After observing for a while, Ye Li also raised his sign to make an offer, but the price he offered this time was only a little more than the previous highest price.
His goal was to blend in with the crowd and pretend to be just a slightly interested buyer.
The price quickly rose to twenty-two high-quality spirit stones. It was Ye Li himself who called out this price, and the only one bidding against him was a skinny middle-aged man sitting not far away.
After hearing Ye Li's offer, the other party was obviously a little hesitant, because in his opinion, it was not worth spending more than twenty high-quality spirit stones to buy a statue of an unknown object.
After thinking about it, he finally shook his head and gave up bidding.
A feeling of joy suddenly surged in Ye Li's heart. No matter what was in the statue, according to Tunri, it should be a precious item, otherwise it would not be stored in the Xuanwu Tianji Box.
He felt that it was not a loss to spend twenty-two high-quality spirit stones to buy a box that was likely to contain treasures.
Just when he was about to take a picture of the Xuanwu Secret Box, Ye Li sensitively sensed a murderous gaze looking at him from not far above his head.
He looked up warily, only to find that the young man named Hua was looking at him with murderous intent.
Ye Li just thought that the other party was still angry about what happened before, and he didn't take it too seriously. Anyway, the other party didn't know who he was. After leaving, he just had to be careful not to be discovered by the other party.
After thinking about it, he ignored the young man upstairs. After Zhu Wenyuan announced that he had bought the item, he walked to the front of the stage to pay the spirit stones.
"Third Master, didn't you want to buy this statue? Why don't you bid now?"
The guard asked with a puzzled look on his face.
“Humph, if I let him buy it, it would just give me a reason to kill him.
Now that he has taken something I must have, it should be reasonable for me to kill him, right?"
The young man said this with murderous intent on his face, his eyes full of viciousness.
He knew that his young master had a bad temper, was vicious and domineering, and this was not the first time he had killed people and robbed things.
However, those who can come here to participate in the auction now all have some background, so the guard said: "Third Young Master, the people here were invited by the four major chambers of commerce. They all have some background, but they are different from those people you killed before."
Hearing his guard's words, the young man turned around abruptly, glared back and said, "Uncle Wang, do you mean I should still take his identity into consideration
He is a guy sitting down there, wearing a linen shirt. Which big family do you think he might be from
The children of powerful families, no matter how ignorant they are of the rules, would definitely dress normally when attending such an event. Where do you think a person like him comes from?"
The guard surnamed Wang was slightly stunned by what the young man said, and then he understood and said, "So, sir, you didn't just act rashly, you observed him?"
Hearing the guard's words, the young man smiled maliciously and said, "Of course I have observed him, and I know what image I have in your minds, but this does not mean that I am stupid.
I will restrain myself in front of people I can't afford to offend, so that I can survive and be arrogant in front of people I can afford to offend.
The aura exuded by this country bumpkin, although not like that of an ordinary casual cultivator, is somewhat like that of a child of a noble family. However, he is obviously not from a large family because there is not a trace of nobility in his actions.
The children of truly powerful families grow up in aristocratic families, so it is destined that they will have the nobility that matches their status and it is impossible for them to be so simple.
He might have been invited here for some other reasons, but I'm sure it wasn't because of the family behind him.
As long as the family behind him is not as powerful as my Hua family, why should I be afraid of him? And you also saw it that day. He was alone, standing outside the Treasure Pavilion, staring at the shop in a daze. It was obvious that it was the first time he saw the Treasure Pavilion. What would be the problem even if I killed such a person
Uncle Wang, after the auction is over, find a way to find out where he lives. He obviously came here from somewhere else to attend the auction, and he will definitely leave Jujin City after that. Then we will fight outside the city. I will kill him and get what I want from him."
When the young man mentioned the word "brutal slaughter", his whole body exuded an aura of cruelty and bloodlust, looking extremely sinister.
Ye Li had no idea that he had been targeted by the other party. After going on stage to hand over the spirit stones, he picked up the Xuanwu Tianji Box from the tray.
It was not convenient for him to check it at the auction, so he could only quickly put it into his Qiankun bag.
After returning to his seat, Ye Li communicated with Tunri through voice transmission: "Senior Tunri, what do you think might be in this Xuanwu Tianji Box?"
Tunri shook his head and said, “I don’t know, anything precious could be possible.
For example, rare and powerful spells, some elixirs, talismans, rare materials, elixirs, etc. Of course, it is also possible that it is just a personal item that is precious to the owner of the box. "
Hearing Tunri's last sentence, Ye Li was slightly stunned, and then said: "Personal property
No way, Senior Tunri, if it is really this kind of thing, then with twenty or so high-grade spirit stones, wouldn't it be entirely possible for me to buy a handkerchief, a letter from home, or something like that?"
Tunri rolled his eyes at him and said, “Of course, but there is a high chance that it is something else. Generally speaking, as long as it is not personal property, the things inside may be valuable treasures.
Besides, the value of this Xuanwu Secret Box alone would not be less than twenty-two high-grade spirit stones.
This thing is used to store valuables, it is absolutely safe, even if someone gets the box, if they don’t know how to open it, they will definitely not be able to take out the things inside.”
After thinking about it, Ye Li felt that this was true, so he felt relieved.
The last items of the auction were quickly sold out. Zhu Wenyuan said with a bright smile, "Everyone, all the items auctioned this time have been sold. Our auction has been a complete success with the support of all the distinguished guests.
On behalf of my Zhu family and the people from the other three chambers of commerce, I would like to express my gratitude to all the distinguished guests present..."
As Zhu Wenyuan spoke, he saluted everyone very solemnly with his fists clasped.
After some more polite words, the auction officially ended.
Ye Li stood up and walked out of the venue with the other guests around him. He looked up at the young man upstairs unconsciously and found that he was also staring at him with resentment in his eyes.
