On the stage, Ya Fei was also shocked by Xiao Zhan's boldness. After a moment of shock, she smiled and asked,"Is there anyone else who wants to increase the bid?"
Jia Lie Bi sat in his chair, his eyes viciously staring at the smiling Xiao Zhan.
Jia Lie Bi's eyes flickered as he gritted his teeth and suddenly shouted coldly,"85,000!"
"95,000!" Xiao Zhan glanced at Jia Lie Bi with disdain and waved his hand, looking as if he was going to pay however much he wanted.
Seeing Xiao Zhan's determined attitude, Jia Lie Bi's mouth twitched slightly, but deep in his eyes, a smug sneer flashed. He seemed to hesitate as he gritted his teeth: "100,000!"
Hearing Jia Lie Bi's bid, the entire auction ground erupted into an uproar, gasps of surprise ringing out endlessly.
Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes as he watched Jia Lie Bi, who appeared to be prepared to fight to the death. He smiled gently and shook his head. He softly said to Xiao Mei and Xun Er,"I bet that if father raises the price again, that guy will immediately throw away this loss-making deal.”
Xun Er blinked her long eyelashes. She did not pay attention to the fight between the two parties. Immediately, she was a little stunned as she said,"From the looks of it, that fellow seems to really want it.”
Xiao Yan laughed but ceased speaking.
In the front row, Xiao Zhan was silent for a moment after hearing Jia Lie Bi's bid. Suddenly, he stood up and looked at Jia Lie Bi with a strange expression. After a moment, he suddenly smiled and said something that made him dumbstruck: "You win!"
The moment Xiao Zhan's words left his mouth, the entire place fell silent. A moment later, numerous gloating gazes shifted towards the ashen faced Jia Lie Bi.
"Tsk tsk, 100,000 gold coins for a bottle of Foundation Elixir. This guy is really generous.”Eyeing Jia Lie Bi's cramped face, Xiao Yan lowered his head and involuntarily laughed softly.
Watching Xiao Yan gloating, Xun Er smiled and said,"A normal tier 2 spirit herb is at most around thirty thousand gold coins on the market. A Foundation Elixir that can increase the speed of one's Dou Qi cultivation is extremely rare, so its price is much higher. However…to use a hundred thousand gold coins to buy it, that Jia Lie Bi is indeed very 'forthright.'”
Xiao Yan smiled and nodded. He smacked his lips and said with some yearning,"A bottle of tier two Foundation Elixir can be sold for tens of thousands of gold coins. I think that those powerful alchemists are all extremely fat, right?”
"Alchemists are the wealthiest profession on the Dou Qi continent. This is indeed true. Every alchemist has an extremely rich wealth.”Xun Er smiled and nodded. Her gaze swept over the Foundation Elixir on the stage and said,"However, when the tier of an alchemist becomes higher and higher, they will rarely come out to auction the medicinal herbs they refine. At that time, they will choose to barter. It is already very difficult for money to move them!”
"Barter?" Xiao Yan's eyebrows quietly raised. He somewhat understood why Yao Lao had such a rich collection.
"Yes, use Qi Methods, Dou Techniques, or rare medicinal ingredients, high grade Monster Cores, and other things to exchange for the Spiritual Medicine from the hands of an alchemist.”Xun Er's red lips curled up as she softly said,"Hence, being an alchemist is the most enviable occupation on the continent. Everyone wants to become an alchemist, but the harsh conditions have destroyed countless people's thoughts.”
Looking at Xun Er's regretful face, Xiao Yan rubbed his nose.
The two of them stopped talking and turned their gazes towards the ashen faced Jia Lie Bi.
Jia Lie Bi was also stunned by Xiao Zhan's words. He foolishly looked at Xiao Zhan, who had given up without any hesitation. The corners of his eyes twitched. After a long while, he said in a hoarse voice,"Bastard, you're acting again!"
"Hehe, aren't you the same? It's just that your mind hasn't been very clear recently and your acting is a little fake.”Xiao Zhan said with a faint smile, his tone full of sarcasm.
"Good, good. Xiao Zhan, I, Jia Lie Bi, will remember this!”Taking a few deep breaths, Jia Lie Bi's eyes were cold and venomous.
Xiao Zhan ignored this threat and sneered. He turned to Ya Fei and said,"Miss Ya Fei, let's proceed with the final auction.”
Ya Fei smiled and nodded her head. She maintained her reserved smile.
Sending a comforting smile to the ashen faced Jia Lie Bi, Ya Fei once again bent down and took out the last two bottles of Foundation Elixir. Smiling sweetly, her red lips parted slightly: "Everyone, this is the last batch of spirit liquid. The starting bid is still thirty thousand gold coins.”
Seeing the last batch of spiritual liquid come out, the elders sitting beside Xiao Zhan suddenly trembled and quickly cast a vague look at Xiao Zhan.
Sitting on the chair indifferently, Xiao Zhan ignored the looks of the elders. After looking around the quiet arena, he said indifferently,"Fifty thousand."
Hearing Xiao Zhan's bid, Jia Lie Bi's face twitched once more, and his mouth moved. However, when he thought of the lack of funds, he could only bitterly shut his mouth.
On the other side, Ao Ba Pa looked at the indifferent Xiao Zhan and frowned. His finger gently tapped on the back of his hand. His eyes flickered slightly and he smiled,"Fifty-five thousand."
Ao Ba Pa's bid didn't make Xiao Zhan's expression change. He casually glanced at it and said indifferently,"65,000."
"Hehe, Patriarch Xiao is truly generous. However, I'm afraid that I'll be dragged into your trap. I've already successfully purchased this Foundation Elixir, so I'll give it to you this time.”Seeing Xiao Zhan raise the bid, Ao Ba Pa hesitated for a moment. It seemed that the huge loss Jia Lie Bi had suffered earlier had made him more vigilant.
Looking at Ao Ba Pa's fake smile, Xiao Zhan also smiled in agreement. Leaning back in his chair, he said in a low voice,"Damn it, I got another 10,000. This bastard is not a good person either.”
Seeing that the auction was about to end, Xiao Yan found an excuse to slip out of the auction. Xiao Mei knew that Xiao Yan was going to get money and pick up girls.
As the auction ended, Xiao Mei followed the Xiao Family members out of the auction hall and saw three figures slowly walking out from another door.
Blinking her eyes, Xiao Mei knew that Xiao Yan was going to pretend to be thirteen.
Looking up at the three people who were getting closer and closer, Xiao Zhan squeezed out a smile on his face. He quickly took two steps forward and said with a smile,"Miss Ya Fei, Grandmaster Gu Ni, ha ha, it's really rare to see the two of you appear at the same time.”
Ya Fei and Gu Ni had already seen them when they came out. When they saw Xiao Zhan come out to speak, they slowed down their steps, but they shifted their eyes to the black-robed man in the middle. When they saw that the black-robed man had also stopped, they heaved a sigh of relief.
"Haha, I'm just sending off an esteemed guest." Ya Fei said with a smile.
"Oh, hehe!" Jia Lie Bi, who was standing by the side, also smiled as he walked over. He turned his gaze towards the black robed person behind Ya Fei and asked in a seemingly casual and polite manner,"Hehe, I wonder if this gentleman is also from Wu Tan City? Hehe, you look a little unfamiliar."
"Cough! Patriarch Jia Lie, the old mister is a distinguished guest of the Primer Auction House!”Grandmaster Gu Ni's brows furrowed slightly and he coughed dryly, reminding Jia Lie Bi not to ask any random questions.
Hearing Grandmaster Gu Ni's warning tone, Jia Lie Bi's expression changed slightly and he no longer spoke.
Seeing that Jia Lie Bi had met with a soft rebuff, Xiao Zhan, who was standing at the side, swallowed his words. Looking at Gu Ni's posture, this black-robed man was obviously not on the same level as them. He could only smile in agreement and prepared to tactfully lead his men away.
