Lord of Bones

Chapter 807 The final word

The female auctioneer frowned slightly when she heard this, but quickly returned to her professional smile, warm and bright.

Her eyes were like a hawk, accurately capturing the source of the sound.

After a little thought, she knew that the people in that room were from a certain force from Giant Wave Island.

Although she already knew what was going on, she still maintained her professional ethics and did not point it out directly. She said:

"My friend, this is wrong.

“We at Baoyuanlou have always been known for fairness and justice.

“But what happened today is indeed a special case.

“Every Elementalist on Gale Island will remember the kindness of Lord Xuanshuang in their hearts.

"Can't you make some concessions for the sake of friendship?"

The cold voice sounded again, with a bit of disdain and provocation, like a sharp blade in the cold wind: "Friendship?
“Humph, at the auction, only rules are respected, not friendship.

"Immortal Spirit Saliva, we are determined to obtain it.

"Let's start the auction quickly and don't waste everyone's time."

As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere in the building suddenly became tense and subtle, as if it was a taut string that could break at any time.

The auctioneer's expression changed slightly, but she quickly adjusted her mood, with a gentle smile still on her face:

"The Yuan masters in the northwest sea area are all grateful for the kindness of Xuanshuang Yuanjun in the past. Why do we have to force each other like this?"

The guest in the room on the fifth floor sneered, "Forcing each other?
"We are just ensuring that today's auction is conducted according to the rules. What's the problem?

"If we don't follow the rules, then why is this auction even open?"

The female auctioneer narrowed her autumn-water eyes slightly, a barely perceptible chill flashed across her eyes, and her voice remained professional and gentle as she spoke:

"Your Excellency's words are sharp, but you seem to have forgotten that Windward City, and even the entire Windward Island, all emphasize the word 'reason'.

“It’s a place that emphasizes rules and morality.

"The achievements of Xuanshuang Yuanjun cannot be erased with a few light words.

"What she protects is the peace of all of us.

“As a part of Gale Island, Baoyuanlou has always been fair.

"But we will not allow unreasonable things to happen."

In the room on the fifth floor, a cynical smile was heard, accompanied by a deep and magnetic voice:

“Of course we understand that this is Windward City.

“I know the rules of Windy City very well.

“However, everyone is equal before the rules.

“Even Xuanshuang Yuanjun is no exception.

“She had made an indelible contribution in killing the seventh-level monster, but she had already taken away all of the monster’s collection, so she did not owe him anything.

“Over the years, the forces in the surrounding seas have presented gifts to Xuanshuang Yuanjun one after another, and everyone knows the reason.

“If you want to take advantage of this to get ahead, then you should show your true abilities and compete fairly at the auction instead of letting others take advantage of you.

"As for Baoyuan Tower, how could we not see through your little tricks?
“I hope the real seller of the Dixuanling Saliva will not be deceived by the superficial efforts of Baoyuan Tower.”

After these words were spoken, there was silence in the auction house.

Only a few rooms whispered, and it was obvious that the remarks resonated with them.

The treasure of the seventh-level monster was swept away by Xuanshuang Yuanjun.

This is no different from their usual going out to sea to hunt sirens and seize resources.

For hundreds of years, the reason why the forces in the surrounding waters have continuously presented treasures to Xuanshuang Yuanjun is nothing more than an investment by the island forces in the future, and everyone is aware of this.

The two women in the bamboo forest are wearing green long skirts and have graceful figures, just like two graceful green bamboos.

At this moment, he looked helpless and wanted to explain, but he just shook his head gently and let out a long sigh.

They are merely the executors of the sect's will. Faced with the things coveted by the powerful people in the Life Spirit Realm, they are powerless to fight for them with their cultivation level in the Yuan Shen Realm.

In a certain room, the owner of Baoyuan Tower had a slightly gloomy expression, realizing that it would be difficult to give away this favor today.

But as the helmsman, he must maintain the reputation and rules of Baoyuanlou.

So he coughed lightly and signaled the female auctioneer on the first floor to auction the Earth Mysterious Spirit Saliva.

The female auctioneer downstairs stopped talking and continued auctioning the Xuanling Saliva as normal.

The atmosphere of the auction suddenly became tense and heated.

Various forces made bids one after another, and the sounds of bidding were heard one after another.

The price of the Earth Mysterious Spirit Saliva rose rapidly, far exceeding its true value.

Every time the price is refreshed, it is accompanied by exclamations and discussions, and the air is filled with a strong smell of gunpowder.

The forces from Giant Wave Island showed their determination to win.

No matter how high a price other forces offered, they continued to raise the price without hesitation, determined to win the Earth Mysterious Spirit Saliva.

As time slowly passed, the bidding for the Earth Mysterious Spirit Saliva seemed to be pushed to the peak by an invisible and powerful hand.

Those forces that had originally been eager to try and try to get closer to the Green Bamboo Forest by bidding for the Xuanling Saliva gradually showed signs of fatigue in the face of the ever-increasing prices.

The desire on their faces was replaced by reluctance, and finally they could only shake their heads helplessly and withdraw from this fierce and cruel competition.

The atmosphere in Baoyuan Tower was extremely tense, and the breathing of every Yuanist seemed to become heavy and slow.

Just when everyone thought that the Dixuanling Saliva would belong to the Giant Wave Island forces, the female auctioneer suddenly smiled as brightly as a spring flower, and her voice was as pleasant as a spring washing over stones:
"Room 33 on the third floor. Make a generous offer of three hundred Three-Pattern Embroidered Enrichment Pills."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was a sudden silence in Baoyuan Tower, as if the air had frozen.

Then, a burst of exclamations surged like a tide, breaking the silence.

The Wen Yun Dan is a precious treasure for cultivation that those who have reached the Wen Yun realm have been longing for.

Especially the three-lined Meditation Pill, which is rare among the rare ones, enough to make the strong people in the Transformation Realm crazy about it.

Most of the pills circulating in the market are one-line or two-line pills.

Even a two-lined Yundan requires more than 300 Earth Yuan Stones to purchase one.

The value of a three-patterned pill has soared to around 1,500 Earth Yuan stones per piece, and is often out of stock.

Three hundred three-patterned essence pills were an astonishing astronomical figure, and their value had already exceeded a drop of the Mysterious Spirit Saliva itself.

Such a bid is undoubtedly announcing to the world how powerful the bidder in the mysterious room on the third floor is.

All the elements in the room from Giant Wave Island looked at each other with shock written on their faces.

They originally thought that victory was certain, but they did not expect that at this critical moment, a Cheng Yaojin would suddenly appear and make such a lavish move.

After some urgent and intense discussions, they finally decided not to raise the price.

The windows of the mysterious room on the third floor are always closed.

But this bid announced to everyone that a truly powerful person only needed to make the final decision at a critical moment to shock the entire audience. As the final ownership of the Dixuan Lingsaliva was settled, the atmosphere in Baoyuan Building gradually returned to calm.

……

The auction will proceed in an orderly manner.

A delicate and soft beam of light penetrated the intricately carved window lattices, like fragments of time, sprinkling on Li Yuan's calm and steady figure, giving it a faint golden glow.

At this time, the middle-aged man who had led him into the room earlier walked into the room with slightly heavy steps.

His face was filled with guilt and helplessness, as if he was carrying a heavy burden.

He spoke slowly, with a barely perceptible tremor in his voice:

"Sir, regarding the Dixuanling Saliva you bid for, unfortunately, the owner of the building has decided to give it to Cuizhulin."

Hearing this, Li Yuan raised a faint yet profound smile, without any anger in his eyes.

To him, although the Earth's Mysterious Spirit Saliva is precious, only one drop of it will not be of much help to Xiaobai.

But what he really wanted in his heart was the Wanzhuo Xuanpan.

Just as he was about to ask for compensation, the middle-aged man seemed to have seen through his mind and took the lead, saying with a hint of urgency and pleading in his tone:

"The owner of this building is interested in meeting with you, hoping to buy the three hundred three-patterned pattern essence pills in your hands at a high price."

Li Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes sparkling with brilliance.

He quickly calculated the pros and cons in his mind, and said with a bit of joking and playfulness:
"Since the Dixuan Spiritual Saliva has already fallen into his hands, why does your master think he can get my three hundred Wen Yun Pills?"

The middle-aged man looked even more embarrassed when he heard this, and beads of sweat on his forehead sparkled under the light.

He took a deep breath and replied respectfully and sincerely: "I would like to ask you to condescend to move over and discuss this with the owner in person.

"Perhaps, under the arrangement of the host, it will surprise you."

Li Yuan thought about it, nodded slightly, and said, "Lead the way."

The two walked out of the room and into a richly decorated corridor.

Li Yuan followed the middle-aged man with steady and powerful steps, secretly speculating about this sudden meeting.

Led by the middle-aged man, they entered the spiral staircase leading to the top floor of Baoyuan Building.

After reaching the top floor, he stopped in front of a door that was carved with intricate totems and engraved with countless elemental patterns.

The door slowly opened and then entered.

The room was decorated in an elegant and refined style, and the air was filled with a faint scent of ink and tea.

The middle-aged man retreated quietly, leaving Li Yuan alone in the quiet room.

Soon, the sound of footsteps came from afar, like drizzle tapping on the window lattice, breaking the silence.

A seemingly ordinary old man slowly walked into the room.

The old man was dressed in a simple robe with fluttering sleeves, like a hermit in the mountains.

His face was kind, but his eyes shone with a sharp light that was inconsistent with his appearance.

“It is a great honor for Baoyuanlou to have such distinguished guests here.

"I am Ding Zhi, the owner of Baoyuan Tower. My respects go to you."

The old man smiled faintly, clasped his hands together and saluted, his manners revealing a great demeanor: "My friend, you are unfamiliar. Is this your first time visiting our Baoyuan Building?"

Li Yuan smiled back, but there was a bit of scrutiny in his eyes.

He could tell at a glance that the other party had reached the initial stage of Huawen Realm, and said, "Li is indeed new here. I heard that Building Master Ding is quite interested in the Wenyun Pill in my hand?"

Ding Zhi laughed, his voice as deep as thunder, and said, "That's right.

"Does my friend have anything he wants to exchange?"

Li Yuan raised a playful smile and said, "If you want to exchange something, it would be the Dixuan Spirit Saliva that was just auctioned, or... the Wanzhuo Xuan Plate."

Ding Zhi's face changed slightly when he heard this, but then he regained his composure, as if a breeze was blowing across the lake without causing any ripples: "My friend is really good at joking.

“The Mysterious Wanzhuo Plate is a rare item equivalent to a lower-grade spiritual treasure, and its value far exceeds three hundred Three-Line Pattern Enriching Pills.

“Looking at the entire Wandao Turbid Sea, the number would not exceed ten thousand.

“Some main islands where Half-step Life Spirit Realm experts are stationed don’t even have this thing.

"As for the Mysterious Earth Saliva, I have already promised to give it to the Green Bamboo Forest of Green Bamboo Island. I really cannot give it up."

The smile on Li Yuan's face gradually faded, and a hint of displeasure appeared in his eyes: "I thought that Baoyuan Building in Swift Wind City had an excellent reputation, but I didn't expect that they would go back on their word.

"You gave the Dixuan Spirit Saliva I bought to someone else. Isn't this putting me in a dilemma?"

Hearing this, Ding Zhi frowned slightly, took a deep breath, and remained calm, saying: "My friend, you are wrong. Baoyuanlou has always been honest to everyone.

"How about this? We are willing to compensate you with other precious things so that we won't let our friends suffer any loss. How do you think?"

Li Yuan snorted coldly, with a bit of bone-chilling chill, like the harshest wind in winter, piercing people's hearts:

"Rumors that the Mysterious Spirit Saliva was on me spread everywhere, causing all kinds of villains to attack me.

"Will I not be trapped in an irretrievable situation, with no way to defend myself?"

Ding Zhi's face instantly turned gloomy, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. He said:
"How to deal with the disturbances in the outside world is your own business, and has nothing to do with Baoyuan Tower.

“If a Yuan person asks you for the Dixuanling Saliva, you can just tell him that it is still in the Baoyuan Tower.

"After all, up to now, we have not touched a single one of your Wen Yun Dan, and we have never said a single untrue word."

Hearing this, Li Yuan did not move, but a mighty and unfathomable pressure like the sea suddenly erupted from his body.

Like a mountain torrent bursting its banks, it was unstoppable and enveloped the entire room in an invisible pressure.

At the same time, a circle of extremely gorgeous nine-colored elemental patterns quietly emerged behind him, as if they were real and emitting dazzling light.

The whole room is illuminated with colorful lights, like a fairyland.

The Yuan pattern contains Li Yuan's profound cultivation. At first glance, it seems as if one is facing an almighty god.

Ding Zhi only felt an unprecedented pressure coming towards him, as if an invisible mountain was pressing on his shoulders.

It made it difficult for him to breathe, his knees bent involuntarily, and he finally fell to the ground, his heart filled with shock and fear.

Ding Zhi never expected that Li Yuan's cultivation was so unfathomable that it even gave him the illusion that he was facing a half-step life spirit realm.

His face turned pale instantly and beads of sweat covered his forehead.

"Humph, if you really want the Wen Yun Dan in my hand, why did you send such a small character who can't make decisions to deal with me?"

Li Yuan's voice was cold. He did not look down at Ding Zhi who was kneeling on the ground, but instead fixed his eyes on the wall, as if he could see through the secrets hidden behind the wall.

At this moment, a clear and pleasant laughter came from behind the wall, with a bit of charm, as if it could touch the softest part of people's hearts:

"Haha, my friend is really a very secretive person, and even my identity was almost hidden from him.

"Please put away your pressure, my friend. I will definitely give you a satisfactory result."
