Chapter 601: Key of the Sacred Relic

"Twenty million!"

Su Yu's light, airy voice rang throughout the auction hall.

The girl's expression became utterly rigid.

Moreover, she, a bit awkward, turned her head toward the box where Su Yu was seated.

"Su…Yu!"

The girl roared almost like a beast, shouting angrily at the glass.

But the Bai family's luxurious box was far too soundproof.

Even with the Heart of Law's power mixed in her voice, it still couldn't get through. Pen Fun Pavilion

Because… a soundproof barrier had been installed.

It was originally meant to accommodate the client, but now it serves to block the client's anger.

The girl raged impotently in front of the glass.

She even pounded the window, making the whole pane tremble continuously.

Yet still no sound leaked out.

Hmm… not a single trace.

"Miss! Miss! Calm down!"

The elderly lady beside her hurriedly pulled her miss.

"Miss, you've lost your composure."

The elderly lady comforted her.

Yet the girl's eyes suddenly reddened, and she crouched down.

She looked extremely aggrieved.

"Wind Grandma, am I really so useless? Grandfather clearly needs this, yet I can't even buy it back."

Wind Grandma looked at the girl's demeanor and couldn't help feeling a pang of sympathy.

She comforted her.

"It's okay, miss; the master surely knows you tried your best, and besides… there might still be a chance!"

The elderly lady's eyes flickered slightly.

The girl looked up blankly.

Su Yu sat quietly on the sofa.

Beside him, Bai Lie kept clutching his own hair, his expression looking extremely horrified.

"Crazy! All crazy! One Soul-Returning Herb and damn twenty million Heart of Law!"

"Boss, if you really have too much money, just give it to me, I don't mind!"

Bai Lie wailed.

As the young master of the Bai family, he was overly sensitive to wealth and such.

Especially seeing Su Yu so generous, he slammed the twenty million Heart of Law onto the table.

Bai Lie felt his heart bleeding.

In Bai Lie's view, Su Yu's move was simply beastly!

Yet Su Yu remained calm and unruffled, as if nothing could alter his expression.

Soon, a Bai family servant carefully knocked on the room door and entered.

"Excuse me, young master, it's auction house policy: transactions over ten million require capital verification."

The servant's face was slick with cold sweat.

Su Yu didn't mind and handed over the ring containing twenty million Heart of Law.

Originally Su Yu had only kept twenty million, but a month of cultivation hadn't consumed all the Heart of Law.

He even had an extra ten million.

In other words, when Su Yu didn't purchase the Soul-Returning Herb, he still had thirty million!

Even after spending twenty million, there was still damn ten million left.

If later something catches his interest, even if the money is insufficient, he can still make it happen.

Nevertheless, to be safe, Su Yu instructed the servant, saying:

"Exchange all ten Heart of Law for Lower Grade Grand Dao Stones!"

One Heart of Law can be exchanged for one hundred Law Stones, and one hundred Law Stones can be exchanged for one hundred Upper Grade Grand Dao Stones.

Thus, one Heart of Law can be exchanged for over a hundred million Lower Grade Grand Dao Stones.

Ten…

The servant swallowed, noting that although Lower Grade Grand Dao Stones aren't valuable to the Bai family, the quantity was still enormous.

That's why only the Bai family could have such depth.

"Wait a moment!"

The servant hurried out.

Meanwhile,

Han Jue sat on the sofa with a blank expression, fists clenched.

He stared at the space before him, his body trembling uncontrollably.

"Twenty million…"

Han Jue's voice was hoarse at that moment.

"If anyone later tells me the Execution Court has no money, who the hell am I going to rush against!"

Han Jue's eyes both turned a bit crimson.

He really couldn't imagine what kind of mindset someone who spent twenty million Hearts of Law to buy a Soul-Returning Herb could have.

Dog big household?

Great resentment type?

One by one, the words floated through Han Jue's mind.

But soon, Han Jue's eyes flashed a beam of brilliance.

"Hum, to spend twenty million Hearts of Law at once, even you Su Yu, no matter how wealthy, couldn't have much left."

"The most valuable item at this auction is the very last one!"

Han Jue's voice rose slowly.

He is a grandson of King Yama, so through some information he naturally knew what the auction's grand finale item was.

So that's why he came to this auction!

For this grand finale, he—Han Jue—brought a full thirty million Hearts of Law!

Such a massive amount, even a sovereign‑realm strongman would be unable to resist seizing it.

Hence, he was full of confidence.

"Spend a bit more; this time, the final grand item will inevitably be mine—Han Jue's!"

At that moment, Han Jue felt his whole self emitting light.

As the Soul-Returning Herb's finale ended, everyone in the auction hall gradually returned to normal.

They had already come to their senses after Su Yu's lavish toss of twenty million Hearts of Law.

Old Wang at this moment also sobered from his excitement, coughed once, and began the next item auction.

The upcoming item made Su Yu a bit bored.

After receiving the many inferior Dao stones the servant brought, Su Yu simply immersed himself in the Synthesis Slot and began synthesizing.

Whether later he encountered something he wanted that required money, or his own cultivation needed money.

Synthesis is never a loss.

It can even earn synthesis points—what a wonderful thing!

Only Bai Lie stared blankly at the glass, not knowing what he was thinking.

Time passed slowly.

The subsequent auction also gradually entered its final climax.

"Everyone, next is the second‑to‑last item of this auction!"

Old Wang's voice rang out.

"This... is a Peak Supreme Weapon!"

With those words, the whole auction instantly boiled over.

In the end, a second‑rate faction spent a full nineteen million Hearts of Law to buy it back.

Moreover, that faction lacked enough Hearts of Law, so they had to sell off many sect assets before they could barely afford the Peak Supreme Weapon.

As for Han Jue and the girl.

Both held high positions within the faction.

A Peak Supreme Weapon is just that; they didn't set their eyes on it.

What they truly anticipated was still the final item.

Under everyone's gaze, a crystal‑crafted box was slowly pushed out.

When Old Wang saw the crystal box, his voice rose a bit.

"Everyone, this is the grand finale item of our auction."

"A... Key to a Saint's Relic!"
