"This is made from the highest quality Profound Jade. Not only does it look good, it's also a magic item. It can be used as a immunity magic skill to any soul technique below the fifth step."
The servant tried his best to promote him.
Hua Ruge thought that this monster was indeed abnormal. Not only would he be able to seize the initiative in battle, he also had an additional Life Protection Rune. Although he might not be able to use that abnormal strength, what if he underestimated his opponent.
Furthermore, the style of the jade pendant matched Tuoba Rui's noble and deep temperament, and looked good wearing it.
"Then let's do it. How much is it?" Hua Ruge said as he picked up his tea cup to drink.
"Customer, five hundred thousand gold coins." The attendant carefully raised the bid.
The tea that Hua Ruge just drank almost sprayed out, he forcefully swallowed it down, and said to the servant: "You're too unlucky, even if the item is good, you can't ask such a high price."
"Customer, you are not familiar with the market price. This piece of jade is rare, and the highest quality one is even rarer. Moreover, this piece of jade is made with fine workmanship, and it has been sold to a refiner for this price." The manservant explained.
Hua Ruge took out an Purple Crystal Card and said: "I'm a frequent customer of yours, I know Master Ji as well, why don't you give me a discount?"
When the attendant saw the Crystal Card and heard the name of the Master Ji again, he became a little hesitant and quickly said, "Then this little one will go and call the shopkeeper over."
"Go." Hua Ruge waved his hand.
The servant left and a person walked up the stairs. He was dressed in a blue Soul Master robe and looked dignified and elegant, like a high and cold goddess, but Hua Ruge knew that this woman did not have a cold temperament but was cold-blooded!
It was none other than Hua Ruge's old acquaintance, Fang Lanxin.
"Oh, Miss Fang, Profound Beast Forest's trip should have been quite a harvest." Hua Ruge was the first to speak.
Fang Lanxin had gone to fight for the Sky City, but was beaten to death by someone else instead. Thinking about it, Fang Lanxin's resentment became worse, as she suddenly received a painful point, Fang Lanxin's face could not help but twitch in anger:
"How do you know I've been there?"
"It was a guess, but I think Miss Fang is very strong. If she were to make a move, she would definitely get something good. Why not take it out and let me have a look?" Hua Ruge had nothing to do today, so he played with her.
"Hua Ruge, you definitely know something, right?" Fang Lanxin squinted his eyes, looking at her with a dangerous glint in his eyes.
She knew that Hua Ruge was definitely not an ordinary person, and wouldn't use the things that he had guessed to say.
Hua Ruge shook his head: "I don't know, I am an honest and straightforward person, I would not know such shameful things."
"Hua Ruge, don't think that I can't kill you." As Fang Lanxin said this, his expression calmed down, proving that she had absolutely no intention to make such a decision.
However, she really didn't dare to do it herself.
She was afraid of the Battle King too much. She felt that no matter what she did, her plans would be discovered, but with her powers, there was still a way to kill Hua Ruge.
"You just can't kill me." Hua Ruge looked indifferent.
With the Soul-Sealing Talisman and levelling up, she would be able to stand in an invincible position against Fang Lanxin. Naturally, she would not be afraid of her.
Furthermore, the two of them had already formed an enmity. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't change the situation. It was useless for her to keep a low profile.
Fang Lanxin took a few deep breaths and stabilized his breathing. He knew that he was no match for her in this dispute, so he decided not to argue with her.
She shifted her gaze from Hua Ruge to the jade pendant on the table and immediately narrowed her eyes: "That's what I wanted to reserve, it's useless even if you look at it."
Hua Ruge raised her eyebrows. This was a habit of hers that she would use when she was unable to determine if it was real or fake.
"I brought money with me today, this thing will soon belong to me." Fang Lanxin said proudly.
She did not lie, because it was going to be Tuoba Rui's birthday soon. She had wanted to buy a gift for a very long time already, and had finally taken a fancy to this jade pendant yesterday. She had come to pay today, but she did not expect that Hua Ruge would also want to buy one.
"No matter how shameless you are, this thing is still in the auction house. Don't make up your mind so early." Hua Ruge leaned on the chair, crossed his legs, and did not seem to take her words to heart.
Fang Lanxin simply sat on the other side of the table, the two of them were in a deadlock.
The shopkeeper arrived very quickly and saw the two of them here. He asked, "Who are you two? Who wants to buy this piece of jade?"
"Me."
The two words' I 'and' I 'came out at the same time.
The shopkeeper was stunned.
"Manager, you don't remember me? Yesterday, I came to visit this piece of jade and I have already reserved it. Today, I have come to pay you." Fang Lanxin said as he took out an amethyst card, but it was not from the auction house.
"I remember you, Miss Fang." People From The Hall of Saints was unavoidably respected even when they reached there.
"That's good then. Collect the money." As she spoke, she handed over the card.
"About this, Miss Fang, you did visit yesterday but did not book it. If you do this to that little brother, it would be unfair to you." The shopkeeper said amiably, his tone polite but not flattering.
Hua Ruge not only felt that his Qing Yun Auction House was awesome, even a small shopkeeper actually didn't give him any face.
Fang Lanxin was a household name, there was almost no one who would not give her face in the capital, she did not expect the shopkeeper to dare.
"I told you then that I was coming to buy it tomorrow. How is that not a reservation?" Fang Lanxin's face did not have much expression, but his voice was firm.
She was used to people praising her and had a domineering aura for a long time.
"The reservation requires a deposit, but Miss Fang doesn't have one. You can say whatever you want, but we can't do that." The shopkeeper's attitude was still neither humble nor arrogant.
Hua Ruge clicked his tongue, what kind of backing did he have to be able to cultivate such confidence?
Fang Lanxin naturally knew that he could not offend the Qing Yun Auction House, so he suppressed his anger and asked: "Then what do you think we should do?"
"This little brother wants to buy it too?" The shopkeeper asked, his tone no different from Fang Lanxin.
"Yes, please agree, Manager." Hua Ruge's words made him feel more comfortable.
Fang Lanxin's smoke billowed as she became more and more afraid of Hua Ruge's character. She also had a premonition that if she did not get rid of this woman soon, she would become a huge threat in the future.
"When we open our doors to do business, we naturally have to find a deal that makes money. Since the two of you want it, we can only give it to the highest bidder." The shopkeeper said. This was the best and most fair method.
"Alright." Fang Lanxin agreed immediately.
Hua Ruge then rubbed his nose and said: "I haven't even collected my starting bid of five hundred thousand yet, when the time comes can I write a promissory note?"
"What a joke. If you don't have the money, why did you come out to buy something?" Fang Lanxin coldly snorted.
The last time she was humiliated like this by Hua Ruge at the auction, she finally had the chance to mock him back.
