Chapter 2382: Chapter 2386: White Fox Fairy
"It seems you’re about to break through to the Peak of Integration. Looks like this little drunkard’s injuries have healed!"
The skinny old man spoke softly, glanced at Jiang Chen, and continued, "This little drunkard has indeed taken on a good disciple!"
"That’s right, well, you should see whose disciple it is!"
Hu Yiqiu said smugly.
"Still the same shameless manner."
The skinny old man smiled faintly, his figure suddenly disappearing into the air without talking more with Hu Yiqiu, leaving only an admonition: "The auction continues!"
Huff!
A sound of exhaling filled the venue; even though the skinny old man hadn’t released his aura, his identity as a Saint made everyone feel extremely oppressed.
"Master, do you know that senior?"
Jiang Chen turned his head to Hu Yiqiu.
"Just an old geezer."
Hu Yiqiu said indifferently.
Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, then smiled lightly. Since Hu Yiqiu didn’t want to say more, he also stopped asking further questions.
"Elder Wine, I’m sorry!"
Mu Wanqiu hurriedly clasped her hands in a salute to Hu Yiqiu and apologized.
It was due to her shout that led to the subsequent series of events.
"Little girl, trying to borrow influence, you’ve found the wrong person. You’ll be exposed sooner or later!"
Hu Yiqiu spoke indifferently.
Jiang Chen was taken aback for a moment, glanced at Mu Wanqiu, and then turned to look at Tan Ming on the second floor, discovering that Tan Ming was watching Mu Wanqiu with a wary expression in his eyes.
Borrowing influence? Mu Wanqiu’s scheming is really deep!
Jiang Chen glanced at Mu Wanqiu again, revealing a look of disgust in his eyes.
Mu Wanqiu’s face turned pale, she opened her mouth to explain but sighed helplessly.
In front of someone like Hu Yiqiu, it’s better to put away those small schemes.
Fan Buzhuo’s brows furrowed slightly, glanced at Mu Wanqiu, revealing a look of disappointment, seemingly thinking of something, lightly shook his head.
"Has everyone snapped back to attention?"
A shout rang out, Zhang Qiushan gave everyone time to adjust their mindset, and said with a light smile, "The auction continues, this young man has bid fifty million, does anyone else want to bid?"
Everyone in the venue glanced at one another, looking towards four directions: Spear Emperor Ling Tian, White Fox Fairy, Tan Ming, and Mu Wanqiu.
Mu Wanqiu opened her mouth, glanced at Jiang Chen, but did not bid again.
"Oh, my lord, this time I can’t let you have it, this Sky-Cleaving Strike intrigues me quite a bit too!"
A coquettish laugh sounded, White Fox Fairy glanced at Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen was slightly taken aback, turned to look at White Fox Fairy, seeing a hint of goodwill in her eyes.
At that moment, Jiang Chen smiled lightly and said, "Highest bid wins, just a fair competition!"
"Oh, thank you for understanding, my lord."
White Fox Fairy threw a charming wink at Jiang Chen and then looked up at Zhang Qiushan: "Fifty-one million!"
"Fifty-five million! If it goes beyond this number, this Emperor won’t compete further!"
A cold voice rang out, Spear Emperor Ling Tian joined the bidding again.
"Then I appreciate Ling Tian senior holding back, fifty-six million!"
Tan Ming saluted Spear Emperor Ling Tian with clasped fists and called out lightly.
"Sixty million!"
Jiang Chen glanced at Tan Ming, spoke again.
Tan Ming’s expression changed slightly, glaring fiercely at Jiang Chen, warily glancing at Hu Yiqiu, showing a hint of hesitation.
"Young Master Ming, if we don’t win this Sky-Cleaving Spear, we might not be able to explain after returning!"
Nearby, an old man spoke quietly.
"I know! But we don’t have any more Spirit Stones!"
Tan Ming said through gritted teeth, "This time, my father handed everything in the family to me, wanting to use this Sky-Cleaving Spear to build relations with Young Lord, but..."
Looking at White Fox Fairy, then at Jiang Chen, Tan Ming’s face turned gloomy: "These two aren’t ones we can intimidate!"
"Sixty million Spirit Stones plus five pieces of Grade Seven Spirit Grass!"
Tan Ming’s fiery eyes, looking viciously at Jiang Chen and White Fox Fairy, suddenly shouted out.
"What?"
"He’s really offering Grade Seven Spirit Grass for the bid!"
"Adding so much at once, is Tan Ming going all in?"
"This price... it’s hard to say if it’s a gain or a loss!"
Tan Ming’s bid caused an uproar among the crowd in the venue.
Even though Zhang Qiushan said Spirit Grass could substitute Spirit Stones, everyone knew, Grade Seven Spirit Grass couldn’t be exchanged for Spirit Stones easily. Usually, this level of Spirit Grass trading is done through bartering!
White Fox Fairy slightly furrowed her brows, showing hesitation in her eyes, and turned to look at Jiang Chen below.
"Fifty million Spirit Stones plus eight pieces of Grade Seven Spirit Grass!"
Jiang Chen spoke emotionlessly as he bid.
"Eight pieces of Grade Seven Spirit Grass!?"
"What’s happening? Did he rob a top-tier Sect?"
"Damn, this kid, with his Mid Divine Infant Realm, dares to run around with so much Grade Seven Spirit Grass and such a large sum of Spirit Stones?!"
"Is this kid insane? Where did he get so much Spirit Grass? Could it be..."
The crowd in the venue was all stunned, looking at Jiang Chen stupidly, those with active minds looked at Jiang Chen, then at Hu Yiqiu, their eyes turning, pondering something unknown.
Hu Yiqiu’s eyelids twitched upon hearing this, he glanced at Jiang Chen, showing a look of appreciation and relief.
He clearly knew that the Sky-Cleaving Spear was absolutely worth this price, but even knowing this, he couldn’t help but feel the pinch upon hearing Jiang Chen’s bid. And Jiang Chen being so straightforward in calling out this price not only showed his steady mindset but also his trust in him, which warmed his heart.
"Oh, since My Lord likes this Sky-Cleaving Spear so much, then I won’t compete with you."
White Fox Fairy’s enchanting voice rang out again.
"Thank you!"
Jiang Chen turned and clasped his fists toward White Fox Fairy.
The Fairy Fox Sect is the number one Sect in Qinghe Realm, the primary Sect of an inner circle large realm, the resources within its Sect are absolutely not comparable to those peripheral forces. Even someone like Zhang Yubo, a realm master, might not be able to compare.
No matter what reason White Fox Fairy had for giving up the bid, Jiang Chen wouldn’t think she couldn’t afford it, he would acknowledge her favor.
"No need to be polite, My Lord, if you have the time, do visit my Fairy Fox Sect, this lady will welcome you warmly."
White Fox Fairy chuckled and extended an invitation.
Jiang Chen was slightly taken aback, showing hesitancy in his eyes.
"Please inform the Purple Fox Sect Master upon returning that this old man and his disciple will certainly visit within a year, and I hope she won’t mind."
Before Jiang Chen could respond, Hu Yiqiu took the initiative to agree.
Jiang Chen was slightly surprised, then also smiled lightly and nodded toward White Fox Fairy. Although he didn’t know why Hu Yiqiu agreed, he was sure it wouldn’t cause him any harm.
