Xiao Ya and Lady Yao were shocked again as the Elixir Pills dissolved in her mouth. Xiao Ya recalled Lady Yao's words, and her pretty face instantly turned pale like snow. In panic, she knelt down, "Lady Yao, save me."
While speaking, the medicinal effect had already started taking effect.
In Xiao Ya's abdomen, a warm current seeped into the meridians, like the dry land meeting sweet rain, nourishing her Dark Power that had been stagnant for many years; the Dark Power flowed incessantly, overflowing from her Dantian.
In her mind, it felt like heaven and earth were shattering, waves of sharp sensations passed in an instant, and copious hot sweat burst from her forehead.
The face that was pleading for help was swiftly replaced by ecstasy.
"Thank you, guest, I've broken through," Xiao Ya's face flushed red, her voice trembling with joy.
Lady Yao and Dark Jade were both stunned, isn't this too fast?
Lady Yao checked Xiao Ya's meridians again, found nothing unusual, instead, they were stronger than before, and her cultivation had forcefully broken through from Small Success of Jade Dark to Yu Xuan Great Success.
"About this True Essence Pill, how many do you have in total? On behalf of the nightclub, we will buy three at the price of 3,200 Second-order Profound Pills, and the remaining four will be auctioned by the nightclub. We will take a 10% commission fee regardless of the price, high or low, the nightclub won't charge any extra fees," Lady Yao drastically changed her tune, immediately setting up a seasoned business persona.
True Dark Pill is only useful to Jade Xuan Practitioners; the price is not high, 3,200 Profound Pills translated to Gold Coins is merely 60,000 Gold Coins, converted to Third-stage Profound Pills, which is thirty pills.
Establishing a relationship with a nightclub like this is of significance to Yue Jinghua, far surpassing the value of tens of thousands of Gold Coins.
"Deal," Yue Jinghua agreed briskly, Xie Yu at the side was also grinning, apparently, he gained the most this time, directly receiving a True Dark Pill for no charge.
After handing over three True Dark Pills to Lady Yao, Xiao Ya delivered a card.
"This is a One-star Dan Xuan Card, the minimum opening deposit is 1,000 Profound Pills, once the number of Profound Pills reaches 10,000, it can be promoted to two-stars. The guest's name needs to be engraved, may I ask for the guest's given name?" To a real Dark Practitioner, Gold Coins are nothing but mundane objects, the Dan Xuan Card is the real symbol of identity.
"Yue Xiaoqi," Yue Jinghua casually gave the name.
After engraving the name, the card was handed over to Yue Jinghua.
Having received help from Yue Jinghua, Xiao Ya became much more enthusiastic after her promotion, even verbal explanations increased, "Ahead is the auction hall, One-star guests sit in the sixth row, here are the auction catalog and the bidding paddle for this auction, please keep them safe, Miss Yue and Young Master Xie."
Since entering the nightclub, Yue Jinghua had been underground, looking up only to see ceilings decorated gloriously with Luminous Pearls; however, upon entering the auction hall, the layout of the nightclub dramatically changed.
The nightclub in Polo City is arranged like a small Roman Beast Fighting Arena, with seats for One-star, two-star, three-star up to six-star guests arranged in a spiral staircase fashion from bottom to top.
From the second layer upwards, there are a few private boxes specially designed for the Royal Family, today's auction's scale is limited, and those boxes are empty, the seats at the front for four-star, five-star guests are also just three to four people.
In the center of the auction house is a ring-like platform, above the platform is a thin piece of glazed stone, through which one can see the sky outside; at this moment, as the sun sets, the entire piece of glazed stone reflects a fiery red sunset.
This slice of sunset casts a red glow over the entire auction hall.
All who came to participate in the auction (Yue Jinghua estimated there were about three to four hundred people), each person was wearing the nightclub's mask, and one could only vaguely distinguish between the genders, while age and appearance were indiscernible.
"That guy with purple eyes is a three-star guest? My guess was right, he really isn't a normal person, is he a mercenary, or perhaps he's a prodigal from some family; hmm, the latter seems more probable," Xie Yu shrugged, his face showing a mix of jealousy and admiration. He himself is a three-star guest, holding a Dan Xuan Card with up to 100,000 Profound Pills, not expecting the young man who seems to be new in the nightclub, already holding a "100,000 Profound Pills" Dan Xuan Card.
The star level of the Dan Xuan Card is related to the number and quality of Profound Pills held, some large families have accumulated high-level Profound Pills over the years, if exchanged for Second-order Profound Pills, the amount is indeed astonishing. Another possibility, the cardholder is a mercenary specializing in hunting Dark Beasts.
