31 Auction

That day, Rarity Dew Auction House of Cerulean Coral City released a piece of shocking news, they had a lord breaking pill for their upcoming auction and what was even more shocking was that the seller was a mysterious young lady, however no one dared to make a move in fear of offending some big power.

They understood that the lady must be from a strong background to be able to casually bring out such a valuable pill out for an auction, powers immediately started gathering treasures to trade for the pill, for such a priceless pill money would not be enough so treasures would often be used instead.

A Martial Lord or Martial Expert could be the difference between winning and losing in a confrontation.

Another piece of news that the sects received was that the mysterious lady and her companions had brought a large plot of land and a manor in that city.

People had sent spies but none returned, the residence had no one exiting nor any servants to get information from.

On the day of the long awaited auction, many people came and the hall was packed full, Gardenia came with Zi Hua and Anemone, the employees punctually received them and led them to a VIP room that was specially reserved for them.

When the lights of that room lit up, all eyes turned towards it, they knew that the origins of the pill were from the ladies in that room.

They saw three masked young ladies, all of superb beauty, one was the previous bob haired one and there was also another girl of similar age,19/20 years old, who had an half-up, half-down hairstyle wearing the same clothing, however what really caught their eyes was the fairy-like lady that was the youngest yet seemed to be the leader, her beauty was also the most exquisite out of the three, they have never seen such a beautiful being.

However, half of their faces were covered by a masked.

Zi Hua had had no choice but to keep the spirit beasts inside Heaven-defying pagoda since if they met with an expert from an higher continent they would recognize their spirit beast identities and she hasn't quite completed 'that' yet.

It could cause them to be at risk and with her current power Zi Hua won't be able to protect them, 'for a noblewoman to take revenge, ten years is not long'.

Zi Hua knew how to be patient and bide her time however she would not be willing to be oppressed anymore like what happened during those years.

The auctioneer appeared quieting the hall, products were taken out and bids were placed but most stayed withdrawn, finally the item they had been waiting for was taken out.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sure that you all know of the lord breaking pill that is being presented here today from the ladies from VIP room 1 so I won't dally on, no starting bid and treasures can be used to exchange instead"

The hall immediately broke into a bidding war, however the powers who came for the pill stayed quiet waiting until the bidding slowed down until they join in.

"One advanced rank armament, Snake Whip" The armament was the same rank as the pill making the onlookers drool at the offer, that organization must have a large wallet.

"One Thousand year old Ginseng" This was relatively rare but not impossible to find, however they required a lot of man power to obtain due to their random growing environments.

"One Twilight Lotus" The purple twilight lotus was extremely rare however few people knew of it's uses.

Only these three were left and the ultimate decider would be the mysterious ladies.

"Esteemed misses, please decide"

"Twilight Lotus" A dulcet voice came from the chamber.

Zi Hua chose the Twilight Lotus which had been offered by Aboveboard Arcane Sect, a second rate power which was on the stronger side so they could protect themselves but they were rather recluse, they focus on experimenting with new ways in concoction and such, unlike most other sects which focus on cultivation solely.

She had looked into them and they weren't righteous but nor were they evil, much better than the pretentious Sophist Sage Sect who liked to act holy and upright, that offered the advanced rank armament.

Plus she had uses for the Twilight Lotus.

The Sophist Sage Sect could only grit their teeth in frustration, they didn't dare offend the young ladies and Mystical Arcane Sect was on the same standing as them or maybe even stronger.

An advanced rank pill was hard to come by, high ranked alchemists were all poached by the first rate powers and hermits wouldn't really sell them unless it was to show off or to get something which they needed.
