Supreme Martial Artist - Chapter 76
Chapter 0076 Someone Was Bidding!
Soon, Lei Zhen ran over excitedly and told Qin Fei that the matter was settled!
In the evening, the auction house in charge of Lei Zhen was packed with people.
E Gang personally arrived at the door, accompanied by Lei Zhen, welcoming the guests from all sides. Now E Gang was extremely polite to Lei Zhen, and his face was full of smiles as he called him brother.
When Qin Fei arrived, E Gang greeted him personally.
Lei Zhen temporarily didn’t break his relationship with Qin Fei, so as not to cause any more trouble.
E Gang personally welcomed Qin Fei into the private room upstairs and sat down. He accompanied Qin Fei to the side and carefully served him.
He was very clear about Qin Fei’s identity and treated him like Ao Tian, afraid that he would neglect his distinguished guest.
The branch president of the Pill Master Association took in a disciple personally. Such an identity was not something he could easily offend.
“Bank Leader E, how are the other two candidates?” Qin Fei asked playfully.
“Hehe, Brother Qin, don’t worry, I’ve already arranged everything! In a fair and impartial election, Elder Lei has a 90% chance of winning!” E Gang smiled.
Qin Fei nodded. This E Gang knew how to behave. Lei Zhen had told him earlier that E Gang had already told Zhou Xingzhu and the other Xingzhu about the relationship between Lei Zhen and Ao Tian, leaving it to them to handle.
Especially that Zhou Xingzhu. When he found out that he actually dared to shout at the head disciple of the Pill Master Association, his legs immediately went limp. He immediately said that he wanted to quit. However, E Gang did not let him do so. After all, this was an auction house election. No matter what, he had to act like it.
However, he clearly told Steward Zhou to stop playing tricks and follow the proper procedures. Whether Steward Zhou still wanted to stay in the Inferno Auction House or not depended on how he behaved!
E Gang’s words naturally caused Zhou Xingzhu’s heart to have a grudge. This time, Lei Zhen was destined to be the main character in the election!
At the beginning of the auction, Lei Zhen took out the thousand-year-old profound stone. The interest in participating was not high. After all, this thing was about luck. After spending a lot of money, it ended up losing money. No one wanted to see it.
Qin Fei didn’t bother. Seeing that the reaction from the crowd wasn’t intense, only a few people were bidding. The price only reached 200,000 gold coins. He didn’t want to create any complications. He directly exported 500,000 gold coins and prepared to auction them off.
Lei Zhen looked gratefully at the private room he was in.
E Gang was shocked at the back. A pill refiner was a pill refiner. He was indeed a wealthy master.
Actually, Qin Fei did not earn this money himself. Most of the money was poured into the Qin Family’s business operation. In fact, this money was a windfall he obtained in the Golden Lion’s cave. At this moment, it was not too painful to spend.
“I’ll pay 550,000!” Someone challenged, and it was a pleasant female voice. Qin Fei couldn’t help but be stunned. He curled his lips. Which fool was so stupid? Do you have nowhere to spend money? The highest price for a thousand-year-old profound stone auction was 500,000 gold coins. This silly woman’s voice sounded delicate and charming. She shouldn’t be very old, she shouldn’t have had enough experience.
He was only here to help Lei Zhen. Actually, with Ao Tian’s appearance during the day, Lei Zhen’s becoming the branch head had become a certainty. Whether he spent the money or not didn’t really matter much!
Since that ignorant woman is bidding with him, then let her go …
Qin Fei shut his mouth and was no longer prepared to continue bidding.
Suddenly, the pill bird in the cage beside his feet cheered, its eyes staring straight at the thousand-year-old profound stone.
It flapped its wings, seemingly wanting to pounce on the Thousand Year Profound Stone, but it could not speak or leave the cage, so it could only look at Qin Fei excitedly.
“What’s going on?” Qin Fei was stunned.
Xuan Ling’er’s voice rang out, “I forgot to tell you, there are many kinds of auxiliary beasts. This Dan Que should still have the ability to sense through the air. It must have sensed something good inside the thousand year old profound stone, so it is so excited.”
“Sensing from afar? Such a freak!” Qin Fei’s eyes lit up. Dan Que’s reaction had aroused his interest in the Millennium Profound Stone. Since that was the case, he had to film everything he said!
“650,000!” He shouted.
“700 thousand!” The other party obviously did not intend to give up easily and immediately shouted out his price.
“Damn it, where did this girl come from?” Qin Fei was depressed. Now that he knew that there were other secrets within the thousand-year-old profound stone, he naturally wouldn’t let them go. In history, there were times when he had mined the thousand-year-old profound stone to create crystalline profound stones.
“750,000!” Qin Fei shouted again.
However, the other party did not intend to give up and raised the price to 800,000 yuan.
Qin Fei’s expression was a little gloomy. He frowned and glanced at E Gang, who was standing beside him. “Elder E Gang, what is the background of the other party?”
E Gang hurriedly said, “Brother Qin, wait a moment, I’ll send someone to investigate!”
“Brother Qin, the other party is from the Black Tortoise Palace. It seems that he is determined to obtain this thousand-year-old Profound Stone!”
Xuanwu Palace?
Qin Fei frowned even more tightly. This was troublesome. Why did she take a fancy to this Millennium Profound Stone? Could it be that she also knew that there was something else?
Xuanwu Palace and the Pill Masters Association were two of the biggest powers in the Xuanling Empire. Their positions were equal. Moreover, according to his understanding in the Pill Masters Association, the two of them didn’t like each other and both wanted to surpass each other. As a result, his hopes of Tuo Egang convincing the other to give up the bidding had been frustrated.
This was strange. Why didn’t the other party go to the other two auction houses to bid for the Millennium Profound Stone? Instead, he purposely appeared here?
As a result, when he asked E Gang about this, he knew that it was all because of him and Ao Tian.
Zhou Xingzhu and another fellow knew that Lei Zhen was backed by the Pill Master Association, so how could they dare to fight Lei Zhen? As a result, they all gave up the election. They were just pretending. Although their auction was going on, no one went to participate. Lei Zhen was the liveliest place.
There was nothing Qin Fei could do but bravely continue to bid, hoping that the other party’s funds were inferior to his own.
When the price reached one million yuan, the other party finally fell silent, as if he was ready to give up.
Qin Fei heaved a sigh of relief. Lei Zhen raised the hammer on the auction stage with a serious expression, preparing to knock on the coffin.
Right at this moment, the other party suddenly increased the price again, calling out a price of 1.2 million gold coins, as if he had made up his mind to obtain this profound stone!
1.2 million!
The crowd erupted into an uproar, and even E Gang couldn’t help but get excited.
In the history of the Profound Spirit Empire, a thousand-year-old Profound Stone had only sold for one million yuan at the highest price. Furthermore, it was the only time it had ever sold. Now, this record was about to be broken!
Qin Fei’s eyes widened. Damn it, the other party definitely knew that there were other secrets in the Profound Stone. Otherwise, he would never have shouted such a high price.
