Into the World of Medicine Chapter 96.8

Once Nangong Ting heard Liu Pinyan’s confirmation on the deal, he could finally exhale in relief . He was anxious that in case that even with this bid he couldn’t win and the bids further escalated, then it would definitely impair Nangong’s family foundation .

Heads of other three families also looked unsightly . As long as they thought that now Nangong family would instantly gain ten Foundation Establishment cultivators, their mood fell lower than the deepest trench .

For a long time now, Nangong family was the strongest one of the four . Although this time Murong family won the championship at the Clan Assembly, it was a known fact, that it was much weaker than the Nangongs .

Moreover, the one who won this glory for the Murongs was always treated as a waste Murong Qingyan . Even if technically she belonged to Murong Family, there was definitely no place in her heart for them .

Contrary to the complex moods of Heads of Four Great Families, Liu Pinyan’s mood bordered on jubilant .

Although he long knew that these Zhuji pills would fetch a very good price, it was out of his expectations that it would be that good .

Even if they received the commision of only 5% from 100 million gold coins, it was still quite a bit of wealth .

It could be said that the auction of Zhuji pills was the highest point of the whole auction . Following Zhuji pills, other items of exceptional quality were auctioned, but none of these items could excite guests as much . Although these things were good, the prices they raised were not so impressive .

Finally, it was the time for the last item to be auctioned .

Liu Pinyan placed a small box on the platform .

Looking at this box, the audience felt puzzled . Was the last item a simple box? This shouldn’t be a sort of joke, should it?

Noticing the doubts amongst the public, Liu Pinyan explained with a smile: “What we auction is definitely not this box, but what’s inside it . ”

As soon as he was done with his explanation, he opened the box and showed everyone a roll of parchment in it: “What we auction this time is this map . However, calling it a map might not be right! Because it’s only a remaining part of the map . As far as we know, this map leads to the third-ranked Divine Flame, the Netherworld Ghostly Flame . ”

“But since the map is incomplete, the starting bid is only 10 000 gold coins . ”

“20 000 gold coins,” someone quickly raised the bid .

The bidding went on, but the increments weren’t big . The value of a Divine Flame was unquestionable, especially so for apothecaries and pill refiners . If a pill refiner had a Divine Flame to assist him, his results would improve tremendously . It’s only that a Divine Flame wasn’t easy to subdue . And if a person failed in suppressing it, that unlucky person would not just lose his life, he would be swallowed by the divine Flame so that even ashes wouldn’t remain .

Besides, this was only a remnant of the map . Even if it was bought, there was no guarantee that this Divine Flame would be found . Therefore, not many people were interested in this map .

“Master, let’s bid for it!” Unlike reserved atmosphere in the hall below, Little White was jumping from excitement: “We must get this map and find the Netherworld Ghostly Flame!”

Murong Qingyan smiled at him and nodded, obviously agreeing with Little White .

She waited until the bids almost died down and pushed the button, saying: “100 000 gold coins . ”

After her bid, other people stopped bidding altogether . After all, this kind of damaged map didn’t hold much value in the public’s eyes, so the bidding wasn’t enthusiastic in the first place .
