"Zhufeng! While Wugui Kojiro isn't here, hurry up and tell me everything! "
Ling Qingfeng could not wait to ask. "You said that your auction item can prove your innocence? It's already been sold! How are you going to prove it? "
"How stupid!" Chen Xiaobei said. "The people in Apocalypse Starfield might not recognize those two Spiritual Instruments, but you don't?"
"I … I do …" Ling Qingfeng nodded. "The Ximen family's Skyfrost Sword! The Yuwen family's Flaming Demon Fan! Of course, I know them! "
Chen Xiaobei nodded. "The Ximen family controls Royal Dome's most powerful faction! The Yuwen family controls Saint Duke's most powerful faction! Don't tell me you don't know the relationship between these two families? "
"I know …" Ling Qingfeng nodded. "The Yuwen family and the Ximen family are very close! Ximen Shuoxue and Yuwen Yuanqin are even sworn brothers! "
"Since you know everything, why can't you figure it out?"
Chen Xiaobei said. "Tenshou and Royal Dome are allies! Ximen and Yuwen are family friends! If I'm really Tenshou's spy, why would I auction off the Ximen and Yuwen family's treasures? "
"I … I get it now!"
Ling Qingfeng said. "The reason why you sold the two Earth-God Instruments was because you were afraid that the Ximen and Yuwen families would cause trouble for you!"
"Those two families are from Royal Dome! A spy from Tenshou would never do something so stupid as to anger their allies! "
Ling Qingfeng said confidently. "That's why you are definitely not from Tenshou! I've misunderstood you again! "
"Mm, your IQ has finally come back online!" Chen Xiaobei nodded and smiled.
Ling Qingfeng blushed. "Then, what is your relationship with Wugui Kojiro?"
Chen Xiaobei shook his head. "My relationship with Wugui Kojiro is very special. It's hard to explain …"
Ling Qingfeng panicked. "Even if it's hard to explain, you still have to! If word of your relationship with Wugui Kojiro gets back to Saint Duke, Luo Qiongcang will never let you off! "
"The war is coming and Luo Qiongcang is on high alert. Do you think he will believe me just because I explain?" Chen Xiaobei said. "Facts speak louder than words! I won't explain it now. When the results are out, everyone will understand my intentions! "
Ling Qingfeng frowned. "If you don't explain, you'll be caught in the middle. Tenshou and Saint Duke won't let you go! That's double the danger!"
"I don't think so. Saint Duke's betrothal contest hasn't ended yet. Luo Qiongcang won't touch me for now! Tenshou wants to touch me, but I'll make the first move!"
"Attack first? What are you going to do to Tenshou? "Ling Qingfeng was shocked.
"Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed!" "This time, I'm going to set up a trap that will shock the entire Nine Zones! Just you wait and see!"
"This …" Ling Qingfeng was even more shocked than before. She could not believe her eyes.
"Childe Chen! I'm back! "
Wugui Kojiro ran back to Chen Xiaobei and handed him a storage bracelet.
"The final price of this auction is 500 million Medium Spiritual Stones!"
Wugui Kojiro explained. "According to our agreement, we have to pay the auction house a 10% commission. That's 50 million medium-grade Spiritual Stones! That's why there are only 450 million medium-grade Spiritual Stones in the storage bracelet! "
Chen Xiaobei nodded. "I understand. Other auction houses charge 20% commission. Thanks to you, I was able to get a discount."
"Childe Chen, you're too kind!" Wugui Kojiro thought for a moment. "Should we leave now? Or should we leave after we see the final item? "
"We're already at the end of the auction. Of course, we'll leave after we see it!"
Chen Xiaobei raised an eyebrow. "I'm really curious. What is it that can beat my two Earth-God Instruments?"
"I'm curious as well!" Wugui Kojiro grinned and sat down obediently.
A few minutes later, the beautiful auctioneer walked out from the backstage, followed by a servant girl who carried a tray covered with a red cloth.
"Dear distinguished guests! Next, please allow me to show you the final item of today's auction … "
The auctioneer dragged out her last syllable and pulled the red cloth away when everyone's attention was on her.
Before the red cloth was pulled away, everyone's eyes were filled with curiosity and anticipation.
But when the red cloth was pulled away, everyone's eyes were filled with disappointment and surprise.
There was an unknown metal on the tray.
Its surface was rough and covered with white rust. The metal was not complete, and there were obvious signs of cracks on the edges.
At first glance, it was just a piece of scrap metal. There was nothing special about it.
That was the main reason why everyone was disappointed and surprised.
Even Wugui Kojiro was nervous. "What the hell is Scarlet Moon Auction House doing? Using scrap metal as the final item? Isn't that ruining their own reputation? "
But now! Ling Qingfeng and Chen Xiaobei had a completely different expression on their faces.
"That … That is …" Ling Qingfeng's lips were trembling as if she had just discovered a huge secret.
Chen Xiaobei's eyes were wide open. He could not calm himself down. "What the hell is that? My Eight Trigram Qi Observation Skill can actually see a rainbow aura! "
This was the first time something like this had happened to Eight Trigram Qi Observation Skill.
Previously, when Chen Xiaobei used the skill, the most ancient and valuable items would emit a purplish-gold aura.
But now, this piece of scrap metal was emitting a rainbow aura, and there was even a hint of purplish-gold aura!
If Chen Xiaobei's guess was right, this piece of scrap metal's age and value far exceeded everything that Chen Xiaobei had observed with his Eight Trigram Qi Observation Skill!
Even if it was not a Divine Item, it was at least a Divine Item of Divine-Grade!
"I know! I'm sure everyone doesn't understand why I would use a piece of scrap metal as the final item! "
The auctioneer said, "You might not believe me! This piece of scrap metal is actually a fragment of a Divine Instrument! Legend has it that this Divine Instrument belonged to a real dragon, and it contains the secrets of the ancient dragon tribe! "
The crowd erupted into an uproar.
"That piece of scrap metal has no Spiritual Attribute at all! You're saying that it's a fragment of a Divine Instrument? Do you think we're idiots? "
"You're saying that it contains the secrets of the ancient dragon tribe? What secret is it? Make it clear! Who doesn't know how to make up a story? "
"Everyone, please disperse! Only an idiot would buy this piece of junk! "
The crowd erupted into a flurry of insults. Some of them even stood up to leave.
Suddenly, Ling Qingfeng stood up excitedly. "What's the starting bid for this item? I want to buy it! "
