As soon as Qin Mei's voice fell, a female clerk walked up onto the stage with an exquisite box in her hands and left after placing it on a table beside Qin Mei.
Qin Mei carefully opened the box, and a crystal-clear pill immediately appeared in everyone's sight, followed by a strong fragrance that made everyone's soul refreshing.
"As everyone knows. This is the Divine King rank pill, Soul Rejuvenating Pill. Not only could it be used to treat an injury to one's soul, but it could also raise one's soul to a whole new level. It is an absolutely precious treasure!" Qin Mei said with great enthusiasm.
"The starting price is set as a ten million best-graded Divine Stones, and the minimum bid is one million each time."
Qin Mei smiled charmingly and said loudly. "Let's the bidding start….Now!"
"One hundred million." Zhou Junyi spoke directly as soon as Qin Mei's voice fell. His words immediately silenced everyone in the hall.
The original, exciting atmosphere that Qin Mei built up was now replaced with a gloomy aura. Anyone with a good sense could feel an undercurrent building up silently. It was as if an intense war was about to break out.
Qin Mei didn't flinch in the slightest. She smoothly said further. "The guest in room number one bid one hundred million. Anyone wants to follow?"
"Third Prince is so hateful!" Inside Zhou Ling'er's room, Chu Tong'er cursed angrily.
On the side, Zhou Ling'er was calm, as she had already prepared for this. She spoke calmly. "One hundred million and one million."
Zhou Junyi immediately laughed and said ridiculously. "Second Sister, you've lost our Royal Clan's face by doing this. Now, people have already misunderstood that we're poor… If you don't have money, how about I lend you some?"
However, Zhou Ling'er didn't say anything in return, making Zhou Junyi click his tongue in dissatisfaction. He felt like he had just punched a pillow with no response.
A trace of ruthlessness appeared in his eyes as he spoke. "One billion."
To his knowledge, Zhou Ling'er only had one billion at most. It was impossible for her to fight him further.
"One billion." Qin Mei smiled brightly. The struggle between Zhou Junyi and Zhou Ling'er was completely unrelated to her. "Is there anyone who wants to follow?"
As she spoke, she glanced at Zhou Ling'er's room as if asking her.
Zhou Ling'er's eyes went cold. Her hands clenched tightly and soon relaxed. She slowly closed her eyes and said nothing further.
Seeing that there was no response from Zhou Ling'er, the crowd immediately whispered among themselves. Their buttocks weren't even getting warm, and the auction today seemed to come to an end already.
Zhou Junyi chuckled. "Ah… I'm sorry, my dear sister. You can't blame me for this, right? After all, you're the one who doesn't have money."
"Master…" Chu Tong'er looked at Zhou Ling'er helplessly. She didn't expect Zhou Junyi to investigate Zhou Ling'er so accurately like this.
"Bastard…" Ximen Wu cursed in a low voice. His father prepared one billion for him, but he knew it was useless as Zhou Junyi was definitely aware of this.
He sighed and closed his eyes helplessly. As much as he wanted to ask Yun Lintian whether he had another batch of the pill, he didn't want to trouble him anymore. Yun Lintian had already risked his life to give them this opportunity. If he wanted to blame, he could only blame his small purse.
Yun Lintian was slightly surprised. He thought that the Ximen Clan was definitely going all out to win this, but from Ximen Wu's dejected look, he clearly didn't have enough money.
Mu Qing noticed this and explained. "Our Ximen Clan got a high expenditure in the past few years. We can't come up with a large sum of money at once."
Yun Lintian nodded gently and said nothing.
"No one?" Qin Mei was clearly disappointed. She thought there would be an exciting battle today since her young miss told her to come here.
Yun Lintian took a deep look at Qin Mei briefly and asked. "Brother Ximen, do you dare to offend this Third Prince?"
Ximen Wu was taken aback and hurriedly asked. "Brother Lin…"
Yun Lintian turned to look at him and asked again. "Do you dare?"
Ximen Wu took a deep breath and said firmly. "Yes!"
Yun Lintian smiled and said. "Bid five billion. As long as I raise my hand, you can add another one billion."
Ximen Wu, Ning Yue, and Mu Qing were shocked upon hearing this.
"One billion first time." Since there was no one bidding further, Qin Mei could only count.
She looked around briefly and said further. "One billion second time."
"One billion third…"
Returning to his sense, Ximen Wu quickly shouted. "Five billion!"
Hiss!
Everyone in the hall sucked in the cold air and subconsciously looked toward Ximen Wu's room, wondering who was so daring to bid against Zhou Junyi.
A charming smile bloomed on Qin Mei's face once again. She quickly said. "The guest in room number six bid five billion. Anyone wants to follow?"
At this moment, the smile on Zhou Junyi's face disappeared. His eyes turned cold as he looked at Ximen Wu's room. "How dare he?"
The middle-aged man behind him had a frown between his brows. He felt something was nothing right, but he didn't say anything in the end.
Zhou Junyi suppressed the anger in his heart and said coldly. "Six billion."
"Seven billion."
As soon as Zhou Junyi's voice fell, Ximen Wu immediately followed when he saw Yun Lintian raise his hand.
This further added a layer of frost on Zhou Junyi's face. He said angrily. "Eight billion!"
"Nine billion." Ximen Wu glanced at Yun Lintian's hand and said without hesitation.
"Bastard!" Zhou Jungyi cursed loudly. "Ten billion! Let's see if you dare, Ximen Wu!"
However, Ximen Wu turned deaf to his threatening words. He saw Yun Lintian raise his hand. He said. "Eleven billion."
Boom!
Zhou Junyi smashed the table into pieces out of anger. The middle-aged man wanted to stop him, but it was too late.
The smile on Qin Mei's face receded a little as she said. "The guest in room number one. You have violated our rules here. This will be the first warning and you will have to pay the compensation later."
It was at this moment did Zhou Junyi calmed down. He quickly said. "Please forgive me, Fairy Qin. It was a spur of the moment."
He took a deep breath and said. "I bid twelve billion."
As soon as he said this, he immediately looked toward Ximen Wu's room. However, there was no response…
