Qian Duoduo caressed the wine glass, his eyes gleaming as he spoke.

In his view, this wine would be considered undervalued even at a Gu King auction. Such a peerless wine should be used to refine Wine Gu.

The Wine Gu refined from this divine wine would undoubtedly be an peak-grade Wine Gu. If one considers it from the perspective of Gu refinement, the value of this wine would increase tenfold.

It’s important to note that Wine Gu is considered a versatile Gu. By placing a single Wine insect in any type of wine, a Wine Gu can be refined without needing a specific Gu recipe. However, a Wine Gu refined from a single type of wine is much weaker than one refined from a mixture of wines.

But even the weakest peak-grade Gu is still an peak-grade Gu, and even a weak one could easily crush any high-grade Gu.

peak-grade Gu is extremely rare, enough to make him go to great lengths for it.

At this moment, Qian Duoduo had already made up his mind: no matter the cost, he had to acquire this wine that could refine an peak-grade Gu.

Bound by the Integrity Gu, he couldn\'t use underhanded methods, but he could disguise himself and pretend to be a bidder, buying up all this fine wine. He had done this many times before, and it was no longer a new trick for him.

However, the last time he disguised himself as a bidder, things went awry, and he ended up spending more than he should have. This time, having learned his lesson, he slyly smiled after a moment of thought: “Your auction item qualifies you to enter a private room. You can sit here and relax.”

“But as you know, there are a lot of items in this auction, and time is tight. So, I\'m afraid we won\'t be able to auction your thirty barrels of fine wine separately. They\'ll have to be sold as a bundle. I hope you understand.”

Selling them separately would make it difficult to buy them all, and the price would definitely be higher. Therefore, Qian Duoduo planned to sell all thirty barrels in one go. No matter the price, he was determined to acquire the Spirit Recovery Wine at any cost.

Long Xuan had no idea that Qian Duoduo, as the auction manager, was planning to play the role of a fake bidder once again. Without much thought, he agreed to the request.

“No problem, arrange it as you see fit. I trust you merchants who have the Integrity Gu.”

“Alright then, I have many things to take care of. I\'ll take my leave for now. Enjoy the auction, and feel free to call me if you need anything.”

Qian Duoduo quickly stored all the barrels of wine into his storage bag, smiled, waved at the two, and left the room.

After Qian Duoduo finally left, Long Ziyan narrowed her eyes and said, “He seemed quite excited. A Spirit Recovery treasure shouldn\'t make a well-informed merchant that excited.”

“It seems he\'s planning to use your wine to refine Gu. For a large commercial manager to be this excited, it must be an peak-grade Gu.”

“Merchants have sharp eyes. Although I don’t know much about wine, I trust his judgment. The wine he\'s interested in must have reached a quality capable of refining an peak-grade Gu.”

“Have you ever refined Wine Gu using this wine?” Long Ziyan looked at him curiously.

Long Xuan\'s expression remained unchanged. He had never considered the idea. One Wine Gu was enough; there was no need to refine another one.

Moreover, he had watched Long Lie’s entire process of refining a Wine Gu and knew that each type of wine was essentially a Gu recipe for a Wine Gu. Every Spirit Wine could be refined into a Wine Gu.

However, the peak-grade Wine Gu refined from a single type of wine was extremely weak. The Lie Gu was nothing compared to his (Xiao Bai) Little white—miles apart. It was embarrassing that an ultimate-grade Gu could only breathe fire.

Thus, he had no interest in refining a Wine Gu from a single type of wine, even if it could produce an peak-grade Gu.

“Wine Gu refined from a single type of wine is very weak. I have no intention of using this wine to refine Wine Gu.”

Long Xuan had no intention of hiding his true thoughts from his Dao companion and simply responded.

Long Ziyan nodded and said with a playful look in her eyes, “You’re dismissive of a weak peak-grade Gu? For someone to be dismissive of an peak-grade Gu, it can only mean they have many strong peak-grade Gu, and their standards have risen.”

Long Xuan looked at her helplessly. This wife of his was quite smart. Having a clever wife was indeed a great pressure.

Not easy to fool, not easy to deceive.

“All top-tier geniuses must have a few peak-grade Gu. Even though I’ve never revealed my peak-grade Gu in the clan, everyone assumes I have a few. Your guess is something everyone has already known for a while,” Long Xuan replied nonchalantly.

“That’s true. Someone with as many contributions as you would have enough resources to refine many peak-grade Gu. The higher-ups in the clan have already assumed you have at least four peak-grade Gu. I used to think the same, so no need for me to guess again.”

“But even if I had five peak-grade Gu, I wouldn\'t look down on a weak peak-grade Gu. I also want to refine a Wine Gu from this wine.”

“If I’m not mistaken, the ability of a Wine Gu refined from this wine should be related to Spirit Recovery, which would be quite useful in battle. Lend me twenty barrels of this wine,” Long Ziyan said, reaching out, clearly unafraid to ask for a favor.

Long Xuan was taken aback, surprised that Long Ziyan was also interested in the wine.

However, in his haste to leave, he only brought twenty barrels of Spirit Wine, while the remaining twenty barrels were distilled Spirit Wine, which was Little White\'s food supply. If he gave it all away, what would Little White drink?

"Forget it, my wife comes first in everything, even bigger than heaven and earth. Little White will just have to go hungry for a while."

After placing the twenty barrels of wine on the ground, Long Xuan said, "This is the real wine. The wine Qian Duoduo just took out was fake, diluted with water by me."

Hearing this, Long Ziyan couldn\'t help but widen her eyes. "Fake wine? You added water to it? You really are a profiteer."

As the two were talking, a group of Gu cultivators at the Marrow Cleansing stage, who had some wealth, were already entering the venue, and the noise from below became quite loud.

The No. 5 private room where Long Xuan was located allowed a clear view of the auction platform below, and he could participate in bidding at any time. However, since there was no glass in this world, the noise from below could clearly be heard in his room.

Through the large, windowless opening, Long Xuan could also clearly see the people in the other private rooms on the second floor.

Suddenly, in Room No. 10 to the right, he noticed someone staring at him with a venomous gaze. Instinctively, he met the person\'s eyes.

After taking a closer look, he realized that the owner of the venomous gaze was someone very familiar—none other than Feng Si, whom he had severely offended. Standing next to him was a group of people wearing the same outfit.

He was stunned. How could the world be so small? First, he met the familiar face of Qian Duoduo, and now he ran into Feng Si, another familiar enemy. What was he doing here instead of staying put in the far west?

Following his gaze, Long Ziyan also noticed the venomous look and sighed, "Wherever there is the Long Clan, there will often be the Feng Clan. The two clans have been blood enemies since ancient times, warring for countless millennia."

"The ten clans of the Western Lands are the Long Clan, Feng Clan, Bai Clan, Dan Clan, Shi Clan, Hun Clan, Gui Clan, Lei Clan, Yan Clan, and Yao Clan."

"The Feng Clan of the Far West split from the Feng Clan of the Western Lands long ago. Unlike our clan, they didn\'t form a branch; they split off entirely, arriving in the Far West a thousand years before our clan."

"The Feng Clan of the Western Lands and the Feng Clan of the Far West held grudges from their ancestors, but by now, the generation with those grudges has long since passed."

"In recent years, our clan\'s development has been so rapid that we now have the strength to wipe out the Feng Clan. This has made the Feng Clan of the Far West feel the pressure, and out of fear, they have had to give up the old grudges and seek an alliance with the Feng Clan of the Western Lands, hoping to use them as a shield."

"Currently, the alliance between the two clans has already been established. Feng Si, being one of the few geniuses of the Feng Clan of the Far West, appearing here is not a coincidence."

"What exactly did you do to offend him so badly that he\'d look at you like this?"

Long Xuan withdrew his gaze and smiled bitterly, "It’s nothing. I accidentally blew up his brother. It was purely self-defense. Even Long Qilin killed his brother, but for some reason, Feng Si isn’t after Long Qilin. He’s only fixated on me. He\'s really like a ghost that won\'t leave me alone."

"Well, good luck then. The hatred of a brother\'s death is irreconcilable. You’d better be careful when you go out in the future."

Long Ziyan glanced at Feng Si again, memorizing his face. She had already made up her mind that if the opportunity arose, she would eliminate him as soon as possible.

As a bell rang, a sexy and enchanting female auctioneer appeared on the stage, holding a small golden hammer, and smiled charmingly at the crowd below.

The auction house, which had been noisy just moments ago, suddenly fell silent.

"Hello, everyone! I am the auctioneer in charge of today’s auction. You can all call me Shao Shao."

"Since there are so many items up for auction today, and one more has just been added, I won’t waste time with a long introduction."

"Now, let’s begin the auction with the first item."

With those words, Shao Shao took out a pill bottle from her storage ring, holding it gently in her palm, smiling as she looked at the audience.

Long Xuan was startled. Wow! To save time and auction off as many treasures as possible, the auctioneer was directly pulling the items out of her storage ring.

Back in the Far West, during the Qian Clan\'s auctions, all the treasures were brought out on jade plates carried by beautiful, elegantly dressed attendants. It was very ceremonial and looked official.

But this time, there were so many treasures up for auction that these profiteers, trying to make more money, had skipped this time-consuming process, pulling treasures straight from storage rings. Could this have been the brainchild of that profiteer Qian Jinjin? Long Xuan couldn’t help but think.

However, what shocked him even more was what came next. When the auctioneer opened the pill bottle, a rich fragrance of pills filled the air. Long Xuan instinctively sniffed it and was instantly surprised.

This pill fragrance seemed so familiar. Wasn\'t it the exact Spirit Surge Pill he had traded to Qian Jinjin while pretending to be a mysterious alchemist?

However, to avoid revealing the secret of the Spirit Surge Grass, he had renamed it to the Marrow Cleansing Pill. He didn’t expect her to bring the Marrow Cleansing Pill here for auction.

At this moment, Long Xuan\'s insect bag stirred, and soon, a furry little head poked out, sniffing the pill fragrance that had drifted into the room. It looked at the pill bottle in the female auctioneer\'s hand with a puzzled expression.

Wasn\'t that the pill it had painstakingly refined? How did it end up here?

"Who told you to come out? Go back in. Without my order, you’re not allowed to come out in public, understand?"

Long Xuan hurriedly pushed the furry little head back into the bag.
