《Rise of the Great Emperor 》Chapter 146: The Auction (2)
Advertisement
Sui Wenyan saw their expression but unable to say anything. She could only smile bitterly and pointed at the auction house before them.
"Let's get in."
Lin Xiao showed the ticket that Zhongsun Shan had given him not long ago then entered the auction house along with the other two. When they departed back then, Zhongsun Shan didn't forget to give them tickets to attend the auction.
It would be a joke if they were refused at the entrance because they didn't have tickets.
"Is it VIP or normal?"
"Normal." Lin Xiao himself was glad when he saw that the ticket was normal ones. He didn't' want to attract attention and with his current rank, he knew better than to create a mess in the middle of nowhere.
Sui Wenyan nodded. "Let's pick a seat."
"Ok."
The Auction house was large with a lot of seats. It looked like a lecture hall with the center being the stage for the MC to start the auction and pull people to hike the price. There were already a lot of people inside and from their clothing, it was clear that they were all rich people.
Comparing their clothes to Lin Xiao and the others would be an utter embarrassment.
"Should we change clothes first?" Lin Yun asked, his face a bit red.
"Well, just leave it be." Lin Xiao knew that clothes that was made of good fabric would be very expensive. Rather than wasting the gold they earned with difficulties in that matter, it would be better for him to use it for cultivation.
It was not like they were trying hard to impress someone, right?
"Alright."
They took a seat, ignoring the obvious scorn and mocking gazes from the people nearby. Only towards Sui Wenyan did they droll and some men were even trying to get close. However, they didn't dare to create trouble because in this auction house there were a lot of powerful guards.

If they don't want to get kicked out, they should stay away from troubles.
Sui Wenyan only clicked her tongue when she saw their reaction. Obviously, she hated men who would stare at woman's body without reservation like that. But their real intention of coming here was for the auction, so she wouldn't let those people made things difficult for her.
"Do you want to buy anything, Wenyan?"
They were given paper list of the items in the auction. Sui Wenyan was currently browsing while calculating the money she had. "I'm thinking of buying something that can enhance my capabilities."
"Such as?"
"Skill book, pills, but these are all too expensive." Sui Wenyan could only grit her teeth when she saw the rare pills in the list. The effect was astoundingly good even for a Foundation Establishment like her. However, the price would make her heart bleed. Not to mention, in an auction, the price could be inflated a few more times.
"Which one?"
"Yin Qi Pill," Sui Wenyan admitted.
Lin Xiao glanced at the list and sucked a deep breath. The base price was 10,000 gold for that Yin Qi Pill or one Low Grade Spirit stone. Recalling his wealth, Lin Xiao felt that it was a mistake for him to come here.
Wenren Yu arched his eyebrows when he heard what Sui Wenyan wanted. "Help me advance to Foundation Establishment then I might be able to help you."
"You?" Sui Wenyan was stunned. It was then she recalled that Wenren Yu was an alchemist and naturally knew how to make medicine. Her eyes shone at that thought. There were several pills that has cultivation restriction to make them because of the plenty use of Qi. Yin Qi Pill was included. Based on the record, the lowest cultivation stage one could attempt to make this pill would be Foundation Establishment Stage.

Many usually failed, though. Because of that, this pill was usually made by Alchemist at Golden Core Stage.
Wenren Yu nodded. He might not be able to make the pill in one go, but he knew the recipe. His master was one of the few great alchemist in the entire Sun Kingdom, so he had learned a lot. Unfortunately, his low rank prevented him from even trying to make the pills and medicine.
Many would be doomed to fail because he was still only at Body Training Stage.
"Alright. I'll count on you. One of the materials is Night Yin Flower. The base price is also 10,000 gold tsk."
Lin Xiao nearly dropped from his chair when he heard what Sui Wenyan said. Wait, this flower's base price was the same as Low Grade Spirit Stone? Thinking about the manager that he met yesterday, he was tempted to ask for them to pay him with Low Grade Spirit Stones instead of gold.
He needed Spirit Stones more.
"Don't worry, you don't need to bid," Wenren Yu assured Sui Wenyan.
Looking at their expression, Sui Wenyan felt a bit odd. It was as if these three were not worried about the materials at all. Her eyes landed on Wenren Yu's Spatial Ring before she shut her mouth.
She might not be the smartest person in the entire kingdom, but she could guess that they might have already gathered more than enough herbs from their journey. She didn't know where they were staying before they met in Feng Yi City either, so there was no use even if she tried to think so much.
"Then, what should we buy?" Sui Wenyan asked.
Lin Yun was the only one who was scrutinizing the list from the very beginning. Lin Xiao only paid attention to the skill books and medicine like Sui Wenyan. Unfortunately, the high price prevented him from buying them even if he wanted to.
Well, once Night Yin Flower was sold, it might be a different case, though.
"Brother, I want Dragonfly Grass," Lin Yun remarked from the side.
"Hmm?" Lin Xiao glanced at the list and noticed that the base price for the grass was only 100 gold. Even if it was hiked thanks to the auction, it shouldn't be that much.
"Alright."

Rebirth
Rebirth, the process of being reborn. Why does it happen and who really qualifies. We will seek to look into the these questions by following the life of Richard as we experiences this process first hand. We will follow his life and his fight against the evil blue boxes and what comes with all of them. ------------------------------- Update 04-24-18 Just ran a spelling and grammar check on the existing chapters and corrected a lot of little issues. ------------------------------- Just so you know, do not expect detailed sex scenes, or a lot of gore and such. Profanity is probably a given, I added the tag today....I mean you've seen how the Blue Box God talks....I'm shocked our MC has keep his cool so far. Also just FYI, I've got the entire per chapter outline complete for what will end up being book 1. That being said I've discovered over the years that a good outline lasts until you begin to wrote the chapter out. What that means is that even with a good outline because I tend to rethink thing out 4 or 5 times while I write them that it can hold up a chapter from being released. I'd rather hold up a story to make it flow better than rush something out. So while you might see at times a very aggressive release rate, at times you might wonder what happened to me because I've stopped posting. The reason being that after I wrote the chapter I decided it either sucked, didn't flow right or I just decided the direction things were headed no longer seemed right. So I'll stop, review and decide if I need to rewite all of the outlines to changes things up and then rewrite the chapter, or possibly go back and make changes to older chapters if needed. By the way, if I ever decide something needs to change, I will let you know which chapters changed and I'll give you a quick outline of the changes so you can skip the reread if you want. Yes a lot of this story will be told from the third person prespective, though we will listen to Richard tell his story. Expect a lof of behind the scene components. I've never published here before so expect it to take me a try or 2 to get an understanding of the formatting and such. Also I do not post a schedule. Sorry but real life always comes first but I will try and get things steddy.

In Pursuit of Bark's Finest
On the frontiers of transhumanity’s expansion into the galaxy thousands of light years from the light of Sol, things can get rather chaotic. There are countless millions of nascent interstellar nations securing their interests, pirate ships prospering off plunder and deniable mercenary work, dissidents setting up their own civilizations, and other groups all trying to push an agenda. When these groups crash into each other, the results can become extremely messy and convoluted. Recently, a frontier nation calling itself the Red Star Union has found itself at the focal point of one such complication. A freighter under their protection has been sabotaged, hijacked in interstellar space, and robbed of its cargo. This would be bad enough even if all it were carrying was luxury goods, but the freighter Nebula Plow was carrying more than just normal trade goods. Indeed, her cargo of Non-Orientable Wormholes for use in starship power plants was both very expensive and very, very dangerous. Now the Red Star Union has to worry about a pirate crew running around with several extra devices capable of converting matter into antimatter with negligible energy cost. With those, the pirates could be capable of inflicting untold damage if allowed to leverage their ill-gotten gains into a stronger position, a possibility the Union finds completely intolerable. Unfortunately, all that the Red Star Union has to go on for evidence is two names; that of the captain, and that of the ship. The Captain is going by the possible pseudonym of Fuller, while the ship is named Bark’s Finest. And thus the orders came down to the Union’s Bureau of Starforce Intelligence: find more information on these pirates, conclusively identify them, and figure out where exactly they’ve gone to ground so that the fleet can crush them before they get established. Of the many agents that the bureau assigned to this mission, one would happen to play an important role: Field Agent Madeline Zargosty. This is her story. This story is entirely pre-written, and will have one chapter released per week. If you want to read it all ahead of schedule and get access to some premium-exclusive bonus content, the entire book is available for purchase; links to the appropriate storefront pages will be posted at the end of each chapter. This story is also being posted to Scribblehub.
