Urban Super Medical Sage-Chapter 789 - 783: Beginning (4 more - s)

"Inferiority is one aspect, on the other hand, Nangong Wu has a sect in the Buddha Domain. Moreover, as far as I know, with sound transmission, the Young Sect Master of that sect in the Buddha Domain has his eyes on her. Anyone daring to pursue her might face retaliation from a sect of the Buddha Domain. The sects of the Buddha Domain are not like the forces of the Nan’e Ancient Capital. The concentration of Spiritual Energy in the Buddha Domain is more than ten times that of the other Four Great Domains. There are also the Martial Path God Stele and various powerful blessings from Ancient and Primordial Ancient times. The Buddha Domain is far more powerful than the other Four Great Ancient Nations. Even a small sect from the Buddha Domain is not something the South E Ancient Country can afford to provoke," Su Wanqing said softly, her voice a grave warning.

"Hmm!" Su Chen nodded.

"Su Chen, take this seriously. Even if you confront the Nan’e Royal Family, you can grit your teeth and run away at worst. But if a Young Sect Master from a sect in the Buddha Domain takes a dislike to you, that would be truly dangerous. Any word from a Young Sect Master of a sect in the Buddha Domain, and the Four Great Ancient Nations could hunt you down, a relentless pursuit until your death, all to please a Young Sect Master of a sect from the Buddha Domain," Su Wanqing admonished as Su Chen seemed somewhat casual and unconcerned.

"Understood!" Su Chen couldn’t help but give a bitter smile.

"Good to know," Su Wanqing let out a slight sigh of relief.

Deep down, she had a certain fondness for Su Chen, after all, Su Chen had helped her twice, both times changing her fate.

Once, by preventing her marriage to a man she did not like, and another time, by helping her nearly secure the heir status.

Under such great favors, she naturally felt fond of him. freewebnoveℓ.com

It was because of this fondness that she did not want to see Su Chen take a wrong path. With others, she would not worry, but Su Chen gave her the impression of fearing neither heaven nor earth...

This fearless character was very attractive, especially to women, but it was also a character that could easily lead to destruction.

She had to issue a solemn warning.

After Su Chen had exchanged words with Li Ping and Su Wanqing for a while,

Someone came up on the auction podium!

It was an elder.

This elder had white hair and beard but looked spirited, especially his bright, deep eyes.

Su Chen’s gaze towards the elder was slightly serious; this elder was very strong!!! At the Eighth Layer of the Vaulted Extreme Realm Peak, extremely close to the Ninth Layer!

"He is Elder Ji, the head of the Sacred Auction House. In other words, he runs the Sacred Auction House, and he is also one of the strongest old monsters in the whole of Nan’e Ancient Capital. Even the current emperor would show him some respect!" Su Wanqing explained, "Each auction at the Sacred Auction is presided over by Elder Ji."

With the arrival of Elder Ji,

Clap clap clap...

The first sound was applause.

Moreover, in the hall, everyone stood up as a sign of respect.

That included Nangong Wu.

Elder Ji first swept his gaze across the audience, noticeably lingering on Nangong Wu for a moment, nodding slightly as if signaling something, while he did not intentionally pay attention to anyone else.

"The annual Sacred Auction has finally arrived again. I have really missed everyone!" Elder Ji said with a smile. The people who came to participate in the auction were basically the same each year, and it was the same group Elder Ji saw each year, so the words ’I have really missed everyone’ were not misplaced.

There was another round of applause, showing that Elder Ji held a high status and was well-respected.

"Similarly, as in previous years, the highest bidder will win. To prevent malicious empty bidding, each of your seats has a small wooden platform in front. When you bid, you need to place your Storage Bag with Black Xuan Stones, Xuan Qing Commerce Guild Xuan Tickets, Sacred Auction House Divine Notes, and Nan’e Royal Family Imperial Notes on the small platform. It will automatically verify to ensure that you can afford the bid you make," Elder Ji explained.

Su Chen nodded slightly, more formal than he had imagined.

Indeed, the auction feared malicious bidding, where someone without enough money would frivolously bid just to hike up the price and make a rival pay more. To prevent such malicious hiking, each bid must be backed by readily available money; it was a good method.

And the auction recognizing only Black Xuan Stones and Xuan Tickets, Divine Notes, and Imperial Notes also indirectly reflected the status of the Royal Family, the Xuan Qing Commerce Guild, and the Sacred Auction House in the Nan E Ancient Capital.

"Now, without further ado, I imagine everyone is eager? First, the first auction item!!!" Then, under everyone’s expectant gaze, Elder Ji announced loudly.

As Elder Ji spoke, a server from the Sacred Auction House pushed a solid wood stand up, covered with a layer of red cloth.

"This first treasure has a starting bid of ten million Black Xuan Stones." Elder Ji did not unveil the red cloth but first announced the starting bid. Just as he finished stating the starting price, there was some murmuring in the hall; this was just the first item, naturally the least desirable of the sixteen treasures, yet it had a starting bid of ten million Black Xuan Stones—such grandeur suggested that all sixteen items today were truly supreme treasures!

"Ten million Black Xuan Stones?" Su Chen pondered inwardly: normally, Lower-grade Divine Artifacts ranged from five hundred thousand to one million Black Xuan Stones, Middle-grade Divine Artifacts about two million Black Xuan Stones, and Superior Divine Artifacts ten million Black Xuan Stones. The starting bid of ten million Black Xuan Stones meant that it was at least of a Superior Divine Artifact level.

The next moment.

Elder Ji lifted the red cloth.

Below the red cloth, there lay an oval egg, the size of two fists, marked with bluish-gray stains and covered with many patterns.

"This is a Demon Beast Egg from the ancient era, found in ancient ruins. It is not known what type of Demon Beast this egg belonged to. Moreover, this egg is already dead. However, even so, the egg has not decayed for ten thousand years, and it even emits a faint fragrance. That alone confirms it as a supreme treasure. The starting bid is ten million Black Xuan Stones. The bidding starts now," Elder Ji continued.

At the same time.

Jiuyou suddenly spoke out, "Young boy Su, go for it!!! Good item, this is a Devouring Beast Egg, hmm, although it’s a dead egg, it definitely contains a tremendous amount of energy. If you devour it, your strength will definitely improve! Such a great item, a starting bid of ten million Black Xuan Stones, they really don’t know the treasure they have!"

"A Devouring Beast Egg?" Su Chen’s eyes paused slightly, somewhat shocked. The Devouring Beast had left an important mark in the ancient era, a time filled with Giant Demons and numerous powerful beings, where the Devouring Beast stood at the very pinnacle. Even a dead Devouring Beast Egg was indeed a supreme treasure, especially suitable for Su Chen.
