Chapter 33: Completely Insane
Upon hearing this, everyone turned their heads towards the source of the voice, only to see a man dressed in blue cloth, wearing a bamboo hat, with eyes as deep as the vast starry sky.
His aura was ordinary, like an ordinary stone, yet no one dared to look directly into his eyes.
He stood before everyone like a high mountain, giving off an invisible sense of oppression.
Seeing this bamboo-hatted man bid, the black-robed man couldn’t help but freeze.
He didn’t expect that someone in Donghua Region would compete with him for something.
Although he didn’t know who the other party was, with his keen intuition, he felt that the other party was definitely not a good person.
“I offer four million High-Grade Spirit Stones.”
The black-robed man spoke again, calling out a higher price.
After hearing this number, the crowd couldn’t help but gasp, their eyes filled with deep shock.
Four million High-Grade Spirit Stones! Even if their family assets exceeded ten million High-Grade Spirit Stones, they wouldn’t waste so many Spirit Stones on a Dragon King Pearl. This was simply outrageous!
“Which great family’s prodigy is he? Although the Dragon King Pearl is rare, four million High-Grade Spirit Stones has already exceeded its value.”
“Xiao Qiu, a branch family disciple of the Xiao Family, the second largest family in Donghua Region.”
“Four million High-Grade Spirit Stones is quite a lot, but it’s not too much for a branch of the Xiao Family. After all, the Xiao Family’s wealth is beyond our imagination.”
The auction hall instantly fell silent, clearly feeling that the Dragon King Pearl was worth at most four million High-Grade Spirit Stones.
At this moment, the bamboo-hatted man bid again, “Four million one hundred thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones.”
“Hiss~”
In an instant, everyone’s bodies trembled, and they all looked towards the bamboo-hatted man, wanting to guess his identity.
However, because the man was well-concealed, no one could see his true appearance, and no one knew who he was.
“D*mn it!”
Hearing this number, Xiao Qiu’s face changed, and a glint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes. He gritted his teeth hatefully and continued to shout, “Five million High-Grade Spirit Stones!”
“Five million one hundred thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones.”
At this time, the bamboo-hatted man spoke again.
Once again, he only added one hundred thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones, steadily suppressing Xiao Qiu.
Hearing this price, everyone present gasped, their hearts filled with shock.
“Oh my god, who is this person? Bidding like this, isn’t he afraid of offending Xiao Qiu?”
“Who is Xiao Qiu? He’s a notorious p*ayboy in Donghua Region. It’s said that three years ago, he took a fancy to a virtuous woman, but the woman was already married. But Xiao Qiu still didn’t let her go. That night, in front of the woman’s husband, he forced himself on her and then exterminated her entire family.”
“But that guy doesn’t seem simple either. Since he’s so rich and fearless, he must have some backing, right?”
“Who cares? It’s none of our business anyway. Let’s just watch the show.”
Hearing the surrounding discussions, the expression on Xiao Qiu’s face became even uglier. He glared fiercely at the bamboo-hatted man and cursed in his heart, “You b*stard, you dare to compete with me? I’ll see if I don’t k*ll you afterwards!”
Thinking of this, he roared, “Six million High-Grade Spirit Stones!”
At this moment, the most excited person was the woman in the red dress on the central high platform. Her excited little face was flushed, her hands were clenched into fists, and her beautiful eyes were filled with excitement.
Six million High-Grade Spirit Stones had completely exceeded the value of the Dragon King Pearl.
She didn’t expect that someone would pay such a high price to bid for the Dragon King Pearl. It seemed that both of them were aiming for the Dragon King Pearl, which made her very happy.
She raised her jade-like neck high and scanned the surroundings with a smile, “Young Master Xiao has bid six million High-Grade Spirit Stones. Is there anyone who will bid a higher price?”
Ye Fan, in the “Hai” private room, was furious when he heard Xiao Qiu raise the price of the Dragon King Pearl to six million High-Grade Spirit Stones.
He only had ten million High-Grade Spirit Stones on him. If he increased the bid, it would be much more difficult for him to win the Dragon King Pearl.
“No, I have to make a move!”
◈◈◈
With that in mind, he stood up directly and shouted, “Six million one hundred thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones.”
As his voice rang out, the entire auction hall fell silent once again.
Everyone’s gazes were focused on the “Hai” private room, their faces filled with disbelief.
“Is this person crazy? He dares to bid against Xiao Qiu?”
“Another ignorant fool.”
“Shh, be quiet. After all, since he can sit in the ‘Hai’ private room, his background must be extraordinary. If we anger him, we’ll be in trouble!”
Hearing the surrounding whispers, a faint arc appeared at the corner of Xiao Qiu’s mouth. He wanted to see who the guy inside was, who dared to compete with him for the Dragon King Pearl. He was really tired of living!
Killing one is killing, killing two is also killing.
He didn’t mind killing Ye Fan and the bamboo-hatted man together to establish his authority.
Ye Fan, inside the “Hai” private room, grinned. He felt that he should be grateful to Su Chen, this big spender, for allowing him to be in this separate private room, which intimidated some people and saved him a lot of bidding trouble.
After all, the people who could be in a separate private room were either rich or noble, which well concealed Ye Fan’s true identity.
Sure enough, after hearing his bid, the bamboo-hatted man stiffened slightly, and a hint of solemnity and apprehension appeared in his eyes.
However, Xiao Qiu wasn’t intimidated. He snorted coldly, “Seven million High-Grade Spirit Stones!”
Ye Fan raised his eyebrows. This guy really wouldn’t back down.
He gritted his teeth, “Seven million one hundred thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones!”
He didn’t believe Xiao Qiu would continue to bid.
Hearing Ye Fan’s bid, a fierce smile appeared on Xiao Qiu’s lips, “Ten million High-Grade Spirit Stones!”
Boom~
As soon as these words came out, the entire auction hall exploded once again.
Too crazy!
The assets of the families present were all above ten million High-Grade Spirit Stones, but ten million High-Grade Spirit Stones in assets and cash were still not equivalent.
There was usually a discount applied.
In other words, their families might not actually be able to take out ten million High-Grade Spirit Stones.
And Xiao Qiu, in order to save face, had forcibly spent more than five million High-Grade Spirit Stones. It could be seen that he had gone completely insane.
This made them even more curious about who dared to challenge Xiao Qiu. It was simply courting death!
At this moment, Ye Fan’s face became extremely u*ly. He clenched his fists tightly, the veins on his hands bulging. His eyes flickered with intense anger and humiliation. He never thought that someone would compete with him for this Dragon King Pearl.
And he had directly overturned the table, revealing the astronomical price of ten million High-Grade Spirit Stones.
Ten million High-Grade Spirit Stones!
It was all the property he could take out.
Xiao Qiu was forcing him to his death, leaving him no way out.
“Ah!”
He roared towards the sky, as if he had been driven mad by the stimulation. His eyes were bloodshot, his whole body trembling, and his eyeballs seemed as if they were about to pop out of their sockets.
“Xiao Qiu, you’ve gone too far!”
Ye Fan roared crazily, his face turning the color of pig’s liver, his eyes bloodshot, looking as if he wanted to devour someone.
