Chapter 43: Feng Xiuyu Wins the Auction for the Marrow Cleansing Pill
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
She was still worried, nonetheless . Even though Feng Tianlan was already an Alchemist, Luo Yunzhu was still troubled by the Spiritual Master’s capabilities .
Feng Tianlan chuckled slightly, “Just trust in me . ”
Luo Yunzhu looked at Feng Tianlan’s confident smile . For some reason, she could sense an air of trustworthiness about her . She couldn’t help but nod along . “Okay . ”
She would trust in Tianlan this one time . When the battle finally commenced, she would pay extra attention and not allow Tianlan to come into harm’s way .
Just as someone called out, “a million bank bills,” Luo Yunzhu said casually, “Two Spiritual Crystals . ”
Her voice might not be loud, but her message was unmistakably clear . Everyone who wanted to place their bids shut up at once . They all turned to Luo Yunzhu and erupted into murmurs .
“My goodness . Two Spiritual Crystals! The Luos are too generous with their bid . ”
“There are less than twenty Spiritual Crystals in the whole of South Peace City . To think that the Luos would take out two crystals at once!”
“It seems like we are no longer qualified to bid . However, I remember that the Feng family has got three Spiritual Crystals? I wonder if they would be willing to give them up . After all, the Feng family’s Third Miss isn’t some worthless good-for-nothing . ”
“… …”
Feng Xiang’s expression darkened as he glared at Luo Yuanjie and Luo Yunzhu . Those two were truly detestable . How could they put out two Spiritual Crystals just like that? He’d never planned to use any Spiritual crystals, even if it meant spending millions of Bank Bills . However, it seemed like he no longer had a choice .

“Father, forget it . I do not lack in talent . Anyway, we already have a Spirit Boosting Pill . ”
Feng Xiuyu shot a death glare at Feng Tianlan . She instinctively felt that Feng Tianlan was the one behind all this . After all, Luo Yunzhu had always been protective of Feng Tianlan . Feng Xiang’s face clouded as the auctioneer called the bid twice . Before he could answer his daughter, he raised his hand and said, “Three Spiritual Crystals . ”
A low-tier Spiritual Crystal was worth up to 90 million . Three crystals could add up to over 300 million! They were pouring in all they had .
“Father . ” Feng Xiuyu was both thrilled and shocked . She never thought that her father would spend such a fortune on her .
“Those Spiritual Crystals were always meant for you, anyway . Even if we spend them, there will always be more . Your elder sister will give one to you,” Feng Xiang explained, his voice still severe .
While practitioners could use the Spiritual Qi contained within low-tier Spiritual Crystals in their cultivation, they could only unlock this qi when they became Spiritual Masters . However, once they surpassed the Spiritual Grandmaster stage, the crystals would again become useless . Therefore, while these crystals were incredibly precious, there was never a shortage of them in the Feng family . There were plenty of low-tier Spiritual Crystals in the sect in which her eldest daughter was currently training .
“Okay . ” Feng Xiuyu looked smugly at Feng Tianlan and Luo Yunzhu . Those two good-for-nothings could continue dreaming about turning the tables . She was never short on resources for cultivation . No matter what, her genius sister was still training in the sect .
“Three Spiritual Crystals…is there a higher bid?” The auctioneer scanned the crowd and asked three times . Finally, he brought down the hammer and sealed the deal . “Grade 9 Marrow Cleansing Pill, sold for three Spiritual Crystals . Let us invite the Feng Clan Head to collect the Marrow Cleansing Pill . ”

Feng Chengzhi looked at Feng Xiang, brown-nosing . “Feng Clan Head, may I?” He still wanted to take another look at the Perfect Grade 9 Marrow Cleansing Pill .
Feng Xiang would never miss the chance to get into a Grade 3 Alchemist’s good books . He nodded, saying, “If it isn’t too much trouble, Alchemist Feng . ”
Feng Chengzhi went up to the stage and placed the Marrow Cleansing Pill respectfully in his two palms . He walked to Feng Xiang and asked again, “Feng Clan Head, may I borrow the Marrow Cleansing Pill for one night for a closer examination?”
He was genuinely curious about how this Alchemist had managed to refine a Perfect Grade 9 Marrow Cleansing Pill . Feng Xiang frowned, then looked at Feng Chengzhi again . He was thinking . Not only was Feng Chengzhi a Grade 3 Alchemist, but the Tianhai Trade House behind him had far deeper origins . He was not someone he could offend . On the other hand, lending the Alchemist the pill for a night would please him . It was not a bad deal .
