Sure enough!

After Lu Li made the offer, the smile on Yun Ji’s face froze. The man sitting in the corner of the front row looked angry. As for Zhan Yang, the Chief Steward managing the on-site order, his expression was even more awful.

Shameless of him!

If it were not for the fact that Lu Li had sold some elixirs here, Zhan Yang might have already asked his men to take Lu Li down.

Zhan Yang walked fast over to Lu Li, suppressing down his anger with great effort. He said in a cold voice, “Young Master Lu, please show some respect, okay?”

He stressed “okay” to show his rage. Lu Li said nothing. He quietly put down his hand and secretly took off his ring and handed it over, “Do you think the stuff in here can be worth three million Xuan Crystals?”

Zhan Yang was startled. He took over the ring and poured his Xuan Energy in. Then, surprise showed in his eyes. He nodded and said, “Yes, they are worth 10 million.”

Lu Li took the ring back and said, “Then I will use this as collateral. If I don’t have enough Xuan Crystals, I will leave it to you and you can sell it. What do you think?”

“No problem!”

Zhan Yang looked happier. He walked over to the front and whispered something to the middle-aged man sitting in the front row. The middle-aged man gestured to Yun Ji at once.

Yun Ji was somewhat confused. After a pause, she said, “That honorable guest just now took out a rare treasure. We have evaluated it. His thing is worth three million. This offer is valid!”

“Um…”

Many people were stunned. They had thought that Lu Li the fool would be beaten up and carried out. They didn’t expect that it would turn out like this. Lu Li had something that was worth three million Xuan Crystals?

But…

If he had such thing, why didn’t he take it out just now? Could it be that he just made a random offer? Was he just trying to provoke Bai Xiashuang? So was the blood what he really wanted to buy now?

Many people were pondering this thing over since Lu Li increased the price by two million at one go. Could it be that this Origin Blood Essence was really some rare treasure? Or, maybe there was something wrong with Lu Li’s mind?

Yun Ji paused for a bit and continued, “Three million, are there any higher offers? If not, the Origin Blood Essence is that guest’s.”

“Three and half million!”

That young man in the private room that just made the offer proposed again. Obviously, he was interested in the Origin Blood Essence.

Lu Li didn’t hesitate. He had determined that he would do anything to take it so he made an offer, “Five million!”

“Hiss, hiss~”

People were gasping again. Lu Li rose the price by 1.5 million. The price was already unusually high. Was it worth it to buy a drip of Origin Blood Essence of uncertain rank or effect?

That private room made the offer didn’t say anything, so didn’t Yun Ji. She was suggested that Lu Li had the ability to afford the five million Xuan Crystals.

After the time for a few breaths, there was still nothing from that private room. As such, that Young Master must have been ready to give it up since he didn’t think it was worthwhile.

Lu Li exhaled. As long as he could get the Origin Blood Essence, he was okay to sell the Interspatial Ring. He had quite a fuzzy idea when it came to Xuan Crystals. He could relinquish everything to get the Origin Blood Essence.

Patriarch Lu upstairs was freaked out. He didn’t recognize it was Lu Li at first. Now that he had a closer look, he realized that that man was wearing identical robes to Lu Li, and the figures were similar as well. When he saw the black iron ring, Patriarch Lu was sure that it was Lu Li.

How could Lu Li have five million Xuan Crystals? Why did Lu Li want to buy this Origin Blood Essence? Patriarch Lu did not know. He looked to Hunchback Tian who indifferently said, “Don’t ask and leave it alone. We will leave after the auction.”

“Five million!”

Yun Ji’s pleasant voice came out again. “That is the highest price we see today. Are there any higher offers? Five million first, five million second, five million…”

“Five million and 100,000.”

Right at that moment, a refreshing girl’s voice came up. Many people looked over to where the sound came from with surprise. Soon, they put on mocking expressions.

There would be a good drama to enjoy today. It was Bai Xiashuang who made the offer.

Bai Xiashuang only raised the price by 100,000 Xuan Crystals. Her intentions clearly were to drive up the price, to mess up Lu Li’s mind and to rip him off.

Lu Li had provoked her and shamed her. As one of the brightest pearls of the Thousand-island Lake, she would not be Bai Xiashuang if she didn’t do anything.

“Fu*k!”

Secretly, Lu Li felt indignant but there was nothing he could do. The name Bai Xiashuang itself would be worth god knew how many Xuan Crystals. Nobody could stop her if she wished to make an offer.

Lu Li forced himself to calm down. He could not challenge Bai Xiashuang when he was angry, otherwise, the price might be lifted to above 10 million.

He paused for a moment. Right as Yun Ji was about to say something, Lu Li opened his mouth, “Five million and 200,000.”

He would do as Bai Xiashuang did, adding 100,000 Xuan Crystals!

Anyways, only 100,000 a time wouldn’t cause Bai Xiashuang to react too violently. Maybe when the price was high enough, she would quit.

However…

Bai Xiashuang’s next offer frenzied Lu Li. She shouted in a delicate voice, “Eight million!”

“Crazy woman, this crazy woman. If she ever gets into my hands I will show her what pain is like.”

Lu Li clenched his teeth, yet he didn’t follow the offer. He lowered his head instead, seemingly to be in a pickle. It was as if he could not afford any higher prices.

So many people focused on Lu Li. Several psychic power scanned over Lu Li. He had intrigued everyone present here. If he could add more, his identity would be doubted by many people. After all, anyone that could afford more than eight million must come from at least a Fourth-rank force.

“Okay, private room No. 1 made an offer of eight million Xuan Crystals. That is the highest price in three months. Are there any more offers? Eight million first, eight million second…”

When Yun Ji said in her pretty voice, Lu Li finally lifted up his head. He said with his teeth clenched, “Wait, I will follow that with another 100,000.”

“Wow~”

Everyone was seethed with excitement, even the people in the private rooms upstairs. It was quite a show tonight. There was a guy daring to compete with a Young Lady of the Bai Family? After tonight, the information of the whole incident would spread across the entire Thousand-island Lake, perhaps?

Lu Li seemed to feel the matter troublesome. It seemed to be his highest offer. Countless people diverted their looks to private room No. 1. Lu Li grinded his teeth and shouted in a deep voice after a moment, “If Lady Bai wishes to counter-bid, I have to give up then…”

Lu Li’s implications were clear. If Bai Xiashuang wanted to make another offer, she could have the Origin Blood Essence. If she brought back an Origin Blood Essence that had uncertain properties and rank with more than eight million, wouldn’t she be scolded?

Bai Xiashuang seemed to be pushed into a dilemma. She didn’t say anything for a while. Lu Li’s heart was in his mouth. He was even hyperventilating.

After a while, Yun Ji started asking again. She was ready to seal the deal if nobody else added to the price. Just as Yun Ji was ready to say third, two words floated out of the private room No. 1 gently, “Ten million!”

“Damn, damn, damn!”

Lu Li stood up suddenly. He could not conceal his wrath any more. Bai Xiashuang was over the line. She was playing a bloody trick with him.

He didn’t want to restrain himself anymore. He was driven mad. He shouted in violent rage, “Twenty million, Bai Xiashuang, why don’t you raise the price if you have guts?”

Everyone was speechless…

Status: Ongoing Type: Author: , Released: 2016 Native Language: Chinese
On the Great Land of China, forces clashed for the sake of supremacy and Bloodline Warriors ran amok; the conflict of the strong threatened to shatter heaven and earth. A young man named Lu Li—nothing more than a humble Coffin Carrier from the Northern Desert—came along with Lu Ling, his sister. The two were regarded as puny insects and bullied, but little did people know that Lu Li had the strongest Bloodline of them all in him. He mounted the most handsome of horses and drank the strongest of wines; He bedded the most beautiful of ladies and murdered the most hated of people; He told a huge lie and carried with him an ill-reputation undeserved; He traveled all by his lonesome and danced with devils; He had given his word that he would come back, that he would be strong. And it was because of this that she was still waiting in the city—alone.
