Sky Fall Legend 117 Hollywood Angel 4

"An ingredient with potent wood essence and pure essence," Jodye Trill was filled with joy. "If I secure this Hollywood Angel pure herb, I would only be lacking a source of potent star qi as the other main ingredient. Hmm, it would be best for that to also be of the B-grade. But even if it's C-grade, it would have to be at least 10,000-years-old..."

Vanessa Purple-Sky went on to explain the usefulness of the Hollywood Angel, and other essential details, giving this item all the gas she could before shouting, "Upset is 1 million silver crystal notes!"

"A novelty item. Only the eccentrics and old hustlers would buy this material," chided Aunt Miran casually.

"Why do you say so auntie?" asked Bilan Moon innocently.

"A longevity pill does exactly as its name implies, it prolongs the life of those who consume it," explained Aunt Miran softly, "However, doing so would cut off their dao potential. Heaven's Ascension pills are a bit better in that they can help a saint path warrior at the peak of the True Saint Realm ascend to the Heaven's Master Realm. However, without the proper comprehensions, they will never achieve anything further than this realm. As far as I know, there are only these such pills that can be concocted with this material."

"Merely, if they possess the capacity for those comprehensions, they would not need such a qi essence pill at all!" a brilliant light shone in Bilan Moon's eyes.

"It is indeed so, my sweet niece." Aunt Miran was impressed and pleased, she put a lot of effort into teaching this daughter of her sister and husband's brother. "These longevity pills and even the heaven's ascension pills are wastes that only the incapable would consume. Truly talented geniuses wouldn't require such potential ruining pills. Alchemists who refine these pills are all money hungry, or perhaps it is by special request from some old tycoon. Who doesn't fear death? It is perfectly normal."

Jodye was shocked to find that this annoying old lady was right, no one had actually wanted to bid! They had heard Vanessa's explanation, and the usefulness of this material was specialized and limited. Since it was only of the B-grade, the truly old and dying wealthy tycoons simply had no use for it. Spending a million silver for such an item?

Pass.

"1.1 million silver!" Jodye Trill used an indifferent and low spirited voice to call out, hoping to give off the impression of someone bidding out of boredom.

Vanessa Purple-Sky smiled wryly while glancing at private box number seven. Was this still considered giving herself face? "1.1 million silver going once."

"30 million silver crystal notes," came the elderly voice of a black-robed figure in Private Box Number 204. At the same time, a true essence sound transmission reached Jodye's ear, "Do not play with me, young man. This item is mine. You will withdraw, and you will get your guard dogs to withdraw as well!"

Jodye's face twitched slightly.

The auction hall was suddenly full of murmurs of intrigue. This was a rather big jump! This old tycoon clearly wanted to let the young pup know to stay in his place. This was a big boy's game! Sigma Octanis stroked his chin and was considered what his bid should be. How could he let his apprentice suffer insult?

"50 million silver crystal notes," Jodye Trill's voice was utterly indifferent as he called out an exorbitant amount. Jodye actually only had about 10 million silver crystal notes. However, he had enough gold to make up the difference three times over. Sigma and Joovee Nile were both shocked, before remembering the previously auctioned items. It seemed the kid was bold enough to risk it all for something he wanted.

"You dare!" the booming voice of an old demon suddenly echoed through Jodye's mind, making him cough out blood. Seeing this, both Sigma Octanis and Joovee Nile stood up, and original pressure instantly shrouded the auction hall.

"Private Box Number 7, what is the meaning of this," came the voice of a handsome middle-aged man with long silver hair who appeared from backstage. This one an elder level figure from the Purple-Sky Clan.

"Why don't you take off that hood and show me who is it that dares to threaten and harm this seat's apprentice," Sigma Octanis was condensing qi in his hand as he locked his perception on to the black-robed figure in Private Box Number 204. Joovee Nile was also entirely locked-on for the target, ready to ruin the entire show if need be.

"Do you think I, Bandit, fear a half-ass alliance like the two of you?" Crash Bandit sneered as he asked, "Neofrost, if you and your junior join me up here, then I can forget about this item. I will even take him as a disciple. His future will be far brighter, I will discipline him properly every night."

Jodye Trill was appalled, his face aghast! What discipline properly every night? This old pervert dared to threaten his chastity, Jodye's rage started to seethe and bubble.

"Old Man Crash Bandit, this is your first and only warning. If you or anyone here dares to attack or threaten our customers in this Winter Winds City, the Purple-Sky Clan will show no mercy in dealing with them!" A majestic voice suddenly thundered throughout the entire hall.

"This one wouldn't dare, milord Tower Master," said old man Crash Bandit with feigned humility, "I am merely trying to warn those who would play around on your grand stage of the consequences such actions bring. It was just a lesson, milord, a lesson."

"Our guests in Private Box Number 7 have given us zero reasons to believe they can not support a mere 50 million silver crystal notes," the majestic voice echoed through the hall once more. "Withdraw your prejudice, or we will act against you."

"I do not dare, I do not dare," said old man Crash Bandit calmly. However, he clearly didn't put the threats of the Purple-Sky Clan in his heart.

"Old Villain Crash Bandit is as wild as ever. Do White Serpent Cove think they run the city now?"

"They have grown more active in this area lately. Do you think they have their eyes on our Winter Winds City?"

"Those nobles sects and houses are fighting, what difference does it make to us? Let's just watch the show."

"If that kid wants to live past tomorrow, he should withdraw from this item."

"But isn't that the same box as those two masters from earlier? I don't think he should be too disadvantaged in such a situation."

"Oh yeah? The strength of others is ultimately not your own strength. What if they somehow get him separated from his protectors? The kid's ass is toast. You heard Bandit."

Everyone in the crowd had their own take on the situation. Crash Bandit's strong-armed approach had displeased many people and disrupted the flow of the auction.

"Crash Bandit? I know him," the Neofrost Master, Joovee Nile, was well connected in the underground circuits. He spoke his intelligence to Jodye Trill directly, "He's a Voodoo Priest. That's what they call those Saints who dual cultivate death origin powers. The scariest thing about him is his Saint path cultivation, it's at the peak of the Sociopath rank of the Heaven's Master Saint Realm. It would take at least 1,900 BP to kill him if he didn't raise any defenses. It's already impressive that you would survive a soul attack from him."

"I will kill him," Jodye Trill wiped the blood from his mouth with a handkerchief that Bilan Moon handed him, his defiant words causing her heart to accelerate. Jodye's rage was bubbling within his gut, and his Endless Carnage Qi Concept was activated. Slaughter qi swam through Jodye's blood and veins, merging into his flesh. His smooth and supple brown skin was releasing a pale red glow, as qi steam was emerging from his muscles. "I will definitely kill that man! I will shred him into pieces and then burn him away into nothing."

Bilan Moon who stood right next to Jodye covered her little mouth and dared not to breathe. Although the current Jodye Trill was a bit scary, it left Bilan excited. She didn't understand this feeling and subconsciously retreated.

Meanwhile, Aunt Miran was startled as she hadn't even noticed when her niece disappeared from her side, and that same niece was already attending to Jodye like a little wife. When she noticed Jodye's aura she suddenly frowned, "Wait a damn second… when did this brat reach the Earth Science Realm? Or was this his original strength all along? Does that Neofrost Master have such unique gear?"

"Hahaha, good, good," Joovee Nile laughed aloud and patted Jodye's shoulder while repeating the word good. He saw Jodye's state and presumed that the previous attack had angered the boy so much that it may have awakened a bloodline limit. Most genius class sages would possess a bloodline limit, this was not unusual at all. "This is the way I expect my little brother to be. Pay close attention to your current state, understand it as much as you can."

"This can be considered benefitting from misfortune," Sigma Octanis had also calmed down after confirming the identity of Crash Bandit. This man was an Honored Elder of White Serpent Cove. Sigma was truly fed up with this group. He was currently scrutinizing Jodye's body with his spiritual awareness. After observing the slaughter qi fusing into Jodye's body on its own, Sigma came to the same conclusion as Joovee Nile. However, Jodye's current state couldn't help but make Sigma feel some nostalgia for some reason.

What was it similar too?

"I will leave him alive for you to kill, then," Joovee Nile made a mental note to poison Crash Bandit after beating him up, and then he would let the matter rest at that.
