Chapter 997: It's a Steal

"Oh, how I love an arrogant young master," Alex exclaimed with a smile.

[Usually, they are something that should be avoided since they are troublemakers, but it seems this one is a bit special.]

"Yes. The problem is whether the elders around him will stop him or not…" Alex nodded with a smirk. Since the other party had started, he raised the bid even further. "One hundred sixty!"

"What?!" The young master gritted his teeth.

"Young master Quila, I am afraid we shouldn't fight for it because it will just be a waste of money." The elder from his house advised him but to no avail.

"Do you think I don't know about it? But since he is going to offend me with just that tiny strength, it's better to eliminate him." Quila had a sinister smile on his face. "The Luzear Family should have checked his belongings, right? It means he does have this amount of money. We will buy this spear as high as we like and eliminate that guy after this.

"In other words, these are free items for us. Do you think I just recklessly fight for it? Besides, we won't make a political battle with the Unsurpassed Blade Sect due to their tradition. All those people who have gone out of the sect won't be protected by the sect.

"Hence, we are able to kill them. And now, someone who only knows a peak master's favorite disciple dares to anger me? I will just take this chance to win everything."

The two elders looked at him with a complicated expression. On one hand, they agreed with his explanation. On the other hand, they felt something was missing in his logic.

The other party should also know their identity, so if he dared to fight them, it meant whoever it was had something to assure his protection.

They needed to wait and see whether they could understand the other party's motive, so they didn't stop their young master for the time being.

Meanwhile, Alex was contemplating whether he should make an excuse or something to bait him even more, but he heard the other party shouted out loud.

"One hundred seventy! Since you dare to not give me face, I won't let you have the spear either."

'Nice.' Alex said inwardly and immediately replied. "As always, you look down on people. You have never realized how many people you have ruined because of that arrogance. Since that is the case, I won't hold back. One hundred eighty!"

The auction room became silent. They never expected that one of the VVIPs had a grudge against Quila.

When the elders heard this, their eyes intertwined and thought the same thing. "So, all this just for revenge."

"He couldn't contain his anger anymore and choose to do this?"

The elders began their discussion while Quila's smile became even bigger.

He never thought that there was someone like him who was so foolish and didn't know his standing. Quila shouted back. "Do you think you are good? No, you are foolish. A mere Martial Saint dares to challenge me."

Before he wanted to release his Divine Energy, he stopped and remembered the rule of the auction house. Although he didn't like the rule and wanted to crush Alex, his teacher had asked him not to make too much commotion, especially with the outside family.

In that case, he raised the bid again. "One hundred ninety. You won't be able to beat me, peasant."

Since it had increased twenty percent of its market price, he decided to end this bid and just let him buy it."

"One hundred ninety million. Going once."

"Going twice."

"Sold!"

When they saw their young master buying a spear with that much money, they became a bit worried.

"Young Master."

"Don't worry. We practically buy this spear with free money since we will get the rest from his corpse." Quila smiled. "I have my own way. I wonder what his face will be if he knows that everything he has will become mine in the end. I am looking forward to seeing his despair.

Alex only enjoyed his time inside the room, unaware of Quila's real thoughts. Either case, he would surely chase him after this, especially after the last bid.

Aria started panicking when she saw Alex's expression. "Nyx. Why are you antagonizing him? If the other party—"

Alex stopped her and said. "You will see why I did this later."

Even though she was unwilling to back down, she ultimately stopped asking him and stepped back. "Alright."

Not long after this, Nella, who seemed to understand the real situation, stormed inside with a complicated expression. "Are you insane? What are you doing?"

Alex looked at her and lied with a cold gaze. "What? I can't do that? You don't know what I have gone through, so don't you dare advise me with all bullsh*ts."

"Wha—" Nella never expected to hear Alex speak such words. In her mind, Alex was calm and composed, but the current Alex was the exact opposite.

Suddenly, a thought arose in her mind, and she started misunderstanding the whole situation. She looked at him, specifically his mask.

Not many had seen his face, but when she recalled his burn marks that seemed to create a deep scar in his heart, she realized the whole matter.

'Don't tell me…The one that inflicted that wound was Quila? He said it's reminding him of something important, so this must be the truth. And seeing how he reacts, he must have another thing that makes him this crazy.

_{The latest_epi_sodes are on_the novel35.COM website.}

'His family? Did his family get ruined by Quila? Or maybe by his Siko Family? Wait a minute. Was the reason he joined the mission to help me because the Siko Family participated in this? If I see it this way, it makes sense.

'In other words, the fight between them is assured. If I help him, there is a chance that he will die. In that case, the promise with the ancestor is annulled. However…If he really is someone who is worth the effort?' Nella fell into deep thought, wondering whether she should show the stance of the Luzear Family or not.

On one hand, if Alex were someone like the person in her ancestor's mouth, the moment he rose to the top, their Luzear Family would reap the most benefits. However, this situation seemed to be leaning to the edge of failure because he couldn't contain his anger.

Nella couldn't easily decide this and contemplated on what to do. If she left the room once again, Alex would surely suspect her, but this matter was already beyond her league. This type of matter was something that the family head should decide, not her.

With a heavy heart, she left the room once again, discussing this matter with her parents.

Alex only smiled while Aria shook her head, knowing that her chance was practically nonexistent.

Unlike Aria, who was bold enough to separate herself from her family, Nella leaned to her family too much.

Alex took a few more bids to fight Quila to make his bluff more believable.

An hour later, Nella had yet to return while the auction had gone to the last item, the main item that Quila needed to increase his cultivation.

"We have finally reached the end of our last item. To close it, we will present you with the best items that we have brought. This is called Lightning Brit Root. It has the powerful Lightning Element inside it that can increase one's cultivation dramatically, even for God Rank Experts.

"Unfortunately, this pill is still considered a Low Rank Divine Herb. So, the bid will start from one hundred million Spirit Crystal. Every bit can't be lower than ten million. Start!"

"One hundred ten…"

"One hundred twenty…"

The people from below started bidding like normal before Quila stated out loud. "Three hundred million Spirit Crystal. I wonder who dares to fight me for it?!"

None of them actually dared to take it from them, but they also knew this was a blatant taunt to Alex.

Their eyes were locked in Alex's room.

Alex smiled and tested the water. "Three hundred fifty."

"Four hundred million!"

They didn't follow the standard anymore, but none of them dared to raise an objection. From normal people's perspective, these two were trying to flaunt their wealth, but for the Luzear Family, they didn't mind because if they followed the same patterns as the previous items, it would go beyond one billion Spirit Crystals.

"Four hundred fifty million." Alex didn't mind since this was the only item he wanted. He had played enough to make Quila do his bidding. If his character were like he predicted, this would be a smooth sail.

Aria had yet to understand his real motive and kept questioning in her mind. When she saw Alex buying a single herb for four hundred fifty million Spirit Crystals, she had no words. For her, it was something beyond her capability, so it made her wonder how wealthy Alex truly was.

But to everyone's surprise, Quila suddenly backed down from the fight and said. "You bastard! If not because of you bidding against me, I will get this item without any problem. Do you think you are safe because we are in this auction?"

Alex only closed his eyes with a smile, knowing everything was according to his plan. There was no need to explain it anymore. What Quila said was a lie.

"This…" Aria narrowed her eyes, looking at Alex.

"A medicinal herb like this can go as far as one billion Spirit Crystal. One to ten billion is the price for Mid Rank Divine Herb, while the highest herb can go as far as one hundred to two hundred billion. That's why this is a discounted price.

"His statement is a lie. It's just a facade to get this herb without using his money. After all, he will surely come after me as soon as we leave the auction house. Just calculate the money he used to buy those few items…If we subtract the market price, there is only an additional two hundred million.

"If he killed us, it's the same as buying this sword with only two hundred million. Since there is friction between his family and the Luzear Family, he mustn't want to give too much money to them either, so yeah, this is the best solution.

"And there are also our belongings. He will win big, or at least, that's what he thought. Meanwhile, it's a bit different in our point of view. We haven't used a single Spirit Crystal in this auction and only buy this herb for less than half the price. Isn't that a steal?" Alex smiled.

Aria gasped, never thinking it had been structured like this.

"I am sure you can make a strategy like this, but you need more experience. After all, you were a sheltered young lady for a long time, and that talent couldn't bloom properly. Take this lesson to your heart and become stronger." Alex smiled.

In their perspective, they would have a big win, but whether they were the winner or not would be determined whether Alex died or not after this.

Suddenly, Aria grasped something behind Alex's real intention and remembered how he asked a body double from Silvia.

"Don't tell me. Are you planning to die?"

"Not die." Alex shook his head. "I can handle the Rank 6 God since he is a Fire Element. As for the Rank 7 God, he won't be able to kill me. I will just act as if he is able to kill me and hide."

"Then…Are you…"

"Nope. It's time for me to leave. That's why this is my last lesson for you. Don't stop training and keep improving yourself." Alex smiled.

"You…" Aria never expected that Alex would leave today. "You still…"

"I will still go to the Sword Pavilion, but you won't recognize me. After that, I will leave this world. This is the perfect chance to make everyone believe me. And this requires your effort too…"

Aria looked down, feeling complicated. She never thought the day would come this soon, but she knew Alex wouldn't change her mind.

She walked behind him and hugged him from behind. "I understand. Leave everything to me, and I will soon come after you. Thank you for everything."

Alex closed his eyes and smiled.
