"Chen Yang! Are you crazy? You really auctioned it off, over 1.6 billion! Where did you get so much money?" Lisa was stunned at this moment.

Chen Yang had been bidding all along, and her heart was constantly pounding.

She really didn’t know if Chen Yang was joking or actually intending to buy it.

But if he really buys it, where does he get so much money?

Looking at Chen Yang dressed plainly, and based on her investigation, Chen Yang really shouldn’t have that much money.

"A wise man has his own plan, and besides, don’t underestimate people, okay? Why say I don’t have money?" Chen Yang replied with a smile.

"I..." Lisa was rendered speechless.

She really didn’t know Chen Yang very well, only had some general understanding through some investigation.

"Sir, you’ve just auctioned off a top-grade Spirit Stone. Could you please follow us to the back room to settle the payment?" At this moment, someone from the auction approached them.

They wanted Chen Yang to go backstage to settle the payment.

"Sure." Chen Yang agreed directly and then turned to Lisa, saying, "Wait for me a bit, I’ll be back soon."

Saying this, Chen Yang got up and followed the auction staff.

Leaving the auction seat, he headed straight to the backstage.

The backstage of the auction had quite a few staff members.

Upon entering a private room, a rather obese man with a face full of fortune walked in.

The man was dressed formally, with Qi Cultivation Realm of cultivation.

Through the work badge on his chest, one could know he was the auction manager.

Named Zhu Zhengming!

"Manager Zhu, this is the gentleman who purchased the top-grade Spirit Stone." The staff introduced Chen Yang to Zhu Zhengming, and simultaneously introduced Zhu Zhengming to Chen Yang: "Sir, this is our manager. You can transfer the auction amount to him."

"Haha, sir, congratulations on your successful auction."

Zhu Zhengming, after listening to the introduction, politely extended his hand to shake with Chen Yang, then without saying much, led Chen Yang to take a closer look at the top-grade Spirit Stone.

"Sir, this is the top-grade Spirit Stone you auctioned. If confirmed correct, you can proceed with the payment and transfer on-site." Zhu Zhengming smiled broadly.

Chen Yang looked at the top-grade Spirit Stone, placed in a wooden box, about the size of a fist, crystal clear, resembling Beautiful Jade, and he couldn’t help but feel excited inside.

It’s not that this thing is so precious.

But it can help him quickly improve his cultivation, and even has other effects that make him feel excited.

"Okay, that’s right, this is it." Chen Yang didn’t touch it to verify, but he believed the auction wouldn’t resort to trickery, and he could also clearly feel the surging Spiritual Power contained within the stone.

"Haha, then sir, how would you like to pay?"

Zhu Zhengming asked with a smile.

Hearing this, Chen Yang moved his gaze away from the Spirit Stone and looked at Zhu Zhengming.

"Manager Zhu, I don’t have that much cash on me, but I do have some elixirs. Can your auction house accept them, with a lower amount?"

More than 1.6 billion, such a large amount, is not a small asset even for Chen Yang.

He had only planned to come and have a look today, without any plan to buy, so he hadn’t prepared funds in advance, naturally unable to bring it out.

However, he had a plan; he had some elixirs that could be sold for money, gathering it together to get 1.6 billion shouldn’t be a problem.

"Elixirs for money? That’s indeed possible, but the process might be a bit cumbersome, requiring an elixir appraiser to estimate the price on-site." Zhu Zhengming smiled.

"A bit cumbersome is fine, as long as it can be reduced."

Chen Yang said.

"Alright, then please wait a moment, sir, I’ll immediately find an elixir appraiser."

At the auction house, it’s quite normal to use items to pay back money, so Zhu Zhengming didn’t react much.

Once confirmed that Chen Yang wanted to use items for money, he went out to find someone.

After about one or two minutes, Zhu Zhengming returned with an elderly gentleman around sixty or seventy years old.

"Old Tang, this is the gentleman who wants to exchange elixirs." As soon as he entered, Zhu Zhengming introduced them.

"Sir, Old Tang is our auction’s professional elixir appraiser, he’ll surely give you a fair price." Zhu Zhengming said to Chen Yang.

"Okay."

Chen Yang nodded.

"Sir, if you have any elixirs to exchange, please take them out, I’ll have a look." Old Tang gently stroked his white beard, looking composed.

He seemed very confident, clearly possessing high expertise in the field of elixir appraisal.

"Okay." Chen Yang nodded again, then directly pulled out a handful of Body Refining Pills from his pocket.

These Body Refining Pills were newly made by Chen Yang based on the Medicine King’s Scripture, helpful even for his Qi Cultivation Realm.

If counted from Tiger Dragon Pill, this should be considered the fifth generation of body-enhancing elixir.

The Medicine King’s Scripture did not introduce the name of these elixirs, just in the body refining elixir section.

So Chen Yang simply gave it a very modern, somewhat quirky name.

Body Refining Pill - Fourth Generation.

Because Tiger Dragon Pill has a different name, it doesn’t count within each generation.

As soon as Chen Yang took out the elixirs, the room was immediately filled with a very pure herbal fragrance.

Old Tang was quite relaxed a second ago, but upon smelling the fragrance, his expression became serious.

He took two steps forward and began identifying the elixirs.

The whole process took about two or three minutes.

In those brief two to three minutes, Old Tang’s demeanor changed dramatically.

From initial ease to astonishment!

"What remarkable elixirs! Elixirs of excellence for purifying marrow! A notch above the ones first auctioned today!" Old Tang exclaimed in astonishment.

Chen Yang wasn’t surprised at Old Tang’s reaction.

Those elixirs he fed to Fortune Eagle Brother as if they were beans were sold for nearly a billion each; surely these elixirs were a notch higher.

No doubt.

"So, what price can your auction offer?" Chen Yang asked with a slight smile.

"Indeed, Old Tang, could you give us an estimate?" Zhu Zhengming, now intrigued, also asked.

Being a manager here for quite some time, this was the first time he’d seen Old Tang react so significantly.

"The elixirs are excellent! And very precious, I see there are about eighteen pills!" Old Tang pondered slightly, saying, "How about this, we don’t need to do a comprehensive assessment; these elixirs could be worth 400 million, how about that?"

million, Zhu Mingzheng upon hearing this was greatly astonished.

Never seen elixirs able to bid such a high price.

If they auctioned them, they would need to achieve at least 600 million for it to be profitable. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

After all, auctions also entail costs.

If Chen Yang auctioned them, their institution would also charge a commission.

And for Chen Yang, this 400 million price was within his estimation.

As mentioned before, although Body Refining Pills are good, their demand scope is limited, not everyone can use them.

This condition alone knocked quite a bit off the price of Body Refining Pills.

"Sir, what do you think? 400 million is already quite high, considering the demand for these elixirs is limited; you also need to leave our auction some profit margin." Seeing Chen Yang silent, Old Tang spoke again.

"Alright, let’s go with your offer, 400 million."

Chen Yang nodded in agreement.

"Alright, Xiao Zhu, collect these elixirs, we’ll accept them." Old Tang directly stated.

"Okay."

Zhu Zhengming said nothing more, seeing Old Tang agreeing, he promptly collected the eighteen Body Refining Pills.
