Everyone could see that Xiaoyao Polong was trying to kiss Taishi Dan’s a**. The Taishi Clan was one of the strongest clans in the southern region, even stronger than the Pleasure Valley.

Taishi Dan nodded and sat back down, waiting for the auction to start.

Xiaoyao Polong signaled to Meiqi with his eyes and ordered one of his men to send a jug of good wine to Taishi Dan. Taishi Dan studied the man’s expression and nodded, satisfied.

Xiaoyao Polong and Taishi Dan grinned at each other as if they had become friends already.

Meiqi put on her clothes while an old man brought a box as big as a human head onto the stage. Meiqi opened the box, and in it was a dark purple pearl that was as big as an apple. The pearl shone dimly with purple light.

The crowd could feel the Cursed Energy as soon as the box was opened. It was as if ghosts were suddenly roaming among them.

“Is that the Cursed Pearl? Its energy is seeping out and around all of us. I can feel it even when I’m this far away. What would happen if the pearl broke?”

“If I can get my hands on it and get my clan to help me, I can merge this Cursed Energy with my cultivation and become stronger!”

The crowd started to shift; they all had their eyes on the pearl.

Even though the Cursed Energy is weaker than the Evil Energy, it should be enough to enhance the Formation-Breaking Spear, Ye Mo thought as he stared at the pearl.

Meiqi watched the reactions from the crowd and grinned. She wrote the price on a piece of white paper and threw it into the box.

“I’ve written the price on the paper, it’s already sealed in the box, and we won’t be able to fake it,” Xiaoyao Meiqi said. “Each audience only has one chance to place your bet with Fortifying Pills. The price that is the closest to the number on the paper will get both the Cursed Pearl and a night with me.”

After Meiqi finished her sentence, the girls that were tending to each table took out pieces of white paper and black pens. The buyers thought for a while and wrote their prices down.

They folded their papers and handed them to the girls that were tending to them.

The girl that was servicing Ye Mo hated him because Ye Mo did not let her service him. He even told her to take away the fruits. Most of the people that she had tended to had given her tips, but Ye Mo didn’t.

The man that she was servicing was weird. He brought a person dressed in a black robe and didn’t even drink any alcohol.

When she noticed the price that Ye Mo had written down, she looked at him with disdain and thought, How did the poor brat manage to sneak into the second floor?

“Now that everyone has written down their price, let’s start with the bid. We’ll begin with table number one,” Meiqi said. “Please tell us how much you think the pearl is worth and how much you think I’m worth.”

The man on the first table was from a clan near the Pleasure Valley.

“30,000 Fortifying Pills,” the man shouted with a smug expression as he believed the price was very high.

“30,000 for the Cursed Pearl? Meiqi alone is already worth more than that!” the man at the second table snorted.

“I’ll offer 50,000!” the girl that was tending to the second table opened the paper and shouted.

The price went higher as the bids continued. Some had even offered higher than 100,000.

“That much money for a girl? It’s not even worth it,” Ye Mo shook his head and said as he believed the men who shouted prices higher than 100,000 were there for just for Meiqi and not the pearl.

“Of course it is,” the girl that was tending to Ye Mo said while blushing. “Meiqi is one of the best in bed.”

Ye Mo could only shake his head and wait for his turn.

Tie Nan and Mu Hua’s offers were in the middle. One had offered 70,000 while the other offered 75,000. They believed that the prices they had written were the closest to the price that Meiqi had written.

When it was Taishi Dan’s turn, Taishi Dan looked at the crowd with a smug face.

The girl that was tending to Taishi Dan opened his paper and was shocked at the amount on it.

“521 Fortifying Pills!” the girl shouted in awe.

The crowd exploded into murmurs in response to the amount offered by Taishi Dan as they couldn’t believe that Taishi Dan would write such a low amount.

There was no way that the Cursed Pearl would be worth that little.

“The number represents the love I have for Meiqi,” Taishi Dan stood up and said.

Some of the buyers suddenly understood that Xiaoyao Polong had already told Taishi Dan the price that Meiqi had written down.

Xiaoyao Polong had written down a price that was so low that no one would even have thought of it.

It was a perfect play by both parties. Xiaoyao Polong had no use for the Cursed Pearl. The only intention he had was to get the Taishi Clan on their side.

“What a romantic!” Xiaoyao Polong stood up and clapped. “Looks like you’ll have a wonderful night today.”

“Thank you,” Taishi Dan said and bowed.

“Let us see the price then.” Xiaoyao Polong ordered Meiqi to show the price they’d written as he believed that there was no need to continue any further.

Meiqi nodded and opened the box. She took out the paper and showed the number on it.

“One.” That was the number written on the paper.

“The Cursed Pearl is of no use to the Pleasure Valley. That’s why it’s only worth one pill to us,” Xiaoyao Polong explained.

Of course, no one could believe the bullsh*t that Xiaoyao Polong had just said, but rules were still rules, and Taishi Dan was the one who won the pearl and the night with Meiqi.

“I’ll be gentle tonight, Meiqi,” Taishi Dan said and laughed as soon as he let out a breath of relief when he saw the paper.

Just at that moment, the girl that was tending Ye Mo fell to the ground shaking.

“One pearl!” she shouted.

“What’s wrong?” Meiqi frowned at the girl.

“Looks like my price is closer than what Taishi Dan has offered,” Ye Mo stood up and said.

He took the paper from the girl and opened it for everyone to see.

A huge zero was written on it.

“He got the pearl without spending even a dime!” Cai Ling exclaimed. The man named Ye Mo had become more mysterious than he already was in her eyes.
