Chapter 1841: The Heaven-level Skills are Sold Cheaper and Cheaper

“What do you think I want to talk to you about?” Luo Yudie swayed her sexy body closer, her eyes fixed on him.

“This…” Ye Bufan said, bewildered, “How would I know if Big Sister doesn’t tell me? Is it because I’ve become even more handsome?”

“Smooth talker.” Luo Yudie gave him a charming glare, then said with a hint of grievance, “You, I asked you to treat my good sister, but you ended up ‘eating’ Sister Xueman. Don’t you think I should settle accounts with you?”

“Uh…” At the mention of this, Ye Bufan felt a pang of guilt. After all, Lu Xueman was not only Luo Yudie’s good sister, but the incident happened right under her nose.

He had originally thought this matter could be kept secret, but he hadn’t expected such a big commotion at Cangfeng Academy these past few days. Luo Yudie must have received the news.

“That… Big Sister, actually, this whole thing was just an accident…” Ye Bufan briefly and concisely explained what happened, finally saying, “This really was something unexpected…”

Luo Yudie didn't speak, just stared at him intently.

After a long while, until Ye Bufan felt so guilty he didn't know what to do, she finally said, “You should also check my body and see if I have any illnesses, or if there might be some ‘accidents’ that need to happen…”

“Uh…” Ye Bufan’s face instantly darkened. “Big Sister, I’m telling the truth, these were all accidents, I really didn’t do it on purpose.”

“Alright, I’m not blaming you. Just treat her well from now on and don’t bully my Sister Xueman.” Luo Yudie changed the subject and said, “I heard that when you registered at Cangfeng Academy, it wasn’t very smooth. What exactly happened?”

“Oh, you mean that? It was all Du Lang’s doing…” Ye Bufan once again briefly and concisely recounted the events.

“That damned Du Lang, has he forgotten that you saved his life in Wild Wolf Valley?” Luo Yudie’s expression immediately darkened. “I’ll go settle accounts with him right now.”

“No need, Big Sister. I’ve already settled that account.” Ye Bufan laughed, “Before coming to you, I went to his place first, gave him a good beating, and then made a small profit. Let’s just consider that matter closed.”

Luo Yudie chuckled, “You really don’t let yourself be taken advantage of.”

Ye Bufan then asked, “Big Sister (End of this chapter, please turn the page), what exactly did you call me here for? It can’t just be for these things, can it?”

“No, it’s not that. Today, I’m hosting a large-scale auction here, it’s the first one I’ve presided over since becoming the Pavilion Master. If you’re interested, you can come and take a look.” Luo Yudie said, handing a list to Ye Bufan, “Take a look, these are the items being auctioned tonight. There are many good things.

There are Sharp Weapons, rare Cultivation Techniques, and very uncommon Medicinal Pills.”

“Oh! Big Sister, you’re thoughtful.” Ye Bufan was quite interested in auctions; he had attended a few and always had unexpected gains.

He took the list and scanned it from beginning to end. There weren't many items that interested him, but his gaze finally landed on a Cultivation Technique.

This was a Heaven Rank Cultivation Technique, but what interested him wasn't its high Rank, but the name of the Cultivation Technique.

“Burning Fire Body Refining Art!” From the name, this was a Heaven Rank Body Refining Cultivation Technique, definitely a rare and good item.

The most crucial thing was that this Cultivation Technique gave him a flash of inspiration. Due to his Mental Energy issues, he couldn't Cultivate true Qi.

In that case, he might as well try a different approach: Body Refining. He could also quickly improve his cultivation that way.

He briefly looked at the description of this Cultivation Technique, and then a hint of doubt arose in his mind.

“Big Sister, that’s not right. Did you mark the price incorrectly? Look at that Low Grade Earth Rank Cultivation Technique, it’s priced at 100 million gold coins. How is this Heaven Rank Cultivation Technique only selling for 200 million gold coins?”

Although he hadn't been in Kunlun Continent for long, he knew how precious Heaven Rank Cultivation Techniques were here; calling them priceless treasures wouldn't be an exaggeration.

Why was this Burning Fire Body Refining Art selling so cheaply? Based on his experience on Earth, if a good item sells too cheaply, it’s likely a trap. This principle also applied here.

“Are you talking about this?” Luo Yudie said, “Haven’t you heard of this Cultivation Technique’s name?”

“No, is it famous?” Ye Bufan looked surprised.

“Alright, I believe you now, you really have never seen the world.” Luo Yudie shook her head, then said, “In the entire martial arts world of Kunlun Continent, when it comes to fame, there is probably no Cultivation Technique that can surpass this Burning Fire Body Refining Art.”

Ye Bufan became even more bewildered: “Why? If this Cultivation Technique is really that powerful, why would it be put up for auction? And why is it selling so (End of this chapter, please turn the page) cheaply?

Normally, if it truly is a Heaven Rank Cultivation Technique, it would not only be priceless but also unobtainable, not to mention causing a bloody storm. It certainly wouldn't be casually auctioned off.

The most crucial thing is this price; compared to the status of a Heaven Rank Cultivation Technique, it's absolutely dirt cheap.

“Don’t rush, let me tell you slowly. This Burning Fire Body Refining Art once had a glorious history.” Luo Yudie sat beside Ye Bufan, parted her red lips, and began to narrate slowly.

“About a hundred years ago, a Cultivator entered an ancient ruin in Tianluo State.

After a narrow escape, he obtained a Heaven Rank Cultivation Technique from inside, and it was a rare High Grade Heaven Rank one, which is this Burning Fire Body Refining Art.

Three years later, he suddenly put this Cultivation Technique up for auction. At that time, the final transaction price was 50 billion gold coins.

What was surprising was that five years later, the buyer who acquired this Cultivation Technique put it back on the auction block. The second transaction price was 30 billion gold coins.

In the following years, the Burning Fire Body Refining Art appeared more and more frequently at auctions, and the auction price became lower and lower each time.

Today is its twenty-eighth auction. The starting bid is 200 million gold coins, and it’s still uncertain whether it will even sell.”

Ye Bufan asked doubtfully, “Why? Is this Cultivation Technique fake?” So many people had owned this Cultivation Technique and then put it up for auction, so it was very likely a counterfeit.

“That, I don’t know. Now, there are many conflicting theories about the Burning Fire Body Refining Art. Some say it’s fake, some say it’s an Incomplete Manual.

In short, for so many years, no one has ever managed to Cultivate it. In fact, several buyers suffered Qi Deviation from forcibly Cultivating this Cultivation Technique.

The one putting it up for auction today is a disciple from a large Family. He wanted to try his luck and bought this Cultivation Technique for eleven gold coins.

As a result, he studied it for a long time but found nothing. The last time it was put up for auction, the reserve price was 500 million gold coins, but no one was interested.

Today, it has been lowered by 300 million; it’s practically a fire sale.” Luo Yudie said, “So, Little brother, don’t be tempted by this Cultivation Technique just because the price is cheap, otherwise, you’ll easily suffer a loss.”

“Oh!” Ye Bufan nodded, but he didn’t abandon his idea. Instead, he became interested in this Heaven Rank Cultivation Technique that was selling for less and less.
