Transmigrated as Investment Banker in Cultivation world

"600,000 spirit stones."

"700,000 spirit stones."

In the blink of an eye, the price rose like a rocket and crossed one million spirit stones. The atmosphere in the hall was feverish, the crowd excitedly yelled with flushed faces.

At this time, Kylie was like a music conductor in a large orchestra hall, expertly guiding the crowd's energy and raising the price even further.

The price had unknowingly crossed the 3 million mark when David thought the price would not rise any further.

"40 mid-grade spirit stones," a young man spoke in a calm voice.

As soon as the coffee can had appeared on the stage, his face turned serious. He was going to get this feature and present it to the family head no matter the cost.

After the young man's words, the crowd instantly fell silent, as the price quoted by the young man was too absurd. Forty mid-grade spirit stones. Keep in mind that one mid-grade spirit stone equals 100,000 normal spirit stones.

Seeing that no one was challenging, Kylie announced with a charming smile on her face, "The item is sold to token no. 69." This time, her smile was even more genuine.

"Don't worry, respected gentlemen, we have four more such coffee cans," Kylie quickly added in an attempt to revive the crowd's spirit.

The auction continued unhindered, and the rest of the coffee cans were sold for a total of sixty mid-grade spirit stones.

"I didn't let you down, right? Manager, that's why I decided to hand over those cans to the Allison family," Bryan spoke when the last coffee can was sold, his voice a little high-pitched.

Beside him, David was also in a similar condition. He just couldn't believe the coffee would be sold for such a high price. After hearing Bryan's words, he nodded and looked at him with appreciation. He had made the right decision. David was satisfied.

"Master, now you are a rich man. You will have to buy a pretty dress for me," Mary, who had remained silent all this time, said with a charming smile on her dainty little face.

David was in a happy mood, so he just nodded without thinking much about it.

Bryan silently watched this scene without saying anything else. He felt the black-haired woman was too strange. When he looked at her, he felt a silent chill running down his spine.

"I hope everyone is enjoying the show today," Kylie announced. "But this is not the end. Are you ready for today's surprise?" Her voice was enchanting, once more igniting a fire inside the cultivators' hearts.

"Hell yeah."

"Bring her here."

"Sithian is the only reason I am here at this auction."

The crowd responded positively to her words, some even swallowing their saliva in anticipation.

Kylie gently clapped her hands, and two broad-shouldered servants dragged a chained woman onto the stage.

At first glance, she looked like a human woman, but if you looked closely, there were some differences.

She had two barely noticeable horns protruding from her head, and on her forehead, a red-colored gem was embedded. Her body was covered by a thin layer of clothes at the right places, fully exposing her milky white skin.

At this time, her face, covered in dried blood and dirt, was filled with disgust as she looked at the cultivators.

It could be understood why she felt this way. After all, humans and Sithians were generational enemies; hatred had seeped deeply into their bones.

In the last war, hundreds of thousands of Sithians were brutally killed by humans after someone had discovered that one of the Sithian warlords was raising human women like livestock in his territory. But no one really knew how the conflict had begun.

"She was captured by the City Lord's soldiers sneaking around Deadwood City," Bryan explained as he saw David frowning while looking at the Sithian woman.

However, Bryan had misunderstood something. David didn't care about the Sithian girl; he was frowning because the mana around the girl was moving at an insanely high speed, like a cyclone forming a huge cone-shaped structure invisible to everyone else.

David could only perceive it because his control and sensitivity toward mana had reached unbelievable levels.

Even Mary only curiously looked at the Sithian woman. If she didn't perceive it, let's not talk about anyone else present here.

Thinking something was wrong, David looked at Bryan and asked, raising his eyebrows, "Is this place safe?"

"Don't worry, manager. This place right now is the safest in the city." Although not understanding why David was asking this question, Bryan still answered honestly.

However, David didn't feel safe.

With every passing second, the mana cyclone around the woman was getting stronger. He got up from his seat and started moving.

"Let's settle our trades quickly." He decided to trust his gut feeling and get out of this place as quickly as possible.

"Okay! Wait here, let me call the staff." With those words, Bryan hurriedly left.

Not realizing the threat that was silently growing, the bidding had already begun. In a matter of minutes, the price reached 100,000 low-grade spirit stones. David completely ignored the events happening on the stage, his entire focus on the raging cyclone.

David nervously waited, and finally, Bryan came back after five minutes, carrying a bronze ring in his hand.

"Manager, inside is your share along with the bottle of enlightenment pills." With those words, he handed the ring to David.

"Let's go. We are leaving this place immediately." David didn't even bother to inspect the items inside the ring and started to move. Mary, although curious, didn't question him and silently followed his instructions.

While moving, David looked at Bryan and spoke in a grim voice, "You better leave this place while you still have the chance."

Although David didn't know what the Sithian woman was trying to do, he was sure she was up to no good. So he decided to advise Bryan given their past cooperation and amicable relations.

However, at this moment, the Sithian suddenly started to laugh madly.

"Everyone, one of you will be judged for what you did to my brethren." And with those words, her body lit up as if someone had placed a high-intensity LED bulb inside her.
