Bai Xiashuang suddenly showed up at the auction house without making a sound. Now she made a bid when the Fire Fairy Lucid Ganoderma and Netherworld Roots were being auctioned?
Lu Li instinctively felt something was wrong. Bai Xiashuang must have shown up to target him, to mess up his business.
Many people stared at the first private room. Private room No. 1 had always been reserved for the Bai Family. Many people had figured out Bai Xiashuang's identity.
Some young people looked at the curtains of the private room with passion, as if they wanted to see the beauty of the pearl of the Thousand-island Lake through the curtains.
It was quiet for three seconds. Then there was some noise, but … nobody made a bid. Lu Li's heart was weighed down.
It was obvious!
Nobody dared to offend the pearl of the Thousand-island Lake. Who dared to raise the price when the Bai Family made a bid?
Wouldn't that be going against the Bai Family?
Going against the Bai Family at the Thousand-island Lake was courting death.
Yun Ji was surprised. She didn't understand why Bai Xiashuang wanted this.
What could the Bai Family not have?
Even if they wanted to buy it, Bai Xiashuang didn't have to come out and auction it herself.
Yun Ji reacted quickly. After a while, seeing that nobody made a bid, she said with a smile, "Okay, the man in private room No. 1 has made a bid of 600,000 Xuan Crystals?
Is there a higher bid?
600,000 going once, 600,000 going twice … "
Lu Li was burning with anger. 600,000 was the base price. This thing could be sold for more than a million at the Shun Feng City. The price here would not be lower.
He didn't expect this. The base price couldn't be set at one million. If Bai Xiashuang bought it for 600,000, then it would be a great loss.
The thing was, he couldn't stand it!
Lu Li guessed that Bai Xiashuang had something to do with Patriarch Seven's million Xuan Crystals. Now she was here to make trouble?
Lu Li thought about it, raised his hand and shouted, "One million!"
He changed his voice. He purposely made it hoarse and deep. He was wearing the Ghost Mask. Only warriors of the Noble Lord Realm could tell his appearance and realm.
If so, what was he afraid of?
The Bai Family couldn't have captured him at the Heaven Prison City, could they?
He had already offended Bai Xiashuang. He also offended Madam Yan at the auction house. He didn't mind offending her one more time. This was his character.
"What ~"
There was an uproar. Many people turned to look at him. What they saw was a hideous mask.
Many people tried to sense Lu Li's qi and energy but they couldn't.
At that moment, Lu Li felt like there were four or five breezes brushing past him. He knew that this was the psychic power Liu Yi mentioned. There were powerful warriors of the Eternal Realm checking on him.
The scene suddenly became lively. Someone actually dared to challenge Bai Xiashuang?
It was no longer important whether or not a rare treasure would appear in today's auction. This matter was even more exciting than the appearance of a rare treasure.
Yun Ji looked over to Lu Li and was surprised again. She looked at a middle-aged man in a black robe sitting in the corner of the first row. The latter nodded.
Yun Ji immediately revealed a smile and said, "Very good. A rich customer offered one million Xuan Crystals. Are there any higher bids?
If there isn't, then this top-grade Fire Immortal Ganoderma and Netherworld Root will belong to this Lord. "
There was dead silence. Everyone looked at the first private room, waiting for Bai Xiashuang's counterattack.
The Bai Family had been provoked, so it was impossible for them not to regain their face. Otherwise, the Bai Family's reputation would be affected.
"Two million!"
Bai Xiashuang's voice was heard very soon. She raised the price by one million, which made many people gasp.
The Bai Family was really awesome. The pearl of the Thousand-island Lake was like a tiger, which made many men blush with shame.
"Okay!"
Lu Li was secretly happy. He thought to himself that it was the right decision to wear the Ghost Mask and sit down here. Otherwise, people would have figured out his identity in his private room, which would make it hard for him to raise the price.
Seeing many people were looking at him, Lu Li was addicted to shouting. He shouted again, "Three million!"
"…"
This time, there was no uproar. Instead, many people looked solemn. They felt things were getting serious.
The mysterious man with the mask raised the price by one million in one breath. Clearly, he was targeting Bai Xiashuang.
This man must have an extraordinary background since he dared to target Bai Xiashuang at the Thousand-island Lake. Something big could happen tonight.
Even though the efficacy of the Fire Immortal Ganoderma and the Netherworld Roots had been enhanced, they were not top-grade elixirs. Two million Xuan Crystals was already too much.
Now that he had raised the price to three million, it was clear what he meant. He was trying to humiliate the Bai Family on purpose.
There was silence. Everyone was waiting for the counterattack of the Bai Family and the rage of Bai Xiashuang.
Bai Xiashuang's counterattack came quickly, but she didn't make another bid. Instead, she said, "I suspect that this man is raising the price randomly. He doesn't have so many Xuan Crystals with him. Please, Chief Steward of the auction house, go and verify it."
Not everyone could afford three million Xuan Crystals. If Lu Li could afford so many Xuan Crystals so easily, he wouldn't be sitting down here. The auction house would have arranged a private room for him.
Disciples of Big Families outside could not come into the Thousand-island Lake alone. If they came with powerful warriors, they would have been discovered a long time ago.
Which Big Family of the Thousand-island Lake dared to argue with Bai Xiashuang?
That was why Bai Xiashuang said so.
After everyone heard this, they also felt that it was very reasonable. They were afraid that they had encountered a madman who was randomly raising the price.
The auction house must verify it when a guest raised such a question.
If Lu Li was sitting in a private room, the auction house would know his identity and financial resources. There would be no need for verification.
Yun Ji looked at the black-robed man in the corner of the first row. The latter nodded. Yun Ji had to call a Chief Steward over and walk towards Lu Li.
"I am Zhan Yang. Honorable guest, nice to meet you!"
A Chief Steward walked to Lu Li and said with a smile, "Because a guest has doubts, please show us your proof.
As long as you can prove that you have three million Xuan Crystals, the bidding will still be valid. "
"Proof?"
Lu Li was dumbfounded. How could he have three million Xuan Crystals?
He did have some treasures worth three million, such as the Heaven Serpent Fruit and the Cyan Phoenix Pellet. But could he get those things out?
Lu Li said in a low voice after a moment of silence, "I cannot prove it. I will not make a bid this time."
Chief Steward Zhan Yang's expression darkened. He said in a cold voice, "Honorable guest, do you not know the rules of our auction house, or are you here to make trouble?
Making a bid without Xuan Crystals is a provocation to the Heaven Punishing Auction House. "
"Sorry."
It was Lu Li's first time at an auction. He was just here to broaden his horizons and see how many of his things could be sold.
He didn't intend to make a bid. He said with a bitter smile, "It is my first time at an auction. Lord, what do you say?"
"We have two ways to deal with you making trouble at the auction house."
Chief Steward Zhan Yang said in a business-like manner, "The first is to pay 100,000 Xuan Crystals. The second is to be carried out."
Lu Li nodded and said, "I will pay 100,000 Xuan Crystals. Zhan Xing knows who I am. This is the token he gave me.
I am sorry, I really don't know the rules. "
Lu Li thought that if he didn't make a bid, then Bai Xiashuang would have to spend two million to buy the Fire Fairy Lucid Ganoderma and the Netherworld Roots. 100,000 Xuan Crystals was not a big deal.
The power of the auction house was huge. If Lu Li offended them, they might really have to be carried out.
Zhan Yang took over Lu Li's jade talisman and nodded after a few glances. He walked to the middle-aged man in the first row and said something to him. That man made a gesture to Yun Ji.
Yun Ji understood. She bowed to private room No. 1 apologetically and said, "Honorable guest in private room No. 1, we have made a thorough investigation.
The guest who made a bid really did not have the ability to make a bid of three million Xuan Crystals. We have dealt with this matter and punished the guest severely.
Now, I declare that the bid made by that guest is invalid. The Fire Fairy Lucid Ganoderma and the Netherworld Roots belong to private room No. 1. The price is 600,000 Xuan Crystals. "
The crowd was in an uproar. Many people looked at Lu Li as if he was an idiot.
