Therefore, it was truly uncertain who would ultimately possess the Shennong Cauldron.
“Miss Ye, considering you’re an alchemist, you should be aware of the strength of our Ye family!” After careful consideration, Ye Hongxuan spoke, “If you’re willing to step back, I’ll take charge and allow you to join the Ye family for learning. Our alchemical techniques are certain to enhance your skills.”
This wasn’t an exaggeration. It could be asserted that the most skilled alchemists in the entire Hidden World were concentrated in the Ye family. However, the Ye family seldom took in external apprentices unless the person displayed extraordinary talent.
While many alchemists in the Hidden World aspired to learn from the Ye family, not everyone had that opportunity.
“Master Ye, I appreciate your esteem for me.” Ye Lengan shook her head, “However, I don’t need such an opportunity. Please offer it to someone else!
All I desire is the Shennong Cauldron.”
Observing Ye Leng’an’s unyielding demeanor, Ye Hongxuan found himself at a loss for words.
“So, what do you need to do to make you withdraw your bid!” Ye Wanwan, standing nearby, grew impatient and exclaimed, “As long as you concede, we can pensate you. Moreover, being an alchemist, you should know that forging a good relationship with our Ye family is undoubtedly beneficial for you.”
In her urgency, Ye Wanwan’s tone carried a hint of forcefulness.
Finally, Huangfu Ruiling spoke, directing his words toward Ye Hongxuan.
“Master Ye, in auctions, it’s each person for themselves. If you want it,
continue bidding. I believe, in this matter, there’s no chance for an agreement between us.’
Ye Hongxuan’s expression fluctuated, his mind in turmoil.
Ultimately, the conversation between the two parties yielded no results.
Soon, they returned to the venue. Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Lengan maintained unchanged expressions, almost devoid of any extra emotion. However, Ye Hongxuan and Ye Wanwan’s faces weren’t pleasant. Especially Ye Wanwan, her countenance was so dark.
After their return, bidding resumed promptly.
Ye Lengan continued to bid promptly, immediately following Ye Hongxuan’s bid.
On the contrary, Ye Hongxuan seemed indecisive. Even after Ye Lengan’s bid, he would deliberate before raising the price again. Moreover, the increments in his bids became noticeably smaller.
Witnessing this, speculation arose among the onlookers. It seemed likely that this auction item would end up in the hands of the fiancée of the head of the Huangfu family.
However, they hadn’t anticipated that Master Huangfu would be willing to pay such a substantial price for his fiancée. Clearly, he held his fiancée in high regard!
Ye Wanwan, who had been observing from the sidelines, grew increasingly anxious. Yet, there was nothing she could do but watch.
Just when everyone thought Ye Hongxuan would concede, he stood up again and said, “Hello, I believe continuing the bidding in this manner is futile. May I inquire if you can contact the owner of this auction item and check if they are open to exchanging it for something else?”
Hearing Ye Hongxuan’s words, the auctioneer on stage was momentarily stunned. “Master Ye, you mean…”
“In addition to the 1.2 billion Spirit Coins, I’m willing to add a Rejuvenation Pill.” Ye Hongxuan declared, “You can ask the seller if they’re willing to accept such a deal.’
1.2 billion was the current bid.
“Rejuvenation Pill?” The auctioneer on stage was taken aback. He sucked in a breath of cold air and remarked, “I need to seek guidance on this.”
This was a first in his many years as an auctioneer. However, it was likely that both the higher-ups and the seller would agree.
After all, the Rejuvenation Pill wasn’t an ordinary medicinal pill. It ranked just below the Nine-Cycle Soul-Returning Pill, and its rarity was second only to the latter. While lacking the miraculous effects of the Nine-Cycle
Soul-Returning Pill, the Rejuvenation Pill facilitated swift recovery for severe injuries..
