Chapter 2294 - 2293: The Phoenix Sect Appears!
Every auction begins with some courtesy words.
And after these pleasantries, the real auction items are presented.
During the subsequent period, one auction item after another is presented, and the atmosphere of the entire auction house becomes increasingly intense, pushing the auction forward in full swing.
This time, there aren’t any particularly precious items, but most are usable by people with the cultivation level of someone like Huaa Qingfei or Han Junjie.
Therefore, every time a bid is made, those present don’t hesitate, and the prices of the auction items rise steadily.
Midway through the auction, a piece of Jade Pendant is presented.
"This Jade Pendant is refined by the famous Artifact Refiner, Ghost Face Grandmaster."
The old man smiled and said, "I believe everyone is very familiar with Ghost Face Grandmaster, who is a Super Powerhouse at the Dao Sovereign Realm Peak, renowned for his Artifact Refining Techniques throughout the Lower-Class Star Region."
"This Jade Pendant is named ’Junliang Jade.’ Wearing it not only blocks three attacks below the Fifth Grade Dao Lord Realm but also contains nine miniature Spirit Gathering Arrays, constantly gathering nature’s spiritual energy to be absorbed for cultivation."
"Of course, knowing the personality of Ghost Face Grandmaster, this Junliang Jade naturally has its unique aspects."
The old man paused slightly here, leaving a suspense.
After being urged by the crowd below, he continued, "The unique feature is... it can only be used by males!"
"What?!"
Upon hearing this sentence, many women below suddenly frowned.
And the men, eyes shining with anticipation.
"According to Ghost Face Grandmaster, when refining the Junliang Jade, he mixed in many special materials, all of which have yang-enhancing effects!"
"If worn for a long time, it will enhance functions in that respect. As for which aspect exactly... I think you young people should be clearer than this old man."
"Hahahahaha..."
Immediately, waves of laughter arose from below.
"It’s truly a Ghost Face Grandmaster work, only he would refine such a peculiar item."
"I want this Jade Pendant!"
"Hurry and bid!"
Hearing these very explicit words, many young women blushed and secretly cursed.
"Since the young talents are so eager, I shall not delay any longer."
The old man, clearly eager to see the reaction of the audience, said again, "The starting bid for the Junliang Jade is ten billion Spirit Crystals, with each increment of no less than one billion!"
Considering it’s an item capable of withstanding three attacks from a Mighty Being at the Fifth Grade Dao Lord Realm, a starting price of ten billion Spirit Crystals isn’t high.
"Eleven billion!"
"Thirteen billion!"
"Fifteen billion!"
"Twenty billion!"
Immediately, many voices rang out, their bids continually raising the price of the Junliang Jade.
In just a few minutes, the price of the Junliang Jade had already broken through a hundred billion.
"One hundred and fifty billion."
At this moment, a faint voice directly increased the bid by fifty billion!
Many eyes couldn’t help but look over, only to see Xiaoo Hailong sitting there lazily, as if one hundred and fifty billion was just a mere trifle to him.
"As expected of Young Master Xiaoo, truly wealthy." Huaa Qingfei timely complimented.
As soon as she finished speaking, another voice was heard.
"One hundred and fifty-two billion."
Raising the price wasn’t surprising, but this time, the voice came from a woman!
Falling Feather Fairy, Fenng Yihan!
"Hmm?"
Xiaoo Hailong frowned and couldn’t help but say, "Falling Feather Fairy, what do you mean by this? This Junliang Jade is only effective for men."
"Hehe, perhaps Junior Sister intends to buy it as a gift for Young Master Xiaoo?" Huaa Qingfei chimed in.
"What I intend to do with it is none of your concern." Fenng Yihan responded calmly.
Xiaoo Hailong’s frown deepened, but he didn’t say more.
"One hundred and fifty-five billion!"
"One hundred and sixty billion!"
"One hundred and sixty-one billion!"
"One hundred and sixty-two billion!"
In the time that followed, voices continued to echo, bidding back and forth.
And when the price of the Junliang Jade finally broke two hundred billion, there were fewer voices bidding.
In the entire venue, only two people were left contending.
One was Fenng Yihan, the other was Xiaoo Hailong.
"Two hundred and three billion!"
"Two hundred and four billion!"
"Two hundred and five billion!"
"Two hundred and ten billion!"
The last bid, called out by Xiaoo Hailong.
After his bid, before Fenng Yihan could respond, he directly said, "Falling Feather Fairy, are you deliberately targeting me? I haven’t offended you, have I?"
"Yihan has no intention of targeting Young Master Xiaoo, she just likes the Junliang Jade as well." Fenng Yihan said.
"Doesn’t Young Master Xiaoo understand yet?"
Huaa Qingfei’s annoying voice sounded again.
"Junior Sister is probably buying this Junliang Jade to give to some man, after all, holding onto it herself is of no use, right?"
"Who would she give it to?" Xiaoo Hailong asked instinctively.
"Why would Huaa Qingfei need to say more on whom it’s intended for?"
Huaa Qingfei chuckled, "Young Master Xiaoo, think carefully, who among the men could hold a place in Junior Sister Fenng’s heart? The key is, this man’s cultivation level must be below the Fifth Grade Dao Lord Realm, otherwise, why would Junior Sister Fenng spend such a huge amount to bid for it?"
"Attracting Junior Sister Fenng’s favor, yet with such a low cultivation level, this man, without Huaa Qingfei’s words, should already be apparent, right?"
"Su, Ba, Liu!!!" Xiaoo Hailong’s face turned ashen.
Truth be told, he wasn’t set on having Fenng Yihan.
After all, Fenng Yihan’s status was very high, glorified among the Top Ten Fairies, not someone he could easily pursue.
But at this moment, in front of so many people, Huaa Qingfei, through her words, put him in an extremely embarrassing position, with Xiaoo Hailong’s character, how could he not be angered?
"Senior Sister!"
Fenng Yihan stood up, saying, "Don’t you think you’ve said enough?"
"See, I guessed right." Huaa Qingfei glanced at Xiaoo Hailong and sighed, "Tsk, tsk, Young Master Xiaoo is handsome and comes from a good family, I truly don’t understand, in what way is that Su Ba Liude better than him?"
"You..." Fenng Yihan showed a hint of anger.
"Enough!"
Xiaoo Hailong suddenly shouted, "Falling Feather Fairy, I, Xiaoo Hailong, will definitely let you know, that damn Su Ba Liu, in my eyes, is nothing but an ant. If I want, I can crush him at any moment!"
Hearing this, Fenng Yihan clenched her fists gently, then sat back down without saying another word.
"Boom!"
At that moment, a loud noise suddenly came from the entrance of the auction house.
The door had shattered into countless pieces, mixed with dust, scattering in all directions.
"Swish, swish, swish..."
Afterwards, hundreds of silhouettes simultaneously rushed in from outside.
Leading them was an old man with slightly gray hair.
"Hmm?"
"What’s happening? Who are you?"
"Bold ruffians, how dare you forcibly break into the Sect of the Heavenly Sea’s auction?"
Everyone was puzzled, while there were angry shouts from the Sect of the Heavenly Sea.
However, to these angry shouts, the old man appeared as if he hadn’t heard anything.
Standing at the high ground, his gaze swept across the audience as he spoke, words flowing from his mouth.
"The Phoenix Sect is handling matters, bystanders must leave immediately!"
"Otherwise, no mercy will be shown!"
