Chapter 349: Chapter 349 You’re Really Annoying!_1

"I myself am very interested in these three Spirit Pills and am determined to acquire them, and will be participating in the bidding," Chen Yuanheng spoke again.

"President Chen, isn’t your participation in the bidding likely to artificially inflate the price?" Someone immediately questioned from below the stage.

"Of course! So, I’ve thought of a compromise. I can participate in the bidding without affecting fairness. For each of these three elixirs, I’m willing to start the bidding at one hundred million each. This means if no one here is willing to bid over a hundred million for the Spirit Yuan Pill, then I will take it directly and we can move on to the next auction item."

With Chen Yuanheng’s declaration, the starting bid for the Spirit Yuan Pill is set at one hundred million, exceeding many people’s expectations.

One hundred million, after all, is no small figure. While the Spirit Pill is top-notch, spending a hundred million is also far from cheap.

Of course, for those who genuinely need and have the power to buy it, it’s worth a hundred million. After all, something like Yuan-increasing Pill can directly increase lifespan, it’s too valuable!

As the saying goes, if Yama decides your death occurs at the third watch, who dares defy him by living until the fifth?

When one is truly facing the realities of life and death, decrepitude and eternal sleep, even five to ten days more of life is priceless, let alone five to ten more years.

The crowd below was abuzz with discussion, as everyone weighed the value. The starting bid of one hundred million had already shut many people out.

"However, for fairness’ sake, if someone bids over one hundred million, I will no longer participate. Now, I’ve said my piece, let the bidding officially begin."

After Chen Yuanheng finished speaking, the big screen immediately displayed a starting price of one hundred million, with each bid increment being no less than ten million.

In the VIP seating area, Fang Yue was also astonished, "It turns out cultivators’ Spirit Pills are really valuable. The starting price is already a hundred million."

Fang Yue indeed had money, but the actual amount she could freely spend was only two or three hundred million. Given the circumstances, she might not be able to secure the pill even if she spent all her money.

One hundred million would definitely not be the final transaction price. Fang Yue was secretly assessing the value and considering whether or not to compete for the Eternal-youth Pill.

"Don’t buy that Eternal-youth Pill, let them scramble for it. It’s not worth it to spend a hundred million," Su Chengyu said.

"You don’t understand, for a woman, beauty is priceless! If the effect of the Eternal-youth Pill is really that strong, it’s worth spending one or two hundred million," Fang Yue argued.

"You’re still young, and you’re already very beautiful. You don’t need that thing."

"But I’ll still grow old. Even with great skincare, a few years from now, my skin will deteriorate, and my face will start to wrinkle," Fang Yue voiced concerns shared by countless women.

"You are not getting married, who do you need to stay young and beautiful for?" Su Chengyu sat back and said dismissively.

"How do you know I’m not getting married?" Fang Yue looked suspicious.

Realising he had let the truth slip, Su Chengyu quickly replied: "Didn’t you say it yourself? You’re afraid of jinxing your husband, so you aren’t considering getting married."

"Did I say that to you?" Fang Yue looked puzzled.

"Of course you did. Otherwise, how would I know your thoughts? I don’t have a worm in your belly."

"Even if I don’t get married, can’t I please myself? Can’t I love beauty? You don’t have to pay, so why do you care?" Fang Yue retorted.

"Fine, fine, fine! You’re rich, you do as you will."

Su Chengyu simply closed his eyes and stopped talking. Meanwhile, the auction hall had started the bidding.

For ordinary people, the Spirit Yuan Pill is far less useful than the Eternal-youth Pill or Yuan-increasing Pill. The Spirit Yuan Pill is most useful for martial artists. Ordinary people taking it would only improve their health and the effect isn’t very noticeable.

The bidders were either martial arts families or martial arts practitioners. For example, the son of Cai Yi Gen of Cai Fist Gate participated in the bidding.

In addition, someone from Xingyi Gate also participated. Xingyi Gate and Cai Fist Gate are both martial arts sects in Jiangdong and rank among the six major sects there.

Ultimately, the Spirit Yuan Pill was taken by Cai Fist Gate for the price of two hundred and sixty million.

After the Spirit Yuan Pill auction was over, Chen Yuanheng went backstage and the auction for other products began.

After seeing the Spirit Yuan Pill auctioned for such a high price, Fang Yue felt her pocket wasn’t solid enough. The final price of the Eternal-youth Pill would certainly not be lower than the Spirit Yuan Pill.

Women would definitely be extravagant and crazy over this item!

Halfway through, another auction item appeared. It was a necklace described by the host as designed by the chief designer of a renowned international luxury brand, limited to three pieces worldwide. The cost of the necklace itself was quite high, and it was very beautiful. The sapphire pendant was one of the rarest gems. The designer unexpectedly passed away this year, making these three necklaces even more unique.

The starting price for the necklace was ten million. Originally, this necklace was one of the finale items for tonight. However, due to the Eternal-youth Pill, the necklace dimmed in comparison and did not incite a frenzy of bidding.

"This is such a beautiful necklace, don’t you want to buy it?" Su Chengyu asked.

"I’d like to. But I still want to buy the Eternal-youth Pill, so I can’t spend money on this necklace. Otherwise, I won’t stand a chance," Fang Yue regretfully replied.

The price had reached thirty-four million. Chen Yuanheng and the others’ assessment of the necklace was one hundred million, but due to the presence of the Eternal-youth Pill, it was hard to reach the estimated final price.

Su Chengyu suddenly pressed the bidding button. Fang Yue was surprised: "What are you doing? Do you want to buy this necklace?"

Su Chengyu nodded, and Fang Yue felt a thrill of excitement. She clenched her teeth and asked, "You’re not buying it to give to me, are you?"

"What do you think?" Su Chengyu replied calmly, leaving Fang Yue completely uncertain.

"You certainly wouldn’t be so kind as to give me such an expensive gift... I don’t believe it," Fang Yue replied, retreating as a form of advancement.

"Congratulations, you are correct! It indeed isn’t for you, you’re overthinking," Su Chengyu said seriously.

"Su... Cheng... do you know that you are very annoying!"

Fang Yue was so angry she could grind her teeth. For a brief moment, she really thought Su Chengyu was going to give it to her. Especially after he had just said that he was divorced and currently single, she felt a bit of thrill and secret satisfaction.

Su Chengyu, however, unceremoniously poured a bucket of cold water on her!

"You find me annoying, so what? I don’t need you to like me."

Seeing how frustrated Fang Yue was, Su Chengyu found it all the more amusing and couldn’t resist teasing her further.

If it had been any other man who teased her like this, Fang Yue would have slapped him long ago. However, when it came to Su Chengyu, although she was angry, she didn’t seem to be genuinely upset, which was strange.

After several rounds of bidding, it was down to the VIP in seat sixty-two on the third floor and Su Chengyu. The price had increased from thirty-four million to fifty-one million.

"VIP No. 62 bid fifty-one million," the host announced loudly.

Su Chengyu smiled faintly. The thing he wanted, whether fifty million or five hundred million, he was determined to get it. After all, he didn’t lack money right now. He had over a billion in cash readily available in his bank account.

As the elixir-making continued, this number would only grow.

"Fifty-one million for the second time, does anyone wish to bid further?" the host announced.

Su Chengyu placed his hand on the bidding button, continuously pressing it, while the numbers on the big screen below jumped incessantly. No matter how fast the host was, he couldn’t keep up!
