Cultivation: the Rise of a Live-In Son-In-Law

Chapter 196: Two Hundred Million Silver! Ruxue: Helping Chen Beixuan Reach This Price—Is It Too Much to Seek Connections?


Because the sinister crystal cores' aura fluctuations weren't deliberately suppressed or concealed.

As a result, the moment these cores were taken out of the jade box, their fluctuations filled the entire auction house.

Immediately, countless people's expressions changed as they felt a chill rise in their hearts.

Fortunately, the auction house only let the aura of these sinister crystal cores out for a moment, mainly to showcase their immense energy.

Moments later, they placed them into the spherical cover on the auction stage.

The terrifyingly evil aura vanished, isolated away.

"The next items to be auctioned, as you probably already know, are none other than the rare sinister crystal cores!" Ruxue introduced.

"These cores are produced by entities in the Innate Realm. Besides them, there is also one from the Grandmaster Late Stage! If any of you have the suitable cultivation technique, you mustn't miss out."

Upon hearing this, the auction house was instantly stunned.

The power of the words "Grandmaster Late Stage" goes without saying. Even though Bai Chuan Auction House is a leading one in the Eastern Territory, and East Cang City is their home ground,

The most powerful Martial Arts Grandmaster here doesn't exceed that level!

Now, such a terrifying being that commands the awe of millions has only one solitary crystal core left here?!

Who was capable of slaying it?!

Among them, a few had slight changes in expression; they were practitioners of special cultivation techniques and were very interested in sinister crystal cores.

At this moment, Zi Wuji, the Sect Leader of the Purple Origin Sect, also successfully entered the auction house and walked into a private room.

Looking at the sinister crystal cores on the auction stage, Zi Wuji's eyes were deep, pondering something unknown.

He took out a Communication Jade Token, sent a message, and immediately, a man dressed entirely in black appeared.

"Sect Leader!"

"You should bid for all these crystal cores. They will be useful for me." Zi Wuji said indifferently.

"Yes!" The man in black turned to leave.

On the other side, Red Cloud Fairy, having hurriedly finished healing, also entered the auction house.

She did not join with the members of the Red Cloud Sect but instead secured a low-level private box alone. At this time, her face still looked a bit pale.

She didn't want to meet the Red Cloud Sect disciples in such a state.

"Why has Zi Wuji suddenly become so much stronger than me?" Even now, Red Cloud Fairy was still somewhat puzzled.

In terms of talent, Zi Wuji shouldn't be stronger than her.

Could it be, he had an epiphany?

Watching the ongoing auction of sinister crystal cores, Red Cloud Fairy's eyes also flickered with a hint of shock.

The Grandmaster Late Stage sinister crystal core... was equivalent to her current realm!

To kill such a sinister entity, at least an eighth or ninth layer Grandmaster would be required to achieve it.

"The Heaven and Earth Source Qi in the Eastern Territory is indeed denser, truly a place of hidden dragons and crouching tigers."

Red Cloud Fairy sighed slightly. Such sinister entities, in the entire Northern Territory, besides that old thing from the Myriad Laws Sect who could kill them alone,

Both she and Qingxuanzi needed to rely on treasures to accomplish it.

At this point, as Ruxue announced the start of the auction, intermittent bids began to rise in the hall.

Since it was mentioned that the seller accepted silver, the initial bids were still in silver.

"One million taels!"

"I bid one and a half million!"

"Ha, how embarrassing, ten million!"

The number of bidders was not large, but the rate of increase in bids quickly shot above fifty million.

At this price point, those who could continue bidding had become few and far between.

After all, these items were not universally usable, only valuable to a limited few.

In another box, in the area belonging to the Youluo Sect.

Upon seeing these sinister crystal cores, especially the one at the Grandmaster Late Stage, Youluo, dressed in a black robe, immediately knew it was something her lord husband had provided.

Noticing that the bidding enthusiasm didn't seem very high, her eyes subtly moved, and then a bid was sent out from the box.

"Box thirteen bids seventy million! Is there a higher bid?" Ruxue's eyes lit up immediately.

Although Bai Chuan won't deduct any fee for auctioning something for Lu Ye, thanks to the gifted Diamond Card,

However, the higher the auction goes, the better it is to gain favor from the other party.

In essence, issuing such a Diamond Card was meant to win over Lu Ye and secure his acknowledgment of Bai Chuan Commerce Association.

So, Ruxue was very diligent on stage, guiding the auction to keep heating up.

She naturally knew the tactics of auctioneering, aware that box thirteen was from the Youluo Sect.

But to directly announce a bid from the Youluo Sect would undoubtedly cause some loose cultivators interested in sinister crystal cores to hesitate, possibly giving up the competition.

Therefore, using the box number instead could prevent such situations from occurring.

"Seventy-five million!"

"I bid seventy-six million."

"One hundred million." Just then, in a single low-tier box, a man dressed in black called out in a deep voice.

Instantly, the entire auction hall went silent.

If they were common crystal cores, several Innate Realm and one Grandmaster Late Stage level like this, five hundred million in silver might still see factions competing for them.

But these were rather niche items; around one hundred million was nearly the limit.

Now someone abruptly bid close to the limit, and the few still bidding seemed hesitant.

In the adjacent box, Lu Ye sat calmly, sipping tea.

Even at one hundred million, it was enough, enough for him to conduct another specified draw at the Myriad Dao Pavilion.

In the neighboring box, observing the suddenly quiet auction hall, Youluo contemplated for a moment and continued to slightly increase the bid: "One hundred and ten million."

The people of the Youluo Sect: "..."

Including two Elders from the Youluo Sect, they all stared blankly at their Sect Leader's relentless bidding.

Why is the Sect Leader bidding on these sinister crystal cores?

Too much money burning a hole?

Yet no one dared to speak. The Youluo Sect was established single-handedly by the Sect Leader, who possessed supreme authority... and martial power.

Not to mention squandering, if she chose to disband the sect, it'd be a matter of a single word.

As for Youluo, her thoughts were simpler: within a family, one doesn't speak of a separate entity, so helping her lord husband push the bid higher could only be good.

If it really ends up on her table… buying it doesn't matter!

After all, her lord has been found, and the other task of the Youluo Sect is just to explore other regions in Xuanzhou to locate any possible Celestial Demon Divine Sect's evil demons.

"One hundred and fifty million." In the low-tier box, the man in black frowned slightly.

Recalling the Sect Leader's instruction to secure these, he immediately bumped the bid substantially, aiming to deter others.

This flow of silver, only first-rate and top-tier powers could readily produce.

Second-rate powers couldn't possibly pull out such a large cash flow unless they sold off assets.

Youluo, still unhurried: "One hundred and sixty million."

The man in black frowned deeper, exclaiming: "Two hundred million!"

Beside him, Zi Wuji's eyebrows also furrowed. After all, he's the Sect Leader of the Purple Origin Sect, careful not to handle the sect's funds imprudently.

He immediately pulled out the Communication Jade Token and sent a message, instructing the man in black to cease his actions.

If the bidding increased further, they didn't need to keep up.

Simultaneously, Lu Ye set down his teacup and sent a message to Youluo.

[Stop bidding, it's enough.]

Originally intending to raise the bid once more, Youluo stopped upon seeing the words.

"Two hundred million from the guest in box one hundred thirty-three! Any higher bids?"

"Two hundred million going once, twice, three times… sold! Congratulations to the guest in box one hundred thirty-three!"

Ruxue swiftly struck the small hammer, the smile on her face genuinely coming from within for the first time, extraordinarily sweet, captivating many in the hall to the point of being transfixed.

This time helping Chen Beixuan achieve such a price… Engaging him shouldn't be too much, right?
