"Rebellious disciple, how dare you offend the Heavenly Emperor? When the Heavenly Emperor returns, you'll have to go to the Immortal Slaying Platform sooner or later!"
Ye Chen was certain that the old man, Night Demon, was still alive from that sentence alone. The reason being, when he was still in the Immortal World, only Night Demon called him the Heavenly Emperor. The others called him His Majesty or the Heavenly Emperor.
Even Wushuang called him Master.
That was why Ye Chen said that the old man, Night Demon, was a bumpkin.
Everyone was dumbstruck when they heard what the auctioneer said. They thought they had heard it wrong.
"The Heavenly Emperor? The Immortal Slaying Platform? "
"You're bragging. I almost believed you."
"Did the translation machine really translate that? You guys didn't make it up? Don't tell me you're deliberately making up a lie to deceive us? "
"…"
The crowd burst into laughter. Clearly, nobody believed what the auctioneer said. They thought it was a publicity trick that the auction house had prepared in advance.
"What's the second sentence?"
Someone asked with a teasing expression.
The auctioneer's face reddened involuntarily, and he hesitated for a moment before saying, "The second sentence is that I, Lord Night Demon, have cheated on someone on the Divine Demon Ridge, slept in the Peach Garden of Immortality, and even kissed a fairy …"
Before he was done speaking, the crowd burst into laughter.
"Are you sure that's really translated? You didn't take out a recording of a patient's checkup from a mental hospital? "
"This is too f * cking funny. The auction house must've arranged this to liven up the atmosphere, right? I guess it must be. Congratulations, you guys have successfully made me laugh! "
"…"
They were not the only ones. Even Dai Shiyu, who was sitting next to Ye Chen, could not stop giggling while holding her stomach.
Ye Chen shook his head lightly.
That was the Night Demon!
He had not changed at all!
It was a mess. The auctioneer could not control himself. Soon, a high-level auctioneer replaced him.
The person who replaced him was a capable lady. Compared to everyone's laughter, she said with a grim expression, "We have a total of five foreign fragments like this. We'll auction them in five batches, one each time.
"The auction for the first outer space fragment starts now. The starting price is 50 million, and each increment must be at least 1 million!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the entire crowd quietened down. Surprisingly, no one made a bid. Most people were shocked by the starting price of fifty million.
"Bang, bang, bang …"
Almost in an instant, all the doors on the third floor of the auction house were opened. Then, seven or eight women walked out of the rooms, dressed in different attire.
Shen Xingye and Tang Ning were among them.
"God, what did I just see? Apart from Japan's Chiba clan's Miss Chiba Yoshiko, England's William clan is here too. "
"That's not all. If I remember correctly, they are Russia's Marva and Egypt's Aches!"
"It's the two of them. Rumor has it that Marva is a descendant of Russia's royal family. He was able to move objects through space when he was six years old. And that Aches, it's said that she entered the pyramid before and was the only one to walk out alive …"
"…"
With their appearance, the atmosphere at the scene was immediately pushed to the climax. Countless people were discussing among themselves. Obviously, they did not expect these people to come to Hong Kong together.
"100 million!"
Chiba Yoshiko was the first to bid. She was decisive. At such a time, there was no need for them to be secretive anymore!
The people were in high spirits. They thought to themselves, 'As expected of a boss. She doubled the price as soon as she opened her mouth. She's determined to get it!'
"200 million!"
William spoke slowly as he hugged Fang Mi. It was as if 200 million was just a drop in the bucket to him.
"500 million!"
Russia's Marva said while squinting, "William, Miss Yoshiko, and Miss Aches, I, Marva, must have this shard today. I'm not short of money. You guys can compete with me."
"Haha!"
Aches, who had long burgundy hair, scoffed. Without saying much, she bid decisively, "800 million!"
Everyone's expression changed as soon as she said that!
'Holy sh * t, how long has it been, and it's already 800 million. If this goes on, it would be impossible to get it without a few billion.'
In room No.8.
Young Master Lei sat calmly. A playful smirk appeared at the corner of his lips as he looked at the crowd outside. "Go ahead. The more you guys fight, the more satisfied I'll be. It's best if you guys fight!"
…
Shen Xingye, who was sitting next to Tangning, smiled calmly. "One billion!"
Now, even Marva and the rest were shocked. William said in his deep voice, "Young Master Shen, what's wrong? Is your family interested in the foreign shard too?"
"I think the atmosphere is good, so I might as well spend one or two billion to liven things up," Shen Xingye said calmly.
Liven things up? Who was he trying to fool?
The people secretly scoffed at what he said. Chiba Yoshiko could not help but say, "Guys, the auctioneer has said that there are a total of five foreign shards. Why don't we each take one? There's no need for us to raise the price. Both sides will suffer in the end!"
From the way she saw it, her biggest threats were Marva, William, Young Master Shen, Aches, and the others. If they could come to an agreement with each other, then things would be much easier. She might not be able to get all the fragments, but it was better than nothing.
Moreover, even if one party took all of the shards, they would definitely become the target of everyone else. It would be impossible for them to escape with all of them.
As soon as she said this, everyone had a thoughtful look on their faces. It was obvious that they were persuaded. Only Shen Xingye smiled faintly. "But there are six of us here, and there are only five fragments. How are we going to divide them?"
His words stumped the few of them again.
Indeed, there were only five shards, and there were six of them. It would not be enough no matter how they split them. One party would definitely not get it.
At that moment, the six of them could not stop their eyes from flickering. They were secretly thinking about how to deal with the situation before them.
A murderous intent gradually appeared on the scene.
The onlookers could not help but feel their hearts skip a beat. They began to realize that someone might not be able to hold it in any longer!
At that moment, a calm voice was heard. "You guys don't have to fight anymore because I'm taking all five shards!"
As soon as the voice was heard …
Marva and the rest from Russia were stunned at first. Then, their expressions turned grim and were replaced with endless killing intent.
Who is it?!
How dare he be so arrogant?!
Not only them, but the rest were shocked too.
Is he trying to take it all for himself?!
Who's so fearless?!
Only Chiba Yoshiko, Tang Ning, and Fang Mi thought the voice was familiar. They could not help but look over by instinct.
They saw Ye Chen stand up slowly.
It's him!
They saw that it was Ye Chen.
Everyone was dumbstruck at that moment. Disbelief filled their eyes.
