Chapter 1189: Chapter 1189: Battle of the Geniuses

Ling Xiao had three targets—the Ghost Shadow Sword, the Ghost Killing Mother and Child Swords, and the Imperial Jade Seal.

Unless there appeared an item that particularly moved him, he certainly wouldn’t make an offer.

Finally, when the auction reached the sixteenth item, the Ghost Killing Mother and Child Swords made their appearance.

Divine Artifacts, which many people paid close attention to.

The starting bid also reached a staggering ten million Low-grade Spirit Stones.

Although the Ghost Killing Mother and Child Swords had a smaller audience, being Divine Artifacts, there were still many bidders.

As Yun Ya announced the start of the auction, the prices surged layer upon layer, instantly reaching twenty-three million Low-grade Spirit Stones, which was beyond what many Martial Artists could afford.

Twenty-three million Low-grade Spirit Stones! Apart from the already wealthy families, perhaps only Alchemists could afford such a high price.

This shows how scarce Divine Artifacts are on both the Heavenly Dragon Continent and the Divine Phoenix Continent.

"Twenty-five million!"

A cold voice, sharp as Sword Qi in the crisp autumn, came from the box next to Ling Xiao.

Truly flush with cash, Mo Shao You has the whole Blue Wave Island supporting him; twenty-five million Low-grade Spirit Stones must be insignificant to him.

Although one could not see into the boxes, the cold and deadly aura was familiar enough for many to feel its familiarity.

It was like a blood-soaked Treasured Sword on the battlefield, ready to harvest lives. Some Martial Artists with slightly lower Cultivation Levels turned pale and trembled uncontrollably.

"Life-taking Sword Mo Shao You!"

People guessed this person’s identity.

Perhaps only Mo Shao You dared to release his Sword Intent so unrestrainedly inside the Black Wind Building.

Because he is the Young Island Master of Blue Wave Island, he need not give face even to the Black Python Clan.

Not only does he have powerful backing, but his own strength is also extraordinary. Below the Cave Heaven Realm, there truly aren’t many who would dare to oppose him.

Thus, after Mo Shao You spoke, almost everyone present at the auction chose to stop bidding.

It really wasn’t worth offending Mo Shao You for a set of Divine Artifacts.

Even people with higher Cultivation Levels than Mo Shao You did not want to provoke him.

Mo Shao You nodded in satisfaction, ready to enjoy the joy of victory.

But suddenly, he heard a calm voice from the adjacent cabin.

"Twenty-six million Low-grade Spirit Stones!"

"Friend, no matter who you are, give me Mo Shao You some face; let’s be able to speak amiably when we meet in the future. Twenty-seven million Low-grade Spirit Stones, and the item is mine."

Mo Shao You even revealed his identity, intending to warn the person in the adjacent box, hoping they understood who they were competing against.

"Sorry, I don’t know who Mo Shao You is; whoever has more money gets the item, that’s the way of the auction. Twenty-eight million!"

Ling Xiao had many Low-grade Spirit Stones.

Especially after annihilating the True Demon Empire, he discovered a large quantity of Spirit Stones in the national treasury of the True Demon Empire.

Although most of them were used for national construction, he still took some, because coming to Crime City to attend the auction without Spirit Stones wouldn’t work.

"Ungrateful brat!"

Mo Shao You’s face darkened extremely.

"Senior Brother, it seems like it’s those three people we encountered on Black Street before!"

The girl beside Mo Shao You recognized Ling Xiao’s voice.

"Is it him?"

Mo Shao You paused, suddenly recalling Leng Mei’s face; he was somewhat wary of her.

Although the Ghost Killing Mother and Child Swords were precious, they were not what he needed, and as for the gift for his Senior Sister, he could choose something else.

Getting the Ghost Shadow Sword mattered most.

Think of the big picture!

With that thought, Mo Shao You chuckled, "Twenty-eight million seems a bit too much; if you like it, I’ll let you have it. But for the upcoming Ghost Shadow Sword, I hope you won’t compete, otherwise, I, Mo Shao You, won’t be courteous next time."

It’s both a concession and a threat.

Mo Shao You indeed gave up on continuing to bid.

Ling Xiao successfully acquired the Ghost Killing Mother and Child Swords.

Although the price was somewhat high, he didn’t feel a loss at all about the gift for Leng Mei.

After the auction of the Ghost Killing Mother and Child Swords, the next item, the seventeenth in the sequence, was the even more valuable Ghost Shadow Sword.

From the start, Mo Shao You bid on this sword, the starting price was ten million, he bid only eleven million!

Because he wanted to buy this sword at a low price.

Many people who had originally planned to bid backed out, feeling helpless in their hearts.

However, this time, Mo Shao You miscalculated again.

"Twelve million low-grade Spirit Stones!"

The bidder, also in the VIP box next to Mo Shao You’s, was on his right rather than on his left where Ling Xiao was.

"Hmph, really think that I, Mo Shao You, am easy to bully? Even cats and dogs dare to compete with me for items?"

Violent killing intent and aggressive Sword Intent surged towards the VIP box on the right.

He really didn’t believe this; if he couldn’t provoke the person in the box on the left, could it be that he couldn’t provoke the person on the right either?

"Mo Shao You, you bastard, how does my bid bother you? If you want the Ghost Shadow Sword, just raise more money, don’t be aggressive!"

The VIP box on the right also erupted with a strong combative intent, and the shadow of a Giant Python appeared, blocking Mo Shao You’s Sword Intent.

"Is it a person from the Black Python Clan, Mang Xiao, the Clan Elder?"

"Yes, it’s Mang Xiao, the Clan Elder!"

Although the crowd didn’t dare to participate in the auction, they found this scene very satisfying.

Mo Shao You threatened them with his momentum not to participate in the bidding, but now that he has met a competitor, they are very happy to watch the excitement.

If there is anyone among the young people in Crime City who dares to contend with Mo Shao You, it would definitely be Mang Xiao from the Black Python Clan.

Mang Xiao’s Cultivation Level is higher than Mo Shao You’s.

Their strengths are actually quite equivalent.

After all, the title of Life-taking Sword for Mo Shao You isn’t for nothing; fighting against higher levels is a common occurrence for him.

"Fine, you say I don’t have money, then I’ll bid twenty million low-grade Spirit Stones!"

Mo Shao You snorted coldly, knowing the identity of his opponent, knowing he was troublesome, and not daring to use force, simply raised the auction price to twenty million directly.

"Twenty-one million!"

Mang Xiao, while clashing with Mo Shao You’s Sword Intent, made his bid.

In the eyes of the crowd, today’s auction seemed not about who could bid higher, but more like a competition of strength.

"Thirty million!"

Mo Shao You once again increased the bid by nine million low-grade Spirit Stones in one go.

At the same time, the terrifying Sword Intent almost pierced through the entire VIP box.

The people outside could clearly see that VIP box shaking continuously.

"The Life-taking Sword truly lives up to its name; today he seems set on getting the Ghost Shadow Sword, otherwise, he wouldn’t have offered such a high price, several million low-grade Spirit Stones more than for the Ghost Killing Mother and Child Swords."

"Not just that, his uncompromising momentum, seems ready to risk making an enemy of Mang Xiao, the Clan Elder."

"This is what you call ’determined to win’, I guess no one can stop him now."

Mang Xiao didn’t bid anymore, as he needed to use all his strength to counter Mo Shao You.

Boom!

Suddenly, a huge booming sound echoed in the air.

The connected three VIP boxes were actually completely flipped over, also revealing the people inside.
