Chapter 2207: I Disgust You, Undying

Anyone with eyes can see that this is clearly the Ultimate Bliss Palace deliberately making things difficult for them.

Given Zuo Fu's cultivation and status, he naturally couldn't swallow this anger; fortunately, Qi Xiong kept persuading him from the side, which finally managed to steady Zuo Fu with difficulty.

He let out a cold snort; the icy aura surrounding him made the nearby maid feel as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, her smiling face already turned deathly pale without a trace of blood.

Her body trembled uncontrollably; if Zuo Fu hadn't been deliberately targeting her, she probably couldn't have held on and would have passed out.

Qi Xiong didn't care about these things; although he was equally annoyed, compared to that, obtaining treasures was the real business.

Moreover, after the previous incident, Qi Xiong also clearly understood a principle.

Now, although the Dao One Immortal Sect, because of Ye Zhangqing, can call upon many external forces, like Huang Lao and Zuo Fu,

but after all, this isn't one's own strength; relying on external forces always carries the risk of being abandoned.

If one still lacks self-awareness and leans on these external forces to act high and mighty, it's not only petty but will unknowingly push oneself into an abyss.

So Qi Xiong clearly understands that power like Zuo Fu's and Huang Lao's can only be used for self-defense, not as a means to arrogantly dominate others.

Only when their Dao One Immortal Sect truly becomes strong can they really straighten their backs with full confidence.

Even Ye Zhangqing has started frantically making money; as the Sect Master, how could he possibly drop the ball?

Temporary forbearance isn't humiliation; whoever laughs last is the true winner.

So these minor difficulties, losing a bit of face, are nothing to the current Qi Xiong.

As people from the lower realm, they should still hold a reverent heart toward the Immortal Realm; they cannot act recklessly just because Ye Zhangqing exists—this is unacceptable.

Without dwelling on the Ultimate Bliss Palace's difficulties, after taking their seats, Qi Xiong continued to monitor the auction; as for the previous Room 7, it was assigned to Liu Chengfeng's group.

At this moment inside the room, Liu Chengfeng respectfully thanked the fellow Ultimate Bliss Palace disciple traveling with him.

"Thank you, senior brother."

"What's the point of saying this between us?"

In response, that Ultimate Bliss Palace disciple replied with a smile.

The auction continued, but at this time, the Elder of Ultimate Bliss Palace in charge of overseeing Wuji Xiancheng, after finishing other matters, had just arrived at the auction site.

Accompanying him was the manager of San Shi San Lou.

He glanced around and didn't see Qi Xiong's group, so the Ultimate Bliss Palace Elder casually asked.

"Where are the people from the Dao One Immortal Sect? Why aren't they here?"

Hearing this, the manager of San Shi San Lou didn't think much and replied truthfully.

"Elder, the room they wanted has been arranged in Room 7."

The manager didn't know the Ultimate Bliss Palace disciple's actions; by now, Room 7 was no longer occupied by Qi Xiong's group.

As for that Ultimate Bliss Palace Elder, there's no need to say more—he had just arrived here and knew nothing about the situation.

Upon hearing that, his gaze immediately turned toward the direction of Room 7.

Because of the formation's obstruction, he couldn't see inside either; not even his divine sense could penetrate unless he forcibly broke the formation.

However, this is an auction; as the organizer, that Ultimate Bliss Palace Elder naturally couldn't do something that would embarrass himself.

But when he looked toward Room 7, he couldn't help but cast an icy glare and let out a cold snort.

"Hmph, they even took a room."

Knowing that Ultimate Bliss Palace and the Dao One Immortal Sect are on bad terms, upon hearing that, the manager of San Shi San Lou didn't respond, merely waiting respectfully at the side.

Just then, the next item was brought onto the stage, and the auctioneer in charge loudly announced.

"This item is a set of immortal-grade formations composed of twelve formation disks; a single disk already possesses considerable power, and when combined into a formation, it can slay an Immortal King realm cultivator."

"The starting bid is fifty thousand immortal crystals."

The auctioneer's words are surely exaggerated; an immortal-grade grand formation cannot slay an Immortal King cultivator.

Unless the target does nothing and simply offers his neck, there might be a slight chance.

But that's unrealistic.

Strictly speaking, this formation is equivalent to a full-force strike from an Immortal Emperor realm cultivator.

It does pose a threat to Immortal King cultivators, though limited; as a life-saving item, it's not bad.

Many cultivators present also know this, so they naturally tune out the auctioneer's self-praise.

Whoever at an auction listens to the auctioneer's words is foolish—what good could come from his mouth?

One must have one's own judgment.

The starting bid isn't high, merely fifty thousand immortal crystals.

Soon someone placed a bid; inside Room 7, Liu Chengfeng, looking at this formation, also said with some interest.

"If there's a chance, we could take it."

Hearing that, the Ultimate Bliss Palace disciple beside him expressed doubt.

"Do you still need this?"

"It's for my fiancée."

"That's fine then."

As the young master of the Liu clan, Liu Chengfeng certainly wouldn't lack an immortal-grade grand formation, but his fiancée is said to be merely a disciple of a small clan, and moreover from a branch line.

Of course, by now she has long been merged into the main line because of Liu Chengfeng's influence.

Buying it as a gift is fine; moreover, this formation is worth at most a little over a hundred thousand, which is nothing to Liu Chengfeng's wealth.

While speaking, Liu Chengfeng also placed a bid, outright calling out one hundred thousand immortal crystals.

This instantly raised the bid by so much, naturally silencing many people.

On the auction floor, those who had been bidding earlier fell into silence, as if they all gave up.

One hundred thousand immortal crystals is already not low; although it's not a loss, the immortal-grade grand formation isn't worth much—it still depends on whether it's needed.

Some cultivators who don't need it, facing such a price, definitely won't continue bidding.

So, for a while, really no one was bidding against Liu Chengfeng.

However, at this moment, inside the Eighteenth Private Room, Qi Xiong casually shouted a price of 120,000 immortal crystals.

This thing isn't absolutely necessary; Qi Xiong just shouted it offhand—best if he could get it, if not, it's no big deal; going any higher would be a bit uneconomical.

However, on Liu Chengfeng's side, this disciple of the Ultimate Bliss Palace saw Qi Xiong shout a price and, without thinking, spoke up.

"Brother Liu raises the price; I'll cover the extra."

"Huh??? Shī xiōng, what is this???"

"Don't worry about it, just shout it out; no matter what you say, you can't give it to the people in the Eighteenth Private Room."

"Oh."

Liu Chengfeng naturally saw that this disciple of the Ultimate Bliss Palace had a grudge against Qi Xiong and them; hearing this, he naturally didn't refuse, and immediately spoke up to raise the price to 130,000 immortal crystals.

Seeing this, the disciple of the Ultimate Bliss Palace coldly snorted, "If I can't act, I'll disgust you to death; want to bid on a treasure? You have to ask whether my Ultimate Bliss Palace agrees."

Seeing this, the Ultimate Bliss Palace Elder, looking at the Seventh Private Room bidding again, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, he thought viciously.

"Want a treasure? See if I can disgust you to death."
