Chapter 454: Throwing the Xu Family’s face to the ground.
Hearing the white-robed old man’s words, the middle-aged man who was called Senior Yao nodded at once.
“Indeed, this is too ugly for the Xu Family to eat.
Being a hallowed Transformation God family, but still doing those things that are not worthy of the stage, it’s simply disgracing us, the Transformation God Holy Lands.”
Speaking of this, a trace of playfulness could not help but appear on Senior Yao’s face.
“This time, I would like to see, that Xu family brat, how exactly he plans to end it.”
As he spoke, the Xu Family cultivator on the auction stage had no choice but to turn his gaze, towards that hawk-nosed man.
Between the possibility of being suspected, and going against his own ancestor’s words, he undoubtedly chose the latter.
That hawk-hooked-nosed man also reacted quickly.
The moment he received the gaze of the Xu Clan cultivators, he immediately turned his gaze, in the direction of Jiang Chengxuan and the others.
On his face, a grim look immediately appeared.
Only to hear him suddenly speak, “I, Mr. Xu, am determined to win this item, I’ll offer one million and one hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones!”
Although in his words, no specific threatening words were uttered.
But then there wasn’t a single person in the crowd present who was a fool.
Everyone could already hear the implication of his words, which was that whoever dared to compete with him for the Refined Gemstone would not rest in peace with him.
Unfortunately, whether it was Jiang Chengxuan or Shen Ruyan, it was clear that both of them took his words as a fart.
Right now, not to mention that he is such a YuanYing cultivator, even if it is that what Xu family holy land’s old ancestor came, will not be able to take back the XuanCaiShi they took out.
Then he saw Jiang Chengxuan with a calm face, slowly stretching out five fingers on the stage.
“Five million top-grade spirit stones!”
Boom!
This time, the entire auction venue, was truly a bit boiled.
To use five hundred million spirit stones to purchase a Refined Gemstone whose exact efficacy was still unknown, wasn’t this also too much of a loser?
Even the white-clothed old man and Senior Yao in the box had expressions that were somewhat surprised.
“Interesting.”
A hint of a smile appeared on the white-clothed old man’s face.
“I don’t know which family that person belongs to, but this time, on the Xu Family’s side, it’s really going to sit on wax.”
Indeed.
At this time, the Xu Family cultivator, the expression on his face, already somewhat taut, was already becoming very ugly.
However, at such a long river, he still had to do his best to hold back his inner emotions.
Only to see him turn his head to look at the hawk-nosed man.
The meaning in that gaze was already clear, that was for him to continue bidding.
At this moment, the eagle-hooked nose man also felt his scalp tingle slightly.
That fellow who was bidding against himself, what exactly was the situation?
At this point, could he still not see anything?
This was to really offend their Xu Family to the death.
“Six …… six million upper grade spirit stones.”
Having no choice, the hawk-nosed man could only harden his head and continue to bid.
“Ten million upper grade spirit stones!”
However, what made both the eagle-hooked nose man and the Xu Clan cultivator’s faces change slightly was.
On Jiang Chengxuan’s side, he continued to quote a light price.
It was as if what he was currently shouting out was not ten million top-grade spirit stones, comparable to a billion, but merely a thousand ordinary spirit stones.
This time, even though the eagle-hooked nose man had the intention, he didn’t dare to continue playing like this.
That could really kill someone.
Fortunately, just at this moment, a voice transmission fell into the ears of him and the Xu Family cultivator on the auction stage respectively.
It made their nerves, which were still taut, instantly relax.
Inside a certain luxurious box.
A youth with an expression full of condescension was suddenly smashing a jade cup in his hand.
This person was precisely the person leading the Xu Family this time, a great cultivator with a peak cultivation at the ninth level of the Yuanying.
The name was Xu Hailong.
On top of that, he also had an identity that made all the people of the Xu Family, envious.
That was the direct descendant of their Xu family’s old ancestor.
Although the generations were already far apart.
But who let this person’s cultivation talent be extraordinary.
Almost just when he was at the Foundation Establishment realm, he was valued by his family’s old ancestor and brought to his side for cultivation.
To this day, Xu Hailong had already become the leader of the entire Xu Family, the new generation.
The voice transmission that had just been given to the hawk-nosed man and the Xu Family cultivators on the stage had been sent by him.
At this moment, his face was filled with grimness, and suddenly he was looking at an old man beside him, saying in a chilling voice:
“Those few people, what exactly are their identities?
Immediately go find out for me, unless they intend to stay in this Moonlight City for the rest of their lives, otherwise, I want them to die in the streets the moment they leave Moonlight City!”
“Yes!”
Hearing Xu Hailong’s command, that old man immediately bowed to receive the order, and soon his figure, disappeared in the middle of this box.
At the same time, Jiang Chengxuan, who was located at the auction site, after no one continued to bid against him, finally got his wish and obtained that piece of Xuan Cai Shi.
Although the Xu family had always been unruly in their dealings, the Xu family had always been unruly in their dealings.
But they wouldn’t, in front of so many people.
Especially in front of the other three families of the Sacred Land, blatantly breaking the rules of the auction.
Because what would be broken was no longer the rules of his Xu family alone, but the rules of the remaining three families.
The remaining three families, inevitably, would not allow them to do that either.
Looking at the Xuan color stone in his hand, Jiang Chengxuan’s heart couldn’t help but be a little expectant as well.
Although he knew that kind of thing was unlikely, but the XuanCaiShi had already appeared, so it didn’t seem to be a problem for the Flying Sky Crystal to look forward to it itself.
Shen Ruyan on the side was obviously in a very good mood as well.
Regardless, right now, if they could get the Xuan Cai Stone, it would already be considered a worthwhile trip.
At least the materials used to repair that Ascension Platform, they were already halfway there.
It could be said that they had truly made a good start.
On the contrary, it was Huang Wenyu, who was located beside them, who had an expression on his face at this time that was almost all helpless and bitter smiles.
Because he knew very well that after this matter, with the Xu family’s usual style, he would definitely launch a comprehensive investigation into the three of them.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan would be fine.
He Huang Wenyu’s identity, but how it is impossible to keep.
In other words, after the auction, it was very likely that he would have to give up his identity as the Vice Lord of the Western Sea Merchants Union and join Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
This was not to say that he would have any reluctance or complaints about this.
As a matter of fact, being able to find the Xuan Color Stone and help his hometown Nine Elements Immortal Cultivation Realm to repair the Ascension Platform, that was something he was very willing and hopeful to see.
The only reason why he had those complicated emotions was because in the past, Zheng Hengyu, the Alliance Leader of the Western Sea Merchant Alliance, had treated him well and held him in very high regard.
Anyone else who wanted to serve as a vice alliance lord would need to have a cultivation level of at least a YuanYing seventh level great cultivator.
However, he, Huang Wenyu, had assumed the position of Vice Alliance Leader of the Western Sea Merchant Alliance with a cultivation level of only the fifth level of YuanYing.
It was evident that Zheng Hanyu held him in high regard.
As for worrying about his own merchant alliance, whether he would be targeted by the Xu family.
There might be some of that, but Huang Wenyu wasn’t really very worried.
This was because, their Western Sea Merchant Alliance’s alliance leader, Zheng Hengyu, was also a Transformation God Heavenly Monarch.
Under these circumstances, even if the Xu Family had the intention to target their Western Sea Merchant Alliance, they wouldn’t go too far.
At most, they would just ask their Western Sea Merchant Alliance to give an explanation or hand over him, Huang Wenyu.
But at that time, he himself would have already been the one to actively choose to break away from the Western Sea Merchant Alliance.
Even if the Xu family wanted to do something in this regard, they wouldn’t have much of a chance.
As if sensing Huang Wenyu’s thoughts, Jiang Chengxuan didn’t presume to give any comfort, but instead said in a slightly apologetic tone:
“I’m really sorry Brother Huang, in this matter, I’ve gotten you into trouble.”
Hearing this Huang Wenyu was relieved.
He couldn’t help but smile and shake his head.
“It’s nothing, here I will eventually just be a passerby, I just hope that when you guys are going back at that time, just don’t forget me.”
These words with a few hints of flirtation instantly caused both Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan to laugh.
The auction continued.
It was only that many people present could clearly sense that the Xu Clan cultivator located on the auction stage at this time wasn’t in too good of a state.
Especially when there were two other auctioneers to compare him to, the performance of the Xu Family cultivator was more and more unsatisfactory.
Fortunately, even so, the auction session belonging to their Xu Family would eventually be dealt with by him.
Only, not long after he stepped off the auction stage.
It seemed as if he had received some kind of mission, and he actually walked over towards Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
Noticing this scene, some of the people who had come to participate in this auction couldn’t help but look a little surprised.
However, there were also some people who knew the Xu family’s ways, as well as the inner workings of the family, and there was a hint of interest in watching the show on their faces.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, their eyebrows were also slightly raised, and in their hearts, they already understood the other party’s intentions.
At that moment, they did not wait for the other party to walk in, and even more so, without any intention to leave any face for the other party, they directly rushed at the other party and faintly opened their mouths:
“If you guys are here to ask for that Refined Gemstone back, I think that won’t be necessary.
Since your Xu Family chose to bring something out, then you must be prepared for it to be auctioned away.
Otherwise, if the item is taken out and no one else is allowed to participate in the bidding, what? Is your Xu family that unable to afford to lose?
Or is it that your Xu family is planning to use the power-over-people thing and rob it if you don’t give it to them?”
Jiang Chengxuan didn’t deliberately lower his voice, so almost everyone present heard his words clearly.
This also made the expressions on the faces of the people present, all of them became somewhat wonderful, the gazes that looked towards Jiang Chengxuan and their side, also took on a multitude of unknown colors.
Those few people, they really weren’t afraid of death at all.
This kind of words, they actually dared to say it directly in front of so many people.
It was simply taking the face of their Xu family, throwing it to the ground and stepping on it with their feet.
Even the white-clothed old man and Senior Brother Yao, who were located in the box, looked slightly stunned after hearing those words from Jiang Chengxuan.
Soon after, the two of them were laughing in unison.
Only to hear Senior Yao say, ”This time, it can be said that the Xu Clan and their face has been completely disgraced.
I’m really curious, when the old ghost of the Xu Family finds out about this, what exactly will be a reaction.”
The white-clothed old man laughed, “What kind of reaction, that goes without saying?
I now have some interest in the identities and origins of those few people, so I might as well have someone go and find out just what their origins are.”
While the two of them over here were talking, the Xu Clan’s auctioneer over there, at this moment, his face, however, was already an iron blue.
Indeed.
Just now, he had indeed received a voice transmission from Xu Hailong to him, asking him to try and get that Refined Gemstone, to find a way to get it back from Jiang Chengxuan and the others.
Lure or threat.
In short, as much as possible, he should try to get that Refining Gem back before the auction ended.
But what the Xu family auctioneer hadn’t expected no matter what was that, facing himself, Jiang Chengxuan he had even directly spilled the beans right in front of so many people.
And still with that unquestionable posture.
Not only did he satirize their Xu family, but he also threw their Xu family’s face to the ground and rubbed it hard.
Thinking of this, the Xu Family’s auctioneer could no longer hold back.
In his eyes, an incomparably icy and cold killing intent immediately erupted, and he couldn’t help but be looking at Jiang Chengxuan and the others, coldly saying in a single word:
“You dare to slander our Xu Family?
Do you really think that in this auction venue, our Xu Family wouldn’t dare to do anything to you?”
“Uhm ……”
Hearing the words of this Xu Family’s auctioneer, Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes, finally narrowed.
A somewhat dangerous aura was slowly emanating from his body.
As a Great Heavenly Monarch, it was one thing for Jiang Chengxuan not to bother with these pretty clowns.
But it was another thing for pretty clowns to keep provoking, like a fly that kept buzzing around your ears.
Just, the next thing is not waiting for Jiang Chengxuan to really explode, located on the distant auction stage, a female auctioneer from the Blue Sea Sacred Ground, suddenly was coldly speaking:
“Xu Chuanping, if you continue to disrupt the order of the auction here, then don’t blame me for having someone throw you out.”
As she spoke, this female auctioneer from the Blue Sea Holy Land actually emitted an aura belonging to a late stage YuanYing Grand Cultivator.
Moreover, this aura of hers was firmly locked onto Xu Chuanping, who was located not far from Jiang Chengxuan and the others.
This caused his expression, which was originally still full of killing intent, to immediately stiffen.
For a moment, he could neither enter nor retreat, and could only stand there awkwardly.
Fortunately, his reaction was not really slowed down to that point.
After giving Jiang Chengxuan and the others one last look with a gaze full of grimness, he finally turned away unwillingly.
Just at the same time, the female auctioneer located on the auction stage couldn’t help but cast a slightly apologetic gaze towards Jiang Chengxuan and the others, and in her mouth, she even apologized directly:
“The several fellow Daoists over there, I’m really sorry.
Just now the thing, is our auction did not do a good job, in order to apologize, a moment auction, if you have the need, and finally won the auction, then regardless of the final price of the items sold, I will be on this basis, give you a 50% discount.”
As these words fell, a look of surprise could not help but spread across the faces of many of the cultivators present.
They didn’t expect that in the face of something like what had just happened, the Blue Sea Holy Land’s side, would even make such a move.
This instantly formed a stark contrast with the Xu Family’s behavior just now.
For a time, many of the cultivators present had a much better impression of the Blue Sea Holy Land, as well as that female auctioneer. (End of chapter)
