Chapter 1213: Regretting It…
The purple-clothed lady lowered her head and twitched her mouth imperceptibly.
It was quite the exploit!
Whoever spent 170 thousand mystic currency to buy a prolongation pill would probably want to commit suicide from the pain of paying.
Upon seeing the petrified Commandery Princess Yi’an, the purple-clothed lady suppressed the amusement in her eyes and instructed with a light cough, “Girl, give Miss 20 thousand mystic currency.”
Baoyan reluctantly took out a large pouch of mystic currency from her sleeve and stuffed it in Commandery Princess Yi’an’s hands.
At this point, Commandery Princess Yi’an probably felt pain even from breathing.
As she looked at this money pouch in her hands that contained 20 thousand mystic currency, she felt that it was very weighty.
On this trip, not only had she spent all of the 150 thousand mystic currency that she had brought, she even acquired a debt of 20 thousand.
She was simply crying on the inside…
She felt this particularly when a series of knocks came from the door. The person in charge of the auction house personally came to deliver the pill with a genial smile and praised her with honeyed words.
She really wanted to holler at that fatty, “I’m not buying!! I don’t want to buy! Can’t I regret it?”
However, that fatty was clearly a shrewd person and had brought two muscular level-10 body cultivators with him. This was to prevent guests from refusing to pay up after making the winning bid.
However, if she said that she wasn’t going to buy it now, then she was probably going to get even more disgraced.
If rumors were to travel into the palace that Commandery Princess Yi’an won a prolongation pill for the queen dowager at auction but couldn’t afford it, where would her pride go? Did she still want her dignity in front of the queen dowager?
“This honorable guest?” The fatty recollected his solicitous simper as it shifted to carry a hint of doubt.
This wasn’t someone who couldn’t afford to pay after winning the bid, right!
“I, okay.” Commandery Princess Yi’an said hoarsely as she tremblingly took out a large pouch of mystic currency from her inner world.
She also gave that pouch of 20 thousand mystic currency that Baoyan had handed her to the fatty.
Afterwards, the fatty nodded with a simper as he took the mystic currency. He then handed a tray with the prolongation pill over to Commandery Princess Yi’an. “Honorable guest, please take your prolongation pill.”
Commandery Princess Yi’an stretched out tremblingly to pick a transparent cup from the tray, holding it in her hands.
This was the prolongation pill she spent 170 thousand to buy!
The fatty said a bit more words of praise, but when he saw that it looked like she was suffering from a huge shock, he said no more and gestured to the two body cultivator guards to follow him out.
Commandery Princess Yi’an blankly sat down on her chair and looked down, crestfallen, at this astronomically-expensive pill. All sorts of feelings were welling up in her heart.
“I see that there is not much to see from this auction after this. How about we leave now.”
Commandery Princess Yi’an really did not want to stay any longer in this place of heartbreak, so she turned to the purple-clothed lady with a nod. “What is Miss’s name? I will certainly pay 20 thousand mystic currency back to Miss after a period of time.”
“My name is Xin Yu’er.” The purple-clothed lady blinked her phoenix eyes and reassured with a smile, “It is not urgent, Miss. It is fine if you pay me back when you have more money on hand.”
“This humble girl’s name is Xueyin. Where is Miss Xin staying?”
“I am staying at the city’s largest inn lately.”
Commandery Princess Yi’an said with a nod, “Alright, once I gather the money, I will send someone to find you.”
“It is not urgent.” The purple-clothed lady glanced at Commandery Princess Yi’an meaningfully. “Miss Xueyin, then let us go out now.”
“Okay, this time really is all thanks to Sister’s help.” Commandery Princess Yi’an was indeed quite grateful to this lady.
