Lin Feng carefully sized up the mermaid and found that she looked very young.
Based on her face alone, she was probably equivalent to a sixteen or seventeen-year-old human girl.
Because mermaids had a long lifespan, they usually reached adulthood at around three hundred years old.
In other words, mermaids were around three hundred years old, which was equivalent to a sixteen-year-old human.
Lin Feng sensed the mermaid's age and found that she was around three hundred years old.
She should be a mermaid who had just reached adulthood.
…
Seeing so many people looking at her, the little mermaid was clearly frightened. Her body curled up and she trembled.
At this moment, the female auctioneer said, "Everyone! This mermaid has just reached adulthood this year. After bidding for her, she can be properly trained. Look at her figure and face. She is the best of the best. The starting price of the mermaid is one million Origin Crystals! Every increase in price! It cannot be lower than ten thousand Origin Crystals! "
Origin Crystals were extremely precious. One million Origin Crystals could support a large sect for a year.
This was only the starting price.
The final price would definitely be sky-high.
…
After hearing the starting price, many people began to discuss it.
Because the price was too high.
It was not something that ordinary people could participate in.
The number of people who could participate was actually not that many.
The female auctioneer smiled and said, "Now, everyone can bid!"
"1.1 million!"
After a brief moment of silence, someone shouted out his bid.
…
Since someone had started the bidding, soon cultivators participated in the bidding.
"1.2 million!"
"1.3 million!"
"1.4 million!"
…
"2.6 million!"
…
"3 million!"
…
The bidding price kept rising.
Soon, it reached three million Origin Crystals.
After reaching this price, many people left one after another.
Although many people were very interested in bidding for such a mermaid.
However …
Many cultivators were still rational.
When the price of the mermaid exceeded their bottom line or budget, they all withdrew from the competition.
"3.2 million!"
…
"3.5 million!"
There were still some cultivators who continued to compete.
The price of the mermaid.
It continued to rise.
"5 million!"
An old man with disheveled hair who looked like a ferocious ghost shouted eerily.
"Master of the Blissful Tower! Nalan Huai! This man was a pervert. He had established the Blissful Tower to collect beautiful women from all over the world for his pleasure! He didn't think that Nalan Huai would actually appear here. This person's financial resources were strong! It won't be easy to compete with him! "
Someone recognized the identity of the cultivator who looked like a malicious spirit.
Nalan Huai was also a famous expert in the past.
However, his reputation was extremely bad.
He used to be an elder of the Yin Yang Union Pleasure Sect, but he left the sect and established the Blissful Tower.
God knows how many women he had harmed.
Nalan Huai was indeed a rich and overbearing master. No matter how high the price other people offered, he would always offer a higher price.
The bidding price quickly rose to a sky-high price of eight million Origin Crystals.
As for the cultivators who had participated in the auction, they withdrew one after another.
"Kekekeke! It seems like this mermaid will belong to me. "
Nalan Huai let out a burst of sinister laughter.
"Hehe! Master Nalan, don't jump to conclusions so quickly. This young master hasn't made a bid yet! "
At that moment, a faint laugh was heard.
"It's Zhang Xu!"
Many people cried out in surprise when they saw the cultivator who had made the bid.
This Zhang Xu was not simple.
His grandfather was the grand elder of the Nine States Alliance.
He had a high position in the Nine States Alliance.
Zhang Xu had been talented since he was young.
Therefore, he was valued by his grandfather.
Therefore, this Zhang Xu could mobilize a large amount of funds.
"So it's Young Master Zhang! Then let's go to the highest bidder! "
Nalan Huai said sinisterly.
"Nine million! I'll take it! "
Zhang Xu said indifferently.
"Ten million!"
…
Nalan Huai had no intention of backing down. Like Zhang Xu, he directly increased the price by one million, raising the price to ten million.
"Eleven million!"
"Twelve million!"
"Thirteen million!"
"Fourteen million!"
…
Many people watched this competition in shock.
These two people were really generous.
They directly increased the price by one million.
The two of them were no longer just bidding for the mermaid.
This was a matter of face.
As the saying goes, people fight for pride, and Buddha fights for an incense stick.
The more famous a person was, the more they cared about their face.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd.
Neither Nalan Huai nor Zhang Xu could easily back out.
Not being able to bid for the mermaid was a small matter.
Losing face was a big matter.
…
The price of the two people's bids rose steadily, and soon, it reached a sky-high price of twenty million.
Nalan Huai's face sank.
The price of the mermaid had seriously exceeded his bottom line.
Zhang Xu said indifferently, "What? Is Master Nalan out of money? If so, then just withdraw! You might as well take the initiative to withdraw. In any case, we won't laugh at you! "
"Hmph! Junior, don't be so arrogant. If it weren't for your grandfather, what would you be? " Nalan Huai sneered.
"You …" Zhang Xu's face was extremely gloomy. He said coldly, "The outside world says that Master Nalan is a narrow-minded person. I didn't believe it at first, but now I do."
Nalan Huai laughed strangely and said, "Junior! I heard that someone's daughter-in-law had an affair with her husband's father and gave birth to a child. Do you know who this child is? "
"You dare to slander me?" Zhang Xu's voice became gloomy.
There were indeed rumors that Zhang Xu's grandfather wasn't actually his grandfather, but his biological father.
However, this rumor had never been proven.
Nalan Huai saw Zhang Xu's gloomy face and immediately laughed loudly. "I didn't mention any names, so Young Master Zhang, don't put yourself in my shoes. I've decided on this mermaid today. Isn't it just Origin Crystals? This Tower Lord has plenty of them! Twenty-one million! "
"Twenty-two million!" Zhang Xu suppressed the anger in his heart and continued bidding.
Soon …
The price rose to thirty million.
The two obviously had no intention of stopping.
At that moment, an impatient voice resounded in the auction house.
"How long are you going to keep raising the price by a million each time? I bid forty million Origin Crystals! Who wants to compete with me? "
…
"Raising the price by ten million each time? Isn't that a little too rich? "
Many people sucked in a breath of cold air.
Everyone's gaze turned towards the room where the voice came from. They saw a handsome young man leisurely sipping on his spiritual tea.
This handsome young master was none other than Lin Feng.
"This young master has bid forty million! Master Nalan, Young Master Zhang, do you want to continue? "
The female auctioneer asked excitedly.
The higher the price, the more commission she would get. Naturally, she was very excited to see such a rich buyer like Lin Feng.
