Chapter 105: 105: Stone Ore Bidding

A sudden, high-raised bid echoes in the hall: 100 million. Yue Xuexia, without batting an eye, bid for this price. After hearing this bid, Young Master Tian knew how important those two small stone ores are to this lady, and this bid alone shows how deep her pockets are.

Lin Chiyu asked, "Divine... cough! My lady, are you sure you want to bid 100 million?"

"Um," Yue Xuexia said as she rubbed the cat in her hand. It was as if the 100 million was just a mere cabbage she could throw away without caring.

Young Master Tian Qiuya intently observed the white-veiled lady in front of him. He actually didn't truly want that stone ore and just wanted to try his luck with the $100 million he had with him. But it seems he had no fate with the stone ore he fancied.

Young Master Tian surrendered, "I gave up the bid. Congratulations!"

"Thank you," said Yue Xuexia as she nodded towards Tian Qiuya, raised her black card, and swiped it at the card reader carried by the stunned hall ground staff standing besides Lin Chiyu.

Beep! The sound of the transaction being completed was heard. Meanwhile, Tian Qiuya's eyes slightly widened when he saw the customized card in Yue Xuexia's hand, and he recalled his grandfather's story from the past few weeks.

Young Master Tian spoke, "So, it was the esteemed guest of my family bank. My lady, I hope I didn't offend you with this mini auction."

"No problem. You followed the rules and did nothing wrong. I don't mind. Tell Grandpa Tian I might be able to visit him after the new year," said Yue Xuexia.

Young Master Tian Qiuya bowed his head and said, "I shall pass your message to Grandfather. He will definitely be happy about this news. I shall go home and inform Grandfather about the lady's message. Please excuse me." He truly left the hall after saying these words. After recognizing who Yue Xuexia is, he no longer wasted his time and wanted to go to the old mansion and inform his grandfather, Tian Qiuji, about Yue Xuexia. It can be said that his grandfather liked Yue Xuexia so much that his family knows about her, especially the younger generations.

The departure of Tian Qiuya didn't mean much, but those who recognized him knew that his father is the multi-billionaire, Old Tian Qiuji, who owns the Autumn Field Bank. They understood that this mysterious young lady might have a connection to Senior Tian and were relieved that they didn't offend her.

Yue Xuexia looked at the masked old gentleman and said, "Let's begin the second auction."

"Um, you can start," said the old gentleman.

Lin Chiyu spoke and said, "The stone is on my right hand. The starting bid is... 3 million."

Yue Xuexia was the one who spoke first this time. "100 million."

Gasp!

The audience collectively gasped at the similar high price that this young lady bid at the last mini-auction. This price had sent the young master of the Tian Clan home, but would this old gentleman be able to outbid this young lady?

The old gentleman said, "200 million."

Hiss!

"400 million," said Yue Xuexia.

The old gentleman bids, "800 million."

"1.6 billion."

"3.5 billion."

"10 billion," said Yue Xuexia.

When the bid reached 10 billion bids, the old gentleman's eyes showed a stunned expression. He asked, "Young lady, this stone is extremely important to this old man. Would you please surrender it to me?"

At this question, Yue Xuexia looked at Taiyang, who looked confused while he was being stared at, and just smiled at Yue Xuexia, who was throwing money for the stone. On the other hand, Shen Jueyang closely observed the stone ore, which Yue Xuexia is interested in, and was stunned, as he didn't expect such a godly ore would exist in this lower realm.

[Xue'er, do you plan on giving that ore to Yangyang?]

Yue Xuexia, who didn't expect the system to speak with him in his mind at this moment, responded in her thoughts, 'Yes. Do you think it will be useful to the Yangyang system?' she asked. If he answers no, then she will give it to the old gentleman in front of him, who gives him a familiar feeling.

[It's useless to him, but it's extremely useful to me.]. Can you give this stone to me?]

This is the first time Yue Xuexia has heard that the system wants something. Now she is even more determined to win it. After all, it's just money. With the dividends of all of her companies and her stocks, she can earn them again.

'Okay!'

Yue Xuexia lowered her head and spoke to the old gentleman. "I'm sorry. I know what is inside, and it's a gift I planned to give to a friend. I can't surrender it to grandpa."

Upon hearing this, the old gentleman sighed. His arrival in this hall is unexpected. He just planned to pick up a friend and didn't expect to see this unknown stone filled with yang energy. He wanted to buy it, but this young lady doesn't seem to lack money while he only has a few billions with him. He can only give up and find another one with strong yang energy.

Sigh~

The old gentleman said, "Okay, I give up. As I feel that you wouldn't stop raising the bidding until I give up." As he was about to leave, this young lady held the corner of his sleeves and made him look at her again. "Is there something else?"

Yue Xuexia nodded her head and looked through the cart, which was paid for by Tan Bingyu, and picked up the two small stone ore pieces with light-type raw gemstones in them. Though the yang energy in these two small stone ores isn't as powerful as the one in the sun stone,. At least the yang energy in it is purer than a fist-sized fire-type gemstone. She picked them up and gave them to the old gentleman, who gave him a kind and familiar aura.

"This is... for me?"

The old gentleman was stunned, as he could feel that there was enough yang energy in these two stones. Though it was weaker than the one he wanted, this will be enough to help him raise a small level in his cultivation.

Yue Xuexia said, "Yes, it's small, but it should be useful to you."

"Child, how did you..."

He wanted to inquire about something with the young lady when he noticed a deadly aura targeting him. He looked around and didn't see the source, but for some reason, this aura gives him a feeling that it wants to stop him from inquiring about the young lady. He chose not to risk his life.

He changed his words and said, "Thank you. I will pay for it."

Yue Xuexia nodded her head and allowed Tan Bingyu to communicate with the transfer of money. Yue Xuexia also paid for the other stones, including the $10 billion bid she made just now. For the second cart of stone ores, 1.2 billion was paid in total by this young lady. When she turned around, the old gentleman was gone, and Tan Bingyu returned to her side, carrying a small dagger in her hands. It's a spirit-rank weapon artifact.

"Mistress, that senior said this is a gift for you," said Tan Bingyu.

Yue Xuexia and Taiyang observed the dagger and saw its attributes.

[Millennium Nightshade Poison Dagger]

Attributes: Poison

Effects: It can paralyze and poison anyone that is sliced by its blade. It possessed a spirit weapon but hadn't awakened yet. Can be bound by blood for ownership. Once bound, you will not be affected by any poison in the mortal and cultivated realm. It can be refined.]

[To awaken the spirit of the Nightshade Poison Dagger, the following are needed: a drop of moonlight essence, a piece of moonstone, and a thousand types of poison. Note: Be careful when using it. This knife had no antidote yet.]

Yue Xuexia asked, "Did he say something else?"

"He said this is for protection and to be careful on your way home. There are scavengers in this hall," answered Tan Bingyu.

Yue Xuexia mumbled in confusion, "Scavengers?"

"It's an evil group of treasure hunting cultivators. They love stealing the treasures of others and love to brutally kill their victims. No one knows their origin. If they are here, they might be targeting this auction hall, but please be careful on your way back," explained Lin Chiyu.

Even after hearing these words, Yue Xuexia and Taiyang remained calm. If those scavengers truly target them, then they can only exterminate the pest for the world. Just when everyone was about to head to the cutting stone section, they were once again blocked. It was the other young man who hadn't spoken after blocking them the first time. The one with a disgusting type of gaze.

Lin Chiyu frowned with a dark face. He knew the rumors about this bastard. "What the hell do you want, Young Master Xue?"

"I am not here for you. Get out of the way!"

Young Master Xue Mengyan is different from the other two who wanted the stone ore. What he wanted were the ladies in this group. His immortal eyes keep wondering about Yue Xuexia and Tan Bingyu on the ground. Taiyang and Lin Chiyu, who noticed that, were pissed and looked at him even more unfriendlyly. These eyes of his had angered the devil; he shouldn't have pissed off.

"Two gorgeous ladies~ how about entertaining this young master? Don't worry, I can send you both to heaven~ hehe!" said Young Master Xue Mengyan.

Lin Chiyu and Tan Bingyu looked at this young man, who seeks death without being afraid. Then they turn around to see Yue Xuexia acting as if she didn't hear anything and Taiyang, who looked like he snapped and was now covered in a dangerous aura.

Taiyang looked at Lin Chiyu and asked, "Where did this fool hail from?"

"Lord Taiyang, he is Xue Mengyan, the cousin of Xue Yan whom you crippled in the last auction. They have connections with the Snow Clan from that realm, but they also have a clan in this realm," Lin Chiyu answered respectfully.

Taiyang looked at Tan Bingyu and said, "Tell your father to uproot the Xue Clan in this realm. As for the trash in that realm, I will personally visit them tonight. You also handled those stones, but not for these two." He took the stone ores emitting sun and moon energies in them. With a flip of his hands, it disappeared on the spot and was hidden in the system inventory. As a person connected to the system, he is able to control it as well.

The two responded, "Yes, my lord!"

Upon hearing these words, Lin Chiyu and Tan Bingyu shivered unconsciously. They knew what it meant for this man to make his move. The two lowered their heads and responded politely to Taiyang's words. Yue Xuexia didn't comment much, as she felt that this disgusting man also didn't deserve to leave. As for the family that gives birth to it, there is no way for them to be a good clan seeing that thing bastard grew up this way. If they can disappear in this realm, then that would be for the better for the mortals of this realm.

Taiyang escorted Yue Xuexia, and on their way, Young Master Xue Mengyan, who was ignored openly, blocked them this time. He keeps on staring at Yue Xuexia beside Taiyang.

Young master Xue spoke, "I don't care if the man leaves, but you have to leave the girl. She is mine!"

"Oh, who is yours? Tell me again?" asked Taiyang.

The young master, Xue Mengyan, happily wanted to repeat his words.

"I told you... she is." 

BOOM!

But he could no longer complete his words. Under everyone's gaze, Young Master Xue Mengyan exploded into a pool of blood, leaving pieces of his clothes soaked in blood. Screams echo in the hall; After all, everyone has witnessed a human exploding for no reason.

AAAAHHHH!!!
