Chapter 1600: 1600
Chapter 1600 (Raw 1582): Mysterious Pirate Banner
“Seven million Spirit Jades . Going once…going twice, going thrice . Deal!”
The winning bid of seven million Spirit Jades shocked everyone . With no one else bidding, Xiao Chen obtained the Dazzling Sunlight True Flame as he wished .
“Congratulations to the honored guest in VIP room 3 on obtaining the Dazzling Sunlight True Flame . ”
Lan Luo smiled faintly . As she looked towards VIP room 3, interest gleamed in her eyes .
She really wanted to know who exactly the honored guest in VIP room 3 was .
To think that this person dared to risk offending Yan Xin at the critical moment to help her .
However, it was clear that Lan Luo overthought this . Xiao Chen purely wanted to obtain the Dazzling Sunlight True Flame .
No matter what Xiao Chen did, he would end up offending the other party, so he might as well just go all the way .
In a real bidding war, the final price of the Dazzling Sunlight True Flame might have reached ten million Spirit Jades .
Such a price was more than it was worth . Furthermore, Xiao Chen could suppress the other party, dealing him a psychological blow .
Who told Yan Xin not to dare to enter a bidding war with Xiao Chen, deterring others from calling out their bids as well?
“Big Brother Xiao Chen, do you really have seven million Spirit Jades?”
Fei`er was somewhat flabbergasted . Xiao Chen was truly rich . To think that he could take out so many Spirit Jades in one go .
Xiao Chen had two million Medial Grade Spirit Jades on hand . Even at the most disadvantageous exchange rate, he could obtain at least two hundred million ordinary Spirit Jades .
Naturally, seven million was nothing difficult .
“Big Brother is Big Brother indeed, truly domineering . ”
Xiao Suo felt very happy . Originally, he had been worried about Xiao Chen’s financial capabilities . Now, he was no longer worried .
At the same time, he was startled . Who exactly is this Xiao Chen?
Xiao Chen can summon a late-stage Major Primal Core ferocious beast and is incredibly wealthy . Furthermore, his strength is unfathomable .
Could Xiao Chen be an elite disciple of a Rank 3 sect that came out for experiential training? After thinking about it, Xiao Suo felt that this was plausible .
Perhaps Xiao Suo might have followed the right person .
As the auction continued, Xiao Suo kept his eyes open wide, hoping to be able to bid on the most expensive treasure .
This was the mentality of men . Since someone else was paying, he would definitely get the most expensive one . If it was something cheap, he would feel like he was cheated .
In reality, he did not realize that no matter whether it was cheap or expensive, he got it for free .
Xiao Chen just smiled and let Xiao Suo continue thinking this way . Right now, he wanted to get a sword for Luo Nan .
Xiao Chen remembered what he promised the other party .
“Next up in the auction is a treasure sword, the Cold Wind Sword, a Superior Grade Profound Tool . More importantly, It was forged by the Grave Sea’s Master Swordsmith Qian Tie . The quality is guaranteed!”
The moment Lan Luo said that, the crowd erupted in discussion .
“Unexpectedly, it is the work of Master Qian Tie! Just Master Qian Tie’s name is worth one million Spirit Jades . ”
“I don’t know who sent it over . To think that he did not use Master Qian Tie’s work for himself!”
“You can’t say that . That person might be a bladesman . Perhaps that person requires Spirit Jades to make a breakthrough . ”
“Right, right . Everything is possible . Since the Purple Cloud Pavilion said it is Master Qian Tie’s work, it’s guaranteed . ”
Xiao Chen entered deep thought when he heard all this . Then, he looked at Xiao Suo and asked, “Is this Master Qian Tie very famous?”
Xiao Suo nodded and replied, “That is natural . He is one of the top ten refiners in the Grave Sea Cluster; his accomplishments in forging swords have reached the peak . Few people can compete with him . This sword should be one of the master’s early works . However, its value will definitely be extraordinary . ”
“The master generally stays in the Grave Sea . People frequently risk danger to cross the sea to seek a sword!”
The Grave Sea!
The center of every cluster was a boundless sea . That was a truly starry sea .
The seawater had formed from the many ancient stars’ dissolution and was not water in the normal sense . The bottom of these starry seas all had ferocious beasts .
Ordinary people could not go underwater . Just a splash could smash a Veritable Personage cultivator to death .
The center of the Grave Sea Cluster was the Grave Sea .
That place was called the Grave Sea because that boundless sea had many strange graves dotting it .
Even until today, it was a place akin to a forbidden land .
However, the resources, Spiritual Energy, and natural treasures found in the Grave Sea were all of the very peak in the outer realm .
All the Rank 3 sects in the Grave Sea Cluster flocked there, making it a place where the true elites congregated .
Even pirates strived to be able to enter the starry seas .
There were many independent starry seas in the universe, all of them famous forbidden lands of the Great Thousand Realms . Being able to seek success in such places was an honor for pirates .
After a pirate barged into a starry sea once, they secured bragging rights for the rest of their life .
Xiao Chen collected his thoughts . When the bidding started, Xiao Chen contemplated for a moment before deciding to get this sword for Luo Nan .
“The Cold Wind Sword has a starting bid of one hundred thousand Spirit Jades . Swordsmen who are interested in competing for it, you may start calling your bids . ” Lan Luo finished the introductions and announced the start .
No matter where it was, cultivators who used the sword always remained mainstream .
The bids soared very quickly . However, the flurry was not as exaggerated as the sale of the Dazzling Sunlight True Flame had been . After all, not everyone was as wealthy as Alchemists .
When the price reached one million, the competition started to thin out .
“One and a half million Spirit Jades!”
Suddenly, the Ice-Snow Sword, Luo Feng, made a bid . The remaining swordsmen competing for the sword could not help silently shaking their heads . Then, they stopped raising the price .
Firstly, they were unlikely to be wealthier than Luo Feng . Secondly, they feared Luo Feng’s revenge for this .
However, Luo Feng’s bid did not last for long . Xiao Chen called out an offer from VIP room 3 .
“One million six hundred thousand Spirit Jades . ”
“Crack!”
Inside the room, the wine cup in the Ice-Snow Sword’s hand instantly shattered . Luo Feng’s expression turned so cold, it looked somewhat scary .
“Senior Brother, how about I go look for Elders from our side to borrow some Spirit Jades? There’s no need to fear this Xiao Chen,” one of Luo Feng’s junior brothers suggested .
Luo Feng’s lips curled up in a cold smile . “There’s no need . Since he likes it, he can have it . As long as he survives to do so!”
When Xiao Chen made his bid, the entire place was shocked . Unexpectedly, Luo Feng did not counter with a raise .
However, after thinking about it, they understood . Luo Feng and Yan Xin were preparing to rob Xiao Chen after this was over .
“This Xiao Chen is truly seeking trouble for himself . After offending Yan Xin, he now offends the Ice-Snow Sword . ”
“It’s over . ”
Inside his VIP room, Xiao Chen’s expression remained calm and was rather happy . Naturally, he was happy because he could keep the bid of what he wanted to buy low .
As for the discussions in the hall below, he chose to ignore them .
While one was alive, one could not possibly lack the right to buy something .
There was no such logic as far as he was concerned .
“Big Brother Xiao Chen, this sword…” Luo Nan asked as he looked at Xiao Chen .
Xiao Chen nodded and said, “I’m buying this sword for you . ”
When Luo Nan heard that, he rejoiced . This Ice-Snow Sword was personally forged by Master Qian Tie . It must be top-tier among Superior Grade Profound Tools .
As swordsmen, who did not like having a sword that they admired?
“However, that Cold Wind Sword…” Nevertheless, after some time, Luo Nan started to worry .
Xiao Chen said indifferently, “It’s fine . There are many things in the world that one can endure and give way . However, if one has to fear even when buying a sword, then what is the point of coming to this Purple Cloud Pavilion?”
Most importantly, Xiao Chen never feared those two from the very start .
“Congratulations to VIP room 3 on obtaining Master Qian Tie’s Cold Wind Sword for one million six hundred thousand Spirit Jades . ”
Lan Luo’s beautiful eyes brimmed with puzzlement . She was now even more curious about the identity of the person in VIP room 3 .
However, she had more important things to do right now .
Now, she came to the last item of the Purple Cloud Pavilion’s annual large-scale auction .
“Next up, this auction item is somewhat special and is also the last treasure of today . It is a banner, an ancient pirate banner…”
After that, Lan Luo’s subordinate brought the auction item to the platform and pulled off the red cloth .
A shabby scarlet banner appeared before everyone .
The banner pole was corroded and stained . The scarlet banner was tattered, and its design was no longer clear .
However, the ancient aura of the pirate banner shocked everyone when they sensed it .
“This is an extremely ancient pirate banner . Although our appraiser did not manage to identify its origins, it definitely has at least ten thousand years of history .
“This was found by a cultivator in the depths of the Grave Sea . This is enough to prove that the pirate banner’s master possessed an incredible identity back then . ”
Lan Luo did her best to explain the pirate banner’s history, pulling in everyone present .
“The starting bid of the pirate banner is five million Spirit Jades . Any interested friends can start the bidding . ”
However, when Lan Luo announced the starting bid, displeased sounds came from the crowd .
This pirate banner was actually pretty good . Just its historical value was worth one million Spirit Jades . If by chance—even a one-in-ten-thousand chance—the previous owner of this pirate banner was extraordinary, then it would be very worth the one million to buy it and research it .
However, such a pirate banner would be worth only one million Spirit Jades . Anyone who bought it for more than that would just be a foolish spendthrift .
Past five million Spirit Jades, the buyer would be an idiot, worse than a fool .
“Big Brother, buy it . I want it!”
When the pirate banner appeared, Xiao Suo became utterly excited . Then, he very excitedly urged Xiao Chen to bid on it .
“Pu!”
Xiao Chen spat out his wine . Then, he put down his wine cup and looked at Xiao Suo . “Are you sure?”
I might have money, but it should not be squandered like this .
