On-Site Bidding, A Lively Auction

Fei Bin was split in half by a single saber strike.

Blood gushed out, instantly dyeing the ground red, and his internal organs spilled out onto the ground.

This bloody and terrifying scene was incredibly impactful.

A brief silence fell over the courtyard.

Immediately after, Liu Zhengfeng and all the members of the Liu family's faces lit up with surprise and joy.

Su Chen's ability to kill Fei Bin, a Minor Grandmaster, with one saber strike demonstrated immense power.

The stronger Su Chen was, the greater the chance that his family would survive the Mount Song Sect's clutches today.

They were naturally overjoyed to have a chance at survival.

All the Liu family members looked at Su Chen with hopeful eyes.

They hoped this powerful swordsman would strike again and kill Ding Mian and Lu Bai.

At the same time, the onlookers in the courtyard felt a wave of dread.

Fei Bin, the Great Songyang Hand, one of the Mount Song Sect's Three Protectors, a master at the mid-stage of the Minor Grandmaster realm, had been cut in half by this suddenly appearing swordsman.

How strong could this swordsman be?

Someone at the Minor Grandmaster realm likely couldn't do it; perhaps only a Grandmaster could.

Among them, Yue Buqun, Abbess Dingyi, and Daoist Tianmen, who had all heard of Su Chen's existence before, were even more shocked.

Previously, they had heard of Su Chen's terrifying feats of killing Yu Canghai and Tian Boguang.

They already knew Su Chen was an extremely powerful expert.

But that was just hearsay; they had never seen it with their own eyes.

Now, seeing it firsthand, they felt Su Chen's strength was terrifyingly abnormal and chilling.

Especially Yue Buqun, who looked at Fei Bin's corpse and felt a strange sense of satisfaction.

Over the years, while managing the Mount Hua Sect, he had often been suppressed by the Mount Song Sect and Zuo Lengchan.

Unfortunately, his strength was insufficient, and he was no match for Zuo Lengchan.

Although he was angry, for the sake of the Mount Hua Sect's survival, he could only swallow his pride and dare not act out.

Now, seeing the Mount Song Sect lose one of its Protectors, Yue Buqun felt so good he could almost fly.

If the occasion had been more appropriate, he would have loved to shout out loud.

Unlike Liu Zhengfeng and the others who were secretly pleased, Ding Mian and Lu Bai were filled with immense rage.

This black-clothed swordsman was truly detestable.

Not only had he caused them to lose face, but he had also cruelly killed their junior brother.

This hatred had reached a point of no return.

When had the people of Mount Song ever suffered such humiliation?

Ding Mian and Lu Bai's hearts burned with hatred, and they stared intently at Su Chen, wishing they could rush forward and tear him to shreds.

However, when they thought of Su Chen's terrifying saber energy just moments ago, they both wilted.

It wasn't that they didn't want to fight Su Chen, but Su Chen's strength was too great.

If it were them, even using a sneak attack, they couldn't have killed Fei Bin in one move.

Perhaps only if Zuo Lengchan himself had acted could it have been possible.

Therefore, they could only suppress the hatred and anger in their hearts and dared not act rashly.

However, while they didn't move, Su Chen did not stop.

He just wanted to quickly kill Ding Mian and Lu Bai, and then take the silver from Liu Zhengfeng.

Liu Zhengfeng had just said he was willing to hand over a hundred thousand taels of silver in cash.

That was a hundred thousand taels of silver! Su Chen couldn't even imagine how rich he would become from this haul.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, to the point where his hand holding the saber trembled slightly.

Then, his gaze sharpened, and he raised his ring-pommel saber, charging towards Ding Mian and Lu Bai.

Seeing this god of slaughter, Su Chen, charging at them again, Ding Mian and Lu Bai felt a chill run down their spines, and their hearts were filled with panic.

Ding Mian quickly said, "Great Hero, please stop! This matter can be discussed..."

However, Su Chen never wasted words during combat.

He knew well the principle that villains die from talking too much.

Therefore, he had always adhered to the creed of "Any words can wait until after I've killed you."

Adhering to this creed, Su Chen raised his hand and swung his saber, directly at Ding Mian's throat, forcefully cutting off the words he was about to say.

"Damn it, why doesn't this guy follow the rules of the jianghu? He won't even give me a chance to speak," Ding Mian cursed inwardly, feeling incredibly stifled.

But he was helpless and could only grit his teeth and raise his sword to resist.

However, he had already lost his courage, his martial spirit dampened. When fighting, his combat power was bound to be significantly reduced.

Therefore, even though Ding Mian possessed the cultivation of the late Minor Grandmaster stage, a level higher than Su Chen, he was still being pushed back by Su Chen's relentless barrage of attacks. He was clearly on the verge of collapse.

Lu Bai, standing nearby, seized the opportunity to speak, "Great hero, do you still remember the deal we discussed at Tingsong Pavilion? We agreed, we're willing to pay..."

"Oh?"

Hearing Lu Bai mention payment, Su Chen's offensive finally eased slightly.

Having transmigrated to this world, Su Chen was alone.

Fame and status were merely fleeting clouds to him, and beautiful women were but ephemeral phantoms.

The only thing he truly cared about was silver.

Now that Lu Bai indicated a willingness to pay, Su Chen didn't mind giving them a chance to speak.

After all, competition breeds motivation.

If Lu Bai and Liu Zhengfeng started bidding, it would definitely allow him to squeeze out more silver.

Of course, to be safe, Su Chen decided to incapacitate Ding Mian first, rendering him unable to fight before discussing prices, lest he suffer a setback.

With that, he focused his mind and channeled the true qi within his body.

Instantly, the true qi accumulated in his meridians surged like a mighty river.

It all condensed onto the ring-pommel saber, and then he unleashed a single strike.

Under the terrifying slash, Ding Mian was sent flying several dozen feet away, crashing heavily onto the ground.

Although not dead, he was unable to move and posed no further threat.

Only then did Su Chen stop, leaning on the ring-pommel saber, and look at Lu Bai, "Speak, how much are you willing to pay?"

Lu Bai's brow furrowed, "You..."

He had clearly stated his willingness to pay, yet Su Chen still moved to heavily injure Ding Mian. This made Lu Bai furious.

Su Chen looked at Lu Bai playfully, "Me? What about me? If you spout more nonsense, you'll lose your chance."

Hearing this, Lu Bai's breathing hitched, and he broke out in a cold sweat.

He finally realized that the current situation did not allow for his anger.

Therefore, he forced a smile, "Great hero, please calm your anger. I am willing to pay one hundred thousand taels of silver."

Upon hearing the price of one hundred thousand taels, Su Chen's brow furrowed slightly.

Liu Zhengfeng had already bid one hundred thousand taels of silver.

He had expected Lu Bai to raise the price, but instead, he only offered one hundred thousand taels.

This made things difficult.

"It seems you're not particularly eager to live," Su Chen said coldly, then picked up the ring-pommel saber, preparing to attack again.

This sent Lu Bai into a panic.

He quickly retreated a few steps, saying as he retreated, "We'll increase the price, we're willing to increase the price..."

However, before he could finish speaking, Liu Zhengfeng's voice rang out from the other side.

"Lord Su, I am also willing to increase the price. I only ask that you quickly kill Lu Bai and the others."

Damn it, if he had a chance to survive, how could he let Lu Bai and the others buy it?

"You good-for-nothing Liu Zhengfeng, you're increasing the price, right? I'm increasing it too..." Lu Bai shouted loudly.

Watching the two of them go back and forth, arguing loudly.

Yue Buqun, Abbess Dingyi, and the other onlookers were all stunned.

What was this? Weren't they supposed to be fighting a battle to destroy a sect, a martial arts clash? How did it suddenly turn into a marketplace?
