My Spirit Hall's Strength Was Not Necessarily Weak!!!
As everyone examined the pills, Xu Xin, wearing the Tara Mask, and Dugu Bo, wearing the Lazo Mask, slowly emerged from the back.
"Hall Master, hurry up and finish this. I need to go back and hold my granddaughter."
Dugu Bo spoke resentfully. Since his granddaughter had been born, he had only held her for a single week. It was nowhere near enough.
Xu Xin smiled helplessly and nodded in agreement. Dugu Bo's life was now complete; he no longer had anything left to pursue.
But when Dugu Bo spotted Chrysanthemum Douluo beside Bibi Dong, his interest was immediately piqued.
Old chrysanthemum!
Heh heh heh...
"Hall Master, I ran into an old acquaintance." Dugu Bo's voice carried an odd emphasis that ordinary people would not have noticed.
Xu Xin followed his gaze. Chrysanthemum Douluo?
So that was it. Who knew what grudge the two of them had.
"No matter. Deal with him later if you want, but let me remind you—without your mask, you're no match for Ju Hua Guan." Xu Xin said leisurely.
"Not a problem. That guy bullied me for so long. It's about time I got my pride back."
Dugu Bo gave a sleazy grin, his voice sounding exceptionally eerie.
Looking at the crowd below, Xu Xin slowly spoke. "Welcome, everyone, to the pill sale hosted by my Shadow Hall."
"I assume you have all seen the pills below."
"Other than the Mysterious Water Pill, all other pills may be purchased without limit."
"As for the Mysterious Water Pill, it will be acquired through auction."
Wearing the Tara Mask, Xu Xin's voice was also strangely layered. The moment it rang out, everyone turned their eyes toward him above.
"Hmph, a fellow hiding his head and showing his tail!" Yu Yuanzhen snorted coldly.
"What? Do you people really believe these pills are real?"
Yu Yuanzhen spoke with disdain, sweeping a cold gaze over those around him.
Everyone present represented major powers. Could they really believe this? Were they all that foolish?
"I do!"
Ning Fengzhi was the first to speak.
The Clear Sky Sect's First Elder also nodded slightly. How could they not believe it? Those two prodigal sons of their Clear Sky Sect had personally spent four million Golden Soul Coins to verify it. How could they possibly not believe it?
"Sect Master Yu, your words are rather strange. Shadow Hall's pills were auctioned at our Heaven Dou Auction House. As for their effects, I imagine the Clear Sky Sect has the most to say on the matter."
Prince Xue Xing pointed toward the Clear Sky Sect and smiled at them. That was some fine support I gave you, wasn't it?
The Clear Sky Sect's First Elder said nothing, merely nodding. What a Heaven Dou Imperial Family—truly bringing up whichever pot refused to boil.
Yu Yuanzhen was stunned. Could it actually be true?
If that was the case, then the effects of that Mysterious Water Pill... then... then... Xiao Gang!
I must obtain this. For Yu Xiao Gang's sake, I must obtain it!
Xu Xin noticed Yu Yuanzhen's change and then looked toward Bibi Dong. It seemed he would have to let Bibi Dong lend a hand.
With a crafty smile, Xu Xin knew Yu Yuanzhen was about to suffer.
Clearly, the greatest beneficiary of the Mysterious Water Pill within the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect would be Trash Gang, and Trash Gang was Yu Yuanzhen's son. With such a wonderful opportunity right before him, how could Yu Yuanzhen not be tempted?
His gaze shifted. "Shadow Hall Master, begin the auction for the final Mysterious Water Pill directly."
The moment they heard Yu Yuanzhen's words, everyone understood the reason. He was probably doing this for that foolish son of his.
"Fengzhi, should we do that old dragon a favor later?" Sword Douluo transmitted his voice.
Ning Fengzhi did not answer, only nodding. The Upper Three Sects were linked by common breath and shared branches. Now that a new power had appeared, they naturally needed to stand together even more.
The Clear Sky Sect's First Elder felt the same way. He immediately transmitted his voice to Tang Xiao and Tang Hao: if Yu Yuanzhen wished to contend for the pill, let him have it first. Do not compete with him.
Star Luo and Heaven Dou were the same, seemingly having no intention of competing for it.
Why not take this chance to do the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect a favor?
Only Bibi Dong sneered inwardly. It seemed these people intended to join forces and obtain that Mysterious Water Pill.
"That old dragon Yu Yuanzhen is definitely doing this for that piece of trash."
"With my Spirit Hall here, that piece of trash can forget about making a comeback!!"
Bibi Dong sneered inwardly. After returning to Spirit Hall, she had investigated everything thoroughly. Given the current situation, how could she not know what was going on?
Not to mention that the Upper Three Sects were linked by common breath and shared branches. As the Holy Maiden, she had even more reason to stop them.
As she thought this, Bibi Dong glanced at Xu Xin above. At that exact moment, Xu Xin met her gaze.
In an instant, the two reached an understanding.
"Is that what the rest of you think as well?"
Xu Xin's voice rang out slowly as his gaze swept over the crowd below. In any case, the purpose this time was to make money and bring the Shadow Hall into everyone's sight.
"Shadow Hall Master, auction the Mysterious Water Pill first."
Everyone spoke in unison.
"Since all the sect masters and elders have requested it, we'll auction the Mysterious Water Pill first. As for the pills to come later, if you need them, you may purchase them from us."
Xu Xin spoke calmly, not at all surprised. In the current Douluo Continent, even a single person with Innate Full Spirit Power was rare, while those with Innate Soul Power at level seven or eight were already considered geniuses.
Now, however, the appearance of the Mysterious Water Pill would break that pattern. For those with low Innate Soul Power, it could increase their Innate Soul Power.
Even for those with Innate Full Spirit Power, it could grant an additional level of soul power below level twenty. Getting ahead at the starting line—why not?
"Place your bids!"
"Oh, right. For the next two years, the Mysterious Water Pill will not be sold publicly. It will only be available through auctions."
Xu Xin spoke casually. There was no starting price, but that did not matter.
"Five hundred thousand Golden Soul Coins. Don't compete with me, everyone. There will be more auctions later anyway."
Yu Yuanzhen spoke smugly as he looked around. The pressure of a Title Douluo instantly bore down on them, like a warning.
The others wisely refrained from bidding, seemingly giving Yu Yuanzhen all the respect he deserved.
After waiting for a while with no further bids, Yu Yuanzhen was quite satisfied. It seemed they were still more than willing to give the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect face.
"Wait. Spirit Hall bids one million Golden Soul Coins." Bibi Dong spoke slowly, and everyone turned to look at the three people seated at the very back.
"Hmph!"
Yu Yuanzhen snorted coldly. "One million five hundred thousand Golden Soul Coins."
Yu Yuanzhen's gaze grew increasingly icy. Damn Spirit Hall!
"Three million Golden Soul Coins!" Bibi Dong's crisp voice rang out. It did not matter—she only wanted to make him unhappy. Money was nothing.
"Hmph. If you have the nerve, keep bidding. Five million Golden Soul Coins!"
"This Mysterious Water Pill is something the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect is determined to obtain."
Yu Yuanzhen's expression was grim. For the sake of his son, he did not care about such things. As long as his son could break through, it would all be worth it.
Over the years, every time he saw Yu Xiao Gang like that, his heart ached. But as the sect master, he had no choice but to harden his heart. Now that an opportunity had finally appeared, how could he let it slip away?!
Bibi Dong: "Six million!"
Yu Yuanzhen: "Eight million!"
Bibi Dong: "Eight million one hundred thousand!"
"Eight million two hundred thousand!"
"Eight million four hundred thousand!!"
"Nine million! Bibi Dong, if your Spirit Hall bids any higher!"
"Do you want a taste of the might of my lightning?!"
With a dark expression, Yu Yuanzhen roared at Bibi Dong. He was determined to obtain this pill. Who knew when the second one would appear? The sooner he got it, the sooner his son could recover.
Besides, Yu Yuanzhen had long been displeased with Spirit Hall.
Hmph, admit defeat? Impossible.
The Upper Three Sects were bound together by common cause. So what if they offended Spirit Hall?
"Hehehe!"
"Hmph, the strength of Spirit Hall is not to be underestimated either!!"
With a boom, the soul power of two Title Douluo pressed down on them!
Bibi Dong snorted coldly, refusing to give an inch. If she did not gouge this old dragon today, she would be letting herself down!!
That trash Yu Xiao Gang was better off remaining trash.
For a moment, the bidding turned utterly tense.
