Let me Touch your Tail

Chapter 65

Nangong Yin watched as Yan Zhao disappeared into the dense forest, her figure vanishing from sight. When Nangong arrived at the grand hall of the Medicine God Sect, the auction was in full swing. The first Suiyang Pill had just been sold to an elder from a second-rate sect for an astronomical price of 30 million spirit stones.

It was said that the sect's leader had recently suffered severe injuries and was on the brink of death, desperately in need of the pill. The sect's elder had personally come to the auction, bringing with him all of their accumulated wealth, just to secure the Suiyang Pill. Since two Suiyang Pills were being auctioned, those in the know held back, avoiding driving the price higher.

With the first pill sold, all attention now shifted to the second one. When the Medicine God's son brought out the pill box, all eyes immediately focused on it. The fragrance of the pill seeped from the cracks of the jade box, drifting into the air like the warmth of the early morning sun, bathing everyone present.

Some cultivators, stuck at bottlenecks in their cultivation for a long time, felt their spiritual energy stir just by inhaling the scent. The stagnant flow of energy in their meridians began to loosen, a testament to the pill's extraordinary effects. The fervor in the crowd's eyes intensified as they prepared to bid for the pill at all costs.

Elder Wu took the box from the Medicine God's son, opened it to reveal the dark golden pill resting on silk, and walked halfway around the platform to ensure everyone could see it clearly.

"For the final auction of the day, the Suiyang Pill. Starting bid: 10,000 spirit stones. Let the bidding begin!" Elder Wu announced loudly.

Almost immediately, someone shouted, "100,000!"

"500,000!"

"Two million!"

The bidding quickly escalated, soon reaching 25 million, nearing the price of the first pill. Just then, a soft chuckle echoed from the crowd: "50 million."

The voice was low and slightly hoarse, yet it was clear to everyone in the hall. The bid had doubled the current price, and for a moment, a hush fell over the hall. Everyone turned to locate the source of the voice, and soon their gazes landed on a shadowy figure.

The figure, a woman, sat in an inconspicuous spot. Her face was sharp and stern, her presence cold and imposing. At first glance, no one noticed anything unusual, but after the brief silence, someone let out a shocked cry: "Cang Li Demon Lord!"

It was only then that the crowd noticed the woman's left sleeve was fluttering in the wind, empty. A black robe, a single arm, and the ability to move without being detected even by the Medicine God Sect's protective array—there was only one person in the world with such abilities.

The Demon Lord, Nangong Yin.

Just moments ago, Nangong had bid 50 million for the Suiyang Pill. The moment she made her presence known, the crowd's tension skyrocketed. Tu Shan Yu, who had been sitting quietly, suddenly stood up, fury blazing in his eyes. "Nangong Yin, was it your demon clan that abducted my cousin?!"

Elder Wu's expression grew serious as he realized it was indeed Nangong Yin herself.

Nangong Yin's presence made it far more likely that the demon clan was responsible for Bai Jin's disappearance. It was no wonder Tu Shan Yu was so agitated. However, Nangong Yin barely lifted her eyelids in response, her tone indifferent and disdainful. "I have no interest in your fox clan."

Her contemptuous arrogance was obvious, and Tu Shan Yu's face darkened. "Are you denying it?"

Nangong Yin, uninterested, didn't bother to respond. Tu Shan Yu misinterpreted her silence and coldly asked, "Are you trying to provoke a conflict between the demon and fox clans, to declare war on us?"
