113 Bidding Battle (1/2)

”400,000 purple stones!” A red-cloaked old man shouted.

”500,000 purple stones! I will not let anyone have this! Mind you!” A bald old man sneered.

Once the bidding war starts, everyone crazily bid until two old men from first-rate sects battled it out. Since no one here wanted to offend them, they just hold their rage and indignance. They knew that these two old men were infamous for being merciless from their peak until now that they aged, who would want to offend such old monsters? Not to mention, these old men held high statuses inside their own first-rate sects.

”Haha! Black Snake, you really are brave this time. Don't you remember the time I greatly razed your face to the ground until you feel humiliated when we were young? I can do that again this time, you know. Even with my old bones here, that is such an easy task.” The red-cloaked old man threatened.

”And who do you think I am, Black Snake, to be afraid of you? The matter of the past is already past. Do you think with your declining power, you can defeat me who is still having most my strength when I was at my peak?” Black Snake, the bald old man, sneered. He was not afraid of Xiu Mao's power. After all, he already aged and his strength continued declining due to a huge wall of bottleneck that he was unable to pass through. If this old man gets the Breakthrough Pill advancing to a greater height. Won't it be him committing suicide? After all, once Xiu Mao gained new power recovering his peak, that would be terrifying. But on the other hand, if he got the pill, that's a different story.

”Such bold claim!” Old Xiu did not bother with this and bid, ”Very well, come at me if you have the money! 700,000 purple stones!”

Everyone was shocked as they heard this. Such a huge amount! Even Jin Rou and his companions, could not help but suck a mouthful of cold air. They knew that this bid was not the final as the battle between those two old men were heated, so they grew excitedly trying to imagine the final bid of this pill! Of course, Jin Rou, who was the creator of this, was very excited. After all, he was seeing now that the problem regarding money might be solved this time around.

”It should be me saying that to you! Come at me! 800,000 purple stones!” Black Snake shouted.

”Oh? Haha! 900,000 purple stones!” Old Xiu laughed.

The audience could not help but hold their breath at the bidding war being pitted against those two old monsters. Every bid increased a terrifying hundred thousand purple stones being the lowest. Even Mao Ren, the manager of this auction house, was scared stiffed as he watched the scenes unfolding. Although he already expected this kind of scene, seeing it live was still an entire different feeling.

The two old monsters from their respective VIP rooms continued bidding, throwing money like a garbage unneeded.

”2,000,000 purple stones!” Old Xiu shouted in annoyance. This was already his limit. He did not expect that Black Snake would push him this far. Originally, he thought that he would only use at most a few more than million purple stones. But Black Snake stubbornly bid until it reached his limit, two million purple stones. Although he was feeling a sting because of the huge amount, if he could breakthrough, then what of it, right?

Black Snake closed his eyes for a moment and smiled wryly, ”Okay, you win.” He also reached his limit and could not fork out more than the two million purple stones.

”Haha! Just a while ago, you acted so coolly yet you could not still defeat me even in terms of money. Hahahaha! Very well, the pill is now—” Old Xiu laughed heartily but was interrupted by a sudden voice of bid, ”2,010,000 purple stones.”
