With Xuanyuan's aid, Huayu earned over an extra million master coins in commission. She had a victorious smile throughout the auction.
"It's almost the end now. Only two items left. An upper rank earth instrument called "Dragon Boots". The price starts at 50,000 king coins. Please make your bids!"
For an earth instrument, a lower rank piece was worth at least a million master coins; a middle rank five million; an upper rank fifty million. Fifty million was 50,000 king coins. The Dragon Boots were obviously powerful, judging from its name.
The moment the boots were placed on the table, Bai whispered in Xuanyuan's ear. The warm, moist air from his ear stirred his imagination. "The Dragon Boots were made by an imperial fighter from the Hu family in the City of Fighting Dragons. It has the potential to become a top rank earth instrument. It has superb defense power and can stimulate your fighting Qi, so you can fly easier with those boots on.
Bai's skin was snow white with a rosy blush on her cheeks. Her voice tender and sweet. Xuanyuan was finding it hard to breath.
"I see. Let's take a look at how others are bidding first." He killed the thoughts going through his mind and concentrated on the auction stage. There were two images of dragons embroidered on the boots.
It's extremely rare to see an upper rank earth instrument. Someone as strong as Fung Lie also has one, his spear. They are precious. Everyone in the auction went into a frenzy for the earth instrument.
"That's so rare! Wait, isn't a dragon the symbol of the Yin Family?"
"That's right. I've heard that it was made by an imperial fighter from the Hu Family to insult the Yin Family. Those who aren’t powerful enough shouldn't wear it, it might get them killed if they encounter someone from the Eastern Dynasty."
"Well, the Yin Family is very powerful in the Eastern Dynasty. I've heard that they have a marriage arranged with the Hai Family."
"It's the young lady of the Yin Family. She's going to be married with the young master Hai."
.......
Xuanyuan heard the conversation. The news of Yin Zhenluo marrying Hai Family's young master struck him like lightning. His mind went blank. He suddenly felt a surge of murderous intentions fill his mind, this caught Bai off guard. Yan Ziyun was also surprised.
"Xuanyuan, what happened?" She asked.
Yan Ziyun's voice pulled him out of his thoughts. He smiled innocently,
"Nothing. I just remembered some old memories."
Looking at his smile, Yan Ziyun recalled the conversation from downstairs. She realized what the problem was and thought to herself, "The woman he is chasing after was lady Yin, then..." She smiled bitterly.
A voice from box number ten shook everyone back to reality, "60,000!"
Another bidding war began.
