Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi-Chapter 1765 - 1717: Dragon Emperor Bloodwood (Part 2)

Capítulo 1765: Chapter 1717: Dragon Emperor Bloodwood (Part 2)

Even if the strongest alchemist came, he was confident that he could hide any clues from them.

“I offer ten thousand realm stones!” came a deep voice.

“Trying to win this Netherworld Water Lily with just ten thousand? You’re looking down on people too much!”

“I offer twenty thousand.”

“Thirty thousand…”

The price kept climbing.

Yet, Xiao Yi never made a move.

Lin Sancheng seemed indifferent, but in fact, his attention was entirely on Xiao Yi. Seeing that Xiao Yi had yet to act, Lin Sancheng couldn’t help but feel a little anxious.

He had been instructed to set up this trap for Xiao Yi.

If Xiao Yi didn’t make a move, who would fall into the trap?

Although Lin Sancheng’s actions were highly discreet, he still couldn’t evade the sharp eyes of Xiao Yi, whose lips curved slightly upward, secretly chuckling coldly.

Xiao Yi tentatively spoke: “One hundred thousand realm stones!”

The last person to bid shook his head regretfully: “It’s already over a hundred thousand… I can’t afford that!”

Seeing Xiao Yi finally make a move.

Lin Sancheng relaxed a bit and glanced at a few people hidden within the crowd. These were his associates, who had been working together for years and were exceptionally in sync.

These few immediately began to drive the price up: “One hundred and fifty thousand!”

“Two hundred thousand…”

In no time, the price had already surpassed five hundred thousand realm stones.

You should know.

Even in the Blissful Heaven Realm, realm stones are extremely precious.

The price of an ordinary royal weapon is about ten thousand realm stones.

And for a Saint King Realm expert to set up materials to resist the Saint Emperor Celestial Tribulation, it only requires several thousand realm stones. Of course, this is because the Heavenly Dao of the Blissful Heaven Realm is exceptionally strong, accommodating many Saint Emperor Realm experts.

If it were like the Unharmed Heaven Realm.

Breaking through to the Saint Emperor Realm means facing the full suppression of the world, where even tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of realm stones won’t suffice!

The price of five hundred thousand realm stones was already comparable to some supreme Saint Emperor weapons.

Lin Sancheng squinted at Xiao Yi and said with a smile: “The price is now at five hundred thousand realm stones. Do you still want to bid? If not, this Netherworld Water Lily will be sold to them!”

In the crowd.

A young man with arms crossed and a pointed, monkey-faced appearance looked at Xiao Yi with arrogance and pride, shooting him a glance: “Kid, if you don’t have money, don’t pretend to be rich. This place is not for poor folks like you!”

Xiao Yi gave him a half-smiling glance.

It was precisely this glance.

The young man felt as if he had seen a piece of Netherworld Hell, causing his heart to tremble slightly.

His previously smug expression vanished without a trace.

Of course, Xiao Yi couldn’t possibly raise the price any higher. Pretending to hesitate, he was about to end this bidding when suddenly a voice came from the crowd: “Gou here has never heard anyone say that a guest of the Rejuvenation Pavilion is a poor person. Benefactor, since you want this Netherworld Water Lily, I, Butong, will place a bid for you, sixty thousand realm stones.”

Bang!

This statement immediately caused an uproar in the crowd.

“Sixty thousand realm stones?”

“It’s the owner of the Rejuvenation Pavilion, Gou Butong, and he actually intervened personally!”

“I didn’t expect that this kid was a guest of Manager Gou. It goes to show that you can’t judge people by their appearance!”

Lin Sancheng’s face twitched slightly.

He also didn’t expect Gou Butong would show up at this moment.

Lin Sancheng was doing business in the public trading area, which meant he relied on Gou Butong to survive!

If he offended Gou Butong, how would he continue to operate here in the future?

Just as Lin Sancheng was hesitating, a disturbance arose in the crowd, and a graceful woman strolled over. Beside her was a young man dressed in fine clothes.

The handsome young man had delicate features and stood tall.

At a glance, it was clear he was someone of immense wealth.

At his waist hung a token, inscribed with the characters: “Xuanyuan.”

This man belonged to the Xuanyuan Clan.

Moreover, Xiao Yi recognized this woman; she was none other than Xuanyuan Yuwei, the woman of the Xuanyuan Clan’s main branch whom he had saved earlier.

The moment Xuanyuan Yuwei appeared, Lin Sancheng’s anxious heart immediately calmed down.

“So it’s her?”

Xiao Yi’s pupils slightly contracted as he suddenly understood the entire situation.

It was Xuanyuan Yuwei who had sent him here and set up this trap to harm him.

This left Xiao Yi somewhat speechless.

He was, after all, Xuanyuan Yuwei’s savior, yet she bore a grudge just because he refused her offer to recruit him, plotting so meticulously to place him in such a perilous situation.

To think…

If he hadn’t seen through the Netherworld Water Lily’s authenticity, or if it weren’t for the Dragon Emperor Bloodwood…

Had Xiao Yi fallen for it…

Losing hundreds of thousands of world stones, going bankrupt would have been a minor issue.

He could have become a target, embroiled in endless trouble.

Upon realizing this.

Xiao Yi’s lips curled into a slight smile as he secretly transmitted a message to Gou Butong, who had just arrived in a hurry: “Manager Gou, no matter what I do later, just support me with all your might. I guarantee you won’t suffer any losses this time; instead, the Rejuvenation Pavilion will earn a fortune!”

“Huh?”

Gou Butong was taken aback. He had just returned from the treasury to find Xiao Yi being mocked as a pauper.

That’s why he initially stepped in with righteous indignation.

But once he realized the opposite side was Lin Sancheng’s stall, he actually regretted it, knowing in his heart that Xiao Yi was likely deceived. He was considering using his status to persuade Lin Sancheng to handle the matter discreetly.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yi proactively briefed him.

Though Gou Butong didn’t know what Xiao Yi was planning, he didn’t think much about it and replied: “Rest assured, I know what to do!”

In the crowd.

Xuanyuan Yuwei seemed to ignore Xiao Yi and walked straight to Lin Sancheng’s stall, looked at the Netherworld Water Lily, and said calmly: “What a fine Netherworld Water Lily. Searching high and low, only to find it effortlessly. This Netherworld Water Lily, I want it!”

Lin Sancheng cooperatively said: “My apologies, someone has already offered six hundred thousand world stones to purchase this Netherworld Water Lily…”

Xuanyuan Yuwei frowned slightly.

The handsome young man beside her snorted coldly: “Who? I’d like to see who dares to compete with my Xuanyuan Clan…” As he spoke, he looked at Xuanyuan Yuwei, “Yuwei, you want this, right? Just say the word, and I’ll have it delivered to you…”

“No!”

Xuanyuan Yuwei quickly stopped the handsome young man and said softly, “Though our Xuanyuan Clan is strong, we never bully others with our power, nor do we forcefully take things. Since this Netherworld Water Lily is up for bidding, we will offer a fair price as well.”

She looked up at Lin Sancheng and said: “Since someone has offered six hundred thousand world stones, I will offer six hundred and fifty thousand!”

“Alright!”

Lin Sancheng looked delighted as he turned to Xiao Yi, “This gentleman, Miss Yuwei of the Xuanyuan Clan has now offered six hundred and fifty thousand world stones, what do you say…”

Xiao Yi pretended to be in a dilemma.

Gou Butong said: “Benefactor, you have been a great benefactor to our Rejuvenation Pavilion. Regardless of the value of this Netherworld Water Lily, I am willing to bid for you!”

Seeing Gou Butong support Xiao Yi so firmly.

A flash of joy appeared deep in Xuanyuan Yuwei’s eyes. She merely intended to exact revenge for Xiao Yi refusing her offer, never expecting to make such a huge sum of money.

Even if she was born into the Xuanyuan Clan.

Who would ever think they had too much money?

Moreover…

These were world stones, much more precious than money!

Upon this realization.

Xuanyuan Yuwei seemed to only now recognize Xiao Yi, and said in surprise: “I didn’t expect it to be you? Alas, if I had known it was you, I wouldn’t have bid against you!”

The handsome young man frowned and asked: “Yuwei, you know him?”

Xuanyuan Yuwei replied: “Yes, do you remember when I was attacked and someone came to my rescue? He was the one who saved me. Alas, if I had known it was him, I wouldn’t have competed with him…”

The handsome young man eyed Xiao Yi and said: “Kid, I didn’t expect you saved Yuwei. As long as you bid seven hundred thousand world stones for this Netherworld Water Lily, I will let you have it…”
