System Journey to Godhood

Chapter 15: Fierce Bidding

"Why?"

"If you use the phoenix blood and that pill, there are almost guarantee you will able to perfect your constitution and improving your bloodline," Snowy said.

Then, Snowy moved closer to her, whispering, "And, I'll give you cultivation technique that can unlock your bloodline and constitution potential."

Feeling hot breath breezing her ear, Feng Xue wiggled a bit, unintentionally letting out a purr.

"Hyaa~~."

The attendant surprised by the sudden voice and blushed when she looked at Snowy and Feng Xue.

From where she stood, it looks like Snowy was nibbling Feng Xue's ear.

'Mm. So they have that kind of relationship. How curious.' She was wondering what other thing they have done.

The same-sex relationship was not taboo, and it was not rare either.

Some dual cultivation practitioners make out with the same gender to further increase their yin or yang purity.

There was also a pure and honest relationship without caring about the benefit, but it can count on the finger.

Oblivious to the servant's misunderstanding, Feng Xue pushed Snowy back a little while shouting shyly, "Hey, you are too close!"

Snowy nodded slowly and kept her head down. She did not know why but feel anxious when Feng Xue pushed her away.

Feng Xue looking at Snowy a little bit guilty, she then said softly, "Hey, don't look so sad I just feel a little bit strange when you are so close Aaah Anyway, the Auction is still going. We need to bid quickly."

Feng Xue was actually a little bit happy, knowing that was the first time Snowy looks so concern about her.

But because she still cannot confirm her feelings, she did not know how to react to Snowy's attention.

Snowy relaxed after she knew that Feng Xue did not reject her.

She then asked, "Can't we get it for free? I remember that Madam Suyan gives us three free items."

"That's not how it works. We still need to bid to prevent suspicion. But it's practically had no upper bidding limit." Feng Xue cleared her misunderstanding.

"Is that so?" Snowy tilting her head.

"Yes. Aaah What can you do without me." Feng Xue said with a mild exasperation tone while her lips smiling faintly.

While the pink situation happened inside their room, the auction heated up.

The bid already reached 15 million golds but nobodies back out yet.

"I am Elder Xi from Xi Families, and I hope fellow Daoists can give me some face. I bid 15,5 million golds."

"Hah! How many faces do you want to have? One is more than plenty! I bid 15 million 750 thousand golds!"

"Hahaha. That's true, that's true. One cannot have too many faces! I'll bid 16 million golds!"

"Tang Yi, Wang Wei you two are going too far!"

The three old men looking at each other like they were nemesis. A scene like this was quite common in an auction. Petty family squabble often brought in, resulting in a bidding war.

Ding! Ding!

The audience can hear a ringing sound from one of the VIP rooms.

"17 million." A sonorous voice echoed through the room

All eyes focused on the sound source.

"Who is that?" one cultivator asked.

"That beautiful voice, it must be Young Miss Li!" The younger cultivator answered excitedly.

"Hoo, so one of the great family decide to join in." an old Expert joins the conversation.

When some audience was still talking about her background, beauty, and another unrelated topic, a voice so loud like a rumble of thunder came from another VIP Room.

"Hahaha. Does Miss Li want this pill? How about I give this to you? I'll bid 20 million!"

"I don't need your gift, Young Master Xiao. I can get it for myself. 21 million!" she scoffed at him.

"Don't be shy, Miss Li! 22 million! Hahaha!" he laughed louder.

"23 million." She retaliated.

"24 million." He did not intend to lose.

Just like that, the price increase to 30 million in no time at all.

"So you can also flirt like that." One young man seemingly had an epiphany.

"Nothing is impossible when you rich." His elder replied.

As the elder says, only money mattered in an auction. Whether you were quarreling, flirting, or insulting, as long as you had money and didn't directly violate the rule, you can do anything.

Eventually, Miss Li bid 35 million. She has been bidding aggressively all along so people knew that she was not messing around.

Young Master Xiao knew she was not going to give up. Thus, he relented.

Other experts also knew it was better to quit now while they are ahead and sell her some faces.

"35 million anyone else?" The auctioneer noticed a lull and shouted.

"35 million, going once 35 million, going twice" She began raising her wooden gavel.

Miss Li heaved a sigh of relief after seeing people backing up. Just one more call, and the pill would be hers.

Ding! Ding!

"50 million." A voice came from VIP room no.1. It was Feng Xue and Snowy's room.

"Who is it now?"

"That comes from City Lord's exclusive room!"

"But, that's a woman voice, though. She must be Young Miss Feng."

"So, this is the showdown between two Phoenix City's heavenly beauty!"

The hall became noisy once again.

'Why didn't she bid earlier?' Li Xuan, who once relaxed, soon felt helpless.

"Little Xue, so it's you." Li Xuan said in a tired tone.

"Sorry, Big Sis Xuan. I really need it. Just give it up this once, please?" Feng Xue pleading to her.

"Aah, so it be. Just make it up to me, later okay." Miss Li said in a soft tone.

She cannot win against this young lady, who she considers as her little sister.

It just a pill. She can get another one later. So she just gave up, albeit reluctant.

"Okay, Big Sis Xuan. I owe you one!" Feng Xue chirped.

The audience fell quiet once again as they knew the showdown was not going to happen.

Seeing that no one wanted to raise the bid. The auctioneer began the countdown.

"Young Miss Feng win with a bid of 50 million golds! The auctioneer announced.

"Why that lass want to buy that pill?" Elder Yang did not understand why his disciple bid that high for a pill.

"Maybe, it's not for her? Maybe it's for Snowy." Lin Min guessing.

"They sure are close," said Zi Ling snickering.

"What? Are you jealous?" Lin Ming chuckling.

"Who is jealous?"

Zi Ling pinched his waist and glaring at him. Lin Ming then let out a fake squeal act as if he hurt. At their level, a little pinch did not feel anything.

Seeing them flirting, Elder Yang just smiled wryly and said, "Why don't you just be a Dao companion already?"

Zi Ling fell quiet and murmured, "I can't"

"I know. I will wait until you ready, even if it's forever." Lin Ming said softly while patting her back.

Elder Yang had a little idea of what it was about and did not press the matter anymore. He was sadly sighing lamenting why the youth cannot be happy.
