Chapter 1041 Successful conclusion, perfect frame-up
However, the white-bearded old man in the elegant room, as well as Mo Juhun from the Ten Thousand Flowers Valley, their faces darkened when they heard these words.
Although forced by the situation, the two had no choice but to compromise and vowed to compete fairly, but if they really had the power to provoke Nascent Soul without opening their eyes, the consequences would be obvious.
"I bid 110,000 middle-grade spiritual stones!"
The old Taoist with a long beard couldn't help it at first, and immediately made a quotation with a cold tone.
Mo Jihun didn't show any weakness after hearing this, and quickly increased the price again:
"In this case, I will bid you 120,000 mid-grade spiritual stones!"
But not long after the words fell, the voice of "Xiao Bufan" sounded again:
"Hehe! Our Xiao Chamber of Commerce has nothing else but a lot of spirit stones. I'm offering you 150,000 mid-grade spirit stones!"
As soon as these words came out, there was a gasp of cold air in the venue.
After all, according to market conditions, 150,000 mid-grade spiritual stones, converted into a total of 15 million low-grade spiritual stones! This is again without calculating the exchange rate premium.
It is no exaggeration to say that this figure is definitely a sky-high price for the Golden Core Stage monks. At least, it is absolutely impossible for ordinary Golden Core Stage masters to have such a huge wealth.
Even representatives of the many forces present would never be able to come up with so many spiritual stones at once.
I am afraid that only the young master of the Xiao family, known as the second largest chamber of commerce in Kyushu, can squander his wealth so generously.
Because of this, some people in the field who considered themselves to be powerful looked at the private room where "Xiao Bufan" was, and their eyes became a little flickering, and they were obviously planning something secretly.
As for the white-bearded old man and Mo Juhun, their eyes quietly turned cold and stern, but they still continued to increase the price.
Ever since, a thrilling bidding has been staged, sometimes causing bursts of exclamations from the monks in the field.
Seeing this scene, Fairy Yun Xin, who had already learned the inside story in Yajian, could not help but become more and more weird.
Only Qin Tian still sat upright with the old god present, but the look in his eyes that occasionally glanced at the private room where the two Nascent Soul masters were sitting contained a hint of joking.
.....................
As time passed slowly, half a cup of tea soon passed.
In the end, after a fierce competition, the young master of the Xiao family successfully won the auction by bidding a sky-high price of 200,000 medium-grade spiritual stones by relying on his wealthy family.
Such an ending immediately caused everyone present to exclaim and marvel at the Xiao family's strong financial resources. Some people with evil intentions and licking blood are gearing up, wishing they could transform into oriole immediately.
The strange thing is that the two Nascent Soul Stage powerhouses who lost the spirit fruit did not say anything more, as if they accepted the result.
Seeing this situation, Jin Ruyu was naturally happy, and quickly knocked down the golden hammer in his hand as quickly as possible, announcing the treasure deal on the spot.
Since then, the Fairy City Auction Ceremony, which has been held once in decades, has come to a successful conclusion.
But what no one expected was that when everyone began to gradually leave, they found that the private room where "Xiao Bufan" was was already empty.
Even the Spirit Infant Fruits sold at auction were completely missing.
Some people who were secretly planning to do evil were naturally unwilling to give up, so they gathered near the city gate to squat, or simply hid in the teleportation hall to observe.
Even the white-bearded old man and Mo Juhun left in a hurry, as if they had something important to do.
Regarding this, Qin Tian, who was the leader behind the scenes, naturally had a look of indifference on his face, and then took Ao Ling'er and Mi Yunxin directly back to the city lord's palace.
.............
However, in the early morning of the next day, an extremely explosive piece of news quickly spread across the entire Kyushu Continent.
According to rumors, Xiao Bufan, the dignified young master of the Xiao family, was robbed and killed by a mysterious man in Qingzhou City after taking a photo of the rare Spirit Infant Fruit in Fengming Fairy City. He died on the spot and his soul was annihilated.
Not only was a lot of property looted, but all the followers of the Xiao Chamber of Commerce were also slaughtered, leaving no one alive. The cruelty of their methods and the ruthlessness of their actions were simply outrageous.
As soon as such explosive news came out, even the change of power in Fengming Immortal City and the mass loss of monks from the two major forces were completely overshadowed.
For a time, the entire Jiuzhou Continent's immortal world was talking about it, secretly speculating on the origin of the robber.
The events of the Fengming Fairy City Auction Ceremony, including the incident of Xiao Bufan snatching food from the jaws of two Nascent Soul masters, were also spread by someone with ulterior motives.
As a result, the two major forces in Youzhou, the ancestors of Changting Tower and Wanhua Valley, were directly pushed to the forefront and became the biggest target of suspicion.
After all, with the Xiao family's young master's cultivation strength and the protection of a large number of followers, he could kill them all in a short time. I am afraid that only the Nascent Soul stage strong ones can do it.
Faced with this situation, the white-bearded old Taoist and Na Mo were naturally at a loss for words and worried. Later, they did not dare to stay in the fairy city. They hurried back to the sect as quickly as possible and activated the formation to protect the sect.
As for the disgraced Xiao family, although they are extremely angry, the water is too muddy, so the top management of the Xiao family cannot be sure whether it is the Wuxuan Dao Sect who intends to retaliate, or whether the Jin Chamber of Commerce does it maliciously, or whether it is Wanhua Valley and Wanhua Valley. Changtinglou kills people and seizes treasures.
Finally, due to the strange situation in Youzhou, the Xiao family could not produce any substantial evidence, and they dared not get involved in the vortex. They could only criticize and condemn it, and issued a hunting order to barely save some face, and then it was completely over.
But what is surprising is that the news of the death of the Heavenly Official was concealed by the Heavenly Demon Sect and was not known to the outside world, otherwise it might cause a shocking earthquake.
And the attitude of the Demon Sect is even more unusual. There is no large-scale pressure, and no strong people come to make trouble, as if they have already accepted this dumb loss.
While the outside world was in turmoil, Qin Tian was happily dividing the spoils with Fatty Jin in the City Lord's Mansion of Fengming Immortal City!
