Chapter 455 Ch 455: Getting The Dragon Blood Stone
"Sir, are you sure you want to compete with us for the Dragon Blood Stone?" The patriarch of the Xing Family asked Ye Xiao coldly. His cold voice was enough to tell his intension, but why would Ye Xiao care?
Ye Xiao nodded and said, "Of course, I'll be competing. What do you think I called a bid for?"
"You..."
"Patriarch Xing, don't pressure him. Don't forget the rule of this trade fair. He is bidding and we are also bidding. The highest bidder will naturally win!"
Before the patriarch of the Xing Family could say anything, the patriarch of the He Family stopped him and commented.
"Humph!" The Xing Family's patriarch snorted and turned to look at the old man before saying, "Sixteen Million High Grade Immortal Stones!"
"Seventeen Million High Grade Immortal Stones!"
"Eighteen Million..."
"Nineteen Million..."
"Twenty..."
The bid continued to rise like water. He Yu, Yue Ying, Lin Xiao, and others who were standing here, witnessing the increase in the bid for the Dragon Blood Stone sucked in a cold breath of air. They could not believe that a single Dragon Blood Stone could cause this kind of intense competition among the patriarch of the seven top powers and a mysterious man in black.
"Thirty Million High Grade Immortal Stones!"
When the price of the Dragon Blood Stone was raised to twenty-four million High Grade Immortal Stones, Ye Xiao directly raised the bid by six million, calling out the price of Thirty Million High Grade Immortal Stones.
This caused even the seven Da Manifestation Realm old men to look at Ye Xiao in a new light. They immediately understood that Ye Xiao was determined to get his hand on the Dragon Blood Stone. They also understood that Ye Xiao was not lacking in terms of wealth and he might even be richer than them.
It was because Thirty Million High Grade Immortal Stones was a price even they didn't dare to call out carelessly. This price was enough to make them suffer a huge loss.
For a moment, the bidding competition completely stopped. No one increase the price again.
"Oh my god! Who is this man? He actually bided Thirty Million High Grade Immortal Stones. just how rich this person is?"
"Exactly. Look at our patriarchs. Even they stopped increasing the price."
"How can a single Dragon Blood Stone be worth so many High Grade Immortal Stones?"
"It is really... Something else! At first, the price of the Dragon Blood Stone was only a Hundred Thousand High Grade Immortal Stones, but now, it has already increased to the Thirty Million High Grade Immortal Stones. That old man, who is selling the Dragon Immortal Stone, will become rich in an instant!"
"That old man will definitely be targeted by many people after he'll left this place. Thirty Million High Grade Immortal Stones are not a small amount."
He Yu and others started discussing among themselves. They simply could not believe what was happening in front of them. For a moment, all of them thought that they were dreaming.
But, how can everyone see the same dream? It definitely was the reality!
"Will anyone like to raise the price?"
When the old man saw no one was increasing the price again, he smiled and asked.
"Bastard!"
"Shameless old man!"
"....."
All seven patriarchs of the seven top powers of Great Martial City cursed in their hearts when they heard the old man's question.
The price of the Dragon Blood Stone was already raised to Thirty Million High Grade Immortal Stones yet this old man still wanted them to raise the price. How can an old man like him be so shameless?
Seeing that no one was willing to raise the price of the Dragon Blood Stone, the old man shook his head in disappointment.
Seeing the old man's disappointed expression, everyone cursed again in their hearts. Even Ye Xiao could not help but be amused after seeing the old man's shameless behaviour.
"Since no one is increasing the bid, then I declare, this Dragon Blood Stone belongs to that brother in black!" The old man finally sealed the deal.
A smile appeared on Ye Xiao's face when he finally won the bid successfully. He took a few steps forward and arrived in front of the old man and said, "I don't have High Grade Immortal Stones but I do have Middle Grade Immortal Stones. Thirty Million High Grade Immortal Stones are equal to Three Billion Middle Grade Immortal Stones. Here, take it!"
Saying that Ye Xiao took out a spatial ring and gave it to the old man. There were exactly Three Billion Middle Grade Immortal Stones in that spatial ring. That spatial ring was something he took from the Wang Mayan after killing him.
Ye Xiao had yet to open the mine of High Grade Immortal Stones. So, he could not take out a single High Grade Immortal Stone for the time being.
After he unlocked the mine of the Middle Grade Immortal Stones, he found out that he no longer needed to mine Immortal Stones one by one here. With just one thought, he could mine as many Immortal Stones as he want.
The old man took the spatial ring from Ye Xiao's hand and inspected it inside. Seeing that there were exactly Three Billion Middle Grade Immortal Stones, that old man nodded his head and gave the Dragon Blood Stone to Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao took the Dragon Blood Stone, stored it inside his spatial ring, turned around, and left.
The patriarchs of the seven top families of Great Martial City wanted to follow Ye Xiao but they didn't do so. It is because there were still many people here, watching them. If they followed Ye Xiao now and attacked him, it will definitely cost them the reputation of their families. They could not afford to lose the reputation of their families.
Although the seven Dao Manifestation Realm old men didn't follow Ye Xiao, there were still many people who followed behind him, waiting for an opportunity to attack Ye Xiao and take the Dragon Blood Stone for themselves.
How can Ye Xiao, who has the Divine Sense, not know what was going on? He knew the exact number of people who were following him and their location.
Ye Xiao didn't want trouble at this moment so he simply used the "Spirit Devour Escape" and disappeared from his place, leaving all the people dumbfounded who were following him.
Ye Xiao's speed was simply so fast that all those people saw was him disappearing from his place.
They came out and started searching for Ye Xiao.
On the other hand, Ye Xiao returned to the front of the old man's stall where Yue Ying, He Yu, and others were waiting for him.
Seeing Ye Xiao returning, He Yu asked, "Brother Ye, where were you? You missed a great show!"
The moment He Yu said these words, he felt seven cold stares staring at his back. His body could not help but shiver as a cold chill ran down his spine.
p
He Yu smiled bitterly as he looked in the direction where the seven patriarchs left.
.....
The old man looked at Ye Xiao deeply. Then he stood up, packed all the ordinary things, stored them in his spatial ring, and then left.
But the moment he left, Ye Xiao's body trembled as he looked in the old man's direction.
The moment the old man left, Ye Xiao heard the sound transmission of the old man. He said: "Little fellow if you want more Dragon Blood Stone, find me at the third floor of the Double Sword Pavilion. This time, I'll not take a single Immortal Stone from you. I'll give the Dragon Blood Stone as a gift. Of course, you have to do something for me in exchange. Find me at the Third Floor of Double Sword Pavilion and we'll discuss what I want you to do in exchange for the Dragon Blood Stone!"
Ye Xiao understood that his disguise was unable to fool the old man.
It has to know that his disguise was able to fool even those Seven Dao Manifestation Realm martial artists.
Since he was unable to fool the old man, it could only mean that either this old man was more powerful than those seven old men, or he must have some sort of secret technique that could reveal the true face behind one disguise.
Ye Xiao took a deep breath.
After that, he started looking for other things. At this trade fair, he found many materials. He also bought Yue Ying some gifts and causing her to brim with happiness. She kept smiling all day long.
It was about to turn night. Ye Xiao said goodbye and returned to the inn with Yue Ying where he was staying.
