Chapter Seventy-Nine: Sky-High Price
"One billion!" It was a somewhat familiar hoarse voice.
The whole scene was shocked! They were not shocked by the bidding price, the two families would eventually raise the price to 10 million. What they were shocked about was that someone dared to bid for this treasure with the two families!
"Is that the silver-masked man! Doesn't he want to live anymore?"
"This person is extremely mysterious, daring to confront this local snake head-on in Qingcang City, and should not be underestimated."
"He must have some capital."
"Haha, Chen Yaojin appears out of nowhere!"
"It's better to have some self-awareness and stop raising prices, otherwise you will definitely not leave Qingcang City safely!"
Everyone looked at the silver masked man, and couldn't help but be surprised. Many people were also somewhat delighted by his misfortune. This person must have gotten himself into some kind of trouble.
Wang Shi's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at the silver-masked man, feeling that this person's aura was very secretive and couldn't see his true strength. He also looked at the silver-masked man with a furrowed brow, his thoughts were somewhat annoyed, finally taking a deep breath to calm himself down.
"This man can't be from Medicine City, right?" Wang Shi muttered, his eyes turning cold.
Zhou Li and You Canglan both furrowed their brows, this silver-masked person's sudden intervention was apparently beyond their expectations.
Yu Cang Lan's face didn't look good, and he said, "I don't know who it is, but they really have guts."
………
Zhou Yufeng was also stunned, accustomed to the struggle of the three major forces, and suddenly someone intervened, which was a bit refreshing. He looked closely at the silver masked man, his eyes shining towards the silver masked man, wanting to find an answer.
The castle owner, Yu Shi Jun, had originally planned to first observe the two families' true abilities and then strike a final blow, reaping the benefits as the dust settled. However, this silver-masked person had disrupted his plan, causing him to furrow his brow in concern, also turning his gaze towards the silver-masked individual.
Lü Quán's expression changed slightly, and he said in a low voice: "What do you mean by this? Do you think you can compete with our family's capital on your own?"
A powerful aura emanated from Lie Quan's body and spread out, pressing towards the silver-masked man.
The atmosphere suddenly became heavy.
However, the silver-masked man remained fearless and sat in his seat with a hint of cold smile, hoarsely saying: "The master of the Li family is indeed powerful, but can only you guys bid on items? I'm going to bid on this treasure to the end."
Wow
Suddenly the whole venue was filled with discussions and was full of incredulity.
"Who is this silver-masked man, anyway? He's really going to clash with the three major families! He's really asking for death!"
"This is going to be interesting."
………
A fierce glint flashed in Lü's eyes, and he gazed at the silver-masked man with profound meaning, saying in a low voice: "Then let's see who can laugh last."
Xun Jian Li Quan said: "One hundred and fifty million!" Instantly raising the price by 50 million! Stunning the whole scene!
The other two major forces, however, were lying low and quietly watching the struggle between Li Quan and the Silver Masked Man.
"Eighteen million!" The silver-masked man burst out laughing, it was unclear what he was laughing at, but the sound was extremely jarring.
"Two hundred million." Lü Quán thought that the Silver Masked Man had reached his limit, but he simply added another two hundred million.
"Two billion five hundred million!" The silver-masked man suddenly raised the bidding price.
"Thirty million!"
"Thirty-five million!"
…………
The price has skyrocketed from its original 1 million to today's 35 million! I don't know how many times it has increased!
"It's really a sky-high price, and only the Li family can afford it with their vast wealth. But how did this silver-masked person get so much money? He must have a very powerful force behind him!" Many people had guessed this point, but they just didn't know what specific force it was.
"The Silver Masked Man is really going to take down this treasure in an auction!" Everyone looked at the price and suddenly took a cold breath.
"Haha, the Li family deserves it! They were so arrogant, and now they're getting their comeuppance. It's really satisfying!" Zhou Kai let out a series of whoops, seeing the gloomy expression on the face of the Li family head, his mood suddenly became extremely pleasant!
These little guys also look like they're gloating over someone else's misfortune.
Wang Shi was also startled and couldn't help but feel some doubt about the Lai family, asking Zhou Li: "Why does the Lai family want to fight him head-on?"
Zhou Liyi heard this and couldn't help but laugh, saying: "Although the overall strength of the Lai family is comparable to ours, their only weakness is that they don't have a single rare human-grade spiritual artifact! That's why Lai Quan has lost to our family head in battle multiple times, each time because of the spiritual artifact. This has left the Lai family frustrated and helpless! This is also why the Lai family is still being suppressed by us Zhou family."
"But if they were to obtain the treasure bottle, perhaps they would really take action against our Zhou family. This time, coming to our Zhou family is also to prevent the Lai family from bidding on this spiritual instrument. It can be said that the emergence of this treasure bottle has given the Lai family a chance to rise! How could they possibly let it go easily!" Zhou Li's eyes were filled with vigilance as he spoke.
Yu Canglan nodded on the side, solemnly saying: "The current Lijia has already begun to stir, constantly swallowing up some small families. If they are given another opportunity like this, then the turmoil in Qingcang City will begin!"
"So that's how it is, the Li family really has a good wild heart." Wang Shi suddenly realized that this was the root of the disaster in Qingcang City.
…………
Lü Quán's face turned very unsightly at this time, originally thinking that this auction would be a sure thing, but now it was fraught with difficulties. At this time, Lü Quán's gold coins for bidding were also almost depleted. However, seeing the silver-masked person, although his face couldn't be seen, he still sat quietly in his seat, with an air of calmness and composure.
"Who on earth is this person?" Lü Quan wondered in his heart with a mixture of shock and doubt.
"Haha, if you're going to offer a higher price than the next one, then we'll just have to accept our fate!" Lü Quan gritted his teeth and said, clearly gambling.
"Four thousand five hundred!" Lü Quán threw out all his old capital, and his eyes were filled with bloodshot.
"This Lai family is indeed in a must-win situation, I wonder if this silver masked person will accept the challenge!" Everyone was eagerly waiting to see what the silver masked person would do next.
……
The silver-masked man fell silent for a moment before smiling and saying, "Master Lai, perhaps I will disappoint you."
Lü Quán's heart tightened, and he suddenly looked at the silver-masked man with a gloomy expression.
"Five hundred million!" The hoarse voice of the silver-masked man echoed in everyone's ears, wave after wave, lingering on and on!
"This silver-masked man really wants to take down this precious bottle!"
"Five million! What a sky-high price! Where did this masked man get so much money?!"
"The Lai family will be humiliated this time, no different from being slapped in the face!"
…………
Lai Quan hesitated for a moment, he could take out so much money, but it would be gnawing at the family's foundation, and even hurt the family's roots. Lai Quan wouldn't do that, he still had some rationality.
"Haha, if you think this 50 million is worth it, then take it! " Lü Quan said with a cold sneer, to be honest, 50 million for a high-level spiritual artifact was somewhat not worth it.
"It's worth it." The silver masked man said with profound meaning.
Qin Wuya was also surprised to see this, and the small treasure bottle was sold for such a sky-high price! Qin Wuya had great self-control, and with a brilliant smile said: "Hehe, if no one else is going to bid..."
The whole scene was silent, with no signs of wanting to continue bidding at all.
"So this treasure belongs to Mr. Silver Mask then!" The verdict was final.
He glared at the silver-masked man with a stern gaze, then turned to the old man beside him and said: "Keep an eye on this guy, don't let him out of your sight, report his movements!"
"Yes." The old man replied very respectfully, he knew that Lü Qian was going to take revenge.
