"8 million!"
"8.5 million!"
"9 million!"
All top powers competed furiously for the tier-6 cleansing pill formula. It can, after all, let them grow core formation and nascent soul experts.
No one will give up on such a thing.
Even the second-grade sects who had this many spiritual stones wanted to bid; however, they all gave up since it was a risky thing to have.
"Sigh! It would’ve been good if we had strength or at least some friendship with Ye Chen."
"Yeah, look at the Su family and Buddhist Temple; they are not bidding for this formula; it must be that they have received it already."
"No matter what, we must make sure to leave a good impression on the fellow Ye Chen."
"Yes, that’s what we should do, but what about the Frostfire sect, Flame Dragon sect, and Sword Pavilion? We have some ties with them."
"This… Cut the ties with the Frostfire sect immediately after the auction is over. As for the Flame Dragon Sect and Sword Pavilion, let’s wait and see. The probability of them apologizing to Ye Chen and punishing Zhi Qiang and Cheng Hao is higher! They might even try to recruit Ye Chen, so keep in touch for now."
"Understood, sect master!"
Many small power sects secretly made decisions.
Mo Chongsheng, who was in the auction hall, didn’t fail to notice this as many glanced at him with unfriendly glances.
Thinking of what they all were trying to do, he couldn’t help but grind his teeth in anger.
’Ye Chen! No matter what inheritance you have, don’t think you can escape death!’ He thought with a vicious look as his intention to kill Ye Chen only got stronger.
He was not the only one with this thought; there were many inside the auction hall who were still clamoring about Ye Chen’s treasure.
But was that the truth? Of course not, they were just jealous of his luck and as well as handsomeness. Many felt he deserved to die because of this.
Then there were also people with low brains who thought they could extract inheritance from him and become famous.
The sect masters and people from the other powers noticed this; however, they made no effort to stop them. If they did, then how could they save Ye Chen and get him to owe a favor? So almost all of them acted like they had seen nothing.
What they didn’t know was that this behavior had fallen in Ye Chen’s eyes, and he saw through what they were thinking.
’A pity that such tricks won’t work on me.’ He shook his head slightly and glanced at the dragon boxes No. 4 and No. 9.
Although him auctioning the tier-6 formula made many people change their minds, he didn’t think Zhi Qiang and Cheng Hao would let him go.
They were bound to attack him when the time came. Especially Zhi Qiang, who must be losing his mind right now.
With his tier-4 pill gone and now even the treasure, how could he feel good?
Cheng Hao was also feeling angered as two of the items he wanted were in the hands of Ye Chen.
…
"12 million!"
"12.5 million!"
"13 million!"
While everyone was busy with their thoughts, the bidding kept going on. No one wanted to give up, so some of them even took out their personal spiritual stones for bidding.
This included the Lin, Wu, and Mu families.
But soon even these many spiritual stones could not keep up with the bidding, so they had to give up in dejection.
Now only Zhi Qiang, Cheng Hao, and Ji Feng were left.
Like the three families, they also had to take out spiritual stones from their pockets; they had, after all, spent quite a number of spiritual stones on items in the auction.
Zhi Qiang’s intestines were green with regret now. He wanted to make up for his mistakes, so he had bought many items in this auction, hoping his sect would not pursue him.
But now his actions were backfiring as he couldn’t bid further.
"Ye Chen! I will kill you!" He threw the items in the box with rage.
…
"20 million mid-grade spiritual stones!"
Cheng Hao suddenly increased the bid by 5 million, stunning everyone inside the auction.
No one had thought he would do this; even Ji Feng didn’t expect it and fell silent.

Although he was a crown prince, his cultivation was too low, so he didn’t have too many spiritual stones on him. As for the spiritual stones given by his father, they were not enough to compete with this bid.
"I should’ve taken more spiritual stones from Father," he couldn’t help but smile wryly as he saw a great chance of earning contribution slipping away.
However, he didn’t care too much about the loss and started to think about how to approach Ye Chen.
As long as he can make friends with him, everything will be easy.
…
"The highest bid is 20 million mid-grade spiritual stones! I will count to three; if no one else makes the bid, then this formula will belong to the guest inside the No. 4 dragon box," Hong Fang announced, after which he didn’t hesitate and raised the mallet.
"20 million once!"
"20 million Twice!"
"And sold!"
"Congratulations to the no. 4 dragon hall on winning the bid. For the safety of the formula, this transaction would be done after the auction is ended, so please be patient for a while and enjoy bidding on the next item if you would like to," Hong Fang declared, making everyone stunned.
He had, after all, said the formula was the last item, so everyone expected him to end this now.
"Did Ye Chen give another formula to auction?"
"Holy shit! He already earned 20 million just now! Just how many spiritual stones does he want?!"
The auction hall couldn’t help but become noisy while Cheng Hao’s face turned black and blue.
"Manger Hong Fang, didn’t you say this was the last item?" He inquired in a condescending tone.
In response, Hong Fang nodded in agreement.
"Yes, I did say the formula of the tier-6 cleansing pill was the last item; however, I never said there was only one formula," he replied with a smile.
After which he didn’t bother with him and announced.
"Ladies and gentlemen, there is one more piece of tier-6 cleansing pill formula. The rules and starting bid are the same, so hurry up and bid for it," he said.
Hearing this, the auction hall couldn’t help but become noisy once again.
"Manger Hong Fang, is this how you auction items?!" Cheng Hao couldn’t help but roar in anger.
While hearing him, Hong Fang frowned in displeasure.
"Cheng Hao, the BlueMoon pavilion has a rule of not disclosing the item or any information about it before the auction. If you still want to complain about this, then I won’t mind taking back the formula as well as banning you in the southern province!" The old man stated with a cold look.
Hearing this, Cheng Hao became silent, as did the people who wanted to ask about how many formulas Ye Chen was auctioning.
"The tier-6 formula isn’t something that can grow up on the tree, so if anyone is interested, they should bid for it rather than complain later." Hong Fang said, indicating that there are not many such formulas for auction.
As for how many there were, others could only guess.
But no one hesitated and started to bid for it. There was no surprise here as the second formula ended up in the hands of Crown Prince Ji Feng for 14 million mid-grade spiritual stones.
Now the only last one was left; however, no one was aware of it as Hong Fang didn’t bother to disclose.
Because of this, the bidding was not as fierce as the first two, and it was finally won by the Wu family for 12.9 million. The spiritual stones brought by them were, of course, not enough, but they had borrowed them secretly from some loyal low-level sects.
The one who lost to the Wu family was none other than Zhi Qiang. It’s not like he didn’t try to borrow the spiritual stones, but no one helped him; hence, he ended up losing.
However, he was confident in getting the next piece of formula until he heard the thankful words of Hong Fang as he commenced the end of the auction.
"Ye Chen! I will skin you alive!" He shouted with fury, once again throwing things inside the box.
…
"Hey, how many spiritual stones might Ye Chen have earned?"
"A total of 40 million or higher after cutting the commission of BlueMoon Pavilion."
"What if the pavilion doesn’t change any commission?"
"That’s impossible for them to do it, but if they really did, then Ye Chen should’ve earned 46.9 million mid-grade spiritual stones!"
"Hiss! That’s almost 50 million! He can found his own sect with this much wealth."
The crowd couldn’t help but whisper, with many people’s eyes flashing with greed.
