Chapter 633: Priceless Fowl (2/2)

Everyone at this scene had their breaths taken away by Li Qiye’s frightening bid.

The auctioneer was completely stunned. The Golem Square was quite famous in the Giant Bamboo Country and the Alchemy Realm, ranking among the top five.

And among the auctions he had hosted, the auctioneer could count the times when Immortal Emperor Refined Jades were used with his hands. However, this was his first time seeing someone immediately bidding one hundred of them in an instant.

Amidst the silence, Li Qiye reminded the auctioneer: “If no one else is bidding, then give the three final calls.”

The auctioneer regained his composure and quickly called out: “100 Immortal Emperor Refined Jades, going once!”

Jian Wushuang bit her teeth once and deepened her tone to say: “I bid 105 jades, I can pawn a treasure to provide this amount.”

The person in charge of the Golem Square quickly said: “If Miss Jian didn’t bring any Immortal Emperor Refined Jades, then you can just write it down as credit; there is no need to pawn anything.” He could feel sweat beads dripping down his forehead.

Since Jian Wushuang was the golden daughter of the Jian Clan, the Golem Square allowed her to put it on her credit. An imperial lineage like the Jian Clan wouldn’t renege on a payment.

However, she was obviously not confident this time and didn’t go about doubling the bid like before. She only added five jades this time.

The truth was that five jades were already scary enough; ordinary people simply couldn’t afford this sum.

“200 pieces.” Li Qiye, however, threw out this number nonchalantly without even batting an eye.

This time, the doubling of his previous bid finally caused Bai Weng and Shi Hao to directly kneel on the ground. They wanted to scream out: “Boss, these are Immortal Emperor Refined Jades, they’re not ordinary jades!”

His bid nearly made Jian Wushuang vomit blood from anger as she sharply glared at him. If they weren’t in an auction house right now, she might have already taken care of him.

Li Qiye met her gaze and lazily said: “How high can you go? Just be direct, 1,000 or 10,000?”

His arrogant demeanor enraged her. She had always been arrogant without a care for anyone, but today, Li Qiye had suppressed her pride, so how could she not be furious and burn with an intent to kill?

She sat straight down and didn’t say anything, nor did she bid again. Although she was unbridled with her pride, she was not stupid. She couldn’t handle Li Qiye’s provocation, but she had no choice other than to step down.

Using several hundred or one thousand Immortal Emperor Refined Jades to buy one Alchemy Fowl was too insane. She couldn’t spend this many jades for such a creature. As the golden daughter of the Jian Clan, she had always been pampered by her family. They, indeed, had a lot of Immortal Emperor jades, but it wasn’t to the point where she could lavishly waste them. Despite her arrogance, she still had a sense of propriety.

“200 Immortal Emperor Refined Jades, going once!” The excited and quivering auctioneer shouted.

Many people were silent. Besides ancestors from imperial lineages, very few could afford to pay this amount.

Eventually, the auctioneer slammed his gavel as Li Qiye spent 200 Immortal Emperor Refined Jades for one Alchemy Fowl. The silent buyers had two separate trains of thoughts. Some of them believed that Li Qiye was crazy while others said that he was the most prodigal son in this world…

Bai Weng stuttered as he asked Li Qiye: “Young Master, was this… worth it?”

Li Qiye only smiled, and others didn’t see the nuances in the matter. The others believed that he was being wasteful, but he himself felt that it was completely worth it.

Several other treasures were brought up afterward, but no one bid as crazily as Li Qiye. Jian Wushuang scored two treasures among them.

Li Qiye no longer bid. Although these treasures were not bad, they were not worth him taking action.

“It is my honor to introduce the next treasure, a rock left behind by Immortal Emperor Wan Shi.” 1

After hearing this, one buyer voiced his concern: “I thought the Golem Square was going to place this rock as the last item of the auction?”

The auctioneer answered: “Honored guest, excuse us, but there was a sudden change. The next item will be the featured item, so this rock could only be considered second to last.”

This stirred up the buyers. Prior to this, many honored guests had a list of the items up for auction, but now, there was a sudden change. Such an occurrence was quite rare. This would only happen if this last item had an even more intimidating background!

1. Wan Shi = Mischievous/Stubborn Era Immortal Emperor.
