1895 Slap on Face 10
Then she could do whatever she pleased.
If she wanted the Heavenly Dew Pills, she could produce them in large quantities herself. There was no need for her to spend 2.8 million on them.
As Zhao Dierâs bid was raised, the room fell into a hushed silence. Everyone held their breath, waiting to see if Gu Chaoyan would continue with her bidding. How much would the price for the Heavenly Dew Pills escalate? It had already reached a staggering 2 million, and now it stood at 2.8 million. Spectators were eagerly anticipating the unfolding drama, as there were always individuals who were both foolish and wealthy.
Zhao Dier, too, eagerly awaited Gu Chaoyanâs response. Even at 2.8 million, she was ready to outbid her without hesitation. Piaomiao Pavilion was confident in their ability to do so, but Gu Chaoyan was not.
What if she married the King of the Saint Divine Land?
In the Saint Divine Land, where nobody cultivated, nothing held true value.
Gu Chaoyan lacked confidence.
Without saying a word, Gu Chaoyan let the auctioneer make the final call. âThe Heavenly Dew Pills, sold for 2.8 million Golden Sabers to Lady Dier.â
Silence filled the room.
âThe next item is the Meteor Hammer. It possesses great power, but its weight is a disadvantage.â
While the auctioneer continued speakingâŠ
Zhao Dier wore a smug smile on her face.
âWhy donât you take a good look at yourself in the mirror? Sheâs no match for me! If the auctioneer hadnât intervened, the black iron would have been mine!â
Zhao Dierâs pride swelled within her. Despite facing obstacles throughout the day, she had just successfully secured the bid for the Heavenly Dew Pills.
Certainly, Zhao Dier was filled with happiness and pride.
HoweverâŠ
Wuxing couldnât help but sigh, feeling a sense of exasperation. As a member of Piaomiao Pavilion, he couldnât help but notice the lack of strategic thinking from Lady Dier.
Did she truly believe that she had won the competition?
âElder Miss, Piaomiao Pavilion is capable of producing Heavenly Dew Pills on our own. We donât need to spend 2.8 million golden sabers to obtain them. Even if we did, 1.8 million golden sabers would already be considered a high price for Heavenly Dew Pills. By spending a total of 2.8 million golden sabers, youâve essentially gifted Haitian Auction House a generous sum,â Wuxing explained with a hint of disappointment.
ââŠ.â
âIf you wish to compete, you should do so within a reasonable range. Winning for the sake of winning serves no purpose,â Wuxing reminded her.
Elder Miss would undoubtedly complain to Mr. Head, and as the one responsible for accompanying her, Wuxing would also face Mr. Headâs scolding. It was not a worthwhile outcome.
Hearing Wuxingâs words, a few people around them began to chatter. âLetâs forget about acquiring anything today. We can target someone who is both foolish and wealthy when Elder Miss is not around. We should distance ourselves from her. Spending 2.8 million for a single Heavenly Dew Pill, how foolish of her to disrupt the auctionâs rules. Piaomiao Pavilion is becoming increasingly arrogant.â
Such was the conversation circulating among them.
Zhao Dierâs expression darkened.
She had been so fixated on obtaining the item that she hadnât considered the consequences. She hadnât anticipated being scolded in such a manner.
Zhao Dierâs face grew solemn.
She was certain that Gu Chaoyan had intentionally orchestrated this. Gu Chaoyan sought revenge against her.
