Chapter 195 Auction Part III
When, Xia Tian arrived at the VIP room, the room was already filled with important people. But he saw two figures he didn’t expect, they were Xia Luo and Liu Ming. Xia Luo glared at him sharply, while Liu Ming only glanced at him briefly, then looked away. πΌππΉ.πΌπ«π΄
“Oh, Xia Tian? You also want to participate in this auction?” Murong Feiyan who was also present was slightly surprised to see Xia Tian.
“Oh, Uncle Murong?” Xia Tian then walked over, and sat beside him, as he said. “There is one item that I desperately need at this auction, Uncle Murong. But it seems that it will be difficult to obtain it.”
Xia Tian then glanced at the other people, but many of them he didn’t recognize. However, his gaze fell on the figure of a young man, as the young man continued to stare at him fierecly, as if he wanted to pounce on him.
‘So he was the one who wanted to take over the Murong family’s Thousand Treasure Palace? It’s best if his father can manage his son well, otherwise I won’t hesitate to kill him.’ Xia Tian said to himself.
[That person’s cultivation isn’t very high, Master. I’m sure that you can kill him easily.]
Xia Tian nodded slightly. ‘I know that, Alice. He’s a Prince after all, so I can’t just kill him.’
Suddenly, people turned their heads towards the entrance of the VIP room, as there were quite a few people entering the room, they immediately stood up to salute them, but Xia Tian leisurely remained seated.
“Hey Brat! Why don’t you stand up and pay your respects to King Shui, and Queen Qin!” One of the people shouted at Xia Tian who was still sitting leisurely, but Xia Tian ignored his words.
“Where did this brat come from?”
“It seems he has no manners.”
“How did a brat like him get into this VIP room?”
Everyone in the room started talking about Xia Tian one by one, Liu Ming was no longer surprised by his grandson’s attitude. But Xia Luo and the prince smiled evilly at his attitude, the prince then sneered at him. “A trash like you who doesn’t know how to respect others doesn’t deserve to be here with us.”
[Ha ha! Just kill that prince already, Master.]
‘Heh, why bother with an ant like him?’
Xia Tian spread his arms while yawning, then said in a disdainful tone to the prince. “Yawn… Why should I respect him? He’s not a god, he’s not my ancestor, and he’s not my parent either.”
“Haha. He’s always been like that, My King.” Wang Xinruo said with a laugh, she then walked over to Xia Tian. “Why are you alone, Big Brother? Where is Queen Yuhe? I thought she would also come with you.”
The people’s jaws dropped to see that Wang Xinruo was familiar with Xia Tian, ??especially when she mentioned Zhu Yuhe’s name. ‘Why does concubine Xinruo address that young man as her Big Brother? Moreover, he also came with Queen Yuhe?’
Xia Luo is getting more and more clueless about Xia Tian, ??he who was previously just a cripple has now become a figure that many people know. The prince’s face also darkened seeing their closeness, and he wondered in his heart. ‘Not only the Murong family, but he is also close to Concubine Xinruo?’
Liu Ming was also shocked in his heart seeing his grandson’s closeness to Wang Xinruo, and he could only regret his actions in the past. He thought that if he had treated Liu Ying and Xia Tian better in the past, then they would definitely be able to rise his Liu family’s reputation.
Only Murong Feiyan, Shui Lihao, and Qin Shuang were not surprised at all, as they already knew about Xia Tian’s relationship with Zhu Yuhe.
“She’s still in seclusion, Little Xinruo. Since she’s on the verge of breaking through, so I don’t want to bother her.” Xia Tian then took a few bottles of pills and fruits, and gave them to Wang Xinruo. “These pills are very useful for you and Liuli, so you two can take one of each. As for the fruits, you two can eat two each.”
“Thank you, Big Brother.” Wang Xinruo immediately stored everything into her storage ring.
Although for a moment, the bottles of pills and fruits did not go unnoticed by everyone in the room, and they were very curious about them. Moreover, they could see the happy expression on Wang Xinruo’s face as she accepted everything.
“What are you thanking me for? You two are my family.” Xia Tian smiled at her, and Wang Xinruo could only nod. As for Shui Lihao, Qin Shuang, and Shui Yan, he couldn’t care less about them, as they were just strangers to him.
Of course, Wang Xinruo knew that Xia Tian’s pills were very useful, because she knew that Long Tian was very good at alchemy, and all the pills made by him were like treasures, but she was quite curious about the fruits. Shui Lihao smiled faintly at Xia Tian’s attitude towards his concubine, he could see that Xia Tian cared deeply for Wang Xinruo and Shui Liuli.
Not long after, Hua Xiangyue walked towards the center of the stage to start the auction, behind her were several other women carrying cloth-covered trays.
“Welcome to the Hua Auction House. In today’s auction, we won’t have many items to auction, but I can assure you all that these items are extremely rare.” After Hua Xiangyue finished speaking, a woman placed a tray of auction items on the table in front of Hua Xiangyue. “Without further ado, let’s start the auction.”
“The first item is Earth Grade – Flying Artifact. Prices start at 1,000,000 Gold coins or 1,000 Lower Spirit Stones, each bid is a multiple of 100,000 Gold Coins or 100 Lower Spirit Stones. Let’s start bidding.”
After fierce bidding among the people for several minutes, the artifact finally fell into the hands of the prince for 20,000,000 gold coins. A woman once again placed the next auction item on the table, but in their eyes it was just an ordinary item, and only Xia Tian smiled faintly as he looked at the item.
“The second item as you all saw, this huge jade was found in the ruins on the edge of the southern continent.” Hua Xiangyue then explained the origin of the jade.
“Isn’t it just ordinary jade, Miss Hua?” Liu Ming asked with a frown.
Xia Luo then added. “What patriarch Liu said is true, the jade doesn’t look special at all, Miss Hua.”
Xia Tian sneered at the people complaining one by one. ‘What fools! They don’t even recognize the jade and its uses.’
[They are only narrow-minded people, and their knowledge is also shallow, Master.]
Hua Xiangyue then said to them. “Sorry, but I think this jade is worth quite a lot, if you guys aren’t interested, then you don’t have to bid on this jade. The starting price is 100,000 gold coins or 100 Lower Spirit Crystals, bid a multiple of 10,000 Gold Coins or 10 Lower Spirit Crystals. Let’s start the bidding.”
