Forcibly opening it will only destroy the furnace and the pills within!
Using it as a birthday gift is indeed quite a clever idea!
With Chen Zhongâs explanation, everyone understood why the Young Master of the Chen Family was so adamant about acquiring this Xuan Yu Furnace.
So even those who were a bit unconvinced earlier had no more complaints now. After all, Chen Zhongâs logic was reasonable enough.
At this moment, many people thought that perhaps the person on the other side wouldnât continue bidding, since the Chen Family had made it so clear that they were buying this Xuan Yu Furnace as a birthday gift.
Whether in terms of sentiment or reason, this Xuan Yu Furnace should rightfully be given to the Chen Family.
Unfortunately, that was only their assumption. Ye Luoâs target this time was to suppress this Young Master Chen, regardless of whether he wanted to buy a gift or complete his secret mission!
Sorry, Ye Luo would not agree!
"Five hundred and ten thousand!"
With a plain remark, Ye Luo didnât even bother to provide an explanation.
As a result, in the eyes of everyone, it was Ye Luo who was in the wrong. After all, the Chen Family had already stated their intention and shown goodwill, yet this guy not only didnât appreciate it, he even continued to go against themâwasnât he deliberately clashing with the Chen Family?
Upon hearing Ye Luoâs words, Young Master Chen could no longer hold back. Of course, he wasnât stupid; Chen Zhongâs words had reminded him that he was in an auction house and must not let others become interested in the Xuan Yu Furnaceâthis was his primary objective, even if he didnât find a birthday gift for the Sect Master, he had to secure the Xuan Yu Furnace!
So, Chen Hao stood up abruptly and shouted loudly!
"A million! You there, who on earth are you? How has the Chen Family offended you? Or did I, Chen Hao, somehow provoke you? If my family has a grudge with you, then go deal with them. This gift is for the Sect Master, it has nothing to do with my family!
If you have a grudge with me, state your name, thereâs no need for such petty tactics!"
...
"Sigh, it seems that the person in that booth might indeed be someone acquainted with Young Master Chen, otherwise why provoke him so?"
"Who cares, letâs just enjoy the show. Itâs already at a million? The price is probably already beyond the Xuan Yu Furnaceâs actual worth, right? Haha, interesting. But who exactly is this guy anyway, daring to openly oppose Young Master Chen, yet afraid to reveal his name?"
With Chen Haoâs words, indeed, no one else expressed interest in the Xuan Yu Furnace; instead, they embraced a spectatorâs attitude, ready to watch the conflict unfold between the two!
"One million and ten thousand!"
Ye Luo seemed unfazed; the angrier his opponent got, the happier Ye Luo should be. Let them make a fuss? This is Longhun City, surely they wouldnât dare cause trouble here!
"One million, a hundred thousand. You there, dare to reveal your name? Hiding like that, canât show your face?"
Young Master Chen was boiling with anger inside.
If it werenât for this guy, he would have already gotten the Xuan Yu Furnace. But who on earth is he? Is he targeting me, or the Chen Family?
If this werenât Longhun City, Chen Hao would have undoubtedly charged over to see who dared spoil his plans.
But here in Longhun City, no matter how furious Chen Hao was, he had to hold it in.
"One million one hundred and ten thousand, I donât care what damn Chen Family you are, if you can outbid me, do it, if not, get lost and stop howling like a wolf or ghost!"
Silence!
With Ye Luoâs words, the entire auction house fell into a hushed silence!
Someone actually dared to call the Chen Family, one of the five major families of the Kunwu Sect, bullshit?
Someone actually dared to tell Chen Hao, the legitimate eldest son of the Chen Family and likely future Family Head, to scram?
If previously everyone had just been watching for entertainment,
Now, except for some booths, no one else even dared to breathe!
Everyone understood that if the speaker represented an equally formidable force, undoubtedly, this was a declaration of war between two great powers!
And since this person dared to be so brazen against the Young Master of the Chen Family, their background must be extremely powerful!
Silence, no one dared utter a word. Although those present in the auction house could count as having backgrounds and even having countless powerful individuals under them, how did that compare to the Kunwu Sect?
The Kunwu Sect, besides the Dragon Clan, was the one enormous entity in this region that no one dared to provoke!
This time, even Chen Hao was stunned, not expecting the person opposite to be so forceful.
Originally, Chen Hao was just angry, hoping to apply pressure to make Ye Luo let go.
But little did he know, his words werenât even particularly harsh, and the other side directly declared war!
Countless figures raced through Chen Haoâs mind as he guessed who it could be!
No matter how hard he thought, he couldnât figure it out!
The Kunwu Sect was formidable; across this region, aside from the Dragon Clan, there wasnât any force that dared to challenge the Kunwu Sect, and in fact, there hadnât been any major conflicts involving them for at least several thousand years.
Even if there were occasional disputes, they were merely younger members of the five families fighting among themselves.
But such disputes hardly ever involved the Kunwu Sect and rarely involved any of the five families altogether!
But where are they now? Theyâre in Longhun City!
To shout such things in Longhun City? As long as the person isnât an idiot, they should understand what that signifies!
The Dragon Clan holds a special status, to utter such words in Longhun City is in fact a public declaration of war!
...
The auctioneer did not pay any attention to Ye Luo and Chen Hao; seeing Chen Hao fall silent,
He said calmly, "Xuan Yu Furnace, is there anyone else bidding? If not, then this Xuan Yu Furnace..."
"Wait, wait a moment, Iâll bid one million five hundred thousand!"
Chen Hao snapped awake.
The dragon clanâs auctions donât give you a first, second, third call!
As soon as he believes no one is bidding, he announces the result immediately.
At this moment, Chen Hao hesitated slightly, which the auctioneer misunderstood.
No matter how bold Chen Hao was, he wouldnât dare provoke the Dragon Clan, but the Xuan Yu Furnace was indispensable, so he had to bravely interrupt the auctioneer!
As expected, the auctioneer shot an unhappy glance towards Chen Haoâs direction!
Then, his gaze turned to Ye Luoâs side!
"No matter how much he bids, Iâll add another ten thousand!"
Ye Luo said calmly!
Damn, this was supposed to be an auction, but because of the rivalry between these two and the others not daring to intervene, it had turned into a farce!
"No matter how much I bid, youâll add ten thousand, is that so? Fine, I bid fifty million! Do you still want to raise the stakes?"
Chen Hao roared in rage!
Fifty million? Thatâs right, fifty million, this was all the Immortal Stones he brought with him this time!
