For no reason, the name Peach Fairy seemed familiar to her. And she had an impulse to buy this treasure!

Ji Feng was watching her with concern. Hua Qiyue shook her head hurriedly and said, “I’m fine. I’ll bid for that Spirit-summoning Mirror later. At least it’s something that’s been used by our ancestor before. It shouldn’t be too bad.”

Yun Shimo smiled gently and said, “My father has told me that if I hear of the Spirit-summoning Mirror, I must let him know. It seems that this Spirit-summoning Mirror is very important to him. That’s why I wanted to buy it.”

Hua Qiyue nodded. At present, she had written off all her resentment and hatred toward Yun Shimo. After all, he had a reason to take Tianci away. Now it was all over, and she was not a narrow-minded woman.

Bai Qianxue glanced at Hua Qiyue and then at Yun Shimo. His eyes darkened. They were so casual and intimate that he was uncomfortable.

The auction of the Spirit-summoning Mirror began with a starting price of five hundred taels of gold. Hua Qiyue was in no hurry. By the time someone made an offer of a million taels of gold for the Spirit-summoning Mirror, there was no markup.

After all, in addition to some prominent families and large sects, the rich and powerful one was the royal family.

“1.5 million taels!” Hua Qiyue’s voice sounded and made everyone present gasp.

Because everyone noticed that the guest in the No. 8 private room never made a sound. Now, when they heard the fair-sounding voice of a woman, they could not help daydreaming.

Furthermore, Hua Qiyue directly offered a bid increment of five hundred thousand taels of gold, so everyone couldn’t help wondering who she was.

“Who the hell is that in the No. 8 private room? An ordinary family is not quite willing to make an offer of 1.5 million taels of gold, I guess. I don’t seem to remember her voice either.”

In the No. 1 private room, a well-dressed man frowned and asked in confusion.

The other man chuckled and said, “Third brother, why do you care about this? However, it sounds like the singing of a nightingale, and it’s really pleasant to listen to. I’m going to get to know the mysterious person in the No. 8 private room.”

The crowd all looked at each other in surprise.

“1.5 million taels. Is there anyone else who wants to raise the price?”

“1.6 million taels of gold!” A man’s cold voice came from the No. 4 private room.

Hua Qiyue lifted her eyebrows and went on raising the price. “1.7 million taels!”

The man in the No. 4 private room kept raising the price to two million taels before he stopped fighting Hua Qiyue. Therefore, Hua Qiyue smoothly bought that Spirit-summoning Mirror!

As soon as the auction was over, Hua Qiyue and her partners made their way to the reception room. The two men who came out of the No. 1 private room were well dressed and were members of the royal family at first sight. While the man who went out of the No. 4 private room had a bizarre face and was surrounded by three gorgeous women, one of whom was Princess Qianyang!

Yun Shimo frowned. He did not know who the man was, but when Princess Qianyang looked at he and Hua Qiyue, she wished to peel them all off!

“Oh my, Princess Qianyang is here, too. Why is she so close to that ugly monster?” Ji Jing gave a low cry of surprise. Hua Qiyue shot an indifferent glance at them, turned around, and headed for the reception room.

“Well, birds of a feather flock together. Of course, she’s with such a person, or what kind of people would she be with? Do not think Princess Qianyang is very kind. In fact, she has been trying to kill Qiyue, hasn’t she?” Huangfu Xuan said coldly.

The weird-looking man was Zhu Jian. He caught sight of Hua Qiyue hurrying toward the reception room at a glance. Seeing her magnificent features, he couldn’t help but have an evil thought in his heart!

Hua Qiyue was as detached as a fairy. Even first-class beauties like Princess Qianyang could not compare with her in terms of temperament!

“What? Sect Leader, have you got your eye on another beauty? My word! You are a nuisance!” A woman beside Princess Qianyang held out her soft, jade-like fingers and tugged at the hem of Zhu Jian’s coat.

Princess Qianyang pursed her lips. She was looking forward to the clash between Zhu Jian and Hua Qiyue.

Given Zhu Jian’s character, he would not let Hua Qiyue go. And Hua Qiyue would not submit herself to this ugly monster, either. So wait a while, and she would have some fun!

“Of course, every hero loves beauties. Haha, we’ll wait here for that beauty to come out!” With a sneer, Zhu Jian walked into the reception room as well.

He bought a small treasure and a Ginseng with Nine Souls. For him, this trip was quite fruitful.

And the two handsome men in the No. 1 private room went toward the reception room, too. They bought three treasures and a Ginseng with Nine Souls. The royal family was wealthy enough to afford a Ginseng with Nine Souls at the cost of three million taels of gold.

As soon as Hua Qiyue and her companions entered the reception room, Long Shen led them into a small parlor. Long Shen presented Hua Qiyue respectfully with a sheaf of banknotes. “Miss Hua, the two Ginsengs with Nine Souls of yours sold for a total of 5.9 million taels of gold. But you bid on and bought the Spirit-summoning Mirror, so I deducted two million taels of gold from it. After the commission was deducted, the 3.9 million taels of gold that remained became 3.8 million taels of gold. Miss Hua, remember to come to Longting Auction House when you get something precious later!”

Hua Qiyue took the stack of banknotes and placed them in the ring, saying, “Okay, no problem!”

“Miss Hua, this is the Spirit-summoning Mirror that you bid for, please have a look at it!” A waitress approached her carefully with the Spirit-summoning Mirror in her hands and a respectful expression on her face.

The Spirit-summoning Mirror was placed in a square box. It was pitch-dark all over and had intricate patterns on it. An air of antiquity assaulted Hua Qiyue’s senses. She took it gently, and felt the aura seep into her body, causing her to feel startled all of a sudden!

Before her eyes were broken images—a charming red-haired man, holding a woman whose robe was stained red, sat blankly on a piece of scarred grassland.

The sun was setting, and the dusk seemed to flow tears of blood.

The man’s empty eyes were filled with boundless despair and pain. He said softly, “Fairy… fairy…”

“Qiyue? Qiyue? What’s the matter with you?” Yun Shimo’s voice rang out by Hua Qiyue’r ears at just the right moment, waking her, who was startled by the images, up.

Hua Qiyue shook her head. The broken images were gone and no longer appeared.

“Nothing… I’m fine.” Hua Qiyue took a breath. She closed the box carefully and handed it to Yun Shimo, saying, “Don’t you really want it? You’ll keep it!”

There was a soft light in Yun Shimo’s dark eyes. He took it and said, “Qiyue, thank you.”

Yun Shimo was so polite that Hua Qiyue was not used to it. After exchanging pleasantries with Long Shen, they left.

Little did they expect that they would see Princess Qianyang standing there as soon as they went out of the hall. Her pink outer garment quivered slightly. They could see that she was repressing her anger.

Hua Qiyue was about to walk toward her when Yun Shimo stopped her and said, “Don’t say anything to her. Princess Qianyang won’t listen to you now. Besides, I know she didn’t like Tianci before. If it hadn’t been for me, she would have killed Tianci.”

Yun Shimo’s words put the idea out of Hua Qiyue’s mind, so she went out.

To their surprise, the moment they got outside the lobby of the auction house, they saw many people standing aside. They were looked at with all sorts of looks.

“They look like strangers. I didn’t expect that strangers could be so rich!”

“Yes. Their accents are not like those in the Yuewu Kingdom, but rather like those in the Changjing Kingdom.”

“Are you kidding? The relationship between the two countries is not very good. I never thought these people would dare to come to the Yuewu Kingdom.”

“That woman is indeed stunningly beautiful, and her appearance is in proportion to her voice.”

“The men are not bad. They are all handsome with extraordinary temperaments. And one man… Gee, silver hair. What beautiful silver hair!”

“It is said that Bai Qianxue, the City Master of Spirit Heaven City, has white hair, but not many people have seen him!”

The crowd kept talking about them as if they didn’t exist. Hua Qiyue did not mind, but Ji Jing snorted. It seemed to her that these people had seen little of the world. Were there no strangers who had a pretty penny?

“That lady, please wait.” A soft voice called to Hua Qiyue. Yun Shimo looked back unhappily and saw the two men in fine clothes coming toward him, with a great crowd of imperial bodyguards.

The two men seemed to be from the palace, either wealthy or respected.

“Are you calling me?” Hua Qiyue pointed to herself and looked at the two smiling men.

Tianci chuckled and said, “Mom, how charming you are!”

Yun Shimo’s face darkened.

The hare murmured, “No matter where this girl goes, she has luck with men!”

The two men were all dressed in creamy white brocade garments, wore pointed boots made of gold thread, and were of great temperament.

The tall and thin one looked at Hua Qiyue with a smile and cupped his fists, saying, “Lady, I am Duanmu Jing, the Crown Prince of the royal family of the Yuewu Kingdom. This is my third brother Duanmu An. Both you and your friends are of great temperament. Why don’t we go to the teahouse and have a chat?”

Yun Shimo frowned and said flatly, “So you are the Crown Prince. Forgive me my disrespect. But we’re in a hurry. Why don’t we make it some other time?”

He didn’t want more men around Hua Qiyue. Bai Qianxue and Ji Feng were top-grade handsome men. Although they hadn’t shown their love for Hua Qiyue at the moment, who knew what they would do in the future?

And there was Xuanji! Perhaps he hadn’t given up and was heading for the Yuewu Kingdom.

“How dare you be disrespectful to the Crown Prince…” As the Third Prince, Duanmu An flew into a rage when he met such an arrogant man for the first time.

The Crown Prince waved his hand and motioned him to be quiet. Duanmu An cast Yun Shimo a malicious stare and snorted unwillingly.

Though Duanmu An was the Third Prince, he was even arrogant than the Crown Prince. In his heart, Hua Qiyue was beautiful, but she was definitely a woman who just had a pretty face or the daughter of a big family.

After all, Hua Qiyue had hidden her aura. For both of them, she was just like an average person, not a Qi Artist.

In the Tianyuan Continent, general Qi Artists looked down upon such ordinary people.

“Sorry, my third brother is not good-tempered. Please don’t take it to heart. Lady, if you’re too busy, why don’t we meet in three days?” The Crown Prince said smilingly.

Before Hua Qiyue could answer, she heard a strange laugh. “Hahaha… This stunner is mine. Go away, Crown Prince!”
