However, during the auction of the Two-patterned Green Spirit Pill, a price war broke out between the Black Skull Tomb and the Blood Sect, which drove the price of 500,000 Gold Coins up to 550,000.

Keep in mind, this is the price of one Two-patterned Green Spirit Pill, and Xiao Yu offered four. Originally, it was thought the price would be slightly lower, but now it seems we have to thank our old buddies from Black Skull Tomb!

Although the four Green Spirit Pill ultimately ended up in the Blood Sect's pocket, Xiao Yu was the one who benefited in the end. As for the grudges between the two factions, they were not important to Xiao Yu!

The auction price for Xiao Yan's Spirit Replenishing Qi Pill finally settled at 500,000 Gold Coins, which is not bad. Four Spirit Replenishing Qi Pill can fetch 2 million Gold Coins. It has to be said that alchemists are indeed the richest profession on the continent!

The auction continued, but it was all items that Xiao Yu didn't find appealing.

About twenty minutes later, on the crystal platform, the auctioneer carefully lifted a scroll made of Ancient Jade and said mysteriously to the audience, "Ladies and gentlemen, the item to be auctioned next is something many of you have probably never seen before. It is a Dou Technique, but its rarity is far beyond what is expected!"

Sure enough, the auctioneer's words immediately piqued everyone's interest, and only Xiao Yu knew that it must be that Flying Dou Technique, Thunder Bat Sky Wings!

Sure enough, the auctioneer flicked his wrist, and the scroll slid down sharply. Immediately, a pair of miniature, eerily black bat wings appeared in everyone's sight.

Within the jet-black bat wings, faint traces of pale purple lightning shone through, appearing almost tangible, which was quite mysterious.

Xiao Yan's breathing quickened slightly, as this kind of Flying Dou Technique was quite rare. He knew that his Brother Yu possessed one. Xiao Yu chuckled and asked, "Third brother wants this?"

The Thunder Bat Sky Wings are only Xuan Tier Low-Grade Flying Dou Technique, while Xiao Yu's Flying Dou Technique is Mid-tier Profound Rank. However, the Thunder Bat Sky Wings have an advantage in that they can fly faster during thunderstorms.

Xiao Yan nodded slightly and said, "Flying Dou Technique are an excellent choice for both fighting and escaping. Don't you also have a Flying Dou Technique, Brother Yu?"

Xiao Yu nodded and said, "That's right, if you want it, then let's bid on it!"

The auctioneer tried his best to explain the Flying Dou Technique, and the eyes of many of the previously bewildered crowd below the stage became heated. After all, the ability to fly without being at the Dou Wang level was very attractive!

"The Flying Dou Technique we are auctioning today is classified as Xuan Tier Low-Grade skill according to our agreement. However, because of its inherent value, we have set the price at one million. Now, please begin the bidding!" the auctioneer said with a smile.

"Holy crap, that's expensive?" someone in the audience exclaimed immediately.

Many people who were initially eager to try it could only watch helplessly.

"One million three hundred thousand!" Fan Ling immediately announced a price that caused an uproar in the room. Judging from his confident appearance, it seemed that he had already secured the Flying Dou Technique.

"Flying Dou Technique? Young Sect Master Fan Ling, our Heavenly Snake Mansion is also very interested in this, so, how about 1.4 million!" Elder Qing's charming voice rang out again, and a hint of hidden killing intent flashed in Fan Ling's cold eyes!

Fan Ling took a deep breath and shouted, "One million nine hundred thousand!"

Elder Qing shook his head slightly upon hearing the price, saying, "Young Sect Master Fan Ling is indeed very generous, but I still hope you have sufficient funds."

Upon hearing Elder Qing's words, Fan Ling glanced at her with a sinister look and said, "Elder Qing need not concern yourself with that!"

Immediately, Fan Ling looked at the auctioneer on the stage and coldly shouted, "Hurry up and put down the bid!"

"Uh... Young Sect Master, please don't be angry, I..."

"Two million!" A calm voice came from the back corner. Fan Ling looked in the direction of the voice with a murderous glare and was surprised to find that it was the black-robed man who had been bidding against him for the first time.

"Good, very good, now even the most insignificant cats and dogs dare to bark!" Fan Ling growled in a chilling voice.

Xiao Yu replied without any hesitation, "It's an auction, so naturally the highest bidder wins. There doesn't seem to be any problem with that, right?"

Fan Ling sneered, "I doubt you even have two million. You're just spouting nonsense here. Doesn't the Eight Fan Sect government agency) stop this kind of thing?" As he finished speaking, he looked at the auctioneer on the stage.

The auctioneer quickly said, "We'll check right away." Then they saw the Eight Fan Sect members leading Xiao Yu out. Seeing this, Fan Ling revealed a smug smile, "Trying to mess with me!"

But before that smug smile could fade, Xiao Yu walked in again, waving the Five-Patterned Purple Gold Card in his hand towards Fan Ling —truly a move that could kill a man's spirit!

"Pfft!" Elder Qing couldn't help but laugh at Fan Ling's face, which looked like his father had just died. He whispered to the person next to him, "Keep an eye on this man in black robes. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Maybe we can ask them to protect us after we win the last bid!"

"Yes!" the person from the Heavenly Snake Mansion beside him responded.

At this moment, Fan Ling also realized what was happening and roared, "Two and a half million! Are you still going to keep going or not?"

Xiao Yu sneered, "Idiot, do you think I should or shouldn't I?"

Having been tricked again, Fan Ling growled at the old man beside him, "Have Father send men over! I want to drain this man's blood and tear him to pieces!"

"Yes!" the old man hurriedly replied. He dared not provoke Fan Ling, who was on the verge of going berserk. If Fan Ling went mad, Fan Ling might even suck his blood!

Seeing that things were going wrong, the auctioneer quickly sold the item, saying, "Congratulations to Young Fan Ling Master Fan Ling for acquiring the Thunder Bat Sky Wings!"

Sitting down, Xiao Yu chuckled, "This guy has no brains and no strength. We'll just snatch it back later. It's the Black Corner Region, after all; stealing things is perfectly normal!"

Cai Lin rolled her eyes at Xiao Yu and sneered, "Shameless!"

"I've never claimed to be a good person. Besides, they're no good either. I've done something good for the people!" Xiao Yu shrugged.

Xiao Yan agreed, saying, "That's right. This guy targeted us from the start, but now he's been tricked. It looks like he's going to kill us. It's time to teach them a lesson!"

Then came another period of low morale, and Xiao Yu's last two Three-Patterned Green Spirit Pill were auctioned off for a high price of 1.5 million each, ending up in the pocket of the Heavenly Snake Mansion.

Xiao Yu watched with a smile as his Three-Patterned Green Spirit Pill was auctioned off for a high price of three million, and next up were the fragments of the Earth Fire Ganoderma and the Purifying Lotus Demon Flame.

Sure enough, when the auctioneer brought out a silver tray, a bright red Ganoderma lucidum, as red as fresh blood, appeared before everyone. A faint fragrance wafted out from it, making those who were closer feel refreshed.

Xiao Yan also sat up abruptly, unable to hide his joy as he asked, "Earth Core Fire Ganoderma? Isn't that the Earth Core Fire Ganoderma, one of the four essential ingredients for refining the Earth Spirit Earth Spirit Pill that Teacher mentioned?"

"I must take it!" Xiao Yan made up his mind.
