Ling Yun had been observing He Yuqiong for a long time. He had studied her thoroughly. If the Spirit Cleansing Stone hadn't appeared tonight, Ling Yun wouldn't have bothered with her at all.
However, when he saw He Yuqiong's eyes light up as soon as the Spirit Refinement Cosmos Stone appeared, as well as her determined gaze, he immediately knew that she was determined to get her hands on the Clear Spirit Stone!
The other party wanted the Spirit Cleansing Stone, but Ling Yun wanted the Spirit Cultivation Cosmos Stone. Even though the names were different, they were the same stone!
Ling Yun knew very well that the other party had spent thirteen billion dollars just to save one person's life. That person must be someone close to her and was extremely important to her!
Both parties were determined to get the stone, so there would be a desperate bid. Ling Yun felt that he wouldn't be able to get it without ten billion!
Obviously, no one, including Xia Houming, had high hopes for the stone. Moreover, there were very few bidders. If he spent more than ten billion to bid for the Spirit Cultivation Cosmos Stone, it would be too much of a loss!
He had missed the chance to pick up a bargain!
He could save seven to eight billion just by treating someone's illness. This was a good deal!
Moreover, Ling Yun waited until now to make his move because he had timed it right!
The auction was coming to an end. Many people were ready to leave, so there was no need for him to hide himself anymore.
Therefore, Ling Yun weighed the pros and cons and made his move decisively. He went straight to He Yuqiong!
"This …"
He Yuqiong felt dizzy and almost lost her mind. However, Ling Yun stopped pressuring her after proving himself. Therefore, she regained her consciousness immediately.
However, He Yuqiong was still hesitant. She didn't even know who the other party was or where he was. How could she make a decision in such a short time?
However, the voice quickly rang out again. "Little girl, don't worry. Think about it, if this old man wants to bid with you and use a mental attack on you like I did just now, you won't even have the chance to bid …"
"It's just that this old man is a doctor, so I'm not willing to use such despicable methods."
In VIP Room Nine, Ling Yun's handsome eyes sparkled as he stared at the slowly changing numbers on the big screen. He had a smile on his face as he patiently communicated with the other party. When he felt that it was about time, he continued, "Also, the rare herbs, Mind Cleansing Incense, Mind Nourishing Pills, and the like that you just bid on. If used on that old man of yours, the effects would be better than the Mind Cleansing Stone. In fact, many of them have already overlapped. Those things would be enough for your old man to use for five years!"
What Ling Yun said was, of course, the truth. However, he also wanted to make the other party feel regret and give up on the idea of obtaining it.
This way, if the other party really chose to bid against him, they would hesitate to make a move. Ling Yun could still save a lot of money.
"Little girl, I've said everything I need to say. If you still don't believe me, then let's have a fair competition. Sigh … What a pity … "
At the end of his sentence, Ling Yun pretended to sigh.
VIP room 13.
He Yuqiong stood rooted to the ground. After a long internal struggle, she decisively ordered, "Give up the bid!"
Ling Yun's mind suddenly relaxed!
"Very good, a very wise choice. This old man can guarantee that your family will be saved!"
He first communicated with He Yuqiong to let her know that he was still there. Then, Ling Yun immediately sent a telepathic message to He Yuqiong for her to bid!
"Three billion!"
Number 958 made its move again!
"This …"
He Yuqiong was a little shocked. She thought to herself that she was not going to bid, but the woman on the first floor had made a move. Wouldn't that self-proclaimed miracle doctor still have to bid for it?
He Yuqiong immediately wanted to communicate with the person just now and ask the mysterious old man if he wanted her to buy it for him first and then give it to him as a greeting gift. However, when she looked around, she realized that she had no way of contacting him at all.
"Sigh, what a pity … This way, I've made a profit …"
That was because Ling Yun had said that as long as He Yuqiong did not compete, he would personally treat her family. She had given up, but someone else had jumped out, and it was the most eye-catching number tonight!
He Yuqiong looked at the three billion bid on the big screen and stomped her feet anxiously. She was thinking about how the old man would bid to defeat his opponent.
At the same time, she really wanted to know which number had told her to give up just now. That way, it would be easier for her to find the person after the auction ended.
Even though what Ling Yun had said to her just now was very reasonable, she was still gambling. She was worried.
Forty seconds passed. Another five seconds passed …
Only ten seconds left …
"Three billion going once, three billion going twice, three billion going …"
At this moment, He Yuqiong's heart was in her throat. She thought to herself that the old man should have made his move in the last five seconds. He was indeed very good at psychological warfare …
"Third time! Congratulations to number 958, you have successfully won this Spirit Cleansing Stone with a bid of three billion! "
Xia Houming continued after the hammer fell. "Same old rules. This auction item will be 10% off for number 958!"
Everyone was shocked. Five shots, five hits! Five shots, five successful bids! Moreover, they were all treasures that were auctioned at the same time!
Even Xia Houming hadn't seen such a heaven-defying situation in many years, let alone others!
Seeing Xia Houming's hammer fall on the big screen, He Yuqiong only felt a buzz in her head. Her face turned pale, and her body shook violently!
He Yuqiong's first reaction was that she had been cheated!
She had lost the bet!
There was no old man, it was someone arranged by number 958 to trick her!
He Yuqiong was extremely smart. After she understood this, she gritted her teeth in hatred and almost went crazy!
That was because that number 958 had successfully crushed her twice tonight. In the end, he had tricked her again!
"My He Family relies on gambling. We have always understood people's hearts! I didn't expect to fail miserably this time! I was actually tricked by a few simple words! "
He Yuqiong had never suffered such a huge loss before. She gritted her teeth so hard that they almost broke. She ran to the VIP room to find that detestable number 958.
"Hmph, don't even think about tricking me!" He Yuqiong stared at the calm masked woman in the spotlight. She thought to herself, "I lost to you two times because I'm not as good as you. You can step on me if you want. But this time, don't blame me for being cruel and merciless when you play such a dirty trick!"
Thinking of this, He Yuqiong did not hesitate. She immediately took out her communication device and contacted one of the leaders in VIP room 17.
The three of them had come with her. They were there to protect her and to monitor her. However, He Yuqiong knew that as long as she gave them the purple chalcedony later, it would not be a problem for them to help her once.
"After the auction ends, I will give you the purple chalcedony immediately. But I have a condition. Please help me keep an eye on someone, that number 958."
"Happy to help! She will definitely die. "
In VIP room 17, the leader didn't reply to the message on the communication device. Instead, he sent his voice directly to He Yuqiong's ears.
After the telepathic transmission, the three people from the Nanyang Rogue Cultivators Alliance looked at each other and smiled at the same time. The light in their eyes was as frightening as it could be.
"Haha, the little girl can't control her temper. She's really angry … Sigh, I can't be bothered to talk to you now. Just stay depressed for a while."
Ling Yun didn't reply to He Yuqiong after the successful bid. However, he had enveloped her with his divine sense. Even the contents of He Yuqiong's communication device were clear to him.
However, he couldn't be bothered because it was normal for the other party to think that way.
Of course, he didn't have to lie to He Yuqiong. It was just that it was difficult for him to explain himself at the moment. He could only let her misunderstand for a while.
At this moment, the last item of the auction was finally brought to the stage!
Xia Houming suddenly became very excited, and he became impassioned, which was rare for him. "Attention everyone, the next item we will be auctioning is the finale of this auction!"
The finale was about to begin!
"Middle-grade spiritual weapon, a supreme-grade flying sword. This flying sword is from the Shushan Sword Sect. As long as you have innate divine sense, you can drip your blood on it and use it in battle!"
"Wow …"
As soon as Xia Houming's voice fell, the entire auction hall was in an uproar. Almost everyone, including the people from Two Floors, stood up!
Middle-grade spiritual weapon! A supreme-grade flying sword! From the Shushan Sword Sect!
Any one of these three conditions could shock everyone present, let alone all of them!
Everyone went crazy. Countless people squeezed forward. To most of them, such a treasure had only been heard of in legends. Now that they had the chance to see it with their own eyes, they naturally wanted to take another look.
There was only one exception, and that was naturally Ling Yun.
"Hehe, no wonder the Ye Family was willing to auction the Innate Sword Embryo at midnight …"
"No wonder Xia Houming wasn't interested in the Spirit Cleansing Stone just now …"
Ling Yun wasn't even interested in the flying sword. He only said leisurely, "It seems like the Ye Family spent so much effort to organize such a grand auction not just for connections, resources, information, and profits!"
"There's also prestige!"
Ling Yun's eyes glinted as he thought to himself, Ye Family, oh Ye Family, so you invited me here with this hidden motive!
Auctioning the supreme-grade flying sword and letting thousands of people speculate about the relationship between the Ye Family and the Shushan Sword Sect was, of course, to raise the Ye Family's prestige. However, to Ling Yun and the Ling Family, who were rapidly rising and had already announced their strength, the Ye Family's actions were obviously a show of force.
"It's a pity that you've used this trick on the wrong person!"
Ling Yun sneered. What was a middle-grade spiritual weapon? As long as he had the Innate Sword Embryo, Ling Yun would be able to turn the Clear Shadow Flying Sword into a supreme-grade spiritual weapon!
Moreover, in the near future, he would be able to let the Yin Yang Gang Qi Sword have a real sword body and forge his own Natal Flying Sword. That would be a real treasured weapon.
Ling Yun was about to have two flying swords, one a supreme-grade spiritual weapon and the other a treasured weapon. Why would he still be interested in a middle-grade spiritual weapon?
Therefore, when he saw the supreme-grade flying sword, Ling Yun only took a glance at it before retracting his divine sense. He had already started planning for his actions after the auction.
… …
Old Bu had always wanted to write an auction, and he had been preparing for it for a long time. For the Ye Family's auction, Old Bu had written an average of more than ten thousand words a day. Finally, he had finished writing to his heart's content. At the very least, he felt good about himself. He hoped that everyone would be satisfied. If there were any inadequacies, he hoped that everyone would correct him.
