Chapter 137: Auction of peaches, the coming of monsters
Nanshan Auction House, it has been more than half a month since the annual super auction. Today, the eight doors around the auction house are reopened at the same time again.
In addition to the annual big auction, Nanshan Auction House generally holds a small auction once a month, only opening the front and back doors. Only the annual big auction will open all eight doors.
As soon as the sky was light, the warriors who had been waiting for a long time began to enter in order. Everyone wanted to see the legendary peaches. Although they all knew that this would be a competition between major forces, it was also good to feast their eyes.
Su Yu did not join in the fun, but waited in the Zhonghua Pavilion. As for the others, except Wuming, everyone went to the auction house.
"Emperor, it seems that you are not worried." Wuming put the chess piece on the chessboard and said.
"Worry? There is nothing to worry about. I am just afraid that no one will make trouble." Su Yu said.
"The Seven Treasures Pagoda is really magical, but it requires a high level of character. Not everyone can adapt to loneliness, years, decades, and endless practice." Wuming said.
"You're right. Ximen almost went crazy before, but fortunately he came out in time and adjusted himself." Su Yu said, thinking of Ximen Chuxue's strangeness that day.
"It seems that I made some mistakes before. I should have paid attention to everyone's situation in the tower in time." Su Yu said with some fear. If a person goes crazy, all the previous efforts will be wasted if he is not careful.
Wuming nodded, which was why he reminded Su Yu.
At this time, the auction house was very lively. In order to show the charm of the peaches, a large pile of peaches really attracted everyone's attention.
"Everyone, these peaches have been identified by several respected people. Each peach increases lifespan by fifty years." Nanshan Ruofeng said.
"Wow... It's really fifty years. Tsk tsk, if you buy all of them, won't you live as long as the God Realm?" Someone sighed.
"You have no experience. The auction house has previously reported that a person can eat up to two peaches, and the effect of the second one is halved." Someone retorted.
People were enthusiastic and waited for the auction to start.
"There are 25 peaches in total. We will sell them in five groups, five in each group." said the head of Nanshan Family.
"Hiss..."
"Selling them in groups, won't it be crazy to sell them like crazy?"
"Dad, five together, won't it be too much?" Jian Muyang asked in the box.
"You don't understand. Selling them together is actually more attractive than selling them individually. These forces will definitely do their best to bid for the next group in order to consolidate their reputation. Otherwise, if they are bid by others, they will lose face and dignity. If they happen to improve their realm after taking them, they will regret it." Jian Yanwu explained.
"I think Uncle Wuyou and the others should be able to bid for them." Jian Muyang looked at the next door with some concern and said.
"Yujian Pavilion, these people will definitely make trouble at that time, but I have already said hello to my senior brother. When the money is needed, our Jian family will help." Jian Yanwu said.
On the high platform, when the crowd calmed down a little, Nanshan Ruofeng raised the gavel and leaned heavily on the table.
"The first set of peaches will be auctioned now, with a starting price of 50,000 top-grade spiritual jades." The head of the Nanshan family shouted. The starting price was equivalent to the price of the peach that the Nanshan family had gotten from Su Yu before.
Before everyone could react to the high price, bidding was heard in the venue.
"Yuhu City, the Yu family bid 60,000." A voice came from a private room.
"It's the Yu family, I didn't expect them to come too."
Yuhu City, like Nether City, got its name from the Jade Lake, and the Yu family is the overlord of Yuhu City. There are also strong people in the Shinto realm in the family, but the old ancestor is about to die, and this time the Yu family came to extend his life. Although a few decades of life is not much, it is enough for the next guardian to have time to break through to the Shinto realm.
"Haha, it turned out to be the head of the Yu family. 60,000? Is there anyone who wants to add more?" The head of the Nanshan family laughed.
"70,000." The voice came from the audience below.
Everyone looked in surprise, and saw a group of warriors in black clothes and masks, but when they saw the clothes of several people clearly, the people around were shocked, and then they retreated as if they had seen a ghost.
"Black Dragon Society."
"It's them."
Even the host Nanshan's assistant frowned. He didn't expect to attract this group of people.
"The Black Dragon Society is here too." Jian Yanwu frowned.
"Dad, isn't the Black Dragon Society a business of killing people? How dare they show up so blatantly?" Jian Muyang asked.
"Why, is there a rule that the Black Dragon Society cannot participate in the auction?" One of the black-clothed people said.
"Humph, 90,000, this set of peaches will be decided by my Yu family. Black Dragon Society, others are afraid of you, but I am not afraid of Yuhu City." The private room door was opened, and a middle-aged man in white came out, not afraid of the Black Dragon Society at all.
"Tsk, the old man of the Yu family has lived for a thousand years and is still not satisfied. As long as he dares to leave Yuhu City, my Black Dragon Society will kill him. One hundred thousand extreme spirits, Yu Feilong, how about it?" The man in black said arrogantly.
One hundred thousand extreme spirits has reached the price that Jian Muyang bid before. The head of the Yu family was so angry that his chest rose and fell violently. There was murderous intent in his eyes. At this moment, everyone with a discerning eye knew that the first set of peaches could only be snatched by these two forces.
"The Yu family offers 120,000." The head of the Yu family, Yu Feilong shouted.
"150,000." The man in black did not hesitate at all.
"160,000." Yu Feilong continued to raise the price.
"170,000." The man in black continued.
"180,000."
"Tsk, 10,000 is too little, just be straightforward, my Black Dragon will pay 250,000." The man in black sneered.
"Hiss..." Everyone was shocked by the Black Dragon's generosity.
"Is being a killer so rich?" Lu Xiaofeng said in the private room with some interest.
"You have to live to spend it." Ye Gucheng said.
At this time, Yu Feilong's face turned livid, and he looked deeply at the man in black.
"270,000." Yu Feilong gritted his teeth. 270,000 top-grade spiritual jade is not a lot for the Yu family. His Yu family is rich, but this money was raised by the Black Dragon, and Yu Feilong naturally couldn't swallow this breath.
"Ah, you are worthy of being the overlord of Yuhu City, too rich, I will pay 300,000. Master Yu, as long as you are higher than me, my Black Dragon will let you do whatever you want?" The man in black smiled evilly.
At this moment, everyone knew that the people from the Black Dragon Society were obviously setting a trap for the Yu family. If the Yu family didn't pay 300,000, their reputation would be affected. If they paid, they would be cheated out of 50,000.
"310,000." Yu Feilong's eyes were about to spit fire, and he quoted the final price.
"Tsk tsk... I quit." The man in black said, and sat back.
"Damn it, Black Dragon Society, remember this." Yu Feilong said angrily. Then he turned around and went back to the private room.
"Pah... Congratulations to the head of the Yu family." Nanshan Ruofeng smiled happily. This price greatly exceeded his expectations, and it doubled the previous estimate of 30,000.
"Wow... 310,000 top-grade spiritual jade."
The whole audience was boiling. Some people had never seen so much money in their lives. If it was changed to low-level spiritual jade, it would be 3.1 billion.
The next auction became even more heated. The second group of peaches was taken by the Black Dragon Society, which cost 240,000 top-grade spiritual jade. After all, there were still people who didn't want the Black Dragon Society to be an enemy, which made Yu Feilong in the private room very angry.
The third group of peaches was bought by the only female organization in the South Region, Jinyulou, at a price of 200,000 yuan. It was not because people were sympathetic to women, but because Jinyulou had a strong backstage. The Central Region Jinyu Sect, a sect composed of women, was ranked in the top ten in the Central Region.
The next fourth group was a contest between Jianqi Villa and Yujianmen. Although there was another group behind, neither side dared to take risks, just in case some mysterious force emerged again. Wouldn't it be crying without tears at that time? So from the beginning, both sides refused to give in, and the price soon broke 300,000 yuan.
"Jian Wuyou, do you really want to tear your face?" said Tang Jun, the leader of Yujianmen.
"Tang Jun, what face do you have to tear between you and me? The highest bidder wins. If you can't afford it, then withdraw yourself." Jian Wuyou said proudly.
"330,000 yuan." Tang Jun shouted.
"360,000 yuan." Jian Wuyou looked fearless.
The leader of Yujianmen hesitated at this time. This was beyond his bottom line. You know, the cheapest group before was only 200,000 yuan. Now it's almost doubled.
"Hmph, you're great." Tang Jun finished speaking and sat back.
"Pa."
"Congratulations, Master Jian."
Nanshan Ruofeng clapped his hands heavily.
Jian Wuyou arched his hands towards everyone, especially towards the box not far away.
"Interesting, this guy is spending money to show his favor to the emperor, but it's a pity that he doesn't know that the emperor is not here." Yue Shen smiled and said.
Yue Shen guessed correctly. Before participating in the auction, Jian Wuyou learned about Su Yu from Jian Muyang and his son. He was also very sure that Su Yu came from a holy place or a hidden family, so he was willing to spend a lot of money to get a set of peaches.
Just when Nanshan Ruofeng was about to auction the last set of peaches, a series of bells suddenly came from outside the auction house.
"Dang... Dang... Dang..."
Everyone present was stunned at first, and then their expressions changed drastically, and they stood up from their seats.
Nanshan Ruofeng reacted very quickly and put all the peaches into the space ring with a wave of his hand.
"The bell rang nine times, there are monsters attacking the city, the auction is suspended." Nanshan Ruofeng said, and rushed out of the auction house in a flash.
"Swoosh..."
Several figures flew out of the private room again.
"Wow... Monsters are attacking the city, everyone hurry out." Everyone ran out.
Only the people in Yuhuang Pavilion were still confused. At this time, the door was opened, and Jianwu and Jian Muyang rushed in.
"Oh no, monsters are attacking the city. Everyone must go up the city wall." Jian Muyang said anxiously.
"Let's go." Jiang Ni stood up and said.
"Interesting, my hands are itching." Lu Xiaofeng shook his arms.
"Monsters? Can I eat it?" Ah Qing asked Jianwu curiously.
"Oh, the meat of high-level monsters is a great tonic, and it can also improve cultivation. The effect is no worse than Lingyu." Jianwu nodded.
Ah Qing's eyes lit up immediately, and his little face suddenly became excited, and he hurriedly urged everyone to go out.
