Hidden Art Loft, auction venue!
The higher the bid for the Dao Comprehension Stone, the better it was for the auction house. Not only would the final commission be higher, but it would also increase the reputation of the auction house.
However, as he watched the bidding price continue to rise, Feng Yun even had the thought of killing himself!
Not only were there more and more people bidding for the Dao Comprehension Stone, but there were also a few people that the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion could not afford to offend.
In the event that the Enlightenment Stone was bought by a few people who couldn't be offended at a sky-high price, only to find out that the Enlightenment Stone was only worth two to three million, they would definitely be angered by the auction house and implicate the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion.
At this moment, Feng Yun wanted to charge into private room 71 and question the owner of private room 71. Why did he expose the identity of the owner of private room 3?
But if he wanted to protect the reputation of the auction house, he could not do that. He could only think of a way to deal with this crisis.
"45 million level-eight, first-grade Spirit Stones!"
Even though the auction had been going on for so long, a voice suddenly rang out from VIP room 1, which had never participated in the auction. Not only did the entire place fall silent, Feng Yun could not help but shiver. He knew that the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion had truly offended a faction that they absolutely could not afford to offend.
Feng Yun took a deep breath and rubbed his nose again. This time, his pinky was slightly bent.
"50 million level-eight, first-grade Spirit Stones."
Just as Feng Yun rubbed his nose and bent his pinky, another bid came from private room 40.
How could he avoid offending the owner of private room 1? The only way was to spend a higher price for the Dao Comprehension Stone and not let the owner of private room 1 discover the abnormality of the Dao Comprehension Stone?
As for the conflict with private room 1 over the Dao Comprehension Stone, he could easily find a scapegoat and cover it up.
Hearing the bid from private room 1, Yu Haoran could not help but laugh happily.
Then, he continued to bid for the Dao Comprehension Stone for the second time.
"55 million level-eight, first-grade Spirit Stones!"
Yu Haoran's sudden bid almost made the owner of private room 40 choke. This was because he also planned to bid 55 million Spirit Stones.
But after Yu Haoran beat him to it, he could only bid 60 million Spirit Stones. Because this was the only way to make the person in Room 1 give up on bidding.
However, no one would have thought that the owner of Private Room 1 seemed to have set his sights on the Dao Enlightenment Stone and directly offered a price of 70,000,000 Spirit Stones.
At this time, Yu Haoran leaned back in his chair with a relaxed expression. He no longer participated in the bidding for the enlightenment stone. If he continued to participate, not only would he offend the owner of VIP Room 1, but he might also accidentally win the Enlightenment Stone.
"Eighty million eighth-tier, first-grade spirit stones!"
In order to completely intimidate the owner of Private Room 1 and to reduce the losses of the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion, Feng Yun directly raised the price of Private Room 40 by ten million Spirit Stones under his various gestures.
"Ninth Sister, stop shouting!"
In private room number one, a young man of about 30 years of age asked a young lady of about 16 years of age in a purple dress with a bitter smile on his face.
"Even if that Dao Comprehension Stone can help increase the power of comprehension of a peak ninth grade Martial Saint, it is definitely not worth eighty million spirit stones."
"Moreover, if the Dao Comprehension Stone can really help increase the power of a peak ninth grade Martial Saint, with the intelligence of the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion's owner, she definitely wouldn't take the initiative to auction it off."
"Third Brother, don't try to persuade me. Even if this Dao Comprehension Stone is just an ordinary stone in the end, I will still bid for it today."
Faced with the young man's earnest persuasion, the young lady's tone was indignant.
"Because I can't take this lying down."
Then, without giving the young man any chance to persuade her, she directly called out a sky-high price.
"One hundred million eighth-tier, first-grade spirit stones!"
As the price of one hundred million Spirit Stones came out from Private Room 1, Feng Yun, who was on the stage, almost cried out.
Yu Haoran was even more shocked and opened his mouth wide.
Then, he couldn't help but shake his head with a bitter smile.
In his previous life, the Dao Comprehension Stone was eventually bought by a guest in private room 53 for a price of thirty-eight million Spirit Stones.
However, he had purposely revealed the identity of the owner of Private Room 3. Not only did the owner of Private Room 1 make a move, but the price also rose to one hundred million Spirit Stones. Yu Haoran knew that while he succeeded in his revenge, he had forcefully changed the trajectory of his future development.
Regarding this, he felt deeply helpless!
Faced with the sky-high price of one hundred million Spirit Stones, the owner of Private Room 40 didn't immediately bid. Instead, he looked at Feng Yun through the transparent glass.
One hundred million Spirit Stones!
One hundred million eighth-tier, first-grade spirit stones. After a year of meticulous preparation for this auction, with the commission from the auction at the end of the auction, this auction's profit would be three hundred to five hundred million Spirit Stones at most.
Just to curry favor with an ordinary Yuxu Temple elder, he had directly lost one hundred million eighth-tier, first-grade spirit stones. Feng Yun's heart wasn't as simple as bleeding right now.
If time could stop, and if a knife was placed in front of him, the first person he would want to cut to pieces would be the Yuxu Temple elder Liu Guangyuan. The second person he would want to execute would be Yu Haoran.
However, this was just a beautiful wish that couldn't be realized.
Moreover, what he urgently needed to do now was to signal Private Room 40 to continue raising the price to avoid further offending the owner of Private Room 1.
"One hundred and ten thousand eighth-tier, first-grade spirit stones!"
Raising the price was one thing, but in order to avoid further losses, Feng Yun signaled for the owner of Private Room 40 to raise the price by ten thousand.
"Aiya, how dare you compete with me!"
The owner of Private Room 40 had actually dared to raise the price even though she had already bid one hundred million Spirit Stones. What was even more despicable was that the owner of Private Room 1 had only raised the price by ten thousand Spirit Stones.
However, when she considered her own reserves of spirit stones, she hurriedly asked the young man for help.
"Third Brother, lend me one or two hundred million Spirit Stones. After this, I will ask my mother to return them to you."
"Stop fooling around, Ninth Sister. Don't you see?"
The young man, who had always doted on the young girl, criticized her sternly.
"The owner of Private Room 40 is actually an agent of the Sky Fragrance Pavilion. The reason he is bidding with you is because he doesn't want you to lose out.
If you continue to fool around, I will take you back to the Imperial Palace now. "
"Forget it!"
Actually, it wasn't that the young girl didn't understand what was going on. She was just uncomfortable with the feeling of being suppressed. Her only motive was to fight for her dignity.
Now that she saw that her third brother was really angry, she knew that he wasn't joking when he threatened her. In the end, she could only shut her mouth obediently.
"One hundred and ten thousand eighth-tier, first-grade spirit stones, going once!"
After waiting for about a minute, Private Room 1 stopped bidding and Feng Yun hurriedly started the countdown.
"One hundred and ten thousand eighth-tier, first-grade spirit stones, going twice!"
"One hundred and ten thousand eighth-tier, first-grade spirit stones, going thrice!"
After announcing the countdown in five seconds, Feng Yun waved his hand and shouted at Private Room 40.
