Chapter 297 - 282: Silent Spirit Fire

Chapter 297: Chapter 282: Silent Spirit Fire

Jiang Zuo was now the most sought-after figure in Yunyuan Immortal City. Possessing two fifth-tier Spirit Beasts, his status was no lower than that of a Dao Fruit Cultivator.

Over the past decade, he hadn’t bought anything excessively rare from the three major auction houses.

However, he had purchased a great deal of various ores and materials.

He was now a VIP at all three major auction houses and had his own exclusive private room.

"Master Gu."

Soon, a beautiful female Cultivator walked into the private room and spoke respectfully.

During auctions, the three major auction houses would assign dedicated attendants to their VIPs.

Every time Jiang Zuo came, Qin Caixian would be there to attend to him.

Whatever Jiang Zuo needed, he could ask of Qin Caixian.

Qin Caixian’s beauty was in no way inferior to the female Cultivators of the Red Dust Immortal Tower. She had an extremely stunning figure, and her semi-transparent gossamer gown made her form appear and disappear in the light, making her incredibly alluring.

Had it been someone more lustful, they likely would have been unable to resist pulling Qin Caixian over for a rough ravishing.

But Jiang Zuo merely glanced at Qin Caixian, nodded, and said nothing more.

Qin Caixian saw this and was greatly troubled.

The Dragon and Phoenix Auction House was not the Red Dust Immortal Tower; it was a legitimate business.

The female Cultivators who attended to VIPs were forbidden from actively seducing guests with their words.

Under normal circumstances, guests were not allowed to do anything to them either. Their job was simply to serve the VIPs well and satisfy their normal requests.

However, if a VIP guest took an interest in them, they would not refuse, and the auction house would not interfere.

In the past, given her considerable beauty, Qin Caixian would dress carefully when serving VIPs, trying her best not to attract their attention.

If she were to lose her virginity, her value would be greatly diminished.

Qin Caixian was not from the Red Dust Immortal Tower, but in reality, before becoming an attendant at the Dragon and Phoenix Auction House, she had been sent to the Red Dust Immortal Tower for specialized etiquette training alongside some of their new recruits.

Among those in training was Zhu’Er.

Even back then, Qin Caixian had noticed that Zhu’Er was extraordinary and subtly became very good friends with her.

Eleven years ago, Zhu’Er’s fame suddenly skyrocketed.

The reason was that Zhu’Er had sung a song that left even many poets and scholars in awe.

After hearing it, Qin Caixian was also utterly astounded and knew there was no way Zhu’Er had composed it herself.

She asked about it in private many times, and Zhu’Er finally told her that it was composed by a Master Gu in the Immortal City.

Qin Caixian found it hard to believe, but Zhu’Er also urged her to keep it a secret, saying that Master Gu did not want the matter to spread.

From that moment on, Qin Caixian began to pay attention to Jiang Zuo, and later, through some small tricks, she became the attendant for his private room.

Over the years, Qin Caixian discovered that Jiang Zuo was truly a rare and perfect gentleman; he had never once laid a hand on her.

But a few years ago, Qin Caixian suddenly received a secret order.

The order was for her to proactively get close to Jiang Zuo, even if it meant offering her body.

On the surface, Qin Caixian was an attendant at the Dragon and Phoenix Auction House, but she had another identity.

Qin Caixian already had some interest in Jiang Zuo, so after receiving the order, she would deliberately dress up beautifully every time she received him, her clothes growing more seductive with each passing year.

This time, in particular, was the absolute limit of what she could do.

If she went any further, the auction house would likely not be so polite with her.

But to Qin Caixian’s frustration, it was as if Jiang Zuo didn’t even see her.

Jiang Zuo, of course, was not made of wood; he saw everything Qin Caixian was doing.

It was just that, given his current situation, he knew that if he acted lecherous, a mountain of trouble would be waiting for him.

He wasn’t in the mood for it; the mere thought was tiresome. So, he simply chose to ignore it.

The auction began soon after, starting with some relatively rare ores and materials.

When Jiang Zuo saw something he needed, he would bid on it at a reasonable price.

If someone was willing to bid higher, Jiang Zuo wouldn’t deliberately fight for it.

After winning an item, Jiang Zuo would give the Spirit Stones to Qin Caixian, who would then go and retrieve the materials for him.

Of course, for exceptionally valuable items, Jiang Zuo still needed to handle the transaction personally.

After several fourth-tier Spiritual Artifacts were auctioned off in succession, the atmosphere of the auction grew increasingly heated.

"Next up is one of today’s climactic items!"

"I imagine many of you have already heard the news."

"That’s right, it’s a rare fifth-tier Spirit Fire!"

The one hosting the auction was a white-bearded old man.

With a flick of his hand, a faint white flame appeared before everyone’s eyes.

"This is a fifth-tier Spirit Fire?"

"But why don’t I feel any intense pressure from it?"

"Does anyone recognize it?"

Everyone looked over in unison, but many wore expressions of doubt as they stared at the Spirit Fire.

Jiang Zuo was also confused. This Spirit Fire actually seemed less impressive than a fourth-tier Profound Ice Spirit Fire.

"Haha, the reason none of you can sense its power is because this Spirit Fire is very special."

"This Spirit Fire can absorb all surrounding sound and movement!"

"Even the loudest noise won’t be transmitted if this flame is present."

"This is the legendary Silent Spirit Fire!"

"Once refined and controlled, it can absorb a wide variety of Magic attacks!"

"It is a rare Spirit Fire that not only possesses offensive capabilities but also powerful defensive ones!"

"Of course, if used properly, the Silent Spirit Fire can also produce many other unexpected effects."

The white-bearded old man smiled smugly as he introduced the functions of the Silent Spirit Fire.

"It’s actually the Silent Spirit Fire? And a fifth-tier one at that!"

"The last Silent Spirit Fire appeared over three thousand years ago. Because of it, its owner even earned the title of Venerable of Silence!"
