Goddess and Unknown Punk
“Fifty-one million.”
“Ximen Buxing, what are you playing at?!”
“Do you even have that much?”
Mu Yu looked over in the direction scathing comments were fired. Lie Shang was the one who offered the bid. Ximen Buxing was innocently caught in the crossfire, yet he shrugged and fanned it off. “That’s not even your business, is it? Meng Xin, if would marry me, though, I’d be happy to consider purchasing the dragon vine for fifty-one million and gifting it to you. How about it?”
“Hey, Shameless, stop taking whatever it is that’s giving you delusions.”
Meng Xin minded her own business and offered, “Fifty-five million.”
Lie Shang: “Fifty-six million.”
“Who’s he?”
“I don’t know his name, but he rattled Liu Feng with only two fingers.”“Hmm, sounds like him and I should have a scrap.”
Meng Xin presumed she wasn’t at risk whilst at the auction but would need to immediately leg it once she obtained the dragon vine, lest Lie Shang try anything.
“Sixty million.”
“Sixty-one million.”
The bid soon reached ninety-one million, much to the joy of Beiya, who didn’t expect to earn so much. In fact, their company had never sold anything for so much.
Mu Yu: I had no idea he was so filthy rich. I should’ve given Xiaoshuai to him. He could’ve raised the glutton into a giant. I can’t even imagine how that much would look…
Meng Xin didn’t have enough on her to continue bidding. While her sect would back her without hesitation, their patriarch might’ve had something to say if the price rose any higher.
“Would you be able to let me have the dragon vine? Jade Sect will be happy to exchange it for something else,” Meng Xin suggested.
“I do want something from Jade Sect, indeed. If you can exchange it with me, you can have the dragon vine,” answered Lie Shang, in a teasing undertone.
Meng Xin smiled. “What might it be?”
Lie Shang looked back at Meng Xin with a piercing gaze. “Your life.”
Meng Xin: He’s still bearing a grudge. Well, I guess I shouldn’t be surprised when I know how ruthless he is.
Meng Xin opined, “May I ask how I offended you? If you do not name a reason, I will not let that go for it would desecrate Jade Sect’s reputation.”
“Why are you asking the obvious? I guess not many people present know how shameless and conniving you truly are behind people’s backs, you fraud,” Lie Shang replied in a calm voice.
“It is easy to condemn someone without pretext. Everything I do and say represents the eight great sects’ principles. I have nothing to fear.”
“That won’t change your sealed fate.”
“Bro, what is this? Miss Meng Xin and I are engaged. I’ll be a widower if you kill her,” Ximen Buxing chimed in.
“Let us see if you have what it takes,” replied Meng Xin, maintaining her gracious smile.
Lie Shang fixed his gaze on Meng Xin. Cognisant of the two enemies’ backgrounds and in consideration of their business, Beiya climbed onto the circular platform and interrupted. “Please mind your manners while you are here. We are here to do business, not resolve grudges.”
Meng Xin retracted her energy and made her next offer of ninety-five million. All eyes turned to Lie Shang, expecting a counter. To their bewilderment, Lie Shang smirked and left.
“Get back here! Buy the dragon vine, you bugger!” fumed Mu Yu.
Meng Xin feigned indifference, but she was livid deep down. She was confident Lie Shang merely wanted to take her for a ride.
“Ninety-five million. Do we have any higher bids? No? In that case, the dragon vine is M-”
“Mine!” an elder declared in a booming voice and reached for dragon vine from above.
“Wh-” Four Body Severing Realm adepts were sparked before they could finish their utterance.
