Chapter 302: What Are You Waiting For?
Facing the threatening words from the two in the private room, Wu Laoda remained unconcerned.
At the auction, what could they really do to him?
Seeing that Wu Laoda was not backing down, the two snorted coldly and began to bid again.
“Fifty-one thousand spiritual stones!”
“Fifty-two thousand spiritual stones!”
Wu Laoda merely raised his hand slightly:
“Sixty thousand spiritual stones!”
“Hmph, kid, when the mountain doesn’t move, the water will flow. We’ll see about this!”
After saying that, the two stopped bidding, as they still needed other items, so they didn’t want to waste their spiritual stones on these seeds of spiritual grains.
“Sixty thousand spiritual stones once!”
“Sixty thousand spiritual stones twice!”
…
“Sold!”
Seeing that he had secured the supreme spiritual grain, Wu Laoda revealed a satisfied smile.
At this point in the auction, he had successfully obtained everything Ji Yang needed.
In the private room, Ji Yang also nodded slightly in satisfaction.
Very good, next he needed to consider how to safely retrieve the items Wu Laoda bought and plan to escape from this city.
Although there were still supreme seeds of spiritual plants coming up for auction, Ji Yang did not believe he could afford to buy such rare items.
During the subsequent auction, various precious items appeared one after another: high-level Techniques, top-tier pills, magic treasures, premium crafting materials, and unique Secret Techniques!
These items tempted many, but numerous cultivators in the hall lacked the strength and could only watch the high-level cultivators in the private rooms bid.
Bidding prices soared, and at one point, a pill that could increase the probability of Spirit Transformation Stage cultivators breaking through the Void Refinement stage exceeded one hundred thousand spiritual stones.
Even if the increased breakthrough chance was only ten percent, the auction price was extremely high.
The supreme seeds of spiritual plants that Ji Yang had his eye on were claimed by the Heaven Demon Sect.
The price for the seeds of spiritual plants also surpassed one hundred thousand spiritual stones.
Wu Laoda glanced at the remaining spiritual stones in his storage bag. He had thought about bidding for a moment, but after Elder Guan placed his bid, Wu Laoda chose not to continue bidding.
This must be Ji Yang’s intention!
Wu Laoda thought silently.
As the last few prized items were auctioned off, the entire auction reached its conclusion.
Many faces were filled with joy because they had purchased what they desired in this auction.
Others, however, had dark expressions, clearly unhappy.
Most cultivators directed their resentful gazes at Wu Laoda, as they were among those who had failed to acquire the seeds of spiritual plants. If it weren’t for Wu Laoda, they wouldn’t have left empty-handed.
As the auction came to an end, many cultivators began to leave, and Wu Laoda was among the crowd.
However, trailing closely behind Wu Laoda was a large group of people. Those following him noticed that others had the same intention and began to grow wary.
There was only one prize, and with so many people, how could there be enough?
A group of people marched proudly behind Wu Laoda, causing other cultivators to shake their heads.
This person had drawn too much attention at the auction; even if he bought something, it might not end up in his hands.
If they had the strength, they would also want a piece of the action—what a shame!
Wu Laoda certainly knew that someone was following him, but he didn’t expect that the number of followers was almost as large as a sect.
This made Wu Laoda feel a bit panicked, and his previous calm demeanor vanished.
If these people truly blocked his way, it would be difficult for him to escape.
Wu Laoda glanced around, hoping to spot Ji Yang in the crowd for some reassurance, but he couldn’t see him.
Just as Wu Laoda pondered how to flee, two figures appeared ahead, blocking his path!
“Friend, our elder wishes to see you. We hope you will cooperate!”
Wu Laoda was taken aback, but when he saw the Heaven Demon Sect robes on the two, his anxiousness faded, replaced by a smile.
“What are we waiting for? Let’s go right now!”
Seeing Wu Laoda so eager, the two blocking his way were momentarily surprised.
Elder Guan’s words hadn’t explicitly asked for Wu Laoda to come, which was why they had stopped him. If he hadn’t come willingly, they would have forcibly taken him.
But this current scene was somewhat different from what they had imagined.
Wu Laoda’s calm demeanor also made their attitude more respectful, and they slightly bowed and pointed the way:
“Please, friend!”
Wu Laoda was unfazed as he waved his sleeve and walked confidently ahead.
The crowd behind him hesitated.
The two in front wore very conspicuous outfits, making them reluctant to take any action.
“Alas! What a pity!”
The others sighed, but they did not dare to continue following him for fear of being misunderstood by the Heaven Demon Sect.
They hadn’t expected that this person had a connection to the Heaven Demon Sect; no wonder he hadn’t competed with their cultivators during the auction!
Soon, Wu Laoda was led to a luxurious pavilion in the Heaven Demon Pavilion.
Inside the pavilion, Elder Guan and Elder Qu were waiting quietly, with Ren Yuning and Ji Yang accompanying them.
“Do you have confidence?”
Ji Yang silently asked himself.
“Raise the price!”
He heard the middle-aged man’s confident voice in his mind.
“No problem, I’ll find two bodies for you!”
“That’s unnecessary, but the talent needs to be good.”
“Alright, deal!”
After receiving the middle-aged man’s confirmation, Ji Yang continued to remain silent.
Instead, Ren Yuning took out the magic tool she had purchased earlier, wanting to discuss it with Ji Yang.
After all, the two elders were not interested in these topics.
Helpless, Ji Yang could only give a perfunctory response to this young lady.
Before long, two cultivators from the Heaven Demon Sect entered, and following them was Wu Laoda.
As Wu Laoda walked in, he felt a bit anxious, but when he saw Ji Yang among the elders, his panic completely vanished.
This was going to be fine!
However, when Wu Laoda noticed Ji Yang staring intently and pretending not to see him, he instantly understood.
It seemed Ji Yang may have a special purpose and didn’t want the elders to discover this matter.
Furthermore, when Wu Laoda saw Ren Yuning smiling and chatting with Ji Yang about her magic tool, he felt much more relaxed.
It seemed his assumptions were correct.
Wu Laoda then looked at the two elders preparing to question him, also wearing a broad smile.
“I greet both elders!”
Wu Laoda slightly cupped his hands to show respect.
After all, they were all on the same side, so there was no need to be overly polite, as that would feel distant!
When Elder Guan and Elder Qu saw Wu Laoda’s demeanor, they both felt a hint of surprise, especially after realizing he was only at the Golden Core Stage.
What kind of guts did this man have to remain so calm and composed in front of them?
