Wedding Night: I Am Forced To Marry A Dragon Girl-Chapter 542 - : The Value of the World Stone
Chapter 542: Chapter 542: The Value of the World Stone
The faint hint of mysterious, faintly reddish aura was something that truly made one’s heart skip a beat.
Hearing Ao Yan’s concerned inquiry, Jiang Xiaobai gave a light laugh.
“Nothing much, I have it under control.”
Of course, he knew what was going on, but couldn’t tell, nor did he know how to explain it.
After all, could he reveal that he was being aided by some kind of system?
However, just thinking about the main purpose and side effects of the title gave Jiang Xiaobai a headache.
Seeing Jiang Xiaobai seemingly unwilling to speak, no one continued to press further.
Subsequently, everyone was watching the situation outside and Jiang Xiaobai took the opportunity to glance at his maligned reputation.
Good heavens, he had no idea, he was shocked at what he saw.
His spectral reputation was already over 15,000!
It was absolutely terrifying!
A large number of spectral reputation points had also brought him more than three million reputation points, but similarly, every coin has two sides.
This situation did not bode well for someone like Jiang Xiaobai who tends to calmly analyze things.
“It seems that I need to bring out the real culprit, only then will they be of use to help clear Shenqing’s name.”
Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t help but sigh, losing all interest in cultivation and observing the outside world.
Right now, all he wanted to do was have a peaceful sleep.
As time passed, it was finally time for the auction to begin.
On stage was a dazzling woman, who city didn’t recognize, handling the auction items.
The woman was not only stunning but also provocative. After her performance, hundreds of thousands of people’s eyes were drawn to her and had difficulty looking away.
“I didn’t expect that the pawnshop could manage to find such a sultry woman.”
“Their resources are indeed impressive.”
“Although this woman is pretty, I’m more interested in the legendary treasures. I came from the holy city for the treasures.”
The crowd was abuzz with conversations, many praises directed at the woman’s beauty. There were more than a few whose gaze was attached to her.
But the woman remained indifferent, seemingly not minding the crowd’s gaze, opening with a seductive tone.
“Thank you all for attending the auction hosted by my pawnshop.”
“I won’t leave you in suspense any longer, let’s get started!”
“The first lot is a token!”
As her words fell, the crowd seemed to hold their breath, all eyes focused on her hands.
As expected, she was holding a token with the word ‘heaven’ engraved on it.
“Sss, it’s the token!”
“Is that long-lost token from Towards Heaven Sect? It doesn’t look particularly special.”
“We don’t know yet if anyone from Towards Heaven Sect is here.”
Upon the appearance of the token, there was a burst of discussion on the stage; the scene was quite striking with hundreds of thousands of people talking at the same time.
It felt like being in the middle of a beehive!
The woman didn’t dawdle, saying the token was worth five world stones.
However, after the woman announced the price, no one directly bid, seemingly observing the situation.
Because the pawnshop clearly announced that it was the head token of Towards Heaven Sect.
Although it didn’t have any real functionality, its meaning was more important than its function!
Not only that, it can’t be guaranteed that Towards Heaven Sect didn’t know about the news and sent people here. If someone raised the price, it would easily fall into the hands of Towards Heaven Sect.
The sect might bear a grudge or even retaliate because of this.
After all, this is their head token!
Eventually, someone did bid a higher price.
“Six world stones.”
The crowd turned to look and immediately laughed.
Because the person who quoted was not a disciple of Towards Heaven Sect, but a member of the Heavenly Demon Sect, known for their feud with Towards Heaven Sect!
“Good, the Heavenly Demon Sect is setting its sights on the token, the Towards Heaven Sect is going to have a hard time.”
There were even people who laughed lightly, preparing to watch the show.
When the disciple of Heavenly Demon Sect finished speaking the price, the people of Towards Heaven Sect became furious.
“You damn Heavenly Demon Sect, causing trouble huh?”
“Don’t you know this is our Towards Heaven Sect’s head token?”
“Absolutely outrageous, it seems the people of Heavenly Demon Sect are seeking death.”
The crowd plied with furious rebukes.
The Heavenly Demon Sect, on the other hand, ignored it completely, not even sparing a glance at Towards Heaven Sect.
This enraged Towards Heaven Sect, who surged forth in anger, raising the bid!
Could they back down now?
Before coming, Towards Heaven Sect had already given a strict command that even at the cost of their wealth, this token cannot fall into others hands!
For Towards Heaven Sect, the head token bears an irreplaceable value.
To give it to others was unthinkable!
And it was because there was a feud between these two sects that the Heavenly Demon Sect seemed to be raising prices deliberately.
But Towards Heaven Sect couldn’t miss out on the token due to unavoidable reasons.
The competition between the two sides was extremely fierce!
In the box, AnRan and others also generally understood the outside situation and found it amusing.
“Nice, the Towards Heaven Sect and the Heavenly Demon Sect are in a dispute, well done, Heavenly Demon Sect, raise the price fiercely!”
Ao Cheng laughed, completely unconcerned about potentially attracting the hatred of Towards Heaven Sect.
After all, they were already completely on the opposite side.
After all, schools like the Heavenly Sword Sect were harassing Jiang Xiaobai under the command of Towards Heaven Sect.
If Towards Heaven Sect had shown a better attitude and directly discussed the issue with Jiang Xiaobai, Jiang Xiaobai might have offered a hand of help.
Unfortunately, they sent people directly to seize it, which was wrong.
If Jiang Xiaobai didn’t have the means, and not a strong enough strength, that would have led to his death!
This was a matter of life and death!
It can be said that Towards Heaven Sect was wanting Jiang Xiaobai dead!
The situation between the two sides was such that they were in irreconcilable discord, so why worry at this point?
However, the disciples of Towards Heaven Sect and the Heavenly Demon Sect were too engrossed in their feud to notice them.
Eventually, the Heavenly Demon Sect showed its true colours, deliberately tormenting Towards Heaven Sect, and only stopped bidding after raising the price to over 30 world stones.
Other people didn’t dare to offend Towards Heaven Sect. After all, they were not the Heavenly Demon Sect. They couldn’t just oppose Towards Heaven Sect openly, could they?
Then, Towards Heaven Sect spent 38 world stones to get the token, and one could visibly sense the relief from the disciples of Towards Heaven Sect.
Afterwards, a mysterious smile appeared on the charming woman’s face on the auction stage, and she brought out the half piece of cultivation technique.
In an instant, the entire venue fell silent, and those who knew the importance of this technique stared at the woman with the technique in her hand.
“Starting price, ten world stones, ladies and gentlemen, let’s begin.”
The woman on the stage chuckled softly, her voice sounded almost bewitching.
As soon as she finished, the people who could not wait to bid started shouting out their prices.
It seemed that these world stones were not particularly precious in their eyes!
Seeing this, Jiang Xiaobai, who had no interest so far, narrowed his eyes.
