Everyone looked at Yue Qianchou at the same time. He was the one who said it, and he was the one who said it. Naturally, they wanted to see his reaction. After all, no one knew if it was true or false, and it was all his words. If he made a bid, it was likely that he was bluffing everyone.
Yue Qianchou closed his eyes to rest, and there was silence on the stage. Wu Tai, who was on the stage, sighed silently. A good deal was messed up by the number one buyer again. After letting their imaginations run wild, many of them suspected that Yue Qianchou might really be out of money, and he might be messing things up on purpose. Thus, someone shouted, "Three million!"
When someone shouted, everyone came to a realization. Firstly, this Seven Star Blood Orchid was unquestionable. Anyway, it was something that was bought to claim credit. As for what kind of flower or fruit it would bear, it didn't matter. Did he really expect to get a share of the 'Seven Orifices Exquisite Elixir'? Who cares, as long as the elders of the faction were happy, it would be a great merit.
"Three million and one hundred thousand!" Someone immediately followed.
"Three million and two hundred thousand … Three million and five hundred thousand … Four million …" Suddenly, the shouts came one after another, and the price kept rising. On the stage, Wu Tai's bitter face gradually turned into a smile.
Bi Zicong and the others looked at the indifferent Yue Qianchou and thought that he really ran out of money. Otherwise, he would inevitably interfere. Wu Lixue had the same thoughts as her brothers and immediately let out a sigh of relief. She held the plate in her hand casually and looked around to watch the bustling scene. At this moment, she recalled that the Wu Clan would take a 20% commission from the auction. Naturally, she hoped that the price would be as high as possible. Her big eyes kept looking around!
Listening to the rising price, Yue Qianchou noticed that Wu Lixue's body was twisting around to watch the bustling scene. He opened his eyes and sized her up casually. From her completely different attitude, he roughly understood her thoughts. The phrase 'big breasts and no brains' floated in his mind. Yue Qianchou smiled and closed his eyes again. This is great! The more unexpected it is, the more shocking it will be! Only then would the four great families value him more. Money is a son of a b * tch. It is spent on the edge of a knife. I don't feel bad about it! He comforted himself again in his heart.
Once the price passed 5 million, the continuous bidding suddenly decreased by half. The remaining people were probably from the top sects in the cultivation world. Dongfang Chang 'ao of Fuxian Island and Qiu Wuyuan of Ten Thousand Demons were also watching coldly from the sidelines. Both of them were determined to get the Seven Star Blood Orchid. However, it seemed that there were still a lot of people bidding for it. At the same time, they were the number one cultivators of both the righteous and demonic sects, so they didn't join in the fun for the time being. Both of them were prepared to be the oriole behind the mantis stalking the cicada. However, he didn't know if the two of them were the orioles, or if an eagle or other birds of prey would appear!
When the price reached eight million, there were less than ten people who were still bidding. Wu Tai, the host of the auction, regained his confident smile and calmly watched everyone compete with each other. When the price exceeded the bottom line of nine million, there were a few people left. The remaining five people took turns and raised the price to ten million! Then, two people stopped bidding. Perhaps this price had reached their bottom line. Perhaps they were considering conserving their strength for the remaining four treasures. It seemed that the latter was more likely. If they didn't even have ten million upper grade spirit stones, how could they buy the real good things?
"13 million!" Once this price was out, the situation of the three parties immediately became the dominant one. The whole place was silent. After a while, it was still the same. It seemed that the winner and the loser had been decided. Wu Tai shouted with satisfaction, "This gentleman has bid 13 million upper grade spirit stones. Is there anyone else who wants to increase the price?" He didn't forget to glance at the number one buyer who had bid in every round. Everyone looked around and didn't forget to look at him. Seeing that the number one buyer seemed to be asleep, they thought to themselves, "As expected, he has no money. Everyone was fooled by his generosity in the previous rounds."
Many people silently calculated the total value of the three rounds of bidding and came to the conclusion that he didn't even have ten million. They couldn't help but despise his act of pretending to be rich in their hearts. Only Bi Zicong and the rest, as well as the Wu clansmen who knew the truth, didn't think this way. Yue Qianchou was different from the others. The others represented the financial resources of the various sects, but Yue Qianchou represented his personal financial resources. How many people in the cultivation world could take out more than eight million upper grade spirit stones privately? Moreover, it was the highest grade spirit stones!
Yue Qianchou sneered in his heart. The two people who could casually bid six to seven million to tease me still haven't made a sound! I don't believe that they don't have money.
"This gentleman has bid 13 million upper grade spirit stones. Is there anyone else who wants to increase the price?" Wu Tai asked again. If no one responded to the price after three times, the Seven Star Blood Orchid would be returned to its owner.
"14 million!" Just when everyone thought that the outcome was set, someone suddenly increased the price. It wasn't anyone else but Qiu Wuyuan of Ten Thousand Demons. Yue Qianchou's heart moved. Here it comes!
"14 million and one hundred thousand!" The previous person increased the price by another hundred thousand, but it could be heard that his voice was a little reluctant.
"15 million!" Qiu Wuyuan increased the price again. That person was instantly speechless. The crowd couldn't help but click their tongues. There's always a higher mountain!
The crowd quietened down again. Wu Tai looked at the crowd and said in a clear voice, "This person has bid 15 million. Is there anyone else who wants to increase the price?"
"16 million!" Dongfang Chang 'ao made a move. He had no choice but to bid because many of the old consecrators in Fu Xian Island's Heaven Will Pavilion were extremely old and close to the end of their lifespans. They needed the Seven Star Blood Orchid more than other sects. It didn't matter if it was as Buyer No. 1 said. Since this legendary item had appeared, he had to try his best to obtain it. Otherwise, it would be hard for him to face the elders of Fu Xian Island when he returned.
Yue Qianchou's eyes suddenly opened wide. Hehe! Finally, he appeared!
Qiu Wuyuan looked at Dongfang Chang 'ao. He was almost certain that this person was the representative of Fu Xian Island. He increased the price again and said, "17 million!"
"18 million!" Dongfang Chang 'ao increased the price again. He also started to suspect that the other party was from Ten Thousand Demons.
"19 million!" Qiu Wuyuan gritted his teeth and continued to chase. He had no choice. Ten Thousand Demons might not have as many people close to the end of their lifespans as compared to Fu Xian Island, but there were still a lot of them.
"20 million!" When Dongfang Chang 'ao said this price, the audience was shocked. It was only the sixth treasure, and they were able to take out so much money. If these two people weren't from Fu Xian Island and Ten Thousand Demons, then they must have seen a ghost. Perhaps it was because the onlookers had a clear view of the situation, they immediately guessed the origin of these two people.
Yue Qianchou was also muttering. Could these two b * stards be from Fu Xian Island and Ten Thousand Demons? Fu Xian Island … Damn it! Who cares! You dare to cheat me? I don't care where you are from!
"21 million!" Qiu Wuyuan increased the price again. Actually, this Blood Orchid was already his bottom line at 20 million. However, when he thought that the other party was from Fu Xian Island and Ten Thousand Demons, he decided to increase the price no matter what. Even if the other party took it in the end, he had to make the other party pay more. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to take it lying down.
"22 million!" Dongfang Chang 'ao didn't think as much as Qiu Wuyuan. He only knew that he wouldn't give up unless the item was worth 25 million. Of course, Fu Xian Island's strong financial strength was also an important reason for him to do this.
"23 million!" This was Qiu Wuyuan's last bid. After he finished shouting, he suddenly felt a lot more relaxed. Success or failure depended on this bid. He had already tried his best. He believed that the old ancestors of the Myriad Demons Palace wouldn't blame him if they found out.
"24 million!" Dongfang Chang 'ao also made his last bid. If the other party increased the price to 2,500, he would give up. Going too far was as bad as not going far enough!
Silence! The other person didn't speak anymore. Could it be that the winner had been decided? Everyone's heart was beating fast. They didn't expect this Blood Orchid to be sold at such a sky-high price. It seemed to be even higher than the price of the finale treasure in the previous grand auction! Fu Xian Island and Ten Thousand Demons were indeed rich and overbearing!
Unexpected! Too unexpected! On the stage, Wu Tai's heart was also beating fast. Even Wu Sihai, who was in the dark room, didn't expect the Seven Star Blood Orchid to be so valuable. It was far beyond everyone's expectations. Yue Qianchou, on the other hand, was pondering. From the looks of it, it wasn't a loss to buy it at such a high price. Presumably, after buying it, I would breed some and sell it. I would definitely be able to earn back my capital with interest. Good stuff, good stuff. Not bad! Not bad!
Seeing that no one was bidding anymore, Wu Tai said excitedly, "Seven Star Blood Orchid, buyer number 3 bids 24 million high-grade spirit stones. Anyone else?"
