Chapter 3358: The Auctioneer Wasn’t Cute at All
The auctioneer wasn’t cute at all.
“The next auction item, love’s thousand knots—starting bid at eighty thousand merit points. Each bid increase must exceed a thousand—don’t just raise it bit by bit.” The old auctioneer sounded a little impatient.
Ning Shu flipped through the auction details—love’s thousand knots was formed by the love of ten thousand pairs of soulmates across ten lifetimes, woven into a knot through special power.
Ten thousand couples, and over ten lifetimes too—what a massive workload.
This kind of thing was obviously meant for couples.
But eighty thousand merit points—so expensive! She only got twenty thousand merit points for saving a broken, undeveloped plane. Eighty thousand was sky-high.
Mei Ziqing stared at love’s thousand knots without blinking. Ning Shu said, “Even if you buy it now, it’s useless.”
The person was already gone.
Mei Ziqing said, “If we had love’s thousand knots, we would’ve understood each other’s hearts, and things wouldn’t have turned out like this.”
Ning Shu didn’t say anything. So much merit—ordinary people really couldn’t afford it.
Love’s thousand knots was the condensed love of soulmates across ten lifetimes.
It was essentially a tool to preserve love.
After all, two different individuals had different thoughts and understandings.
Situations where the man is silent and the woman cries—both of them dumbfounded, one wondering what they did wrong and the other just crying.
“You’re such a big idiot, such a big idiot!”
At times like that, love’s thousand knots would come in handy.
In the end, a couple won love’s thousand knots for ninety thousand merit points.
Ning Shu felt phantom pain, worse than having her thing chopped off.
Ninety thousand, holy shit!
Mei Ziqing looked deeply resentful. Ning Shu didn’t know if it was because of the affectionate couple or the fact that love’s thousand knots was bought by someone else.
Either way, the two of them looked constipated watching the lively scene.
Ning Shu silently watched the auction items—the prices made her foam at the mouth.
“The final auction item—a world vessel.” The old auctioneer said expressionlessly, “Starting bid: eighty thousand merit points and one hundred fifty thousand faith power. Each bid increase must be at least ten thousand.”
Ning Shu clutched her chest, coughing up blood—who could afford such a price?
And it required both merit points and faith power. If you wanted to bid, you had to raise both.
This price was absolutely insane.
But this world vessel was truly extraordinary—it was a world tree.
A single leaf could form an entire world, and there were countless leaves on the tree.
Ning Shu’s hands itched just looking at it—she really wanted it.
She remembered that the fragrant man’s world vessel was also a tree.
The item was great, but the price was soul-crushing.
The entire venue fell into silence—stunned by the auction item itself and even more by its price.
“No one bidding? Then the world tree is unsold.” The old auctioneer had it taken away.
Ning Shu: …
At such an absurd price, couldn’t they at least give people a moment to think it over? It’s not like buying three square pastries for a dollar.
Couldn’t they give people time to borrow money?
What a willful auctioneer.
“Wait a moment.” Someone stood up and spoke.
The auctioneer looked at him. “Are you bidding?”
“I just wanted to look at it a little longer—I’m not bidding,” the person said.
The price had eliminated nearly all task-takers present.
Ning Shu looked towards the private rooms—this was when the real tycoons should step in, right?
The old auctioneer silently waited, but in the end, no one spoke up. A cold wind blew through the auction hall.
Dead silence.
The price was just too terrifying—Ning Shu had never seen so much merit and faith power in her life.
Her confidence took a devastating blow.
