Xiao Xuan and Zhi Nu both stretched out their hands and high-fived in the air.
Pa!
A crisp sound broke the silence in the auction hall.
Everyone's eyes widened as they looked at Xiao Xuan and Zhi Nu with stunned expressions. Their gazes were focused on this master and disciple pair, filled with astonishment, doubt, and surprise.
This…
What was going on with this master and disciple pair?
Yan Bu Gui was also a little confused as to what Xiao Xuan and Zhi Nu were up to. An ominous premonition vaguely rose in his heart.
However, Xiao Xuan's expression changed from the gloomy and dispirited look from before. In the blink of an eye, it was as if he had changed into a different person. He became high-spirited and proud of himself. There was no trace of depression from before.
The child slave also clapped his hands excitedly and shouted,"Master, how do you know that this old man will definitely bid with us?”
"That old fogey just suffered a setback at our hands, he will definitely be thinking of getting back at us.”
"Didn't we buy a bunch of weapons and talismans before?
When he heard the discussions of the others, he thought that we had a special liking for weapons and magic treasures and were determined to obtain this treasured armor. Naturally, he would think of raising the price.”
"I see. Master, you're so bad, but I like you!
"Silly disciple, how can you say that about your own master?
Master isn't bad. He's just a little more scheming than some self-righteous old fogeys. If he didn't have the heart to harm others, how could he let us beat him at his own game so easily?”
Xiao Xuan knocked on the young servant's head in feigned anger. He immediately raised his head and looked at the auctioneer who had a blank expression. The corners of his mouth curled into an arc."Little Missy, this treasured armor is not fated with me. I choose to give up.”
As soon as he said this.
The entire auction hall instantly fell silent. It was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
However, an uproar immediately erupted.
"Give up?
Did I hear wrongly?
This kid didn't bid, but gave up?
！”
"What's going on?
He was so angry that his face turned red just now, but now he actually gave up so easily?
！”
"Are you deaf?
Didn't you hear what the master and disciple were saying?
It was obvious that they had known Yan Bu Gui's scheme from the start. Their previous bidding and expressions were all fake, all to beat him at his own game! Burying Yan Bugui in the pit he dug himself!”
"Humph! I knew that this master and disciple pair weren't idiots, but I didn't expect this kid to be so shrewd!”
Everyone discussed animatedly, all of them revealing expressions of disbelief.
Xiao Xuan and Zhi Nu's performance was too exquisite and wonderful. They actually deceived everyone present.
On the side, Yan Bu Gui's smug expression had already frozen.
He never dreamed that Xiao Xuan would give up.
He had already prepared all sorts of crafty and eccentric words in his mind. He planned to take the opportunity to humiliate Xiao Xuan after he won the Spirit Dragon Armor.
However, he never expected that Xiao Xuan would choose to give up so easily.
Didn't this master and disciple pair get seventeen weapons and talismans in a row?
Didn't they say that they had a special liking for weapons and magic treasures? As long as they had enough spirit stones, they would throw them out without hesitation?
What was going on?
Why was it completely different from what these people said?
！
Yan Bu Gui was dumbfounded. His mind was filled with questions and chaos.
It was as if he had been struck by lightning, and he stood rooted to the ground.
It was only when the auctioneer announced that he had bought the Spirit Dragon Armor at a sky-high price of 2.3 million middle-grade spirit stones that he came back to his senses.
But in the blink of an eye, Yan Bu Gui's face suddenly turned pale, his body swaying and almost falling to the ground.
"This little bastard actually stopped buying. He really stopped buying!”
"The value of the Spirit Dragon Armor is at most 900,000 middle-grade spirit stones, but I actually spent 2,300,000 to buy it. I'm simply stupid!”
Yan Bugui's heart was bleeding as if he had been cut into pieces by a thousand knives.
In the short time it took for an incense stick to burn, his mood was like riding a roller coaster. It went up and down, falling from heaven to the bottom of the valley.
He wanted nothing more than to rush over and tear Xiao Xuan apart.
However, he did not dare to do so because this was the Heaven's Secret Tower's auction. If he dared to rush out, he would probably be immediately chased out like a mad dog by the people of the auction house. Not only would his reputation be greatly damaged, but he would also implicate the Heaven's Secret Tower to target the Heavenly Sword Sect.
"Damned little bastard, how dare you play with me! I will never forgive you!”
"Irreconcilable?
Hehe…you should pay the spirit stones first!”
Xiao Xuan smiled. His lips parted slightly as he spat out a few cold words that were like ice shards.
Xiao Xuan's words were undoubtedly a tight slap to Yan Bu Gui's face, causing his face to burn with pain.
At this moment, the flames of hatred in his heart burned fiercely. He swore in his heart that he would definitely kill Xiao Xuan.
Yan Bu Gui took a deep breath and suppressed his anger. Then, he slowly took out a storage bag from his bosom and handed it to the attendant of the auction house.
"There are 23,000 high-grade spirit stones in here. Take them away!”
The servant took the storage pouch and opened it. After taking a look, he nodded and bowed with a smile,"Please wait a moment, distinguished guest. Due to the huge number, we need to check it!”
Yan Bu Gui nodded his head slightly, trying to pretend to be calm and collected, but the smile on his face was extremely stiff.
Hence, the servant boy poured out the spirit stones in his storage pouch in front of Yan Bu Gui and carefully checked them one by one.
After the time it took to brew a cup of tea, the servant finally kept the storage pouch and bowed towards Yan Bu Gui,""I'm very sorry, distinguished guest. You only have 22,000 high-grade spirit stones in your storage bag.”
"What is it?
Twenty-two thousand high-grade spirit stones?
! You're still short 1000 yuan?"
Yan Bu Gui was instantly dumbfounded when he heard the young servant's bid.
"How…how is this possible?"
Yan Bu Gui looked at the servant in disbelief.
"This storage bag was personally handed to me by the sect leader before I left the mountain. There are a total of twenty-three thousand high-grade spirit stones.
What was going on?
The servant shook his head and said respectfully,""Honored guest, I counted in front of you just now. I was afraid of making a mistake and specially counted three times. It is indeed a thousand yuan short. If you feel that something is wrong, you can count it yourself.”
The muscles on Yan Bu Gui's face twitched.
This Heaven's Secret Tower had always done business with evidence. There would definitely not be a situation of false accounts or fraud. This was publicly acknowledged and unquestionable.
However, Yan Bu Gui still did not believe it. He gritted his teeth and stared at the servant,""How is this possible? This is impossible. This old master knows the contents of this bag of holding very well. How can there be less?
I think you're the one fooling me, right?”
The manservant's face darkened. Just as he was about to refute, a disciple behind Yan Bugui walked out and whispered into his ear,""Master, have you forgotten? Before you came to Falling Cloud City, the few spiritual herbs you bought were all taken from here. You did spend a thousand high-grade spirit stones.”
When everyone heard that, they were instantly enlightened, and their gazes landed on Yan Bu Gui.
It turned out that all of this was actually Yan Bugui's doing.
This guy actually used the spirit stones and public funds given to him by the Heavenly Sword Sect Master to buy his own things. His guts were really too fat!
"Bastard!"
When Yan Bu Gui heard the disciple's words, his face turned green and red, and he was so angry that he almost fainted.
Spending public funds, a thief calling out to catch a thief, and now being exposed by his disciple Ci Guoguo, it was simply a scene of social death!
