93 Blazing Heart Meridian! (2/2)

Crazy! Fatty Tang must have been out of his mind!

Jun Mo Xie twisted his neck and walked out. Though he still appeared sickly, he seemed extremely domineering. Opening the curtain, his foot landed outside with a loud slam! With a swift motion, he took off his hat and unbuttoned his long flowing robes. Glaring at Li Zhen with vicious narrow eyes, he thundered, ”Li Zhen, you imbecile rascal! Are you seeking death?”

”Who are you to say this? This is an auction house! If you can bid a price, why can’t I? Come bite me if you dare!” Li Zhen retorted angrily before jumping out of his box with a sinister look on his face.

”Who am I? Bah!” Jun Mo Xie glared at him as if spotting a black sheep among the herd. With twisted eyes and lips, he continued, ”As if you can churn up an additional 3,000,000 taels of silver with the pocket you just emptied during your previous bid! Li Zhen, I am not trying to belittle you, but can you please show us your 3,000,000 right now? As long as you can prove that you have this amount of money, this strand of grass will be yours! If you cannot bring out that amount, then I’d like to ask, what is it that you two have against Fatty Tang that you have to consistently make things difficult for him? Do Tang Yuan and you have any grudges? Or do you have something against Grandfather Tang?”

Opposite, Dugu Xiaoyi let out a faint chuckle before saying, ”This rascal is really annoying! How could he call this precious Blazing Heart Meridian a strand of grass? Such an ignorant man...”

Beside her, Princess Ling Meng gave Dugu Xiaoyi a surprised look and felt her forehead, ”Is sister having a fever? A moment ago she had a look of worry. Why did her attitude change suddenly?”

Recently, the Dugu Family had been facing troubles because of Dugu Xiaoyi. This young lady had changed drastically all of a sudden. She used to have an extremely cheerful and lively demeanor but her positivity inexplicably disappeared. She would break into tears for no apparent reason and sit in a daze for hours. She skipped meals frequently as well. This made General Dugu Wudi extremely heartbroken. He and his wives had tried asking her about her problems but to no avail. He could only watch his precious and beloved daughter grow thinner with each passing day. General Dugu could not do anything to help her. Whenever he was exasperated, he would vent his frustration by hitting his sons and nephews!

Fortunately, her condition improved slightly after Lady Dugu requested Princess Ling Meng to accompany Dugu Xiaoyi. Recently, Lady Dugu received the newsletter from the Magnificent Jewel Hall about the auction and immediately urged these two to attend the event and catch some fresh air. However, Dugu Xiaoyi was extremely reluctant. But who would have known her sickly appearance had instantly vanished after going to the Magnificent Jewel Hall? This was absolutely bewildering! Could there be some kind of divine healing medicine within the Magnificent Jewel Hall itself?

Li Zhen and his company looked at one another. The few of them combined could hardly produce 100,000 taels of silver, not to mention 3,000,000. His face turned sour as the harsh reality struck him.

”A bunch of penniless souls! I really cannot be bothered with you!” Jun Mo Xie snorted in disdain before patting his backside and mocked, ”Even my fart is worthed more than the words you said. What tricks can you play with no money in your pockets?”

In an extremely arrogant manner, Jun Mo Xie turned towards the crowd with an ignorant look and asked, ”Who else wants this herb? You are all welcome to bid, come on!” Then with a snap of his fingers, he added, ”It will only cost several million taels of silver.”

The people in the hall all turned away and pretended that they heard nothing. ”Spending millions to buy a herb? No way! It’s not as though this herb can revive the dead! Who in the right mind would do such a stupid thing?”

All of a sudden, two huge clouds of spiritual pressure descended upon Jun Mo Xie from an unknown location. Jun Mo Xie’s face turned white and he quickly reacted to the situation. He started to shiver a little before shouting in his mind, ”What a terrible weather today, why is it so cold?” The spiritual pressure scanned him thoroughly once more and without finding anything amiss, they disappeared as quickly as they appeared.

Jun Mo Xie chuckled silently, ”If you managed to dig out anything from me so easily with that poor trick, then I won’t be here today.”
