”Is there anyone willing to offer a higher price?”

At that moment, Wu Qihao suppressed the excitement in his heart and addressed the entire crowd.

But after he called out twice, the venue fell deathly silent!

After all, few people had the financial might to dare call out a higher price.

Only Qin Tuo sat amidst the crowd, a cold sneer on his face as he watched Liu Zhenghai.

It was as if he were watching a clown!

Liu Zhenghai, however, was completely oblivious, his face a mask of smug gloating.

He turned to the entire crowd and announced loudly:

”If I win this Dharma Artifact today, once my elder brother comes out of seclusion, I will be sure to thank you all handsomely for not competing!”

These words added another weight to the scales, instantly silencing everyone.

Everyone silently speculated in their hearts. If the Liu Family’s head came out of seclusion, and with this Dharma Artifact in hand, just how terrifying would their power become?

At this thought, they all sighed internally. It seemed the Liu Family’s status was bound to skyrocket, making them the most powerful family in the entire Capital City.

Everyone began to scheme, planning to seize the opportunity later to curry favor with the Liu Family and build a good relationship with them ahead of time.

Seeing that no one dared to speak, the smug look on Liu Zhenghai’s face grew even more pronounced.

Up on the stage, Wu Qihao was also very satisfied with the price. It had already exceeded his initial expectations!

So, Wu Qihao prepared to let the dust settle and allow Liu Zhenghai to win the Dharma Artifact.

But just then, Zhu Guirong, who was in the crowd, could no longer remain seated.

He could no longer contain his agitated feelings and shouted out loud:

”I bid three point five billion!”

At this point, he could no longer afford to consider Qin Tuo’s opinion.

Zhu Guirong understood deeply that if the Liu Family really did obtain this Dharma Artifact, the power gap between their two families would only grow wider in the future.

It could even become a turning point, allowing the Liu Family to completely dominate the Zhu Family from then on.

To put it bluntly, the Zhu Family might even be annihilated by the Liu Family in the future, and this very Dharma Artifact would likely be the cause!

Thus, Zhu Guirong made up his mind. No matter what, he could not let this precious Dharma Artifact fall into the hands of the Liu Family today.

Seeing Zhu Guirong join the bidding war, Qin Tuo remained expressionless, his thoughts a mystery.

The moment Zhu Guirong spoke, everyone in the audience was stunned.

They instantly realized that the Zhu Family was about to go head-to-head with the Liu Family!

A look of surprise flickered in Liu Zhenghai’s eyes. He hadn’t expected Elder Zhu to choose to lock horns with him at this critical juncture.

Liu Zhenghai immediately jeered loudly:

”Well, well, Elder Zhu. You’ve finally decided to stop staying silent. I was starting to think you were just here to watch the show!”

As his voice fell, some people nearby joined in the laughter.

Zhu Guirong’s expression was icy as he retorted:

”This Dharma Artifact doesn’t belong to you yet. Anyone has the right to bid. Do you have a problem with that?”

Liu Zhenghai shook his head, a strange smile on his face.

”Elder Zhu, you certainly have the right to compete with me. But with the Zhu Family’s strength alone, I’m afraid it’s far from enough!”

The members of the Zhu Family were so furious their faces turned pale, and they wished they could just beat Liu Zhenghai to a pulp.

In front of so many people, Liu Zhenghai had dared to look down on their Zhu Family. This was a blatant declaration of enmity.

After speaking, Liu Zhenghai immediately raised the price.

”I bid four billion!”

”Four point one billion!”

”Four point three billion...”

The two went back and forth, constantly raising their bids, eliciting gasps of astonishment from the entire audience.

Moreover, these two represented the two great families of the Capital City, and the direct confrontation between them was a thrilling spectacle for everyone watching.

Everyone was marveling at how rich these two families were!

One had to understand, even for an ancient family with deep foundations, producing over four billion in liquid cash was no small sum.

Yet these two were casually shouting out such terrifying numbers. One could only imagine that their families’ accumulated wealth far exceeded the imagination of ordinary people.

”I bid four point five billion!”

Suddenly, Zhu Guirong shouted out a terrifying price.

After saying it, his face was flushed and his breathing grew ragged.

Clearly, this price was the absolute limit of what the Zhu Family could afford.

Beside him, a look of worry appeared on Zhu Zifeng’s face, because he knew very well that four and a half billion was a massive asset for the Zhu Family.

If they really spent it, it would be a devastating blow to their family’s foundation!

Across from them, Liu Zhenghai’s expression became strained. He was clearly shocked by Zhu Guirong’s bid.

Many people turned to look at Liu Zhenghai, their eyes filled with doubt. They wondered if the Liu Family was planning to just bow their heads and admit defeat.

Faced with these strange looks, Liu Zhenghai couldn’t bear the loss of face.

He gritted his teeth, as if having made a momentous decision, and then shouted:

”I bid five billion!”

Up on the stage, Wu Qihao’s eyes shone with unconcealed excitement. He knew he was about to make a fortune.

Beside him, Qi Wuqi nodded, also very pleased to see this outcome.

Zhu Guirong had thought his bid would force Liu Zhenghai to back down, but he never expected him to shout a price of five billion.

At this, his expression turned incredibly ugly!

’Sigh, it seems this Dharma Artifact is truly not fated to be with our Zhu Family, is it?’

Zhu Guirong thought, feeling heartbroken and desolate.

After that, the members of the Zhu Family remained silent, no longer participating in the bidding.

Seeing the Zhu Family had given up, Liu Zhenghai’s arrogance returned in full force.

He began to taunt them loudly in front of everyone:

”Isn’t the Zhu Family supposed to be so powerful? Why aren’t you bidding anymore?”

Faced with his provocation, the Zhu Family members could only lower their heads, looks of shame on their faces.

Zhu Guirong was fuming, but he couldn’t refute him.

After all, he also understood that this price was already their limit. If they continued bidding, the loss would outweigh the gain.

Liu Zhenghai immediately burst into wild laughter, laughing so hard that tears streamed down his face!

”Heh, so the Zhu Family is just a bunch of good-for-nothings!”

Facing his ridicule, every member of the Zhu Family was seething with fury.

Just as Liu Zhenghai thought the Dharma Artifact was about to fall into his hands, Qin Tuo, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.
