Ye Liu glanced at Xiao Yi and asked, "How about it, Brother Xiao Yi, are you interested in this item?"
Xiao Yi shook his head, "No, I’m looking forward to what comes later."
"Oh?" Ye Liu smiled and said, "The auction has been going on for a while, but I’ve never seen Brother Xiao Yi bid on anything."
"The Low-level Heavenly Rank Martial Techniques on offer now don’t catch my eye."
"It seems that Brother Xiao Yi has quite a few treasures on him."
"I’m really afraid I won’t be able to resist robbing you, Brother Xiao Yi."
"Haha," Xiao Yi laughed and said, "A mere Earth Extreme Sixth Layer thinking of taking my things?"
Indeed, Ye Liu had the cultivation of the Earth Extreme Sixth Layer.
This fact had been perceived by Xiao Yi long ago.
Ye Liu was around the same age as himself and possessing such cultivation was truly impressive.
Most importantly, throughout the auction, he had been chatting casually with him.
He found this person to be very forthright and likely someone worth making a deep connection with.
"Haha," Ye Liu also laughed and said, "Brother Xiao Yi is merely at the Earth Extreme Fifth Layer, perhaps I could easily take them."
"You could try," Xiao Yi shrugged and laughed, "If I’m not mistaken, Brother Ye also has quite a few treasures on him."
"I’d like to see who would rob whom."
The guests below were fiercely contending for the Low-level Heavenly Rank Martial Technique called Wind Extreme Palm.
Here in the VIP seats, however, there was a round of cheerful and lively conversation.
It wasn’t long before the Wind Extreme Palm was taken by someone from the Lin Family at a high price.
Speaking of the Lin Family, besides being the foremost family in Thousand Wind City, their family’s influence was one of the strongest in the entire Thousand Wind Kingdom.
Even in the whole Wind Saint Territory, they were somewhat renowned.
The family had many within the Earth Extreme Realm, indicating their power was not weak.
It was only to be expected that they could secure this Low-level Heavenly Technique.
Several more rounds of bidding passed.
"Next up, we have the 21st auction item," the auctioneer announced loudly.
A crystal bottle appeared on the auction stage.
The bottle, clear and luminous, contained a green object within it.
Wreaths of green aura continuously circled around it.
Yet, not a hint of its aura leaked from the bottle.
"A fine item," the guests immediately thought.
Just the bottle alone was worth no less than ten million taels.
One could imagine the rarity of the item it contained.
The auctioneer smiled and announced loudly, "This is a Wind Evil Seed."
"What?" The guests widened their eyes in shock.
However, after a brief moment, all the guests shook their heads, with not a single bid made.
From the VIP seats above, Ye Liu shook his head, "Although Wind Evil is a rare object in this world, it’s a pity that not just anyone can control it."
"Moreover, this is but a seed."
"Not to mention, where would one obtain the countless Wind Attribute powers required to cultivate this seed into a true Wind Evil."
"Even if one somehow manages to cultivate it, no one would be able to harness it."
"In short, as famous as it might be, this thing is like a chicken rib, totally useless."
Xiao Yi nodded in agreement.
Wind Evil is the strongest of the winds.
Its level is equivalent to the most potent flames in the world.
Even if one could cultivate the seed into a true Wind Evil, it would only result in an extremely dangerous entity.
If one tried to control it by force, it could very well backfire disastrously.
Below, on the auction stage, the auctioneer frowned and said, "The starting price for this Wind Evil Seed is three hundred million taels."
"Is there anyone willing to bid? If not, it will simply pass unsold."
There was a moment of silence among the guests.
Suddenly, a voice rang out, "Three hundred million taels."
"This Wind Evil Seed, though as useless as a chicken rib, is still a rare and precious item."
"My Lin Family can certainly spare these few hundred million taels, it will be acquired for our collection."
