Divine Harem: My Sect of Heavenly Beauties

Chapter 28: The Auction (1)

Zhou Zun stroked his beard and gestured with his hand as two young women brought the first item of the Auction on the stage. It was covered in special red cloth, which prevented others from checking the item using their spirit sense.

"Let's begin our Auction with an item that I'm sure will surprise you all. Ladies, take off the cloth."

Zhou Zun waved his hand in enthusiasm as he looked at the first item with a smile on his face. The two women did as he said and took off the cloth, revealing a thin golden sword. It radiated a mystic aura, showing its worth.

The crowd began to make noise the moment the sword was revealed. They obviously recognised it and were very excited, making plans to buy it.

Zhou Zun smirked, seeing the excitement in the people's eyes. He then explained about the sword.

"This sword is named Sefter Golden Sword upon the name of Golden Sefter Spiritual Creature who is known for their flying speed. As you all know, flight before Core Formation Realm is impossible but this sword is a flying Magic Treasure which can help you in your endeavours. You just need to pour your Qi in it, and you will be able to soar high in the skies...."

Zhou Zun continued to brag about the sword's effects and even added some extra things just to get everyone excited about it. However, only the normal crowd was excited. The VIP rooms were as silent as before. They were elitist and already had the flying Treasures with them, so they didn't really care about the sword.

Soon, the bidding began as the people tried their best to get the sword and fulfil their dreams of flying in the sky.

Shen Yu sat on his sofa as he munched on a yellow fruit that looked similar to an apple. He had a calm expression, but inwardly, he was resisting the urge to facepalm.

'I could have just flown to the town with Yue'er. Why did I forget I can actually fly?'

On the other hand, Ying Yue shared completely different thoughts as she looked at the sword. She was smiling like silly while thinking.

'Hehe, Master could have used flight to come here but he didn't because he wanted to spend more time with me. Hehe, there's also that teleportation of Master; he didn't use it because he wanted to enjoy a ride with me.'

Lan Ming looked at the sword and asked Shen Yu.

"You don't want to buy the sword? I mean, for you, it'll be useless, but what about the disciples you'll take."

"Haha, I have already filled my Sect's Treasury to the brim before I actually made my Sect, so there's no need to buy these low-quality products. My Sect already has enough of these weapons and pills."

Shen Yu chuckled and said. Lan Ming giggled, realising that she had again Forgotten how powerful Shen Yu actually was. Well, it's not like she knew exactly how powerful he was.

A middle-aged man sitting very close to the stage bought the flying sword. After the first item was sold, Zhou Zun again gestured as the former two ladies stepped down from the stage, and two new ones came holding the second item.

"This item is something that even the VIPs will be interested in."

Zhou Zun smirked and took off the cloth, revealing a small bottle made from white jade. He then looked in the front and explained.

"As you might have guessed, it's a pill. But it isn't any normal pill; it's a Rank 3 Mid-grade Foundation Establishment Pill."

As soon as those words left his mouth, the audience went wild. They began to discuss with each other in a loud voice, causing a commotion. Zhou Zun didn't interrupt them and simply watched everything with a big smile on his face.

He looked at the VIP rooms with an even wider smile. The foundation Establishment Pill was precious even for the VIPs. It was all because this pill increased the chances of a breakthrough to the Foundation Realm from the Qi Gathering Realm.

From this, one can understand the value of this pill and why so many people were crazy about it. Many would even bet all of their life's savings on the pill just to get a chance to break through to the Foundation.

Especially if the Quality of the pill was good. The quality of pills was decided by the amount of impurities in them, and a Mid-Grade pill contained 60% impurities. Although it may sound high, it was rare to get a pill of that quality, especially if the rank was high.

A small town couldn't afford such a high-rank pill, but here it was, in the biggest Auction House of the Jade Province. Even the VIPs attending the Auction were shocked by that and readied their wallet.

They had to get the Foundation Establishment Pill at any cost. That would mean having an extra Foundation Realm expert among them, and they needed that at all costs.

Shen Yu raised an eyebrow, seeing such an uproar because of the pill, and asked Lan Ming because he found the pill to be pretty bad.

"Why are they so excited? Isn't it only a Rank 3 pill? It's even of good quality."

"Master Shen, I think it's just that you're too great that you think of such a treasure as a small thing. That pill can make people fight to death, and even Tier 2 sects would do anything to get their hands on such a pill. Because many people just can't break through to the Foundation Realm. Sometimes it's because of their talent, sometimes it's because of their body structure and many other things. But ultimately, it's a fact that unless they had a Foundation Establishment Pill, they would never be able to achieve the Foundation Realm. Besides, if someone tried to break through and failed, they would receive backlash, so I hope now you understand the value of that pill."

Lan Ming explained without losing her composure. She could guess Shen Yu's thoughts, which caused her to sigh.
