Chapter 101: Chapter 101: Two Hundred Million

As Su Han spoke, the entire auction hall once again fell into silence.

If everyone had initially thought Su Han to be arrogant, then at this moment, many regarded him as foolish.

The Blood Demon Sect was quite powerful overall. If they recruited enough disciples, they could rival those longstanding Ninth-Rate Sects.

Furthermore, with the Sect of True Martial Arts serving as a towering tree of support, ranking among the top hundred in the numerous Eighth-Rate Sects and rumored to be preparing to take over a Seventh-Rate Sect, their foundation was incomparably stronger than that of a newly-promoted Eighth-Rate Sect like the Cold Cloud Sect.

Who would believe that Su Han was from a Seventh-Rate Sect?

After all, this auction was merely a Chief Pavilion of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion in Yuanshan County, and it was good enough to attract Eighth-Rate Sects. Seventh-Rate Sects simply scorned attending such auctions.

Yet it was such a person who claimed he would annihilate the Blood Demon Sect. If that wasn’t foolishness, what was?

“Hahaha…”

From the private room of the Blood Demon Sect, laughter erupted, as if hearing the biggest joke in the world.

“The Blood Demon Sect prides itself on not having offended anyone since its establishment. Even if we have offended someone, we have the power to face any challenges from sects below the Eighth-Rate. Your Excellency speaks of annihilating the Blood Demon Sect; isn’t that a bit too arrogant?”

“Think whatever you like,”

Su Han said indifferently, “This is an auction, not a time for arguments with you. If you want to bid, bid; if not, roll out and do not waste my time.”

“Fine, I will remember your words. In one more month, the Blood Demon Sect will officially announce its establishment, and then we’ll be waiting for you to come and annihilate us!”

With a cold snort, the voice continued, “At the price of 41 million, I won’t compete with you for the Flower of the Demon Spirit anymore. Take it.”

Su Han paid him no further attention.

Truth be told, there was no deep-seated hatred between Su Han and the Blood Demon Sect, but the sect was too arrogant. When they were in the Demon Beast Mountain Range, they tried to annihilate Su Han and his party over a trivial disagreement. After establishing his sect, Su Han also needed to make an example out of someone to establish his might, and the Blood Demon Sect was undoubtedly the best target.

As expected, no one continued to bid after him, and the price of 41 million was indeed not low. The Flower of the Demon Spirit ultimately went to Su Han.

Soon, someone delivered the Flower of the Demon Spirit to Su Han, who then paid the gold coins.

As time passed, more auction items were sold, and the prices were generally much higher than they usually sold for.

The auction was fast approaching its end.

And this was the time everyone was most looking forward to, because the prestigious items were typically presented at the very end.

The Myriad Treasures Pavilion did not disappoint the crowd, and a jade bottle appeared on the projection screen.

“Inside this jade bottle is a full bottle of beast blood, sufficient for ten individuals at the Dragon Vein Realm. The level of this beast blood comes from a Fourth Order Peak Demonic Beast, the Golden-Eyed Demon Flower.”

As Yun Qianqian introduced it, a thunderous commotion erupted throughout the auction hall.

“Fourth Order Beast Blood? And a whole bottle of it?”

“Worthy of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, bringing such a treasure to auction.”

“To obtain such a bottle of beast blood, you’d have to kill at least ten Golden-Eyed Demon Flowers, which even someone at the Dragon Pill Realm would probably not be capable of doing.”

Fourth Order Beast Blood was extremely precious to a place like Yuanshan County, or rather, the small areas surrounding it.

Within a million miles, there were only some Ninth-Rate Sects, the strongest being the Cold Cloud Sect, which had just been promoted to Eighth-Rate.

And in the Ninth-Rate Sects, only the Sect Master was at the Dragon God Realm.

In other words, only these sect masters had the capability to obtain the beast blood of the Golden-Eyed Demon Flower.

But as a Sect Master, one’s days were incredibly busy, and there wasn’t even enough time for cultivation, let alone personally obtaining beast blood.

And below the Dragon God Realm, very few could overcome the Golden-Eyed Demon Flower, as it was a Fourth Order Peak Demonic Beast with tricky methods, hard to anticipate and defend against. Even an early stage Dragon God practitioner could struggle against it for a while.

So, this bottle full of Golden-Eyed Demon Flower Beast Blood is extremely precious, at least within a radius of a million miles, and possibly even several million miles.

“Starting bid is 30 million Gold Coins, with each increment no less than 1 million Gold Coins.”

Yun Qianqian swept her gaze over those present, seemingly having anticipated this scene, smiled satisfactorily before announcing the price.

“That’s so expensive…”

“Tsk tsk, the starting bid is already 30 million Gold Coins, it’s bound to double at least, where is all that money coming from?”

“Hurry back and get someone to transfer money, we must obtain this Golden-Eyed Demon Flower’s Beast Blood!”

Clearly, the price of 30 million made many people balk.

But most were red-eyed with desire because, compared to nurturing a genius from the younger generation, 30 million really wasn’t much.

Besides, this bottle of Beast Blood was enough for ten people to use. If luck defied the heavens, it needn’t breed ten talents, even cultivating two or three would be massively profitable.

“50 million!”

Someone in the private room of the Blood Demon Sect called out immediately, their voice rough and, having just had that icy exchange with Su Han, many recognized them.

“The Blood Demon Sect again? Aren’t they being too generous?”

“People say a newly-established Sect lacks deep roots, but I think the Blood Demon Sect’s resources seem extremely strong.”

Hearing the Blood Demon Sect’s bid of 50 million, many people were inwardly clicking their tongues in wonder.

The Blood Demon Sect’s intention was clear— they were dead set on the Beast Blood, so those who had considered bidding but did not want to offend the Blood Demon Sect immediately shut their mouths.

“Beast Blood is indeed most useful for a Sect, my Flowing Snow Sect will also join the competition, 60 million.”

Someone in the private room of the Flowing Snow Sect raised the bid to 60 million.

The deterrent power of the Flowing Snow Sect was obviously stronger than that of the Blood Demon Sect. After all, it was an old, Eighth-Rank Sect, and this bid made another group of people keep their mouths shut.

However, the Blood Demon Sect seemed not to fear the Flowing Snow Sect and followed up with, “65 million.”

“What, does the Blood Demon Sect have so much money to throw around? You just increased the bid by 20 million, and now you’re only adding 5 million?

A chuckle came from the Flowing Snow Sect’s room: “80 million.”

“90 million,” the Blood Demon Sect countered.

“100 million.”

The Flowing Snow Sect spoke again, seeming extremely confident.

“100 million Gold Coins the first time…”

As the Blood Demon Sect remained silent, Yun Qianqian called out clearly.

“100 million Gold Coins the second time, is there anyone who would like to raise the bid?”

“100 million Gold Coins the third time, if no one else is bidding, then this Golden-Eyed Demon Flower’s Beast Blood will go to the Flowing Snow…”

“Two hundred million.”

Just in that critical moment, the unassuming voice that had bid on the Flower of the Demon Spirit spoke up again!

“Bang!”

The entire auction hall erupted into chaos!
