After encountering Xiao Jinlei at the bidding, he would surely resort to ruthless measures. No matter what, he couldn't let this item fall into Xiao Jinlei's hands.
"Mr. Dongfang, what makes you say that? How could this item fall into Xiao Jinlei's hands? I'm determined to have it." The head of the Mangxiao Household gritted his teeth and called out another bid.
After a fierce bidding war, the head of the Mangxiao Household finally gritted his teeth and offered 1.87 million. Thunder rumbled from Xiao Jinlei's side, and he gave an angry snort, no longer responding.
"It's box number five again. It seems the distinguished guest inside came well prepared today." True Person Sevenstar brought down the hammer, declaring the Profound Yin Divine Essence Liquid sold.
Only after the Profound Yin Divine Essence Liquid was delivered into the private box did the head of the Mangxiao Household finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"Congratulations, Uncle, on obtaining such a treasure," Mangxiao Qingxue said to him.
"This time, I've really taken a heavy hit. It probably won't be so easy to compete for any more treasures later." The head of the Mangxiao Household shook his head, though his face was alight with joy. He carefully put away the bottle of Profound Yin Divine Essence Liquid.
"The third auction item is the Crystal Silkworm Robe. It was woven primarily from silk spun by twelfth-tier crystal silkworms in the ten-thousand-year-old snowy mountains of the far west, with a few strands of thirteenth-tier crystal silkworm silk added. It is a defensive spirit-linking artifact. It does not need to be constantly nurtured; it has been refined using special methods and can be used after a little further refinement. Even a great cultivator would find it difficult to break through its defenses in a short time.
