Seeing this, Mittel Teng Shan quickly took out a Purple Gold Card and handed it to Jiang Cheng. "Mister Confucian Sage, this is the most precious Purple Gold Card of our Mite'er Auction House. Only three people in the entire auction house possess one. With this card, all medicinal materials are sold at a thirty percent discount."

"Furthermore, it contains ten million gold coins. They can be withdrawn from any bank affiliated with the Mite'er Family, no matter where you are."

Within the entire family, the holders of Purple Gold Cards were himself, the Mite'er Family's First Elder, and the Ice Emperor, Hai Bodong.

Moreover, only Experts at the Dou Wang level or above were qualified to possess such a Purple Gold Card, which was enough to show just how precious it was.

Jiang Cheng thanked him. "Thank you, Clan Leader Teng Shan. I do not like owing favors, so keep the money. However, if the Mite'er Family ever encounters trouble, you may seek me at Peach Forest Mountain in the northeastern part of the Monster Mountain Range."

Hearing this, Teng Shan grinned from ear to ear and hurriedly cupped his hands in thanks. Although ten million gold coins amounted to the Mite'er Family's total income over several years, if it meant establishing a good relationship with Mister Confucian Sage, he would have been willing to pay even a hundred million.

Even though Mister Confucian Sage refused it, he still had to offer it.

At the same time, Jiang Cheng took out a Fifth-grade Dragon Power Pill and placed it on the table. "I have indeed been short on money lately. This Dragon Power Pill should fetch a good price, right?"

This kind of Pill could grant its consumer astonishing physical strength for a short period of time. This power had nothing to do with Dou Qi amplification; it was purely physical strength. Thus, the Dragon Power Pill was the sort of Pill that could directly enhance one's strength.

Mittel Teng Shan's eyes lit up. When he saw the Dragon Power Pill emitting a rich medicinal fragrance, he was greatly shocked.

"I never expected such a pure Pill. This Junior was fortunate enough to see a few in the past, but compared with yours, those Dragon Power Pills are nothing but dung!"

"How much can this Pill sell for?" Jiang Cheng asked softly.

After thinking it over repeatedly, Teng Shan said, "This Dragon Power Pill has pure effects and must be of the highest quality. We can set the starting bid at one million gold coins. Though the starting price is somewhat low, I will spread word of it, and Dou Wang Experts, perhaps even Dou Emperors, will naturally come to bid."

The Ice Emperor, Hai Bodong, had nothing further to say. He took a sip of tea and said, "With this Dragon Power Pill, this auction will likely cause quite a stir."

Although the Jia Ma Empire had a Sixth-Grade Alchemist, the Dragon Power Pill was a Pill that could directly enhance a person's strength. Its refinement difficulty was therefore quite high among Fifth-grade Pills, and even Fifth-Rank Alchemists had a considerable chance of failure.

Even Sixth-Grade Alchemists rarely refined this type of Pill.

The Dragon Power Pill Jiang Cheng had taken out did not contain the slightest impurity. Its medicinal fragrance could supposedly be smelled even on the first floor, so it was naturally extremely valuable.

"Then I'll trouble you with it."

Teng Shan clapped his hands, and the doors slowly opened. What entered Jiang Cheng's sight was a peerlessly beautiful Woman.

A seductive charm lingered on the Woman's faintly smiling, pretty face. She wore a vivid red, form-fitting brocade robe.

The luxurious robe, exquisite in craftsmanship, perfectly outlined the Woman's beautiful curves.

A stretch of dazzlingly pale long legs extended beneath the robe, stirring a fiery impulse in one's heart. A silver sash cinched her slender waist, emphasizing its delicate shape to the fullest.

Under the gaze of those narrow, peach blossom-like Beautiful eyes, you might unconsciously pull the gold coins from your pocket and willingly buy expensive items you had no use for whatsoever.

To many men, she was an irresistible temptress. This alluring female cat, brimming with seduction from head to toe, had ensnared the hearts of countless men.

Mittel Teng Shan introduced her. "Mister Confucian Sage, this is my granddaughter, Mite'er Ya Fei. She is also the Acting Inspection Elder of the auction house and tonight's Auctioneer."

"Ya Fei, hurry and pay your respects to Mister Confucian Sage."

Teng Shan urged her anxiously.

Offending Mister Jiang Cheng was hardly a wise choice.

"Ya Fei greets Mister Confucian Sage." Ya Fei gracefully performed a respectful salute, placing her hands before her lower abdomen. She pursed her Red Lips and said, "I had long heard of your name. I thought you would be an Old Man, but I never expected Mister Confucian Sage to be so young and handsome."

Jiang Cheng recognized her as well. As the Mite'er Family's future clan leader, Ya Fei's talent might not have been outstanding, but she was exceptionally skilled at business.

However, although Ya Fei always seemed to wear a smiling face, everyone knew that this Woman was extremely proud deep down. She was not as approachable as she appeared and harbored a certain aversion toward men.

Furthermore, as the Mite'er Family's foremost Auctioneer, Ya Fei had a sharp eye. She could easily see through others' disguises and notice details that ordinary people overlooked.

Her mind was quick, her nature shrewd, and she understood the ways of the world.

At the same time, with merely a joking remark from her, she could make countless men fall at her feet.

"Miss Ya Fei, you flatter me. Confucian Sage is merely a title the world has given me. It is not worth mentioning."

Teng Shan handed over the pill box in his hand. "Ya Fei, take this Dragon Power Pill. At the same time, inform everyone in the Jia Ma Empire that a top-grade Fifth-grade Dragon Power Pill will be auctioned tonight. Announce it in the name of the Mite'er Family as well: if it proves ineffective, the Mite'er Family will compensate them tenfold..."

Ya Fei nodded. Naturally, she knew that this Pill belonged to Mister Confucian Sage, and she immediately replied, "Understood. I'll go notify them now."

Watching Ya Fei's graceful figure leave, Jiang Cheng shifted his gaze from her to somewhere else.

"Heh, those fellows."

That night, nearly all the Dou Wang and Dou Emperor Experts in the Jia Ma Empire came. Although the Dragon Power Pill's allure was not especially great, they were deeply shocked upon learning that Mister Confucian Sage had arrived here.

They had never expected the Confucian Sage to visit a mere Mite'er Auction House. It truly made people green with envy.

As the Guardian of the Jia Ma Empire, Jia Xing Tian naturally could not be absent. He immediately went to the Mite'er Family's meeting hall, intending to pay Mister Confucian Sage a visit.

Mittel Teng Shan said, "My apologies, Elder Jia. Mister Confucian Sage is resting and will not receive anyone."

Jia Xing Tian's mouth twitched. As a mighty Dou Emperor Peak Expert, he had actually been stopped today by a Dou Wang, yet he did not even feel like losing his temper.

"Since Mister is resting, then I shall wait here for a while. There is still an hour before the auction begins, so Mister presumably will not rest for too long."

Seeing Jia Xing Tian like this, Mittel Teng Shan smiled. As expected of Mister Confucian Sage, his reputation was indeed Well-Deserved. Merely his name was enough to make Jia Xing Tian, a Nine-Star Dou Huang at the peak, humble himself so completely.

It was truly astonishing.
