The hall was packed with people. There were only seats on the first floor, and private rooms were located on the second floor and above.

The first floor was bustling at this time, and many people noticed the only private room on the fifth floor that was lit.

"What's going on? There's someone on the fifth floor?"

"What important person is here?"

Everyone looked at each other.

As everyone knows, there are only five private rooms on the fifth floor of the Wanxiang Auction House, which are reserved only for the most distinguished people recognized by the auction house. Even the prince cannot go to the fifth floor.

"I know..." an insider said mysteriously, "It's the young master from the auction house who's here!"

"That mysterious young master? Why is he here?"

"I guess it's because this auction is very important."

"How did you know?"

"Well, I'm not the only one who knows this. Just now, Young Master Yan and the Second Prince had an argument at the door. Everyone saw it."

"What does the young master look like? Is he good-looking?"

"Why are they arguing? Why would the Second Prince argue with Young Master Yan at this time?"

"Come one by one, don't rush."

A group of people gathered around the man unknowingly. His voice was not loud, but the people around him could hear clearly: "Young Master Yan is naturally a celestial being with a bright and beautiful appearance. As for why they had a dispute?"

He paused and said in an ambiguous tone: "It seems to be for a man——"

"What!" The people around were shocked.

"Are you sure? Did you see it clearly?"

"Well, I was at the scene. It seemed that the Second Prince was trying to take a man away by force, but Young Master Yan refused to let him, and the two of them started fighting!"

"Hiss——" Everyone gasped, "I didn't expect that these two people are..."

"But aren't the Second Prince and Third Miss Shen in love?"

"How can we know the affairs of the rich and powerful? Maybe they are just trying to hide their true orientation."

"Miss Shen was there just now, but the Second Prince didn't even say a few words to her. He was only focused on catching that man."

"Oh my god, what kind of exiled immortal is that person they are fighting for?"

"I heard he was just an unremarkable boy."

"I heard? Didn't you see it with your own eyes?"

"How could she be fought over by Young Master Yan and the Second Prince at the same time if she is not good-looking?"

"Well, there were too many people surrounding them. I was outside, so I couldn't see clearly, but it must be close."

"You are stupid, maybe that person has other outstanding qualities."

"Hey - who won in the end?"

"Of course it is..." The man deliberately dragged out the words, making the people around him very anxious, "Young Master Yan!"

He said proudly: "Although the Second Prince is a member of the royal family, the Wanxiang Auction House is spread throughout the Longxuan Empire. Moreover, this is Young Master Yan's territory. How could someone be robbed right under his nose?"

"There's actually such a great play to listen to. It's really worth the trip, it's really worth the trip!"

……

On the fifth floor, Yan Liang handed a list to Shen Mian, which listed the items to be auctioned today and their order.

The first one is Shen Mian’s elixir.

Later on, there were some precious herbs, minerals, and magical instruments.

She looked at the finale item, which was the Xuan-level sixth-grade magical weapon, the Hengling Bow, which was said to be made by a master weapon refiner.

She suddenly caught sight of a familiar-looking herb and immediately became alert. "Orchid grass!"

Isn’t this one of the hard-to-find medicinal ingredients in Jiuqu Qingyun Dan!

Although Jiuqu Qingyun Pill is only a third-grade Xuan-grade pill, the rarity of the medicinal materials in it is no less than that of sixth-grade Xuan-grade pills. Shen Mian has not yet gathered all the medicinal materials on the pill recipe.

Yan Liang asked: "You want this orchid grass?"

Shen Mian nodded: "My master needs this orchid grass to make pills. I have been looking for it for a long time, but I didn't expect to come across it here."

The auction started soon. A bright-looking woman walked up to the auction platform and her voice, which was full of spiritual power, spread throughout the venue: "Wanxiang Auction House welcomes you all. Please keep quiet. I will introduce the first item of this auction to you."

The woman was tall, had a clear voice and a pretty face, and she immediately attracted everyone's attention. She was Yun Ling, the famous auctioneer of Wanxiang Auction House.

Shen Xianyue sat in a private room on the third floor, looking at the bright and beautiful woman on the auction table with dissatisfaction: "Fox spirit!"

This time, only Rongyue followed her. Hearing this, Rongyue rolled her eyes in her heart.

"I'm sure you've all heard that this auction will sell top-grade elixirs. We won't keep you waiting any longer. The first item for sale is a top-grade elixir brought by a mysterious alchemist!"

Yun Ling clapped her hands, and soon several people came up carrying plates filled with white jade pill bottles.

"so much!"

"Is it really the best elixir?"

"How can something confirmed by Vientiane Auction House be fake?"

"Please rest assured," Yun Ling said with a smile, "Every bottle of elixir is personally inspected by the auction house's master alchemist. We will never let you down, and Wanxiang Auction House will not do anything to damage its reputation."

"Oh my god, so many top-grade elixirs!"

Inside the private room, Fu Chengling also stood up and looked at the pill, his eyes filled with a determination to get it.

Shen Feng also stared at the white jade medicine bottle intently, wondering how to find out the identity of the mysterious alchemist.

Huang Zhong, the alchemist of the Shen family, was also very excited: "Master, if I can get this top-grade elixir to study, my alchemy skills may be able to break through the bottleneck! By then, refining the eighth-grade elixir will not be a problem!"

"Don't worry, Master Huang, I will naturally get it for you." Shen Feng said, stroking his beard.

"Thank you, Master!"

Yun Ling also introduced on the auction stage: "Most of these pills are yellow-grade first- and second-grade pills, but the quality of top-grade pills allows them to have medicinal effects beyond the first-grade! In other words, when you get the second-grade pill Huiyuan Dan, the effect it can exert is even equivalent to the third-grade pill Guiyuan Dan!"

Everyone was so excited that someone even shouted, "Ms. Yunling! We got it! Let's get started!"

Yun Ling smiled and said, "Since you are so anxious, I won't say much. There are a total of one hundred bottles of pills, five pills in each bottle, ten bottles for one auction, the base price for the first-level pill is two thousand taels, and the base price for the second-level pill is three thousand taels."

"The first items to be auctioned are ten bottles of first-level medicinal pills."

As soon as Yun Ling finished speaking, someone couldn't wait to shout: "Two thousand one hundred taels!"

"Two thousand two hundred taels!"

"Two thousand four hundred taels!"

……

Shen, the mysterious alchemist, Mian, was watching the crazy bidding from the fifth floor and exclaimed: "Based on this trend, it seems I can make a lot of money."

Qi Sui sighed: "I thought I made enough money, but it turns out I still don't make as much as the alchemists."

"Don't do that," Shen Mian said, "The medicinal materials and furnace for alchemy cost a lot of money. Besides, the price only goes up because it's put up for auction. If I sell it separately, I'm afraid it won't sell for that much."

"Talismans should be rarer than elixirs, right?" Shen Mian asked, "Last time I went to the Treasure Pavilion, I only saw a few dozen talismans, and they were just restocked."

Yan Liang said: "Talisman masters are rare, so talismans are naturally scarce."
