Chapter 269: Chapter 269: The Final Auction
As Jiang Chenlong shouted out a bid of 120 billion, everyone was stunned.
Even Murong Mingyue had not expected that Jiang Chenlong would be so crazy to bid for the Ksitigarbha Sacred Tree.
The previous record high for the Premium Auction House was only around 50 billion, but now the Ksitigarbha Sacred Tree had reached the sky-high price of 120 billion.
Murong Jing was stunned for a moment, then he suddenly erupted with elation, no longer caring about his status, he rushed to the auction stand, shouting, "120 billion, is there anyone else who wants to raise the price?"
He was originally very wary of Jiang Chenlong, which was why he publicly scolded Murong Mingyue, but now it seemed that Jiang Chenlong had no intentions of causing trouble.
"Has everyone gone mad? An ordinary piece of wood is being auctioned for 120 billion? Could these all be shills?"
"Are you an idiot? Would the heir of one of the Nine Gates of Yandu, the Jiang Family, act as a shill?"
"This is the foundation of a top powerhouse, to them, 120 billion is probably like 120 bucks to an average person, right?"
...
With Jiang Chenlong’s bid, the atmosphere on the scene was instantly ignited; even the representatives of the Nine Gates of Yandu were surprised.
Murong Mingyue’s expression turned somewhat unpleasant, she took a deep glance at Jiang Chenlong, then turned to look at Qin Chuan sitting on the sofa inside.
"130 billion!"
Qin Chuan said calmly.
The bidding rooms of the Nine Gates all had external speakers, and Qin Chuan’s voice once again spread throughout the entire auction hall.
"What? That young man actually wants to continue bidding against Jiang Chenlong, have they both gone insane?"
"Can someone tell me, what’s the background of the young man hiding in the Murong Family VIP Room?"
"A young man who can use the Murong Family VIP Room definitely has a significant background."
...
Many people started to grow curious about Qin Chuan’s identity.
The smile on Jiang Chenlong’s face disappeared, he frowned and stared at the Murong Family VIP Room, speaking in a low voice, "I wonder who this young brother is? Are you really going to contend with me?"
Although he was the heir of the Jiang Family and indeed very much needed the Ksitigarbha Sacred Tree, he was not a fool.
To be able to disregard his own status and dare to bid against him publicly was certainly not an ordinary person.
However, his inquiry did not receive any response.
This made his face turn very ugly. After all, he was to be the future head of the Jiang Family and was now being ignored by a young man.
"Boom!"
A violent aura spread from him, directly pressing towards the Murong Family VIP Room.
Just as the pressure he released was about to envelop the entire Murong Family VIP Room, an even more ferocious aura suddenly erupted.
Jiang Chenlong’s face changed dramatically.
"Pfft!"
In front of everyone’s shocked eyes, Jiang Chenlong spat out a mouthful of blood, stumbled, and retreated several steps.
This left those in the auction hall on the first floor dumbfounded; they hadn’t grasped what had happened, only seeing Jiang Chenlong spitting blood before retreating out of their sight.
"Holy shit! Jiang Chenlong, with his Energizing Skill Peak Realm cultivation, spat out blood? Am I seeing things?"
"You didn’t see? Jiang Chenlong seemed to have been wounded by the aura of that young man hiding in the Murong Family VIP Room."
"Are you joking internationally? Jiang Chenlong is a strong practitioner at the peak of the Energizing Skill Realm, and the strength of someone who can injure him with just their presence must have reached the King Realm, right? The key point is, the person in the Murong Family VIP Room is clearly a young man. Could it be that he’s a King Realm strong?"
"Who told you that there are only Murong Mingyue and that young man in the Murong family’s room?"
...
At this moment, everyone in the auction hall was extremely shocked.
The auction they were witnessing today had already sent them through repeated waves of shock.
While everyone was buzzing with conversation, Jiang Chenlong once again stood in front of the window.
In front of everyone’s astonished eyes, he clasped his hands toward the Murong Family VIP Room and said seriously, "Thank you for showing mercy, senior. I give up on the Ksitigarbha Sacred Tree!"
As soon as he said this, everyone was stunned.
Indeed, there was a super-strong presence in the Murong Family VIP Room, even Jiang Chenlong conceded.
Some powerful martial artists also saw respect in Jiang Chenlong’s eyes.
Murong Mingyue, whose nerves had been tightly wound, also relaxed at this moment.
She signaled the female auctioneer with a glance, and the latter snapped back to reality, quickly shouting excitably, "One hundred and thirty billion, once!"
"One hundred and thirty billion, twice!"
"One hundred and thirty billion, thrice! Sold!"
With the auctioneer’s hammer falling heavily, the piece of Ksitigarbha Sacred Tree, seen as invaluable by others, was finally successfully bid on by Qin Chuan.
Murong Jing, who was earlier ecstatic about the sky-high price of over a hundred billion for the Ksitigarbha Sacred Tree, now had a very solemn expression on his face.
He had always wanted to be the heir of the Murong Family and was finally close to the end of his struggle when a super-strong presence appeared beside Murong Mingyue.
He felt an immense pressure, knowing that if a King Realm Strong supported Murong Mingyue, his chances of becoming the family head would vanish completely.
"Next up is the main event of today, the opportunity offered by the Mysterious Divine Doctor!"
The female auctioneer said fervently, "I suppose you must be wondering why the opportunity to seek help from a divine doctor would be the final item to be auctioned."
"Some of you already know the reason, but many are still in the dark, so let me explain further..."
As the female auctioneer was elaborating on the opportunity to seek the Mysterious Divine Doctor’s aid, at the door of the Murong Family VIP Room.
Murong Jing’s face was full of anxiety. He wanted to push the door open directly, but thinking about the super-strong person inside, he hesitated.
After hesitating for about tens of seconds, he finally made up his mind, knocked on the door of the VIP Room, and said carefully, "Mingyue, your third uncle would like to visit the senior inside, may I enter?"
Inside the VIP Room, Murong Mingyue’s lips curled into an amused smile, glanced at Qin Chuan, and whispered, "Would my third uncle cry if he knew the ’senior’ he speaks of is you?"
Qin Chuan said expressionlessly, "Send him away."
Murong Mingyue nodded, then shouted towards the door: "Third Uncle, the senior wants you to get as far away as you can."
Qin Chuan looked at Murong Mingyue helplessly. Had he said it like that?
Murong Jing, standing at the door of the VIP Room, had his smile freeze upon hearing Murong Mingyue’s words.
After being silent for a few seconds, he quickly said, "Alright, I’m going!"
Even Qin Chuan was surprised; was the Murong Family’s Third Master really so easygoing?
Murong Mingyue said with a smile, "My third uncle is quite a character. Even though he isn’t highly talented, he has the keen eye to know who can be offended and who cannot."
As she spoke, the female auctioneer’s voice sounded from the first-floor hall, "The opportunity offered by the Mysterious Divine Doctor starts at thirty billion, with each bid increment not to be less than one billion. The auction starts now!"
