Chapter 41: Luo Yunzhu Makes a Fool out of Feng Xiuyu
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Since Feng Xiuyu had bid 50 million immediately following an opening bid of 10 million, it was apparent that she wanted to win straightaway . Very well, then! If Feng Xiuyu was so ‘ruthlessly rich,’ Luo Yunzhu didn’t mind playing around with her for a little while longer . She’d top her bid one Bronze Coin at a time to make sure that she burst from anger!
Even when there had been nothing for Feng Tianlan to fall back on, she still hadn’t feared them . And now, Feng Tianlan was an Alchemist! Her fear was nonexistent, and she was determined to oppose Feng Xiuyu until the very end .
Feng Xiuyu frowned and continued bidding . “60 million . ”
“I’ll top that with one bronze coin,” Luo Yunzhu said calmly .
“70 million,” Feng Xiuyu pressed on and frowned even harder .
“One bronze coin more than her . ”
Feng Xiuyu glared at Luo Yunzhu . She bit her cheeks and called out, “80 million . ”
80 million! While this was not a sum that the Fengs could not afford, it would affect their later bids . Luo Yunzhu still had to bid for the Marrow Cleansing Pill later on .
Luo Yunzhu narrowed her eyes and snarled at Feng Xiuyu, “80 million gold coins and a bronze coin . ”
Feng Xiyu wanted to continue bidding, only to be stopped by Feng Xiang, who raised his gaze toward Luo Yuanjie and said, “85 million . ”
“85 million gold coins and one bronze coin,” Luo Yunzhu continued .
Faced with such a dramatic bidding war, Luo Yuanjie raised no objections . After all, the Fengs were too much . Feng Xiuyu had beaten up Luo Yunzhu, and so it was only right that they should suffer some punishment .

“90 million . ” Feng Xiang gritted his teeth and turned toward Luo Yuanjie . He growled, “Dean Luo, do you intend to go against the Feng Family?”
When Feng Tianlan had fought back that night, a sense of danger had crept up his spine, and he couldn’t shake it . Now that the Spirit Boosting Pill and the Marrow Cleansing Pill had both appeared, he planned to use these pills to increase Yue’er’s ability so that she could cripple Feng Tianlan once and for all in the battle due to take place the day after tomorrow . If all went according to plan, he could annul the betrothal and swallow the treasure . Therefore, he was willing to cough up sky-high prices for these pills . To think that the Luo’s would oppose them…Was it because of Feng Tianlan? Darn it, Luo Yunzhu must be blind to remain on such close terms with a good-for-nothing .
“How could the Luo Family compare to the Feng Family in terms of wealth? This is only the way that bidding works . It’s just an auction . The Feng Clan Head has no hard feelings, I hope,” Luo Yuanjie replied coolly, but no one could point to any malice in his words .
Luo Yunzhu smiled tenderly and said, “90 million and one bronze coin . ”
“90 million and two bronze coins . ” Feng Xiuyu tugged at Feng Xiang . She would also add on to her bid one bronze coin at a time to humiliate Luo Yunzhu . It was easy—a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye .
“And I thought I was shameless . It’s nothing much to me; after all, I’m a good-for-nothing . However, I didn’t expect the Feng Family to be this shameless as well . How can you only add a single bronze coin?” Luo Yunzhu shrugged and beamed . “Since the Feng Family sold their dignity for a single bronze coin, I’ll withdraw from the auction . ”

“You…” Feng Xiuyu fumed . She’d wanted to use the same tactic to return the humiliation . Instead, she’d been shamed further . Luo Yunzhu was such a thug!
“I withdraw . ” Luo Yunzhu completely ignored Feng Xiuyu’s fury .
The auctioneer finally put two and two together and realized what was going on . He announced the highest bid three times, and there were no other bidders . He brought down the hammer and sealed in the final bid, saying, “The Feng Family placed a bid of 90 million and two bronze coins for a Grade 8 Spirit Boosting Pill . Next, we will start the bid for the Pill Recipe of the Spirit Stabilizing Pill . ”
“The Feng Family won the bid for the Grade 8 Spirit Boosting Pill with just one bronze coin . ”
“Haha, did they sell their dignity for a single bronze coin?”
“This temper of Luo Yunzhu’s…I like it . ”
… …
Feng Xiang and Feng Xiuyu turned green, then pale, then green again as they listened to the crowd’s murmurs . They shot a burning glare at Luo Yunzhu . At the same time, Feng Tianlan had once again put on the ragged cloak and rabbit mask . She went to the private room for VIPs to meet guests .
“Master Shen . ” Elder Chen quickly walked up to Feng Tianlan the moment he saw her .
Feng Tianlan cut straight to the point, “Where is the Marrow Cleansing Pill? I want to add something . ”

Steamforged Sorcery [A Steampunk LitRPG]
This is a fantasy story in a steampunk setting, not a sci-fi. The Great War ravaged the face of the earth many years ago. In the years that passed, the world rebuilt, mixing machinery and magic to form something new. Great blimps took to the sky, belching steam and smoke as metal cities sprouted like weeds below. Angel, a talented mage, scours the desert endlessly in search of lost knowledge. When it unexpectedly falls into his hands, he quickly comes to realize that the world is far larger – and far more deadly – than he ever could have predicted. But no amount of danger is going to keep Angel from seeking out greater strength and traveling the world, claiming all the greatest treasure that it has to offer. To most, the desert is a dangerous threat to be feared. To Angel, it’s a land of opportunity, waiting to be exploited. Steamforged Sorcery is, as the title suggests, a LitRPG Steampunk story with heavy focus on magic and scenery. The main character starts out relatively strong (but far from overpowered) but will eventually grow in strength to incredible levels. It is moderately paced and does not progress at ridiculous speeds. Release Schedule: 1,500 words daily Monday-Friday

Geoffrey Robertson, real name Alexey Barintski, has his secrets, and on top of his adventurous nature also a very positive attitude towards meat. Bloody meat. After years spent with British special forces, he is getting bored, so he is starting to look for something more interesting, something more fun. However, he gets a simple message - they need help at home. Although he has not seen his blood relatives for more than a generation, he returns to his native hills and almost dies… --- A story about werewolves and vampires. Release schedule will be random, but I will try to post at least 2 chapters a month, 2000 words per chapter on average. This is my first attempt at writing, and English is not my native language, so expect a mistake or two, or three. EDIT: the past few months of my life have been hectic and I could not write much. Nonetheless, I have the story already planned out, and will finish it sooner or later.

8 73THIRTEEN (Evie's Perspective)
This is the 2003 movie, Thirteen, told from the perspective of Evie Zamora. We got Tracy's point of view, but what about Evie? Why did she do the things she did?I've seen a few different interpretations of Evie's perspective and I decided to give it a go. This is how I think Evie thought and the reasons behind why she did the things she did. This is NOT canon, just a fanfiction, and I am not affiliated with Thirteen or Catherine Hardwick in any way.
