Chapter 204: Yama’s Drunkenness

The charming woman giggled, not offended, and said, "Rest assured, our Ziyun Auction House has never disappointed a guest."

"Please bring out the first item for auction."

As soon as the woman finished speaking, a treasure was brought up.

It was a sword; the blade was as brilliant as a gemstone, and the hilt was exquisitely carved. At a glance, it was clearly a treasure of immense value.

"So beautiful!" Qin Qing's eyes were instantly captivated.

Jue Wuya saw the sword and shook his head in disappointment: "Grandstanding! Worthless!"

"This sword is so beautiful, how could it be worthless?" Qin Qing asked, puzzled.

Qin Ming chuckled and explained, "A sword is a Weapon, and the duty of a Weapon is to fight. This sword has been so exquisitely carved that it has long since lost its true purpose as a sword; that is why Jue Wuya called it grandstanding."

Qin Qing nodded thoughtfully.

If even Qin Qing liked this sword so much, the Young Misses of the wealthy Families below liked it even more; as soon as it was brought up, it became highly sought after by them.

"This sword has been appraised by our Auction House's Great Master and is a treasure of immense value. The starting bid is one thousand Mid-Grade Spirit Stones."

The charming woman said with a smile.

Immediately, shouts began to rise one after another as soon as the woman finished speaking.

"One thousand one hundred Mid-Grade Spirit Stones!"

"I bid one thousand two hundred."

"…"

Soon, the bidding stopped at two thousand two hundred.

"Clap!" The woman on the stage smiled charmingly: "This precious sword belongs to the Zhang Family's Young Miss! The Zhang Family is truly worthy of being the Zhang Family; they are indeed one of the two major Families in Chenyang City, and their bid is truly generous."

"Alright, hurry up and take this trinket for women away. Bring out some real good stuff; don't bring out this useless junk."

A Martial Artist shouted loudly.

"Yeah! What's the point of just bidding on things for women? Bring out something for real men."

Another Martial Artist chimed in.

The woman clapped her hands, and an item was brought up.

"The item to be auctioned now is a spirit plant. It is a seventh-grade spirit plant, Yama's Drunkenness. If it can be refined into a poison pill, it can poison a Martial King level expert. Even if not refined into a Medicinal Pill and taken alone, it is a piece of cake to deal with a Martial Ancestor. The starting bid is one hundred High-Grade Spirit Stones."

The charming woman smiled gracefully and opened the red cloth, revealing a crystal-clear spirit plant.

Seeing the spirit plant, Qin Ming sat up straight abruptly.

Yama's Drunkenness was exactly one of the spirit plants he was looking for, although this spirit plant alone could not cure Elder Qing's poison.

However, with this spirit plant in hand, the other spirit plants could be collected slowly. Each additional spirit plant meant an extra glimmer of hope.

This Yama's Drunkenness could do more than just refine poison pills; its true purpose was to refine Medicinal Pills for detoxification.

Even if he didn't find the other spirit plants, Qin Ming could suppress Elder Qing's poison for a while longer just by relying on this Yama's Drunkenness.

It was truly surprising to Qin Ming that such a precious seventh-grade spirit plant could appear in Chenyang City.

"One hundred twenty!" a Martial Artist shouted loudly.

"Two hundred!" A low voice came from the box next to Qin Ming, and the room suddenly fell silent.

Two hundred High-Grade Spirit Stones were exceptionally precious.

If this spirit plant could be refined into a Medicinal Pill, it would of course be worth far more than two hundred High-Grade Spirit Stones, but since it was merely a spirit plant capable of poisoning a Martial Ancestor, two hundred High-Grade Spirit Stones had already caused everyone present to calm down.

Was it really worth it?
