"Damn it! I bid forty billion!" Great Gong Diamond choked at those words, then suddenly roared in fury.
"Oh!" The cultivators cried out in astonishment. This was spectacular, well worth the price of admission! Forty billion spirit stones equaled more than a decade of income for a medium-sized sect. How could they not be stunned? Although these Nascent Soul Realm cultivators all looked wealthy and extravagant, quite a few had brought more than half their sects' wealth with them, hoping to acquire a few exceptional treasures to serve as their sects' cornerstone treasures!
"Wow! So ten-thousand-year spirit milk is worth that much!" Li Xiaoya and the others were inwardly dumbfounded as well. Li Xiaoya exclaimed in surprise as he looked at the bottle of ten-thousand-year spirit milk onstage. It was about the same size as the one he had delivered to Black Qilin on Heavenly Venerable Daoling's behalf, yet such a tiny bottle was this precious?
Liu Xian'er's expression shifted several times at the sight. Suddenly, she looked at Fairy Qingxia behind the stage and sighed inwardly. I always thought Master and the others placed far too much importance on Li Xiaoya. I never imagined I'd been treated so well myself. The ten-thousand-year spirit milk I've used amounts to at least that little bottle!
"A-1 bids forty billion!" Although Heavenly Venerable Daoling remained composed on the surface, he was secretly delighted. This had clearly exceeded the sect's estimate.
"I bid forty-two billion!" the languid voice said.
"You! Ghost Sword! You're deliberately making trouble, aren't you?" Great Gong Diamond roared angrily. His voice made the entire hall tremble faintly. His name was certainly no empty boast.
"Not at all, Loudmouth!" The languid voice turned serious. "I'm not like you. Our Demonic Sword Sect has no ties with the Heavenly Dao Sect.
