Chapter 198 How about I make you as quiet as it is?
In an instant, the price of the Nine-Turn Glazed Lamp had reached 100 million high-grade spirit stones.
The bidding price has also been changed from the original starting price of 100,000 to the starting price of 10 million.
"Five hundred million." Bei Yan'an raised the price again.
A brief silence fell over the room. Five hundred million high-grade spirit stones—that was something they couldn't possibly afford...
But there are still those who are unwilling to give up, because this is a once-in-a-lifetime artifact! If you miss this opportunity, it will be almost impossible to encounter it again.
"Five hundred and ten million."
Someone else made another offer.
"Six hundred million," Bei Yan'an said calmly.
"Six hundred and ten million." Someone gritted their teeth and continued to bid.
"One billion." Bei Yan'an raised the price again.
Some people realized that the people in that private room were determined to get their hands on this artifact, and began to try to raise the price further.
If they can't have it, then let those who can have it pay a hefty price!
Before they could offer any more bids, Bei Yan'an said, "I'll set the price here. If you can offer a higher price, then it's yours."
Upon hearing this, no one dared to bid anymore; they simply couldn't afford ten billion high-grade spirit stones!
Moreover, before the auction began, no one knew that there would be a divine artifact among the auction items. Although the other items were rare, they were not enough to attract everyone's attention.
Perhaps someone can surpass Bei Yan'an in terms of wealth, but such a person is not present at this auction.
The price of one billion high-grade spirit stones was the most suitable price chosen by Bei Yan'an, who knew the approximate financial resources of everyone present.
"One billion high-grade spirit stones at a time!"
"Ten billion high-grade spirit stones twice!"
"Ten billion high-grade spirit stones three times!"
"Auction sold!"
Seeing that the transaction was successfully completed, Jingyou silently breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, his junior sister's father was rich enough.
"Jingyou?" Seeing Jingyou's relieved expression, He Hao tentatively asked, "The person who won the bid for the artifact, was he your friend?"
"What does it have to do with you!"
Jingyou took out a white porcelain bottle and threw it at He Hao, saying, "How easy is it to die? He Hao, you'd better stay alive!"
After saying that, Jingyou left the private room without looking back, making sure to close the door behind him.
However, the door slammed shut with a lot of force...
He Hao stared blankly at the porcelain bottle in his hand, not even noticing when Xia Qing had come in.
"Senior Brother He... are you alright?" Xia Qing asked cautiously.
The main problem is that He Hao looks terrifying right now. There's a clear handprint on his right cheek, and blood is coming from the corner of his mouth. He's staring at a bottle like he's in a daze.
"I'm sorry, Senior Brother He... I might not have been thinking clearly at the time, and when I saw Fellow Daoist Jingyou, I blurted out everything..." Xia Qing said guiltily.
She thought that doing this would ease the tension in their relationship. But now it seems their relationship has gotten even worse...
"It's alright, no need to apologize." He Hao smiled, his eyes filled with gratitude as he looked at Xia Qing.
"Thank you, Junior Sister Xia."
"Ah? Oh, oh... You're welcome..."
When Jingyou returned, the people from Jinyi Trading Company had just delivered the Nine-Turn Glazed Lamp.
"Xiao You, what did you go out to do?" Gu Meng asked curiously as she approached Jing You.
"Just going to see an acquaintance. By the way, how did this suddenly become a magical artifact?"
Jingyou poked the Nine-Turn Glass Lamp, but there was no reaction.
Shi Chuan was also somewhat puzzled, "As a divine artifact, where is the spirit of this one?"
Ji Chen's Azure Light Cauldron is so active, so why is this Nine-Turn Glazed Lamp so lifeless and unresponsive?
"Could it be fake?" Bei Yuze asked.
"Little brat! Who are you calling a fake?!" A clear, melodious female voice came from the Nine-Turn Glazed Lamp.
Immediately afterwards, a figure the size of a palm emerged from the Nine-Turn Glazed Lamp, its bare feet lightly touching the lamp.
Wearing a white dress, with long silver hair that reached her toes, each strand radiating a faint glow, the woman slowly opened her eyes, revealing a pair of mysterious and deep silver eyes.
Her gaze was cold and indifferent, as if nothing in the world could stir a ripple in her heart. It's just a pity...
"That old geezer sold me off as a low-grade magic weapon, and the auction price was so low! If I hadn't woken up early and shown you the splendor of this divine artifact, I would have really been sold off as an ordinary magic weapon!" The Nine-Turn Glazed Lamp crossed its arms and cursed.
The crowd was stunned for a moment by the stark contrast.
The Nine-Turn Glazed Lamp seemed completely oblivious, and arrogantly asked, "Which of you bid for me?"
Bei Yan'an stepped forward. "It's me."
The Nine-Turn Glazed Lamp glanced up and down at Bei Yan'an. "That's a real pity, you've lost out big time!"
The Nine-Turn Glazed Lamp arrogantly raised its chin, "This divine artifact looks down on you and is unwilling to acknowledge you as its master. However, if you are willing to serve me sincerely, I can reluctantly accept it."
Everyone: "..."
They finally understood why that person had sold it. If a divine artifact is extremely unwilling to recognize a master, no one can force it. Besides, this Nine-Turn Glazed Lamp has such a bad temper!
Bei Yan'an spoke again, "I only need you to help me break the illusion. After it's done, I can agree to any conditions you propose, as long as they're not too unreasonable."
"Oh~ so you have something to ask of this divine artifact~" The Nine-Turn Glazed Lamp raised an eyebrow slightly.
“That makes things even easier! I want all of you to be my servants. If you keep me happy, I’ll be willing to help you with this favor.”
Upon hearing this, Jingyou clenched his fists, and even Han Luo, who had initially found the Nine-Turn Glazed Lamp quite interesting, couldn't help but frown slightly.
Isn't this amazing device a bit... asking for trouble...?
Jing Shu walked straight to the Nine-Turn Glazed Lamp, summoned the Rising Sun Pen and pointed it directly at the spirit, and smiled, "If you don't appreciate my kindness, I don't mind using other methods."
The nascent soul emerged from the ancient jade, turned its back to the crowd, and gave the Nine-Turn Glazed Lamp a wicked smile. "How about I turn you into someone as quiet and obedient as it?"
This little brat is really asking for trouble! He dares to make his master and the others his servants!
Nine-Turn Glazed Lamp's mind went blank, and then his body began to tremble uncontrollably.
What's going on? Why is it scared?
The Nine-Turn Glazed Lamp didn't understand why its body was like this, but its instinct told it not to provoke the person in front of it!
Just as the Nine-Turn Glazed Lamp suppressed the fear in his heart, he noticed the pen in the hand of the person in front of him and stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
This pen is also a magical tool!
Where is its intelligence?!
Where does its purity originate?!
Can it still be considered a magical artifact...?
