Chapter 18: Dissociating Donghuang Qingxue and Jun Yuze (Seeking follow-up reading)
Then the auctioneer walked up to the raised platform in the hall.
She was a plump, fair-skinned woman, wearing brightly colored clothes.
She picked up a glass bottle on the table, smiled coquettishly at everyone and said, "Dear guests, tonight's auction has officially begun. The first item is presented by me personally. The name of the liquid in this glass bottle is 'Nine-orifice Stone Milk', which is a rare elixir that can enhance the physique of the person who takes it..."
After listening to the auctioneer's introduction, everyone present was shocked.
This is a rare elixir, and its preciousness is comparable to that of the best elixir.
"The starting price for this auction is 100,000 Spiritual Stones, and each bid must not be less than 1,000 Spiritual Stones."
The auctioneer's sweet voice once again reached everyone's ears.
"One hundred thousand and one hundred thousand spirit stones."
"One hundred and two thousand spirit stones."
"One hundred and fifty thousand spirit stones."
"Two hundred thousand spirit stones!"
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, someone immediately made an offer.
At this moment, the bidding soared from 100,000 spirit stones to 200,000.
Such a speed of price increase made Jun Lintian dumbfounded.
It’s worthy of being an auction, it’s really terrifying.
"Young Master Jun, do you need a quote?"
Seeing that the bidding was getting more and more intense, Linglong turned to Jun Lintian and asked.
Hearing this, Jun Lintian saw that Jun Yuze did not participate in the bidding, so he shook the folding fan in his hand, smiled faintly and said: "No, this young master is not interested in this thing."
"Oh."
Linglong nodded obediently, said nothing more, and continued to watch others compete.
Jun Lintian also continued to admire Linglong's graceful figure.
After fierce bidding, this bottle of "Nine-Aperture Stone Milk" was finally sold for 550,000 spirit stones.
The auctioneer said with joy, "Dear guests, next, we will auction the second item. It is very extraordinary and has a history of millions of years. I believe you will like it more."
"The second lot is: the ancient bell of Qixia Temple!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several guards worked together to carry out a huge, ancient, heavy bronze bell.
The ancient bronze bell is three meters high, with dragons and phoenixes carved on its surface, which looks lifelike. Inside the bell there is an awe-inspiring, desolate and ancient atmosphere.
"The ancient bell of Qixia Temple, the base price is 100,000 spirit stones, and each bid cannot be less than 1,000 spirit stones."
When the auctioneer finished his introduction, there was a burst of boos from the venue.
"Hey, you actually took out a broken clock, and you call it a treasure?"
"Qixia Temple has been destroyed for thousands of years. Who knows if such a treasure is worth the money?"
"Yeah, this kind of ancient stuff probably can't even be considered garbage, right?"
"In my opinion, that poor bastard must be crazy to auction off such a piece of junk."
Everyone was talking about it, and it was obvious that they were not optimistic about the ancient bronze bell, thinking it was a piece of trash.
"One hundred thousand and one hundred spirit stones!"
However, at this moment, Jun Yuze suddenly made an offer.
Because he saw that the color of the ancient bell was golden, it was obviously a top-level magic weapon.
Considering the Donghuang Bell, the clan artifact that disappeared a million years ago, this ancient bell is most likely the Donghuang Bell, but it is disguised.
If he took a picture of it and finally gave the Donghuang Bell to Donghuang Qingxue, then Donghuang Qingxue would definitely be grateful to him and even give herself to him.
Just when Jun Yuze was secretly delighted, a sarcastic voice came from the side.
"Damn! There's actually a fool who would spend 101,000 spirit stones to buy this broken thing?"
"Isn't that the eldest son of the Jun family? He is really stupid and has a lot of money."
"What a fool!"
"Look, isn't Donghuang Qingxue sitting next to the eldest son of the Jun family? Would he specially spend money to buy a bunch of scrap metal to please the beauty just to win her favor?" "Hahahaha"
Everyone looked at Jun Yuze and talked about him sarcastically, thinking that he was crazy.
Even Donghuang Qingxue who was standing beside her frowned and looked at Jun Yuze in confusion.
In her eyes, Jun Yuze is a humble gentleman with brains and ambitions.
Seeing this, Jun Yuze smiled and explained, "Qingxue, this is not ordinary scraps of copper and iron, but an antique handed down from Qixia Temple. It should be very expensive."
He thought about giving Donghuang Qingxue a big surprise afterwards.
"So that's it."
Donghuang Qingxue nodded suddenly.
Jun Yuze's explanation was barely acceptable.
"The eldest son of the Jun family has offered one hundred and one thousand spirit stones. Is there anyone who wants to raise the price?" The auctioneer asked, looking around with a smile.
However, the scene was completely silent. Everyone looked at each other, but no one stood up to raise the price.
Seeing that no one bid, the auctioneer looked a little depressed and announced, "Since no one bids, this treasure belongs to me."
At this moment, Jun Yuze had a deep smile on his face, as if he had seen Donghuang Qingxue taking the initiative to throw herself into his arms.
"Wait! This young master will give you 200,000 spirit stones!"
Suddenly, a lazy voice sounded, interrupting Jun Yuze's fantasy.
The source of this voice was Jun Lintian who was in the "Tian" box.
Seeing this scene, Jun Yuze's face darkened, with murderous intent in his eyes. He looked towards the "Tian" box and shouted, "Jun Lintian, why are you going against me?"
"Haha, brother, what you said is a bit too much."
Jun Lintian crossed his legs leisurely and said jokingly, "Anyone who likes the items in this auction can bid for them, and the one with the highest bid wins. How come you're saying that I'm against you? You're still as brutal and overbearing as ever, but this is an auction, and you can't mess around."
Hearing this, Jun Yuze was so angry that he was shaking all over and was burning with rage, but he had no other choice.
Compared to money,
Jun Lintian left him a million miles away.
Compare strength.
Jun Lintian had reached the Wheel Sea Realm, and he was only in the late stage of Qi training, so he had no chance of winning.
The scene of brothers turning against each other made the crowd of onlookers in the hall sigh.
"The eldest son of the Jun family is too much. He is so overbearing."
"Who says it's not true? How can a dignified young master of the Jun family be so arrogant like a street thug?"
"Young Master Jun is really something. He is so polite to such a rude and rude elder brother. If it were me, I would teach him a lesson."
"Tsk tsk, it looks like there's going to be something interesting to watch."
Hearing the one-sided accusations from everyone, Jun Yuze gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and felt indignant.
It was obvious that he had no status in the Jun family and was targeted everywhere by the vicious mother and son, the eldest princess and Jun Lintian.
He is the real victim!
How come he has become a rude and unreasonable bully now?
Even Donghuang Qingxue who was standing beside him began to look at him with strange eyes.
"Qingxue, don't listen to that despicable Jun Lintian, who is trying to sow discord. I actually..."
Realizing that Donghuang Qingxue was acting strangely, Jun Yuze hurriedly explained.
"Young Master, please stop talking. Qingxue believes you." However, as soon as Jun Yuze opened his mouth, Donghuang Qingxue interrupted him expressionlessly.
It was obvious that she didn't completely believe Jun Yuze's words.
"Ah, Jun Lintian, I will one day avenge today's humiliation."
Seeing this, Jun Yuze clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.
