The Crystal Treasure Chest

"This was originally taken for you!"

"Of course I want you to wear it!"

Ning Qi smiled, a satisfied look on his face. "Not bad, it fits perfectly."

"And it's also very beautiful!"

"I see, that explains why I bought it – it wasn't a joke!"

Medicine Spirit understood and said with a smile.

"Well... it's gotten like this, I have no choice but to accept it."

Only then did Xu Qingqiu understand what was going on.

However, this Treasure Armor has already recognized its master.

She couldn't refuse.

She felt even more guilty towards Ning Qi.

"We're friends, it's only right that I give you this Treasure Armor!" Ning Qi said with a smile, completely unconcerned. "Just accept it!"

"But this is too expensive."

I haven't given you anything yet!

Xu Qingqiu said in a low voice.

"We'll talk about it another time."

Ning Qi then reminded him, "There will always be an opportunity."

"Okay, I'll definitely be more careful this time!"

Xu Qingqiu nodded, revealing a confident expression.

"However, I remind you to act within your capabilities."

Ning Qi suddenly became serious and continued, "Don't let these material possessions get you into trouble!"

"Yes, Master is right."

Medicine Spirit agreed, saying, "Don't force it, or you'll lose more than you gain." "Don't worry, I'll be careful!"

"Besides, aren't we still together?"

Xu Qingqiu smiled, then looked at her Treasure Armor: "It would be nice if I could put it away."

"I can't wear it forever."

"Whoosh!"

It was just a thought for her.

This Treasure Armor seemed to understand her words.

After a loud bang, it suddenly merged into her body.

It was as if nothing had happened.

"What? It even understands human nature?"

Medicine Spirit's eyes widened in disbelief. "Master, you've really struck gold!"

"I told you so, I'm never wrong!" "You really are! I'm impressed!"

Medicine Spirit repeatedly praised him, showing a look of great admiration.

Stop flattering me.

After saying this in an annoyed tone, Ning Qi continued, "This Treasure Armor should have other uses as well."

"You have time now, think about it carefully."

"Perhaps, there will be new discoveries!"

"Good!"

"I'm going back, I'll try again!"

Xu Qingqiu nodded and sat down as well.

His eyes returned to what was ahead.

The auction is still ongoing here.

However, after so long, it's almost over. "Master, is the news about Mount Buzhou a lie?"

Medicine Spirit yawned, looking impatient. "It's been so long already."

"I think this is almost over."

"What, still no news from Mount Buzhou?"

"I don't know then, we'll see how it goes in a bit!"

Ning Qi shook his head and turned his attention back down.

They both looked curious.

Clearly, he was also very interested in the news about Mount Buzhou.

This is the first time I've heard about Mount Buzhou since I left home.

If we can find any clues, then this trip won't have been in vain.

"Ladies and gentlemen, next up is the final treasure of tonight's auction!"

At this moment, Xu Feng'er spoke up. Her eyes were full of smiles.

He glanced at the crowd below.

At this moment, everyone showed curiosity.

Each pair of eyes was equally curious.

Waiting for her to announce what treasures will be auctioned next.

This is the highlight of the auction; the news had already spread.

"They're here!"

Medicine Spirit rubbed his hands together and went straight to the front.

"I believe this final year's treasure needs no further introduction!"

Xu Feng'er waved gently and stepped forward. "The information you heard is correct."

"It is indeed related to Mount Buzhou!"

"Then let's take it out and let everyone see!" "Exactly, stop keeping us in suspense."

"It's getting late, let's hurry!"

"..."

After she finished speaking, the crowd below began to shout.

Their eyes were filled with urgency.

Clearly, they had been waiting all night for this priceless treasure to appear.

"In that case, let's take it out!"

Xu Feng'er clapped her hands gently.

He gestured to the waiter to bring it out.

At her behest, several of her men began to act.

They appeared from behind, carrying a Crystal Box.

Then it was carefully placed aside. The mere appearance of this box immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.

All eyes turned to the box.

Some had already shown signs of greed, but they quickly suppressed them.

They all knew exactly where they were.

If we were to make a move here, it would be a one-way trip.

So, all we can do is feast our eyes on it.

What's inside?

"I can't see it."

"This box has Restriction on it, but it doesn't look like Restriction!"

"..."

Many people have already started discussing it.

"Master, I can sense fluctuations!" Medicine Spirit, standing ahead, wore a solemn expression. "There's definitely something here related to Mount Buzhou."

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to sense such a strong fluctuation."

"Can you sense the fluctuations of Mount Buzhou?"

Upon hearing his words, Xu Qingqiu's pretty face showed a look of doubt. "You've felt this fluctuation?"

Medicine Spirit just blurted it out in a moment of carelessness.

"You can feel this strong fluctuation too, right?"

Ning Qi explained, "That's not surprising."

"That's true, it is indeed very peculiar."

"It gives off a very weathered feeling!"

Xu Qingqiu nodded, then turned her attention back to what was below. "I wonder what's inside this Crystal Box."

"Then let's wait for her to reveal the answer!"

Ning Qi pointed downwards. "This way, people will be more likely to bid later. Otherwise, if it's too mysterious, no one will bother to participate."

"After all, the price she quotes later will definitely be very high."

"Ladies and gentlemen, the starting bid for this treasure is 10 billion Spirit Marrow Essence!"

Xu Feng'er finally spoke.

"What? It's so expensive?"

"Who can afford this?"

"I have no hope."

"..."

Many people below started to complain.

Each of them wore a look of disappointment.

I never imagined it could be so ridiculously expensive.

Originally, everyone had their own ideas. Now, everyone has been turned away.

"Each bid increase must be at least 100 million!"

Before the crowd could discuss anything further, Xu Feng'er spoke up again.

These words shocked everyone even more.

"Add one hundred million at a time?"

Did I hear that right?

"..."

Immediately, people started complaining again.

Seeing everyone's state, Xu Feng'er couldn't help but smile.

Clearly, he had anticipated everyone's attitude.

"Let's begin!"

"Highest bidder wins, but don't engage in malicious competition!" "If you don't have enough Spirit Marrow Essence, you'll drive up the price."

"Then, my Cloud Mist Sect will absolutely not let you get away with this!"

Xu Feng'er waved her hand, reminding everyone.

After she finished speaking, everyone in the room fell silent.

Everyone wanted to see who would be bidding so much Spirit Marrow Essence.

"One hundred million!"

A moment later, a loud voice rang out.

Everyone turned to look.

They discovered that this was in the direction of the middle-aged man who had just bid against Ning Qi for the Treasure Armor.

At that moment, he surprisingly became the first person to make a bid.

Who is this person?

"I don't know, but I thought he wasn't very strong either." "Yeah, he was defeated by that young man, yet now he can produce at least 10 billion Spirit Marrow Essence!"

"..."

The murmurs resumed, many people showing great interest in the middle-aged man.

Unfortunately, this place is Restriction.

They couldn't see the middle-aged man's face at all.

Two hundred million!

After he finished speaking, someone else spoke up.

This time, it sounded like an old man's voice.

When everyone went to check again, they found the old man was also in the private room.

Similarly, you can't see whose face it is.

"This is pointless; we have no idea who it is!"

"Forget it, it's good enough to just watch the show." "..."

Some people started talking about it again.

Each of them wore a look of disappointment.

"Master, would you like to add more?"

"Medicine Spirit asked."

"Of course."

Ning Qi smiled and said directly, "Five hundred million!"

This price increase is another doubling.

This immediately sparked a lot of discussion.

"It's him again!"

"This must be someone's young master!"

"I don't know, but this is going to be interesting." "..."

Some people were already showing signs of wanting to watch the show.

We're just waiting for them to compete here.

"It's him again!"

In a private room not far from him, a middle-aged man's face darkened.

"Sir, what should we do?"

An elderly man with gray hair couldn't help but ask.

"Keep adding more, I refuse to believe he can have any more!"

The middle-aged man said without any hesitation, "I'm determined to have this!"

No one can stop me!

"Yes!"

"But this kid's not weak either!" "If he tries to take us on, it'll be troublesome!"

The old man continued.

"It's alright, let him continue!"

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "At worst, I'll find someone to form an alliance to deal with him later!"

"Sir, none of the people here are our friends!"

The old man seemed to remember something and offered a reminder.

"Those people from just now were excellent candidates!"

"If he goes too far later, go and bribe the guy at the door."

"As long as he sends a telepathic message, we can cooperate with these people!"

The middle-aged man said, "Remember to introduce yourself and tell him who I am!"

"As long as they cooperate with me, I promise they won't be treated unfairly!"

"Yes, this old servant understands!" The old man agreed, but his face still showed unease.

But he ultimately obeyed.

"One billion!"

It was at this point that someone else started raising the price.

This time, it was still the old man in the distance.

He had been competing with Ning Qi for the Crystal Treasure Chest.

Two billion!

Ning Qi made another offer.

He was actually too lazy to argue with anyone anymore, so he could leave this place of trouble as soon as possible.

Here, someone must have already noticed him.

"This kid's gone mad."

"Adding so much at once, leaving no room for others!" "I think this is definitely his!"

"..."

Immediately after those words, people started discussing it.

Even Xu Feng'er slightly raised her head.

He fixed his eyes on Ning Qi.

He looked quite interested.

"Twenty-five billion!"

At this point, the middle-aged man raised the price again.

Not to be outdone, he immediately offered 500 million.

"Fifty billion!"

After he said that, Ning Qi raised the price again.

His voice was loud and clear, conveying confidence. Clearly, he had plenty of confidence.

Damn it!

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man immediately revealed a ruthless expression.

I never expected Ning Qi to raise the price like this.

They left absolutely no room for anyone to maneuver.

"Sir, should we continue?"

The old man came over and couldn't help but ask.

If that's the case, then there's really no need to continue.

The result is already obvious.

Damn it!

"Where did this kid come from? How come he's so rich?"

"Have you found anything?" the middle-aged man gritted his teeth and cursed angrily.

"No, I just asked, but the guy won't say."

The old man shook his head and continued, "I'm afraid we'll have to go back, to the Cloud Mist Sect."

"We've sent someone to investigate; these guys are all afraid of dying."

"No one dared to say anything."

"Okay, I give up."

"We'll talk about it when we get back."

"This kid spent so much money to buy this Crystal Box."

"I absolutely know the secret inside!"

The middle-aged man nodded and said in a deep voice, "I must find out exactly what happened."

"I must get the second fastest spot on Mount Buzhou."

"Sir, shall we go?" "It's tomorrow; we should prepare to depart."

The old man looked at the middle-aged man and couldn't help but ask.

"Walk!"

The middle-aged man glanced at the Crystal Box below again, and ultimately decided to leave.

After he got up, he left immediately.

The old man left with several guards.

"Ladies and gentlemen, is there anyone willing to raise the price?"

Xu Feng'er asked again.

This time, after she asked, no one responded.

Clearly, everyone has given up.

"Since there's no one else around, it's his!"

"Yeah, I wonder whose young master he is!" "That kid certainly used up a lot of Spirit Marrow Essence today!"

"..."

Before she could say anything, the others had already started discussing it.

Each of them wore an expression of great interest.

Clearly, they were all very interested in Ning Qi's identity.

"Everyone, what about this Crystal Treasure Chest, and what's inside?"

"They all belong to this young master!"

At this point, Xu Feng'er announced the results directly.

After she said that, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became lively.

Many people are now complaining even more.

Some people chose to leave directly, since that meant the auction was over.

"Take this up to this young master!" "Also, remember to tell him to stay and come find me!"

Xu Feng'er gave the order to the guard beside her.

This time, she used guards instead of waiters.

This clearly demonstrates the importance placed on Ning Qi.

"Yes!"

The guards obeyed and then carried it away.

Xu Feng'er then turned her gaze toward Ning Qi's private room.

At this moment, Ning Qi was smiling as he looked down at the situation below.

"Master, she's been replaced!"

Medicine Spirit noticed that the situation had changed.
