Obviously, 10,000 Black Crystal Coins was a dividing line in strength. At this price, there were only two or three bidders, and they were all the distinguished guests of the Changlong Auction House.
In just five minutes, under the shocked gazes of everyone in the auction hall, the price was quickly raised to twenty-three thousand Black Crystal Coins. Only at this price did the competitors pause for a moment. It seemed that they were carefully considering whether the complete Spirit Core of the Great Butterfly Moth was worth so much money, although it was rare.
"Thirty thousand!"
An ordinary voice that faintly contained an irresistible aura came from the VIP room. It seemed that someone had made up his mind to get this spirit core and had actually personally made a bid.
The entire hall instantly became extremely quiet, as if everyone's vocal cords had lost their function. Perhaps the people from the other two families who had come to compete were also very surprised. For a moment, they could not react at all. They watched helplessly as the beauty on the auction stage dropped her small hammer. Her delicate lips opened and slowly spat out two words with a fragrant smell.
"Deal!"
A precious spirit core was sold at such a shocking price. Xiao Chen, who was in the VIP room, was shocked speechless by the sudden "huge sum". It was already beyond his expectations to sell it for 30,000 black gold coins. After the transaction was successful, the staff of Changlong Auction House transferred 28,500 black crystal coins to him through a crystal card. Only then did Xiao Chen fall into the excitement of a windfall.
The remaining time was for Xiao Chen to excitedly look at the long string of numbers on the crystal card in his hand while anxiously waiting for the auction of the Dark Yin Stone. As for whether the money on hand was enough to buy the Dark Yin Stone, it was no longer in his consideration.
"Dark Yin Stone, a rare spiritual item that can only be found in underground mines with dense Yin Qi. It can be used as a formation material for many high-level spiritual arrays. It is also a refining material for Spirit Dividing Pills, Essence Transforming Pills, and other medicinal pills.”
This was originally the last item of the auction, and it wasn't considered too bad among the last items of the previous auctions. However, after the spirit core of the Great Butterfly Moth was sold for 30,000 Black Crystal Coins, this ball-sized Dark Yin Stone no longer attracted the attention of so many people present.
"350!" "I bid 370!" "I bid 390!"
Three consecutive bids broke the deadlock. The gorgeous woman on the auction stage heaved a sigh of relief. She was afraid that there would be an awkward situation after everyone suffered the pressure of the sky-high price of the spirit core. Now, they had finally overcome the difficulty.
"The guest in the seventh VIP room bids five hundred Black Crystal Coins!”
If it was before the spirit core of the Great Butterfly Moth was auctioned off, Xiao Chen would never have bid such a high price. However, now that he had more than 30,000 Black Crystal Coins with him, he spoke more generously. He directly instructed the servant outside the room to bid a high price of 500 Black Crystal Coins, instantly suppressing the bidders.
It was unknown whether the previous bidding had exhausted the spirit of too many people, or whether this Dark Yin Stone was really of no help to those distinguished guests, but after Xiao Chen raised the price to 500 Black Crystal Coins, no one else bid anymore. With the beautiful woman's gavel, this not too precious but rather rare Dark Yin Stone fell into Xiao Chen's hands.
It was not uncommon for the last item to be auctioned at a price lower than the previous item. However, it was extremely rare for the previous item to be auctioned at a price dozens of times higher than the last item. After Xiao Chen successfully ended the transaction, this grand but rather strange auction came to an end.
The auction was over, but Xiao Chen still needed a 100-year-old Orchid Grass. This thing couldn't be bought in the outside market, so he wanted to use this auction to see if he could buy it from the owner of the auction, the Xu family.
"Sir, do you want a 100-year-old or older Zilan Grass?”
Xiao Chen had just gotten someone to inform the higher-ups of the Xu family that he needed the Zilan Grass when he heard a clear and pleasant voice coming from behind him. He turned around and saw that it was the charming woman who had hosted the auction earlier.
"Yes, may I know who you are?"
"Xu Yanbing, Changlong Auction House's representative in Dark Night City.”
The charming woman smiled lightly, but it made a trace of temptation naturally spread. Whether it was in his previous life or now, Xiao Chen had never interacted with a beautiful woman, so he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
"Our Changlong Auction House has a 200-year-old Orchid Grass in our warehouse. If Sir wants it, we can give it to you for 200 Black Crystal Coins.”
As Xiao Chen was not tall enough, Xu Yanbing had no choice but to lean forward to talk to him. However, in this position, the collar of her shirt could not help but droop down, allowing Xiao Chen's eyes to see the deep cream-white gully.
Xiao Chen's throat moved as he swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He tried his best to use his calmest voice to speak.
"Alright, then we can make a deal now.”
After Xu Yanbing had obtained the 200-year-old Orchid Grass from the warehouse, Xiao Chen was afraid that he might not be able to withstand the temptation. He had left the auction house as soon as he had obtained the wooden box containing the Orchid Grass.
However, he did not notice that the beautiful and charming woman was looking at his figure with a playful smile on her lips.
┅┅
In the dark night, a dark cloud floated in the sky. With a few " booms " of thunder, the rain began to fall in the sky above Dark Night City.
Under the cover of the night and thunder, a group of black-clothed men quickly lined up from a secret exit of the Changlong Auction House. They moved in an extremely orderly manner, but they made very little noise as they quickly headed towards the largest medicinal herb shop in the center of the city.
Without any instructions or actions, this group of people seemed to have practiced it countless times. They easily crossed the wall of the medicinal herb shop under their cooperation. Then, like dead souls in the dark night, they silently entered the rooms inside the shop. A moment later, a few muffled sounds were heard in the air. Then, a bloody smell gradually spread along with the hazy fog formed by the rain. However, the entire shop was dead silent.
The leader of the men in black waved his hand, and the group of people once again entered the endless darkness with the rain like every precise gear on a machine. It was as if they had never appeared here.
The long night passed minute by minute amidst the hazy blood aura. The sky gradually brightened, but the black clouds still piled up to the horizon. Only a gray thread of white could be seen entangled in the black clouds. The morning breeze blew gently in Dark Night City, dispersing the smell of blood to every corner. Finally, the people who woke up early noticed the smell of blood. They then discovered that the owner of the famous medicinal herb shop, Zhang Quande and Zhang San Ye, had been exterminated overnight, leaving no one alive.
