctioneer was already auctioning off another treasure.

However, Ning Qi was not interested in this.

He has achieved his goal.

"Good!"

Li Xiangrou agreed and got up.

The Medicine Spirit returned to his shoulder once more.

We went downstairs together and soon arrived at the entrance of the auction.

By this time, it was completely dark.

However, the streets were becoming increasingly crowded.

"Let's go, it's getting late, let's head back!"

Ning Qi glanced around and said with a smile.

"Good!"

Li Xiangrou had no intention of continuing her shopping.

After agreeing, they set off together.

They headed back towards their inn.

Because there were so many people there, they didn't even realize they were being followed the whole time.

Even after they returned to the inn, someone was still following them suspiciously.

"Did you see it clearly?"

Qianqian glanced inside and asked in a deep voice.

"Look closely, this is the inn, absolutely!"

Xu Feng nodded, looking serious. "Shall we ask the guys where they live?"

"Okay! Let's go!"

Qianqian agreed and then followed him toward the inn ahead.

Xu Feng took the initiative to lead the way, and they soon arrived at the inn.

"Gentlemen, are you looking for a place to stay?"

As soon as I arrived at the door, a waiter came over and greeted me with a smile.

"Right."

Qianqian agreed and gave Xu Feng a look.

"By the way, I wanted to ask you something."

Xu Feng understood and stepped forward to speak.
