“You may not know that our Underground Market’s auctions don’t feature fixed items!
The goods we auction are adjusted on the fly depending on the needs of our guests, or whether the items they bring are deed worthy of auction,” Butler Yang explained diligently.
“You might have heard that our auctions are held infrequently and last an entire night.
Therefore, we try to include as many valuable treasures for auction as possible!”
Mo Jiuli and Guyan understood the rules upon hearing this.
It had to be said the system had its rits and flaws.
However, they couldn’t complain much; the rules had been set by others after all…
At that mont, when Butler Yang’s gaze fell upon the fan in Guyan’s hand, his eyes lit up and he asked, “Would the guest be willing to put up this fan for auction?”
Upon hearing this, Guyan’s mouth twitched severely.
This butler’s gaze was indeed sharp, but he would never sell this fan as he had put in so much effort to fully reclaim it, not to ntion that it was no ordinary fan…
“Hehe, this is my personal weapon, so naturally, it’s not for sale!” Guyan smiled faintly and said.
“Oh, my apologies for my presumptuousness!” said Butler Yang, though his eyes still lingered on Guyan’s fan.
Even though he was neither an artifact refiner nor a treasure appraiser, he could tell at a glance that the fan was extraordinary and surely a rare item…
“These are the items I would like to auction.
Would you see if they are acceptable, Butler Yang?” Mo Jiuli asked with a slight smile.
Butler Yang ca back to his senses and saw three brocade boxes appearing on the tea table in front of him.
He walked over, picked up one of the brocade boxes, opened it, and was instantly petrified…
Guyan saw a muddy dicinal herb in the brocade box with so soil still clinging to its roots.
It was a golden dicinal herb no thicker than a thread and about the length of a palm.
This was his first ti seeing it, and he had no idea what kind of dicinal material it was…
However, the very fact that it had so shocked the butler suggested it was no ordinary dicinal material.
Guyan speculated in his mind…
After a while, Butler Yang finally regained his composure and asked Mo Jiuli in astonishnt, “Dare I ask, honored guest, is this…
perhaps…
the Phantom Grass?”
“Yes.
You are correct, it is indeed Phantom Grass!” Mo Jiuli nodded and said, a bit surprised that the butler actually recognized Phantom Grass.
Phantom Grass was a type of dicinal herb from her Space, and although not the best in her Space, it was an existing yet rare herb on the Haotian Continent!
Contrary to its na, Phantom Grass isn’t a hallucinogenic dicinal herb but rather one used for healing injuries.
Specifically for internal injuries, no matter how severe they were, adding just a tiny bit of Phantom Grass would heal them within an hour, with no side effects…
Thus, Phantom Grass was extrely precious yet exceedingly rare.
Even on the Haotian Continent, there had not been a single one seen for hundreds of years!
That was why Butler Yang was so astounded…
“It really is Phantom Grass!
The Deputy Venue Master has been searching for 500 years, and finally, one has appeared!
I don’t know if you, distinguished guest, would be willing to sell this Phantom Grass to our Underground Market?
Rest assured, we will arrange for soone to buy it back during the auction!” Butler Yang tentatively inquired.
“Sure!” Mo Jiuli nodded, stating she had plenty of Phantom Grass, and her goal was simply to make money from selling it; it didn’t matter who bought it.
Butler Yang was overjoyed upon hearing this, carefully closing the lid of the brocade box before picking up another brocade box to open.
The shock of the Phantom Grass made him handle everything a lot more gently…
