Chapter 231: Chapter 232: Auction of the Four Precious Flowers

"Ouyang Jian, what’s with this hobby of yours? Do you enjoy being tied up?" Ximen Hai asked with a look of shock.

"Cough cough, Young Master Ximen, you are not aware... I was kidnapped, and they even used my name and spent my money to auction..." Ouyang Jian said with a face full of resentment.

What?

How could this be!

Ximen Hai was furious, "I am right here, and you still don’t release Ouyang Jian?"

"Release him?" Ye Wudao said with a faint smile, "Heh, if you want him released, you’ll have to pay the ransom!"

"What, you dare to ask me for a ransom?" Ximen Hai scoffed, "Brat, are you not aware of my reputation? I’ll count to three, and if you don’t release him, I swear I’ll level this place today!"

"Three!"

"Two!"

"One!"

Seeing that the others didn’t flinch after he counted to three, Ximen Hai immediately shouted in anger, "Kill them!"

"Yes, Young Master!" A dozen powerful members of the Ximen Family charged toward Ye Wudao and his group.

Ye Wudao’s eyes flashed with a chilling glint, the Beiwang Blade in hand, and with a swift motion, the blade fell!

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

Several of the Ximen Family’s experts screamed in agony as they fell into pools of blood.

Hiss!

The remaining experts from the Ximen Family retreated in fear.

"The Beiwang Blade indeed lives up to its reputation for sharpness!" Ye Wudao was taken aback by the overwhelming power of the Beiwang Blade. It wasn’t even one percent of its power, if restored, it would definitely be a Divine Artifact.

"You brat, how dare you kill members of my Ximen Family, you’re seeking death!" Ximen Hai roared in a great rage. As a strong Sixth Rank of the True Body Realm, he struck out boldly.

Bang!

Ye Wudao swung his blade and powerfully severed Ximen Hai’s arm.

"Aaah, my hand!" Ximen Hai screamed in pain, but before he could finish, a terrifying killing intent suddenly rose from his neck.

Ye Wudao was seen holding the Beiwang Blade against his neck.

"What, what do you want to do? I— I warn you, I am the eldest young master of the Ximen Family, if you dare to kill me, my family will never rest until you’re dead!" Ximen Hai threatened.

"Dare to threaten me?" Ye Wudao’s eyes flashed coldly, and he harbored thoughts of killing.

"Little Ye, don’t kill this brat just yet, he’s still useful for now!" the Ghost Doctor intervened.

"Humph, lucky for you that this old man knows what’s good for him!" Ximen Hai sneered.

"What use is there? We might as well kill him!" Ye Wudao said indifferently.

"Hehe, the final highlight item of the auction is about to start, and it’s related to you!" the Ghost Doctor said with a chuckle.

Oh?

As they were speaking, Ye Wudao turned his gaze toward the auction hall.

They saw Master Yang with a smile, "Ladies and gentlemen, the next item we’re presenting is the highlight of tonight’s auction!"

With that, Master Yang opened a treasure box, revealing a blood-red flower that emitted a rich scent of blood.

"What kind of flower is this?"

"How come I’ve never seen it before?"

Many people in the audience looked curious.

Master Yang said cheerfully, "Many of you may not recognize it, but this flower has a significant pedigree. It is one of the Four Precious Flowers, the Phoenix Flower, fabled to grow only next to cliffs where divine birds reside, possessing the power to bring the dead back to life!"

Boom!

Phoenix Flower!

The entire place was thrown into an uproar!

The five great aristocratic families, including the clan’s powerhouses, were all stirred!

They were here today for this very Phoenix Flower!

"Phoenix Flower? Could it be..." Ye Wudao looked shocked.

"Correct, you have gathered the Four Beasts Grass, and with the Four Precious Flowers, your realm will be able to return to its peak!" the Ghost Doctor said smilingly.

Ye Wudao’s eyes couldn’t help but blaze with fervor!

This Phoenix Flower, he had to win it!

"Master Yang, start the auction!" urged a powerhouse from one of the five great families.

"Hehe, no matter the cost, I must win this Phoenix Flower!" declared another powerhouse of the Seventh Rank of the True Body Realm who couldn’t contain himself.

Master Yang announced with a smile, "The final highlight of the auction, one of the Four Precious Flowers, the Phoenix Flower, will now begin the bidding at ten billion, with each increment being no less than one billion!"

"One hundred and ten billion!"

"One hundred and twenty billion!"

"One hundred and fifty billion!"

In just a few minutes, the price of the Phoenix Flower had skyrocketed to an intimidating one hundred and fifty billion.

The five great families made their moves one after another, none willing to concede!

Just then, a domineering voice came from the fifth floor, "I am an elder of the Huangfu clan, offering two hundred billion, who dares to compete?"

Boom!

The whole room fell into deathly silence!

"It’s an elder from the Huangfu clan!"

"This is one of the three great clans in Capital City!"

"In terms of strength and status, they are even above the great families!"

The five great families fell silent for a moment before, one by one, they gave up, "Since it’s an elder from the Huangfu clan, the Murong family withdraws!"

"The Yun Family voluntarily gives up!"

Soon, several of the great families gave up one after another.

Are you kidding me!

Although the Phoenix Flower is very precious!

Life is even more precious!

Daring to compete with the Huangfu clan would be the end of the five great families!

Master Yang also knew what was best, and said, "A representative of the Huangfu clan bids two hundred billion once, two hundred billion twice, two hundred billion..."

Before he finished speaking, a sharp young voice interjected, "I, Ximen Hai, Ouyang Jian, refuse to accept this, bidding three hundred billion! Anyone who dares to compete, I’ll have my father chop you to death!"

Boom!

The entire auction hall went silent again!

"Good heavens, the two prodigal sons of the Ximen and Ouyang families, have they gone mad?"

"To not even give face to an elder from the Huangfu clan?"

At the same time, in the private boxes of the Ximen and Ouyang families.

The powerhouses of the two families were all shocked, "Weren’t our young masters out seeking revenge? What’s going on?"

"Although our young masters are prodigal, they wouldn’t dare offend the representative of the Huangfu family!"

The two family elders’ faces changed, and they spoke simultaneously, "This is bad, that voice isn’t our young masters’, they must be in trouble, hurry and report to the family head!"

Inside the auction hall, there was silence, everyone was waiting for the representative of the Huangfu family to react!

Finally.

The powerhouse of the Huangfu family was furious.

"Presumptuous, the mere Ximen and Ouyang families dare to challenge the Huangfu clan? Are you seeking death?"

"Psh, what are you, the Huangfu clan, in front of our two families? Nothing but dog farts! If you have the money then bid, if you don’t have the money then scram, don’t disturb this lord’s mood!" Ye Wudao sneered.

Ye Wudao’s words immediately scared Ximen Hai and Ouyang Jian, who were tied up, into wetting themselves on the spot, "Grandpa, please don’t speak anymore, I beg of you, stop tormenting us!"

"Just kill me with one strike!"

Meanwhile!

In the fifth-floor private box of the Huangfu clan.

"Dammit!" The Huangfu elder slammed his palm down and shattered the tea table, veins throbbing on his face, "These two mere families dare to underestimate our Huangfu clan! Relay my order, summon the heads of the Ximen and Ouyang families immediately, if they dare not give me a satisfying answer, today, I shall annihilate both of their great families!"

"Understood!"

...

Master Yang, the auctioneer, was also taken aback, having never seen such a scene before!

"Xi, Ximen young master, Ouyang young master, offering three hundred billion..." Master Yang spoke feebly, and seeing that the representative of the Huangfu clan had no response, he whispered timidly, "Three hundred billion once, three hundred billion twice, three hundred billion three times, sold, congratulations to the two young masters!"

"It’s done!" Ye Wudao made a ’yeah’ gesture.

"We’re done for!"

"We’ve offended the Huangfu clan, now we’re dead for sure!" Both prodigal young masters fainted on the spot due to extreme shock.
