Chapter 3065: Offending Everyone

Ye Liuyun's single sentence made many of those present gasp in shock.

Everyone thought he dared to ignore Yu Wenqiang, not knowing whether it was sheer audacity or ignorance of the situation.

The Host, squeezed by Ye Liuyun's move, could no longer keep his composure, his face flushing red then turning pale. Yet Yu Wenqiang's local influence seemed considerable, so the Host dared not offend Yu Wenqiang.

He moved his lips, still unsure how to handle the situation.

Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil also noticed Yu Wenqiang staring at his private room for a while, and immediately gave a command to his soldiers. Then he coldly said to the Host: "Since he insists on buying it, let him bid. I want to see whether he can actually take the pill away!"

After Yu Wenqiang said that, the He family disciple who had intended to raise the price could only helplessly give up.

The Host pretended to ask around, fully aware that no one dared to bid further, and then immediately announced that the Xishui Dan belonged to Ye Liuyun. He let out a sigh of relief, finally having dealt with the pill's auction.

As for whether Ye Liuyun could take the pill after the auction ended, that was none of their business.

Ye Liuyun paid no further mind, promptly took the pill and paid Primordial Power. He would not care about a garrison Leader's threat.

The crowd inside sighed and lamented, their gazes toward Ye Liuyun's private room filled with sympathy.

Ye Liuyun merely had the firepower tank ready.

"At worst I'll blast the local garrison, then change my appearance and come back! Maybe I can even snag some Reinforcement Troops!"

Ye Liuyun kept calculating in his mind how, once a fight broke out, he could profit more resources.

The Host then began introducing the next lot.

"Xuan Yin Fire, the final item of the night! From the depths of the desolate sea…"

Ye Liuyun didn't even listen to the detailed introduction; the moment he saw the blaze, he immediately decided to bid it.

Within that Xuan Yin Fire a fire spirit had already formed; if his Nether Ghost Fire devoured it, his Nether Ghost Fire would be greatly enhanced. His Golden Crow Holy Fire had recently risen considerably, just right to supplement his own yin fire.

The Host also noted that the flame contained a fire spirit. Thus, whether for pill refining, artifact forging, or attack, this was a rare special resource.

Immediately, a scramble erupted, especially between two Seventh Layer masters—one in the private room and one among the scattered seats—who fought most fiercely, driving the price up rapidly to three times the opening bid.

Even Leader Yu Wenqiang stopped bidding against them. The Martial Cultivators in the scattered seats could only watch the spectacle, marveling at the wealth of these rich ones.

After the two highest-level Martial Cultivators fought for a while, the Martial Cultivator in the private room then flaunted his background, threatening the competitors.

"I, Feng Cheng An, Steward of the Chen family, find this flame perfect for our Chen clan's artifact forging. Friends, would you entrust it to me?"

But the Martial Cultivator in the scattered seats snorted coldly: "What of the Chen family? I am also an Outer Elder of the Xu Dan Sect, Hong Bo. This Xuan Yin Fire is just right for our disciples to refine pills!"

Their revealed identities prompted another wave of sighs from the crowd, and no one else dared to compete, watching the two keep adding Primordial Power bids.

Ye Liuyun was curious; he recalled that when he snapped up the Soul‑condensing pill, Hong Bo had also contested him.

"If he truly is an elder of the Xu Dan Sect, could he still fail to obtain the pill?"

Nevertheless, he ignored the authenticity of Hong Bo's status; he was determined to secure the Xuan Yin Fire.

He stared at Feng Cheng An and Hong Bo's expressions, and when he saw they could no longer raise the bid, showing a troubled look, he immediately added another fifty Primordial Power to his offer.

"Who is this person? He even dares to snatch resources coveted by the Chen family and the Xu Dan Sect!"

"He really is wealthy! Too bad, he's offended every strongman; even if he buys something, he probably can't take it away!"

The Martial Cultivators in the scattered seats resumed their chatter.

Meanwhile, the strongmen in the private room and Xu Dan Sect Elder Hong Bo among the scattered seats gave him a playful stare.

Clearly, Ye Liuyun's participation in the auction offended every strongman here. These people had already resolved not to let Ye Liuyun leave. Outside his private room, several groups were now watching him.

"It seems the order here is poor; these Martial Cultivator strongmen are no better than bandits!"

Ye Liuyun felt these strongmen were no stronger than the bandits of the Duqiao Star System, and even less upright than those bandits.

In the end, no one else bid on the Xuan Yin Fire, and Ye Liuyun pocketed it.

This time even Feng Cheng An and Hong Bo vowed not to let Ye Liuyun off.

But they knew the situation well, aware that someone would eventually act; then they could spend a bit and buy the Xuan Yin Fire from others.

With their backing, no one dared to slight them. So the two didn't move to act, instead pondering how they would compete later. (reading the book.)

After the Xuan Yin Fire was auctioned off, the Host, relieved, announced the end of the auction and immediately turned away, unwilling to join the ensuing disputes.

Yet none of the participants left; they all wanted to see how Ye Liuyun would escape these strongmen. The people in the private room gave him a mocking look, eager to see his ending.

After waiting a while and seeing Ye Liuyun still unmoving, a woman couldn't help speaking up: "Hmph, you keep raging then! What's wrong? Do you intend to linger here forever?"

Ye Liuyun ignored her; his First Clone had already emerged to replace him. Ye Liuyun had returned to the Clone's Space World to refine the Xuan Yin Fire.

He planned to refine the Xuan Yin Fire first, then ingest the Xishui Dan. As for the outside Martial Cultivators, he hadn't cared much; he simply handed Snow Wolf, Cold Abyss, Metal Puppet and the firepower tank to his clone, letting it slaughter at will.

On the entire Jinshi Planet, as long as he doesn't wage war with the He family, he need not pay special attention.

The First Clone hadn't been in a hurry to go out, but suddenly the Guild shut down all Defense Arrays inside the private rooms.

With that, people in other private rooms could also detect Ye Liuyun.

"Whoa, that's a Third Layer Martial Cultivator! This kid's got guts!"

The outside Martial Cultivators, upon seeing the clone's realm, immediately shouted in surprise.

Now they no longer worried about which major faction Ye Liuyun belonged to. The clone's realm was low, with no guards, making it impossible to be a major figure. His attire even resembled a lone cultivator, so they were even less concerned.
