With three supreme masters, they were invincible upon descending the mountain.

Prices are still soaring.

Even with the starting price being incredibly high, no one showed any sign of stopping.

The scene was lively and exciting.

A Foundation Establishment stage is extremely important for a family.

It can be said that with one more Foundation Establishment stage, a family that was originally on par can be instantly surpassed!

This is the effect of the Foundation Establishment Pill. A Foundation Establishment martial artist is equivalent to more than half a family. The advantages and disadvantages are naturally not as simple as one plus one equals two.

Su Mei originally wanted to participate in the auction, but when she turned her head and saw Wang Shiyu calmly watching everything, a hint of suspicion flashed in her eyes.

Based on her understanding of Wang Shiyu, she knew that in this situation, it was impossible for the other party to miss out.

She suddenly remembered what Ye Yaocheng had said before, that they could refine a youth-preserving pill.

A guess began to form in her mind.

"Su Mei," Lin Qingxue asked softly, "Aren't you bidding?"

Su Mei hesitated for a moment.

"Never mind," she shook her head. "I spent a bit too much money today."

Lin Qingxue gave her a deep look.

One hundred thousand?

For Su Mei, it was just pocket money.

But when she realized that the other party was from the Su family in the provincial capital, she understood.

Without asking any more questions, Lin Qingxue stood up.

Her voice was cool and clear, yet it carried throughout the entire auction hall: "Two billion."

These words shocked everyone present!

Everyone turned to look, and when they saw it was Lin Qingxue, those who knew her fell silent.

"Who's that woman?" some strangers began to complain. "Even if you're rich, you can't be this rude!"

"Adding hundreds of millions at a time, how are others supposed to compete?"

"Shh-"

Someone nearby quickly pulled him aside: "Keep your voice down!"

The man lowered his voice: "That's Lin Qingxue!"

"The apple of the Lin family's eye!"

"It is said that the Lin family patriarch treated her like a treasure, so much so that he was afraid she would melt if he kept her in his mouth."

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent.

The Lin family is a behemoth in Linjiang.

Although the Lin family is a first-class family like the Ji and Yang families, it can be said that even if the Ji and Yang families were combined, they would not be as strong as the Lin family!

On stage, Ya Fei was also stunned for a moment, but she quickly recovered.

"Miss Lin offered two billion."

She surveyed the room: "Is anyone else bidding higher?"

This time, everyone remained silent; no one dared to raise the price.

"Two billion once."

"twice."

"three times."

The gavel fell: "Congratulations, Miss Lin, on winning the first Foundation Establishment Pill!"

Lin Qingxue smiled shyly and bowed slightly to the surroundings: "Qingxue thanks everyone. I'll accept this pill."

His tone was gentle, but everyone understood the weight of his words.

Everyone was angry but dared not speak out.

Even those who disagreed only frowned and didn't say anything more.

There's no way around it; the Lin family is simply an exceptionally powerful force in Linjiang.

"Now, let's show you the second Foundation Building Pill."

Ya Fei's voice rang out again.

The second one.

The scene was still incredibly lively.

The price quickly reached 1.5 billion and is still climbing.

Yang Xiao grew anxious and suddenly stood up: "Everyone!"

He looked around and said, "I, Yang, have taken a liking to this pill. I wonder if any of you would be willing to part with it?"

As soon as he said this, snickers erupted from the audience.

Of those who can come here, only a few are truly powerful; even the Yang family is no exception!

A middle-aged man with a face full of scars stood up. "The Yang family? What are they?"

He pointed at Yang Xiao and yelled, "Get out of my way if you don't have money!"

Yang Xiao's face flushed red. He stared coldly at the middle-aged man with a face full of scars. "Who are you? Aren't you afraid of the Yang family's revenge?"

"revenge?"

The scarred man spat, his scars grotesque under the light: "I'm Black Owl, one of the four hall masters of the Black Dragon Society!"

He stared at Yang Xiao: "If you've got the guts, come find me! My Black Dragon Society is happy to oblige!"

Yang Xiao was immediately put on the defensive.

He opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything, so he could only sit back down in his seat helplessly.

The Black Dragon Society is now one of the two major underground forces in Linjiang.

It is said that this Black Owl has already reached the peak of Qi Refining.

If the Yang family really goes looking for trouble, they will only be wasting their time and effort.

Although the Yang family is a first-class family, this "first-class" status is built on a foundation of wealth.

If we're really comparing strength, he's not stronger than the Black Dragon Society.

Everyone just watched quietly.

Neither the Black Dragon Society nor the Yang family are people they can afford to offend.

Yang Xiao took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart.

There are still four pills on the field.

He believed... he was sure he could get one!

The auction for the Foundation Building Pill did not stop because of these incidents; it continued in full swing.

Soon, the first five pills were sold for over two billion.

Yang Xiao could only watch helplessly, his palms sweating profusely.

"Everyone."

On the stage, Ya Fei's voice rang out again: "This Foundation Establishment Pill is the last one in this auction, and also the last item in this auction."

She smiled and said, "Please bid in an orderly manner."

Upon hearing this, the eyes of those members of the powerful families who hadn't managed to capture anything immediately lit up with excitement!

The last one!

If you don't grab them now, they'll be gone!

"Five hundred million!"

"Six hundred million!"

"Eight hundred million!"

Prices skyrocketed instantly!

In just one minute, it broke the billion mark!

"Two billion!"

Just then, Yang Xiao suddenly stood up!

His eyes were bloodshot as he roared, "I'll offer two billion!"

The sound resounded throughout the entire venue!

He looked around: "Is there anyone else offering a higher bid? Tell me?!"

He practically roared, "Who else?!"

This scene caused many people who wanted to raise the price to stop.

No matter how bad the Yang family is, they are still a first-rate family.

It's not worth it to offend them so badly.

Many people had no choice but to give up.

Seeing this, Yang Xiao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He slumped into his chair, a victorious smile on his face.

"Two billion once."

Ya Fei began the countdown: "Twice."

She raised the gavel: "Two billion..."

"Wait a minute."

Before the words were finished, a voice suddenly rang out.

Everyone turned their heads in unison to look at the source of the sound.

To their surprise, they discovered that this person was Ye Yaocheng.

He slowly stood up, looked at Ya Fei on the stage, and said calmly, "I bid... 2.1 billion."

He paused, then looked at Yang Xiao: "What? No one's bidding for 2.1 billion?"

"Then this Foundation Establishment Pill... is mine."

The air froze, and everyone was stunned.

Yang Xiao's smile froze instantly!

He suddenly stood up!

"presumptuous!"

He stared at Ye Yaocheng, his eyes practically spitting fire: "You dare, you brat!"

He gritted his teeth, his voice filled with murderous intent: "I'll offer 2.2 billion!"

Ye Yaocheng smiled, gently raised his hand, and said calmly, "Twenty-three billion."

"Two billion four billion!" Yang Xiao roared.

"Two billion." Ye Yaocheng remained relaxed.

"Twenty-six billion!" Yang Xiao's voice began to tremble.

"Two billion."

"Two billion eight billion!" Yang Xiao's forehead broke out in a cold sweat.

"Two billion." Ye Yaocheng picked up his teacup, took a sip, and remained relaxed.

"Three...three billion!"

Yang Xiao gritted his teeth and shouted out this number; this was the limit of what he could mobilize!

"Kid, I've got your eye on this. Go ahead and try again if you dare!"

"No! I really can't afford three billion. Congratulations, Young Master Yang, you've won."

After Ye Yaocheng finished speaking, he calmly sat down, as if nothing had happened.

Yang Xiao's face turned deathly pale instantly!

He opened his mouth.

At that moment, even if he was slow to realize it, he knew he had been tricked.

Ya Fei's voice rang out: "Thirty billion once!"

"twice."

"three times!"

The gavel came down: "Deal!"

"Congratulations, Mr. Yang, on winning the bid for the last Foundation Establishment Pill!"

The entire room fell silent, everyone staring at Ye Yaocheng with complex expressions.

Ye Yaocheng simply smiled faintly at this, his gaze fixed on Yang Xiao in the distance.

A hint of amusement flashed deep in his eyes.

If it weren't for the fact that he had to consider other people's attitudes, he would have had to spend a few hundred million more to ease the situation, since 3 billion seemed to be the maximum.
