Chapter 407: Chapter 407 Breathing Soil

Xiao Zhan was baffled by her inexplicable outburst, unsure of what to say.

He had only meant to offer a friendly reminder, how did he end up being blasted himself?

He turned his head away, avoiding conflict with her.

Women, they’re just inexplicable; you never know where their anger comes from.

So, the best way to deal with their wrath is to ignore it. Wait until she calms down, then communicate slowly.

Of course, he wouldn’t communicate with Su Mulan. She’s not his wife, why bother?

Even if she got a mammary gland nodule, it would have nothing to do with Xiao Zhan.

Only with Ye Youlong would he need to clear things up... oh no, communicate.

After the fifty million bid, no one else offered a higher price, and Su Mulan successfully won the Refining Material.

Xiao Zhan just shook his head.

He didn’t understand the world of the wealthy.

What, Xiao Zhan is wealthy now too?

That shouldn’t be said carelessly; the difference between the wealthy and the wealthy is even bigger than between humans and pigs.

Once the item was won, it only took a few minutes to be delivered directly to their room through a private passage.

Xiao Zhan didn’t even glance at it; he was uninterested in it.

But Su Mulan took the Refining Material and approached Ye Youlong, "Miss Ye, what do you think of this Refining Material?"

"Not bad," Ye Youlong gave a non-committal evaluation.

"If you like it, I’ll give it to you," Su Mulan happily said.

She completely missed that Ye Youlong’s ’not bad’ actually meant she wasn’t interested.

"Give it to me?" Ye Youlong was puzzled.

Spending fifty million just to be a big spender, and now she was giving it to me?

"Yes, I’ll give it to you," Su Mulan nodded firmly, then added with a strange implication, "As women, the first thing we must do is love ourselves. We don’t care for what others don’t give us."

Ye Youlong was a bit confused by this statement; what does ’we don’t care for what others don’t give us’ mean?

Who is giving to whom?

Who cares and who doesn’t?

Seeing Ye Youlong’s perplexed look, Su Mulan thought she was just shy, so she stuffed the item into Ye Youlong’s hands, saying, "Love yourself so that you can be loved by others. Do not compromise, hold up the proud head that we have as women."

Su Mulan wanted to tell Ye Youlong, to hold onto the pride of being the main woman in face of the mistress’s intrusion.

Never bow down and seek peace actively.

Hit back hard at the arrogance of the mistress, even if the man isn’t standing by your side.

But these words, to Ye Youlong’s ears, were completely incomprehensible.

What...?

So what exactly is she talking about?

Why can’t she understand it at all?

Confused, she looked to Xiao Zhan for help.

Xiao Zhan said, "Accept it, to avoid wasting President Su’s goodwill, after all, this is fifty million we’re talking about, quite valuable."

Seeing Su Mulan’s eyes turn red, Xiao Zhan quickly added, "I mean the goodwill is valuable."

Lest she mishear and think he was mocking her.

Although he wasn’t sure where her sudden resentment came from, and it seemed somewhat directed at himself, Xiao Zhan still wanted to maintain basic politeness.

Su Mulan’s anger had subsided a bit, but her resentment had grown.

Just now, Ye Youlong actually asked Xiao Zhan if he could accept it.

Changing sides so quickly?

So everything I just said was nonsense?

And Xiao Zhan, how could you so shamelessly, with such righteousness, suggest your wife accept it?

Can’t you hear that I was deliberately mocking you?

Men, truly thick-skinned!

She instantly lost all fondness for Xiao Zhan.

The auction continued.

The items that appeared next were still of high quality and all innovative, indicating that the newly opened Secret Realm was definitely of a very high level.

And it was also a comparatively low-risk Secret Realm.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have easily brought out so many good items.

Although these items were all quite good, each causing a frenzy, none of them touched Xiao Zhan’s heart.

As the auction was about to end, Xiao Zhan had no interest in staying.

At that moment, the last auction item caught his attention.

It was a transparent glass bowl containing a small amount of soil-like substance, fertile and black. Xiao Zhan felt a strong life energy emanating from it.

The auctioneer announced, "Those who frequently garden would know, this handful of soil-like substance is actually just that: a handful of soil."

"Of course, this is not ordinary soil, but what is called Breathing Soil. Everyone can feel that, although it’s just a small amount of soil, it contains an immensely powerful life energy."

"After calculations, this small handful of soil contains enough energy to support the complete growth process of a Fifth Grade Spiritual Medicine."

"Moreover, this soil has one more characteristic—it assimilates the surrounding soil when buried, turning surrounding soil similar to itself."

"The bidding starts now, with an opening bid of twenty million, with each increment not less than five hundred thousand!"

Having said that, he waited for the bids from the audience.

Unexpectedly, the crowd seemed lukewarm about it.

"Just energy-containing soil, daring to start the bid at ten million, they really think we’re ripe for the picking?" someone in the room voiced their dissatisfaction.

A handful of soil, containing energy, powerful enough to support a Fifth Grade Spiritual Medicine through its growth process.

So, the value of this soil is essentially equal to a Fifth Grade Spiritual Medicine, and one plant of Fifth Grade Spiritual Medicine costs around five million at most. A better quality Fifth Grade can go up to ten million.

But the key issue is, who buys Spiritual Medicine in seed form?

Who buys the seeds?

Especially when willing buyers of seeds also need the seeds. Such high-grade quality Spiritual Medicine is a natural product of the world, difficult to mass-produce.

Seeds are even rarer to come by.

Thus, spending twenty million on this soil, isn’t that just playing the fool?

As for assimilating the surrounding soil, even a fool knows that’s just a sales pitch.

Assimilation can definitely occur, but the quality will definitely decrease after, and the energy weakened, so there’s really no need to buy it.

"One million fifty thousand."

Still, some were willing to buy.

But from the tone of voice, the desire to purchase wasn’t very strong, probably just thinking the soil was novel and fun, wanting to buy it for research.

"Liu Xin, do you see anything special about this soil?" asked Su Mulan.

Liu Xin looked and said, "Apart from the higher purity of contained energy, nothing special about it. That so-called assimilation is just diluting its own energy."
