Free Web NovelChapter 1279: Chapter 1275: Free Bidding
The Dragon Spirit’s face changed drastically upon hearing this. He had never imagined that Yun Ran’s broken Life Chart could have such a significant impact.
"Does my master know about this? Does he have any solutions!"
In the Dragon Spirit’s mind, the Junior Master’s abilities far exceeded his understanding.
If he knew that broken Life Chart would slowly deplete Yun Ran, he would definitely have a solution, right...
The Dragon Spirit’s eyes reflected a hint of urgency, as if he was hoping to get a definite answer from Yun Ran.
But he was disappointed. Yun Ran shook her head, yet her expression remained calm, as if she were not the one in trouble.
"No matter how strong the Junior Master is, he cannot defy the Heavenly Dao’s intentions."
The compelling plot, to some extent, was equivalent to the Heavenly Dao, and as long as her Life Chart remained unbroken, the Heavenly Dao’s malice towards her would not dissipate.
The Dragon Spirit seemed somewhat unable to accept this, his entire demeanor crumbling: "How can this be!"
Yun Ran had never been wrong in divining this path of the future, and the Dragon Spirit did not doubt Yun Ran was exaggerating.
"Now, are you still going to stop me?"
The Dragon Spirit dejectedly sat back down; if he couldn’t find the whereabouts of the Heavenly Book, it would be over.
But now, with the clue to the Heavenly Book right in front of him, if he feared the consequences of changing predetermined history and gave up this opportunity...
Taking a deep breath, the Dragon Spirit suddenly slammed the table, his face showing a hint of fierceness: "Bid! We’ll bid even if it bankrupts us, isn’t it just dealing with consequences.
What’s to be afraid of? I’ve lived for thousands of years as a Dragon Spirit and absorbed several other Dragon Spirits’ Dragon Cores.
No matter the cost, if we join forces, are we afraid we can’t withstand it!"
If it wasn’t about Yun Ran’s life, the Dragon Spirit would never compromise.
The worst-case scenario would be getting struck by heavenly punishment; what hammer is there to fear!
Being a naturally born Life, even if he’s scattered, as long as there’s a thread of Dragon Core remaining, in a few thousand years, he can cultivate again.
The Dragon Spirit took a deep breath; fortunately, he was smart. Before deciding to follow Yun Ran to the space rift, he had prepared himself not to return.
So he had already extracted part of his Dragon Core and let that subordinate sea turtle guard it.
If he really ceases to exist, that subordinate will return to the sea and bring his Dragon Core back.
People on this side of the building finally unified their stance, taking no more than three minutes.
Chi Yao glanced at Yun Ran, his peripheral vision scanning over the Dragon Spirit, understanding why this time Yun Ran had such a variable with her. freēwēbnovel.com
This Dragon Spirit seemed strong, yet in reality, he was led by Yun Ran the whole time, showing high loyalty.
It seemed that this time Yun Ran shouldn’t fail again.
Most people downstairs in the auction room finally realized what the token from Divine Sword Manor meant.
It is said that since the founding of Divine Sword Manor, ten tokens were made and secretly given to ten special forces.
Those who hold this token can enjoy custom services exclusive to Divine Sword Manor and priority bidding on special auction items.
Only when all token holders have given up are others eligible to bid on those special items.
In fact, since the token came into existence, special auction items have been pitifully few.
Until now, Divine Sword Manor, hundreds of years old, has only had two special auction items, and today marks the third.
No wonder most people were unaware of the rule that auction items only token holders can bid on.
"My goodness, coming to Divine Sword Manor this time, we’re learning a lot, only the third time in hundreds of years!"
"I just heard someone say that during the previous appearances of the special auction items, quite a few people died or got injured, including several formidable forces that were wiped out at that time."
"According to this, will this special auction item also cause a disturbance?"
"Isn’t that obvious? These items are likely highly useful to those large forces; who wouldn’t want them?"
"Originally, I was planning to leave right after the auction ended, but now it seems I might stay a few more days to avoid getting caught up." freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
...
There wasn’t a fool here; even the spoiled youth following the elders stayed put.
They sat obediently, doing whatever the elders instructed, scared of causing trouble with a single misstep.
Even those who had been shouting aggressively were now calm.
One by one, none dared mention the special auction item, adapting completely to the role of sensible spectators.
The man on stage was very satisfied with this scene.
They had people blend with the guests just to leak the information about the previous two special auction items at Divine Sword Manor.
The goal was to warn these people that those special auction items weren’t something they could meddle with.
At the same time, to avert certain risks, these people were, after all, invited guests.
Divine Sword Manor couldn’t just watch these people court disaster, as that would reflect poorly on them.
The man on stage quickly scanned his companions in the crowd, receiving a signal.
That’s the Young Master indicating that all preparations are complete, and it’s time for the next step.
"Ladies and gentlemen, now we’d like to invite the token-holding guests to start bidding; there’s no minimum price, no upper limit on bidding, and no restrictions on gold, silver, treasure, Heavenly Materials or Earthly Treasures or Magic Artifacts."
Upon hearing this, those who had calmed down went restless again.
They had never heard of such a bidding process; totally free bidding.
But no one thought anyone could profit from this bidding method.
"I wonder what price the first bidder will open with?"
Everyone waited quietly for the first bid; the anticipation was high.
"One million taels, plus the contract for the world’s largest building, as well as ownership of a copper mine and an iron mine."
A steady middle-aged man’s voice came from one of the private rooms.
Even those prepared couldn’t help but gasp at these conditions.
These things are enough for a medium family to take off.
And now, they are only being used to bid on an item that seems more likely to be a fake.
