Chapter 173: Zi Yue’s Appearance
“It’s the Duanmu clan again!”
Everyone was shocked. At the same time, some people who were blinded by desire instantly woke up.
Yes, that was a powerhouse at the Dragon Transformation Realm. It was impossible for the major forces present to miss it.
At the thought of this, some people gave up on raising the bid and sat down.
While listening to everyone’s bids, Qianqian, who was locked in a cage, was filled with anger on the auction stage.
She bit her red lips tightly. Being locked in a cage and auctioned in public was simply a great humiliation for her.
Unfortunately, although she had the strength now, she could not use it. She could only place her hopes on others…
“Lin clan, 1.2 million!”
When everyone gave up, an indifferent voice sounded from another private room.
“The Lin clan has also made their move. I wonder who will buy this Dragon Transformation Realm cultivator.”
Everyone discussed animatedly. Most of them chose to retreat and not participate in the auction.
Of course, there were still a small number of people who chose to increase the bid, but their strength wasn’t that great.
“I bid 1.25 million!”
“1.27 million!”
“1.3 million!”
“City lord’s manor, 1,500,000!”
The city lord’s manor also made a move. As everyone expected, a Dragon Transformation Realm retainer was still worth this price.
“1,700,000!”
Amidst everyone’s discussion, the Duanmu clan’s first elder’s face was gloomy. The city lord’s manor and the Lin clan’s bid were within his expectations.
However, in this way, it was becoming more and more difficult for him to bid for this Dragon Transformation Realm powerhouse.
“First elder, don’t worry. Our funds are sufficient.”The second elder saw the situation and quickly comforted him.
At this moment, in the private room where the city lord’s manor was located.
City Lord Qin Xiao’s body was trembling. Zi Yue, who was in front of him, had boundless killing intent on her body since the cage was moved to the stage.
If it was not for the fact that there was still a trace of rationality left, she would have rushed up to save Qianqian long ago.
“Lady Zi Yue, calm down. This is Lin City, the Lin clan’s territory,” City Lord Qin Xiao hurriedly advised.
After a long while, Lady Zi Yue finally calmed down and suppressed the anger on her face.
She gritted her silver teeth and said, “Make a bid. You must buy it.”
“Yes!”
Hearing this, City Lord Qin Xiao heaved a sigh of relief and looked at the auction house again.
At this moment, Qianqian’s price had already been raised to three million by the Lin Clan Leader and the Duanmu clan’s first elder.
Moreover, from the looks of it, the two of them even planned to raise the price, as if they would not give up.
“3.5 million! My Duanmu clan wants this Dragon Transformation Real expert for sure.”
In the private room, the Duanmu clan’s first elder’s face was livid as he said angrily.
He did not expect that the Lin family’s funds were also very sufficient. They actually raised the price to over 3,000,000.
And when the price reached 3,500,000, the Lin clan’s side fell into silence. Clearly, they were also considering the gains and losses.
A Dragon Transformation Realm expert was good, so the Duanmu clan had a determined appearance. If they wanted to bid for it, they would have to pay a huge price. This caused the Lin Clan Leader to be a little hesitant.
At this moment, Miao Qing, who was on the auction stage, saw the silence of the Lin clan. He waited for a while and then shouted.
“The Duanmu clan offers 3.5 million. Is there any higher price?”
“3.5 million going once!”
“3.5 million going twice!”
“3.5 million three…”
“Wait, the city lord’s manor, 4 million!”
Just as Miao Qing was about to land his third hammer, the city lord’s manor called out the price again.
The face of the first elder of the Duanmu clan, who had just revealed a smile, instantly collapsed.
He tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart and said coldly, “The city lord’s manor is really rich and overbearing. They spent four million directly.”
Hearing that, Qin Xiao did not stand on ceremony and retorted on the spot, “In comparison, the Duanmu clan is even more rich and overbearing.”
“I bid 4.1 million.”
Duanmu Cheng made another bid, unwilling to give up on this Dragon Transformation Realm powerhouse.
At the same time, City Lord Qin Xiao also made a bid. Moreover, he made a one-time bid of 5.5 million, shocking the entire venue.
This scene also shocked Miao Qing on the auction stage. He did not expect the price to be raised to this extent.
“It’s finally here.”
At this moment, Lin Mo, who was sitting behind the scenes, smiled. City Lord Qin Xiao had suddenly made such a generous move. It seemed like he had received an order.
At this stage of the auction, it was already nearing the end. Zi Yue had already been lured out, but he did not know what the other party would do next.
“5,500,000 three times, sold. Congratulations to the city lord’s manor for successfully bidding for the last item.”
Under the competition between the city lord’s manor and the Duanmu clan, the final bid was raised to 5,500,000 by City Lord Qin Xiao.
The sudden increase in the city lord’s funds was an eye-opener for everyone.
Along with the successful auction this time, Lin Mo also received a system notification.
[ Tier 2 Dragon Transformation Realm maid auctioned successfully. ]
[ Congratulations to host for triggering 7,000 times the rebate. ]
[ Obtained Tier 15 Dragon Transformation Realm puppet. It’s able to evolve by devouring materials. ]
Hearing the introduction of the system, Lin Mo quickly check the role of this puppet, the face on his face became even wider.
“A puppet at tier 15 would be a good help.”
Lin Mo is very surprised. He did not expect to get a puppet in return after auctioning a cultivator.
In this way, he would have more cards to play. Even if Zi Yue’s hand has more powerful, he was not afraid.
…
“B*stard!”
At this moment, in the Duanmu clan’s private room, First Elder Duanmu Cheng was extremely furious. With a slap, he smashed the golden wood table and chair in front of him into pieces.
Beside him, the second Eelder’s face was ashen, but he did not dare to say anything.
“What should we do? What should we do about the experiment?”
Duanmu Cheng almost roared out loud. He had brought so much money, but in the end, he was caught unprepared by the city lord’s manor.
“First elder, there’s nothing we can do. The experiment can only be put on hold for now…” the second elder said bitterly.
On the other side, the atmosphere in the private room where the city lord’s manor was located was also stiff.
Lady Zi Yue was expressionless. Behind her, City Lord Qin Xiao did not dare to say anything and just stood there.
“Let’s go and pick up Qianqian.”
After a long while, Lady Zi Yue finally opened her mouth and said something.
The few of them left the private room and went to look for Miao Qing to ask for the proceeds from the auction.
After handing over the spiritual stones, Lady Zi Yue released Qianqian. The latter’s face was still filled with anger.
Even when facing Zi Yue, she still pursed her red lips tightly and didn’t say anything.
“Senior, are you alright?” It was City Lord Qin Xiao who was startled. He thought that Qianqian had been tampered with by Lin Mo.
However, this kind of greeting also made Qianqian feel ashamed. She glared fiercely at Qin Xiao and looked at Lady Zi Yue.
“His strength is at least at tier 5 Dragon Transformation Realm…”
His strength far surpassed hers, which was also an important reason why she was captured.
“Leave it to me,” Lady Zi Yue said as she looked up at Miao Qing who was receiving guests.
“Is there a matter with this guest?” Miao Qing asked with a smile.
“I want to meet your manager. I wonder if you can introduce me?” Lady Zi Yue said slowly, planning to meet this Lin Mo again.
“You want to meet the Young Master?”
Miao Qing was stunned. Just as he was about to say something, he heard a chuckle from behind.
“Why are you looking for me?”
