C4039 The Highest Bidder Gets It
“The Dragon Palace is so arrogant. Damn it.”
“Legend has it that the Dragon Palace’s treasures are piled up like a mountain. Now that I’ve seen it, I’m afraid it’s true. What a big deal. The competition for the Holy Blood Pill is set in stone.”
“Yeah, who can be richer than the Dragon Palace? This Ao Bai seems to be determined to get the Holy Blood Pill. This is trouble. If the Dragon Clan really gets the Holy Blood Pill, not only will it greatly strengthen the Dragon Clan’s strength, it will also become a great disaster for the Human Clan. It won’t be good.”
Ao Bai’s words caused a huge uproar. Everyone glared at him, but there was nothing they could do.
After all, this was the Green Cloud Society. They had to follow the rules. The higher the price, the better. They couldn’t act recklessly.
Seeing that many Human Clan cultivators were angry but powerless, Ao Bai laughed arrogantly and shouted, “Everyone, treasures are always given to the highest bidder. This is the rule set by the Floating Cloud City Lord. I am only following the rules. Does anyone have any objections? Heh, if you have the ability, then come and fight for it.”
“You…”
“What an arrogant Dragon Clan. They are too arrogant.”
“This guy is really arrogant to this extent. Sigh, I heard that the Dragon Clan has a lot of treasures. It seems to be true.”
Ao Bai’s words indeed infuriated many Human Clan cultivators, but due to the Dragon Palace’s power and Ao Bai’s terrifying aura, none of the Human Clan cultivators present dared to stand out.
Just then, a figure stood out.
"I bid four billion immortal jades."
Chen Xiao stood up and looked at Ao Bai provocatively.
"Hua."
Instantly, his actions caused an uproar. All the cultivators in the City Lord Palace looked over at him.
"It's him, Violet Cloud City's Chen Xiao."
"It's Chen Xiao. He actually dared to bid, aren't you afraid of offending the Dragon Palace?"
"Offending the Dragon Palace? Don't you know that Chen Xiao caused a huge ruckus in the Endless Sea a few hundred years ago and killed many experts from the Dragon Palace and the Sea God Hall? He was wanted by the Dragon Palace and caused a huge uproar."
"In that case, they really are enemies of life and death. As the old saying goes, it's not that the enemies don't gather. Now, there's a good show to watch."
When the cultivators saw this, they gloated and were happy to see it happen.
The astronomical price of four billion immortal jades had already stopped many cultivators. They did not have the financial ability.
Seeing Chen Xiao suddenly make a move and bid, Ao Bai was furious and scolded, "Chen Xiao, you want to compete with me for the Holy Blood Pill? Hmph, are you in such a hurry? I'm afraid you won't have the chance."
"What? Are you threatening me? Do you think I'm scared?" Chen Xiao retorted.
"Hmph, you have guts."
"Ao Bai, don't forget what you said just now. The highest bidder gets it," Chen Xiao said coldly.
"Alright, well said. That's right, retaliate back."
"Chen Xiao, you are good. So what if the Dragon Palace is powerful? It's just an outsider. This is the territory of the Green Cloud City, and the Dragon Clan is not allowed to behave atrociously here."
"I have long heard that Chen Xiao has a grudge with the Dragon Palace. Seeing it today, it must be true. For the sake of the Saint Blood Pill, it will probably be very intense."
Hearing the whispers around him, Ao Bai's expression also changed. His face turned green and he said angrily, "Chen Xiao, you did it on purpose?"
"So what if I did? I can only do one thing, but I can't do the other."
Chen Xiao sneered and replied.
"Hmph, alright, let's see what kind of strength you have. I bid five billion immortal jades."
Ao Bai could be said to be very decisive. The moment he made a bid, he raised the price by another billion, reaching a shocking five billion immortal jades.
Using so much money to buy a Saint Blood Pill could be considered an extremely extravagant thing. It was really hard to say whether it was worth it or not.
However, there was one thing that could be confirmed. It was far from enough to get the Saint Blood Pill with just five billion immortal jades.
"Five billion immortal jades, the current highest price, is there any higher?"
Qian Baobao's face was red as he shouted loudly.
This was the most exciting moment for him on Green Cloud Mountain. The Saint Blood Pill was indeed extremely valuable, and it attracted a lot of people to fight over it. Each one of them bid higher than the last.
"Five billion immortal jades."
Just as Chen Xiao and Ao Bai were fighting each other, and neither of them was willing to give in, someone else joined the fray and raised the price.
This time, it was Li Haoran.
Immediately, another wave of exclamations came from the crowd.
"It's Li Haoran from the Battle King Manor. It seems that he is going to bid for Li Xuan."
"Hehe, the Holy Blood Pill is really a good thing. So many cultivators are tempted by it. Even the Battle King Manor is no exception. It's a pity that we don't have such a good father and don't have that much money."
"The Battle King Manor is really willing to pay such a sky-high price of five billion immortal jades."
"Tch, what is this? I think that it will be very difficult to get the Holy Blood Pill with five billion immortal jades. That person from the Dragon Palace will definitely not give up so easily."
When Li Xuan saw this, he looked at Li Haoran, who was beside him, and said with a voice transmission, "Thank you, Uncle Haoran."
"Young Master, there's no need to thank me. This is what I should do. It's just that five billion immortal jades is already the limit, and I might not be able to get the Holy Blood Pill."
Li Haoran let out a heavy sigh and said with a sigh.
Although he had called out such a sky-high price of five billion immortal jade, he knew very well that it was far from enough to fight for the Holy Blood Pill. It was just to comfort Li Xuan and let him know that he had already done his best.
Li Xuan lowered his head and slowly raised it. He smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle Haoran, I know. My father once said that you shouldn't force things too much. It's fine as long as you try your best. You have already done your best."
“Yes, Young Master, I understand. I’m very happy.” A rare smile appeared on Li Haoran’s old face.
However, Li Xuan’s face was cold. He said, “It’s all the Dragon Palace’s fault. This Ao Bai is too arrogant. Hmph.”
“Yeah, I hope he can stop now. How can the good things of our human race fall into the hands of outsiders?”
Li Haoran’s face was also gloomy as he said sternly.
With this thought in mind, Li Haoran quietly observed the situation.
In the next moment, Ao Bai did not care at all and continued to bid, “600 billion immortal jades.”
“61 billion immortal jades.”
Chen Xiao opposed him and continued to bid, wanting to fight with him.
Ao Bai frowned and glared at Chen Xiao fiercely. He continued without changing his expression, “700 billion immortal jades.”
“Wow.”
As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar. It spread throughout the entire Green Cloud City. Countless cultivators widened their eyes and almost couldn’t breathe.
700 billion immortal jades was an astronomical figure. Many cultivators had never seen so many in their entire lives.
Li Xuan’s face was pale. He shook his head and said, “Uncle Haoran, forget it.”
“Forget it, this Ao Bai… Hmph.” Li Haoran’s face was dark and he did not say anything more.
However, the cold light in his eyes was already filled with endless killing intent and hatred.
