“Oh, so you were here?” Liu Qingcang’s voice suddenly came from behind her, and she whipped around, startled. “I finally found you.”

Yan Xin was baffled by his words.

“Where’s that other guy?” She’d always felt that the person who’d tried to hit Qingcang with a car was strangely familiar, so she wanted to ask him about the man the next time she saw him.

“Oh, he’s at the hospital,” Qingcang answered, then took Yan Xin’s hand. “Where have you been these past few days? You didn’t answer your calls or text messages.” As he said this, he walked toward the hotel’s main door.

“They said that I don’t have an invitation and they won’t let me in,” Yan Xin said quietly.

“It should be fine now.” As soon as he said that, they entered the hotel without any problems. “See? Who dares to stop you?” Qingcang asked, his words arrogant, but Yan Xin didn’t take them to heart. Instead, her eyes were attracted by the splendor of the banquet hall.

“Wow! This has to be worth a lot of money, right?” There was a hint of uncertainty in her tone. In order for her to regain her previous level of magic power, she did want some gold to use, but right now, as she looked upon the hall, she only wanted a small bite of the proverbial cake.

“Are you really that strapped for cash?” Hearing her words, Qingcang remembered that he had looked through everything he’d investigated about her. Somehow, he felt that she was perpetually lacking in funds.

“Of course. But anyway, what’s going on today?” Yan Xin actually liked being with Qingcang. This unlucky guy was stupid and had a lot of money; If she saved him a few more times, then she could refine more magical pills and materials for herself.

Qingcang shrugged in response. “I don’t know. The Xie family seems to have invited a very powerful person to auction something off here.” As for what it was, it was still a secret for the time being. After saying that, he looked at the stage in the middle of the room thoughtfully.

“I see,” Yan Xin muttered, completely disinterested. As she was right now, she didn’t quite have the power to do something like stealing treasures.

“I’ve arranged a seat for you in the corner. You can sit there.” After saying that, before Yan Xin could react, Qingcang walked away and greeted a middle-aged man.

She looked at the venue. There was nothing unusual about it, but she wanted to broaden her horizons, so she supposed experiencing something like this was a good thing.

Not long after, the auction kicked off with music blaring. At this time, the host was on the stage, talking with high spirits. The crowd was hanging off his words while Yan Xin was feeling a little sleepy.

However, when a man clad in a black robe came on stage, her eyes instantly widened as she jolted awake. She was very interested in the person in front of her.

“Do you know him?” At some point, Qingcang had appeared by her side with a cocktail.

She shook her head. “I don’t, but his aura is very familiar.” What she said was true, but Qingcang did not hear the second half of her sentence.

“That man is someone that the Xie family saved five years ago,” he explained. “This person has ruined many of my plans.” In fact, this was the reason why he’d gone out of his way to have Yan Xin come here. He had investigated that black-clad man before, but couldn’t find anything substantial, much like his investigations into Yan Xin. it was only when he received the Xie family’s invitation that he remembered this.

“Wait,” Yan Xin suddenly interrupted him, fully focused on listening to what that person was saying.

“We have refined a revolutionary type of pill here. It can extend one’s life and also reduce illness,” that person was saying in a deep voice. At his words, the hall exploded into a cacophony of noise.

“How is this possible?”

“Can one really live for a hundred years?!”

All sorts of voices resounded out in the hall, but as soon as the man raised his hand, everyone instantly fell silent. The atmosphere was very strange. Meanwhile, Yan Xin had been looking at his head, which was covered with a black hat.

“This type of medicinal pill, along with tens of thousands of medicinal ingredients, can only be obtained once. Please take a look.” The black-robed person slowly raised both of his hands, and a crystal pillar slowly rose from the middle of the stage. In the middle of the crystal pillar sat a white bottle.

Then, as if it was being controlled by something invisible, the bottle cap slowly twisted itself open, revealing a small black pill to the audience’s eyes. 

“Is such an ordinary thing useful?”

“Yes, it’s black like ordinary medicine. What effect does it have?”
