Chapter 56 Starfusing Gra.s.s

As soon as he heard that voice, Long Chen recognized that it was from Xia Baichi .

After she had lost the pill battle to him and angrily revealed the scandal between her and Wei Cang, it was as if she had completely disappeared .

Now it seemed that this idiot woman would not let him obtain the infant Golden Striped Tiger so easily .

“3,500,000 . ”

“3,510,000 . ”

As soon as Long Chen countered, Xia Baichi immediately followed without hesitation . The rest of the crowd was completely silent .

In reality, an average Golden Striped Tiger’s price was somewhere between two million to two million five hundred thousand . But due to the lack of supply, it wasn’t something that could be bought so easily .

As soon as the infant was taken from its mother, it had to be immediately sold off . Otherwise if even just ten days pa.s.sed, the infant would have gradually grown up and the difficulty in taming it would shoot up, making it not worth the price .

That was why Long Chen’s bid of three million was actually quite reasonable . Since such an opportunity was rather rare, it was worth it to spend a bit of extra money .

But now that the price had surpa.s.sed three million five hundred, Long Chen had already give up on it . However, since it was Xia Baichi, he couldn’t just let it go so easily .

He needed to get the Starfusing Gra.s.s . It should be coming up extremely quickly, and if that idiot woman deliberately messed with him, the price of the Starfusing Gra.s.s might skyrocket past his reach .

“4,000,000 . ” Long Chen ground his teeth, and a trace of anger had entered his voice .

“4,010,000 . ” Xia Baichi seemed to have heard Long Chen’s anger . Her mood increased greatly and her voice even had some joy in it .

Long Chen was even more sure that this idiot woman was trying to mess with him . She probably wasn’t even interested in this Golden Spotted Tiger; her target was him .

“5,000,000,” angrily retorted Long Chen .

“5,010,000 . ”

As expected, as soon as Long Chen put his bid, Xia Baichi’s voice would immediately follow . The crowd was watching their two private rooms, everyone understanding that the two of them were at odds with each other .

“That woman is a Grand Xia princess . But as for the other private room, it sounds like he’s very young . I don’t think I recognize the voice . ”

“Wow, do you even get news? You don’t recognize the voice of Phoenix Cry’s junior generation’s number one junior warrior?”

With this reminder, that person immediately understood . No wonder the Grand Xia’s princess would go against him; so it was Long Chen!

On the day of the Phoenix Cry Lantern Festival, everyone had seen Xia Baichi lose to Long Chen, and she had fallen into disrepute . The reason everyone despised her now was because of Long Chen, so it was obvious she was now aiming for him .

Yao Niqian looked from Long Chen’s private room to Xia Baichi’s private room . No one knew what she was thinking, but a bright smile appeared on her charming lips .

“Baichi, don’t waste too much . The auction has just started . We still have to see whether there will be other good things in the auction later . We can’t spend too much just for revenge against him,” Xia Changfeng advised Xia Baichi .

This was just the start . The best items had yet to appear, and if they were to run out of money too early, then they would only be able to watch as they were taken away by others .

“No, I definitely can’t let him off after he humiliated me . I also lost the beast flame to that scoundrel . Don’t worry, I’ll use my personal money . I definitely won’t dip into yours . ” Xia Baichi was viciously glaring at Long Chen’s private room .

“Then fine . But there will be plenty of opportunities in the future, so calm down a bit . Just let it go if he raises the price again . ”

Seeing how obstinate Xia Baichi was acting now, Xia Changfeng also had no way to calm her down . He really didn’t have any way to handle this young sister of his . After all, she was a Pill Apprentice, and that status was even slightly greater than his status as a prince .

Long Chen smiled slightly . If she wanted to play, then he’d play . In any case, just waiting around was boring .

“Congratulations to princess Baichi on obtaining the infant Golden Spotted Tiger,” smiled Yao Niqian . A couple aides brought the infant down .

Since the price for it had already reached a sky-high five million gold coins, there was no need for her to call out any ‘going once, going twice’ . She directly skipped that, as it would only result in an awkward silence .

Xia Baichi was surprised . When she realized that Long Chen had schemed to make her waste her money, she couldn’t help angrily cursing, “Long Chen, you definitely won’t have a good death!”

When encountering a random crazy person shouting and cursing, you absolutely could not try to argue with them . One, you’d never be able to win an argument against an idiot, and two, even if you won, it would still be a kind of disgrace .

So Long Chen just laughed and hid inside his private room . He imagined what Xia Baichi’s current expression was .

The auction continued, and all kinds of precious items and oddities were brought out, dazzling the crowd . But Long Chen was no longer low-key as he had been for the previous items . He practically shouted out at least one bid for every single item .

The result was that as long as Long Chen bid, Xia Baichi would immediately follow . She would always bid an extra ten thousand against him, and for a while, the auction became just a battlefield between the two of them .

“1,800,000!”

“1,810,000!”

“2,500,000!”

“2,510,000!”

…

Yao Niqian laughed to the side . She didn’t say anything as both parties shouted with all their force .
