Chapter 225 - Whopping Price
Chapter 225 Whopping Price
It was silent
in a weird way.
After Eunuch Feng finished his words, nobody spoke. There was silence at the Auction Fair for the first time.
Eunuch Feng was not anxious and still smiled. He clearly knew that it wouldn’t last long.
“The Lianshi Cult bids 500 million taels of gold!”
Many warriors in the hall were shocked. People of the Lianshi Cult were merciless. They massacred the innocent at will. Unexpectedly, they entered their name for the Auction Fair brazenly!
“Giggle. Elder Tao is really brave. In this case, I can’t hide my economic strength. I bid 600 million taels of gold!”
The fearful laughter sounded through the auction house. Many warriors were nervous because it was a man’s voice.
Tao Zisang’s face twitched. He said with fear, “It turns out to be Deputy Hierarch Hua. Hierarch Ye pays a high price for the Full Moon and Heart Strings.”
“Not really. Elder Tao is resourceful. Please take care of me…”
The voice of the coquettish young man was not shrill, but he tried to speak in a weak woman’s tone. Tao Zisang was close to spitting out.
At this time, Wei Youran and Tantai Yu finally couldn’t help but bid successively.
“The Wei Family of Nanjiang Country bids 700 million taels of gold!”
“The Tantai Family of Tianji Country bids 800 million taels of gold!”
The sounds came out from the two VIP rooms almost at the same time. Then Wei Youran and Tantai Yu looked at each other.
Wei Youran was calm. He looked far at Tantai Yu’s room coldly. He was defeated by Tantai Yu in the secret competition for presenting a gift to Dongfang Xiao. He held the grudge.
No one could defeat him in Nanjiang Country in schemes and other aspects except his sister’s martial arts skills.
Tantai Yu must die!
Suddenly, a surly voice came from all directions of the auction house. The two extremity warriors of the inborn realm who stood in the high platform got close to Eunuch Feng subconsciously with slightly different looks. They couldn’t tell where the sound came from.
“It’s really lively. Our Yinmo Cult can’t be absent.”
As soon as Tao Zisang and Deputy Hierarch Hua heard the words, both of them were shocked. He was… the Hierarch of the Yinmo Cult, Childe Li!!
“Childe Li!”
“Hierarch of the Yinmo Cult came here!”
“The Hierarch of the Yinmo Cult may be a girl; otherwise, why does the cult vie for the Full Moon and Heart Strings?”
“Rubbish! I heard that there is a holy girl in the Yinmo Cult. They naturally need the Full Moon and Heart Strings!”
“It is fearful. There will be a ruthless battle. When the Auction Fair is over, we must leave quickly. If we are involved, we will die in puzzlement.”
Numerous warriors were shocked. Some people even quietly left.
In VIP room 22, Tantai Yu and Qi Xianqing looked serious.
“I didn’t expect that the three major forces in the martial arts circle all came for the trivial Full Moon and Heart Strings.” Qi Xianqing sighed softly, but he became more serious. He said, “I should play hardball.”
Tantai Yu seized the tactical matrix of the mechanism. The Master knew that he couldn’t make it but he still wanted to try. What was the special function of the Full Moon and Heart Strings to Junior Sister Apprentice?
Tao Zisang’s heart beat fast. He couldn’t help but stand up to salute nothingness. He said, “Hierarch Li, your cultivation is much higher than ours. You are the elder. Why do you trouble the juniors because of the Full Moon and Heart Strings?”
“Yeah.”
The coquettish young man immediately said. He chimed in with Tao Zisang and said nervously, “Hierarch Li is distinguished. This is just a normal Auction Fair. You don’t have to come here personally.”
The two elders spoke at the same time. Many warriors were stunned on the spot.
In their minds, the Yinmo Cult, Hehuan Sect and Lianshi Cult were in the same rank. But today it could be seen that the Yinmo Cult was the most powerful force.
Tao Zisang was so scared that his legs were trembling. The Yinmo Cult had always been powerful but unsearchable. However, he was fortunate to see that Childe Li killed a person personally before. Childe Li spilt an enemy in the inborn ninth hurdle into two halves with one slap! How horrible it was!
The coquettish young man never saw Ling Li kill anyone, but Ye Tian warned him that if he met Childe Li in Yunjing, he couldn’t annoy Childe Li. Otherwise, he would die in vain.
The Hierarch, who was arrogant, was afraid of Childe Li. The coquettish young man was impressed by it.
The husky laughter resounded. Childe Li continued to say, “You don’t have to be so restrained. I don’t care about the Full Moon and Heart Strings. But Dahan Country is my territory. Since you came here, I should visit you.”
As soon as Childe Li finished his first sentence, Tao Zisang and the young man breathed a sigh of relief. However, the next sentence made them nervous.
At this moment, a middle-aged man in black was sitting on the attic of the back hall of the auction house. The man suddenly opened his eyes and looked strange.
“It is strange. I even can’t explore the trace of Childe Li with my exclusive psychic awareness. As the head of the family said, he is a powerful enemy!”
After the middle-aged man in black heard Childe Li say that Dahan Country was his territory, the man became serious. Childe Li didn’t pay any attention to the Dongfang Family. There was no such a rule!
“Even I can’t explore his trace. Even if he doesn’t reach the longevity realm, his cultivation is not the normal peak of the inborn realm. It is not useless to report it to the head of the family…”
The middle-aged man’s murmurs gradually disappeared. His task was not just to explore the Yinmo Cult. Since he couldn’t explore the trace of Childe Li, he could pay more attention to other forces.
He said seriously, “The Hehuan Sect and Lianshi Cult are evildoers. They dare to covet my Dongfang Family’s territory. They act recklessly and blindly!”
The bidding in the hall continued. It was competitive. Other forces didn’t dare to bid except the Hehuan Sect, Lianshi Cult and the princes of two countries.
Now the Full Moon and Heart Strings in Eunuch Feng’s hand was a hot potato.
They didn’t want to die in Dahan Country.
“2500 million taels of gold!”
Tantai Yu gave a frightening figure blankly. Many small countries couldn’t get so much money in ten years.
Wei Youran mocked and said, “It is boring to bid with gold. The Full Moon and Heart Strings can’t be measured by money. How about biding with the rules of our martial arts circle?”
Tao Zisang’s eyes brightened up. He said with a smile, “What Childe Wei said is reasonable. Our Lianshi Cult bids ten Wudao Stones and fifty medium-grade panaceas. If someone’s bid is higher than ours, the Lianshi Cult will withdraw from this competition.”
Wei Youran immediately became serious. Many people prepared for it. Compared with the powerful Lianshi Cult, he felt shameful for the fact that he just collected three Wudao Stones.
“Brother…”
Wei Zhenzhen was worried that they couldn’t get the Full Moon and Heart Strings.
Wei Youran took a deep breath and smiled constrainedly. He said, “Zhenzhen, it doesn’t matter. No matter who gets the Full Moon and Heart Strings, he can’t refine it immediately! The end of the Auction Fair will be the start of the real competition!”
