When he laid eyes on the alchemy furnace, disbelief washed over him. The
Shennong Cauldron had unexpectedly made an appearance in this location.
In ancient times, Shennong sampled various herbs for the benefit of the common people and laid the groundwork for medicine in later generations. Shennong, in days of yore, crafted the ancient cauldron of a hundred medicines, known as the Shennong Cauldron. It was said to have gathered the essence of countless spiritual herbs over millennia, capable of refining a world-defying divine medicine, unattainable even by the gods of the Heavenly Realm. Supposedly, it harbored other mystical powers.
Of course, all this remained in the realm of legend. Yet, it couldn’t be denied that an alchemist with the Shennong Cauldron would be greatly empowered.
Thus, acquiring the Shennong Cauldron today was imperative.
“Is this truly the Shennong Cauldron?” Ye Wanwan widened her eyes incredulously. “But, no matter how I look at it, it doesn’t seem like it!”
“I’m not entirely certain.” Ye Hongxuan’s gaze remained fixed on the pill furnace on the stage. “However, it does match the descriptions in our family’s ancient records. Regardless, we must secure it today.”
“Father, rest assured.” In contrast to Ye Hongxuan’s vigilant stance, Ye Wanwan seemed much more at ease. “Even if this is the Shennong Cauldron, no one will contest us for it. After all, only alchemists can make use of this furnace. Others likely won’t be interested, and those who are won’t match our
Ye family’s formidable strength.”
This statement was undeniably true.
Not everyone had the qualification to partake in this auction. Even if smaller clans and wandering alchemists coveted the Shennong Cauldron, they wouldn’t dare vie with the Ye family. Hence, securing the Shennong Cauldron today was practically assured.
Ye Hongxuan nodded, but his expression remained unwaveringly serious from start to finish.
On the other side, Ye Lengan, upon seeing the alchemy furnace, immediately sat up straight, directing her full attention to the auction item on stage. It was evident she had set her sights on this particular item.
“Do you fancy this alchemy furnace?” Though phrased as a question, it carried an affirmative tone.
“Indeed,” Ye Lengan responded without hesitation. “I’ve been searching for this for a long time. Indeed, it came effortlessly! Today, 1 must acquire this.”
“Shennong Cauldron, is it?” Huangfu Ruiling nodded, unsurprised. However,
“This Shennong Cauldron doesn’t appear as formidable as the legends say!’
Though exuding a profound ancient aura, its potency seemed entirely different from the mythical tales.
“You know too?” Ye Lengan raised her eyebrows in surprise. “l didn’t expect you to be so knowledgeable!”
Even before the auctioneer began introducing the items, Huangfu Ruiling had already discerned the nature of the artifact. She was genuinely curious about
what Huangfu Ruiling might not comprehend.
“I’ve perused some books,” Huangfu Ruiling remarked casually. “The Huangfu family boasts a rich collection of books. In the Hidden World, no family’s library can rival the Huangfu family’s.”
“Really?” Ye Leng’an’s eyes gleamed. “May I go take a look?”
“Of course,” Huangfu Ruiling affirmed, looking at Ye Lengan. “Don’t forget, you are my fiancée and the future matriarch of the Huangfu family. Everything in the Huangfu family belongs to you.”
Upon hearing Huangfu Ruilings words, Ye Lengan rolled her eyes in exasperation. “Do you have the nerve to say that? When did I become your fiancée? I don’t recall you proposing to me.”
Huangfu Ruiling smiled and evaded Ye Leng’an’s question. Instead, he turned his attention to the auction stage. “Do you truly want this Shennong Cauldron? It doesn’t seem authentic!”
Hearing Huangfu Ruiling bring up the Shennong Cauldron again, Ye Leng’an’s focus shifted. She smiled mysteriously and said, “I’m very certain that the alchemy furnace on it is the Shennong Cauldron.”
Huangfu Ruiling looked at Ye Lengan without uttering a word, but the skepticism in his eyes was evident.
“This is indeed the Shennong Cauldron, but only a part of it.” Ye Lengan grinned radiantly. “That’s why it doesn’t seem as powerful as the rumors suggest. ”
After hearing Ye Leng’an’s response, Huangfu Ruiling immediately understood. “The rest is in your hands..”
