The Man in Black Bamboo Hat didn't look at Xiao Fei at all. His eyes were fixed on the jade box in the hands of the staff. When the staff came, the Man in Black Bamboo Hat directly took out his bank card, completed the formalities, and took the Five Poisons Secret Book.
He flipped through a few pages in his hand and put it into his pocket. However, he didn't take his hand out immediately. Instead, he fumbled for something. After a while, he took out a … Talisman!
It was the Long Distance Talisman that he had bought at the auction. He started to activate the Long Distance Talisman. The next moment, a white light flashed, and the Man in Black Bamboo Hat disappeared from the venue!
This situation caused all the cultivators present to be dumbfounded! Because everyone was looking at the Man in Black Bamboo Hat. After all, this guy was so generous that he bought a Five Poisons Secret Book with 3.5 billion!
However, they didn't expect that this man would use the Long Distance Talisman in front of everyone and disappear directly!
Until this moment, everyone understood that this man must have planned this. Or, he didn't plan it before, but after seeing the Five Poisons Secret Book, he planned to escape!
Everyone understood the possible consequences of this thing. If someone tried to rob it after the auction, it would inevitably cause great trouble for the Man in Black Bamboo Hat! Therefore, it was better for him to leave first. In this way, no one could find him.
Although it was a little impolite for the auction host to do this, he was a big client after all. The auction wouldn't care much since he had spent 3.5 billion.
Moreover, Xiao Chen secretly guessed that someone must have secretly tipped off the Man in Black Bamboo Hat before the auction, so the Man in Black Bamboo Hat bought the Long Distance Talisman in advance. Otherwise, how could there be such a coincidence?
Of course, Xiao Chen also understood this. It was understandable for the auction host to inform potential clients who might buy this kind of collection in advance so that the client could prepare some money in advance. After all, it was good for both the client and the auction host!
The more money prepared, the more money the final auction price would be. Therefore, Xiao Chen was happier. Moreover, Xiao Chen admired the Man in Black Bamboo Hat's approach very much. He was really a talent!
In this way, it saved a lot of trouble for Xiao Chen. Everyone's attention would be on the Man in Black Bamboo Hat who had bought the Five Poisons Secret Book, and no one would care about who provided the secret book.
Even if they thought about it later, Xiao Chen had already left. Xiao Chen wanted to thank the Man in Black Bamboo Hat for making such a farce, which made him so happy.
"Well, let's continue the auction! Although it's impolite to leave midway, our auction house doesn't restrict auctioneers from leaving midway. What if they have something important to say? " Xiao Fei had to admit that it was Xiao Fei who could control the atmosphere, the Man in of the Black Bamboo Hat.
He had to admit that Xiao Fei was very good at stirring up the atmosphere. The influence of the man in the bamboo hat had completely disappeared. Everyone's attention was shifted to her. With her graceful figure and charming smile, the mood became fanatical again.
A few more items were sold at a high price. Xiao Chen was getting a little impatient from waiting. He wanted to leave after buying the Meteoric Iron from Outer Space. However, the auction was about to end, and he still hadn't appeared. He was really anxious.
"The next item is the last auction item. It is also one of the finale items!" Xiao Fei said to everyone with a smile, "I believe that many people have already guessed what it is. Yes, we have released the news of this auction item in advance. It is the Meteoric Iron!"
This Meteoric Iron was originally the first item to be auctioned in the middle of the auction. However, it was pushed down by the Five Poisons Secret Book that Xiao Chen took out at the last moment.
If Xiao Chen knew about this situation, he would probably regret it. However, he didn't know that the Five Poisons Secret Book was so important. In his opinion, how important could the thing that Xia Qili wanted be?
He didn't expect the result to be like this. However, Xia Qili's information network was not to be underestimated. Unexpectedly, she was able to inquire about this information.
However, there was no time to think about this. After all, the purpose of this trip had come. Xiao Chen wanted to focus on winning this Meteoric Iron.
"I don't need to say more about the function of the Meteoric Iron. It can be used to forge weapons for martial artists. This was very difficult in the past. However, with today's technology, smelting it is not a problem!" Xiao Fei briefly introduced the function of the Meteoric Iron. Then, she smiled and said, "The starting price of the Meteoric Iron is 50 million. Each increase must be no less than 20 million!"
"70 million!"
"100 million!"
"150 million!"
The price of the Meteoric Iron soared. Xiao Chen didn't join the bidding at the beginning because it was meaningless to do so. He didn't want to bother. So, he waited until the last moment when there were few people competing.
Of course, Xiao Chen didn't bid, but he observed secretly. Among these people who participated in the bidding, most of them were from the righteous sects. There were few people from the demonic sects. This showed that this kind of hard weapon was very important for martial arts cultivation, but demonic cultivators didn't seem to care about this.
"Brother Yang, when are we going to make our move?" Wang Chake asked in a low voice. He knew that although he had defected to Xiao Chen, he would still be the one bidding. At most, Xiao Chen would not abandon him.
However, these risky things couldn't be done by Xiao Chen and others, right? Then what was the point of defecting?
"No hurry, wait a little longer. You don't have any psychological pressure. When you finish bidding and walk out of the venue, I will disguise myself as someone else and snatch the auction item from your hands. At that time, you will not be noticed. After you go down the mountain, find a place to stay first, and I will meet you again!" Xiao Chen instructed. Then, he turned to look at Song Huawu and Xia Xibin, saying, "The few of you will go together. When the time comes, Wang Chake's things will be snatched away. Furthermore, there are many of you. No one will make things difficult for you."
Xiao Chen had already planned it. The escape method of the black man in the bamboo hat inspired him, so that people would ignore the original owner of the Five Poisons Secret Book, but it was impossible to chase the black man in the bamboo hat.
When Wang Chake auctioned the Extraterrestrial Meteoric Iron, his physical characteristics would be firmly remembered. No matter where he ran, he might encounter people who coveted it, and he would be blocked by many parties.
But if it was snatched away by Xiao Chen, it would be different. Xiao Chen would appear with a new face. Anyway, he could disguise himself as anyone. At that time, only the people nearby would see that Wang Chake was snatched away by him, and the others would not know. When he ran away, even if they wanted to chase him, these people would not be able to do anything.
Everyone nodded. Although it was risky for Xiao Chen to run away, they also knew that at this time, Xiao Chen's words were orders, and they could not be questioned. They had to follow it to be safe.
Finally, as the price soared, the people bidding gradually decreased, and there were only two left! What Xiao Chen did not expect was that it was actually the long-faced cultivator, and the smiling Maitreya from before!
These two people were sworn enemies. Once they were at each other's throats, there would be no end to it. It suddenly gave Xiao Chen a headache! At this moment, the price had soared to 500 million, which was already a high price for the Extraterrestrial Meteoric Iron.
But none of them had the intention to give up!
"600 million!" The price was still refreshing, and it was the smiling Maitreya who made the bid.
"Hmph, do what you want. 600 million it is. You just like to be a sucker!" The long-faced cultivator curled his lips and gave up bidding.
"So what?" The smiling Maitreya sneered.
"Wang Chake, make your move!" Xiao Chen said.
"620 million!" Wang Chake raised his paddle and bid.
"Huh?" The Smiling Maitreya was taken aback, and then his face became extremely gloomy. His gaze swept over Wang Chake, and he found that it was exactly where Zheng Xinxiang of the GreenStone Sect was sitting. They must be a group!
Motherf * cker, Greenrock Sect, are all your people going against me? Are you trying to get back at me? Are you deliberately raising the price? Fine, I give up. I'll let you spend 620 million to buy it. Let's see if you can afford it!
From the smiling Maitreya's point of view, Zheng Xinxiang wanted to buy the Thousand Year Purple Snow Lotus, but he gave up bidding because he did not have enough money. He was unwilling, so he pretended to leave first, and then found a friend to sit in his seat to make trouble for him!
He did not believe that such an unknown small sect could spend 620 million to buy a piece of Extraterrestrial Meteoric Iron. This was completely illogical!
The smiling Maitreya was from the Joyful Clan, so he had no use for this Extraterrestrial Meteoric Iron. Could it be used as a prop for dual cultivation? Wasn't that bullsh * t! He participated in the bidding because he saw the long-faced cultivator make a move, so he could not help but jump in to make trouble.
But now that he could cheat the Greenrock Sect, why not? So he sneered and said, "Fine, since the Greenrock Sect wants to buy it, I'll give it to you. I don't know what you're going to do when you go back. Don't tell me you want to be the Sea Stabilizer?"
Xiao Chen was stunned. At first, he did not understand why the smiling Maitreya suddenly mentioned the Greenrock Sect. But when he saw Wang Chake's seat, he immediately understood. It was Zheng Xinxiang's seat previously.
The smiling Maitreya obviously thought that Wang Chake was with Zheng Xinxiang. His words could not be said to be without poison! Even if they could not snatch the Extraterrestrial Meteoric Iron from Wang Chake in this auction, the monk could run, but the temple could not. When the time came, wouldn't it be easy to go directly to the Greenrock Sect to find him?
Xiao Chen did not expect this inadvertent action to implicate the Greenrock Sect. Fortunately, he had thought of a countermeasure beforehand. After the auction, he would snatch the Extraterrestrial Meteoric Iron from Wang Chake's hands. Otherwise, these people would really think that the Greenrock Sect had won the auction!
Smiling Tiger, you're quite good, huh? Damn it, if I don't harm you, I'll be letting down my title as a hedonistic young master. Just you wait! Xiao Chen thought to himself.
