Miss Loser is too enchanting
Chapter 229: Spirit Void Secret Realm (2)_1

"Isn’t there still two years? Maybe by then, other people will appear!" Dugu Qianye was not worried. She still had so many Beasts, after all. If worst comes to worst, a group attack would always be possible.

"Haha, Qianye, come back with your master. Your master will teach you some divine-level skills," Shi Honggui said.

"Master, there’s a large auction at Qian Pavilion next month, and I would like to participate," Dugu Qianye said.

"An auction? It seems there is such an event." Shi Honggui said, then took out an invitation and added, "I have an invitation here, given to me by Old Qu. I would’ve forgotten if you hadn’t mentioned it. You can represent the Spiritual Master Association there. That will spare me from Old Qu saying I’m not giving him face."

"If it weren’t for junior sister mentioning it, you would have forgotten again," Hao Pengyou said.

"You brat, who asked for your opinion?" Shi Honggui roared at Hao Pengyou. "Come back to the Guild Headquarter with me!"

"No way, I want to stay with junior sister," Hao Pengyou said, "What if someone bullies her? I need to be there to back her up!"

"Master, I won’t go back either," Fen Qingran said, "I’ve just met my junior sister, and we need to spend some time getting to know each other."

"You two rascals!" Shi Honggui exclaimed, "Take good care of your junior sister, did you hear? Qianye, if you see something you want to buy, just buy it, don’t worry about the money."

After Shi Honggui finished speaking, he took out several Crystal Cards and handed them to her.

Hao Pengyou couldn’t help but purse his lips, "Master, you favor girls over boys! You’ve never given me this much money!"

"Get lost! A big man like you, what do you need money for?! Besides, I know how much money you’ve taken from the Second. Do you think I’m unaware of that?" Shi Honggui kicked at Hao Pengyou, shouting angrily.

Dodging away, Hao Pengyou retorted, "Old man, you’re just biased, hmph!"

"I am biased, what of it?" Shi Honggui said, "My birthday is coming soon, have you prepared a birthday gift for me? If you dare to forget like last time, I’ll make sure your backside blooms from a beating!"

"Has master always been like this with the fourth disciple?" Dugu Qianye asked Fen Qingran.

"Yes! It’s always like this," Fen Qingran said, "The master is always busy and under a lot of pressure. It’s good for him to vent on the fourth. The fourth understands, so he always goes against the master. But every time they quarrel, both of their moods improve a lot."

Shi Honggui cursed at Hao Pengyou a few more times, then patted his bottom and left. Before leaving, he demanded each disciple prepare a birthday gift for him.

Dugu Qianye saw Shi Honggui off, giving him some Elixirs before he left. On her way back, Hao Pengyou went back to sleep, and Fen Qingran had opened a room for herself right next to hers.

In the following days, besides occasionally chatting with her two senior brothers, Dugu Qianye stayed alone in her room, meditating, cultivating, studying the Array Compendium given by Shi Honggui, or practicing Sound Attack inside the Refining Demon Pot.

Time flew by, and she only left her room when someone came looking for her two days before the auction.

When she arrived at the tea house on the third floor, Dugu Qianye immediately spotted Qu Xiaotian sitting by the window.

"Young Master Qu." Dugu Qianye approached and greeted Qu Xiaotian.

"Miss Qianye." Qu Xiaotian stood up to meet her.

"Why has Young Master Qu come looking for me?" Dugu Qianye asked as she sat down opposite him.

"I heard from the butler that a lady was using the VIP card I gave out, so I guessed it was you. After all, I’ve only given that card to one woman," Qu Xiaotian said.

"Is that so? Then I’m honored," Dugu Qianye said with a smile.

Qu Xiaotian looked at Dugu Qianye’s smile and said, "You are different from before."

"Hmm?"

"Back then, you were like a sharp knife, filled with a certain chill. Now, you are like a knife sheathed. Though still sharp, it no longer exudes that intimidating coldness."

"Is that so?" Dugu Qianye asked with a smile.

When she had first arrived in this world, she had found it hard to accept the people here due to various reasons. Back then, when Qu Xiaotian said he wanted to be friends with her, she had even refused.

"I heard you’re looking for the Fuyu Flower?" Qu Xiaotian said.

"Yes. I was just thinking of asking Qian Pavilion to help keep an eye out for it."

"There’s no problem with that. Being able to meet you here is also a kind of fate between us. This is just a simple effort on my part," Qu Xiaotian said.

"If so, thank you," Dugu Qianye expressed her gratitude.

"Ha ha, if you really want to thank me, just don’t forget about Qian Pavilion when you come across any good opportunities," Qu Xiaotian said laughing.

True to his merchant nature. However, his intention to help Dugu Qianye was genuine.

"The Marrow-Cleansing Pill at the last Xuanyue Continent auction was yours, right?" Qu Xiaotian asked with certainty, later having heard that the strength of the Mo Family had greatly increased, he guessed, "In the auction in a few days, do you have anything you want to auction? To be honest, there isn’t any astonishing elixir for that day. Do you have anything to offer in an emergency?"

"How about this?" Dugu Qianye took out a jade bottle containing a few white elixir pills.

"What is this?" Qu Xiaotian asked.

"Minor Rejuvenation Pill."

"Minor Rejuvenation Pill? A Level 8 elixir, Minor Rejuvenation Pill?" Qu Xiaotian asked.

Minor Rejuvenation Pill, as long as one still breathes, no matter if you’re injured or poisoned, it can pull you back from the gates of hell!

"Yes," said Dugu Qianye, "and it’s one enhanced with Tianhua."

Tianhua can revive the dead and mend broken bones.

"Ha ha, Qianye, you really have done me a huge favor! When the time comes, I’ll charge you half of the usual handling fee. Ha ha, with this, who’s worried about not being able to control the scene?" Qu Xiaotian laughed heartily.

Qian Pavilion’s list sent out didn’t specify the final auction item because one reason was to maintain a sense of mystery, and another reason was that there wasn’t any particularly impressive elixir. They had to keep it mysterious while continuing their search. Now, with Dugu Qianye’s elixir, the upcoming auction was sure to reach a new level of class!

"You must attend then, this Minor Rejuvenation Pill of yours will definitely cause a sensation!" Qu Xiaotian said excitedly.

Seeing Qu Xiaotian’s excited demeanor, Dugu Qianye said, "I will go. And I will be going with my senior brothers."

"Your senior brother? Oh right, you are now the disciple of the Guild Headquarter’s President. I’ll wait for you at the Qian Pavilion auction in two days," Qu Xiaotian said.

"Good. The matter of the Fuyu Flower, I’ll leave it in your hands," Dugu Qianye said.

After Qu Xiaotian left, Dugu Qianye went back to her room and saw Fen Qingran at the staircase.
