Chapter 184: The Frenzied Bidding

The moment that the Crystalized Moonlight was placed on the stage, the entire auction hall descended into silence, before the sound of deep breaths sounded all over.

This treasure was different from the others. While everything that had appeared so far was valuable and magnificent, it was still at another grade than this Crystalized Moonlight.

Crystalized Moonlight was a treasure that no one would be willing to part with, but Luo Xiao had still chosen to put one up for auction after considering the situation.

These small jewel-like treasures were indeed valuable, and he was actually able to use all the ones he had gotten. He had gotten more than fifty pieces, and while one more would, naturally, be able to help him, it would not bring as much benefit as it would if he put in front of these people.

One piece of Crystalized Moonlight was enough to deal with all kinds of promotions, and everyone would go into a frenzy when realizing that it was a genuine piece.

The bidding war for this one item was so overwhelming that Luo Xiao began to fear whether or not the bidding factions would start an actual war after the end of the auction, but this was the outcome he had hoped for.

"You are very generous to put this Crystalized Moonlight up for sale."

Jiang Yao understood Luo Xiao's thoughts well, but he still wanted to praise his younger lover. It was a fact that he could benefit from consuming this Crystalized Moonlight, but since he already had more than fifty pieces, one more or less would not affect much.

Instead, he could use this one Crystalized Moonlight to end the auction on a whole new level, and at the same time gain a tremendous amount of wealth that could help him reach a higher rank faster.

While both Jiang Yao and Luo Xiao understood that they could not rush cultivation, there were still a few methods to help solidify one's foundation while also increasing the purity of the spiritual energy.

At the same time, the many treasures and herbs collected could help him advance his alchemy and medicine concoction, which also would result in his strength advancing.

Taking everything into consideration, the Crystalized Moonlight was worth selling.

Previously, each item had been fought for by the bidders with fervor, but now that this crystalized moonlight had appeared, the fervor had turned into a frenzy, and the auctioneer did not even manage to call out the various bids, before others yelled an even higher offer.

"Xiaoxiao, do you think that it is the ones who are most eager that will end up with this treasure?"

Jiang Yao was in a great mood after removing the peeking assassin, and he leaned forward so that his mouth was right next to Luo Xiao's ear, and the breath he released while speaking was caressing the younger man's skin, causing him to tremble slightly.

"I don't think so."

Luo Xiao had a weird feeling in his body, but he quickly tossed it aside, before he seriously observed the auction hall's floor below. After looking at the various bidders he finally answered.

"I think that the ones who are the loudest now are hoping to benefit, but in fact, the ones with the most wealth are waiting for the heat to die down, before they begin throwing out their real weight."

Jiang Yao nodded his head in approval.

"Then, who do you think has the highest chance of succeeding?"

When Jiang Yao met Luo Xiao for the first time, he was a blank piece of white paper. He was untainted by the outside world, pure and naive.

However, as he had been together with Luo Xiao, Jiang Yao had introduced various colors to his life, and slowly the blank white piece of paper had turned into the most brilliant and vivid painting.

Even so, Jiang Yao still wished to help Luo Xiao understand many subtleties and hints that could be found in a person's actions, so as to prepare him for the many schemes and traps waiting in the outside world, and he continued to ask questions such as these to improve his ability to observe.

Luo Xiao was well aware that the demon was doing all of this to help him, and he moved his gaze back to the audience once more.

There were many experts in the seats, but only a few were patiently sitting still and seemed to be confident. Even so, Luo Xiao could not help but frown as he looked at the various private rooms around the upper floor.

"I am not certain, but it would either be the middle-aged man who is seated on the fourth seat on the seventh row from the front, or it will be someone in the private rooms."

Jiang Yao could not help but nod his head in approval. He placed a gentle kiss on Luo Xiao's cheek and hugged him tighter.

"My Xiaoxiao is the best," he said with pride in his voice.

Although he did not mention who the final winner would be, the words had already made it clear that they shared the same views, and thus they continued to patiently wait for the auction to end.

Time went by, and the previous payment method also changed from spirit crystals to treasures. When they found that no one was giving up, the bids began to contain both spirit crystals and treasures, but still, nobody was willing to back down.

The bidding had entered a deadlock where everyone was putting forward their entire wealth, but new bidders continued to appear, causing the whole atmosphere to be boiling with intensity.

"One Saint Rank Spirit Crystal."

Finally, a hoarse voice reverberated throughout the auction hall. Although the bid was one single spirit crystal, the rank was that of a Saint, so the shock it brought forth was simply enough to bring everyone silence in disbelief.
