Chapter 643: Chubby Girl
"Xiaofei, you don"t need to bid for Golden Flame Stone. Don"t waste Immortal Stones on them!"
Ye Xiao immediately sent a sound transmission to Xue Xiaofei, telling her not to bid for Golden Flame Stone. Hearing this, Xue Xiaofei frowned and then looked at the VIP room where Ye Xiao was and replied, "You should know how valuable this item is. This item alone can change the strength of my Sacred Land which is currently the weakest among all the Sacred Lands in Immortal Heaven World. With the weapon created by using this piece of Golden Flame Stone, my Spirit Martial Sacred Land even has the chance to become the strongest sacred land in the next thousand or more years. No sacred land will dare to look down on us or dare to threaten and attack my sacred land. How can I not bid for it?"
Ye Xiao knew that Xue Xiaofei"s reaction would be like this. So, he said, "Don"t worry about that. Actually, I"m the one auctioning this piece of Golden Flame Stone. I have many of them with me. If you want, I can give as many Golden Flame Stones as you want."
"Are you serious?" Xue Xiaofei was astonished when she heard this. She almost shout out loud, but knowing the current situation where it would not be good to shout, she suppressed her emotion and said, "It could not be...right? You have to know that Golden Flame Stones are extremely rare, to the point where they never appeared for the past five hundred thousand years. Even if you are the one to auction this Golden Flame Stone, it should be impossible for you to have many of them, right?"
Ye Xiao shook his head and laugh bitterly. He could not tell Xue Xiaofei about him having an entire mine of Golden Flame Stones. He could only make up an excuse now. He said, "You don"t have to worry about that. I have many of them. Actually, I once entered an ancient ruin and found thousands of these Golden Flame Stones there. So, giving you hundreds of them is nothing to me!"
Xue Xiaofei frowned. She could not remember who this person is and why she was finding this voice so familiar. But even if she and this man is familiar with each other, why would this man be willing to give her hundreds of Golden Flame Stones just like that. What was it that this man wants from her?
She could not help but ask, "Why are you being so kind to me. Although you and I might be familiar with each other and I"m really sorry for not recognizing you, no matter what, you shouldn"t be so kind to me, to the extent where you are ready to give me hundreds of Golden Flame Stones. What is your motive? Who exactly are you? What do you want from me?"
Ye Xiao knew that she was vigilant, she doesn"t know who he is, how could she trust him so easily?
He smiled and replied, "When you"ll see me, you"ll naturally know why I"m being so kind to you, to the point of giving so many Golden Flame Stones."
Xue Xiaofei did not reply anything to Ye Xiao this time, instead, she fell in deep thought and after a while, she looked at her master, and spoke, "Master, Let"s not compete for Golden Flame Stone this time."
"What do you mean? Fei"er, you already know how rare and valuable this Golden Flame Stone is, we absolutely could miss the opportunity of obtaining such a treasure for no reason!"
Aware of what her master wanted to say, Xue Xiaofei said, "Master, I know how valuable the Golden Flame Stone is, but I know the person who placed the Golden Flame Stone for auction. He has more of these things. Later, I"ll ask him for a few Golden Flame Stones. I believe he"ll not refuse me!"
.....
while Xue Xiaofei was talking, the time continued to pa.s.s. Very soon, the limit of ten minutes ended and the auctioneer took action once again, saying, "Everyone, I guess you all are ready now to bid for the last item of this auction, Golden Flame Stone. Everyone is now aware of the value of Golden Flame Stone so there will be no starting price. Everyone can raise the bid by as many Immortal Stones as you want. Now, I announce the start of the bid!"
"100 Million High Grade Immortal Stones!
"150 Million High Grade Immortal Stones!"
"200 Million High Grade Immortal Stones!"
"270 Million High Grade Immortal Stones!"
The moment the auctioneer told everyone to start, the crowd exploded with noise bids one after another. Everyone here knew the value of Golden Flame Stones now and understood that the final price might be more than 500 Million High Grade Immortal Stones. So, even though there was no starting price, the first bidder bid a 100 Million High Grade Immortal Stones and after that, every increase in price was at least 50 Million High Grade Immortal Stones.
Very soon, the price of Golden Flame Stone broke through 500 Million High Grade Immortal Stones, reaching 520 Million High Grade Immortal Stones.
But the process did not slow down. The crowd of people had already gathered many hundreds of millions of High Grade Immortal Stones. None of them wanted to back down and give up on Golden Flame Stone. Because of this, the price of Golden Flame Stone kept increasing without any sign of stopping.
On the other hand, Hu Bin was fuming in anger. He never expected the crowd to behave like this. For the Golden Flame Stone, he had already bided more than three times but every time, someone called out a higher price, resulting in him clenching his hand and gritting his teeth in anger.
In the fight for the Golden Flame Stone, no one thought about the Immortal Heaven Sacred Land or its strength, all they knew was that Golden Flame Stone was a must-item to get. They could not give up on this item, not unless they are out of Immortal Stones!
"760 Million High Grade Immortal Stones!"
At this time, the price of Golden Flame Stones increased to 760 Million High Grade Immortal Stones. It was also the time when more than half of the people present in the auction house gave up and choose not to compete for the Golden Flame Stone anymore due to the lack of Immortal Stones in their hands.
Now, mostly, only the cultivators from various Sacred Lands were competing for the Golden Flame Stones without stopping. Even now, every increase in the bid was more than 20 Million High Grade Immortal Stones.
"800 Million High Grade Immortal Stones!"
"1 Billion High Grade Immortal Stones!"
Hu Bin"s father, Hu Jintao gritted his teeth and raised the bid to 800 Million High Grade Immortal Stones, but not even the time to take a breath pa.s.sed and a new bid raised the price of Golden Flame Stone to 1 Billion High Grade Immortal Stones.
This voice did not appear in the fight for the Golden Flame Stone until now. Maybe, the owner of the voice was having fun while hundreds of countless people with high statuses fighting for Golden Flame Stone. Maybe, after being bored, that person finally decided to take action and directly raised the bid by 200 Million High Grade Immortal Stones.
The entire auction house fell into silence for a few moments before a huge uproar was caused among the people. They could not help but look in the direction of the voice to see who it was that raised the price of Golden Flame Stone directly to 1 Billion High Grade Immortal Stones.
Surprisingly, they discovered a chubby girl sitting at the end of the public-line seats.
At first, many of them thought that the person who raised the bid directly to 1 Billion High Grade Immortal Stones might belong to Hundred Treasure Pavilion because at first, Hundred Treasure Pavilion sent two people and they were fighting fiercely to obtain the Golden Flame Stone. However, looking at the chubby girl, they knew she was not from the Hundred Treasure Pavilion. None of them knew which background this chubby girl is actually from.
Ye Xiao, on the other hand, frowned when he saw this chubby girl. He had never seen such a character in the Second Test of First Trial. He could also feel an incredible power hidden in the chubby girl"s body. This power was something that might even threaten Ye Xiao"s life.
Ye Xiao could not see through her cultivation base no matter how he tried. This again surprised Ye Xiao. He, a dignified Middle Dao Tribulation Stage martial artist was unable to see through this chubby girl"s cultivation base and even felt a threat from the power hidden in her body, this attracted Ye Xiao"s attention a lot.
He did not know who this chubby girl was, but her appearance was something that never happened in the Second Test of the First Trial, this made Ye Xiao understand that the trajectory of events might have changed for some reason.
Maybe, the reason for this change was he himself!
