Chapter 1307: Chapter 1307: Auction of the Valepeak Buddha Flame_1 Chapter 1307: Chapter 1307: Auction of the Valepeak Buddha Flame_1 “Mr. Smith, I would advise you not to touch this thing.”

However, at this moment, Clay Freeman's words sounded like a bucket of cold water being poured on Ethan Smith's head.

Ethan Smith frowned and asked, “Why?”

Clay Freeman explained, “Once this kind of thing appears, there will be a scramble for it. If you don't have enough strength, even if you win the bid, it would just be a waste of money.”

“Indeed. Possessing the treasure but inviting calamity,” Alfred Freeman chimed in and nodded.

Ethan Smith kept silent. Although their words made sense, he still wanted to give it a try.

“Valepeak Buddha Flame, starting bid of three million magic coins,” the auctioneer said with a smile.

“Three million, there's still hope!” Ethan Smith thought to himself.

Bids were quickly raised at the scene.

“I bid four million!”

“Five million!”

“Seven million!”

“Nine million!”

The price soared in just a few moments, reaching ten million.

This immediately shattered Ethan Smith's confidence. He could only muster just over ten million, a price that he couldn't afford.

Soon, the price for the Valepeak Buddha Flame climbed to a whopping twenty-eight million.

Even so, people's enthusiasm remained undiminished.

“This bidding is getting boring. Thirty-five million!” At this point, Clay Freeman raised his hand and shouted.

Ethan Smith glanced at Clay Freeman and whispered, “Are you also interested in the Valepeak Buddha Flame?”

Clay Freeman waved his hand dismissively, “I'm not interested at all. This thing is worthless to me.”

“Then why did you raise the price?” asked Ethan Smith.

From the side, Alfred Freeman spoke up, “In any case, someone will keep raising the price. He just wanted to show off and make a good impression on the auctioneer.”

Upon hearing this, Ethan Smith couldn't help but smile and shake his head.

This pair of brothers really went out of their way just to show off.

After a short while, the price for the Valepeak Buddha Flame reached fifty million.

At this point, the scene began to quiet down gradually.

Even for the aristocratic families, this was no small sum.

“Fifty million, enough for me to drink for a lifetime,” Clay Freeman remarked sarcastically.

In the end, the Valepeak Buddha Flame was sold for fifty-three million.

The person who won the bid was an elderly man with white hair and a hunched posture.

Although his aura was concealed, one could still sense his extraordinary power.

Ethan Smith sighed in his heart. Without enough strength, buying things at an auction was simply unreliable.

Because no matter how much one bought, it might not necessarily end up belonging to the buyer.

For the rest of the time, Ethan Smith was practically a bystander.

He eagerly awaited the appearance of Life Aura, but unfortunately, it never appeared by the end of the auction.

Many treasures appeared during this auction, but none could compare to the Valepeak Buddha Flame.

“The auction has come to an end. Thank you all for participating,” said the Female Auctioneer with a smile.

“Let's go.” Clay Freeman rushed backstage with Alfred Freeman in tow.

After some thought, Ethan Smith also followed.

Upon arriving backstage, everyone was lining up to pick up their auction items.

In charge of this was the Female Auctioneer from before.

When it was Clay Freeman's turn, he spat on his hair and slicked it back.

He then put on what he thought was a handsome expression and approached the auctioneer.

The moment the auctioneer caught sight of Clay Freeman, her brow furrowed slightly, and her disdain was obvious.

Out of professional courtesy, she still politely said, “Sir, please take your auction item.”

Clay Freeman smirked and casually picked up a flower from the auction items.

The flower had an enchanting fragrance and medicinal properties, making it highly coveted.

Waving the flower in front of the auctioneer, Clay Freeman said nonchalantly, “This is your auction item.”

Ethan Smith, who was standing by, couldn't help but burst into laughter at the scene.

The Female Auctioneer's face turned frosty.

Suppressing her anger, she said, “Sir, please behave yourself.”

Clay Freeman looked slightly embarrassed. Since this move had failed, he decided to bring up his grandfather.

“I'm the grandson of Randall Freeman, and I'm his most favored grandson,” he said.

“One of!” Alfred Freeman quickly chimed in from the side.

The Female Auctioneer's expression turned even colder.

“Does it matter to me? Even if you belong to one of the top nine families, it has nothing to do with me,” the Female Auctioneer coldly replied.

Looking increasingly embarrassed, Clay Freeman backed away, while Alfred Freeman laughed heartily at the side.

Seeing an opportunity, Ethan Smith stepped forward and said, “My friend, may I ask if your auction house has any Life Aura?”

The Female Auctioneer sized up Ethan Smith and said with a smile, “It's hard to say, sometimes we have it and sometimes we don't.”

Ethan Smith bowed and said, “If it's not too much trouble, please help me. If your auction house obtains some Life Aura, please let me know.”

After some thought, the Female Auctioneer nodded and replied, “Sure. How do I contact you?”

“Oh, I'll be staying at the Heros Bar for the time being,” said Ethan Smith with a smile.

“Alright, if there is any, I will definitely inform you,” the Female Auctioneer promised with a smile.
