"Seven hundred and ten crystal stones. Is there anyone else who wants to compete with me and my fourth brother for the two Monster Cores of the Ice Monster?" While Zi Yao and Ling Dong were still in shock, the Second Prince, Bi Jing, who was mentioned by the Fourth Prince, walked out from the VIP room behind the Fourth Prince!
Only then did Ling Dong realize that the Second Prince, Bi Jing, and the Fourth Prince, Bi Zheng, were sitting in the same VIP room! With this discovery, Ling Dong's first thought was that there was a ghost!
The Second Prince, Bi Jing, and the Fourth Prince, Bi Zheng, were in the same room. Nothing good could come out of this! But from the looks of it, Ling Dong still couldn't figure out what these two wanted to do!
Were they trying to disrupt the first auction of Huang Ziyao, the new Pavilion Leader? There seemed to be no benefit for these two brothers!
The Second Prince and the Fourth Prince asked for the Monster Cores of the Ice Monster at the same time. This situation instantly made those who were eager to bid give up!
Although the Monster Cores of the Ice Monster were precious, there was no need to offend two high-ranking princes! Even if there were guests from other empires, they still had to consider that they were still in the territory of the Empire of Yaoguang. They still had to give them some face!
Zi Yao, who was hosting the auction, was a little angry. Wasn't this a slap in the face to her, the new Pavilion Leader of the Kuixing Pavilion? If this continued in the future, she might as well close down the Kuixing Pavilion and not open it again!
She had seen shameless people before, but she had never seen anyone as shameless as the Second Prince and the Fourth Prince! However, Zi Yao could only keep this in her heart. She really could not scold them!
"Your Highnesses, please conduct yourselves with dignity. Please do not break the rules of the auction!" Zi Yao suppressed her anger and scolded softly. In a public place, this sentence was already an extremely serious wording! However, the Second Prince and the Fourth Prince, Bi Zheng, did not feel the slightest sense of shame!
The Fourth Prince said shamelessly, "Pavilion Leader Zi, you can't speak carelessly! Which rule of the Kuixing Pavilion did my second brother and I break? Please state it clearly! If there is, I will definitely correct it! But if you don't, this humble king and second brother will only offer 710 mid-grade crystal stones for the two Monster Cores of the Ice Mythical Beasts! "
Speaking of this, the Fourth Prince Bi Zheng's expression turned stern. "Not only that, but for the subsequent auction items, I and Second Brother will bid the same. What do you think, Pavilion Master Zi Yao?"
Zi Yao was not the only one who was shocked when she heard that. Everyone in the Kuixing Pavilion was in an uproar! Wasn't this just causing trouble? Using their lofty status to cause trouble!
Ordinary people really had no way to deal with this kind of behavior, nor did they have any way to deal with it! This was because most of them had to be wary of the power and strength of the Second and Fourth Princes!
Even if there were a few unscrupulous people, they would be able to take advantage of the situation and buy most of the items at a low price, turning Zi Yao's auction into a black one!
This was also the serious consequence of the Second Prince and the Fourth Prince's joint declaration!
"What are these two arrogant fellows doing?" In the VIP room where the judging team was, Bai Shaokui frowned when he saw the situation!
Elder Fei, who was reprimanded earlier, hurriedly said, "Shaokui, don't be anxious. Isn't this the time to test Pavilion Master Zi Yao's ability?"
In response to Elder Fei's words, Bai Shaokui only glanced at him coldly and said, "Don't let me find out that this is a conspiracy between Chi Yangyu and these two bastards. Otherwise, hmph!"
While Bai Shaokui was venting his anger, the Second Prince and the Fourth Prince in the auction room were putting on a show again. Looking at Zi Yao's beautiful face that had turned cold due to her anger, the Fourth Prince Bi Zheng said, "Pavilion Master Zi Yao, of course, you can also ask your lover to help you out! However, this King will say it here today. This King's bid will always be higher than your lover's by ten mid-grade crystal stones! I'd like to see if your lover's net worth is richer or if my Second Brother and I are richer! "
Hearing the Fourth Prince's blatant provocation, Ling Dong suddenly sat up straight and said, "Are these two fellows crazy?"
Even though he was angry, it was undeniable that the Fourth Prince and the Second Prince's words were very intimidating! Ling Dong really could not afford to fill this bottomless pit! The real gold and silver that was auctioned would all fall into the pockets of the Kuixing Pavilion, but not a single cent would be returned to Ling Dong!
Moreover, Ling Dong believed that if he really bid and fought fiercely with the Fourth Prince Bi Fang and the Second Prince Bi Jing, any item would be sold at a sky-high price!
However, the problem was that Ling Dong did not dare to bid. Ling Dong, the Second Prince, and the Fourth Prince could not afford to compete with each other! What a joke! The crystal stones that Ling Dong earned by luck were not even enough for his own cultivation, let alone to compete with the Second Prince and the Fourth Prince, who were two powerful figures!
"Seven hundred and ten crystal stones, is there anyone else who wants to bid? If no one else wants to bid, this Demonic Beast core will belong to me! Tsk tsk, this Demonic Beast core can be sold at a normal market price of more than 1,500 crystal stones! "The Fourth Prince's praise made Zi Yao's face turn even uglier!
However, because of the Second Prince and the Fourth Prince's declaration, no one else dared to bid. Zi Yao had no other choice! Moreover, if no one else wanted to bid, the Demonic Beast core would really belong to the Second Prince and the Fourth Prince. Zi Yao, the black sheep who opened the door, was definitely going to win! It was conceivable that the following auction would be the worst auction in the history of the Kuixing Pavilion under the interference of the two princes!
"Fourth Brother, how can you treat a beauty like this?" After the Fourth Prince's threat, the Second Prince tried to be the good guy again. After laughing, the Second Prince said, "Pavilion Leader Zi Yao, actually, you know what Fourth Brother and I want the most! If you can agree to share it with Seventh Brother, all the items that Fourth Brother and I want to auction will belong to the Kuixing Pavilion! What do you think? This is a good proposal, right? "
"Miss Zi Yao, if you agree to our proposal, I think Fourth Brother will happily take back what he said earlier! Fourth Brother, don't you think so? "The Second Prince, Bi Jing, said to the Fourth Prince, Bi Fang.
"Of course, as long as Miss Zi Yao agrees to this proposal, we will take back what we said earlier!" The Fourth Prince, Bi Zheng, said with a fake smile.
"Sigh … Second Brother, Fourth Brother, your shamelessness really makes this little brother admire you! What you are doing is no different from robbers! "In another VIP room, the Seventh Prince, Bi Ying, said sarcastically.
A shameless person is invincible! Once the superior started to be shameless, he would be even more invincible! Solidarity was the only thing the Seventh Prince, Bi Ying, could do!
"Seventh Brother, you are a well-fed man, but you don't know the suffering of the starving! Moreover, we have paid a price. Don't you think so, Miss Zi Yao? "The Fourth Prince said mischievously.
Looking at this fierce battle, Ling Dong, who was in the VIP room, fell into deep thought. At this point, Ling Dong finally understood the intentions of the Second Prince and the Fourth Prince, Bi Zheng!
The two of them were using Huang Ziyao as a threat to the Kui Xing Pavilion, which had greatly damaged the Prime Minister's Pavilion, as a price, to gain the right to share information from the Kui Xing Pavilion like the Seventh Prince!
In this way, the power of the three princes gradually returned to balance. This was because the Second Prince, Bi Jing, the Fourth Prince, Bi Zheng, and the Seventh Prince, Bi Ying, had joined forces under great pressure! This was a kind of balance that the two princes had found after their defeat!
This was a situation that even Ling Dong did not expect.
However, Ling Dong knew that it was the right choice for Second Prince Bi Jing and Fourth Prince Bi Zheng to join forces! If they did not join forces, with the help of the two Grand Mansion Masters and the help of the Kui Xing Pavilion's intelligence, the Seventh Prince, Bi Ying, would have no suspense in seizing the throne!
Although Ling Dong had analyzed the situation clearly, he still did not have a solution to this situation! The best way was for someone to step forward bravely and not be afraid of the threat of the Second Prince and the Fourth Prince, to forcefully increase the price.
With the first person to take the lead, the prestige and strength of the Second Prince and the Fourth Prince would be reduced! The number of people who would increase the price would increase.
As the saying goes, the law does not punish the masses! If someone took the lead and the others eagerly increased the price, then the Second Prince and the Fourth Prince would be helpless. Because if they really retaliated against those who increased the price one by one, it would be harmful to them! As the princes who were vying for the throne, the most important thing was to not make too many enemies!
However, the most important thing was that the first person to take the lead! Ling Dong wanted to take the lead, but this path had been sealed! As for the rest of the people present, they could forget about it!
Which of the rich and powerful guests who could enter today's Dueling Auction Fair wasn't a shrewd person? Why would they do such a thing?! Everyone knew that the rafters that stuck out would rot first!
Without the first person to take the lead, the auction would enter a deadlock! It was completely stopped by the Fourth Prince's bid! Even someone as resourceful as Ling Dong could do nothing about it!
Furthermore, it was impossible for Zi Yao to agree to the conditions of these two people! If Zi Yao really agreed to their threats, Ling Dong believed that Zi Yao would not be able to remain as the Pavilion Leader until the next day!
Because this matter had happened in public, if the Kuixing Pavilion gave in, it would be a fatal blow to their reputation! Moreover, once this example was made, all the powerful people in the various empires in the Tiangang Continent would be eager to follow suit. Would the Kuixing Pavilion still continue to operate?
If this matter was done in private, from the perspective of the Kuixing Pavilion, it would not be a big deal to agree!
"Miss Zi Yao, have you thought it through? It's a win-win situation! My and Fourth Prince's demands are not too much, right? Besides, it's also beneficial to the Kuixing Pavilion. You have to think it through. There's not much time left. If you hesitate any longer, the Demonic Cores of the Ice Monster will belong to us! "The Second Prince, Bi Jing, gave Zi Yao an ultimatum!
At this moment, Zi Yao was extremely helpless. She steeled her heart and raised the auction hammer, ready to continue the auction. She did not believe that these two would continue to do this!
Just as Zi Yao raised the auction hammer, a crisp and mellow female voice suddenly rang out from one of the VIP rooms, "I really can't stand seeing someone bully Sister Zi like this. For this pair of Monster Cores of the Ice Cave Beast, I bid 1,000 mid-grade crystal stones!"
