Chapter 687: Simply Inhumane!
“‘Since you’re auctioning these slaves, others are also allowed to bid, right?’ This was what you said earlier, isn’t it?”
Lou Qianxue ignored everyone’s fear and fury as she coldly spoke to the scarred elder.
“So bold! You dare compete with me, a Heavenly Martial Realm powerhouse, over these children? Are you sick of living?”
“Heavenly Martial Realm… Ha! Make a guess! If you expose your identity here by taking action, will you still be able to leave Tian Zhao alive?”
“You!” The elder’s face dramatically changed at once. “What do you mean?”
“You know it in your heart.” Lou Qianxue had taken part in the Martial Arts Competition in the Nandu Nation. Therefore, she could recognize the symbols of a few sects in that nation. She could tell that the symbol on this elder’s dress belonged to the Mo Xiu Sect at one glance.
What would the ending be if Emperor Ying discovered a Heavenly Martial Realm expert of the Nandu Nation in the Tian Zhao Empire before the Nandu Nation and the Tian Zhao were about to start a war.
The elder’s expression worsened, and his gaze wavered. “I’ll offer ten million taels for one!”
“Twenty million taels,” Lou Qianxue said with an indifferent expression.
“!!!Twenty million for one?” Everyone gasped. “Is she crazy? Even if she’s wealthy, this is not the way to splurge? Who exactly is she? She actually spends money without feeling any heartache at all!”
“Twenty million for one, so eighteen of them will be… Three hundred and sixty million!!! Oh my gosh! I have never seen so much money in my life. My heart cannot take it!”
“Me too! This price is insane. Even if Third Elder Hu sent these eighteen children to the auction, he wouldn’t get so much money!!!”
The scarred elder viciously looked at Lou Qianxue as his cheeks rapidly twitched. “You’re such a boastful b*tch! If you can take out three hundred and sixty million now, I’ll immediately leave and not fight with you over these slaves.”
Lou Qianxue raised her eyebrows. Then, she took out stacks and stacks of silver taels from the Mountain River Space.
“!!!”
Everyone’s breathing fluctuated as more and more of those stacks appeared. All of them stared at the auction stage in disbelief…
It was the first time they had seen so many silver taels in their lives.
Many of their faces turned red as if they were drunk.
“Unbelievable! Really unbelievable! Simply inhumane!”
“I’m convinced!”
Third Elder Hu was so agitated that he almost fainted.
The slaves, who Lou Qianxue and Lou Potian brought earlier, also stared until their eyeballs nearly fell out.
After a long time, Lou Qianxue frowned and said, “I’m short of ten million.”
The scarred elder, who was shocked and furious, came back to his senses at this moment. He greedily looked at those silver taels. “B*tch, you’re unable to take the money out, right? You’re still pretending to be a tycoon when you don’t have enough money! You’ve exposed yourself this time!”
Lou Qianxue did not even glance at him and directly looked below the stage. “Grandpa, I don’t have the full money.”
Lou Potian bitterly smiled. Although the prestige of a Heavenly Martial Realm expert intimidated him, he still flew up the auction stage and produced a stack of silver taels. “The rate at which you spend money is terrifying.”
Lou Qianxue smiled and said, “Don’t be afraid. I’ll earn it back when we return.” After saying that, she looked at Third Elder Hu, who was dazed and had a dreamlike expression. “Three hundred and sixty million! Count it. If it’s right, I’ll bring them with me.”
“Alright… Alright…” Third Elder Hu’s footsteps were light and fluttering as if he were in a dream.
Everyone below the stage also shifted their shocked gazes to Third Elder Hu. The shock in their eyes changed to envy and jealousy.
A tinge of ruthlessness flashed past the eyes of the Heavenly Martial Realm elder. “Three hundred and sixty million! This is three hundred and sixty million! If I snatch the money, grab a few of these slaves, and leave, no one here can stop me. Since this is the case…”
