Mrs. and Mr. Smith -
Chapter 1547
Chapter 1547: Chapter 1547: A Divine Body Chapter 1547: Chapter 1547: A Divine Body These two people, one old and one young, were dressed quite luxuriously, and their faces carried a faint air of arrogance.
Soon, they approached Ethan Smith.
“Young friend, are you also here for the Azure Rock Forest Auction?” the elderly man asked with a friendly smile.
Ethan gave a slight nod and said, “Indeed.”
The elder continued, “Judging by your appearance, you must be a rogue cultivator. Let me introduce myself. I am Elder Francis Lee of Beacon Tower.”
Ethan gave a grunt, then asked, “Is there something you need?”
Francis Lee smiled, “Young friend, we of Beacon Tower are very interested in this Azure Rock Forest Auction, but unfortunately we cannot enter due to our status. Could we ask you to help us find some magical artifacts? Rest assured, we will provide the money, and there will be a generous reward after the matter is settled!”
Ethan stood up and politely replied, “Sorry, I am also very interested in the Azure Rock Forest Auction. If your sect is willing to pay for the items I like, I may consider it.”
“Kid, you're making a huge demand!” the young man next to him shouted angrily.
Ethan glanced at him and said, “I have only stated my conditions. You don't have to agree. We can just state our prices clearly. Why get angry?”
The young man opened his mouth, about to speak, but was stopped by Francis Lee.
Francis Lee smiled and said, “Young friend, your terms are indeed a bit harsh. We cannot agree to them. However… I am willing to offer one hundred and sixty thousand magic coins, how about that?”
“I'm sorry, I've already made my conditions clear.” Ethan shook his head.
“No one has ever dared to refuse Beacon Tower!” the young man shouted again.
This time, the elder beside him didn't intervene but simply closed his eyes slightly.
Ethan sneered, “So, what about it? What's Beacon Tower? I've never even heard of it before.”
By now, even the elder couldn't bear it any longer.
His face was gloomy as he said, “Young friend, you can refuse our request, but it's a bit too much to insult Beacon Tower.”
“Those who humiliate others will be humiliated themselves. I believe you understand that.” Ethan said coldly.
“Young friend, we just can't get into the Azure Rock Forest Auction due to our status, and we want you to help. Is it really that difficult?” Francis Lee said unpleasantly.
Ethan sneered, “Then why don't you quit Beacon Tower?”
“Kid, I think you're looking for death!” The young man suddenly became furious, and a strong aura exploded from him!
On the other hand, the elderly man beside him had a calm face and remained silent, but there seemed to be a faint murderous spirit around him.
“What do you want?” Ethan asked.
The young man said coldly, “Today, you'll have to agree whether you want to or not!”
Ethan was about to get angry, but suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind.
Hence, he changed his expression and smiled, “In that case, I'll agree.”
Hearing this, the two thought Ethan was frightened and immediately said, “Those who know when to be flexible are the smartest, not bad.”
Ethan continued, “I wonder how much your sect plans to spend and what items they want to buy?”
The elderly man shook his hand, took out a card, and handed it to Ethan.
“There are one billion magic coins in here. We want any and all magical artifacts,” the elder said.
“As for whether or not we can get them, that depends on your abilities.”
Looking at the card, Ethan couldn't help but sneer inwardly.
He put the card away and nodded, “Alright, I'll do my best.”
“That's more like it.” The young man snorted coldly.
The elder then smiled and said, “We'll be waiting for your good news tomorrow.”
“Fine, no problem,” Ethan nodded.
After they left, Ethan played with the card in his hand, unable to suppress his laughter.
People still give out money for free these days.
Ethan was in need of cash, and this seemed like a nice way to make some money.
With that in mind, Ethan simply got up and went to inquire about other sects one by one.
He suppressed his aura, acting like a weak person.
He didn't let any arrogant sects off the hook.
After a round of inquiries, Ethan collected a total of eight billion magic coins, promising to do his best to obtain treasures for them.
Of course, this was all nonsense. Ethan never intended to pay them back.
“With eight billion magic coins, I'm a wealthy man now,” Ethan thought to himself.
With the eight billion magic coins, he would have more confidence in tomorrow's auction.
The next day.
As soon as it was light out, Ethan got up and headed for the auction.
By this time, many people had gathered at the auction, waiting to enter.
About ten minutes later, Ethan finally entered the auction.
The interior decoration of the auction was very ordinary, and its scale wasn't even comparable to the auctions in Gowinston City.
However, in this auction house, Ethan could feel a faint sense of mysteriousness.
This feeling wasn't particularly strong, but it evoked a deep sense of dread in people's hearts.
Perhaps it was precisely for this reason that so many sects dared not enter rashly.
Ethan found a seat and waited for the auction to begin.
About ten minutes later, an extremely tall man appeared on the stage.
This man was at least three meters tall, and his muscles were incredibly robust.
Although Ethan couldn't feel his aura, his appearance alone was enough to surprise him.
“Could it be… that in the depths of the Azure Rock Forest, there is some kind of tribe living there?” Ethan speculated in his heart.
The person on the stage looked very different from ordinary cultivators, raising suspicions about their identity.
A moment later, the door slowly closed, and three more similarly tall and muscular men appeared on the stage.
They stood in the background, silent as if waiting for something.
Several minutes later, a woman in a cheongsam walked out.
The woman's appearance was enchanting, and she was at least 1.75 meters tall, making her exceptionally tall among women.
“Welcome to the Azure Rock Forest Auction.” the woman stood up and spoke.
“I am the hostess of this auction, and my name is Ned Holmes.”
Afterward, Ned read out the rules of the auction.
For example, no fighting was allowed within the auction, etc. The rules were not much different from ordinary auctions.
Ethan's eyes narrowed, and his doubts grew stronger.
In his heart, he even bred a bold idea.
After finishing reading the rules, Ned slowly retreated to one side.
Meanwhile, the tall and sturdy men brought up a huge bronze box.
The box was enormous, looking like a coffin.
Even at a great distance, one could still feel the aura emitting from that coffin.
“The first auction item is a corpse,” said Ned.
As soon as these words were spoken, the audience was in an uproar.
Everyone stared, dumbfounded.
A corpse? The first auction item was actually a corpse?
“This corpse is not an ordinary flesh and blood body, but a divine body. And before its death, it was a cultivator at the Reversion Void Stage,” said Ned with a smile.
