Chapter 1600 (Raw 1582): Mysterious Pirate Banner

"Seven million Spirit Jades. Going once…going twice, going thrice. Deal!"

The winning bid of seven million Spirit Jades shocked everyone. With no one else bidding, Xiao Chen obtained the Dazzling Sunlight True Flame as he wished.

"Congratulations to the honored guest in VIP room 3 on obtaining the Dazzling Sunlight True Flame."

Lan Luo smiled faintly. As she looked towards VIP room 3, interest gleamed in her eyes.

She really wanted to know who exactly the honored guest in VIP room 3 was.

To think that this person dared to risk offending Yan Xin at the critical moment to help her.

However, it was clear that Lan Luo overthought this. Xiao Chen purely wanted to obtain the Dazzling Sunlight True Flame.

No matter what Xiao Chen did, he would end up offending the other party, so he might as well just go all the way.

In a real bidding war, the final price of the Dazzling Sunlight True Flame might have reached ten million Spirit Jades.

Such a price was more than it was worth. Furthermore, Xiao Chen could suppress the other party, dealing him a psychological blow.

Who told Yan Xin not to dare to enter a bidding war with Xiao Chen, deterring others from calling out their bids as well?

"Big Brother Xiao Chen, do you really have seven million Spirit Jades?"

Fei`er was somewhat flabbergasted. Xiao Chen was truly rich. To think that he could take out so many Spirit Jades in one go.

Xiao Chen had two million Medial Grade Spirit Jades on hand. Even at the most disadvantageous exchange rate, he could obtain at least two hundred million ordinary Spirit Jades.

Naturally, seven million was nothing difficult.

"Big Brother is Big Brother indeed, truly domineering."

Xiao Suo felt very happy. Originally, he had been worried about Xiao Chen's financial capabilities. Now, he was no longer worried.

At the same time, he was startled. Who exactly is this Xiao Chen?

Xiao Chen can summon a late-stage Major Primal Core ferocious beast and is incredibly wealthy. Furthermore, his strength is unfathomable.

Could Xiao Chen be an elite disciple of a Rank 3 sect that came out for experiential training? After thinking about it, Xiao Suo felt that this was plausible.

Perhaps Xiao Suo might have followed the right person.

As the auction continued, Xiao Suo kept his eyes open wide, hoping to be able to bid on the most expensive treasure.

This was the mentality of men. Since someone else was paying, he would definitely get the most expensive one. If it was something cheap, he would feel like he was cheated.

In reality, he did not realize that no matter whether it was cheap or expensive, he got it for free.

Xiao Chen just smiled and let Xiao Suo continue thinking this way. Right now, he wanted to get a sword for Luo Nan.

Xiao Chen remembered what he promised the other party.

"Next up in the auction is a treasure sword, the Cold Wind Sword, a Superior Grade Profound Tool. More importantly, It was forged by the Grave Sea's Master Swordsmith Qian Tie. The quality is guaranteed!"

The moment Lan Luo said that, the crowd erupted in discussion.

"Unexpectedly, it is the work of Master Qian Tie! Just Master Qian Tie's name is worth one million Spirit Jades."

"I don't know who sent it over. To think that he did not use Master Qian Tie's work for himself!"

"You can't say that. That person might be a bladesman. Perhaps that person requires Spirit Jades to make a breakthrough."

"Right, right. Everything is possible. Since the Purple Cloud Pavilion said it is Master Qian Tie's work, it's guaranteed."

Xiao Chen entered deep thought when he heard all this. Then, he looked at Xiao Suo and asked, "Is this Master Qian Tie very famous?"

Xiao Suo nodded and replied, "That is natural. He is one of the top ten refiners in the Grave Sea Cluster; his accomplishments in forging swords have reached the peak. Few people can compete with him. This sword should be one of the master's early works. However, its value will definitely be extraordinary."

"The master generally stays in the Grave Sea. People frequently risk danger to cross the sea to seek a sword!"

The Grave Sea!

The center of every cluster was a boundless sea. That was a truly starry sea.

The seawater had formed from the many ancient stars' dissolution and was not water in the normal sense. The bottom of these starry seas all had ferocious beasts.

Ordinary people could not go underwater. Just a splash could smash a Veritable Personage cultivator to death.

The center of the Grave Sea Cluster was the Grave Sea.

That place was called the Grave Sea because that boundless sea had many strange graves dotting it.

Even until today, it was a place akin to a forbidden land.

However, the resources, Spiritual Energy, and natural treasures found in the Grave Sea were all of the very peak in the outer realm.

All the Rank 3 sects in the Grave Sea Cluster flocked there, making it a place where the true elites congregated.

Even pirates strived to be able to enter the starry seas.

There were many independent starry seas in the universe, all of them famous forbidden lands of the Great Thousand Realms. Being able to seek success in such places was an honor for pirates.

After a pirate barged into a starry sea once, they secured bragging rights for the rest of their life.

Xiao Chen collected his thoughts. When the bidding started, Xiao Chen contemplated for a moment before deciding to get this sword for Luo Nan.

"The Cold Wind Sword has a starting bid of one hundred thousand Spirit Jades. Swordsmen who are interested in competing for it, you may start calling your bids." Lan Luo finished the introductions and announced the start.

No matter where it was, cultivators who used the sword always remained mainstream.

The bids soared very quickly. However, the flurry was not as exaggerated as the sale of the Dazzling Sunlight True Flame had been. After all, not everyone was as wealthy as Alchemists.

When the price reached one million, the competition started to thin out.

"One and a half million Spirit Jades!"

Suddenly, the Ice-Snow Sword, Luo Feng, made a bid. The remaining swordsmen competing for the sword could not help silently shaking their heads. Then, they stopped raising the price.

Firstly, they were unlikely to be wealthier than Luo Feng. Secondly, they feared Luo Feng's revenge for this.

However, Luo Feng's bid did not last for long. Xiao Chen called out an offer from VIP room 3.

"One million six hundred thousand Spirit Jades."

"Crack!"

Inside the room, the wine cup in the Ice-Snow Sword's hand instantly shattered. Luo Feng's expression turned so cold, it looked somewhat scary.

"Senior Brother, how about I go look for Elders from our side to borrow some Spirit Jades? There's no need to fear this Xiao Chen," one of Luo Feng's junior brothers suggested.

Luo Feng's lips curled up in a cold smile. "There's no need. Since he likes it, he can have it. As long as he survives to do so!"

When Xiao Chen made his bid, the entire place was shocked. Unexpectedly, Luo Feng did not counter with a raise.

However, after thinking about it, they understood. Luo Feng and Yan Xin were preparing to rob Xiao Chen after this was over.

"This Xiao Chen is truly seeking trouble for himself. After offending Yan Xin, he now offends the Ice-Snow Sword."

"It's over."

Inside his VIP room, Xiao Chen's expression remained calm and was rather happy. Naturally, he was happy because he could keep the bid of what he wanted to buy low.

As for the discussions in the hall below, he chose to ignore them.

While one was alive, one could not possibly lack the right to buy something.

There was no such logic as far as he was concerned.

"Big Brother Xiao Chen, this sword…" Luo Nan asked as he looked at Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen nodded and said, "I'm buying this sword for you."

When Luo Nan heard that, he rejoiced. This Ice-Snow Sword was personally forged by Master Qian Tie. It must be top-tier among Superior Grade Profound Tools.

As swordsmen, who did not like having a sword that they admired?

"However, that Cold Wind Sword…" Nevertheless, after some time, Luo Nan started to worry.

Xiao Chen said indifferently, "It's fine. There are many things in the world that one can endure and give way. However, if one has to fear even when buying a sword, then what is the point of coming to this Purple Cloud Pavilion?"

Most importantly, Xiao Chen never feared those two from the very start.

"Congratulations to VIP room 3 on obtaining Master Qian Tie's Cold Wind Sword for one million six hundred thousand Spirit Jades."

Lan Luo's beautiful eyes brimmed with puzzlement. She was now even more curious about the identity of the person in VIP room 3.

However, she had more important things to do right now.

Now, she came to the last item of the Purple Cloud Pavilion's annual large-scale auction.

"Next up, this auction item is somewhat special and is also the last treasure of today. It is a banner, an ancient pirate banner…"

After that, Lan Luo's subordinate brought the auction item to the platform and pulled off the red cloth.

A shabby scarlet banner appeared before everyone.

The banner pole was corroded and stained. The scarlet banner was tattered, and its design was no longer clear.

However, the ancient aura of the pirate banner shocked everyone when they sensed it.

"This is an extremely ancient pirate banner. Although our appraiser did not manage to identify its origins, it definitely has at least ten thousand years of history.

"This was found by a cultivator in the depths of the Grave Sea. This is enough to prove that the pirate banner's master possessed an incredible identity back then."

Lan Luo did her best to explain the pirate banner's history, pulling in everyone present.

"The starting bid of the pirate banner is five million Spirit Jades. Any interested friends can start the bidding."

However, when Lan Luo announced the starting bid, displeased sounds came from the crowd.

This pirate banner was actually pretty good. Just its historical value was worth one million Spirit Jades. If by chance—even a one-in-ten-thousand chance—the previous owner of this pirate banner was extraordinary, then it would be very worth the one million to buy it and research it.

However, such a pirate banner would be worth only one million Spirit Jades. Anyone who bought it for more than that would just be a foolish spendthrift.

Past five million Spirit Jades, the buyer would be an idiot, worse than a fool.

"Big Brother, buy it. I want it!"

When the pirate banner appeared, Xiao Suo became utterly excited. Then, he very excitedly urged Xiao Chen to bid on it.

"Pu!"

Xiao Chen spat out his wine. Then, he put down his wine cup and looked at Xiao Suo. "Are you sure?"

I might have money, but it should not be squandered like this.
