From her point of view, Lin Yi's unusual behavior of bidding against Zheng Tianjie was clearly to show his existence in front of her, to express his dissatisfaction with her previous indifference!
"Hmph, I must thoroughly investigate this bumpkin's background when I return. He actually dared to rely on throwing spiritual jades to attract Junior Sister Tian Chan's attention in front of this Young Master. A toad wanting to eat swan meat, do you think you're worthy?" Zheng Tianjie scolded Lin Yi from afar while enjoying everyone's shocked gazes.
The reason why he suddenly changed his mind was because of Tian Chan. He threw so many Spiritual Jades just to please Tian Chan, but now Tian Chan was actually paying attention to another man. How could he tolerate this?
No matter how many Spiritual Jades he threw, he must trample on Lin Yi today. He must let this bumpkin who came out of nowhere know what a big shot of Middle Island was like!
This strange turn of events really made Lin Yi stunned for a long time, but things did not end there. Lin Yi quickly calmed down and continued, "Since you are in such a good mood, I will accompany you to the end. Three hundred thousand Spiritual Jades."
"Humph, you want to compete with me? You do not know the immensity of heaven and earth. Today, I will smash you to death with Spiritual Jades. Five hundred thousand Spiritual Jades!" Zheng Tianjie said arrogantly. In order to show his face in front of Tian Chan, he was hysterical and did not care about the price.
"Five hundred thousand Spiritual Jades?" Lin Yi raised his eyelids, and just when everyone thought that the madman was going to keep fighting with the idiot Zheng Tianjie, he suddenly changed the topic. "I actually just wanted to see how much money you have, that's all. I wasn't planning on buying this set in the first place, but since you're so sincere about it, I won't take it away from you. You can have the five hundred thousand spirit jades."
With that, Lin Yi sat down leisurely, as if this matter really had nothing to do with him.
Huh? He made such a big bet just to see the other party's capital? This invincible logic really shocked everyone present. As for Zheng Tianjie, he was stunned for a long time and couldn't react.
After a long while, Zheng Tianjie slowly came back to his senses under the strange gazes of the surrounding people. No matter how brainless he was, he now knew that he had been completely fooled this time!
"F * ck you, you cunning country bumpkin. I'm going to tear you to pieces today!" Zheng Tianjie was about to lose his temper on the spot. Even when he was in the middle island, he was used to being domineering. Now that he came to the edge of the Northernmost Island, he naturally had no scruples. Under the watchful eyes of the public, he was actually teased and provoked by a nobody like Lin Yi. It was unbearable!
However, before Zheng Tianjie could lose his temper, Steward Song's eyes had already turned cold. Countless fully-armed Northern Garrison Soldiers were ready to attack.
Even if Zheng Tianjie's identity was special, this was the Northernmost Island after all. There was only one owner, and that was Steward Song, who was acting as the island owner. If Zheng Tianjie was allowed to make trouble here, it would be no different than slapping his face in public.
Regardless of status or strength, the Northernmost Island was an extremely special force among the Heaven-Stage Islands. It was a special existence that transcended the five major islands. Although they were polite to the people from the middle island, they would never compromise. If Zheng Tianjie wanted to make trouble here, he was simply courting death.
In the blink of an eye, the situation became tense. Everyone held their breaths as a conflict was about to unfold.
Fortunately, the rest of the people from the middle island beside Zheng Tianjie got up in time to suppress him. They were not as arrogant and fearless as Zheng Tianjie. They knew that if they let things go on like this, they would only get themselves into trouble.
"What are you doing? Let me go! Are you trying to rebel? " Zheng Tianjie did not give up. However, the people around him were no weaker than him. They worked together to suppress him. No matter how strong Zheng Tianjie was, he could not move for a while.
Although this idiot's brain was not very good, his strength was shockingly strong! Lin Yi looked at this scene from afar. Even if he did not directly feel the aura emitted from Zheng Tianjie, he could indirectly feel the strength of the other party. He was not on the same level as Zheng Tianjie at all.
"Young Hero Lin, there is actually no need for you to give in. Although five hundred thousand spiritual jades is a little too much, our Hong Merchant Group can still afford it." Hong Zhong, who was at the side, said. With the huge help that Lin Yi had given to the Hong Merchant Group this time, no matter how much spiritual jades he had, the Hong Merchant Group would definitely pay for him without hesitation.
After all, during this period of time, although the Hong Merchant Group had been tricked by Wang Tong and the others and was extremely short of high-end resources, correspondingly, the flow of spiritual jades in their hands was extremely abundant. Five hundred thousand spiritual jades was not a problem at all.
"There is no need for that. In my opinion, the value of this ten-piece set is not more than thirty thousand. Isn't it crazy to raise it to five hundred thousand just to spite a fool?" Lin Yi shook his head and said.
He did not know how much the top-grade elixirs he refined for Hong Zhong would be sold at in the end, but it was already very kind that Hong Zhong had supported him to this point. There was no reason to waste spiritual jades at all.
However, looking at Zheng Tianjie's ferocious expression from afar, which seemed to want to swallow him alive, Lin Yi also secretly cursed in his heart. "Not only do you want to touch my woman, but you also want to steal my casting materials. Damn it, just wait and see!"
Lin Yi was also a ruthless person in the secular world. Even in the current north island, he was a master who would kill whoever he disliked. This time, he was really a little annoyed.
Hearing Lin Yi say so, Hong Zhong did not say anything more. He immediately nodded and said, "Well, anyway, the casting materials you want should not be limited to this shop. I will think of a way later, and there should be a chance to help you gather them."
However, Lin Yi replied with a noncommittal "hmm". Whoever started the trouble should end it. Now his mind was completely focused on Zheng Tianjie. Whether it was for Tian Chan or for the casting materials, he must end things with Zheng Tianjie.
The main goal of this time was to lose the auction item, so the next auction had little to do with Lin Yi.
Although with the spiritual jades in his hand and the support of Hong Zhong, his capital was not less than Zheng Tianjie's, and he was competitive enough for any rare auction item, it was a pity that Lin Yi's mind was not on this anymore.
In fact, not only Lin Yi, but also Zheng Tianjie had lost interest in the auction after experiencing the twists and turns just now. Now he only wanted to do one thing, which was to go back and ask someone to find out the details of Lin Yi as soon as possible, and then find a chance to kill this ignorant bumpkin!
