Chapter 26: Auction

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Without paying attention to the two girls’ surprised faces, Ye Mo continued, “With my alchemy technique, it isn’t easy for me to reform too many Stabilizing Pills, but I can reform Fortifying Pills in large quantities. Moreover, this pill does have a strengthening body effect.”

“That is amazing! Your pill reformation technique is incredible! Can you teach me?” Leng Leng batted her eyelashes and looked at Ye Mo. Her previously abrasive demeanor had suddenly turned to curiosity.

“If you are not an alchemist, you will not be able to learn this!” Ye Mo said deliberately.

Leng Leng’s big eyes widened. Quickly, she grabbed and shook Ye Mo by the arm, and said pleadingly, “Brother Ye Mo, I have a few Stabilizing Pills at home. Can you help reform them?”

“Am I not a leech?”

“Haha, that was a misunderstanding, all just misunderstandings. How could people like brother Ye Mo take advantage of me?” Leng Leng said imploringly.

“Let’s talk about that when the auction is over. Our mission at hand is to get that high-grade magic weapon first.” Ye Mo said.

After the three discussed and finalized their plans, Ye Mo returned to the Ye mansion.

The next day, when just as the sun rose and the sleeping Limestone City began to show its ferocious face, all the clans began their preparations. Today was the day when one of them would get their hands on a high-grade magic weapon. As for which family would be the final victor, the result was still unknown.

In a bedroom, a black-haired man sat on a wooden bed with his legs crossed, eyes slightly closed, and air continuously flowing through the man’s nostrils. The man slightly raised his brows, and suddenly, the man opened his eyes with a faint smile on his face.

“It won’t be long until I can open the mortal gates in my legs.”

Ye Mo jumped off the wooden bed at once and asked Uncle Fu to notify Elder Yin that he would be taking a day off, and that he had something to do today and would not be able to help him with the fire blowing. This resulted in a burst of insults from Uncle Fu, but Uncle Fu knew Ye Mo would be up to something, so he obeyed and went anyway.

Ye Mo left the Ye Mansion, but changed in a black robe that had a hood that covered his entire head, making it difficult for others to see his appearance. Xiao Yue and Leng Leng were also standing at the gate of the Xiao mansion waiting for Ye Mo.

“Hey you two little girls, how do I get to the Muyang auction house?” The two girls heard an old man’s voice nearby.

“Hello sir, are you also going to the auction? Let us take you with us.” Leng Leng said.

“Haha, Ye Mo, it seems that you can deceive a lot of people with this voice, even the wicked Leng Leng has been tricked by you.” Xiao Yue grinned.

“Ye Mo?” Leng Leng was dazed and said, frustrated, “Hey, Ye Mo, how dare you trick me!”

“Okay, let’s go to the auction house,” Ye Mo said while leading Leng Leng and Xiao Yue to the auction. Ye Mo’s fake voice was very good, although it still carried a slightly immature tone. For people who were not familiar with Ye Mo, though, it would be hard to tell the difference.

The three of them walked to the main street and attracted a lot of attention. Xiao Yue and Leng Leng were already for a long time famous beauties in Limestone City, so the pedestrians were all intrigued by them as they saw the two of them walking behind a black-robed man. fre(e)webno(v)el

“Once we’re at the auction, I will be the master of both of you. I have to pretend to be an inscrutable alchemist in order to make the other three families fear me,” Ye Mo reminded them as they approached the auction house and continued walking. Xiao Yue and Leng Leng then promptly followed him and did not complain. Their journey today was a gamble. The Xiao family could not stand up to the other three families, so they had no say about the auction.

At that moment, the auction was already crowded with people, and it was unprecedentedly lively, despite the fact that many families knew that they were unable to compete with the big families. Nevertheless, to be able to witness the presence of a high-grade magic weapon would already be a great joy for them, not to mention that there would be other precious items auctioned off as well.

One must have at least one purple gold in order to enter the auction. Members of clans all took out cards as identifications of their status to show the security guards outside the auction before entering.

Subsequently, people gave way, and people from the Ye, Mo and Qin clans entered the auction house.

“Let’s go!” Ye Mo said and walked to the auction at a slow pace.

“Gentleman, you must have at least one purple gold to enter the auction house.”

Xiao Yue took out a golden card and said, “This card should be enough.” freewebnove l.com

The guard did not say anything else after seeing the golden card, and the three slowly entered the auction house.

The auction venue was very crowded. The sea of faces, accompanied with clamorous noise, made Ye Mo somewhat uncomfortable.

The three of them walked directly into the hall, and until arriving at the auction, it became a little less noisy. The three walked to a space near the auction platform, sat down, and quietly waited for the start of the auction.

“Sister Yue Yue, there are just too many people here. We should have identified as the Xiao family, so we might be able to get a VIP room.” Leng Leng looked at the surroundings and felt uncomfortable.

“My father would not have agreed to this,” Xiao Yue said lightly.

Xiao Yuanshan was very cautious in his actions. Step by step, he elevated the Xiao family to become one of the four giants.

“Hey, why is Miss Xiao Yue at the auction but only sitting here? If the young master of the Barbarians knew, he will be angry as hell, so how about coming to my VIP room instead?”

Mo Feng was preparing to head to his VIP room, but suddenly saw Xiao Yue with the veil. He thought it was just an illusion at first, as how would a girl like Xiao Yue sit in ordinary seats like the others? He came to make sure, but did not expect it really to be Xiao Yue.

The Barbarians? Hidden under the black robe, a thought crossed his Ye Mo’s mind. In the realm of Tianwu, there were a variety of races; the Barbarians in the southern wilderness and the Sky Witches in the northern wilderness are the two most powerful races among the minorities. They only followed the orders of the royal family, but the royal family had never commanded these races before. They only had to hand over a certain amount of resources to the royal family each year.

Does that mean there was some relationship between the Xiao clan and the Barbarians?

“No, I am fine sitting here with my master,” Xiao Yue responded gently, but when hearing the mention of the Barbarians, her brows slightly raised.

“Master?” Not until then had Mo Feng noticed Ye Mo in a black robe and could not help but ask, “I have never heard of you having a master.”

“Mo Feng, he is the master of both of us. He is an alchemist who is even more powerful than President Qin Mo,” Leng Leng said.

“Haha, that’s ridiculous, how can there be an alchemist who is even better than President Qin Mo in Limestone City? Have you two just been deceived by this old man?”

Mo Feng smiled disdainfully. Even though his laugh wasn’t too loud, some of the people waiting around looked to their side with rude expressions on their faces.

Qin Mo is the president of the Alchemist Division, recognized as the most powerful alchemist in Limestone City.

“Little boy, the Tianwu Kingdom is huge. Is it only Limestone City that has alchemists?”

Ye Mo spoke in his hoarse voice, quietening Mo Feng immediately. Ye Mo’s meaning was very clear, that he was not from Limestone City.

Mo Feng did not dare to speculate on his identity and did not suspect any further after seeing the respectful looks of the two girls towards the black robed man.

“Xiao Yue, I heard that the young master of the Barbarians will also be coming to the auction. Be careful around them.”

“You should be the one who needs to be careful. Don’t think that support from the Barbarians make you suddenly powerful.” Leng Leng pointed at Mo Feng with one hand on her waist.

“When the Mo family becomes the most powerful clan, I will make you kneel in front of me for mercy.” Mo Feng stared at Leng Leng, with a trace of lust in his expression, and then turned and walked to his VIP room.
