"Hehe, brother Zhao, you jest."
At this moment, Luo Jiusi reined in his expression. With his shrewdness, how could he let others think he was targeting Zhao Chen?
Besides, he was not prepared to openly fall out with Zhao Chen just yet.
He still wanted to win the other man over and use him to deal with Duan Yusheng.
Judging by how Zhao Chen had handled the Eagle King, he was clearly not easy to deal with.
Since force would not work, he would obviously have to resort to diplomacy.
"This Yellow Springs Demonic Water fetched 2.2 million source crystals at auction. For someone hosting an auction for the first time, that truly is a brilliant achievement."
Luo Jiusi's thoughts were clear as he said with a smile, "Please forgive my display, brother Zhao and everyone else. This Yellow Springs Demonic Water shall belong to brother Zhao!"
After all, the Eagle King had fallen silent.
If he still did not hand it over to Zhao Chen, people would likely begin to suspect that he had some special connection with the Eagle King.
If he didn't give it to Zhao Chen, others would probably speculate that he had a special relationship with the Eagle King.
Although he had caused Zhao Chen some trouble,
his own reputation had practically been ruined as well.
From this moment on, whenever he was mentioned,
people would inevitably recall his performance at the auction.
He had repeatedly spoken in such a sarcastic, mocking tone,
wanting to ridicule others for not having enough source crystals to participate in the auction.
Yet before Zhao Chen's 2.2 million source crystals, he, the young master of the Demon Eagle Organization, had been the first to admit defeat!
"Damn Zhao Chen! If I don't kill you, I swear I'm not human!"
