Chapter 50: Tang Feng Vomiting Blood (2/2)

The bidding war between the big-shots in the VIP booths was still continuing. At this moment, the bid was already raised to 4 million silver taels.

Within VIP booth 13, Tang Feng drank a mouthful of wine unperturbed, “It’s already at 4 million, it’s time to make my move. Call out 6 million, let's see who is able to outbid me.”

When his escort heard that, he immediately went to the window and called out Tang Feng’s bid.

Seeing VIP booth 13 bid again, the auctioneer’s smile was like a flower blossoming. He said in an excited tone: “The guest in VIP booth 13 is always surprising us. The bid now is 6 million!”

After the auctioneer called out Tang Feng’s bid, the voices in the auction hall started to quiet down. Everyone guessed that this would be the highest bid already.

Normally, Inferior Grade Spirit Stones would go for about 5 million silver taels. Tang Feng already topped that by 1 million, it was clear that he was determined to obtain it.

The guest in VIP booth 4 slapped the table angrily. His face was clearly full of anger and helplessness.

Seeing that no one else was bidding, the auctioneer said, “6 million silver taels... There should not be any higher bid than this. If there is none, then I shall start the count.”

Hearing what the auctioneer said, Tang Feng’s handsome face revealed a pleased expression. He smiled, “Not obtaining that Rainbow Flame Python inner core was not a bad thing. At least now I have enough money to guarantee that I can obtain this Spirit Stone.”

However, after waiting for a while, he did not hear the auctioneer declare the end of this round. He frowned, feeling puzzled, and said to his escort, “Go check out what’s going on. Why has the auctioneer not closed this round yet?”

That escort quickly went to the window and took a look. He only saw that the auctioneer’s expression was sluggish. He was staring at the window of VIP booth 1. His mouth was ajar and he was not saying anything.

He completely lost his demeanor as an auctioneer. The escort quickly cast his gaze at the booth across them. After taking a clear look, he trembled a little as he turned around, “Second Young Master, VIP Booth 1 made a bid again.”

Tang Feng was startled. The wine cup that was approaching his mouth paused. He felt an uneasy feeling a.s.sault him.

“VIP booth 1 is bidding again. His bid is the same as before… 10 million… gold taels!” The auctioneer wiped his forehead clear of sweat before finally speaking again.

“Bang!”

Tang Feng shattered the wine cup in his hands once again. He had a sullen expression as he coldly said, “Messing with me? Within Mohe City, no one dares to mess with me like that!”

The crowd below turned chaotic again. If this was the first time he bid 10 million gold taels, as abnormal as it was, it was still possible for people to believe it. No matter how remote the chance was, it was not too ridiculous.

However, the same person in that booth had called out 10 million gold taels for the second time. Even a fool would feel that this was not normal. No one would squander wealth like that.

The situation was now even more chaotic than before. The auctioneer remembered Nangong Yan’s instructions as he did his best to placate the crowd. After expending a great amount of effort, he managed to get the auction back on track.

Ao Jiao gently smiled, “What a scoundrel you are. You actually dared to casually call out a bid of 10 million. Nangong Yan is going to be frustrated to death.”

Xiao Chen shrugged his shoulders, “I prefer things to be straightforward. I don’t enjoy this kind of bidding war. Furthermore, this was something Nangong Yan promised me.”

“He would pay for the things that I want, no matter what the final price is. Whether he is able to do it or not, that’s his problem, not mine.”

For the following items, because the thing that Ao Jiao wanted had not appeared yet, Xiao Chen did not make any moves. The chaos caused by Xiao Chen slowly calmed down.

Just as the auction was about to end, Ao Jiao suddenly called out, “The following item is a Superior Grade Frost Iron. Make a bid for that.”

Xiao Chen did not understand as he said, “What do you want with the Frost Iron?”

Ao Jiao said, “Of course it’s useless to me. Did you think I did not see that you brought so many Moonstones with you? Did you think that Moonstone is all you need to forge a Spirit Weapon? How stupid!”

Xiao Chen blushed slightly, “I did not think too much about that. I thought that I could just use what I have on hand.”

Ao Jiao said, “Using what you have on hand is possible. However, this Frost Iron is the rarely seen Superior Grade Frost Iron. After I purify it, it will be at the peak quality.”

“If all you want is a Profound Ranked Spirit Weapon, then you can give up on this Frost Iron.”

Hearing that Ao Jiao can raise the quality of this Frost Iron, Xiao Chen felt joy in his heart. Peak Grade Frost Iron was extremely rare and precious. Xiao Chen had a smattering of knowledge about it.

In this world, aside from the very rare, naturally occurring Peak Grade Frost Iron, it could only be made by purifying Superior Grade Frost Iron.

However, this method of purification was grasped by very few people in the Tianwu Continent. As far as Xiao Chen knew, only Heavenly Craft Manor was able to do this.

Given the current situation, after he obtain this Superior Grade Frost Iron, with the large amount of Moonstones he had, it was possible for him to forge a Heaven Ranked Spirit Weapon.
