While Gu Qingluan was deep in thought, a cold and indifferent voice suddenly resounded, “One hundred Xuanling Crystal Hearts!’”
Gu Qingluan’s heart skipped a beat, and she couldn’t spare the time to inquire about the origin of her son’s Purple Gold Card. Her gaze quickly shifted to the auction.
One hundred Xuanling Crystal Hearts? Was the bidder out of his mind?
Why would he spend one hundred Xuanling Crystal Hearts when he could buy something else instead of competing with her for the Chaos Stone?
Gu Qingluan’s face turned dark.
This price far exceeded her expectations.
Over the years, she had earned a substantial amount of money by selling elixirs from the Island of No Return. In total, she should have around one hundred Xuanling Crystal Hearts. However, if she were to bring them out, she would have to resort to extreme measures.
Where did this heartless “big spender” come from?
Did he have too much money to waste?
The entire auction was also shocked by the bidding.
“Am I hearing correctly? Did he say one hundred Xuanling Crystal Hearts?”
“Who is this God of wealth? He must be incredibly wealthy!”
“Shouldn’t we be paying more attention to this black stone? The fact that this man is willing to bid a hundred Xuanling Crystal Hearts indicates that this item is likely worth that price. Could this black stone be made of Xuanling Crystal Hearts?”
“How can such a small piece of Xuanling Crystal Hearts be worth so much? It would make more sense if it were Xuanling Essence!”
The guests were astonished, and even the auctioneer, Lu Yao, was extremely excited.
“A hundred Xuanling Crystal Hearts! Unexpectedly, after a decade, our auction has once again seen an item with over a hundred Xuanling Crystal Hearts! Is there anyone willing to offer a higher price?”
They thought that the highlight of today’s auction would be the Ninth-Grade Spirit Pills from the Island of No Return, but they didn’t expect such a dark horse to appear!
As a top-tier auctioneer, Lu Yao had never witnessed such a high price before.
The higher the price went, the more her reputation would soar, and the better the reputation of Lushi Auction House would become.
“A hundred Xuanling Crystal Hearts, going once!”
“If there are no further bids, then this item will be awarded to the VIP who bid a hundred Xuanling Crystal Hearts!”
“A hundred Xuanling Crystal Hearts, going twice!”
“Sold for a hundred Xuanling Crystal Hearts! Congratulations to the winning bidder of this auction item!”
The auction house ensured the confidentiality of its esteemed guests, allowing them to conceal their true identities if they so desired. Even Lu Yao, at that moment, remained unaware of the distinguished individual who had successfully acquired the black stone through the bidding process.
Gu Qingluan pressed the intercom with a serious expression.
Shortly after, the door to the VIP room was pushed open.
A young attendant entered and said, “Miss Gu, may I ask what your instructions are?”
“Could you please inquire whether the guest who just purchased the black stone with a hundred Xuanling Crystal Hearts is willing to exchange it for something of equal value?” Gu Qingluan asked.
The attendant was surprised and asked, “Do you want that item?”
The exorbitant price of a hundred Xuanling Crystal Hearts had caused quite a stir in the auction house, and the attendant had also heard about it.
However, he had never expected that the esteemed guest, whom Young Master Lu had instructed to treat well, would want that particular item and be willing to exchange it for something of equal value… What kind of treasure could be worth so much?
Seeing the hesitation on the attendant’s face, Gu Qingluan added, “Yes, I would like to exchange it for a Sacred Grade elixir from the Island of No Return.” Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
The attendant took a sharp breath.
The Sacred Grade elixir produced by the Island of No Return?
That was truly invaluable.
“No matter how precious that black stone may be, it surely can’t compare to a Sacred Grade Elixir from the Island of No Return, right?”
The waiter swallowed nervously. “I… I will go and ask for you.”
With that, he exited the room.
Gu Qingluan sat back in her chair, her gaze once again directed towards the elevated platform, though her expression seemed somewhat absent-minded.
“Mother, is it because I gave you too little money? From now on, I will work hard to earn more money, so you can buy whatever you want!”
Feeling self-reproachful for not being able to purchase the things his mother liked, Feng Yuanxi’s heart was filled with remorse.
If he had more money, he could have bought the things his mother desired.
Gu Qingluan chuckled, and her gloomy mood dissipated to some extent.
She reached out and pinched her son’s adorable little face. “Xiao Nan, you’re so filial. I’ll rely on you to take care of me.”
Feng Yuanxi’s eyes lit up, and he nodded vigorously.. “Yes, yes! Mother, rest assured, I will work hard!”
