Adorably Cute Baby: Mommy's Going Against the Heavens

"Perhaps. The starting bid alone is 20,000 high-grade spirit stones. With the Shen family's current strength, they might not be able to afford that much!" Situ Jingtian glanced at his younger brother and said.

Situ Jingxuan was anxious. Seeing the price of the thousand-year-old dragon bone soaring, he could no longer contain himself. He slammed his fist on the table and shouted, "Twenty-nine thousand!"

The sudden bid silenced the private room for a moment.

Situ Jingtian turned his head sharply, staring at his younger brother in disbelief, his brows furrowed, and his tone tinged with anger: "Jingxuan! Are you crazy? What do you want this thousand-year-old dragon bone for?"

Situ Jingxuan completely ignored his brother's question and answered confidently, "Of course it's for Yunxi!"

"Nonsense!" Situ Jingtian hissed, his face grim. "Do you know the value of this thousand-year-old dragon bone? You..."

"Brother, just leave it alone!" Situ Jingxuan interrupted him impatiently. "I know what I'm doing!"

Of course he would help Yunxi with whatever she needed!

"you……"

Looking at his younger brother's infatuated expression, Situ Jingtian cursed him inwardly as a "wasteful brat," but could only sigh helplessly.

He knew that once his younger brother made up his mind, nothing could change it.

In the end, he gave up trying to stop Situ Jingxuan!

After all, he also had his own selfish motives in this matter!

As the bidding grew increasingly intense, Shen Yunxi calmly sipped her tea and ate her pastries.

Di Xuanshang frowned slightly, his deep gaze falling on Shen Yunxi's calm face. He asked with a hint of doubt, "Are you really not going to bid for this thousand-year-old dragon bone? It's a rare treasure that would greatly benefit your cultivation."

Shen Yunxi smiled gently and was about to explain when she was interrupted. She saw Xue Rong and Lan Yu, the two little ones, each carrying a bulging bag, walking in panting.

Xue Rong threw the bag heavily to the ground, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and complained, "Master, this thing is really heavy!"

Lan Yu chimed in, "I'm exhausted. My wings are about to break."

Looking at the two little ones' disheveled appearance, Shen Yunxi couldn't help but smile and said, "Thank you for your hard work!"

She opened the bag, and it was full of top-grade spirit stones!

The two little ones exclaimed excitedly, "Master, we burned down their vault! I even managed to bring all this back in the chaos, and nobody noticed us!"

"Yes, well done!" Shen Yunxi praised without hesitation.

The task she assigned them was simple: to go to the imperial treasury and Elder Songhe's treasury in the Soul Suppressing Hall, to dismantle the chaos, and to retrieve some spirit stones.

These people have trampled on Shen Yunxi before, and now all they're doing is trying to get some interest!

At this moment, Xiao Chuhuang, Xiao Chuhuan, and Elder Songhe were still unaware that their 'backyard' was on fire, and were still arguing heatedly!

Di Xuanshang tapped his long fingers lightly on the table, a barely perceptible smile flashing in his deep eyes. After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "These spirit stones probably can't be used directly."

Shen Yunxi blinked in confusion and asked, puzzled, "Why?"

Di Xuanshang picked up a spirit stone and toyed with it between his fingers, his tone slightly mocking: "Take a closer look."

Shen Yunxi leaned closer to take a look, but still found nothing unusual, which made her even more puzzled: "Is there anything wrong?"
