Into the World of Medicine Chapter 96 Part8

Once Nangong Ting heard Liu Pinyan's confirmation of the deal, he exhaled in relief. He was anxious that in case even this bid couldn't win, if the bids were further increased, then it would definitely impair Nangong's family foundation.

Heads of other three families also looked unsightly. As long as they thought that now Nangong family would instantly gain ten Foundation Establishment cultivators, their mood fell lower than the deepest trench.

For a long time now, Nangong family was the strongest one of the four. Although this time Murong family won the champions.h.i.+p at the Clan a.s.sembly, it was a known fact, that it was much weaker than the Nangongs.

Moreover, the one who won this glory for the Murongs was always treated as a waste Murong Qingyan. Even if technically she belonged to Murong Family, there was definitely no place in her heart for them.

Contrary to the complex moods of Heads of Four Great Families, Liu Pinyan's mood bordered on jubilant.

Although he long knew that these Zhuji pills would fetch a very good price, it was out of his expectations that it would be that good.

Even if they received the commision of only 5% from 100 million gold coins, it was still quite a bit of wealth.

It could be said that the auction of Zhuji pills was the highest point of the whole auction. Following Zhuji pills, other items of exceptional quality were auctioned, but none of these items could excite guests as much. Although these things were good, the prices they raised were not so impressive.

Finally, it was the time for the last item to be auctioned.

Liu Pinyan placed a small box on the platform.

Looking at this box, the audience felt puzzled. Was the last item a simple box? This shouldn't be a sort of joke, should it?

Noticing the doubts amongst the public, Liu Pinyan explained with a smile: "What we auction is definitely not this box, but what's inside it."

As soon as he was done with his explanation, he opened the box and showed everyone a roll of parchment in it: "What we auction this time is this map. However, calling it a map might not be right! Because it's only a remaining part of the map. As far as we know, this map leads to the third-ranked Divine Flame, the Netherworld Ghost Flame."

"But since the map is incomplete, the starting bid is only 10 000 gold coins."

"20 000 gold coins," someone quickly raised the bid.

The bidding went on, but the increments weren't high. The value of a Divine Flame was unquestionable, especially so for apothecaries and pill refiners. If a pill refiner had a Divine Flame to a.s.sist him, his results would improve tremendously. It's only that a Divine Flame wasn't easy to subdue. And if a person failed in suppressing it, that unlucky person would not just lose his life, he would be swallowed by the divine Flame so that even ashes wouldn't be left.

Besides, this was only a remnant of the map. Even if it was bought, there was no guarantee that this Divine Flame would be found. Therefore, not many people were interested in this map.

"Master, let's bid for it!" Unlike reserved atmosphere in the hall below, little White was jumping from excitement: "We must get this map and find the Netherworld Ghost Flame!"

Murong Qingyan smiled at him and nodded, obviously, agreeing with Little White.

She waited until the bids almost died down and pushed the b.u.t.ton, saying: "100 000 gold coins."

After her bid people stopped bidding altogether. After all, this kind of damaged map didn't hold much value in public's eyes, so the bidding wasn't enthusiastic in the first place.
