Chapter 298 - Challenging the Sly Sword Dominator

Chapter 298 - Challenging the Sly Sword Dominator

It was still acceptable for Qin Nan to bid two thousand Arcane Realm Stones for ten items in a row, but to bid for fifty items in a row, although it would result in a great profit for the Trading Alliance, they would feel dismal too.

How are the others going to bid if you keep bidding like this?

Are you trying to bully the crowd with your wealthiness!



Even the authorities who came to the auction were quite astonished. Although they had witnessed many wealthy geniuses since the very first Ancient Dragon Auction, it was their first time witnessing someone bid fifty times in a row, spending a total of one hundred thousand Arcane Realm Stones!

How significant were one hundred thousand Arcane Realm Stones?

It would definitely be a great fortune no matter where you were from within the lower district!

"Change the order of the items!"

The Six-Eared Divine Being immediately transmitted a message to Jin Xin. He was aware of Mr. Qin"s wealthiness. The weapons that he put to auction alone were already a huge fortune. If they were to allow this Mr. Qin to continue bidding relentlessly, there was no point in holding the Ancient Dragon Auction anymore.

"Got it!"

Jin Xin"s eyes flickered as he continuously transmitted ten messages at once for the required arrangements. After a while, he finally let out a smile, "Attention, the next item will be a very fascinating one! The item is a sword. According to the appraisal of the Trading Alliance, it is known as the Dark Flame Sword, which appeared over ten years ago….... It"s an Emperor Weapon!"

Jin Xin presented the item with a lengthy introduction. The red cloth covering the golden gla.s.sy stand was unveiled after he raised his tone. A crimson longsword could be seen on the stand, which emitted a buzz together with a shocking Sword Intent that filled the entire venue.

Everyone"s expressions were utterly shocked; even the authorities could not hide their interest.

An Emperor Weapon!

A presence worthy to be the heirloom treasure of any clan among the countries of the lower district, which possessed an immense value!

"The auction of the item begins now, starting at a price of one thousand Arcane Realm Stones! Each bid should not be lower than one hundred Arcane Realm Stones of the previous bid!"

Jin Xin spoke in a loud tone. As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd was immersed in a huge chatter.

"One thousand five hundred!"

"Two thousand! Two thousand!"

"d.a.m.n it, this Emperor Weapon is exactly what I"m looking for; I"ll pay two thousand eight hundred Arcane Realm Stones!"

"……"

In just less than three breaths" time, the price of the Emperor Weapon was rapidly increased, which was now four thousand Arcane Realm Stones.

A smile appeared on Qin Nan"s face as he witnessed the scene. It appeared that an Emperor Weapon would be extraordinarily valuable. Without any hesitation, he said, "Seven thousand Arcane Realm Stones!"

After hearing the words, the crowd could feel their breathing come to a halt. Some of the cultivators even turned enraged.

This a.s.shole is bidding once again, who increased the price to almost two times the previous bid!

In contrast, the eyes of the Six-Eared Divine Being and the white-s.h.i.+rted lady glistened slightly. They were clear that Qin Nan was purposely raising the price. The action had saved a lot of trouble for them, as they no longer needed to place their own minions to place the bid in order to raise the price.

The Six-Eared Divine Being, in particular, suddenly felt that this Mr. Qin was not that unforgivable.

A price of seven thousand Arcane Realm Stones was indeed quite intimidating, as the lively crowd turned silent for a moment; only the sound of cursing could be heard.

"Eight thousand Arcane Realm Stones!" The voice of a young man was heard from booth number thirteenth. "Mr. Qin, I"m Leng Jianxiong; I must acquire this Emperor Weapon, thus I hope Mr. Qin would be willing give up on it!"

Many among the crowd were startled. They did not expect Leng Jianxiong to be the first one trying of break his bidding frenzy of fifty times in a row.

Qin Nan nodded his head. Eight thousand Arcane Realm Stones was quite a lot, which was sufficient to buy an Emperor Weapon.

At that instant, a hideous laugh was heard from booth number ten, "Leng Jianxiong? Who do you think you are; you won"t be receiving any respect here! I"m known as the Sly Sword Dominator, and I"m looking for a suitable sword. I bid nine thousand Arcane Realm Stones!"

Many among the crowd took a sharp breath after hearing the words.

"The Sly Sword Dominator, what a surprise; he is a fresh Martial Dominator, who eliminated two sects not long after his level up!"

"Yeah, according to the rumors, this person is extremely cruel and venomous, who is currently hunted by many experts. It"s quite a surprise to find him here at the Ancient Dragon Auction!"

"This will be a great show. I"m not sure if Leng Jianxiong will stop bidding though!"

"……"

Following the loud chatter, Leng Jianxiong"s face turned utterly unpleasant. The sect he was currently in was nowhere the opponent of the Sly Sword Dominator.

Did that mean this Emperor Weapon was going to be the possession of the Sly Sword Dominator?

At that instant, a calm voice could be heard from booth number six, "Sly Sword Dominator, is it? From which pile of junk did you appear from? Leng Jianfeng"s behavior was quite acceptable; he knew to notify me beforehand, but you dare not to greet me in the first place. Does that mean that you have no respect for me either? I"ll give you a few options; either you give up on bidding, or prepare to have a taste of my money!"

The crowd could only feel a chill creeping into their spines after hearing this, causing their hair to stand on end.

Have a taste of my money?

It was their first time hearing such prideful words, despite living in the lower district all these years!

Inside booth number ten, the Sly Sword Dominator"s face turned incredibly unpleasant; although Qin Nan"s formidable background had allowed him to gain Jianghuang"s favor, he himself was also a Martial Dominator, an expert that could roam freely within the lower district. Since when had he allowed someone to disrespect him like this?

The Sly Sword Dominator let out a spooky smile and said, "Mr. Qin, I know you possess a formidable background; what"s the point of picking on me? However, I do want to witness with my eyes how Mr. Qin is going to let me have a taste of his money! I"ll bid ten thousand Arcane Realm Stones!"

Ten thousand Arcane Realm Stones!

Normally, an Emperor Weapon would never cost this much.

The smile on the Six-Eared Divine Being"s face grew wider. He loved to see cultivators competing with one another in an auction, as the one benefiting the most would be the Trading Alliance.

"You dare to bid with the mere price of ten thousand? I"ll bid eleven thousand!" Qin Nan said.

"Eleven thousand? I"ll bid thirteen thousand then!" The Sly Sword Dominator"s face turned pale; thirteen thousand Arcane Realm Stones were equivalent to a third of his possessions, but he could not let go of his ego just like that!

"I"ll forfeit if you dare to bid fifteen thousand Arcane Realm Stones!"

"Fifteen thousand it is! I"ll bid fifteen thousand Arcane Realm Stones!" The Sly Sword Dominator groaned.

"Wow you are impressive, that toy will be yours then!"

Qin Nan"s words were exceedingly shocking.

At that instant, the Sly Sword Dominator was stunned—the whole crowd was stunned.

What was going on?

Did Mr. Qin just give up on bidding?

What the f**k!

That"s absolutely shameless!

Didn"t he threaten to unleash his wrath using his money, and he even wore a ferocious look on his face; why would he give up all of a sudden?

The Six-Eared Divine Being inside the second booth almost burst out laughing. Although this Sly Sword Dominator was a Martial Dominator Realm expert, he was easily baited by Qin Nan to bid two times higher than the expected price!

"You!"

The Sly Sword Dominator collected his thoughts as he was finally aware of Qin Nan"s plan. That"s a total of fifteen thousand Arcane Realm Stones, and I only ended up buying an Emperor Weapon—such a waste!

"Mr. Qin, I didn"t expect you to give up so easily, I thought you were better than that! It appears that you are only a coward, haha! Although I"ve spent quite an amount of Arcane Realm Stones, to be honest, I think it"s quite worth the value since the crowd is able to see your true face now!"

After all, the Sly Sword Dominator was still a Martial Dominator with abundant experience; he immediately rebuked after he recovered from the shock.

The crowd now glanced at booth number six with disdainful looks. They agreed with the Sly Sword Dominator"s words; This Mr. Qin was so c.o.c.ky in the beginning, but it turned out that he was only a coward.

Qin Nan would not fall for such an obvious prodding, as he snapped without any mercy, "I can do whatever I please; my plan was to have you pay twice the amount since the very start! If you are not convinced, feel free to fight me! If you don"t dare to do it, then shut the f**k up! I"ve the right to play however I want, and an old man like you should keep your mouth shut!"

Chapter 299 - A Surging Turbulence for the Finale

How scornful was that?

He even dared to disrespect a Martial Dominator!

The crowd could feel their lips twitching, but since they had already witnessed how smug this Mr. Qin was, it was not too difficult to survive the shock this time.

The Sly Sword Dominator"s face turned utterly dark.

Despite roaming across the lower district for many years, it was his first time seeing someone disrespect him to this extent!

That being said, he had no choice but to clench his teeth and endure his anger, purely because even Jianghuang had to treat this Mr. Qin with full respect.

"F**king little p.r.i.c.k, you"ll definitely regret your smug att.i.tude one day!" The Sly Sword Dominator cursed in his mind. 

The incident soon came to an end, as the auction continued in full swing.

Qin Nan kept on bidding for the items; every item that the Longhu Ancestor Beast and Princess Miao Miao were keen for would end up in his hands. After all, money was the least of his concerns at the moment, and it was all thanks to the Trading Alliance, thus he showed no hint of feeling guilty.

As the auction approached the end, Qin Nan had bought one hundred and three pieces of treasure, each bidded with two thousand Arcane Realm Stones, resulting in a total of two hundred and six thousand Arcane Realm Stones!

"The auction is approaching its finale, and I believe everyone has been antic.i.p.ating the upcoming items from the very beginning. Let"s start with the first item of the finale; five Emperor Weapons!"

Jin Xin uttered a yell, as five Emperor Weapons were displayed on the golden gla.s.sy stand before him, emitting a shocking aura.

The crowd was utterly astonished.

"These five Emperor Weapons are no ordinary Emperor Weapons. According to our appraisers, their Weapon Spirits belong to the same type of Weapon Spirit! In other words, if one were to refine these five Emperor Weapons at the same time, the person would be able to freely control five Emperor Weapons in a battle, granting him terrifying strength!"

As soon as Jin Xin"s thunderous voice dissipated, an uproar took place among the crowd.

"F**k me! These five Emperor Weapons are insane!"

"If I were to buy all these five Emperor Weapons, does that mean I"d be able to establish a huge formation?"

"……"

The cultivators were all experienced, as they soon realized the uses of these five Emperor Weapons possessing the same type of Weapon Spirit.

Jin Xin immediately grabbed the chance of utilizing the lively atmosphere as he let out a yell, "These five Emperor Weapons will be sold in a bundle, with a starting price of forty thousand Arcane Realm Stones; each bid must be a thousand Arcane Realm Stones higher than the previous price!"

After hearing the words, the huge chatter instantly turned quiet.

That"s forty thousand Arcane Realm Stones; any ordinary person wouldn"t be able to partic.i.p.ate in the bid.

"Forty three thousand!" At that instant, the voice of the manager of the Ancient Gambling Store, Peng Yu, could be heard coming from the fifth booth.

He was extremely interested in these five Emperor Weapons. Furthermore, they could also serve as the heirloom weapons of his store.

"Brother Peng, I"m sorry. I"m interested in these five Emperor Weapons too. I"ll bid a price of forty four thousand Arcane Realm Stones." A voice was heard coming from the sixth booth, who turned out to be the owner of the Qingxin Inn.

Peng Yu"s face remained expressionless as he said, "Then I"ll bid forty five thousand Arcane Realm Stones. After all, they will only belong to the one bidding the highest price."

"I agree with Brother Peng, I"ll bid forty six thousand Arcane Realm Stones."

"……"

The crowd could feel their hearts racing.

They did not expect Peng Yu and the owner of the Qingxin Inn to compete with one another directly at the auction, as if there existed a conflict between them.

The Six-Eared Divine Being let out a grin; he could not care less of the conflict between the two, as long as the price continued to be raised. Upon having this thought, he instinctively glanced at booth number six. It was all thanks to Mr. Qin. If it weren"t for him, he would not be able to make such a profit from the auction.

Meanwhile, Qin Nan himself could not help but chuckle.

Both Peng Yu and the owner of the Qingxin Inn were his enemies; seeing his enemies competing with each other to buy his stuff that would bring him a great profit was quite a joyful sight.

"Sixty five thousand Arcane Realm Stones!" Peng Yu clenched his teeth and bid a tremendous price. Following it, the owner of the Qingxin Inn fell silent, who seemed to have given up on bidding further.

"Congratulations to the owner of the fifth booth, these five Emperor Weapons now belong to him!" Jin Xin said while squinting his eyes. His voice turned softer following it, but the magical effect that was capable of provoking the crowd grew stronger, "Now for the final piece of the auction, we present you our best item as the finale…"

After saying this, his voice came to a halt. As expected, the attention of the crowd was attracted.

Many of the authorities could feel themselves becoming excited.

They were all here for this final piece of the auction!

"I present you the final piece of the auction—five Emperor Weapons and three Dominator Weapons. These weapons will be sold in a bundle, as their Weapon Spirits are all of the same type!" Jin Xin raised his tone to the max. Following this, a beam of light descended from above onto the stage, which contained three Dominator Weapons and five Emperor Weapons within the light, resulting in a shocking aura!

BANG!

An uproar took place at that instant, as if a grenade had been tossed into the crowd.

"What? Did I hear that right?"

"Gasp, what a crazy sight; the Ancient Dragon Auction is going all out this time!"

"……"

The rogue cultivators and the authorities were utterly flabbergasted. They did not expect to see such valuables here at the Ancient Dragon Auction.

That was because a Dominator Weapon alone was incredibly rare within the entire lower district, not to mention a bundle of three Dominator Weapons and five Emperor Weapons!

Jin Xin"s face reddened as he let out a roar, "Ladies and Gentlemen, the starting price for this final item will be one hundred thousand Arcane Realm Stones! Each bid must be five thousand Arcane Realm Stones higher than the previous price!"

"I bid one hundred five thousand Arcane Realm Stones!"

"One hundred and twenty thousand Arcane Realm Stones!"

"One hundred and twenty thousand? I am the emperor of Lanxuan Kingdom, I"ll bid one hundred and forty thousand!"

"What a s.h.i.+tty emperor; I"ve never heard of it before. I"m bidding one hundred and fifty thousand Arcane Realm Stones!"

"……"

At that instant, the price continued to be increased at a terrifying speed.

The authorities seated inside the booths on the first-floor could no longer remain calm and uttered their bidding prices, as if they were about to wage a war against each other.

Both the Six-Eared Divine Being and Jin Xin wore blossoming smiles on their faces. They purposely bundled the three Dominator Weapons and five Emperor Weapons together so that the crowd would go crazy for them, and that was the exact effect they planned to see.

Meanwhile, the price had risen to two hundred thousand Arcane Realm Stones!

The crowd of cultivators was incredibly shocked, as they gulped down mouthfuls of saliva. Although they did not take part in the auction, they could feel their hearts beating rapidly.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, I am bidding three hundred thousand Arcane Realm Stones! By the way, I"m cooperating with Envoy Fang Jian to bid for these three Dominator Weapons and five Emperor Weapons. I hope you are willing to give up on bidding further as a sign of respect. I"ll repay your kindness in the future!" The gloomy voice of the One-Handed Martial Dominator could be heard coming from booth number four.

The lively atmosphere of the scene turned dead at that instant, as the expressions on the faces of the authorities stiffened.

Envoy Fang Jian!

They had no doubt heard of this name before; it was the name of an envoy of the Qinglong Sacred Area, who had become extremely powerful!

According to the rumors, this Envoy Fang Jian had earned the favor of a Peak Leader, which allowed his reputation to grow rapidly. He would no doubt become a Martial Dominator expert in the future with all the available resources!

The Six-Eared Divine Being"s expression turned dull at that instant. The bundle of Dominator and Emperor Weapons was expected to reach a price of at least five hundred thousand Arcane Realm Stones, but now with the interference of the One-Handed Martial Dominator, it was highly possible that no one would dare to bid further.

"This G.o.dd.a.m.ned One-Handed Martial Dominator, he dares to use Fang Jian"s name…" The Six-Eared Divine Being cursed in his heart, as he tried to come up with a plan to stop the One-Handed Martial Dominator from disturbing his plan.

However, at that instant, a voice that had remained silent for quite a long time suddenly reappeared.

"Fang Jian? Who the h.e.l.l is that! I"m bidding four hundred thousand Arcane Realm Stones!"

The one speaking was none other than Mr. Qin!

Chapter 300 - Offending Everyone!

It had not been too shocking when Qin Nan challenged the Sly Sword Dominator, but he was now going against the will of the One-Handed Martial Dominator—whose cultivation had reached half-Martial Highness Realm—and the Envoy Fang Jian, who had a bright future ahead of him!

In comparison with the Sly Sword Dominator, it was like the difference between Heaven and Earth.

At that instant, the cultivators kept quiet, as they switched their gazes between booth number six and booth number four.

The compet.i.tion for the ultimate bundle being auctioned; who would stand victorious among the two?

At that instant, the Six-Eared Divine Being wore a joyful expression on his face. This Qin Nan was indeed his greatest helper, to solve his greatest troubles at the best timing possible.

"Tsk tsk, such daring words, to not treat Envoy Fang Jian with respect." The One-Handed Martial Dominator"s face turned unpleasant, as he let out a groan, "I have no idea which faction Mr. Qin belongs to, but this is the lower district! In the lower district, the day turns dark at night, and people will occasionally lose their heads while walking on the street; Mr. Qin, please think twice before you act!"

The eyes of the crowd glistened.

It was obvious that the words were filled with a sense of threatening.

"Oh?"

Qin Nan squinted his eyes. Being threatened was the least of the things he was afraid of, as he replied, "Cut the bulls.h.i.+t, please leave if you don"t have the money to bid further! By the way, don"t think you are powerful with your half-Martial Highness Realm cultivation! If you were to enrage me, even a Martial Highness Realm expert could not guarantee your safety!"

"You!"

The One-Handed Martial Dominator"s face turned utterly contorted, as his figure began to s.h.i.+ver due to his anger.

Since when had he been embarra.s.sed like this after becoming a half-Martial Highness?

That being said, he had no choice but to withhold his anger. After all, even Jianghuang had to mind his words before this Mr. Qin, who dared to challenge the Saintess; he surely possessed a formidable background.

Although he could not unleash his anger, it did not mean that the One-Handed Martial Dominator would let it go easily, as he said in a cold tone, "Mr. Qin, since you are so rich, let"s have some fun bidding for the bundle, but I hope you won"t give up so easily like last time! I"ll bid five hundred thousand Arcane Realm Stones!"

"Give up? I"ll show you my true colors today; six hundred thousand Arcane Realm Stones!"

"Seven hundred thousand Arcane Realm Stones!"

"You dare to bid with a mere price of seven hundred thousand Arcane Realm Stones? Eight hundred thousand! Do you have the guts to bid further?"

"Nine hundred thousand! Don"t you give up now!"

"One million! Do I look like I"m giving up!"

"……"

At that instant, the authorities and the rogue cultivators stared with their eyes open wide. They could feel their hearts skipping a beat whenever they heard such a shocking figure being uttered.

As for the Six-Eared Divine Being, he could not help but burst out laughing after seeing this. It did not matter who would end up winning the auction, as the Trading Alliance would definitely earn a great fortune from it!

The One-Handed Martial Dominator inside the fourth booth was utterly furious, who clamored, "One million three hundred thousand Arcane Realm Stones! Mr. Qin, if you are truly courageous, do bid one million five hundred thousand Arcane Realm Stones next, and I"ll be utterly convinced! However, it"s ok if you chose to give up too, as long as you admit that you are a true coward!"

The One-Handed Martial Dominator was not stupid; he would never waste his time bidding with Qin Nan, What if it"s actually a trap?

Therefore, it"s better to let this idiot suffer a great loss!

The attention of the crowd was gathered onto booth number six.

That"s a total of one million five hundred thousand Arcane Realm Stones, which was two times the normal price of the bundle. Would this Mr. Qin choose to forfeit, or bid further?

Even the authorities held their breaths at that instant.

"You win!"

Qin Nan uttered a laugh and said, "Don"t you dare prod me; this dirty trick has no effect on me. Since you are being so sincere, I"m more than happy to give you the chance of winning the auction! Don"t feel too touched by my words, just treat it like a grace from me!"

BANG!

It was as if a grenade had exploded inside the venue.

The crowd was stunned, the authorities were stunned. Even the One-Handed Martial Dominator"s expression stiffened at that instant.

Although they knew that this Mr. Qin had decided to give up on the bid, Why would you say such words after giving up?

Giving you a chance to win the auction?

Don"t feel too touched?

Treat it as a grace?

Even the cultivators and authorities felt like vomiting blood at that instant.

Shameless!

Shameless to the max!

How was it possible for such a shameless person to exist in the world!

"Well, well, well!" The One-Handed Martial Dominator almost lost his mind as he spoke in an icy tone, "How nice of Mr. Qin, I"ve definitely learned something new today! I"ve never seen someone be so smug after admitting defeat! Let me make this clear—you should pray that you don"t stumble into me in the lower district. Otherwise, I"ll definitely teach you a nice lesson of how to mind your own words!"

Most of all, the One-Handed Martial Dominator was still a presence with a half-Martial Highness Realm cultivation, who possessed his own dignity. Since this Mr. Qin had dared to offend him continuously, given the chance, he would definitely cripple him and cut his tongue out to resolve his anger!

"I agree with the One-Handed Martial Dominator. Mr. Qin, don"t a.s.sume that you"re unmatched in the lower district!" The Sly Sword Dominator let out a cold grin. He would not dare to threaten Qin Nan by himself, but since the One-Handed Martial Dominator had made the first move, he had nothing to be worried about now.

"The two Martial Dominator Realm seniors are right; Mr. Qin has gone too far with his words. He should definitely be taught a lesson."

Peng Yu and the owner of the Qingxin Inn let out a smirk.

Not only had Mr. Qin offended their Saintess, he had offended so many people here; Even with his formidable background, there was no way he could survive the anger of this many people, right?

The rogue cultivators could feel their hearts racing. This Mr. Qin had caused many of the authorities to turn enraged; s.h.i.+t"s going down.

What would he do now?

"Stop wasting my time; come and fight me if you have the guts; I don"t care if it"s two or three of you at a time, I"ll fight you all!"

Following a loud roar, Qin Nan challenged the entire crowd after smas.h.i.+ng the door of his booth with a kick, resulting in a loud explosion.

Just like his previous plan, if he were to act conceited, he would act conceited until the very end!

Martial Dominator?

Half-Martial Highness Realm?

Trying to join forces with each other?

Bring it on!

"How bold!"

The One-Handed Martial Dominator became enraged. With a loud roar, a terrifying aura was emitted from his body and filled the entire venue.

"Humph!"

The Sly Sword Dominator, Peng Yu, and the owner of the Qingxin Inn all wore twisted faces, as auras of the Martial Dominator Realm were unleashed from their bodies.

BUZZ!

The entire venue began to shake vigorously at that instant.

The cultivators were utterly shocked, Were they really going to declare war against each other here?
