Pill God Returns

"Daddy, those people just now were Wu Chen, Zhou Jie and the others."    

A middle-aged man was sitting on a soft leather chair. There was an indescribable sharp Qi radiating from his body. This Qi was very powerful, even stronger than Gu Batian's.    

Beside him was a young man. This young man was wearing a black robe, and his appearance was somewhat familiar. If Wu Chen was here, he would definitely recognize this person as Zhao Chonglou. He was the A Peerless Genius from the Zhao Family who had once been defeated by him.    

Since he was Zhao Chonglou, the identity of this middle-aged man was obvious. The current patriarch of Zhao Family, Zhao Fengguo.    

"Who are the two girls with him?" Zhao Fengguo asked.    

Zhao Chonglou replied, "Father, one of them is from the Mu Family of Canglan Dynasty, and the other one is from the Mi Family of Mi Lan Dynasty."    

"Mi Family, isn't that the imperial family of Mi Lan, Wu Chen?"    

Zhao Chonglou nodded and said, "Father, you are right. The father of this woman is the Southern King of the Mi Lan Dynasty. She is also conferred the title of princess."    

"Princess?"    

Zhao Fengguo did not say anything else and just waited quietly for the auction to begin.    

It wasn't long before the time was up.    

At this time, a beautiful woman slowly walked towards the auction stage. Seeing her walk over, everyone knew that the auction was about to begin.    

"Isn't this Miss Ya Fang, one of the top beauties of The Wind And Cloud Ancient City?"    

"Hehe, I never thought that Miss Ya Fang would be the one hosting the auction this time. This is great."    

"Miss Ya Fang is the one hosting the auction. Even if she doesn't buy anything, it's still not bad to come and take a look."    

"Yes, yes."    

Wu Chen shrugged his shoulders. Whether this woman was beautiful or not had nothing to do with him. Besides, he had two beautiful women by his side.    

"Hello everyone. Welcome to our auction house, Cloudsea Auction House. I am He Yafang, and I have been invited to host this auction."    

Standing on the auction stage, He Yafang made a simple self-introduction. Her gentle voice was clearly heard by everyone through the reflection of the crystal.    

Everyone's spirits were lifted and they stared at He Yafang without blinking. This was a beauty and just looking at her made them feel good.    

"Before the auction starts, I want to explain that this year's auction will be divided into three rounds. Gold, silver, and silver notes are used in general and the exchange price is the same as the market. Silver is equal to banknotes, and one tael of gold is equal to one thousand taels of silver. Of course, it would be best if there was a Crystal Coin. One Crystal Coin is equivalent to one thousand taels of gold."    

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was in an uproar.    

"Crystal Coin, are you kidding me? Is there anyone below the Astral Reaching Stage who can possess a Crystal Coin?"    

"That's right. Only those at the Astral Reaching Stage and above are qualified to possess something like a Crystal Coin. None of us have such a thing."    

In the private room, Wu Chen frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything. Silver and silver notes were some low-level currency. Usually, they were only circulated among cultivators below the True Martial Stage, and they weren't as precious as gold. This was something everyone knew.    

However, once one reached the True Martial Stage, the common currency was not silver, but gold. Only gold was worthy of their status.    

As for the higher grade Astral Reaching Stage and the higher realms, they used a higher grade currency.    

He Yafang chuckled and did not mind. She continued, "Of course, if there is anything precious that needs to be auctioned. We can also take it out for auction. The rules of our auction are the same as the rules of other auctions. Those who have less than one million taels of silver will take 20% of the profits, one million to five million. Those who take 15% of the profits, from 5 million to 10 million, take 10% of the profits, and those who take more than 10 million. Take 5% of the profits. "    

Earning money was the most important way for their auction house to earn money. Their auction house relied on this to make profits.    

Everyone was secretly evil-minded. Earning money was too much. No wonder the auction house made so much money. It was one of the few most profitable industries in the continent.    

Wu Chen did not say anything. He just waited patiently.    

"Alright, I won't talk about this anymore. Please let us auction items."    

A beautiful service lady walked over slowly with an exquisite tray in her hand.    

The crowd quieted down one after another. They all knew that it was time for the real auction.    

"This is the first auction item of our auction, a map of Hengling Domain. This map is very detailed. It is related to all the countries in the Hengling Domain. It's a detailed map of the surrounding areas. The starting price was 10,000 silver, and each increment would be no less than 1,000 silver. Those who are interested can bid for it."    

He Yafang took out a scroll and opened it while introducing it.    

"Tsk, I thought it was some treasure, but it turns out to be just a broken map."    

"A broken map costs ten thousand silver. This auction house is really not an ordinary black market."    

"When you go outside, you can easily spend a hundred taels of silver to get a very good map. But here, you need ten thousand taels of silver. This is really too black."    

"That's right, that's right."    

Everyone was talking at once, expressing their disdain. Of course, there were also some people who were interested in this map, and their eyes were staring straight at it.    

After listening to everyone's discussion, He Yafang was not in a hurry at all. In Hengling Domain, between countries, between regions. The relationships were complicated. Some places were dangerous and some places were dangerous. These were all things that needed to be considered. One had to come out and train. Without the guidance of the map, it was impossible. Therefore, she wasn't worried that no one would buy it.    

"Ten thousand silver."    

"Eleven thousand silver."    

Very quickly, someone called out a price. If one wanted to go out and train, without the guidance of the map, it would be very difficult.    

"F * ck, someone really bought it."    

"That's of course. If you go out and adventure, without a map to guide you, you wouldn't even know how you died."    

"Of course I know the importance of the map, but there's no need to spend so much silver. Ten thousand taels of silver is enough to buy a hundred high-quality maps."    

"I'm willing to pay for it, what can I do?"    

"I'll just watch and not say anything."    

...    

Wu Chen shook his head. He wasn't interested in the map. Soon, he would leave Wind Cloud Empire and Hengling Domain. The map of Hengling Domain naturally had no value to him.    

Under the continuous bidding of some people, this map was bought by a Fifth Empyrean of Spirit Rotation Stage warrior for 27,000 silver.
