The bid amount did not increase further, and a flashing red box appeared on the virtual screen, the meaning of which was unknown, and there was a sudden knock on the door.

A small window quickly pops up in the lower right corner of the screen, the formulaic voice of the auction house staff.

"Distinguished guest, there is a guest from the VIP room who wants to see you, he claims to be a subordinate of the Flame Ghost Emperor, do you want to receive you?"

Chu Tianyao pondered for a long time, and replied lightly: "Let him come in." ”

The door was quickly pushed open, and a man with neat short red hair, hair that stood on end, and a coat of flame wrapped around him, walked in quickly. His appearance clearly reveals his teacher's heritage.

The man walked up to Chu Tianyao and bowed his head respectfully: "Lava Hell Flame Ghost Emperor under the Fire Rock, see the Nine Venerables." ”

The status of this fire rock in the lava hell is similar to that of Sen Cang in the Yin Wind Hell, which is to replace his own master and exercise the internal management power of the force.

And Chu Tianyao was equally sensitive to see that his body was a somewhat peculiar magma creature.

In a zone like the lava hell, where flames and magma flow everywhere, the magma accumulated in one place accidentally developed a spiritual wisdom and began to practice on its own. But the monsters born in this way are similar to plant demons, and they are the lowest kind of demons in the demon race.

They have low intelligence, there is no enlightener to guide them, and there is no Yuan Dan in their bodies that are naturally condensed by demons. Their cultivation can only passively absorb the demonic qi of heaven and earth, temper their bodies and nourish their souls in the endless years. Therefore, ordinary monsters can transform into human forms after cultivating for a hundred years, but they need to spend thousands of years.

Due to the limited range of activities, they can't run freely like other monsters with flexible limbs, and see the prosperity of the world, they can only take root in the place where they were first born, and look at the small world in front of them, and look at the passage of thousands of years. In this way, their experience and temperament are naturally far inferior to other demon clans.

This fire rock can be cultivated with a magma body, and it has been valued by the Flame Ghost Emperor, so it seems that he still has some ability. Chu Tianyao thought so quickly in his heart, but his face was still not at all, and he put on the graceful demeanor of the Nine Venerables, just waiting for him to say something.

"Lord Ghost Emperor guesses that the one who is competing with him now for 'Mixed Yuan Fragment' should be Lord Nine Venerables, and it seems that it is true. Fire Rock said slowly. Although he has the appearance of a young man, he is more like a calm middle-aged man in his words and deeds.

Most of the fire cultivators are as fierce as fire, just like the Flame and the Six Imperial Demon Lords. And this fire rock can always remain calm, and for this reason alone, his position as the protector of lava hell is worthy of his name.

Chu Tianyao snorted secretly in his heart. He should have thought that the person who spent a lot of money just now and raised the bidding price by nearly two billion at a time was the Flame Ghost Emperor!

"So what?" he smiled indifferently, already having some guesses in his mind.

Huo Yan continued to reply, "Lord Ghost Emperor said that this gift, maybe you two are planning to give it to the Rakshasa Ghost Emperor. It's like the left hand fighting with the right hand, and it's pointless. ”

"So, if the Nine Venerables promise not to participate in the competition for the Phoenix Tears later, the Ghost Emperor will promise to give up the 'Mixed Yuan Fragment', I don't know what the Nine Venerables want?"

Chu Tianyao quickly turned a series of thoughts in his mind, and his face was still unwavering: "Let Brother Flame rest assured, the deity has no interest in Phoenix Tears. ”

"In addition, by the way, I would like to convey to him that the Nine Shadows Hall and the Quartet Ghost Emperor are best friends, so don't be provoked by people with ulterior motives. ”

In this short exchange, he has figured out a lot.

The identities of the other guests in the VIP room are unknown, and when competing for lots, he and the Flame Ghost Emperor, who were exposed at the same time, will naturally be the first to think of each other. The mysterious auctioneer, this is deliberately trying to provoke their conflict.

As for what...... Maybe it's the demon waiter just now, and the "Phoenix Tears" mentioned by this fire rock at the same time.

Now that the mission of the igneous rock was accomplished, he said a few simple words and left.

Mu Hansha looked at the back of the fire rock, frowned, and couldn't help but feel injustice for the Nine Venerables.

The other party closed the door by himself, and only sent a subordinate to pass the word, which is really a big shelf. If it is the Rakshasa Ghost Emperor, it is fine, with his strength and status, he does have the qualifications to be on an equal footing with the Venerable of the Nine Shadows Palace, but what is the Flame Ghost Emperor?

Looking at the virtual screen again, the red box is gone. As part of the VIP room, guests can temporarily suspend the auction and make requests in the room will be displayed on the screen of the booth. Later, it can also be canceled by pressing a button in the room, which is really convenient.

Over there, the auctioneer also announced that the "Mixed Yuan Crush" already had a buyer, and it was sold at a price of 8.2 billion spirit stones.

It didn't take long for the auction house staff to knock on the door and enter.

"Congratulations, distinguished guest, on your successful bid. The waiter held a slip in his hand and bowed down to hand it over, "This is the bill stub for Lot 026 'Mixed Yuan Fragment'." After the auction is over, you can use this receipt to go to the back office to pay and collect the lot. ”

Chu Tianyao nodded indifferently, took the documents and didn't look at them much, and handed them over to Mu Hansha for safekeeping.

As for himself, he looked through the lot brochure with great interest.

"Phoenix tears...... After the princess of the Feng clan was betrayed by her lover, she shed tears of despair......"

It was like a stone that suddenly fell and stirred up subtle ripples in his heart.

They have used many people and betrayed many people, will they also cry for themselves? Will they also shed tears and curse themselves for eternity?

The light and shadow in front of him flickered, and the picture of Lingsha crying flashed. She is still the same she in her memory, but she is no longer the girl who was in a hurry in her childhood. She resented him for losing his father and scolded him for being unlucky. Then, she disappeared.

Next is the Snow Shadow. Even with tears in her eyes, her delicate face as delicate as ice and snow is still as beautiful as ever. Unlike Lingsha, she will not cry hysterically, she will only look at you indifferently, as if you have nothing to do with her life.

She denounced herself for abandoning her, and left her suffer for many years. Then, she also disappeared. Only those hateful eyes remained, and the chill was still there.

No...... He didn't betray them, he just sacrificed them for the sake of the longer-term good......

For the sake of profit, he lured the wolf into the house and helped the Burning Heaven Sect destroy the Xuantian Sect, so that Lingsha's family was ruined overnight......

But that's all temporary, and when he can take control of his own destiny, he'll double down on them!

However, when he turned back, they were no longer waiting where they were.

Snow Shadow has already declared that she wants to break him off. As for Lingsha, not to mention, she had long hated herself.

It was he who turned a woman who once loved him the most into a woman who hated himself the most, who is to blame?

The curse of the phoenix's tears seemed to have turned into the resentment of the two women, which made him sting his heart and lungs.

"Nine Venerables, what's wrong with you?" noticing Chu Tianyao's expression, Mu Hansha also asked with concern.

“…… It's okay. Chu Tianyao woke up from his memories, shook his head a little tiredly and smiled bitterly, "I just feel that fate is really short." If there is a love in front of you in the future, try to catch it. Because if you miss a moment, you may well miss a lifetime. ”

If he hadn't done those bad things in the first place...... Today, he is still just a small disciple of the Xuantian Sect, with the master and the master uncle, the love of Lingsha, and the worship of the senior brothers, in that case...... Will he be happier than he is now?

Mu Hansha was inexplicable for a while, and he didn't know why the Nine Venerables suddenly said this.

He doesn't understand such a thing as love, and he is not ready to touch it. Just imagine, a child who doesn't even love his own parents, will there really be a girl in the future who loves him sincerely? Even if there is, maybe it's just coveting his status as the Nine Shadows Holy Envoy......

He only knew that the Nine Venerables were his benefactors, and he only needed to serve his benefactor for the rest of his life, what other love ...... That's too empty, too far away.

……

"The next auction is a golden building in the business district - Tengfei Building!"

"The starting price, three billion spirit stones!"

The auction after "Mixed Yuan Crush" is nothing special. Feng Boliang, Chu Tianyao and Xi Lingchen have always been watching from the wall throughout the whole process, but on the side of the flames, they threw money and grabbed a lot of lots, which can be called the realistic version of "rich and capricious".

Finally, it was the finale of the first half, that is, the real estate auction of the Tengfei Building.

The entire auction hall was unprecedentedly excited.

The ownership of an office building has nothing to do with most people, except for professional real estate dealers. Anyway, no matter who owns the building, they still have to work and go to work as usual, and their lives will not change in any way.

But after the previous public opinion campaign, the relevant information of "Tengfei Building" is on the hot search almost every day, and for the masses who eat melons and watch the show, there is a commercial war for the first time, so close to themselves. And they really got interested, wondering who the building was.

In addition to those bigwigs who bet heavily in underground casinos, even many ordinary people have made small bets on some websites or groups with great interest, betting on Xilingchen and Jia Dafu, who will be the final winner.

Therefore, at the beginning of the auction, in an uproar, there were also people bidding with their signs.

"Three two billion spirit stones!"

"Three billion spirit stones!"

In the VIP room, Liu Mo dutifully reminded Xilingchen.

"President, the Soaring Building has arrived. ”

A dark light quickly flashed in Xilingchen's eyes, and after the last press of his fingers in the stock market, he put away the jade slip and sat down in front of the virtual screen, waiting intently.

At the beginning of the bidding, it seemed that he was not going to make a bid right away.

Liu Mo also sat next to him, taking the opportunity to check the screen, but deliberately put her body very close to him.

Inside the hall.

"Thirty and five billion spirit stones!"

"Three billion spirit stones!"

There is an endless source of bidding from all sides.

"Boss, do you want to start bidding too?" The assistant next to Jia Dafu listened to the noise in the venue, lowered his head, and asked the boss quietly.

"Nope. Jia Dafu waved his hand calmly, at this time, he really had a bit of a guiding bearing.

"There is no movement in the VIP room now, and we can't mess with it first. ”

"Wait! Wait for Xiling Xiao'er to bid first, and then we'll follow. ”

These two people choose to wait at the same time in the early stage, on the one hand, they are invisibly putting pressure on the opponent, and on the other hand, they also hope that the opponent will bid first so that they can see the enemy's hole cards.

"Four billion spirit stones!"

"Four four billion spirit stones!"

In the auction hall, several other real estate owners are also bidding one after another.

Although they know that with those two bigwigs here, the ownership of the building will basically not fall into their hands, but no matter what, they always have to fight. Maybe they will lose both, and in the end it will be their turn to "profit"?

Even if it doesn't work, it's good to raise the total price first, so that they have to "bleed" once after the auction is successful.

"Four and a half billion spirit stones!"

"Four billion spirit stones!"

At the same time, there are also some auctions that invite them to raise their prices.

Even the world's No. 1 auction house is not exempt from vulgarity, and in large-scale auctions, a few trustees will also be invited to help raise the price, after all, no one will be too much money.

And these supports are also well-trained, and they are distributed all over the venue, and each time the price is raised, it is generally 110 million plus. It can not only raise the price point, but also not raise the price too much at once, so that the real bidder loses confidence.

"Four and eight billion spirit stones. Feng Boliang also played as if he was joking, raising a sign to bid.

In the VIP room, Xilingchen finally pressed the screen for the first time.

"There is no movement in the VIP room now, and we can't mess with it first. ”
