A Hundred Billion Divine Crystals!

For him, reputation is the most important thing.

Those who have reached this point may have selfish motives, but these motives are limited; otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to rise to the top echelons of the empire.

But then again, who isn't selfish? That's just human nature.

"You can handle it as you see fit," Lin Xiaotian said softly.

The refined-looking middle-aged man nodded. "I will inform the higher-ups, but this will take time. They also need to weigh the options. Some things can't be done just like that, as you know."

"Hmm." Lin Xiaotian nodded.

"Teacher, please take care of yourself. I'll be leaving now." The refined middle-aged man said with a smile, and then disappeared from Lin Xiaotian's sight.

Lin Xiaotian watched the middle-aged man disappear, then took a sip of the wine. "Turbulent times indeed."

Night fell.

Su Ye went directly to the Imperial Auction House.

Led by a beautiful woman in a cheongsam, Su Ye arrived at a room from which he could see the entire auction hall. There was also a floating projection in front of him, allowing him to see the items being auctioned up close.

Inside the room, several tall and beautiful maids dressed in cheongsams with their legs spread wide were already waiting. The one in the lead had a bright and generous smile on her face, "Mr. Su, my name is Yaya. Please allow me to introduce the items to be auctioned to you."

Su Ye looked at Yaya in front of him. She was 1.76 meters tall with an impeccable figure, with everything in the right places. The smile on her face was genuine and even made people feel good about her.

"The Imperial Auction House offers such services? What about them?" Su Ye asked, looking at the others behind Yaya.

"Mr. Su, you are a valued Diamond member of our Auction House. They can do whatever they want, including anything, and you don't need to pay anything," Yaya said softly.

"And you?" Su Ye asked with a smile, looking at Yaya who was talking eloquently.

Hearing Su Ye's words, Yaya's smile remained unchanged, "I can do that too, but it will be very expensive."

"How expensive?" Su Ye asked, looking at Yaya with great interest.

"One hundred million Origin Crystal," Yaya said with a smile.

"Hmm?" Su Ye looked at Yaya, wondering if it was inlaid with gold or diamonds.

But then I realized that he was just the leader, and that price was ultimately meant to refuse people; it was like a goldfish, not a wooden fish!

"Alright, then you can introduce me to them later," Su Ye said with a smile. He then sat down on the sofa, and several girls in cheongsams surrounded him and began to serve Su Ye.

"What an enviable... and despicable capitalist lifestyle," Su Ye thought to himself as he enjoyed the professional massage.

Yaya watched the scene unfold before her with an unchanged expression. This wasn't the first time something like this had happened; for these wealthy people, there was no shortage of entertainment and extravagance.

As time passed, the auction was about to begin.

"Yaya, are these kinds of auctions held every day?" Su Ye asked Yaya, looking at the auction in front of him.

"Yes, there's one every day," Yaya said with a smile, then explained to Su Ye.

"There are many lords in the empire, and people acquire treasures every day. Since they don't trust other Auction House, they basically entrust their items to the Imperial Auction House for auction, so there are always new ones every day."

"The only difference lies in whether the treasures auctioned today can tempt some important figures. Mr. Su, the Faith Statue Blueprint you auctioned are something that would tempt the entire Lord World," Yaya said softly.

"I see." Su Ye nodded, indicating that he understood.

Su Ye didn't know how many lords the empire had. Not only did they exist in the Main World, but empires also had territories and domains in other worlds.

Not to mention interstellar travel.

The number of good things obtained every day is countless, and the number of items auctioned off is even greater.

It's normal to have one auction every day. This is just the Auction House in Imperial Capital; what about its branches in other cities?

"Mr. Su's first auction item has been announced; it's Strange Crystal obtained by an anonymous lord!" Yaya said softly.

Upon hearing Yaya's words, Su Ye's expression froze, and he looked at the Strange Crystal: "Going all out with the first item?"

"If Mr. Su is interested, he can also participate in the bidding," Yaya said with a smile.

"Forget it, I don't need this thing, it's useless to me," Su Ye said, shaking his head with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Did the empire even realize the dangers of this thing? Did it know, or did it not?

Su Ye felt that the Empire probably knew about it; after all, there were many capable people in the Empire, so it wasn't surprising that they knew. But why would they bid on something so harmful if they already knew about it?

Su Ye was momentarily confused as to whether the empire knew or not.

The items auctioned next were even more dazzling to Su Ye, including Demi-Artifact, Divine Artifact, and even the World Heart, among other things.

As time went by.

An hour is about to pass, and the auction is coming to an end. The main event of the day is about to begin.

A beautiful woman in a cheongsam walked onto the auction stage, and an Old Gu blueprint floated in the air.

"I am Linger, the host of this auction. I believe you all know what the highlight of Heavenly Emperor Auction is. Linger won't waste any more time. Before me is the Faith Statue Blueprint, which is hailed as the key to godhood and the foundation for godhood."

"Starting bid: 10 million Divine Crystal. Each bid must be at least 1 million. Bidding begins now!!"

As Linger's voice faded away.

The auction hall fell silent!

With the first sign raised.

"Number 76 offered 20 million."

"Number 88 bid for forty million."

"Number 96 offered 80 million."

Every time Linger's voice rang out, it was accompanied by a surge of tens of millions of Divine Crystal.

As time passed, Su Ye looked at the Faith Statue Blueprint being auctioned with a smile on his lips.

"Number 8 has bid 1 billion! Anyone else bidding? 1 billion for the first time, 1 billion for the second time!"

"Number 9 has offered two billion!"

The bidding became increasingly fierce. Su Ye lay on the sofa watching the auction unfold. "Divine Crystal! These aren't Origin Crystal! One of these is worth ten thousand Origin Crystal!"

The final transaction price was 10 billion Divine Crystal.

It was bought by customer number 7.

This price is already quite high, but acceptable. After all, it's only Key to Godhood, not a guarantee of godhood; it also depends on one's own abilities. This price is already the limit.

However, buying an opportunity to become a god for 10 billion Divine Crystal isn't expensive.

"Congratulations, Mr. Su," Yaya said with a smile.

"Hahaha." Su Ye burst into laughter, looking like a nouveau riche.

"I'm in a good mood today, so I'll reward you all with 10,000 Origin Crystal each," Su Ye said with a smile.
