To make Hongyan smile
When Chang Mingyang made a bid, all the martial artists in the auction house were surprised.
The Light Illusory Dual Swords was a set of dual swords. The blade was delicate and pretty, and was more suitable for agile swordsmen. Chang Mingyang, on the other hand, was known for his swift sword. He could break through the void with one strike and kill people in the blink of an eye. The two were not suitable at all.
"Senior Brother Chang, the highest value of this set of Light Illusion Dual Swords is five hundred and fifty thousand Spirit Stones. Isn't it a little hasty for you to bid directly?" Qin Kong was also a little doubtful and said resentfully.
"Little Sister Qingxuan's Wu Ling is a perfect match for the Light Illusion Twin Swords. In order to win a smile from a beauty, a mere five hundred and fifty thousand spirit stones are nothing." Chang Mingyang's tone was casual, as if he didn't care about five hundred and fifty thousand spirit stones at all.
The moment he heard the two words Qingxuan, Qin Kong immediately shut his mouth and did not ask anymore.
This woman's real name was Lu Qingxuan, and she was a true disciple of Wanjian Pavilion.
Her talent in the Way of the Sword was very high. The moment she entered the sect, she was taken in by Chang Chixiao as his last disciple. More importantly, Lu Qingxuan was extremely beautiful. Even when compared to Xia Qingcheng, she did not lose out.
Chang Mingyang was Chang Chixiao's son. He was naturally extremely familiar with Lu Qingxuan and had long since harbored feelings for her.
This time, he wanted to buy the Light Illusion Twin Swords. Obviously, he wanted to give them to Lu Qingxuan and win her favor.
After all, Chang Mingyang had plundered all the resources of the Soaring Cloud Chamber of Commerce. He had millions of Spiritual Stones in his pocket. 550,000 Spiritual Stones was nothing to him.
In the opposite VIP room, Xia Qingcheng's expression was a little ugly.
Long before the auction began, she had her eyes on the Light Illusion Twin Swords. If she could purchase them, she would be able to make it to the top ten in the Sword Cleansing Trial and enter the Sword Cleansing Pool.
However, she never expected that Chang Mingyang would actually compete with her for the sword, and increase the price by fifty thousand Spiritual Stones.
Xia Qingcheng took a deep breath and said, "Five hundred and sixty thousand spirit stones!"
"Five hundred and seventy thousand spirit stones."
Without any hesitation, Chang Mingyang made another bid.
Five hundred and seventy thousand Spirit Stones was much higher than the original value of the Light Illusory Twin Swords. Those martial artists who weren't interested in the sword directly chose to give up.
Xia Qingcheng clenched her fists and bid, "600,000 spirit stones!"
This price stunned all the cultivators in the auction house. They all raised their heads and stared at Xia Qingcheng's beautiful face.
"I remember that Princess Qingcheng's Wu Ling is a Double-winged Illusionary Butterfly, which is a perfect match for this Light Illusionary Twin Swords. She must have bought this sword to get into the top ten."
"600,000 spirit stones is already a huge sum of money. Even to the Grand Xia Empire, this amount cannot be underestimated. This time around, she must have made up her mind to purchase the Ethereal Twin Swords no matter what."
"But the person bidding against her is Chang Mingyang. This is going to be a good show."
Chaotic discussions rang out, causing Chang Mingyang's eyes to turn cold. He raised his eyebrows and said in a low voice, "Although the Light Illusory Twin Swords are suitable for Princess Qingcheng, I know a beauty who is also suitable for this sword. No matter who bids, I will not give up this sword."
As he spoke, he waved his hand and said indifferently, "650,000 spirit stones."
Boom!
All the cultivators in the auction house were shocked by this price.
At the same time, everyone could feel Chang Mingyang's determination. Just as he said, no matter who bid, he would not give up the Light Illusory Twin Swords, even if the other party was Xia Qingcheng.
Xia Qingcheng clenched her jade-like hands. Because she used too much strength, her joints turned a little white. Her face twitched slightly and she was very unwilling to give up. Her breathing also became more rapid.
This time, she came only for the Light Illusory Twin Swords.
But judging from the current situation, this set of twin swords that she yearned for in her dreams was probably going to be impossible.
"Maybe I am not fated with the Light Illusory Twin Swords." Xia Qingcheng comforted herself in her heart. She raised her head and heard a familiar voice. The voice was neither fast nor slow. "I bid 1,000,000 spirit stones."
Silence.
The huge palace seemed to have fallen into the dead of night. There was not a trace of sound. It was completely silent.
They subconsciously thought that they had heard wrong. Someone actually bid 1,000,000 spirit stones for the Light Illusory Twin Swords, a one-patterned King Weapon. This price was more than enough to buy a double-patterned King Weapon.
Hearing this price, Chang Mingyang suddenly stood up. His eyes were filled with cold light as he directly landed on Chu Xingyun.
The person who had just bid was him.
At this time, Xia Qingcheng finally regained her senses. She looked at Chu Xingyun in astonishment and asked, "Mr. Luo, could it be that you also want the Light Illusory Twin Swords?"
"The Light Illusory Twin Swords are good, but they don't suit me." Chu Xingyun shook his head and chuckled. "I saw that you liked this set of Light Illusory Twin Swords so much, so I was prepared to buy it and give it to you as a gift."
"Give it to me?" Xia Qingcheng was shocked.
But soon, she shook her head. "This sword is too valuable. I can't accept it. Moreover, 1,000,000 spirit stones is not a small sum. You don't have to spend so much money for me."
"I've always owed you a favor for the Sword Stele. Also, because of me, you've suffered a lot of rumors. Take this set of Light Illusory Twin Swords as my compensation to you," Chu Xingyun replied casually.
"Isn't this compensation a little too much?!"
Xia Qingcheng smiled bitterly. Just as she was about to decline, she saw Chu Xingyun staring into her eyes. His pitch-black eyes were filled with determination. "Princess Qingcheng, please don't decline my goodwill."
Buzz!
Xia Qingcheng felt as if her mind was drawn into a whirlpool. Her heart was beating extremely fast. She nodded unexpectedly and did not reject Chu Xingyun.
Her face was dyed with a blush like a blooming flower. Everyone was in a daze. They were completely mesmerized by this touching scene and could not control themselves for a long time.
"This guy is using me as a stepping stone to please Xia Qingcheng?" Chang Mingyang stared coldly at Chu Xingyun and immediately bid, "1,100,000 spirit stones."
Chu Xingyun did not look at Chang Mingyang. He raised his arm and said casually, "2,000,000 spirit stones."
Rumble!
The entire auction house seemed to be about to explode.
Chu Xingyun's bid was too shocking.
Chang Mingyang had only bid 1,100,000 spirit stones, but he directly bid 2,000,000 spirit stones without hesitation. It was almost twice the price!
"Are you out of your mind?"
Chang Mingyang could not hold it in any longer and shouted, "This set of Light Illusion Dual Swords is only a one-line King Weapon. The highest price is not more than 600,000 spirit stones. You actually bid 2,000,000 spirit stones?"
2,000,000 spirit stones was too terrifying. Even Chang Mingyang felt his heart ache. In his opinion, Chu Xingyun was completely crazy.
"You're buying this set of Light Illusion Dual Swords to please her and win her smile. Since that's the case, why can't I do the same?" Chu Xingyun shrugged and said with a faint smile, "I must give this sword to Princess Qingcheng. No matter who bids, I won't give it up."
The familiar words fell into Chang Mingyang's ears word for word, causing him to feel an unbearable heat on his face. Anger surged into his five viscera and six bowels, causing him to be furious to the extreme.
"Senior Brother Chang, a set of Light Illusion Dual Swords is not worth 2,000,000 spirit stones. It's meaningless to compete with him." Qin Kong immediately reminded when he saw Chang Mingyang being enraged.
"Do I even need you to remind me?" Chang Mingyang glared at Qin Kong. Although he was not willing to give up, he had the intention to back off. He could not afford to spend 2,000,000 spirit stones on a set of Light Illusion Dual Swords.
He slightly raised his head and glanced at Chu Xingyun. As he was about to save his face, he saw Chu Xingyun reaching out his hand and saying, "I bid 3,000,000 spirit stones!"
The voice caused the entire auction house to fall into silence once again.
Everyone's mind was in a mess. They had no idea what Chu Xingyun was trying to do. He had clearly frightened Chang Mingyang with his bid of 2,000,000 spirit stones, allowing him to easily win the Light Illusion Dual Swords.
Why did he suddenly increase the bid now?
Feeling the puzzled gazes of the crowd, Chu Xingyun turned around and pretended to sigh. "The reason I bought the Light Illusion Dual Swords was to make Princess Qingcheng smile. However, she did not smile just now. I had no choice but to keep increasing the bid."
Chu Xingyun's words were filled with sarcasm.
At the beginning, Chang Mingyang said that he wanted to buy the Light Illusion Dual Swords to make her smile. However, when he saw Chu Xingyun bid such a high price, he immediately wanted to back off and give up.
At this time, Chu Xingyun suddenly increased the bid, saying that Xia Qingcheng did not smile. Therefore, he would keep increasing the bid and would not be stingy.
These words were a step further mocking Chang Mingyang, saying that his words were not even comparable to dog farts and were just empty words!
"This guy has so many tricks up his sleeve!"
