Chapter 1142

The beautiful woman’s pleasant voice spread out, and the imperceptible description made the already hot atmosphere at the scene rise even more.

The earth-shattering wealth, the top-notch cultivation methods, and the mysterious inheritance, these things, even the people in those private rooms were greatly tempted.

But everyone knew that what she said was beautiful, but very unreliable. It was just a fragmented map. Who could rely on this fragmented map to find the correct place and explore what was hidden in that place？

If this fragmented map really had great value, it wouldn’t have been taken out for auction. The Jubaolou has strong strength and naturally would organize people to look for the treasure.

The beautiful woman sized up the situation and, knowing that her goal had been achieved, she didn’t say anything more. With a charming smile, she said, “The starting price of this incomplete map is ten thousand Saint Crystals. Please！”

She didn’t even mention the increment for each bid, obviously allowing people to bid freely.

“Ten thousand！” Although it was an incomplete map, it didn’t prevent its collection value. Just because they couldn’t find other incomplete maps now didn’t mean they wouldn’t be able to in the future. Buying it back for ten thousand Saint Crystals might be a great opportunity. So, as soon as the beautiful woman’s voice fell, countless people reported the starting price.

The beautiful woman smiled slightly and looked at a certain person in the hall and said, “This friend numbered eighty-seven was the first to bid. If other friends want it, please increase the price！”

“Twelve thousand!”

“Fifteen thousand!”

The bidding voices in the hall rose and fell one after another. Even the people in the private rooms successively spoke up to bid. However, each time the bid was increased by not much, at most two or three thousand Saint Crystals.

The incomplete map with a starting price of ten thousand was quickly bid up to fifty thousand, then seventy thousand, eighty thousand…

After eighty thousand, the atmosphere at the scene solidified a lot, and no one continued to bid.

No one would be so crazy as to spend eighty thousand Saint Crystals to buy back an incomplete map of unknown use. Its main value was just for collection.

Yang Kai shook his head. Just as he was about to say a word to Wu Yi, he suddenly found that Yang Yan’s expression was a little strange. He couldn’t help but ask in a low voice, “What’s wrong？”

Yang Yan turned her head to look at him and also replied softly, “I seem to have an incomplete map like this！”

“What？” Yang Kai was shocked and asked in surprise, “Are you sure？”

Yang Yan nodded seriously.

“Eighty-two thousand！” Without thinking, Yang Kai directly quoted a price. After reporting it, he was stunned for a moment and suddenly remembered that he didn’t have that many Saint Crystals at all, and couldn’t help feeling extremely embarrassed.

But the price had already been quoted and naturally couldn’t be taken back. If he really did that, he would definitely be thrown out by the people of Jubaolou, and then he would lose face.

The atmosphere at the scene, which had been cooled for a long time, was once again mobilized by Yang Kai’s quotation. The beautiful auctioneer woman also smiled extraordinarily brightly, and her gaze was cast towards the private room, shouting loudly, “The friend in Room C13 has already bid eighty-two thousand. Is there any higher price？”

Just when Yang Kai was at a loss, a quotation sounded again from below, finally relieving his embarrassment.

“Ten thousand!” ”

Yang Kai clearly felt that after this person’s price was reported, countless divine senses instantly gathered on him. There are only two possibilities for being so firm in snatching a incomplete map. Either he doesn’t care about these one hundred thousand Saint Crystals and wants to buy a chance to go back, or he has another incomplete map.

The person who called out the price of one hundred thousand seemed to feel that something was wrong and immediately lowered his head, but his appearance had long been remembered by others. Now it was too late to hide.

Yang Kai also remembered his appearance. He was a middle-aged man with not high strength. His realm was only at the First-Order Saint King Realm. He was dressed ordinarily and didn’t look like a rich or noble person.

Could it be that this person also has a fragmentary map？ Yang Kai thought to himself.

Yang Kai was certain that not only he thought so, but many others would as well. Once he walked out of the Jubao Tower, he might be targeted by countless people. Buying this fragmentary map back was completely a hidden disaster.

With this thought, Yang Kai was secretly shocked. Fortunately, this person had resolved his crisis. Otherwise, it would not be him but himself who was targeted.

However, Yang Yan actually also had such a fragmentary map, which was beyond Yang Kai’s expectations. If the two fragmentary maps were pieced together, perhaps some clues could be found. Yang Kai was secretly calculating whether he should obtain the fragmentary map from this person’s hands. If he wanted to obtain it, what kind of means should he use, and it was best not to let others discover.

In case it was really as the beautiful woman auctioneer said, that the fragmentary map hid some astonishing wealth…

On the high platform, the voice of the beautiful woman auctioneer rang out again： “Ten thousand, is there any higher price？ Ten thousand once… ten thousand twice…”

After calling out three times in a row, still no one bid. In the end, this fragmentary map was still bought by the middle-aged man at the price of ten thousand Saint Crystals. The woman in palace attire brought the fragmentary map in front of him, took the ten thousand Saint Crystals, and handed the fragmentary map to him. The transaction was completed.

After obtaining the fragmentary map, the middle-aged man was even more on pins and needles. He must have really wanted to leave this place of right and wrong now, but he didn’t dare to act rashly and could only endure sitting on the chair.

His such performance makes people suspect even more whether he really has other incomplete maps.

The auction was still going on. Suddenly, one of the two female disciples of the Shadowmoon Palace took out a secret treasure of the compass for sending messages, sensed it for a while, and smiled and said, “Young Master Yang, Elder Qian is right outside the door.”

“Please him in.” Yang Kai happened to also want to find Qian Tong and didn’t expect him to come over by himself.

That female disciple responded and came over to open the door. Sure enough, Qian Tong was waiting outside with a smile on his face.

Whoever could easily scrape together 30 million Saint Crystals would also be as happy as Qian Tong and couldn’t close his mouth. As for the matter that Yan Pei let out the wind and made him lose the opportunity, Qian Tong didn’t care anymore.

With these 30 million Saint Crystals more, if the Shadowmoon Palace couldn’t outbid others in the auction again, then Qian Tong would have nothing to say.

“Nephew Yang, Qian has something to attend to and didn’t get away until now. I neglected nephew. Please don’t blame me！” Qian Tong cupped his hands and said politely.

“Elder Qian is too serious. If it weren’t for Elder Qian’s efforts, we wouldn’t have the qualification to sit here either.” Yang Kai chuckled and said while inviting Qian Tong to sit down.

Qian Tong waved his hand and said, “Qian still has to go and preside over the matter of the Shadowmoon Palace participating in the auction, so I won’t bother nephew. This time I came here especially to thank nephew.”

“Thank me？” Yang Kai was completely confused and didn’t know what he was talking about.

“That’s right. I’m here to thank you for bringing a huge profit to our Shadowmoon Palace. Hehe, this is just a small token of our appreciation. Please don’t decline.” While speaking, Qian Tong handed over a spatial ring.

Yang Kai didn’t take it. Looking at Qian Tong, he said, “Elder Qian, can you explain it more clearly？ I really don’t know what I’ve done that is beneficial to the Shadowmoon Palace.”

Qian Tong’s words were quite profound. Since he said it was the intention of the Shadowmoon Palace, he was now representing the Shadowmoon Palace instead of himself. Accepting the benefits of a large power for no reason made Yang Kai feel uneasy.

Moreover, he had only brought a few auction items over. This could only be said to be beneficial to the Jubao Tower and had no benefit to the Shadowmoon Palace at all.

Qian Tong seemed to also know that Yang Kai didn’t like to accept favors from others for no reason. Last time, when he gave him a healing Rose Pill, it was returned by him. If he didn’t explain clearly this time, Yang Kai definitely wouldn’t accept this spatial ring either.

After some consideration, Qian Tong said, “Well, the several auction items that you sent over temporarily are of inestimable value. The major forces that came to participate were not fully prepared. Forced by the situation, they could only borrow the spatial arrays of our Tianyun City and return to their respective sects to raise Saint Crystals.I slightly charged them some toll fees. Cough cough, so a large part of this toll fee is your credit. However, After all, that is the asset of the Shadow Moon Palace. I dare not give you too much. It’s just a small token of appreciation. Nephew, don’t refuse again.”

Yang Kai was stunned. He didn’t expect Qian Tong could even do this kind of business. He admired him not in his heart and thought that this would offend how many people. No wonder just now he saw people coming in and out of the private rooms numbered Jia and Yi.It turned out they were going back to raise Saint Crystals.

Yang Kai knew very well the value of the auction items he sent over. Now that he heard Qian Tong say this, he immediately understood that there was indeed his credit in it.

He no longer declined and happily took the spatial ring, laughing loudly and saying, “Since that’s the case, then this junior won’t be polite. Originally, I still wanted to ask Elder Qian to borrow some Saint Crystals for turnover. Now it seems there is no need.”

He really wanted to go and borrow some Saint Crystals from Qian Tong just now. He originally had no intention of participating in the auction, but the appearance of a fragment of a map made Yang Kai realize that there might really be something he needed here. If he saw a good item and didn’t have Saint Crystals to bid, how embarrassing would that be？ Moreover, Wu Yi and Yang Yan were so enthusiastic about cheering for others. Yang Kai felt that it was time to let them participate.

Unexpectedly, Qian Tong, as if he could predict the future, sent Saint Crystals to him.

This made Yang Kai very happy.

Qian Tong also smiled and said, “As long as you don’t bid on something too precious, these Saint Crystals should be enough for you to use.”

He didn’t say exactly how much he gave, and Yang Kai didn’t ask in detail. This kind of thing is known only to heaven, earth, you, and me. There’s no need to make a big fuss about it. After all, Qian Tong also said that it was the property of the Shadow Moon Palace. That he could decide to give some to Yang Kai was already a huge favor.

Just then, the beautiful woman on the auction stage loudly said, “The next item to be auctioned is something that I believe everyone will be very interested in. Please get ready to bid！”

As soon as these words were spoken, Yang Kai clearly felt that the atmosphere in each private room became solemn. Obviously, they had already received some inside information and knew what this thing might be. As for the warriors in the hall, they were completely confused, but it still didn’t prevent their anticipation.

The palace-attired woman responsible for presenting the auction item once again stepped onto the high platform. On the jade plate was placed a delicate jade bottle. The beautiful woman picked up the jade bottle, uncapped it, and excitedly shouted： “This time, what is being auctioned is a Void Condensation Pill！”

Sure enough, as soon as the beautiful woman’s voice fell, a noisy hubbub rang out throughout the audience. The beautiful woman watched with a smile, very satisfied with the reaction of the crowd.
