Chapter 152: Chapter 151: Ulterior Motives
The auction, spurred by the appearance of Cold Blade, reached another climax.
Even without bidding, many were equally thrilled.
Because the price had reached thirty billion!
Here, money seemed like waste paper, life earnings for some that would not amass in ten lifetimes; for these people, it was just a matter of speaking.
And these were just people standing at a regional pinnacle.
In the outside world, there were countless people stronger and wealthier.
Tonight, those who came here truly broadened their horizons.
After reaching thirty billion, the room finally fell into a brief silence.
The bid of thirty billion came from one of the nine supreme private rooms.
"Thirty billion, does anyone want to bid higher?" Lan Yue Yuxue asked spiritedly, "Once, the highest record at Mittel Hotel was fifty billion, will it be broken tonight?"
"Second Elder, should we bid?" Seeing the casual glance from Lan Yue Yuxue, Yi Lingchuan couldn’t help but turn to look at Ye Liangsi.
A few tens of millions, or even a few billion, he could decide on his own, but thirty billion, even for the Mingyang Sect, was a significant figure.
"Bid." Ye Liangsi’s eyes flickered sharply, "The Spiritual Artifact is worth it, forty billion!"
"Okay."
Yi Lingchuan immediately perked up, took over the microphone, and pretended to be nonchalant: "Records are meant to be broken. To break the record, I bid forty billion!"
In the number two Emperor Level suite, sat two people, a man and a woman, among them, the woman was Lan Xiyue, oh her graceful figure by the window, the light shining on her fair face, pure as a fairy.
The other person, a young man, looked to be around thirty, standing behind her.
"How much is the budget the family gave this time?" Lan Xiyue asked without turning her head.
"Sixty billion." The man behind answered, "Miss, the family said this Spiritual Artifact is a hot potato; getting it for sixty billion is acceptable, otherwise, let it go."
Lan Xiyue did not respond, she bid again, directly raising the price to sixty billion.
This price caused an uproar in the room.
Was the record of Mittel Hotel really going to be broken?
Even Lin Hao was surprised: "She really is a wealthy young lady."
"Seventy billion," suddenly, a deep voice spoke.
This voice caught many people’s attention, Lin Hao also looked to the front left.
The speaker was in a suite that had never placed a bid before.
"Second Elder..." Yi Lingchuan looked at Ye Liangsi.
Ye Liangsi nodded.
Yi Lingchuan raised the bid again: "Eighty billion!"
Eighty billion!
Not only had the record of Mittel Hotel been broken, but it also exceeded by a full twenty billion!
Many were now confused.
Is just one antique worth this price?
With such money, one could buy a bunch of antiques from this era!
Once the price of eighty billion was out, the entire room fell silent.
For a long while, no other bids followed.
"Is there anyone else bidding? The price has reached eighty billion." Downstairs, Lan Yue Yuxue’s clear eyes sparkled brilliantly, sweeping across everyone.
Her gaze was like poison, those swept by her gaze all flushed, and deep inside, they felt almost an illusion of being in love.
"Eighty billion, once."
Seeing nobody speak, Lan Yue Yuxue began to count, pausing five seconds each time.
"Eighty billion, twice."
"Eighty billion, three times!"
"Congratulations..."
"Eighty billion and ten million." Just as Lan Yue Yuxue was about to finalize with the hammer, suddenly a playful female voice rang out.
With the sound, everyone turned their attention to the private box where Yu Shilong and his group were seated.
Inside the box, Lin Hao, Yu Shilong, Yu Sen, and Yu Jianghe all looked at Nangong Wan’er in surprise.
Because the bidder was none other than her!
"What are you doing?" Yu Song asked, "We can’t bid for this item, if we win it, there will be trouble."
"Don’t worry." Nangong Wan’er playfully said, "I’m just raising by ten million, they won’t give up on it."
Lin Hao was indifferent.
The auction was almost over, and he hadn’t expected Mingyang Sect to get on their nerves one last time...
Surely, Yi Lingchuan’s expression must be quite a sight now.
"Damn it!"
As Lin Hao predicted, Yi Lingchuan was almost at his breaking point, his face turning dark and then bright, swearing loudly.
"Brother, calm down." Tian Shuang rolled his eyes, "It’s just ten million, it’s nothing."
"Ten million is nothing, but I can’t swallow the indignity. Yu Family, Lin Hao, wait till the auction ends, I will destroy you all!"
After leaving these harsh words with a fierce look, Yi Lingchuan grimly shouted, "Eighty billion and twenty million."
"Impressive, impressive." Nangong Wan’er playfully said, "You really are a god of wealth, that sword is yours, I didn’t plan to take it."
"Hmph."
From the sound system, Yi Lingchuan’s cold snort rang out, urging, "Miss Xue, what are you waiting for, bring down the hammer quickly."
"All right, is there no more bidding?"
Lan Yue Yuxue counted to three again, and after confirming no more bids, she finally struck with her hammer.
"Bang!"
The deal was sealed!
The Treasure Sword sold for eighty billion!
A tsunami of applause erupted in the hall.
"Ladies and gentlemen, today’s auction concludes here. Yuxue sincerely thanks everyone for gracing us with your presence!" The spotlight on the auction stage turned off, lights in all directions lit up, and Lan Yue Yuxue slowly retreated backstage.
Then, a beautiful female voice emerged from the hotel’s sound system, informing everyone on how to collect their won items, and the prices they sold for.
Many people stood up and started to leave the hotel.
"Kid, your time is up." In the Emperor Level 01 private room, Yi Lingchuan looked extremely troubled, "Second Elder, would you like to join me?"
"Yes, I also want to see what kind of person can wipe out the Gu Family and kill Jiang He." Ye Liangsi spoke calmly, "Let’s wait outside the hotel, we can’t cause trouble here."
"Alright." A grim look flashed in Yi Lingchuan’s eyes, Lin Hao had played him well this time, and he had to teach him a lesson.
In the supreme private room.
Yu Shilong and his group were also preparing to leave, instructing Yu Song to retrieve the money for Lin Hao.
Just as they were about to leave.
Outside the private room, a knocking sound was heard.
"Who?" Yu Jianghe cautiously asked.
"It’s me, Lan Yue Yuxue." Outside, a pleasant giggle transmitted, "This young lady has come to deliver the Ice Mountain Snow Lotus."
"Is there such a service?" Lin Hao looked at Yu Song.
"No." Yu Song replied, "Usually, one should call someone to collect it themselves, we haven’t even paid yet, could there be another reason?"
"Yu Song, go open the door." Yu Shilong smiled kindly, "Don’t let Miss Xue wait long, this is Mittel Hotel, nothing will happen."
"I’ll go." Yu Jianghe still felt a bit worried, volunteered, and went to open the door.
Outside, Lan Yue Yuxue stood charmingly in a cheongsam, her elegant eyes fixating on Yu Jianghe, "Mr. Yu, this young lady has brought you the snow lotus."
Yu Jianghe dared not meet her gaze, his eyes shifted to the snow lotus behind her, "Hmm, leave the item here, you’re done."
"Hehe..." Lan Yue Yuxue chuckled lightly, "Are you being so indifferent, Mr. Yu? I’m in a hurry to send someone away, but this young lady has another purpose for coming here."
