Chapter 427: The Yue Xuan Auction

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Welcome to the Yue Xuan auction. Yue Xuan has just been established. Thank you for coming.”
On the auction stage, Lin Mo looked at the bustling hall and was secretly surprised.
There were so many people here. If he hadn’t occupied the city Lord’s mansion, there probably wouldn’t be so many people.
“Vice Palace Master Lin, the Purple Moon Palace has just been established and is already holding an auction. The scale of this auction must be very huge, right?” Someone said.
“Haha, that’s only natural. I’ll make it clear again. This time, there will be more than one earth grade treasure. Everyone, please look forward to it.”!!
Lin Mo laughed loudly. There were many people here, and these people had heard that the Yan Huang Dynasty’s nation-protecting magic tool, the flame divine spear, was going to be auctioned.
Therefore, many people had brought treasures with them, wanting to auction them off with Spirit Stones.
“What? There’s more than one?” Everyone was shocked. If that was really the case, who knew what kind of treasure would be the final item to be auctioned off?
“Hehe, let’s wait and see. Brother Lin, let’s hurry up and start the auction.”
Among the four private rooms at the front, Saintess Xia You walked out from one of them and chatted with Lin Mo.
It was as if she wasn’t the one who had joined forces with the Yanhuang Divine dynasty to attack the Purple Moon Palace a few days ago.
“That’s good too. Everyone can’t wait any longer. The Yue Xuan auction will officially begin.”
Lin Mo smiled and waved his hand. A maid walked up from behind with a silver plate in her hand.
Everyone in the hall stared at the maid who walked up with great anticipation.
Even the people in the private room were the same. They wanted to see what grade the first item was.
“The first item is the spirit rank 3 scarlet tiger battle formation. It’s the spoils of war from the Purple Moon Palace.”
“A treasure like the battle formation is extremely precious in the eastern continent. Everyone should know that I won’t waste any more words. The starting price is one million middle-grade spirit stones. Each increment must not be less than five hundred thousand. Let the bidding begin.”
The first item was a third tier spirit realm treasure. If it was an ordinary treasure, these people might not be interested in it.
However, if it was a battle formation, then things would be different. Although its grade was low, as long as the army was strong enough, it would be able to unleash a powerful force.
It could be said that in the eastern continent, all the forces that could have an army were all super first-rate forces.
There were no more than ten forces of such level in the eastern continent.
“Two million.” In the private room at the very front, the fifth Prince of Great Yan Divine Empire, Zhen Gu, walked out.
He cupped his fist at Lin Mo and said with a smile, “Brother Lin, you’ve really surprised me. You can even auction off treasures like battle formations.”
“Hehe, Prince Zhen Gu, You’re the future Emperor of Great Yan Divine Empire. How can you even say two million?”
A woman’s soft laughter rang out. Under the astonished gazes of the people, a woman dressed in a yellow robe walked out from the private room.
Lin Mo was a little surprised as well. From the conversation among the crowd, he learned that this person was the third princess of the Great Ancient Divine Dynasty.
She was extremely talented, and had defeated many geniuses of great ancient God dynasty, obtaining the first place.
He didn’t expect that such a person would actually participate in the auction.
“So it’s Princess Gu Luo. If you want this battle formation, you can also participate in the auction,” Zhen Gu said with a smile, making an inviting gesture.
“Of course. Who would complain about having too many treasures like the battle formation?”
Gu Luo smiled and said, “Five million. Prince Zhen Gu, your Great Yan Divine Empire doesn’t lack battle formations. Why don’t you give them to me?”
Hearing that, Zhen Gu shook his head and said, “I’m afraid that won’t do. Eight Million.”
“Nine million.”
“Ten million.”
The bidding process between the two of them was too drastic. Although many people in the hall wanted to make a bid, they could only shake their heads helplessly in the end.
The people from the other factions also watched the two bid. In the blink of an eye, the Crimson Tiger Battle Formation had already reached a high price of 15 million.
“20 million.”
At this moment, Zhen Gu originally planned to continue bidding. However, he discovered that the second prince of the Yanhuang Divine Empire had walked out.
He was expressionless as he directly participated in the bidding. Furthermore, he had increased the bid by 5 million.
This battle formation originally belonged to the Yanhuang Divine Empire, and it was their foundation. Now, it was being auctioned off by Lin Mo in public.
This was simply a great humiliation.
“So it’s the second prince of the Yanhuang dynasty. It’s a pleasure to meet you. I thought you guys wouldn’t come to participate in the bidding.”
Lin Mo cupped his fists and smiled. The spies he had arranged previously had not seen the people of the Yanhuang dynasty, so he thought that these people would not come.
It seemed that the intelligence work had to be raised a little.
“21 million,” Zhen Gu spoke again.
These words caused the second prince to frown. He stared at Zhen Gu and did not say anything.
“25 million.”
“26 million.”
“What do you mean?” The second Prince said angrily. He looked at Zhen Gu. This was a direct confrontation.
Every time Zhen Gu raised the price, it was one million. It was clear that he was going against him.
“Pay attention to the situation. This is an auction house. What does my normal auction have to do with you?” Zhen gu waved his hand without any fear.
“Cough cough, Yue Xuan auction house forbids fighting. Second Prince of the Yanhuang Divine Empire, if you don’t want to participate in the bidding, you can leave.” Lin Mo coughed and said.
Hearing this, the second prince’s expression became even uglier as he stared at Lin Mo and Zhen Gu.
However, he still compromised in the end. The Scarlet Tiger Battle Formation couldn’t be spread out.
Otherwise, even if he was a prince, he wouldn’t be able to absolve himself from the blame. This defeat and capture had already caused his status in the emperor’s heart to drop.
If the scarlet tiger battle formation really fell into the hands of another faction, it was likely that he, the prince, would have done everything he could.
“I bid 30 million.”The second prince calmed his emotions and made another bid.
“31 million.”Almost in the next instant, Zhen Gu had already made his bid.
Every time he raised the bid, it was only 1 million. This made the second prince more and more furious.
“31 million going once.”
Lin Mo spoke at the right time and dropped an auction hammer, reminding the second prince to continue bidding.
“31 million going twice.”
“Wait, I bid 35 million.”
The second prince quickly spoke and glared at Lin Mo fiercely. The speed at which he dropped the hammer was too obvious.
“36,000,000.”
Zhen Gu bid once again. Even Lin Mo couldn’t help but laugh. This was a blatant provocation…
“40,000,000. If you can still raise the price, then it’s yours.” The second prince roared angrily and stared at Zhen Gu.
“Sigh, why are you shouting so loudly? If you wanted to say it earlier, I would have given it to you. Don’t you know how to communicate?”
Zhen gu rubbed his ears and pretended to be helpless as he spread out his hands, indicating that he had given up on the competition.
“You…”
The second Prince felt as if he had punched cotton, and he felt extremely powerless.
In fact, he seemed to have heard a series of ear-piercing roars coming from his surroundings.
“Alright. Congratulations to the second Prince of the Yanhuang dynasty for buying the ‘Crimson Tiger Battle Formation’at the price of forty million middle-grade spirit stones.”
Lin Mo held back his laughter and dropped the auction hammer. He looked at Zhen Gu and nodded to himself.
As expected of the person he had high hopes for. It was not a waste for him to give him two battle formations at the price of half-selling and half-giving.
Helping him raise the price at such a critical moment could be said to worsen the relationship between Great Yan dynasty and Yanhuang dynasty. But, he still did it. This friend of his was worth it.
