Beauty and the Bodyguard

4855 Participating in the auction

After all, to obtain an essence cultivating pill at this time, for those cultivators at the peak of the late Yuanying stage, this was a precious ticket to the road to a Big Shot.

"Three million!" Lin Yi didn't hesitate to raise the price by another level, and the competitors 'eyes twitched. They were all considered rich people compared to the others, but they were all fake rich people in front of Lin Yi. Only he was a real rich man!

"Three million and fifty thousand!" An old man with snow-white hair said as he clenched his teeth.

Lin Yi glanced at him-this was a peak-level late-stage nascent soul practitioner, and it seemed like he was putting up a last fight for himself. Practitioners might have long lives, but they lose their spirit when they get too old, and it'd be hard for them to have another breakthrough. If he couldn't reach xuansheng in one go, he'd probably never have a chance.

It was a sad thought, but Lin Yi wouldn't take pity on an unrelated outsider. He had to get this essence-cultivating golden devil grass today, and he didn't even blink,"Three million two hundred thousand!"

The white-haired old man's expression froze as he looked at Lin Yi's calm face. He was filled with grief and anger. His body trembled as he tried to open his mouth, but he couldn't shout. He sat back down with a lonely face.

Three million and fifty thousand was his limit. He had to borrow it from someone else. He couldn't afford anything higher than that. He couldn't win against Lin Yi, who was rich. Even if he was lucky enough to get the essence cultivating golden devil grass, it would be useless. He needed a lot of spirit Jade to get help to make the essence cultivating pill.

"Three million three hundred thousand!" Just as the white-haired old man was scared away, a young woman immediately came to pick him up. She was a second generation cultivator in the Academy and was much more confident than the white-haired old man. She was also determined to get the essence cultivating golden devil grass.

Bao zuoliang and su kesheng were overjoyed at this scene. They released the essence cultivating golden devil grass just for this scene. As long as Lin Yi didn't give in to these people, they would fight it out sooner or later. Even if they didn't make enemies, they would.

All of this was secondary-the person that su kesheng had made for Lin Yi hadn't even spoken yet. After all, that person's desire for the essence cultivating golden devil grass was even greater than Lin Yi 's!

"Three million eight hundred thousand!" Lin Yi looked at the woman, and the number she blurted out shocked everyone. This wasn't a ready-made essence cultivating pill, it was just an essence cultivating golden devil grass. Was there a need to give such a sky-high price?

He had no choice, the rich were just willful.

"Three ... Three million nine hundred thousand!" The young woman looked at Lin Yi angrily and gritted her teeth after some hesitation.

"Four million two hundred thousand!" Lin Yi's expression was still as calm as ever, not even looking at him. With his wealth, he was destined to be invincible in today's event where there weren't any big shots. No matter how strong a second generation practitioner was, they were nothing in front of him. They used to be the ones smashing people to death with spirit jades, but now it was time for them to experience what it felt like to be smashed to death by spirit jades.

The young woman choked as expected, her face turning green and white as she glared at Lin Yi. She hesitated for a long time before sitting back down.

It wasn't that her family couldn't afford that much spiritual Jade, but with the price of the essence cultivating pill, even if she managed to get the essence cultivating golden devil grass, she'd be scolded by the elders of her family. All her spiritual Jade was provided by her family, and she didn't dare to squander it like Lin Yi did.

"It seems like no one will fight with you for it now." Xinyan smiled-she'd been following Donghai's nun for a long time, after all, and her knowledge was far greater than the average student 's. Four million and two hundred thousand spirit Jade was enough to buy a ready-to-use pill, and no one would want to fight Lin Yi for it, other than the rich.

"I don't think it'll be that simple." Lin Yi shook his head-he'd been paying attention to one person throughout the entire auction, not Bao zuoliang, but the red-haired old man who was sitting in the middle of the hall.

Lin Yi thought that Qing Danzi's appearance was weird enough, but he didn't expect to meet someone even weirder. Not only was his hair and beard red, but even his face was abnormally red. This wasn't just the sky-class Island version of master Guan-he was like the fire Lord!

Of course, Lin Yi didn't pay attention to this red-haired old man just because of his weird looks-it was because of his aura and strength. Even if he just sat there and didn't make a sound, he had a strong presence-this was a true mountain opening powerhouse, and he'd never held back his aura!

Under normal circumstances, any of the big shots in the beginning stage of the sect should have taken the initiative to avoid suspicion like Ling Yuanqing and the other big shots of the Academy. After all, at their level, it was very rare for anything good to appear in the individual auction. Furthermore, as a Big Shot, they should have the airs of a Big Shot. If they came out to compete with the younger generation, what kind of prestige would they have?

However, it was unknown what the red-haired old man's intentions were for appearing here. Previously, he had not spoken about so many things, but one thing was certain. Since he had come, he definitely had an intention.

Soon, the red-haired old man noticed Lin Yi looking at him-he turned around and looked back without any expression, but the terrifying aura of a sect opening powerhouse still made Lin Yi's heart jump.

Lin Yi couldn't help but think to himself-could this guy really be the fire Lord? Being looked at by him like that, she felt like she was burning up!

"His name is Dachang Lu. He's not a high-level official in the Academy, but a guest elder invited by city Lord baofala at a high price. I heard that he's in the early stage of the mountain opening realm, and his status in the city Lord's mansion is only one step lower than baofala 'S. He's one of the top three big shots." Xinyan said quietly.

"The city Lord's mansion's Big Shot? Then what is he doing here?" The bad feeling in Lin Yi's heart intensified.

"I don't know ..." Wang Xinyan and Huang xiaotao looked at each other and shook their heads. They had only heard of this person before, and only knew some rumors about him. They didn't know much about him.

The crowd was silent. Those who were eyeing the essence cultivating golden devil grass were all scared by Lin Yi. The price had been raised to four million and two hundred thousand. Everyone wanted to but didn't have the strength. They could only look at it and sigh.

At this time, Lin Yi's bad feeling became a reality. Dachang Lu suddenly opened his mouth,"Four million five hundred thousand!"

The others might not have enough capital, but he was a big Shot at the beginning of his cultivation, so he could still afford this amount of spiritual Jade.

Lin Yi's eyes twitched, but he wasn't going to give up on the herb just because of the other party's identity. If it was a pure competition of wealth, he had enough confidence now and raised the price without hesitation,"Five million!" (To be continued.)
