Translator: Sissy That Walk
Murong Family was actually struggling to live up to its name, they were falling behind the other big families.
Even though Murong Qingyan won in the family competition and got them the title of the First Family, but it was no easy job to catch up, they were not what they used to be.
The bidding still went on feverishly, and Murong Xiong had to sit aside and watch, he could no long afford more, now it was the game of the other three families.
“A hundred million.” Nangong Tingli gritted his teeth and offered.
That was also the best he could afford, the whole family needed to suffer for that, but he knew he had to get those elixirs, no way he could allow the elixirs secured by other families.
Everyone gasped! That was a ridiculously high price.
And yes, no one overbid Nangong Tingli.
People were exclaiming in their hearts Nangong Family was indeed something, they should afford such a high price.
“A hundred million, I’m hearing a hundred million, am I hearing a higher bidding?” Liu Pinyan announced, “A hundred million it is.”
Nangong Tingli finally let out a sigh of relief, he was glad he could get the elixirs with that price, he could not afford more, not a penny more.
Other families all looked perplexed, the Nangong family had always been the strongest one among the Four Families, now they got 10 Foundation Elixirs of Third Grade, they found it harder to catch up with Nangong family.
Even though it was Murong family who had won the first place in the competition, but everyone knew Nangong family ranked first on terms of overall strength. And they knew the person who had won the honor for Murong family, Murong Qingyan, was dying to settle some scores with her family.
Liu Pinyan, who was standing on the stage now was enjoying the outcome.
This price was better than he had expected.
According to the rule, the Auction House kept 5 percent cut, that was a fat payback.
And that was the climax of the auction, there were several other items after the elixirs, but none of that was as precious as the elixirs for sure.
Finally the last item was on stage.
It was a small box.
People stared at the box and looked confused, was that box the last item?
Liu Pinyan opened the box and a scroll of parchment showed up, “This scroll is our last item, or more accurately, this is only part of the scroll, it records the whereabouts of Nether Fire ranking the third of Power Fires.
“The prices starts from ten thousand coins considering it’s not in perfect condition.”
“Twenty thousand.” There soon came a bid.
Nether Fire was pretty powerful, but it was not easy to wield, a dangerous item. There were people died from it. Plus the scroll was not in perfect condition, the audience did not show great interest in it.
