The auction house was in an uproar. A Fourth Grade Breaking Realm Pill was already a rare treasure in the Cultivation World!
"Brother!"
Mu Xi, sitting beside Mu Feng, hurriedly grabbed his sleeve, her pale face full of anxiety.
"Don’t bid any more, this Spirit Grass isn’t worth that price..."
Mu Feng turned to look at his sister, the anger in his eyes instantly softening into gentleness.
Mu Xi’s face was even paler than a few days ago, and her once lively eyes had lost their sparkle, only showing an abnormal flush when she coughed occasionally.
"It’s worth it."
Mu Feng said softly, reaching out to stroke his sister’s hair.
"As long as it can cure your illness, anything is worth it."
Tears welled up in Mu Xi’s eyes.
"But you’re trying to reach the Taichu Realm..."
"The realm can be cultivated again, but I only have one sister."
Mu Feng interrupted her, his tone allowing no argument.
In the private booth on the second floor, Young Master Qin squinted his eyes, his gaze scanning back and forth between the Mu siblings.
Beside him, an elderly man in gray whispered.
"Young master, four Fourth Grade Breaking Realm Pills have already exceeded the value of this Spirit Grass. Shall we..."
Young Master Qin raised a hand to stop the elder from speaking further, a cold smile on his lips.
"No hurry, let’s watch a bit more. I want to see how much Mu Feng is willing to sacrifice for his sister."
The auctioneer was so excited that their voice trembled.
"Four Fourth Grade Breaking Realm Pills! Is there a higher bid?"
The room was silent, everyone stunned by Mu Feng’s grand gesture. Just as the auctioneer was about to drop the gavel, Young Master Qin’s voice rang out again.
"Hold on."
Mu Feng’s heart sank suddenly.
Young Master Qin slowly stood up, looking down at Mu Feng.
"Brother Mu Feng is indeed magnanimous. But..."
He deliberately drew out his words.
"I’ve recently taken an interest in Alchemy. This Spirit Grass could serve as practice.
So, four Fourth Grade Breaking Realm Pills, plus... ten High-grade Spirit Stones."
"Shameless!"
Mu Xi couldn’t help but curse softly but was held back by her brother.
Mu Feng’s face was ashen.
He knew Young Master Qin couldn’t practice Alchemy; this was pure harassment. The four Breaking Realm Pills were already his entire savings, and adding ten High-grade Spirit Stones...
"Brother, let’s go."
Mu Xi tugged at her brother’s sleeve, her voice pleading.
"We can find another way for my illness..."
Mu Feng shook his head, eyes filled with determination.
He took out a purple-gold jade box from his bosom. The moment the jade box appeared, the entire auction house’s Spiritual Energy paused.
"A Fifth Grade Purple Thunder Pill."
Mu Feng’s voice wasn’t loud, but it was like thunder resounding in the auction house.
"To counter all your offers."
The room was in an uproar!
"A Fifth Grade Elixir Pill?!"
"My God, did I hear that right?"
"Who exactly is this Mu Feng?"
Even the auctioneer, who had remained calm throughout, widened their eyes in disbelief, stammering.
"Mu... Mr. Mu, are you sure it’s a Fifth Grade Purple Thunder Pill?"
Mu Feng didn’t answer, instead opening the jade box. A purple lightning bolt shot up, turning into a miniature lightning dragon in the air that circled once before slowly dissipating.
The rich Pill Fragrance instantly filled the auction house, invigorating everyone who smelled it.
In the second floor booth, Young Master Qin’s smile froze.
He stared intently at the pill radiating a purple halo, greed in his eyes.
"Young master, this..."
The old man in gray was equally shocked.
Young Master Qin quickly regained composure, albeit with even more greed in his eyes.
"Interesting, very interesting. I didn’t expect a small Mu Feng to have such a Supreme Treasure."
In the auction house, Mu Feng closed the jade box, coldly looking at Young Master Qin.
"Young Master Qin, still want to raise the bid?"
Young Master Qin suddenly laughed, his laughter filled with insincere praise.
"Brother Mu Feng is indeed deep and unfathomable. Since you value this Spirit Grass so much, how could I take it from you? This Spirit Grass is yours."
When he said "yours," he emphasized it, as if granting charity.
Mu Feng suppressed his anger; the most important thing now was to obtain the Spirit Grass. The other issues could be dealt with later.
The auctioneer quickly struck the gavel.
"Sold! The Heavenly Life Extension Spirit Root goes to Mr. Mu Feng!"
