C4255 He Plucked the Wool from the Sheep's Skin

Yanqing City Auction House.

When the manager of this place saw that the patriarch of the Ning family had personally arrived, he immediately used the highest level of reception.

Among the three major families in Yan Qing City, Ning, Huang, and Lin were once the weakest, but now, the Ning family was the strongest.

Who didn't know that two disciples of the Ning family had joined the sect?

"Master Ning, this is..."

Manager Lin brought the patriarch of the Ning family into the sect while secretly sizing up Ning Qi.

"Ning Xuan."

The patriarch of Ning family said with a faint smile.

"It really is the prodigy of Ning Xuan."

A hint of curiosity appeared in Manager Lin's eyes. After that, he sighed in his heart.

There were three people with spiritual roots in Ning family, but two of them were accepted into the Immortal Sect. Only one of them had mixed spiritual roots, and the Immortal Sect didn't accept them.

However, this didn't mean that the other person was an ordinary person.

In just a few short years, the entire Yan Qing City basically knew that the son of the Ning family's slave, Ning Xuan, who was not accepted into the sect, was already a well-known prodigy.

At such a young age, he knew as much as the adults!

Today was the first time Manager Lin had seen Ning Qi. When he saw the Ning family's patriarch bringing him to the auction house, he knew that the rumors were true. The Ning family no longer treated Ning Xuan as a slave's son.

Hence, when he looked at Ning Qi, there was more or less a trace of respect in his eyes, and he didn't dare to be careless!

"Master, did you buy those antiques from this place?"

Ning Qi suddenly asked.

"Yes."

The patriarch of Ning family said with a smile, "There are always good stuff here. If it wasn't for my face, I wouldn't have been able to buy some of them. They would have been bought by Huang family and Lin family long ago."

Ning Qi sighed in his heart.

Since he could sell counterfeits like the 'Peerless Saber Technique', there might not be any good stuff here. But luckily, as long as he had enough, it would not be a waste for him to absorb a few hundred points of spiritual energy.

"Manager Lin, let's not look at these things outside. Bring me to your treasure vault."

The Ning family's master said.

This was an auction house that specialized in antiques. However, the patriarch of Ning family didn't care about the things that were placed in the hall. He directly requested to go to the best treasure vault to choose from.

"Alright, alright, alright."

Manager Lin hurriedly nodded his head.

However, when the two of them were about to leave, they discovered that Ning Qi had disappeared.

"This kid!"

The patriarch of Ning family furrowed his brows. He discovered that Ning Qi had already run to every corner of the hall to stop in front of the antiques.

"Master Ning, why don't I call Young Master Xuan?"

Manager Lin said.

"Forget it. Since he's interested in this path, I'll let him have a good look at it. There's no need to hurry."

The patriarch of Ning family said.

The two of them waited quietly. After about the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, Ning Qi returned.

Twenty points of spiritual energy.

There were hundreds of antiques in the hall, but only a dozen of them were real. The amount of Spirit Qi was pitifully low.

However, these twenty points were enough for Ning Qi to upgrade the Qi Condensation Spell by two levels. It was still alright, but his ability to protect himself had become stronger.

The auction house's treasure vault.

Manager Lin personally brought Ning Qi and his friend to the auction house. When the guards at the entrance saw this, they immediately let them in.

In Yan Qing City, except for a few people, no one could receive such treatment. They could only participate in the auction to buy the things they liked.

"Yo, isn't this Master Ning?"

In the treasury stood an old man and a young man, as well as a middle-aged man who looked similar to Manager Lin.

When the man saw the patriarch of the Ning family, a smile immediately emerged on his face.

"Ah, it's Master Huang."

The patriarch of Ning family welcomed him with a smile.

The other party was the patriarch of Huang family in Yan Qing City.

Initially, the relationship between the three families wasn't very good. However, since someone from the Ning family joined the Immortal Sect... The Huang family had also taken out a sum of gold to support the patriarch of the Ning family. After that, the relationship between the two families had become much friendlier. It was just that there would be occasional quarrels and bickering when they met.

The patriarch of the Huang family had a young girl with him. She was the same age as Ning Qi, and she was his granddaughter. She was also one of the many children he had given birth to in Yan Qing City that day.

At this moment, she was looking at Ning Qi curiously.

"Eh? This is that girl?"

The patriarch of Huang family suddenly looked at Ning Qi curiously.

He knew that Ning Yan Dong and Ning Yan Qing had already followed Reverend Zi Yang to cultivate. Currently, Ning Qi was the only one who could still be brought along by the patriarch of Ning family.

"Ning Xuan, this is Master Huang."

The patriarch of Ning family said with a faint smile, his face revealing a trace of pride.

"Master Huang."

Ning Qi cupped his fist and looked at the antiques around the treasure vault.

This treasure vault was very big, and there were many shelves. There were antiques placed on the shelves one after another.

"Yo, Master Ning, this kid is just like you. He also likes these things."

The patriarch of the Huang family said with a smile.

"Yeah, Ning Xuan, go and take a look yourself. I'll talk to Master Huang."

The patriarch of the Ning family nodded with a smile.

Ning Qi couldn't wait for that. When he heard that, he walked towards a huge cauldron in the center of the treasure vault. He vaguely felt that this huge cauldron contained a lot of spiritual Qi. He had sensed it the moment he entered the treasure vault.

This might be the reason why those with spiritual roots had a stronger sense of spiritual energy compared to ordinary people.

He walked to the front of the huge cauldron.

+ 100 spiritual energy.

In an instant, Ning Qi's Spirit Qi increased by 100. Now, the total amount was 123.

Not to mention two levels, it was enough to raise the Qi Condensation Spell to its maximum. He even had to consider finding a stronger cultivation method, because he heard that the Qi Condensation Spell could only be cultivated to the tenth level of the Physical Body Realm.

However, in the Pugilistic World, the 10th level of the Physical Body Realm could be considered as a first-class powerhouse. For someone like the Ning family's Patriarch, who was only at the 7th level of the Physical Body Realm, he could take charge of a region!

"Brother, what are you looking at?"

A sticky voice sounded from behind Ning Qi.

Ning Qi turned around and saw that it was the little girl that Master Huang had brought with him.

"If Lengming and the others were to reincarnate with me, they would be as big as this little girl now..."

Ning Qi sighed in his heart, then smiled and said, "What's your name?"

"My name is Huang Xuan."

The little girl said.

"That's a nice name."

Ning Qi nodded with a smile and walked towards the next antique.

This time, he was able to get quite a lot of Spiritual Qi in this treasure vault.

Seeing this, Huang Xuan quickly followed, and looked at Ning Qi with a curious expression.

This was a piece of jade that looked like a Maitreya Buddha.

Ning Qi approached.

+ 5 Spirit Qi

Ning Qi approached another armchair.

There was no Spirit Qi, it was a fake.

After walking around, he found quite a number of counterfeits. However, the proportion of genuine counterfeits was still quite large.

Spirit Qi value + 1

+ 2 Spirit Qi

+ 4 Spirit Value

By the time the patriarch of Ning family and Master Huang had finished their conversation and called them over, Ning Qi had already collected all the antiques in the treasure vault. He had accumulated a total of 360 Spirit Qi!

"The two of you seem to be a good match. Master Ning, what do you think? Why don't you think about what I just said?"0

The patriarch of the Huang family looked at Ning Qi and the little guy with a smile, then looked at the patriarch of the Ning family with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

"Marriage..."

The patriarch of Ning family muttered to himself.

Marriage?

Ning Qi frowned slightly.
