Chapter 911: Chapter 212: Why Has the Other Side Stopped Shouting?

Chapter 212

”6 million Dark Stones,” Liu Tao shouted loudly.

At these words, a moment of silence fell upon the crowd. It was clear to everyone that the Great Elder of the Artifact Refining Alliance had encountered an enemy. The way the bidding was proceeding, it was obvious that the bidder wasn’t really interested in buying the Life Spiritual Grass, but was there to make things difficult for the Great Elder...

Many people expressed sympathy for the Great Elder. Encountering an enemy during an auction was truly distressing! There was nothing to be done; the rule of the auction was that the highest bidder wins! Even if someone didn’t sincerely want to buy and were simply opposing you out of spite, repeatedly driving up the price was exasperating indeed...

Although the happiest entity was the Underground Market that organized the auction, it was truly heartwrenching to encounter an enemy in such a setting...

Several people felt that the Great Elder should give up and continue no longer, which seemed like the wise choice! Because no matter how much the Great Elder bid, the opponent was bound to raise the price...

Liu Tao sat in the private room with a smug look, his arm wrapped around a gaudily-dressed woman, thoroughly enjoying himself...

”Elder, why hasn’t the other party bid again? Could they be out of money?” the woman asked in a delicate voice.

”Heh heh—rest assured, he still has the money!” Liu Tao said with understanding.

He could tell that Liu Bei truly wanted the Life Spiritual Grass; otherwise, he would not have had the opportunity to aggravate him. Even if he didn’t know Liu Bei’s full financial strength, he had a rough idea, and this amount of money was nothing to Liu Bei...

As expected, no sooner had Liu Tao’s words faded, than Liu Bei’s voice was heard once more, ”6.1 million Dark Stones...”

”Heh heh—I must say, Elder Liu, adding just a hundred thousand at a time seems rather insincere! If you don’t have the money, you should just give up! I’ve set my sights on this Life Spiritual Grass...” Liu Tao said with a hint of mockery.

”Heh heh—the auction is a place where everyone has the right to bid. Whether I have the sincerity or your claim on the grass stands, we will naturally know in the end!” Liu Bei replied indifferently.

”Humph, 7 million Dark Stones...” Liu Tao continued to bid with a cold snort.

”7.1 million Dark Stones...” Liu Bei persisted unyieldingly.

This display earned the Great Elder the silent admiration of many. Facing such provocation from an enemy, yet remaining so composed, the Great Elder was truly extraordinary...

Invisibly, Liu Bei’s composure won him countless expressions of respect! Being cultivators themselves, the soft discussions amongst those below were naturally heard by Liu Tao, and his facial expression immediately became quite unsightly...

”10 million Dark Stones...” Liu Tao called out, vexed, and the crowd drew in a sharp breath, surprised that the price had soared to 10 million Dark Stones. The bidder was acting like a true local tycoon...

”11 million Dark Stones...” Liu Bei followed up calmly.

”The Great Elder is so domineering!”

”Yes, Great Elder, we support you!”

As many people came back to their senses and joined in the commotion, Liu Tao’s expression grew even uglier!

To those watching, the Great Elder not only had the capacity but demonstrated calmness in the face of his enemy’s challenges, and importantly, he had the financial power! He was genuinely interested in buying the Life Spiritual Grass, no matter the disruption, he did not lose his composure, bidding rashly, but instead, raised the price very decisively. It was this kind of cool spirit that significantly improved the impression of Great Elder Liu Bei for many...

This also caused Liu Tao to be filled with rage when he heard the discussions below. In his whole life, what he hated most was that whenever he was with Liu Bei, it was always Liu Bei who was worshiped and praised, while he himself was consistently ignored...
