Facing the divine bird's accusation, Ye Qinghan could only roll his eyes.
"Alright … this thing is still a collector's item with you. It's already not bad that you managed to sell it." Ye Qinghan helplessly consoled.
"You owe me a powerful sect!" The divine bird coldly snorted.
Ye Qinghan's mouth twitched. He was speechless.
The Revered Heaven Auction House's Chaos Giant God smiled bitterly. He didn't expect these people to be so knowledgeable. The only one who didn't was Ye Qinghan.
"The auction house has a clear conscience regarding this matter. The treasure was indeed obtained midway and there was no time to publicize it. This old man swears on the name of his ancestors that there is not a single lie. If fellow daoists are not satisfied, you can place your own bids. We all know each other well. As long as you can place a higher bid than the auction house and bring the chaos divine source to the auction house within a month, the treasure will still be yours. If you don't have enough chaos divine source after a month, the auction house will not argue with you. However, the original price of the talisman will belong to the auction house." The expert discussed.
Only then did everyone's expressions become slightly better. However, if the auction house also placed a bid, just how high would the price of this thing be?
Ye Qinghan murmured. He didn't want to sell it, but he couldn't say it out loud. If he didn't sell it, he would probably offend the auction house.
Now that the auction house had taken a step back and allowed empty bids, the auction house would at least be able to guess whether or not a sect had enough chaos divine source. Even if they did, they wouldn't be willing to take out the chaos divine source. No one dared to take the risk of offending the auction house and not buy it even if the price was too high.
"How about this? Those who are interested in participating in the auction of the talisman, please write down the highest price in your heart. The highest bidder will get it and the rest will be eliminated. This is to avoid fighting and hurting everyone's harmony. How about it? " The Revered Heaven Auction House's Chaos Giant God pondered for a moment and proposed a secret auction to reduce conflict.
"That's a good idea. I agree." The Heavenly Demon Violent Bear immediately nodded in agreement.
Ye Qinghan knew that he could not stop the auction of talisman charms from continuing. Hence, he lay back in his chair and watched the show unfold. In such a secret auction, the price was still in his favor. He only gave everyone a chance to bid once. Everyone would reveal their bottom line. The price would definitely be more than five hundred supreme-grade chaos divine roots.
Soon, those who wanted to participate in the bidding began to secretly think about the highest price they could afford. Some sects and forces also began to join forces to get the supreme treasure.
There was dead silence in the hall as everyone stared at the various private rooms. However, they ignored the fact that there was also an old man in the hall who had begun to pick up a brush. However, there was a faintly discernible aura emanating from his body that caused people's vision to blur, making it impossible to see his numbers.
Ye Qinghan was rather surprised because the energy contained within the elder's body was actually so restrained. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have noticed it at all.
He was an old man who kept a very low profile. It seemed that this person's cultivation was definitely at the level of a Giant God of Chaos. His true combat strength was very likely to be one of the strongest.
Ye Qinghan secretly muttered to himself. His gaze never left the old man.
After about an incense stick's worth of time, the Giant God of the auction house walked out from the backstage. He held a piece of parchment in his hand and looked at the crowd. "I have always been fair. Once all the parchments have been collected, I will not look at their numbers. The first thing I will announce is the auction house's price. After that, I will announce everyone's numbers. If the auction house is eliminated, we will no longer covet the Talisman Inheritance."
Whoosh whoosh whoosh — —
A golden light shot out from each of the private rooms. They were all parchments wrapped in divine power, making it impossible to see their numbers.
Lan Yao stretched out his hand and took the parchments. There were a total of eight parchments, which meant that at least eight great forces were participating in the bidding.
The old man in the hall stood up and trembled slightly. He was already past his prime. He handed the parchment to Lan Yao. The moment he turned around, everyone felt their noses tingle. It was as if they had seen the evolution of time. It was incomparably ancient.
Ye Qinghan looked at the old man's wrinkled face. It was like the bark of a tree, and his heart trembled.
Ye Qinghan could see the excitement and reverence in the old man's eyes. He really cared about this inheritance, and not its potential value.
"Could this person be a descendant of the Talisman Grandmaster?" Ye Qinghan secretly muttered to himself.
At this moment, the Giant God of the auction house opened the parchment and said in a deep voice, "The auction house's price is 835 pieces of supreme-grade chaos divine source!"
"Wow! The auction house is indeed generous! "
"800 pieces of supreme-grade chaos divine source. How many years would it take to accumulate this much?"
Everyone exclaimed. Ye Qinghan's heart was also twitching. After so many years, he had only seen two supreme-grade chaos divine sources and two ordinary divine sources. The auction house could actually take out so many chaos divine sources. One could only imagine how rich the auction house was!
In the Sage Sect's private room, Primeval Dao God looked at the auction house's Giant God and saw the numbers clearly. He couldn't help but sigh dispiritedly.
Sigh — —
Many people sighed at the same time, knowing that they didn't have a chance this time.
However, Ye Qinghan noticed a faint smile on the old man's face. He knew that the price of 835 pieces was definitely not going to win.
"The Heavenly Demon lineage's price is 795 pieces."
"The Pan lineage's price is 803 pieces."
"The Immortal Vanquishing Hall's price is 810 pieces."
"The Primitive Sage Sect's price is 600 pieces."
…
…
Lan Yao announced one by one. Up till now, the auction house was still the highest!
However, Lan Yao's expression changed at the next moment. This was because she saw a set of numbers.
"Venerable Fu Long's price is 890 pieces!"
Boom!
The auction house was in an uproar. The auction house had been eliminated by a very unfamiliar name.
The Giant God of the auction house had a slight change in expression. He looked at the old man in the main room with a grave expression.
"The highest price is Venerable Fu Long's …" Lan Yao waved her hand and froze the parchment in mid-air, allowing everyone to see it clearly. This meant that it wasn't fake.
The old man trembled slightly and was extremely emotional. Two streams of turbid tears flowed from his sunken eyes as he said hoarsely, "This old man is the successor of the Talisman Grandmaster. Even though the Talisman Grandmaster only exists in name, it still exists. The Talisman Grandmaster's supreme treasure has disappeared for countless eras. Now that it has reappeared, this old man has finally fulfilled the wishes of our ancestors.
Thank you for your help. "Ye Qinghan didn't feel that it was a pity to return the item to its rightful owner. This kind of inheritance should be in the hands of the successor and not be used to scheme for benefits.
"Fellow Daoist, the Talisman Grandmaster has disappeared for so many years. I suppose you don't have an address anymore, right? If you trust my auction house, why don't you work with us? We are willing to support your sect's reconstruction and achieve the glory of the Chaos Talisman Grandmaster. What do you think? "The Giant God of the auction house suggested immediately.
"The orthodoxy is still around. Otherwise, how could this old man take out so many Divine Chaos Sources? However, I still have to thank the auction house for allowing my sect's supreme treasure to return. If you don't mind, this old man is naturally willing to work with the auction house. I hope that this inheritance won't be broken." The old man nodded his head solemnly. He knew what the auction house wanted. Of course, they wanted the completed talisman amulets. Moreover, they wanted a lot of them. However, the early stages of the Talisman Grandmaster were very weak and their physical bodies weren't strong enough. They needed the support of a powerful force.
"Hahaha, well said. My auction house is willing to provide the Divine Chaos Sources, the protection of experts, and a portion of our territory to your sect." The Giant God of the auction house made a generous promise. This was a win-win cooperation!
"That's easy. Let's talk about it later." The old man nodded his head immediately.
Since the people of the Talisman Grandmaster had come out, the others didn't have any reason to fight for it. Hence, they all fell silent.
A day passed just like that. The auction was far from over. There were at least ten more supreme treasures that had yet to be auctioned. Everyone shook their heads and left to wait for the next day's auction.
Lan Yao kept looking at Ye Qinghan and smiled as a greeting.
Ye Qinghan nodded his head and walked towards Lan Yao. Both of them had their own thoughts.
