Capítulo 14: The Little Rich Woman
"Five hundred and sixty thousand gold coins!"
Just as Jia Lie Bi finished speaking, Xiao Zhan immediately followed up.
"You... Patriarch Xiao, you truly have guts!"
Jia Lie Bi suppressed his urge to curse, snorting coldly, "I just wonder if spending so much money on this Wind Scroll Technique will cause a financial crisis for the Xiao family?"
Jia Lie Bi had already spent over thirty thousand gold coins bidding for the Foundation Establishment Elixir earlier. Now, putting up fifty-five thousand gold coins to bid for the Wind Scroll Technique was almost his limit; otherwise, it could easily lead to an economic crisis for the Jia Lie family.
The overall strength of the Jia Lie and Xiao families was similar. Since Jia Lie Bi couldn't come up with more money, he didn't believe Xiao Zhan could do much better.
"Thank you for your concern, Patriarch Jia Lie, but the Xiao family's financial issues are none of your business. I am not foolish enough to spend all our liquid assets on this Wind Scroll Technique."
Xiao Zhan shook his head playfully, then took out a white jade pill bottle from his sleeve and asked Ya Fei on the auction stage, "Miss Ya Fei, does the Primer Auction House allow bartering?"
"Of course!"
"That's good. This jade bottle contains Qi Gathering Powder personally refined by Dan King Gu He. How much is it worth?"
More than half a month ago, Xiao Feng defeated Nalan Yanran and won a Qi Gathering Powder and a Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill from her.
Xiao Zhan had already consumed the Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill, which helped him successfully break through to a six-star Dou Grandmaster. The Qi Gathering Powder hadn't found a suitable user yet.
Originally, Xiao Zhan and the three elders had planned to give the Qi Gathering Powder to Xiao Xun'er, but she displayed the cultivation of a one-star Dou Practitioner in front of them.
Aside from Xiao Xun'er, among the younger generation of the Xiao family, the highest cultivation belonged to Elder Xiao Ning's grandson. However, Xiao Ning's cultivation was only at the eighth stage of Dou Disciple, not yet qualified to consume the Qi Gathering Powder, so it remained with Xiao Zhan.
"Qi Gathering Powder is a fourth-tier primary pill, with a market price of about 180,000 gold coins."
Ya Fei was the first to recover from her surprise, smiling as she said, "If Patriarch Xiao really wants to sell this Qi Gathering Powder, our auction house is willing to purchase it at a high price of 190,000 gold coins."
"Then let's count it as 190,000 gold coins!"
Xiao Zhan nodded in satisfaction, then turned to Jia Lie Bi and asked, "Patriarch Jia Lie, do you want to bid more?"
"..."
Jia Lie Bi's face darkened, and he snorted coldly, "You win this time!"
Xiao Zhan smiled slightly and turned to Ya Fei, "Miss Ya Fei, I think you can announce the result now?"
"Congratulations to Patriarch Xiao Zhan for successfully bidding for the Wind Scroll Technique!"
Ya Fei smiled charmingly, raised the auction hammer, and lightly knocked it, signaling the end of the auction.
After returning to the Xiao family, Xiao Zhan immediately made a copy of the "Wind Scroll Technique" and handed it to Xiao Feng.
Xiao Zhan patted Xiao Feng's shoulder and said, "Feng'er, this is all your father can do for you. The rest is up to you."
"Understood!"
Xiao Feng nodded slightly, "Father, I'll go back to cultivate now."
"Go ahead!"
Watching Xiao Feng leave, Xiao Zhan also started his retreat, focusing on practicing the Wind Scroll Technique.
"Brother Feng, are you there?"
Just as Xiao Feng returned to his courtyard and was about to study the Wind Scroll Technique, he heard Xiao Xun'er's clear and melodious voice outside.
Hearing this, Xiao Feng quickly got up and opened the bedroom door.
He saw Xiao Xun'er, dressed in a purple dress, standing gracefully at the door like a budding lotus, her pretty face adorned with a light smile.
"Xun'er, is there something you need? Come in and talk."
At Xiao Feng's invitation, Xiao Xun'er walked into the elegantly decorated bedroom.
Xiao Xun'er glanced around with her beautiful eyes and finally focused on the scroll spread out on the bed.
"Brother Feng, if I'm not mistaken, the content on that scroll should be the Wind Scroll Technique that Uncle Xiao just bid for, right?"
Xiao Feng smiled and nodded, "Yes, you have quite the intelligence network."
"That's great!"
Xiao Xun'er smiled brightly, "I have obtained two wind attribute Dou Techniques that can be used with this cultivation method."
As she spoke, Xiao Xun'er flipped her hand, and two light green scrolls appeared.
"Brother Feng, these two scrolls contain Dou Techniques called Storm Split Dance and Phantom Step, both advanced Black-level techniques."
Xiao Xun'er introduced with a clear voice, "Storm Split Dance is an offensive Dou Technique that can release powerful wind blades to attack enemies or form a defensive barrier of wind blades around the practitioner.
Phantom Step is a movement Dou Technique that allows the practitioner to create realistic illusionary clones with Dou Qi, which can also attack.
When mastered, Phantom Step can create hundreds of illusionary clones in an instant, with speed comparable to low-level Earth-level techniques."
"..."
Looking at the two scrolls Xiao Xun'er handed over, Xiao Feng fell silent for a moment, then smiled wryly, "You always give me such difficult problems. How should I repay you?"
"Brother Feng, if you really want to thank me, how about taking me shopping tomorrow?"
Xiao Xun'er pouted, pretending to be upset, "Since you made the three-year agreement with Nalan Yanran, you've been focused on cultivating and haven't spent any time with me."
"Alright, alright, I won't cultivate tomorrow morning. I'll take you out for a good time, okay?"
"That's more like it."
Xiao Xun'er took out an ancient black ring and handed it to Xiao Feng, "Here! Brother Feng, take this storage ring so you won't have to carry all the stuff when we go shopping."
"Alright, alright."
Taking the storage ring and scrolls from Xiao Xun'er, Xiao Feng joked playfully, "If I can't repay your kindness, I might as well marry you."
Xiao Xun'er's face flushed slightly, "Brother Feng, you're so bad~ always teasing me."
"Um..."
Just as Xiao Xun'er was blushing, a somewhat awkward voice suddenly sounded, "Am I interrupting something?"
"Hmph!"
Xiao Xun'er was startled by Xiao Yan's voice, glared at him, then covered her red face and left in a hurry.
