''Haha, master, this situation has beco quite interesting.'' Little Black said with a look of amusent in his deep blue eyes as he also stared at the silhouette of Murong Tian from the foggy space inside the 'Stone of Ti'.
Nodding his head, Shun Long observed Murong Tian seriously without saying a word.
Indeed, this was sothing extrely unexpected.
At the sa ti, although the experts inside the other private rooms were slightly surprised when they found out that the patriarch of the Murong family had co to bid for the earth fla as well, they rely threw a few more glances at him before they continued to call out their bids.
After all, even though Murong Tian may have been famous within Murong city, in the eyes of those experts who ca from the strongest powers of the northern part of the central region he was only a slightly stronger Dao Emperor. Only experts at the Sovereign realm or higher were enough to warrant Zi Hu's and the others' attention.
''850.000 high-grade spirit stones!''
''900.000!''
''1.000.000 high-grade spirit stones.''
In less than a minute, the price of the earth fla had already gone past the 1 million high-grade spirit stones mark, and yet there were still no signs of it slowing down.
''1 million 200 thousand high-grade spirit stones!'' An old man in luxurious yellow robes suddenly called out from the ordinary seats down below, imdiately attracting everyone's attention.
Even experts like Zhuan Jie and the silver-haired woman from 'White ice city' had turned their attention towards this person, staring at him with so surprise in their eyes.
After all, the people who could afford to call a bid of a million high-grade spirit stones were almost all, renowned Sovereign realm experts.
As for this old man, they could clearly sense that he was just an early rank 9 Dao Emperor, the sa level as Jiang Tianfang.
''Who is this person? He actually dares to bid for the earth fla against the Sovereign realm seniors? Isn't he afraid that he won't be able to keep the earth fla even if he wins the bid?''
''Wait! I have seen this person before! He is the current clan head of the Xi clan!'' A person in the audience seats quickly recognized the yellow-robed old man, as he exclaid in a loud voice a mont later.
''The Xi clan? What kind of clan is that?''
''They are a powerful clan that is no weaker than the Murong family! I have heard that the previous clan leader of the Xi clan and the old ancestor of the Murong family have been rivals for many years. No wonder the current clan head of the Xi clan would co here to fight for the earth fla!'' Another person answered seriously a mont later, as his eyes stared at the clan leader of the Xi clan who was sitting just a few ters away from him.
''1 million 400 hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones!'' The Sovereign realm expert from Lord Zhu's garden, 'senior Xiao' snorted before he said in a cold voice, increasing the price of the earth fla even further.
At the sa ti however, the beautiful silver-haired woman from the 'White ice city' didn't choose to remain silent either, as she called out a mont later
''1 million 500 thousand!''
In just a few monts, the price of the earth fla had reached a staggering 2 million high-grade spirit stones, and it was only then that it finally started to slow down.
At that mont, Jia Guiying took a deep breath and smiled brightly as she looked at the silhouettes of the Sovereign realm experts inside the private rooms, before she said in a clear voice
''Esteed guests, I suggest that you don't miss the chance to obtain this earth fla. Even our 'White tiger chamber of comrce' doesn't get the chance to auction an earth fla very often. Who knows when you will get another chance if you miss this one?''
It was unknown if it was intentional or not, but Jia Guiying's gaze ended up landing on the Sovereign realm expert from the 'Black mist valley' as she said the last sentence.
And yet, Zhuan Jie rely snorted but he didn't choose to bid for the earth fla even after Jia Guiying's attempt to entice him.
After all, the mont that he managed to get his hands on the earth fla, Zhuan Jie knew that Zi Hu would use his 'Soul-locking talisman' to deal with him.
Although an earth fla was valuable, he wasn't going to risk his life for it.
Of course, if there was a chance to get revenge on Zi Hu in the future, there was no way that Zhuan Jie would let it go!
...
10 minutes later, the bids finally stopped, as the experts present all stared at a certain private room with mixed emotions.
Inside his own private room, Murong Tian laughed without restraint as he looked at the purple-colored earth fla on the main stage with a fervent look in his eyes.
After spending 3.4 million high-grade spirit stones, he had finally forced everyone else to concede.
''Tsk, I didn't think that even with more than 3 million high-grade spirit stones I wouldn't be able to secure a single earth fla.'' 'Senior Xiao' clicked his tongue and said in a dissatisfied tone as he stared at Murong Tian.
Clearly, it wasn't that Murong Tian was richer than 'senior Xiao', but that 'senior Xiao' himself wasn't prepared for Murong Tian's involvent.
Naturally, as the patriarch of the Murong family, Murong Tian could take out a much larger amount of spirit stones than 'senior Xiao' could, which was why even though 'senior Xiao' had prepared more than 3 million high-grade spirit stones for the earth fla, it still wasn't enough.
At the sa ti, inside the private room right next to Shun Long's, one of the 3 white-robed won asked the silver-haired woman who was sitting on the couch
''Master, you really don't want to continue bidding? Even the Murong family wouldn't be able to compete with you in terms of wealth, unless their old ancestor personally cos out of his seclusion!''
The beautiful silver-haired woman from the 'White ice city' looked at the purple-colored earth fla on the main stage and shook her head, before she answered in a calm tone
''If it was an earth fla with the elent of ice I would definitely go all-out to obtain it, but an earth fla with the elent of fire isn't worth spending more than 3 million high-grade spirit stones for it. Since the patriarch of the Murong family wants it, I will let him have it. Instead, there is sothing else that I don't understand...''
As she finished speaking, the beautiful silver-haired woman turned her gaze towards the room that was right next to hers with a perplexed look on her face.
She had been certain that the person in the room next to hers had co here for the earth fla as well, but from the mont that the auction of the earth fla begun until it ended, that person didn't even call out a single bid for it.
anwhile, inside his private room, after he stared at Murong Tian with a deep look in his eyes, Shun Long turned his attention towards Jiang Tianfang who was sitting right next to him and said calmly
''Uncle Jiang, let's part ways for now.. If you have ti, you should go visit Jiang Chen and the others in the Northern Sovereign's estate.''
