"Fellow Daoist Jia is right. Xiao Jing, you may continue," the Qiong Hai Island Master said without any hint of anger, turning to speak to the colorful-robed female cultivator.
"Yes, Senior Jia has offered five hundred thousand spirit stones. Is there a higher bid?" the colorful-robed female cultivator asked, glancing over the crowd.
White Scale Master kept a tense face, his wide mouth pursed into a line, while Queen Ming Kong furrowed her brows without saying a word, and Golden Transformation Master wanted to bid but was worried about angering the other party.
Jia Sifang, who was at the center of it all, seemed oblivious to these matters. After waiting for a moment, he looked back at the colorful-robed female cultivator to speak again.
Yuan Ming didn't place a bid either. Although the several abilities of the Tide Rising Misty Sea Ring were good, they weren't worth the risk of offending several Nascent Soul cultivators.
