Volume 1: The Devil's Hand, Heavenly Doctor, Hidden Sharpness 035: Sky-High Auction!
In the carriage, Tang Xin slightly hooked up the corner of her lips, patted the cyan robe on her body, and stood up saying: "Let's go take a look too!" She changed her appearance, put on men's clothing, and changed her tone. Now even if her mother were standing in front of her, she probably wouldn't recognize her.
Xia Xue and Xia Yu exchanged a glance, their faces bearing a faint smile. Even though Mu Tianyu was the monarch of a country, in front of Miss's face, he couldn't muster up any imperial majesty, following behind Miss, they were so fortunate to have made the decision to follow her back then.
In the auction house, when those sitting in front of the various masters and famous experts saw Mo Tianyu walk out, they also guessed that he was not going to meet Ghost Hand Heavenly Doctor's face. However, seeing his calm expression, they were somewhat surprised.
Moy Tianyou is a strong martial arts master and also the ruler of a country. The stronger his power, the higher his status, and it's even harder to hide his arrogance. Originally, they were thinking about whether he would make some trouble or not, but now it seems that he can become the ruler of a country and become a powerful leader, which is not unreasonable.
"Hehe, greetings Your Majesty."
Everyone in the front row stood up, slightly bowing their waist and clasping their fists in respect. The Dragon Continent was divided into two parts: one part was under imperial rule, while the other part was a world of martial arts where heroes roamed free. The imperial power could not control these people who were in the martial arts world, nor could it control those powerful masters from various places who possessed real strength. As for ordinary people without martial arts skills and unable to cultivate, they were all under the jurisdiction of the imperial power. Those who held high positions were also powerful masters with certain strengths. Therefore, when these people outside the imperial jurisdiction saw the emperor, at most, they would only bow their heads in respect. However, when they saw the Martial Saint, they had no choice but to lower their proud heads.
"Everyone, no need for formalities, please take a seat!" A stern voice rang out, and Mo Tianyou waved his hand, indicating for everyone to sit down.
"Please, Your Majesty." Everyone else sat down after he did.
Before long, a man in magnificent attire, Huo Wei, walked up to the auction stage. As soon as he stepped up, he bowed to the crowd below and smiled: "Today, I, Huo, am truly honored to see so many distinguished guests attending this auction. I believe you all know that the renowned Ghost Hand Heavenly Doctor has arrived in the Imperial City, bringing with him three extremely precious Gathering Qi Pills for me to auction off. Due to the rarity of today's auction items, I will be personally hosting the proceedings."
Listening to Huo Wei's words on the auction stage, the crowd below held their breath in tense anticipation, finally getting to the point! Such a precious Gathering Spirit Dan, what will be the starting price? And who will it ultimately belong to?
Looking at the eager eyes of the crowd below, Huo Wei on the stage cleared his throat and said: "As instructed by Tian Yi, each person can only bid for one, and the three Gathering Qi Pills must be obtained by three people. The starting price for the auction is 1 million gold coins!"
"I'm out 120,000 gold coins!"
"I'll bet 150,000 gold coins!"
“……”
As soon as Huo Wei's voice fell, the crowd below shouted out prices, and for a time, the shouting voices of one price higher than another spread throughout the auction house.
"I'll bet 500,000 gold coins!"
"Eight hundred thousand gold coins!"
As the price kept getting higher and higher, the number of people bidding also gradually decreased. Su Zhen Nan then started bidding, opening his mouth to directly add 3 million gold coins, such a big move that it made everyone present gasp in shock.
In the Dragon and Phoenix Continent, ordinary families only spend a few silvers, even relatively well-off families only spend around 200 gold coins per year. This price of over ten thousand gold coins is unaffordable for ordinary people, except for some powerful and wealthy aristocratic families.
As soon as Su Zhen Nan's voice fell, dozens of gazes immediately fell on his body. The wealth of the Su family was well-known to most people in the room, but when he opened his mouth and said 800,000 gold coins, this astronomical price made many people dare not bid again.
"One million gold coins!" Mu Tianyou's eyes didn't even blink as he added twenty million more, this generosity left the people behind him gasping in shock.
Those sitting in the front row are all rich people! With great wealth comes great power, ordinary people wouldn't dare to compete with them. Even if they wanted to, they couldn't outdo them anyway!
Meng Tianyou bid 1 million gold coins, and Su Zhen Nan was about to raise the price when he was stopped by his father. Then, the master of the Su family stood up with a smile and said: "The Holy One must obtain the Gathering Spirit Pill, so this one will be given to the Holy One first."
Those sitting in the front row were not ordinary people, and they naturally knew the significance of Su's move. They looked at Su with ambiguous eyes, then slowly lowered their eyelids. Three聚气丹, one less still left two, let him get it first does not mean that his Su family can't buy it anymore, after all, if we talk about wealth, how many people in the scene can compare to his Su family?
Mu Tianyou glanced at him, the corner of his mouth curled up, and he smiled: "Then thank you." As soon as his voice fell, he pulled out a crystal card from his body, erased his mark, and handed it to the guard beside him to give to Huo Wei, saying: "This is a black crystal card. There are exactly one million gold coins in it. You can swipe it at any money house or high-end place in Longteng. Check it out."
The people behind him saw the black crystal card and their eyes widened. Except for Suí Yínzi, ordinary people with more than 10,000 gold coins would use a crystal card to store them, which is convenient to carry around and safer. Crystal cards are divided into three types: in addition to the most common crystal card, there are silver crystal cards and black crystal cards. When applying for an ordinary crystal card, the amount of gold coins inside cannot be less than 10,000, while a silver crystal card requires at least 200,000, and a black crystal card requires at least 500,000.
Crystal cards are also a type of storage card, a spatial card that can hold coins. In the Dragon Continent, it is extremely precious, so not everyone can have one. Just to get an ordinary crystal card, you need to spend 10,000 gold coins.
Huo Wei took it with surprise and went to the back to check. Since the crystal card that eliminates marks can be viewed by inputting spiritual power, he indeed checked that there was no mistake. After that, he returned to the front and shouted at the location of the second floor wing: "Tian Yi, it's one million gold coins, no mistake."
The eyes of the crowd in the auction hall fell on the second floor due to Huo Wei's shout, and at this time, the window door was opened, and a white figure floated down. Seeing that light and wonderful white figure, the people below held their breath.
Could it be that the Ghost Hand Heavenly Doctor is actually a woman?
Then, when that lithe figure floated down to the ground, they saw her face was delicate and pretty, with a calm and cool temperament. At such a young age, she had already reached the pinnacle of martial arts mastery. Just as everyone was wondering if she might be the legendary Ghost Hand Heaven Doctor, Huo Wei quickly stepped forward and handed her a black crystal card.
"Miss, this is a black crystal card."
Xia Xue took the black crystal card and pulled out a small bottle from her sleeve, saying: "This contains an Aggregating Qi Pill. My master has instructed that since the first pill was auctioned off for 1 million gold coins, the next two pills will be sold directly for 1 million each. Whoever in this room can afford this price, the Aggregating Qi Pill belongs to them."
As soon as they heard this, everyone couldn't help but look at each other in dismay. One million gold coins! Who could afford such a price? Besides the Su family, who else could? They were originally thinking that if they didn't bid, maybe the last two would be cheaper, but unexpectedly it was still one million gold coins...
"Haha, Tianyi is really straightforward and refreshing! Alright, our Su family will take the next one!" The master of the Su family laughed loudly and handed over a black crystal card.
