Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort

Chapter 360: Chapter 360: The Cunning Wanxiang Building (Part 9)

It seemed that this high-grade top-grade elixir was about to be passed over.

”These people really don’t recognize quality. If they don’t want it, I do!” Wei Guanguan immediately spoke up for Mu Qingge.

Just as Wei Guanguan was about to raise her hand to bid, Mu Qingge spoke up, ”Don’t rush.”

She didn’t believe that Old Man Dan gave her an invitation just to embarrass her.

At this moment, downstairs, the auctioneer spoke again, ”Is everyone here skeptical about the effects of this elixir?” He seemed to have anticipated this situation, so there was not a trace of embarrassment on his face.

The crowd was abuzz with discussion, and the auctioneer suddenly chuckled, ”I wonder if the head of the Ge Family is present today.”

”The head of the Ge Family has an only son who was severely injured in a desperate fight not long ago and is now at death’s door,” Lian’er explained. Her few words were enough for the three people present to understand clearly.

It turned out that Old Man Dan was counting on this tactic.

Firstly, to test whether the elixir’s effect was as miraculous as Mu Qingge claimed. Secondly, to help Wanxiang Building earn a significant profit.

Downstairs, the voice of the Ge Family’s head slowly drifted over, ”What? Does your establishment plan to use my son for testing the medicine?”

The auctioneer chuckled, not embarrassed in the least, and candidly said, ”Our building has heard that the young master of the Ge Family was gravely injured and is now barely clinging to life. Your purpose in attending this auction is to find a life-saving remedy, correct? I can assure the head of the Ge Family that the only elixir with life-saving effects in this auction is this Nine Lives Reversal Pill in my hand. Why not give it a try, treating a dead horse as if it’s alive? A mere million taels of gold for saving your son’s life is certainly a worthwhile deal!”

The head of the Ge Family’s brow twitched at the auctioneer’s words, and he fell silent.

He seemed to be deliberating.

After a moment, he finally spoke again, ”What if it’s ineffective? What will your building do? And what about my son’s life?”

Mu Qingge was also curious about how Wanxiang Building would answer this question.

The auctioneer seemed prepared, and as soon as the head of the Ge Family finished speaking, he responded cheerfully, ”If it’s ineffective, the million gold will be immediately refunded. Moreover, I will tell the head of the Ge Family that the owner of this elixir is present at this auction. If the elixir is ineffective and worsens the condition of the young master of the Ge Family, I believe the owner of the elixir should come forward and provide an explanation.” With that, he discreetly glanced in the direction of the private room where Mu Qingge was.

”Outrageous! He’s trying to drag Mu Ge into this!” Wei Qi fiercely slammed the arm of his chair, glaring with hostility at Lian’er, who seemed innocent.

”Your Wanxiang Building is truly shameless!” Wei Guanguan glared at Lian’er, almost ready to draw her sword and take her life.

However, Mu Qingge, after the auctioneer finished speaking, merely let a cold glint flash in her eyes and curled her lips in a playful, mocking smile.

She was sure that this follow-up move was not from Dan Chenzi, but from another person.

And that person, during the previous incident with Master Zhu, had earned her admiration for his intelligence.

”It doesn’t matter. True gold fears no fire.” Mu Qingge’s indifferent words temporarily quelled the anger of the Wei siblings. However, when they looked at Lian’er once more, the friendliness had vanished.

Meanwhile, downstairs, the head of the Ge Family had already made his decision.

He sent someone to fetch his son from the mansion, apparently intending to test the medicine in public. Whether he feared Wanxiang Building denying responsibility, or Mu Qingge as the owner of the elixir running away, was unknown.

The crowd awaited eagerly as the Ge Family servants quickly carried in a stretcher bearing a pallid, weak man, barely clinging to life.

As soon as the man appeared, the head of the Ge Family rushed over nervously, making his identity unmistakable.

When the head of the Ge Family received the Nine Lives Reversal Pill from the auctioneer, all eyes were on him.

In the auction hall of Wanxiang Building, usually composed of private rooms where people couldn’t see each other, nearly everyone emerged, watching intently as the head of the Ge Family fed the elixir to his son.

If the elixir was ineffective, so be it; but if it was effective, wouldn’t they have missed out on a life-saving talisman?

Human nature was on full display at this moment.

Many present were probably hoping for the elixir to be ineffective. Such an outcome would make them feel like they hadn’t been taken advantage of.

In a certain private room, a lazy figure was secretly observing everything below. He noted each person’s expression, his long, charming eyes glinting with amusement and mockery...
