“450,000!”
Another voice came from another room.
Ye Chen said calmly, “500,000!”
“550,000!”
“600,000!”
“700,000!”
In the end, the price soared to over 800,000 while Ye Chen kept raising the price expressionlessly. However, his gaze turned colder and colder.
Whoosh!
The crowd was instantly stirred with excitement. Clearly, they did not expect the bidding to be so intense. Each bid was nothing lower than 50,000!
“Who exactly is this person? He actually possesses such wealth!”
“The other party must be from one mountain, two religions, three sects, and four groups!”
At the same time, many people looked at Ye Chen in shock. They were all stunned by his wealth.
On the other hand, Fu Qiuchan and the other members of the Star Sect who were closest to Ye Chen were stunned. The astronomical price of 800,000 Kun Dollars was beyond their imagination.
Fu Qingqing, who was next to Fu Qiuchan, could not help but say as she looked at Ye Chen, “Sister, why do I feel like his voice sounds like Brother Ye’s...”
Fu Qiuchan could not help but take another look at Ye Chen after hearing what she said. However, Ye Chen was wearing a conical hat. Even so, she felt that Ye Chen’s voice was very familiar.
“Don’t spout nonsense!”
Yue Kun, on the other hand, berated Fu Qingqing, “Do you think that Ye has so much money? Not to mention us, even the elders of our Star Sect can’t afford it!”
At this point, he could not help but smirked coldly, “Let’s not talk about whether this brat will attend the auction or not. Even if he did, he might be hiding in a corner in shock.”
“That’s right!”
Fu Qiuchan thought that what he said made sense. She nodded slightly and said, “I don’t think it’s Ye Chen. Perhaps it’s just that his voice is a little similar to Ye Chen’s.”
After Ye Chen called out the astronomical price of 800,000 Kun Dollars, the people on the third floor of the auction went silent. Clearly, the price made them feel awkward.
Right at this moment, a person wearing a conical hat walked out from the middle room on the third floor.
Under everyone’s gaze, the man removed his conical hat, revealing an incredibly handsome face.
“It’s Dao Sect’s young master Zong Rui!”
“What? It’s that Zong Rui that’s said to possess an immortal bone since birth and was taken as the last disciple of the sect master of the Dao Sect, Dao Master Lei Xing?”
“Tsk, I didn’t expect this person to come as well. One has to know that among the younger generation of our Kunlun Ruins, only the No. 1 person from the supreme sects’ younger generation can compare to him!”
As the handsome young man took the initiative to reveal his identity, the entire auction hall immediately fell into an uproar. Everyone looked at him in shock.
“Hasn’t this guy always kept a low profile?”
Even Yue Kun, who was sitting before Ye Chen, could not help but be shocked, “Why would he appear in Border Dragon City? Don’t tell me he’s here for the Xiao clan’s birthday celebration as well?”
“This person has always been elusive and extremely mysterious. His actions are not something we can imagine,” Fu Qiuchan’s pupils shrunk as she slowly shook her head.
Zong Rui merely glanced at Ye Chen calmly in the face of everyone’s shock. He then said while smiling, “Brother, I’m Zong Rui from Dao Sect. Can you let me have that sword?”
He smiled and said, “Of course, there’s a perk for you. I’m willing to give you 800,000 Kun Dollars and a Yellow Dragon Pill refined by my Dao Sect!”
Everyone was shocked.
Not to mention the 800,000 Kun Dollars, just the Yellow Dragon Pill alone made them jealous. Even Fu Qiuchan and the other people from the three sects and four groups were no exception.
The so-called Yellow Dragon Pill was an item unique to the Dao Sect. It could increase the chances of a top-notch martial venerable achieving the Pseudo Emperor Stage. Even a tiny sliver of it was enough to drive countless people insane. After all, once one stepped into the Pseudo Emperor Stage, they would be one step closer to the Emperor Stage.
“He’s indeed worthy of being the Dao Sect’s young master. He’s offering a heaven-defying medicinal pill like the Yellow Dragon Pill. We can’t compare with him!”
Fu Qiuchan secretly took a deep breath in, but there was a flash of confusion in her beautiful eyes, “But the people of the Dao Sect cultivate spells and divinities, why are they studying Sword Dao?”
The entire auction hall fell silent instantly. Countless people stared at Ye Chen, guessing that even he would not be able to hold himself back.
Zong Rui’s expression was as calm as ever.
However, Ye Chen shook his head lightly under everyone’s gaze and said, “I’m sorry, I must get this!”
Whoosh!
An uproar broke out.
Whether it was the 800,000 Kun Dollars or the Yellow Dragon Pill, that was secondary. The main thing was that there was a chance to befriend the future Dao Master of Dao Sect!
However, Ye Chen rejected it!
Zong Rui’s smile froze for a moment before he said, “Alright, I’ll give it to you!”
After saying that, he returned to his room. The entire process was very straightforward and decisive. He did not show any signs of anger or embarrassment.
The more he acted like that, the more everyone felt that it was the calm before the storm. At that moment, countless people looked at Ye Chen with gloating eyes.
Fu Qiuchan took a good look at Ye Chen and secretly shook her head, “Either this person has a shocking background and isn’t afraid of Zong Rui, or he’s a rookie!”
After that, no one competed with Ye Chen anymore. After all, Ye Chen dared to reject Dao Sect’s young master. Anyone could tell that he was determined to get the item.
The auctioneer made the final decision, “Congratulations to our esteemed guest for obtaining this supreme-grade spirit weapon. Please follow me backstage to discuss the details of the transaction!”
Under everyone’s gaze, Ye Chen held the little girl’s hand and followed the auctioneer backstage.
When they saw the two men holding hands, many people had weird expressions, “So they’re a couple?”
In a room on the third floor of the auction house, Zong Rui watched Ye Chen enter the backstage expressionlessly. A gleam flashed through his eyes, “Illusion?”
An old man in a Daoist robe knelt on one knee, “Young master, do you want me to kill him and retrieve the item?”
“There’s no rush!”
Zong Rui’s eyes glowed faintly, and a faint smile appeared on his lips, “There are many who want his life!”
...
At the backstage, an old manager respectfully placed Wushuang’s sword on the table and said with a smile, “It’s a total of 850,000 Kun Dollars. 800,000 is the auction price and 50,000 is the transaction fee.”
Ye Chen shook his sleeve, and a pile of origin stones that looked like a small mountain appeared on the ground before him.
The old man’s pupils contracted as he quickly tapped his finger, “No more, no less, exactly 8,500 low-grade origin stones!”
Ye Chen grabbed the long sword on the table. Excitement flashed in his eyes as he turned around to leave.
The elder hurriedly said, “Sir, my master wishes to meet you personally. Can you...”
“I’m busy!” Ye Chen said and left the auction with the little girl.
Not long after he left, a woman in a purple dress slowly appeared behind the old man. She was no more than 24 or 25, and she had a curvaceous figure.
The elder immediately bowed, “Young mistress!”
“I already know!”
The lady in the purple dress smiled lightly. She looked at Ye Chen’s departing back with a judging expression, “He stole from the King Kong Sect and got close to Fu Qiuchan from the Star Sect.
“Yet, he went behind the back of the Star Sect to purchase refining materials without restraint. Now, he has publicly rejected Dao Sect’s young master and possesses treasures like a storage pouch...”
If Ye Chen was still standing where he was, he would have definitely discovered the lady in the purple dress knew everything he did in Shang Santian.
“Interesting. You’ve piqued my interest!” The woman in the purple dress’s black eyes flashed incessantly, and her appearance was rather enticing.
The old man could not help but ask, “Young mistress, should we investigate this person?”
“No!”
A faint smile appeared on her face, “I want to see what this person is capable of facing the besiege of those supreme sects.”
