Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1571: Chapter 631: Price Gouging in the Bidding

Ye Lingyue wanted to say something.

But at that moment, she suddenly felt a few sharp auras approaching from all directions.

She couldn’t help but become alert.

”Captain, don’t act rashly. This is the Exotic Treasures Pavilion, where many experts are hidden. Anyone who causes trouble here will be immediately expelled and permanently banned from entering.”

Tang Tiansong realized that Ye Lingyue actually knew the female war prisoner and seemed to have a deep relationship with her.

He was afraid that Ye Lingyue might act recklessly, so he quickly advised her.

Ye Lingyue listened, looked again at Ye Liuyun, who kept her head down and remained silent, and repressed the anger in her heart, stepping aside.

Seeing this, Xi Jiuye also stood beside Third Young Master Jin.

The surrounding sharp auras immediately disappeared.

The elder selling the war prisoners breathed a sigh of relief.

This batch of war prisoners was acquired by chance and seemed quite in demand; he had to find a way to sell them at a good price.

”Everyone, I am Li Songping, the captain representing Hu Yuan City. We discovered this batch of war prisoners a few days ago while clearing a small demon tribe, totaling thirty people. They are all Reincarnation Realm Martial Artists around the Fifth Rank, with some of them of good aptitude and appearance. They are sold in groups of ten, with a starting price of fifty thousand merit points.”

After saying this, Captain Li pushed out the war prisoners under his command.

Among them, especially a few good-looking female prisoners, elicited a round of applause as soon as they appeared.

Fifty thousand merit points sounded like a significant amount, but in fact, a bottle of elixir from the Tang family could be sold for twenty thousand merit points.

Unexpectedly, the lives of ten Reincarnation Realm Martial Artists were not worth as much as three bottles of elixir.

In fact, the prices of different war prisoners vary.

In the Ancient Nine Provinces, Reincarnation Realm Martial Artists are as common as cattle, so their value is low.

If they were small Divine Power Realm Martial Artists, the starting price from Basic, Perfection to Peak would be one hundred thousand, two hundred thousand, and five hundred thousand respectively.

Sometimes, there are also Great Divine Power Realm war prisoners, whose value is even more astonishing.

Among the first ten prisoners brought out was Ye Liuyun.

Without thinking, Ye Lingyue placed a bid.

”Sixty thousand.”

”Seventy thousand.”

A few team leaders from the Fourth-tier Representative Teams also placed bids.

Ten Reincarnation Realm Martial Artists, if lucky enough, might be trained into a small Divine Power Realm Martial Artist, making it a worthwhile investment.

”Seventy-one thousand.”

”Seventy-five thousand.”

”Eighty thousand.”

”One hundred thousand!”

Third Young Master Jin casually announced a figure, then gave Ye Lingyue a taunting glance after quoting.

This ugly woman earlier in Xuanwu City had framed him to spend a night with Hong Yulang.

Thinking about it sometimes, Third Young Master Jin still felt disgusted.

Moreover, these female war prisoners looked really nice, a few of them seemed to be virgins; buying them would be fun.

When one hundred thousand merit points were announced, all the representative teams interested in buying war prisoners fell silent.

They weren’t like the Jin Family, wealthy enough to throw away tens of thousands of merit points without a second thought.

Seeing the lewd expression on Third Young Master Jin’s face made Guangzi feel nauseous.

Without thinking, he placed a bid.

”One hundred and ten thousand merit points.”

”Guangzi, don’t be impulsive; our merit points aren’t much.”

Qin Xiaochuan was anxious to see this and pulled Guangzi.

The entire Huangquan City had only about thirteen thousand points in total.

Buying ten prisoners would cost tens of thousands, not to mention whether they would be downgraded. How could the Huangquan Team stand in Senluo Wanxiang City afterward?

”If not buying, should we just watch those women fall into the firepit? Don’t tell me you can’t see what Third Young Master Jin is planning. This guy is clearly lust-driven; he’s going to ruin those poor girls.”

Guangzi seethed with anger.

He regretted it; had he known the Medical Essence Divine Needle couldn’t kill Third Young Master Jin, he should have used that Leak Essence Fragrance from his sister on him to make sure he’d never touch a woman again.

”One hundred and fifty thousand merit points.”

Third Young Master Jin could clearly see the Huangquan Team’s predicament.

Joking, trying to compete with him in wealth?

Without thinking, as someone from the Jin Family, just the earnings from Xi Jiuye alone meant the Jin team’s merit points were in the tens of thousands, enough to upgrade to a Second-tier Team soon.

Ye Lingyue’s face darkened; she only had over thirteen thousand merit points.

She glanced at Tang Tiansong beside her.

The latter understood Ye Lingyue’s meaning.

”Captain, I have some merit points in my card; if you don’t mind, you can use them.”

Tang Tiansong was straightforward.

He could see that Ye Lingyue valued the female war prisoner highly.

After all, his Jiu Provinces Card was originally meant to be handed over to Ye Lingyue.

Tang Tiansong’s card still had over ten thousand merit points.

Altogether, it was enough for the one hundred and fifty thousand merit points.

But what worried Ye Lingyue was that this meant her merit points would be gone all at once.

Luckily, Senluo Wanxiang City provided a one-month buffer period; as long as she could earn enough merit points within this month, the Huangquan Team could maintain its status as a Fourth-tier Representative Team and stay in Senluo Wanxiang City.

Looks like she’ll have to rely on refining elixirs.

Ye Lingyue exhaled in relief.

”One hundred fifty-one thousand.”

Third Young Master Jin rolled his eyes.

Ha, someone dared to compete with him?

”Sixty...”

”Third Young Master.”

Xi Jiuye unexpectedly interjected, giving Third Young Master Jin a cold glance.

Third Young Master Jin shivered, and the sixty thousand he was about to announce retreated after reaching his lips.

He almost forgot, nominally he was the team leader, but virtually all the merit points were earned by Xi Jiuye.

Clearly, the Huangquan Team is already scraping together all their resources for merit points; no matter how much more, they couldn’t afford it.

Xi Jiuye calmly looked at Ye Lingyue.

”Do you really want this batch of war prisoners? If you really want them, you should beg me. Just beg me once, and I’ll let you have them.”

Beg him?

Ye Lingyue was stunned.

Looking again at Xi Jiuye, unsure of his true intentions.

Xi Jiuye himself didn’t understand his own mind.

Watching Ye Lingyue struggling over a few thousand merit points, even opening her mouth to Tang Tiansong, she resembled that stubborn Night Lingyue from the past.

Back then, when being sliced on the executioner’s platform, that woman was just as stubborn.

Clearly at the end of her rope, why couldn’t she give in just once?

He just wanted to see her pleading, to see her vulnerable side, resting in Di Shen’s embrace, unknowingly revealing the tender side of a woman.
