Chapter 1172 Being Fooled By Ricky (1/2)
A sudden silence fell over the room as soon as the words fell from Ricky's mouth.
All eyes swiveled toward Ricky's private box, and some warriors even rubbed their ears to make sure that they didn't hear it wrong.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and no one dared to make a sound.
Meanwhile, Edie and the Thousand-hand Emperor were staying in one of the castle's secret rooms. They, too, were astounded and intrigued to hear Ricky's price.
”Edie, your friend is too impractical. If he fails to provide that much cultivation resources later, he will be...”
The Thousand-hand Emperor cut off his words with a sigh. Of course, he knew that Ricky was playing tricks on the Flame Valley, but he was afraid that Ricky was acting too impulsively. There was no way Ricky could provide them with that large amount of cultivation resources after all.
”Do you think he doesn't have that large amount of cultivation resources?” Honestly, Edie was not only asking the Thousand-hand Emperor, but he was also asking this to himself.
”Do you really think he can give us that many cultivation resources? The number of cultivation resources he mentioned can only be provided by a top force at the Emperor Level!” the Thousand-hand Emperor answered heatedly. ”If possible, I think we should persuade him not to add too much. Another fifty to six zones of cultivation resources will be enough. If he adds more, the Flame Valley may stop to compete,” he added.
”Perhaps, he does not have that many cultivation resources, but I believe that he has some things that are priceless,” Edie muttered mysteriously, so quietly that the other man could not hear him.
Meanwhile, back at the auction hall, the tense silence had finally been broken.
The spectators seemed to have recovered, and they turned to each other asking,
”Do you think that voice belongs to that white-haired young man?”
”Yes, he must be doing this for revenge! He is trying to raise the price so that the Flame Valley will have to offer more cultivation resources.”
”That's for sure! This kid has balls of steel. Isn't he afraid that the Flame Valley will give up on the bid?”
”Maybe he is that brave, or maybe he has the cultivation resources to pay for it...”
The happiest ones at this moment were the two great forces, the Moon Dragon Palace and the Star Tiger Palace. They did not want to offend the Flame Valley, but if there was someone who offended the Flame Valley, they would be very willing to see that.
