"Haha, brother Ah Bao, I think it's better to forget about this matter. Don't you see that my aunt and Zi Long are very close?"

Ah'Bao's face darkened. He didn't pay any attention to Yuan Fei as he rode on his sword.

A day later, they finally entered the borders of the Southern Fire Empire. The empire was vast and boundless. The area managed by a city could be compared to a small country.

Fan City is a city at the border of the Southern Fire Empire. It is very prosperous and has a population of one billion. How big of a city would it take to hold so many people?

"In front of us is Fan City. How about we spend a day here at Fan City?" Seeing how lively this Fan City was, Yuan Fei said.

Yuan Lili was the first to stand out and said, "I agree." Since Yuan Lili had agreed, the people from the Flame Sect had nothing to say.

Qi Yun and the others looked at Po, who nodded and said, "Let's rest here too." For the past three months, they had been living out in the open. It hadn't been easy for them to get to the Nanhuo Empire, so of course they had to take a break.

There was still a month's journey from Fan City to Nanhuo City, just in time for the Pill Refining Assembly. Ah'Bao was not in a hurry.

It was now noon. They found a place to eat and sat down. They ordered some food and ate.

"Have you heard? The Fan family's auction house is holding an auction tonight, and it's said that there's a fifth rank pill being auctioned."

"I've heard about it. This auction has a lot of good things. I've heard that there are even spirit artifacts."

"Shh, keep it down. The power of the Fan family is spread throughout the city. Be careful not to let the people from the Fan family hear about it."

"The Fan family?" Ah'Bao was somewhat surprised.

Yuan Chen, who didn't like speaking up, said, "The Fan family is a family of the Southern Fire Empire. They are extremely powerful and belong to a first-rate power. Their strength isn't any weaker than our Flame Sect. This Fan City is the base of the Fan family."

"Oh, so that's how it is. Then what about the auction?"

Yuan Chen said, "The Fan family is on good terms with the Qin family. The Qin family is a medicinal clan of the Southern Fire Empire, and the pills that are being auctioned by the Fan family are from the Qin family."

"Qin Clan, Qin Shang?" Ah'Bao suddenly recalled that when the Dragons were fighting over the Dragon-scaled Fruit, there was a person named Qin Shang.

Yuan Chen was surprised, "You also know Qin Shang?"

Ah'Bao shook his head, "I don't know, but I know a person called Qin Shang."

Yuan Chen nodded his head and said, "This Qin family has recently produced three of the most talented juniors, and this Qin Shang is one of them. It is said that a year ago, this Qin Shang was already a fourth tier alchemist."

"Rank four apothecary?" Ah'Bao remembered that eight years ago, when he was in the Sky Dragon's secret realm, Qin Shang was only in the middle phase of the Aurous Core stage. Eight years ago, Qin Shang was in the Nascent Soul stage, Ah Bao remembered that eight years ago, when he was in the Sky Dragon's secret realm, Qin Shang was only in the middle phase of the Aurous Core stage.

Although the Qin family was only a first-rate power in the Nanhuo Empire, their status in the Nanhuo Empire was comparable to that of the supreme power, the Nanhuo Faction. It was not because the Qin family had any powerful experts, but because the Qin family was an alchemist aristocratic family, and because the direct descendants of the Qin family were all alchemists, their status in the Nanhuo Empire was very high. Even the Nanhuo Faction had to give the Qin family some face.

Yuan Fei said, "Brother Ah Bao, should we go to the auction tonight and take a look?"

"Alright, then let's go take a look."

That night, Yuan Fei, Zi Long, Yuan Lili, Qi Yun, and the others left the inn and headed straight for the auction. Li Gu and Li Fu, Qi Lan, Lan Lan, weren't interested in the auction, so the three of them went shopping together.

The auction house was located in the center of Fan City, and it took the four of them three hours to reach it.

This auction house was very big, it was a circular building with a total of three floors. Ah'Bao and the others paid a fee of ten spirit stones to enter, and after entering the first floor, they found seats.

The second and third floors were only accessible to those with status and position.

As he sat in his seat, the auction was about to begin. First, a young man wearing revealing clothes walked onto the stage. In his hand was a microphone magic tool. It was a voice amplifying magic tool.

"Everyone, please be quiet." The voice of the beautiful girl was extremely sweet. Her skin was very white, and she looked like she wanted to make people take a bite out of her. She completely followed a sexy and alluring route, captivating one's soul.

The hundred thousand people present immediately quietened down. Within the auction house, the hundred thousand people were all cultivators. Although most of them were in the Invigorated Meridian Realm and were occasionally in the Aurous Core or Nascent Soul Realm, there weren't many of them.

"The auction is about to begin, let me introduce myself, many people here might already know, I'm Fan Yuanyuan, 19 years old this year, unmarried." Speaking up to here, Fan Yuanyuan threw a flirtatious glance at the people sitting on the stage, causing the tens of thousands of people to boil over.

"Today, my Fan City Auction House is going to auction ninety-nine items. Each item being auctioned is something our Fan family meticulously selected, and it will definitely satisfy everyone here. Let's not waste time, next, we will sell the first item."

Two beauties were pushing a cart. On the cart, there was a black cloth.

Fan Yuanyuan lifted the black cloth and saw a piece of black wood guarding the cart.

"Everyone knows that this ten thousand year old black wood is a good material for making magical items. The starting price for this piece of wood is ten thousand Spirit Stones."

Wu Mu was indeed a good material for refining Dharma treasures. Wu Mu was extremely hard. Even if it was an ordinary Ten Thousand Year Refined Iron, its toughness wouldn't be comparable to this Ten Thousand Year Dark Wood.

"Twenty thousand Spirit Stones. Each bid must be at least one thousand Spirit Stones."

"Twenty-five thousand Spirit Stones."

"Twenty-eight thousand spirit stones."

This time, he didn't have much spirit stones with him, only slightly over a million spirit stones. These spirit stones were all earned from mining the spirit stone vein with his men, and as for the money earned by the Pavilion of Heavenly Law in the past few years, other than the 100,000 spirit stones that it provided to the Heavenly Dragon Sect every year, the rest was only enough to cover the expenses of the outer hall of the Tian Dao Sect.

"Next is the second item, the top quality magic tool, the Fire Cloud Sword."

A beautiful lady was carrying a tray. In the tray, there was a red cloth covering it. Fan Yuanyuan lifted the red cloth, revealing a red flying sword. On the blade of the sword, there was a picture of a cloud.

"Good sword." I'll take it, little Sun, take that Fire Cloud Sword for me. " When Yuan Lili saw this flying sword, she quite liked it.

Yuan Fei was shocked. This supreme grade magic tool did not even have several million spirit stones, so it was simply impossible. However, Yuan Fei did not object.

"Fire Cloud Sword, starting price of eight hundred thousand Spirit Stones. Every bid must be at least fifty thousand Spirit Stones."

"850,000."

"Nine hundred thousand Spirit Stones."

"One million spirit stones."

After a few rounds of bidding, the supreme grade magic tool, the Fire Cloud Sword, was raised to two million Spirit Stones. However, Yuan Fei didn't seem to have any intention of opening his mouth.

"Two million five hundred thousand." At this time, Yuan Fei, who was sitting beside Ah Bao, finally opened his mouth.

"Two million five hundred thousand Spirit Stones. Is there anyone else more expensive than this Fellow Daoist? Is there, or is there not?"

Fan Yuanyuan's voice was extremely seductive, and her words made people's hearts itch. Most of the cultivators present were here to see Fan Yuanyuan, she was the number one beauty in Fan City.
