Chapter 297: Chapter 298: Buy! Buy! Buy! (2nd Update) (Please Bookmark, Tip, and Recommend)

Chu Fengmian’s power, although restrained, appeared even more terrifying than before to Qian Ya, who observed from aside.

If Qian Ya could discern a thing or two about Chu Fengmian’s capabilities earlier, now he was like an unfathomably deep abyss.

She felt only mystery and fear.

"What exactly happened? Why has his strength changed so drastically? Could it be that he was concealing his true power before? Is this his full strength now?"

Qian Ya’s mind was filled with countless questions. Chu Fengmian was an enigma to her, and facing him only brought endless mystery.

Chu Fengmian refined the Spiritual Medicine and enhanced his strength in just an instant.

"The next item for auction is a celestial meteorite, Red Flame Stone, a top contender among fire-element materials, suitable for crafting earth-level Spiritual Artifacts, starting bid, fifty thousand Nine Tripods Pills."

The elder on the stand once more presented a fiercely burning rock. The price of this Red Flame Stone was lower than that of the Dragon Birth Grass but was still a rare item.

With the impending wars among the six nations, everyone needed to boost their strength as much as possible, and this Red Flame Stone, combined with some materials, was enough to craft a new Spiritual Artifact.

Thus, the price immediately began to soar crazily.

"I bid one hundred thousand!"

"I bid one hundred fifty thousand!"

"Two hundred thousand!"

"Three hundred thousand!"

Loud and fierce shouts drove the price of the Red Flame Stone skyward.

"One million!"

A furious voice suddenly rang out.

This voice came from box number seven, belonging to Zhao Xiong.

Having already purchased the Dragon Birth Grass, Chu Fengmian was determined to obtain this Red Flame Stone.

The attendees sensed Zhao Xiong’s anger and dared not compete with him.

After all, at that moment, no one dared to challenge Zhao Xiong without facing swift retribution.

"One million for this Red Flame Stone? I bid one and a half million!"

A mocking voice suddenly emerged, belonging to Chu Fengmian from box number thirteen.

"Here we go again."

"There’s going to be a good show."

"Who exactly is in box thirteen? Could they be enemies of the Zhao family?"

"Regardless, today’s auction just became interesting."

Many who heard Chu Fengmian’s voice chuckled and chattered, eagerly watching to see Zhao Xiong defeated.

"Sir, aren’t you being a bit too excessive?"

Zhao Xiong roared angrily, his words laced with threats.

"Do you truly wish to oppose our Zhao family? Be careful, you might not even know how you die."

"Two million Nine Tripods Pills!"

Zhao Xiong slammed his chair and stood up, instantly turning his chair to dust, clearly showing his fury.

"Two and a half million!"

Chu Fengmian’s calm voice rose again, tinted with a hint of mockery.

"Relying on others to intimidate, are we? This is an auction, meant for a financial showdown, are you really resorting to violence now?"

Hearing Chu Fengmian’s words, Zhao Xiong’s face turned livid.

As the chief steward of the Zhao family, he had naturally used the Zhao family’s power countless times to oppress others, but in Chu Fengmian’s words, the phrase "acting tough with backup" was undoubtedly a complete insult to him.

Accusing him of being a dog.

As the Zhao family’s chief steward, a standout among Semi-Saints, countless saints had always shown him the utmost respect, yet now he was being called a dog abusing his master’s power, causing his face to turn bright red.

"You little beast! You’re seeking death!"

Zhao Xiong cursed, his words filled with murderous intent.

"Twenty-five million! If you dare to bid again, you will surely die today!"

"Hmph! Thirty million! With just a few of Zhao family’s dogs like you, you dare to threaten me? Isn’t it just about who has more Nine Tripods Pills? If you have the guts, come compete!"

Chu Fengmian laughed heartily, each mention of ’Zhao family’s dogs’ infuriating those Zhao family disciples, making steam practically come out of their ears, their Divine Senses wildly fluctuating.

Waves of Divine Senses crazily swept towards Chu Fengmian’s room, trying to ascertain Chu Fengmian’s identity.

"Scram! A bunch of rats, you want to pry into me? Overestimating yourselves!"

Chu Fengmian scoffed coldly, his figure shifted, and all those invading Divine Senses were shattered by him, and those Zhao family disciples, madly trying to discern Chu Fengmian’s identity, could see nothing but an inscrutable darkness.

"Chief steward, let’s go find those old geezers from the Nine Tripods Ancient City, see who this kid really is to dare provoke our Zhao family!"

Countless Zhao family disciples roared angrily.

"You punk, if you dare, reveal your identity since you dare defy our Zhao family, it seems you’re tired of living!"

"Reveal my identity? With just you dogs, you’re not worthy of knowing who I am. Let Zhao Wudi of your Zhao family come and kowtow three times before me. If I’m in a good mood, I might tell you."

Chu Fengmian coldly sneered.

This statement was the epitome of arrogance.

Zhao Wudi to kowtow?

Who was Zhao Wudi? The Grand Marshal of the Qin Emperor’s military force, the premier warrior of the Qin Emperor’s domain, a man who could contend with the imperial family of the Qin Emperor’s domain.

Who exactly was Chu Fengmian to be so arrogant?

Even Qian Ya, sitting beside Chu Fengmian, was shocked by his audacity to utter such words.

By uttering these words, it was nearly declaring Chu Fengmian a mortal enemy of the Zhao family, treating Zhao Wudi, a god-like figure to all Zhao family disciples, with utter disdain.

This was an utmost insult to the Zhao family.

"Quick, inform the family! Call the family’s strong members! Kill this kid!"

"Go find those old geezers from the Nine Tripods Ancient City, figure out who this person is!"

"Anyone who dares to challenge our Zhao family must die!"

Countless Zhao family disciples spoke one after the other, prepared to fight Chu Fengmian to the death.

"A bunch of paupers! I don’t have time to waste words with you, are you going to raise the price on this Red Flame Stone or not?"

Chu Fengmian completely ignored the threats from the Zhao family disciples, laughing as he spoke.

"Endure! Wait until we buy the fragment of that supreme immortal weapon, then we’ll take care of this brat completely!"

Zhao Xiong’s face turned red and then white, ultimately, he forcefully suppressed the rage burning within him.

"You little beast, today, just be arrogant a bit more, having offended our Zhao family, one day you’ll regret it."

"Regret? I’m afraid your Zhao family doesn’t have the ability to make me regret."

Chu Fengmian laughed loudly, and now the Red Flame Stone had also fallen into his hands.

Thirty million Nine Tripods Pills, Chu Fengmian straightforwardly took them out and threw them onto the stage.

Another thirty million, and now Chu Fengmian had already spent one hundred and ninety million on treasures, such a gesture was simply crazy.
