“**One hundred and twenty thousand!**”
A middle-aged man, his face flushed with excitement, shouted out the bid.
“**One hundred and fifty thousand!**”
But soon after, someone else directly added thirty thousand to the bid.
This sword, though an Emperor-level spiritual weapon, had become broken and its inherent value was not that significant anymore.
However, the residual will of its user within the blade could be invaluable. If a swordsman could comprehend and utilize it to enhance their sword intent, the sword would be worth far more than its material value. Even the mere possibility of aiding a swordsman’s sword intent was worth paying for.
In the auction hall below, the bidding continued without pause. After several rounds, the price had already soared to two hundred and forty thousand.
And it was still rising…
Ye Wushuang frowned slightly as he looked at the rusty iron sword.
This sword indeed seemed somewhat peculiar.
Ye Wushuang stood up and declared, “**Three hundred thousand!**”
As soon as he spoke, the auction hall fell into a brief silence that lasted for several seconds.
Three hundred thousand!
A direct increase from two hundred and forty thousand to three hundred thousand was a significant move.
When the crowd realized that the bid came from the Shengtian Sect, many people chose to drop out.
But there were still some who were not willing to give up.
“**Three hundred and twenty thousand!**”
“**Three hundred and forty thousand!**”
…
Bids kept being called out.
“**Five hundred thousand!**”
At this moment, a voice from the second floor private room of the auction hall rang out once again.
It was Ye Wushuang!
Seeing this, many people hesitated.
Five hundred thousand.
That amount was enough to purchase an extremely fine supreme spiritual weapon.
If the iron sword could indeed help in comprehending or enhancing sword intent, it would be worth the price. But if it couldn’t… it would be a huge loss.
After the bid of five hundred thousand was called out, many people chose to drop out.
But then…
“**Six hundred thousand!**”
Another voice rang out.
Everyone turned their gazes towards the source of the bid.
“**It’s someone from the Lingjian Pavilion…**”
“**We almost forgot. The Lingjian Pavilion and the Shengtian Sect are like fire and water. The Lingjian Pavilion would never let Ye Wushuang buy something they want!**”
“**I thought the competition would only start when bidding for the Taichu Life Stone, but it seems it has already begun.**”
The crowd quickly realized the situation and no one dared to bid at this moment.
“**Seven hundred thousand!**”
At this moment, Ye Wushuang bid once again.
“**Eight hundred thousand!**”
Sheng Yangzhou, from the Lingjian Pavilion, stood in front of the transparent wall, sneering at Ye Wushuang.
Ye Wushuang bid again: “**Nine hundred thousand!**”
“**One million!**”
Sheng Yangzhou said aggressively, “Ye Wushuang, today, in this auction hall, none of the eighteen treasures will be taken away by you!”
One million!
One million upper-grade spiritual stones could buy almost any supreme spiritual weapon.
This price was too fierce!
Hearing this, Ye Wushuang said coldly, “**Very well!**”
Then, Ye Wushuang returned to his seat, sat down with a gloomy expression, and remained silent.
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in Ye Wushuang’s ear, saying, “**Haven’t you already achieved complete sword momentum? Why do you need this broken sword?**”
Ye Wushuang turned his head and saw Tian Xinghe, with a pig-like face, had somehow slipped into the room.
“**There is a kind of energy within this sword that can be useful for my improvement. But spending a million spiritual stones on it is not worth it!**”
Tian Xinghe immediately said, “**Wow, those people from the Lingjian Pavilion really hate you to the bone!**”
A million spiritual stones, just spent like that!
Thinking of this, Ye Wushuang smiled and said, “**Go and bring your sister here.**”
Tian Xinghe immediately said, “**Why do you need her? Tell me what you want, I am the third young master of the Tianyuan Pavilion, I have great power!**”
“**What’s the point of talking to a fool like you.**”
“**Hey, you…**” Tian Xinghe thought for a moment and said, “**Alright, wait here!**”
Meanwhile, on the side of the Lingjian Pavilion, they were satisfied with buying the iron sword for one million.
The sword might not be worth one million, but preventing Ye Wushuang from getting what he wanted was good enough.
Soon, the third auction item was presented.
And in the private room of the Shengtian Sect.
Tian Qingyao also appeared.
“**What’s wrong, Young Master Ye?**” Tian Qingyao had just seen Ye Wushuang and Sheng Yangzhou’s bidding war and immediately said, “**Don’t take it too seriously, it’s not worth getting angry over…**”
Ye Wushuang immediately laughed and said, “**I’m not angry because of this.**”
Then, with the spiritual array in the room activated to block the outside view, Ye Wushuang said, “**How about we cooperate?**”
“**Huh?**”
Tian Qingyao was taken aback and said, “**Young Master Ye, we already have a cooperation!**”
“**The Taichu Life Stone is already in your hands. In this auction, all you need to do is drive up the price of the Taichu Life Stone in the end.**”
Upon hearing this, Tian Xinghe, Lin Yuzhu, Xia Yuwei, and others looked puzzled.
The Taichu Life Stone is already in hand?
What does that mean?
Ye Wushuang smiled at Tian Qingyao and said, “**As you can see, whenever I want something, the Lingjian Pavilion will definitely bid higher!**”
“**In this way, if an auction item reaches a point where no one else bids, I will bid once more. The Lingjian Pavilion will surely bid higher, and the price of the auction item will increase further. Don’t you agree?**”
Upon hearing this, Tian Qingyao’s eyes brightened.
The Tianyuan Pavilion is the auctioneer. Selling to anyone is selling. Naturally, the higher the price, the better!
Ye Wushuang continued, “**For the remaining auction items, I will continue to bid. The Lingjian Pavilion will buy them at a higher price. You will earn more. In the end, you can give me half of the extra profit. How about that?**”
Tian Qingyao immediately said, “**I am extremely in favor of this. Wait a moment while I ask!**”
At this moment.
In the auction hall.
Many people saw the spiritual array in the private room of the Shengtian Sect activated, blocking the view inside. They thought Ye Wushuang was bullied by the Lingjian Pavilion and felt too embarrassed to show his face anymore.
Inside the Lingjian Pavilion, everyone was in high spirits.
It was worth it to slap Ye Wushuang in the face with a bid of one million!
Soon, Tian Qingyao returned and said, “**My father agrees.**”
“**Great!**”
While Tian Qingyao was away, Ye Wushuang also explained the whole situation to Lin Yuzhu, Xia Yuwei, Xia Yan, and others.
Upon learning that Ye Wushuang had already obtained the Taichu Life Stone, they were completely relieved.
After all, the Lin family and the Shengtian Sect were now closely tied together.
If Su Chenyang of the Shengtian Sect could recover to his peak, it would also be very beneficial to the Lin family.
Ye Wushuang looked out the window and smiled, “**Since that’s the case, I will put on a good show next!**”
Soon, the spiritual array in the Shengtian Sect’s private room was deactivated, and Ye Wushuang and others reappeared.
By this time, the auction hall had already started bidding on the fifth item.
The fifth item was a sapling the size of a palm. This tree, called the Baihong Spirit Tree, bore Baihong Spirit Fruits that could help warriors at the Dongxu level enhance their cultivation.
At this moment, the price of the Baihong Spirit Tree had already reached one million and five hundred thousand!
