Chapter 34: One Hundred Million Superior Spirit Stones!
The enraged Ye Fan immediately drew the attention of Xia Qingxue and Xiao Ruoyu, who were in the same "Hai" character private room.
At this moment, Ye Fan was like a rampaging beast; the monstrous killing intent radiating from his body caused the surrounding air to be permeated with a thick, bloody stench.
It terrified Xia Qingxue, whose face turned pale; she clutched her arms tightly and burrowed into Xiao Ruoyu's embrace, fearing she might also suffer an unprovoked disaster.
Before coming, Su Chen had repeatedly urged her that no matter what happened, she must prioritize her own life above all else.
Xiao Ruoyu was also shocked; she had never seen such a violent, bloodthirsty Ye Fan. It seemed her understanding of Ye Fan was not thorough enough.
Perhaps this was Ye Fan's truest side.
She gently stroked Xia Qingxue's hair and comforted her softly, "Qingxue, it's alright. With me here, no one can hurt you."
Hearing her words, the fear in Xia Qingxue's heart lessened significantly. After letting out a soft breath, she slowly released her hands from clutching Xia Qingxue's shoulders.
However, her eyes remained fixed on Ye Fan.
Seeing that Ye Fan in the "Hai" private room had not made another bid for a long time, Xiao Qiu assumed Ye Fan had become sensible, and a mocking expression appeared on his face.
"How about it? Do you still dare to challenge me?"
Xiao Qiu asked coldly. He had already treated Ye Fan as a lamb for the slaughter. This was his moment to hold his head high, so he naturally had to take the opportunity to step on him.
His words immediately drew agreement from many people around him.
"Young Master Xiao is absolutely right. He is just a nobody, yet he dares to fight you for items. It is simply seeking his own death. Why does Young Master Xiao bother wasting time with such a clown?"
"I said it before, no matter how capable that person is, he is just a strong dragon; what qualifications does he have to challenge Young Master Xiao in the Donghua Continent!"
"Haha, I think that person must have been intimidated by Young Master Xiao's aura and is now too afraid to make a sound."
Listening to the praises from all around, the corners of Xiao Qiu's mouth curled up slightly, and he felt pleased. It seemed his reputation was quite famous throughout the entire Donghua Continent.
However, just as he was feeling smug, a low voice suddenly came from the "Hai" private room. The voice was not loud, but everyone's hearing was excellent, and they could hear it clearly.
"Twenty million Superior Spirit Stones!"
Upon hearing this, everyone could not help but gasp.
They turned their heads one after another to look at the "Hai" private room, an inexplicable sense of awe rising in their hearts.
To be able to take out twenty million Superior Spirit Stones in one go to buy a Dragon Emperor Pearl, this person's background must be extraordinary, or they were either extremely wealthy or possessed a massive backing.
But regardless, this guy was definitely no weaker than Xiao Qiu, because he dared to challenge Xiao Qiu!
In this instant, the auction hall fell into a brief silence; no one dared to interject at this moment.
Inside the "Hai" private room.
Cold light flickered in Ye Fan's eyes; his fists were clenched tight, his veins bulging, and his entire face became twisted.
"Xiao Qiu, this is what you forced me to do!" he muttered in a low voice.
The corners of his mouth curled, and his left hand reached toward the Space Ring that Xiao Tiancheng had given him outside the auction house.
That's right, he was prepared to misappropriate the one billion Superior Spirit Stones in that Space Ring without Xiao Tiancheng's permission.
Only in this way could he successfully bid for that Dragon Emperor Pearl, quickly increase his strength in a short time, and obtain the things and the woman he wanted.
Although doing this was somewhat improper, he had no other choice.
He was not like Xiao Tiancheng and Xiao Qiu, who were born with silver spoons in their mouths, never needing to worry about cultivation resources or failing to get what they wanted.
He was born humble, and from childhood to adulthood, he had relied on putting in ten or a hundred times more effort than others, struggling step by step, to achieve the cultivation he had today.
And now, Xiao Qiu wanted to destroy the heaven-sent opportunity before him; how could he be willing to accept that?!
He had to fight, to snatch back the opportunity that originally belonged to him!
Ye Fan gripped the Space Ring tightly with his right hand, and with a thought, a wisp of his divine sense was silently injected from his palm into the Space Ring.
The next second, the one billion Superior Spirit Stones inside the Space Ring were all displayed in his mind.
The corners of his mouth hooked up, and his confidence instantly swelled to the extreme.
With one billion Superior Spirit Stones as capital.
He would fiercely slap the faces of Xiao Qiu and everyone who looked down on him.
Seeing the auction hall so silent that one could hear a pin drop, the corners of his mouth rose slightly; he finally had the chance to hold his head high.
The auction hall.
Xiao Qiu's face was terrifyingly gloomy; the person in the "Hai" private room was truly an ant that didn't know life from death, actually daring to challenge him again!
"You ignorant thing, since that's the case, today this young master will let you know what it means to see the third eye of Prince Ma."
He took a deep breath and then shouted toward the woman in the red dress on the auction stage: "Thirty million Superior Spirit Stones!"
"Sixty million Superior Spirit Stones!"
As soon as his voice fell, Ye Fan raised the bid without showing any weakness, adding a full thirty million Superior Spirit Stones.
Boom~
Upon hearing sixty million Superior Spirit Stones.
The entire auction house exploded in an instant; everyone widened their eyes, their faces filled with disbelief.
"Is this person crazy? He doubled Young Master Xiao's bid in one go."
"A Dragon Emperor Pearl worth less than five million Superior Spirit Stones has been driven up to sixty million Superior Spirit Stones; this is truly unprecedented."
"What is the background of the kid in the 'Hai' private room? How is he so wealthy? Isn't this just having money and nowhere to spend it?"
"You don't know anything; you don't understand the world of the rich."
Listening to the discussions of the crowd, Xiao Qiu's face became increasingly ugly.
He had originally intended to drive the price of this Dragon Emperor Pearl higher to humiliate the ignorant Ye Fan.
But no one could have expected that Ye Fan would actually increase the bid by thirty million Superior Spirit Stones without hesitation, doubling the price. Wasn't this clearly slapping his face?
He instantly felt as if his chest were about to explode.
Not only that, the eyes of everyone present were focused on his face, clearly waiting for him to continue bidding.
Xiao Qiu gritted his teeth, the anger on his face burning fiercely, his eyes flickering as he seemed to be contemplating a countermeasure.
Seeing this, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of Ye Fan's mouth.
He did not believe Xiao Qiu would continue to bid, because it was completely pointless to waste more Superior Spirit Stones just to save face.
Sure enough.
A moment later, Xiao Qiu, with a gloomy face, was about to speak up and bid again, but was firmly pressed down into his chair by the purple-robed man beside him.
At this moment, the happiest person was undoubtedly the woman in the red dress on the high platform.
With the bid so high, Tianqiong Auction House's commission would also increase significantly, and her performance record would naturally soar along with it.
She was seen curtsying gracefully toward the direction of the "Hai" private room, smiling charmingly, and then turning to scan the crowd, saying: "Sixty million Superior Spirit Stones! Is there any higher? If not, this Dragon Emperor Pearl will belong to the gentleman in the 'Hai' private room."
She knew no one would be willing to spend a higher price to purchase this Dragon Emperor Pearl, but she still needed to ask.
Because this was the auction house's rule.
Rules are rules!
Just when everyone thought this Dragon Emperor Pearl would surely fall into Ye Fan's hands, a cold and indifferent voice suddenly rang out in the auction hall.
"One hundred million Superior Spirit Stones!"
