Hell Demon Dragon Zi JI's words made Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing realize at once that it didn't matter if they had no money on them. They could buy on credit!
As long as the Lin Auction House, or rather Lin Yuan, let them buy on credit, they could bid for the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger Bloodline they had been longing for, then return to the Star Luo Empire to get the money and pay him!
At that thought, Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing were both delighted, and, as if of one mind, fixed their gazes on Lin Yuan.
They stared at Lin Yuan without blinking.
They waited for Lin Yuan to answer Hell Demon Dragon Zi JI's question.
Boss Lin, please let us buy on credit! I want the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger Bloodline so badly, Dai Mubai prayed.
Lin Yuan really had never considered Hell Demon Dragon Zi JI's question.
Without hesitation, Lin Yuan immediately asked the system in his mind, System, can we allow purchases on credit here?
As soon as Lin Yuan asked, the system answered.
A cold, indifferent mechanical voice rang out.
The voice echoed in Lin Yuan's head.
[In answer to the host: yes, purchases on credit are allowed, but rules must be established.] [Only with proper rules can the auction house be maintained in the long run.] [The rules are as follows.] [If a guest wishes to buy on credit and the final price of the lot they bid on is two million Gold Soul Coins, they must first pay six hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins, or thirty percent, as a deposit, then pay the remaining Gold Soul Coins within seven days. If they fail to pay in full, they will not receive the lot, and the deposit will not be refunded. Only after paying in full can they take away the lot they wanted and bid on.]
Having received the system's answer, Lin Yuan immediately spoke, repeating the rules the system had given him to Hell Demon Dragon Zi JI.
When they learned that Lin Yuan allowed purchases on credit, Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing, and Hell Demon Dragon Zi JI were delighted.
I can buy on credit?
Then the Dark Demon Evil God Bloodline is mine!
As Dai Mubai thought this to himself, he felt more confident than ever.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Dai Mubai.
Even if he could buy on credit, the few thousand Gold Soul Coins he had on him didn't seem to be enough.
If he didn't have enough Gold Soul Coins, could he pawn something, just as the Snow Empress had pawned her Soul Bones?
With that thought, Dai Mubai began to consider what he could pawn for Gold Soul Coins.
After thinking it over, Dai Mubai noticed Zhu Zhuqing.
The moment he noticed Zhu Zhuqing, another flash of inspiration struck him.
What if I pawn Zhu Zhuqing for Gold Soul Coins?
Just like I joked about yesterday?
I could do that.
At worst, once I get back to the Star Luo Empire and get the Gold Soul Coins, I can come back and redeem Zhu Zhuqing.
Dai Mubai nodded.
That's what I'll do!
Dai Mubai believed Zhu Zhuqing would understand him.
At that moment, Zhu Zhuqing still didn't know that her fiancé, Dai Mubai, had sold her off. She was still trying to work out how many Gold Soul Coins and valuable items she had on her, and whether they would be enough, together with what Dai Mubai had, to bid for the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger Bloodline on credit.
"Boss Lin, I have some Soul Bones here too. Sorry for the trouble, but could you see how many Gold Soul Coins they're worth and pawn them for me?"
With that, Hell Demon Dragon Zi JI took dozens of Soul Bones out of the Storage Soul Tool she carried with her.
Every one of those Soul Bones was a dragon bone. The oldest was sixty thousand years old, and the youngest was over two thousand years old.
Those Soul Bones all belonged to Hell Demon Dragon Zi JI's kin. After they died, some of them had produced Soul Bones. Because she missed them and didn't want to forget them, Hell Demon Dragon Zi JI had collected their Soul Bones and carried them with her.
Hell Demon Dragon Zi JI really had never imagined that one day she would have a use for the bones of her kin.
So be it. My kin, lend me, Zi JI, a hand and let me obtain the Dark Dragon King's essence blood!
Zi JI was a true dragon who already wielded the power of the darkness element.
Zi JI believed that with the boost from the Dark Dragon King Essence Blood, she would surely be like a tiger with wings and become even stronger!
Zi JI's sudden decision to pawn her Soul Bones for Gold Soul Coins caught the Scarlet King beside her off guard.
The Scarlet King had just asked Zi JI by voice transmission whether she had any Soul Bones on her.
Zi JI had said no at the time.
How come she suddenly had some now?
"What a selfish woman," the Scarlet King's left dog head transmitted to the other two.
"She certainly is selfish," the Scarlet King's right dog head replied by voice transmission.
System, how many Gold Soul Coins are they worth? Once again, Lin Yuan spoke to the system in his mind.
[One three-thousand-year-old Blazing Fire Earth Dragon spine bone, worth thirty thousand Gold Soul Coins.] [One six-thousand-year-old Azure Dragon left leg bone, worth sixty thousand Gold Soul Coins.] [One ten-thousand-year-old Thunder Dragon right arm bone, worth one hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins.] ... [Total value: 8,000,000 Gold Soul Coins!]
"Eight million Gold Soul Coins," Lin Yuan said, quoting Zi JI the price.
"Eight million? That feels a little low. Forget it, eight million it is. I'll start with two million Gold Soul Coins." Just like Ning Fengzhi before her, Zi JI raised the bid by a full million Gold Soul Coins as soon as she spoke.
Without even blinking, Bibi Dong bid again. Like Zi JI, she spoke casually. "Three million Gold Soul Coins!"
"Three million one hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins." Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen's bid was almost perfunctory.
"Three million five hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins," Bibi Dong continued.
"Three million six hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins." With Ning Fengzhi's help, Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen matched the bid with remarkable speed. The moment Bibi Dong finished speaking, he opened his mouth and made his bid.
"Four million Gold Soul Coins!" Bibi Dong's face was expressionless.
"Four million one hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins." Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen continued to match her bid.
"Five million one hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins!" Right after Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen, Hell Demon Dragon Zi JI bid again. Just as before, she raised the price by a million Gold Soul Coins in a single bid.
After making her bid, Hell Demon Dragon Zi JI addressed Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen and Spider Emperor Douluo Bibi Dong. "You two, don't compete with me. Neither of you can hope to outbid me. I have the Great Ferocious Land behind me, and the Soul Bones I brought out are only a fraction of what the Great Ferocious Land has. I can simply buy on credit here, then go back and fetch Soul Bones to settle the payment. As for you, you can keep bidding, but if you bid too high and I suddenly give up, don't blame me if you don't have enough Gold Soul Coins to pay."
Hell Demon Dragon Zi JI's words made the Soul Masters extremely curious.
"The Great Ferocious Land? What kind of place is that? Yue Guan, have you heard of it?" Bibi Dong asked Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan by voice transmission.
"In answer to Your Holiness, I don't know. I've never heard of it," Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan answered Bibi Dong without hesitation.
"The Great Ferocious Land. I wonder where that Soul Beast habitat is." Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen gazed at Hell Demon Dragon Zi JI, very curious.
Just then, Lin Yuan suddenly spoke with a smile. "More guests have arrived? The current lot is a drop of the Dark Dragon King's essence blood. It is extremely beneficial to Beast Martial Soul owners and Soul Beasts. I wonder if our guests are interested in participating in the auction?"
Indeed, late guests had arrived.
The instant Bibi Dong sensed the arrivals, her pupils contracted sharply.
