Transmigrated into a heretical cultivator, leading all the villains to ascension.

Chapter 50 Auctioning Wild Grass

Soon after, one of the two who had just gone down boldly turned on his microphone.

"One spiritual herb can save one person, but these three people thought one spiritual herb could save all three of them, so naturally they were cursed and suffered a backlash."

Upon hearing this, Gao Huohuo thought, "This person has a very broad perspective! He can even come up with something like 'curse backlash.' No wonder he's a righteous cultivator."

"The eighth senior brother asked him his name and gave him a plant."

"Fellow Daoist, after hearing what you say, would you be willing to try it out and show the effects to others?"

"I can't ask for it."

After saying that, he took the herb and put it in his mouth, and sure enough, nothing happened.

"It seems that one spiritual herb can only save one person. Now there are only three left. What should we do?"

"My esteemed warrior, I do not yet know your name?"

"Zhou Mo".

Zhou Mo was very glad that he had won his gamble. The Lingyi Sect knew about how Li Dahai's three disciples had been tricked by evil cultivators and died.

He is already extremely fortunate to have obtained a spiritual herb for free. He fears that these three spiritual herbs will likely cause a bloodbath.

As expected, the other cursed people, seeing that there were only three plants left, stared at each other with particularly fierce eyes.

"Don't worry, everyone. My junior sister is still searching. She will send it over as soon as she finds it."

Lou Chongxiao's words not only failed to calm the crowd, but instead exacerbated the tense atmosphere.

Fighting is out of the question. If the spiritual herbs are damaged in the struggle, none of them will survive.

“I will offer two hundred taels of low-grade spirit stones to buy a spirit herb.”

With the first person taking the lead, the remaining cultivators quickly realized what was happening.

"Five hundred taels."

"Seven hundred taels."

······

"Two Nourishing Essence Pills."

"A set of defensive equipment."

"One set of defensive equipment once, one set of defensive equipment twice, one set of defensive equipment three times, deal."

The first spiritual herb was quickly sold at this price.

The remaining two plants were even more outrageous; the second one sold for two thousand low-grade spirit stones, and the last one sold for five thousand low-grade spirit stones.

Once the spiritual herbs were sold out, the faces of the other cursed cultivators turned deathly pale.

Are they just waiting to die?

Then another attack of the poison occurred, and the remaining people all showed expressions of despair.

Just then, Gao Huohuo's exciting voice rang out.

"Senior brother, I've found three more plants, which can save three more people."

This gave everyone hope. They found three more plants, so could he buy one of them?

He can survive if he takes just one plant.

You can earn more spirit stones, and you can find more treasures, but you only have one life!

Gao Huohuo handed the items to Lou Chongxiao, then turned and ran out, seemingly off to find more spiritual herbs.

Noticing several tails behind him, Gao Huohuo pretended to run very fast, then used the rocks as cover to apply an invisibility talisman and went back.

You think you can follow in her footsteps with such petty tricks? She's already done all that.

Back when she was a food delivery driver, these methods were a piece of cake for her to become the top-selling customer every month.

When she returned, the first spiritual herb had already been sold, and Lou Chongxiao was asking for its name.

Gao Huohuo overheard people discussing why they had to ask the name of a medicinal herb before buying it.

Another person nearby replied, "They probably want to use their names to their advantage and befriend the forces behind them after they get out."

"Which sect do these two people selling spirit herbs belong to?"

"I don't know. I only know that this person's junior sister was the first to be cursed, and she was saved only after taking this spiritual herb."

Soon all three spiritual herbs were sold out, and Gao Huohuo had no intention of selling any more.

If some people have already begun to have doubts, then this trick can no longer be played, otherwise it will be easily exposed and make us the target of public criticism.

"Fellow Daoist, may I examine this spiritual herb? Perhaps I can develop a elixir that can save more people."

The alchemist was speaking to the last cultivator who had bought the spiritual herb.

The cultivator thought for a moment and said, "Studying is fine, but you must return it to me immediately after you're done, and it must not be damaged."

Dan Xiu nodded. Just as he received the spirit herb, another group of people started making a move, including a third person who wanted to buy the spirit herb.

The man was so frightened that he snatched the herb back and wolfed it down into his mouth.

Dan Xiu looked puzzled. How come this curse seemed to have come to life? Could it be that Bai Qiang wasn't dead after all? Was it all her doing?

But the deep pit not far away was indeed there, and he had heard the explosion earlier, but something just felt off.

Whenever he tried to study the spiritual herbs, he was always interrupted, as if someone was deliberately preventing him from doing so.

However, those who took the herb did not relapse and seemed to have recovered.

Gao Huohuo noticed Dan Xiu's expression in the shadows and knew that she couldn't go out now, otherwise she would easily arouse suspicion.

After sending a telepathic message to his eighth senior brother, Gao Huohuo decided to switch to another plan.

After glancing at the location of his senior brother and the others, which wasn't far from them, Gao Huohuo sent a telepathic message to Chu Lingchuan.

"Senior Brother, if you're not busy right now, come and act out a scene with me. Remember to change into that white outfit."

Soon Gao Huohuo's voice came again, but this time it wasn't excited, but panicked.

"Senior brother, help me! Someone's trying to kill me!"

Gao Huohuo ran and shouted until he reached Lou Chongxiao, at which point he stopped.

When everyone saw Gao Huohuo's appearance, they wondered what had happened. It looked like she was being attacked.

Then, seven more righteous cultivators rushed over, but upon seeing so many people, they quickly fled.

"Junior sister, what happened to you? Did those seven people hurt you?"

Gao Huohuo nodded with a look of fear, and after a while, she finally spoke:

"I was searching for spiritual herbs outside when they suddenly rushed over, saying that I had spread rumors that they had wronged Bai Qiang, and that they wanted to kill me to vent their anger."

Seeing this, Lou Chongxiao pretended to be furious.

"They were clearly feeling guilty and wanted to kill her to cover it up. It seems there's more to the story about Bai Qiang."

"Senior brother, what should we do now? I dare not go looking for spirit herbs alone again. I'm afraid they're hiding in the shadows, ready to kill me."

"They deliberately smeared Bai Qiang and framed her, which led to the curse on all of you. Now they even dare to kill people. It's outrageous!"

"Then why weren't they cursed? If Bai Qiang was wronged, shouldn't the curse have targeted them first?"

Upon hearing someone raise a question, Gao Huohuo addressed everyone and explained:

"I asked them about this, and one of them accidentally let it slip."

They said their sect had some kind of treasure that, if carried on one's person, could ward off a portion of the curse's power; everyone possessed one.

As soon as these words were spoken, some quick-thinking individuals ran outside, and soon all those afflicted by the curse were also running away.

Soon only Gao Huohuo, Lou Chongxiao, and Dan Xiu remained standing in the same spot.
