Chapter 165: The Bidding!

Chapter 165 The Bidding!

The base price of Sword of Goujian was also 50 million.

Chu Xun had to admit that the Linghang Auction House was of a high standard. The two items that were presented at the beginning were both rare and valuable, so he guessed that the following items would be more valuable.

“50 million.”

Someone immediately started to bid.

Chu Xun’s divine sense spread out and he found that the bidder was from the VIP room No. 42. There were three people inside, a man, a woman and an old man.

The man and the woman were very young. They were either about 17 or 18 years old. They were both very good-looking, although they looked a little immature.

The old man’s hair and beard were all white. He was actually in the Grandmaster Realm, but he was only in the Second Grade.

The three of them did not know that someone was observing them.

Hua Qingwu beckoned to Hua Sheng to bid.

“60 million.” Hua Sheng directly raised the price by 10 million.

Chu Xun saw that the beautiful little girl in room No. 42 was shocked and pursed her mouth when she heard the price, and her face was full of displeasure.

“70 million.” A hoarse voice sounded.

Chu Xun was slightly startled. This voice was not from room No. 42, but from room No. 50.

His divine sense spread out again, and everything was shown in his mind.

There were six people in Room No. 50. One old and one young were sitting on the sofa, and the other four were standing behind them.

The old man’s breath was restrained, but his occasionally glinting eyes were as sharp as knives. He was actually a grandmaster of Sixth Grade.

It seemed that a lot of people from the Martial Tao world had come to the auction this time.

“80 million.” Hua Sheng raised the price again. He was very confident when it came to money.

Chu Xun saw that the young man in room No. 50 was clearly furious.

The girl in room No. 42 suddenly stood up and said to the youth next to her, with her arms akimbo, “Big brother, raise the price!”

The young man smiled bitterly and spoke lovingly to the little girl, “Forget it. It is just a sword. If I get it, it will be my luck, but if not, it will be my fate.”

“No. Your birthday is coming. I must buy this sword and give it to you as a present.” The girl’s face was full of anger, as if she was very unhappy with the price increases.

“85 million.” The girl bid angrily.

However, as soon as she finished bidding, people in room No. 50 increased the price to 90 million.

The girl widened her bright eyes, like a wild cat whose tail had been stepped on. She bid without hesitation, “100 million.”

The face of the young man in room No. 50 darkened instantly. He was about to raise the price with anger in his eyes when he was stopped by the grandmaster of Sixth Grade.

“Don’t be impulsive. Our goal is not that sword. If you like it, I can help you get it later,” the old man said.

The young man nodded with a gloomy face and said, “Fine. I will let them take care of it for me for the time being.”

Hua Sheng was about to bid when Chu Xun stopped him.

After the young girl placed her bid, she pricked up her ears and looked very nervous. She did not feel relieved until the hammer came down three times. Patting her small chest, she stuck out her tongue and said coyly, “It really scared me. It turns out that they were all bluffing.”

Chu Xun could not help smiling.

The Sword of Goujian was indeed very good, but it was of no use to Chu Xun. He had planned to buy it to give it to someone as a gift. Since this girl liked it, he did not want to fight for it. As an old saying went, a man of noble character would never seize what others were fond of. Moreover, although the young man in room No. 42 did not speak out, Chu Xun could see that he really liked the Sword of Goujian.

The auction continued.

However, the following items were nothing more than age-old antiques that had collectors’ value. For Chu Xun, these were all inferior to the Sword of Goujian, so he was not interested at all.

But the rich men from the secular world were fond of them and fought for them hotly.

“Now, it is time for the seventh item.”

A herb was shown on the screen, which was totally red and emitted a red glow.

It was the Golden Crow Herb!

According to the legend, it had bathed in the blood of the Sun God Bird, Golden Crow.

It could enhance people’s cultivation after being taken.

There was a brief introduction, but it caused the warriors in the various rooms to become excited and breathe rapidly.

Chu Xun’s eyes narrowed slightly when he saw the herb. It was not the Golden Crow Herb at all, but the Red Flame Herb.

Who would be willing to take a spiritual herb of middle-level out for auction?

The materials for the Level-improving Pill had been collected, and now all Chu Xun needed was a furnace. But if the Red Flame Herb was added when he refined pills, not only would the success rate be increased, but the effect of the pills would also be enhanced.

“Let’s buy it!” Chu Xun said.

The base price of the Red Flame Herb was 80 million.

“100 million!” Hua Sheng bid directly.

“110 million.” There’s an auction.

“130 million.”

In the blink of an eye, the price was increased to 200 million.

Through observation by his divine sense, Chu Xun knew that the bidders were all warriors. People from the secular world were not interested in it at all.

“250 million.” The girl in room No. 42 bid.

“280 million.” The youth in room No. 50 raised the price.

“290 million.” The girl in room No. 42 raised the price.

“300 million.” The youth in room No. 50 once again did not hesitate to raise the price. According to his behavior, he was determined to win it.

The girl was so angry that her eyes bulged and she pouted. She was about to raise the price when she was stopped by the grandmaster of Second Grade next to her.

“Miss, we just came here to broaden our horizons. It is already our great luck to get the Sword of Goujian. Please do not act on impulse.” The old man comforted her with a smile.

“Xiaoxiao, behave yourself. The Golden Crow Herb is too precious and everyone wants it, including some great forces. We should not get involved in this trouble.” The youth advised as well.

Although the young girl was unhappy, she was rather sensible. She pouted and sat down in a sulk.

Chu Xun was surprised. Young as the youth was, he was very calm and mature.

The price of 300 million offered by the youth in room No. 50 shocked quite a few people and stopped their bidding.

“310 million!” Someone else placed a bid. After all, the Golden Crow Herb was rare and they could hardly find one, so these warriors were unwilling to give it up.

The youth in room No. 50 stood up and shouted angrily with a cold look, “350 million.”

“Young Master, don’t get angry.” The grandmaster of Sixth Grade dissuaded him.

“Leave me alone. I must get the Golden Crow Herb this time. If we don’t have enough money, just ask my family to send some.” The young man said impatiently.

The grandmaster of Sixth Grade opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end, he did not say anything, and had a disappointed look on his face.

The young man raised the price by 40 million in one go. He looked so rich, which scared the others. After all, their goal was not the Golden Crow Herb. The later items were what they really wanted and they would spend lots of money buying it, so they could not waste money now, so they all gave up bidding on the Golden Crow Herb.

The young man had a proud look and said, “They are just a bunch of hillbillies. How dare they fight with me for it? Will the Heaven Tao Sect be short of money?”

“Please watch your mouth, Young Master.” The grandmaster of Sixth Grade reminded him.

But the youth did not take it seriously. He said scornfully, “I know who you are afraid of. It is Chu Xun, right? He is in Gujiang City and we are in Yunyan City, which is thousands of miles away from Gujiang City. Are you afraid he will hear my words?”

The old man showed a slightly angry look. But he just sighed faintly and did not say any more.

They did not know that their conversation had been heard clearly by Chu Xun.

What a surprise! Chu Xun smiled, but his eyes were ice-cold, as deep and cold as a ten-thousand-year-old cold pool.

The youth laughed loudly. The hammer had already come down twice, and he would get the Golden Crow Herb as long as the hammer came down one more time.

Just as the hammer was about to knock for the third time, Hua Sheng bid.

“500 million.”

Everyone was shocked by the high price.

The smile on the young man’s face froze and his face turned red, as if he had eaten a dead fly.

“Who the hell is bidding against me? Do you want to die?” The youth was furious. He raged and his voice spread through the loudspeaker so that it could be heard by everyone on the whole 22nd floor.

Hua Sheng looked at Chu Xun, who then nodded. Then Hua Sheng walked to the microphone and said with a sneer, “How arrogant you are! Did you secretly order the Golden Crow Herb in advance so that no one else is allowed to bid for it? Then I would like to ask the Linghang Auction House whether it means that only this impolite guy is allowed to bid for it and others are not allowed to bid? If so, you can trade face to face. Did you invite us for fun? If so, sorry, I will not play with you.”
