"The Strongest Martial Emperor in the City"!
When cultivators reach the Martial Emperor level, external objects are of less and less help to them. The external objects that can attract them are often very precious. These resources are the foundation of the cultivation forces and will not be sold easily, let alone directly put them for sale in an auction house.
Without these resources, it would be difficult to attract powerful practitioners. Luo Fei felt helpless about this. If she wanted to achieve success in the auction house, it would only be more difficult.
The boutique auction started soon. Just as Luo Fei said, this auction could indeed be called a boutique auction. The items auctioned were basically helpful to both high-level Martial Emperors and low-level Martial Emperors. They were already the most precious items in public auctions.
The so-called fine products are only relative. They are not very attractive to some low-level Martial Emperors with profound background, let alone to those strong people above the level of low-level Martial Emperors.
However, since Luo Fei invited VIPs, and these VIPs came, they were obviously interested in the items in the fine auction, so the bidding was very fierce, and basically they offered high bids from the beginning.
In this regard, it is different from the auction that Yang Qi participated in in the Wuhong Star Domain. It must be said that technological civilization is indeed doing better than spiritual civilization in this regard.
One item after another was auctioned, and no treasure was lost during the process. Not long after, the fake Martial Emperor Pill that Yang Qi took out was the last one to be auctioned.
"This pill is called the Pseudo Martial Emperor Pill." The Martial Emperor Peak cultivator on the booth paused for a moment before continuing, "According to our auction house's inspection..."
The host explained the effect of the Pseudo Emperor Wu Pill and the consequences of its failure. The auction house dared not conceal this, otherwise it would only damage the auction house's reputation. This is the Royal Auction House. Once its reputation is damaged, it will affect the entire Qiankong Empire. This responsibility is not something that the Royal Auction House can bear, let alone His Highness Luo Fei.
After the host finished introducing the effects of the Pseudo Martial Emperor Pill and announced the start of the auction, the light curtain on the booth did not change at all.
Looking at the light screen that didn't change at all, Yang Qi couldn't help but frown and said in a deep voice, "Will it fail to sell?"
"Don't worry, Brother Daoist Xuxing, it will definitely not be a waste of money." Luo Fei said with a faint smile.
Hearing this, Yang Qi was slightly stunned, and then he understood that Luo Fei might have arranged people among these VIPs, so naturally there would be no phenomenon of unsold items.
Luo Fei seemed to see what Yang Qi was thinking, and explained, "Your Highness has not arranged anyone, but there is another prince who has also come to participate in this auction. If nothing unexpected happens, his target is this Pseudo Martial Emperor Pill."
Um
Yang Qi was slightly startled. He didn't expect that there was another prince who was also interested in the Pseudo Martial Emperor Pill.
"In this case, aren't you afraid that the prince will figure out something through the fake Martial Emperor Pill? That will not do you any good." Yang Qi looked at Luo Fei and said.
"When I heard the news, I did feel regretful for a moment." Luo Fei nodded slightly, then changed the subject and said, "But I soon got over it. There are more than just one or two princes competing for the throne. Sometimes, eating alone makes people more likely to hate you."
As Luo Fei was a senior executive of the Royal Auction House and she was in contact with Yang Qi, she could easily get this fake Martial Emperor Pill through Yang Qi. However, if the news got out, she would probably become the target of public criticism among the many princes.
No matter how confident Luo Fei is, she is not to the point where she can ignore other princes. Now that there is another prince to help her share the pressure, it is actually a good thing for her.
After hearing Luo Fei's explanation, Yang Qi couldn't help but nodded. At this moment, the light curtain finally changed and directly turned into 10 billion crystals.
As people began to bid, the price on the screen began to change rapidly, and in a blink of an eye, it broke through the 30 billion crystal mark.
Although this price is still quite far from the top-grade Taoist weapon that Luo Fei had bid before, Yang Qi was very satisfied. After all, the price was still changing, and he believed that the final transaction price would not be much lower than Luo Fei's previous bid.
"A top-grade Taoist weapon!"
At this moment, the light curtain suddenly changed. It turned out that a cultivator directly bid for a top-grade Taoist weapon. Since there was no restriction on bidding only with Yuan Jing, it was also possible to use Taoist weapons to bid.
Luo Fei looked at the price on the screen, his eyes fixed, and he said in a deep voice, "He made a move."
Hearing Luo Fei's words, Yang Qi knew that the "he" Luo Fei was talking about was another prince. However, the prince's bid was not low. He directly offered a top-grade Taoist weapon, which was the same price as the previous private transaction between Luo Fei and him.
Following the prince's bid, the light curtain seemed to be frozen. Although those who came to the fine auction were all VIPs of the Royal Auction House, it was very rare to see a top-grade Taoist weapon at an auction of this level. With such a high price, other practitioners naturally hesitated.
Upon seeing this, the host at the booth immediately promoted the effect of the Pseudo Martial Emperor Pill again, hoping to encourage other practitioners to bid again. Unfortunately, the price was already prohibitive for other practitioners, and finally the Pseudo Martial Emperor Pill was sold at the price of a top-grade Taoist weapon.
Yang Qi was naturally very satisfied with the transaction price. Although the auction house would deduct part of the handling fee, the final wealth he would get would still not be low.
After the auction of the Pseudo Wu Emperor Pill was over, Yang Qi did not linger any longer and left the boutique auction directly, preparing to collect the auction proceeds of the Pseudo Wu Emperor Pill. However, Yang Qi did not notice that when he and Luo Fei left the boutique auction, a cultivator in the auction house glanced in their direction.
At the same time, information about Yang Qi was passed on through that practitioner.
Deep in the void, in a broken star, a man in a black and gray robe was slightly closing his eyes. Suddenly, he opened his eyes abruptly and checked the message talisman.
“Five-star Martial Emperor in the late stage!” Emperor Duankong’s eyes flashed with a gleam of brilliance, and he said with a cold smile, “It seems that the cultivator who killed Geng Yue was really Yang Qi!”
According to the intelligence from the Wuhong Star Domain, Geng Yue was tracking down a five-star late-stage Martial Emperor practitioner named Xuxing Emperor, who later died. The practitioner who now took out the Pseudo Martial Emperor Pill is also a five-star late-stage Martial Emperor. It is obvious that these two practitioners are the same person.
Perhaps in the eyes of other practitioners, a late Five-Star Martial Emperor practitioner could not possibly threaten Geng Yue, a mid-Six-Star Martial Emperor, but Emperor Duankong had fought against Emperor Wu Shi before and knew clearly how powerful the lineage of Emperor Wu Shi was. Especially since Yang Qi himself was a demon Martial Emperor who was not weaker than Emperor Wu Shi, it was not impossible for a late Five-Star Martial Emperor to have the power to kill Geng Yue!
