C660 Wind State Auction House
After Qi Zhuohao left the Qingluo Pavilion, he rode a horse carriage straight to the auction house of Fengzhou Province. The auction house of Fengzhou Province was a property owned by the Fenghua Chamber Of Commerce. The Fenghua Chamber Of Commerce was one of the four major trading companies in the Sky City, and it controlled most of the shops in the Southern City. They were filthy rich.
Of course, the Qingluo Chamber Of Commerce was going to be established soon. At that time, the Fenghua Chamber Of Commerce would undoubtedly be suppressed by the Qingluo Chamber Of Commerce. The Fenghua Chamber Of Commerce was going to be established soon. The Qingluo Pavilion was built by the joint efforts of a few great mysterious sects. The Fenghua Chamber Of Commerce's background was not strong enough, and they were destined to be defeated!
The distance between the Qingluo Pavilion and the Wind Province Auction House was very far, and Qi Zhuohao felt helpless. He had left in a hurry, so he had forgotten to ask about the exact location of the Wind Province Auction House. Therefore, he had no choice but to ride a horse carriage, which delayed him for a full day.
When Qi Zhuohao stood outside the auction hall, it was unusually quiet. It was no wonder that there was only less than a day left for the auction. At this time, the people who came to participate in the auction were all in the auction hall, so it was naturally quiet outside.
One should know that the auction in Sky City was a continuous one, and there was no pause in the middle of the auction. From this, one could understand the strength and foundation of the auction hall. After three days of continuous auction, how many treasures would the auction hall be able to sell?
"Stop right there. This auction is about to end. What are you doing here?" Qi Zhuohao was stopped by an expert who was guarding the auction hall. He had just arrived at this time. It was suspicious. Furthermore, all the tickets for the auction had already been sold out. Qi Zhuohao didn't have any tickets with him.
"Friend, I am here to participate in the auction. Can you let me in?" Qi Zhuohao's tone and attitude were quite polite. Although he was famous, most of the warriors in Sky City did not know him.
Hearing this, the expert guarding the door snorted and said, "This is ridiculous. The Wind Province Auction is about to end. Moreover, you do not have a ticket. I can see that you are clearly here to cause trouble. Little bastard, hurry up and get lost. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite! "
This expert was at the fifth level of the transcendent realm, and his cultivation realm was even higher than Qi Zhuohao's. Therefore, he didn't put Qi Zhuohao in his eyes at all. And as soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding guards immediately surrounded Qi Zhuohao, as if they were ready to attack him.
No one was allowed to enter the auction without a ticket. This was the rule. The tickets for the auction were sold in advance, and Qi Zhuohao had no place to buy the tickets. In the eyes of the guards, Qi Zhuohao wanting to enter the auction was undoubtedly a pipe dream!
Qi Zhuohao's face instantly darkened. He shouted coldly and said, "Kid, it's fine if you don't let me in, but why are you insulting me? If you don't give me an explanation today, I promise I will kill you."
It was his fault that Qi Zhuohao didn't have a ticket to enter the auction. However, even if he was in the wrong first, he wouldn't allow these guards to insult him. It wasn't like he didn't have to pay for the tickets. Everyone could discuss this!
"Aiyoh! Kid, is the sun rising from the west? Will you be able to kill me? " The guard burst into laughter. In his opinion, Qi Zhuohao was an ignorant and fearless man. He didn't even know what kind of place this was.
" Brothers, attack! Cripple him! " The guard suddenly gave an order, and the rest of the guards immediately rushed forward. They actually dared to cause trouble at the Wind Province Auction. They had to teach this kid a lesson that they would never forget for the rest of their lives.
However, at this moment, a fat middle-aged man quickly walked towards the entrance of the venue and shouted loudly, "Stop!"
Hearing this, the guards immediately stopped in their tracks and respectfully bowed to the middle-aged man. "Lord President, you're back?"
"What's going on?" The middle-aged man was the temporary chairman of the Wind State Auction House, one of the stewards of the Wind State Auction House. Due to some matters, he did not host the auction. As such, he had just finished his business and rushed back to the auction house.
"Chairman, this brat doesn't have a ticket. He forcefully barged into our auction house. This subordinate is just about to teach him a lesson."
The guard replied respectfully. Only then did the middle-aged man turn his gaze towards Qi Zhuohao. In the next moment, he was stunned. Bean-sized beads of sweat rolled down his forehead. He quickly reacted and ran in front of Qi Zhuohao. Then, he knelt down.
"Pavilion Lord Qi, we, the trash of the Wind Province Auction House, have eyes but do not recognize Mount Tai. Please forgive us if we have offended you in any way!"
The middle-aged man was in fear and trepidation. In his heart, he cursed these guards. They were truly blind. Telling Qi Zhuohao, wasn't this courting death? Fortunately, he had arrived in time. If it wasn't for the fact that the Fenghua Chamber Of Commerce had sent him to participate in the grand ceremony of the Qingluo Pavilion... He had no chance to know Qi Zhuohao.
The guards were shocked and puzzled. Who was this young man? He was able to make the temporary chairman of the Wind Province Auction House kneel down. By the way, the chairman called him Pavilion Lord Qi. Could he be the Pavilion Lord Qi Zhuohao of the Qingluo Pavilion?
Thinking of this, the guards' backs were soaked in cold sweat. They did not dare to be neglectful, and all of them knelt down on the ground. They begged Qi Zhuohao to spare their lives. If Qi Zhuohao wanted to kill them, it would be as easy as stepping on ants. Furthermore, even the chairman of Fenghua Chamber Of Commerce had to lower his head and kneel when he saw Qi Zhuohao! How dare they provoke Qi Zhuohao? They were courting death! They were extremely ignorant!
Seeing this, Qi Zhuohao snorted coldly and looked at the middle-aged man. He said, "You are the chairman of the Wind Province Auction? I am here to participate in the auction, don't waste my time. This kid just insulted me. You know what to do. Also, I need a ticket. "
" Yes, don't worry, Pavilion Lord Qi. I understand what you mean. I have just one ticket left. Please accept it! "
The middle-aged man nodded and bowed. He had witnessed Qi Zhuohao's two women kill Nandou Zhenren with his own eyes. Qi Zhuohao's two women were so powerful. He estimated that Qi Zhuohao was even stronger. This time, Qi Zhuohao didn't bother with him. It could be said that he had escaped from death.
With another cold snort, Qi Zhuohao walked into the auction hall. The middle-aged man took a deep breath, stood up, and said angrily, "All of you are blind. How dare Pavilion Lord Qi provoke you? Do you not want to live anymore? What are you waiting for? Strip him and feed him to the dogs."
The middle-aged man was well aware that if he was late, Fenghua Chamber Of Commerce would be in big trouble. This seemed like a small matter, but in fact, it had almost destroyed Fenghua Chamber Of Commerce. He had to do what Qi Zhuohao said.
The guard begged, but it was useless. He had spoken nicely to Qi Zhuohao, and the miserable outcome had already been decided.
The Wind Province Auction House was indeed the property of Fenghua Chamber Of Commerce. The auction venue was incomparably huge. It could accommodate millions of people, and the seats in the auction hall were almost full. From this, it could be seen how attractive this auction was to the warriors!
According to the number on the ticket, Qi Zhuohao quickly found his own seat. The eighteenth seat was right in front of the auction stage. This ticket should have been reserved by the president of the Wind Province Auction House.1
Qi Zhuohao's arrival did not cause a ripple in the venue. Obviously, almost no one here knew who he was. Many of the people who came to participate in the auction came from different major powers. Some were even from the five great Earth Sect. However, none of these people had seen Qi Zhuohao before. Besides... Everyone's eyes were fixed on the auction stage. Who would notice Qi Zhuohao?
"Congratulations to distinguished guest Number 1357 for obtaining this Rootless Fruit at the price of 10,000 Purple Golden Coin. Next up is a Boundless Crimson Flame Heart. This is a Spiritual Objects Of Heaven And Earth. Please prepare yourselves!"
Qi Zhuohao was extremely shocked. Sure enough, the auction was a place where treasures gathered. He had just arrived when he saw a Heavenly Material treasure, Rootless Fruit, being auctioned off at an extremely high price. Furthermore, the next item up for auction was actually a Boundless Crimson Flame Heart. What luck!
The price of a genius treasure was actually so high in Sky City. This had also exceeded Qi Zhuohao's expectations. A Spiritual Objects Of Heaven And Earth could be sold for 10,000 Purple Golden Coin, while 10,000 Purple Golden Coin was equivalent to 100 million gold coins! This was too inconceivable.
"Everyone, this is the Spiritual Objects Of Heaven And Earth Boundless Crimson Flame Heart. It contains a vast amount of extreme fire energy. It is a superb treasure for fire-attribute martial artists to cultivate cultivation methods and martial skills. Moreover, the Boundless Crimson Flame Heart also has many wonderful uses. Without further ado, the auction for the Boundless Crimson Flame Heart begins now. The starting bid is 10,000 Purple Golden Coin. Each increment must not be less than 1,000 Purple Golden Coin. "
"Twenty thousand!" As soon as the auctioneer's voice faded, someone bid 20,000 Purple Golden Coin. Qi Zhuohao took a deep breath. The people of Sky City were indeed wealthy. This also proved the preciousness of Boundless Crimson Flame Heart!
"Twenty-five thousand Purple Golden Coin..." The price rose straight up. Qi Zhuohao's heart gradually sank. He had almost used up all his money, and only had less than 50,000 Purple Golden Coin left. If he had known earlier, he would have borrowed money from Tong Zhoushan.
Suddenly, an extremely unpleasant voice was heard. "Humph! A bunch of ignorant things! How can a mere few tens of thousands of Purple Golden Coin buy a Spiritual Objects Of Heaven And Earth? I'll bid 100,000 Purple Golden Coin!"
As the voice faded, the entire venue fell silent. 100,000 Purple Golden Coin buying a Boundless Crimson Flame Heart was obviously a loss. Although the Boundless Crimson Flame Heart had great effects, it was still a consumable treasure. After using it, it would be gone.
"37,000 distinguished guests are bidding 100,000 Purple Golden Coin. Is there any higher bid? If there isn't, the Boundless Crimson Flame Heart will belong to the 37,000 honored guests. " Seeing that no one had increased the bid, the auctioneer helplessly shouted. If the competitors were to slowly increase the bid, the price of the Boundless Crimson Flame Heart would definitely rise to over 100,000. What a pity!
"I bid 110,000 Purple Golden Coin!" Finally, Qi Zhuohao gritted his teeth and bid. The Heavenly Material that contained extreme fire energy was priceless to him. Since he had encountered the Boundless Crimson Flame Heart, he would get it no matter what.
Qi Zhuohao only had 50,000 Purple Golden Coin now, but he had already bid 110,000 Purple Golden Coin. Obviously, he couldn't care about that anymore. He would first control the Boundless Crimson Flame Heart under his name, then think of a way.
The crowd boiled up, and then became silent again. This time, no one increased the bid. Even number 37,000 didn't speak again. The auctioneer's three hammer strikes were the final sound, and the Boundless Crimson Flame Heart belonged to Qi Zhuohao.
Qi Zhuohao's powerful bid still did not attract the attention of many warriors. In Sky City, a mere 110,000 Purple Golden Coin was nothing. The wealth of some powerful rogue cultivators far exceeded this number!
"This auction item has been recorded in the register. Please go backstage to settle the relevant procedures after the auction ends!"
The auctioneer said in a clear voice. The next auction item was moved onto the auction stage. It was a piece of jade that weighed several thousand jin. It had no function and could only be used to make art pieces. Qi Zhuohao had no interest in such things.
The atmosphere of the auction was tense and calm at times. It had been an entire morning. Apart from the Boundless Crimson Flame Heart that Qi Zhuohao had won, he had also won over ten Heavenly Material treasures that contained extreme fire energy. The total value was close to two hundred thousand Purple Golden Coin, and it had far exceeded the amount of money he had brought with him.
Regarding this, Qi Zhuohao felt very helpless. It seemed like he could only discuss with the higher ups of the Wind Province Auction after this matter was over. He would have to pay on credit first!
"Everyone, the next auction item is a Beast Skin Scroll. This Beast Skin Scroll contains the Qi of all living things, and it has been appraised. It is an item that has been passed down since ancient times. To put it bluntly, it is an item that has been passed down since ancient times. It's a map, but unfortunately, it's broken."
