"One thousand five hundred. I want to have a taste of being a disciple of a sect."
A man in black shouted with his hoarse voice. He was the first to bid. He was an independent martial artist without the support of his family. He couldn't enter a sect. Relying on his own hard work, he made a name for himself. He had some spare money, so he planned to get a sect jade to wear and experience being a favored disciple of a sect.
"Twenty yellow crystals. I want to have a taste of being a disciple of a sect."
The second bidder was a woman. She was old but still attractive. She was pretty, but her speech was a bit rough. She was slightly better than the man in black. Her family conditions were not bad. But because she didn't have enough talent, she couldn't enter a sect. With the support of her family and her own efforts, she had a little status now. She also planned to get a sect jade to wear and experience being a favored disciple of a sect. Or she could just buy it and give it to a handsome man, as long as it could make her happy.
"Two thousand five hundred. Don't fight with me."
The third bidder was an old man. He was one of the famous four evildoers of Rong Tian Country. He was also an independent martial artist. His early life was more difficult than the man in black. His whole family was killed by his enemies. He was the only one left alive. One of his eyes was blind, and one of his arms was broken. With such a disabled body, he managed to reach the level of Qi Realm. So when he spoke, the two people in front of him didn't dare to say anything. Even the people in the back who wanted to bid were silent.
The Crippled Zen Master, one of the four evildoers. It was said that he dared to kill people from the city defense team. He was wanted by the Wangfu, but they couldn't catch him. Today, he came to the auction house. The Situ Clan's Merchant Union was so monstrous that no one was allowed to enter the auction house to capture even a wanted criminal. As long as one entered the auction house, he or she was a guest.
The origin of the Hongyu Merchant Union was said to be related to the ancestor of the Situ family, Situ Yu. But no one knew how the word "Hong" came about. The only thing they could guess was that this person was more powerful than Situ Yu. No one dared to provoke this kind of family that had been standing for thousands of years.
Duan Qingwu didn't rush to make a move. He knew that it was useless to make a move too early. When the price reached 2,500 White Crystals, there was a small silence. Seeing that his chance had come, he quickly called out a price.
"Forty yellow crystals!"
Duan Qingwu had thrown caution to the wind. He increased the bid by 1,500 in one go, and he even used yellow crystals to bid. He was planning to intimidate the others with his imposing manner. After all, the rich people in the VIP rooms wouldn't come to snatch things like the Legacy Jade Pendant, and the people in the hall weren't that competitive.
Forty Yellow Crystals was equivalent to four thousand White Crystals, which was not a small number. Even the Crippled Zen Master didn't want to add any more. Those who earned money by fighting and killing all knew that money wasn't easy to come by. In the end, they weren't as extravagant as those from the aristocratic families and sects.
"You're courting death!"
The Crippled Zen Master glared at Duan Qingwu, trying to regain his dignity. Of course, in the auction house, he could only get it back with his mouth. If he dared to make a move here, he could guarantee that his other eye and arm would disappear as well.
In fact, Duan Qingwu was not afraid of him. He was a dignified young master of an aristocratic family and a disciple of the Snow Mountain Sect. Why would he be afraid of a gangster? However, in order to not expose his identity, he didn't wear the clothes of a sect disciple. Although the Crippled Zen Master was shouting, after his bid of 40 yellow crystals, the hall fell into silence again. Most of them probably didn't lack money, but they didn't want to offend the people of their sects just to get the Legacy Jade Pendant.
"45 yellow crystals."
Just when Yang Yiyi started counting down and Duan Qingwu thought that he was going to get it, the person in VIP room number seven suddenly increased the bid. He increased the price by five Yellow Crystals straight away, without a single word of nonsense.
"50 yellow crystals."
Duan Qingwu originally wanted to increase the bid, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was too much. After all, 50 yellow crystals was already very high. If he increased the bid further, he would have to be careful. If the other party's limit was 50 yellow crystals, then he would have succeeded.
"60 yellow crystals. If you can't afford it, then don't embarrass yourself here."
It was still the person in the VIP room who made the bid. He directly increased the bid by ten yellow crystals, and this time, he added a sarcastic remark. It seemed like he was mocking Duan Qingwu for pretending to be rich despite being a pauper.
"Friend, don't tell me that item belongs to you?"
Seeing the person in VIP room number seven increase the bid so fiercely, everyone started to guess his identity. Since he was able to sit in the VIP room and cared so much about the Legacy Jade Pendant, he was probably from a big sect. Every bid was measured in yellow crystals, and he had just won the wingsuit. He was probably a disciple of a sect or the descendant of an elder. Perhaps he was the one who lost the Legacy Jade Pendant.
In fact, everyone had it all wrong. They thought that Du Feng was a disciple of a sect and that he was the one who lost the pendant. It was true that he had consigned the Legacy Jade Pendant for sale, but the person who lost the jade pendant was on the verge of crying in the auction hall.
If he couldn't get the Legacy Jade Pendant back, his grandfather would definitely skin him alive. The news of the Legacy Jade Pendant being auctioned this time would probably reach his grandfather's ears soon. If he could get it back, then everything would be fine, but if he couldn't, then it would be troublesome.
Before Duan Qingwu left, he had borrowed a lot of money from his mother so that he could get the Legacy Jade Pendant at the auction. He didn't expect the person in VIP room number seven to target him like this. He had already made up his mind. No matter who the other party was, he would definitely teach him a lesson. If necessary, he could use the Blood Wolf Squad. They were a group of loyal death squads.
"70 yellow crystals. If it's not yours, then don't pretend to be it."
Duan Qingwu increased the bid to 70 yellow crystals. He didn't forget to take revenge and mock the person in VIP room number seven. That item obviously belonged to him, but he dared to pretend to be it. Could it be that the disciple of another sect had a grudge against him?
Du Feng was indeed pretending. Duan Qingwu wasn't the only one who knew about it. In fact, there was another person who knew about it, and that was Du Xue, who was also a disciple of the Snow Mountain Sect. Not only did she know Duan Qingwu, but she also personally accepted the consignment task from Du Feng.
