Chapter 3131: Chapter 3126: A Threat?_1
Someone dares to compete with Yanhe Celestial for an item? This person must truly have no regard for his own life.
Although the voice seemed to be coming from an elegant room as well, the person did not seem to be aware that Yanhe Celestial attending this auction was considered an unprecedented event. It could be said that his presence here was already beneath his status.
And yet someone dares to compete with him? This is truly courting death.
"This is going to be interesting."
"Haha, I can’t wait to see how this develops. Offending Yanhe Celestial usually doesn’t end well."
People whispered among themselves with different opinions, but most were eager to see how this spectacle would unfold.
Unsurprisingly, a chill could be sensed coming from the elegant room where Yanhe Celestial was. It seemed as if even Dao Intent Inscriptions had begun to emanate from it, the sense of coercion and threat becoming more apparent.
"Your Excellency, you seem unfamiliar, but I don’t care who you are. I just hope that if you know what’s good for you, you’d give me, Yanhe Celestial, some face. This Danyang Red Snowflower is for my Lord of Dusk. So, from the moment this flower appeared, its name was already written upon it. I hope you can think clearly about this and avoid bringing calamity upon yourself."
With each word, Yanhe Celestial became more forceful, even using the title of Lord of Dusk to oppress the other party directly.
People shook their heads, feeling that there was no more fun to be had in this situation. With Yanhe Celestial using Lord of Dusk’s name to pressure others, how could Yang Chen still dare to compete?
"56 million!" Yanhe Celestial casually increased the price by one million.
His true intention was all too clear: he only wanted to increase the price slightly to save face and snatch the item.
Ling Shuang and Chunyue looked at Yang Chen with trepidation and anxiety. "Young Master, this..."
"60 million." Yang Chen calmly offered his bid.
This time, he didn’t let Ling Shuang and Chunyue speak but directly announced his price himself.
When his offer fell, there was an instant uproar in the venue.
"Is this person really seeking death?"
"This is too interesting. Yanhe Celestial is actually being shown up. This person really has no respect."
"Sixty million. Yanhe Celestial only dared to add one million earlier. This unknown expert is simply provoking him."
As the situation became more interesting, more people wanted to see what would happen next.
Yanhe Celestial’s face turned livid with rage, his veins bulging and anger burning. He growled, "Fine, fine, fine. Your Excellency, you really want to bring misfortune upon yourself. 62 million!"
After grinding his teeth for a long time, Yanhe Celestial only managed to squeeze out this much Spirit Stones.
It should be noted that the Lord of Dusk truly wanted the Danyang Red Snowflower, but he only gave Yanhe Celestial 58 million Spirit Stones in the first place.
If Yang Chen didn’t compete, Yanhe Celestial could pocket some extra Spirit Stones. But now that the price had been raised to this level, he had been the one to increase it.
Yang Chen, on the other hand, appeared nonchalant, still remaining calm. "70 million."
At his current level of cultivation, Taiyuan Pills were of little use to him, so he was not stingy about spending them.
Yanhe Celestial, on the other hand, clenched his fists, his anger almost driving him mad. His hand opened and closed repeatedly, a sign of his inner struggle.
After hesitating for a while, he finally growled, "Kid, I see you’re determined to make enemies with me."
He also found it interesting that Yang Chen would dare to ignore his threats. This kid was truly courting death!
Yang Chen remained unmoved, saying, "If Daoist Friend really wants to compete, bid with Spirit Stones."
Driven insane by anger, Yanhe Celestial scoffed, "Hehe, Daoist Friend, I don’t mind if you want to spend 70 million on this Danyang Red Snowflower. What I’m worried about is that after spending 70 million, you’ll end up losing both your money and the item."
As Yanhe Celestial finished speaking, his voice disappeared.
Everyone could guess that he was clearly planning to attack Yang Chen.
After all, the Sky Shadow Market was a chaotic place where attacks were commonplace. As for those with backgrounds and connections like Yanhe Celestial, killing someone would be considered normal, and no one would dare to interfere.
"This person is really courting disaster."
Many people sighed and lamented, showing sympathy for Yang Chen’s imminent plight.
Ling Shuang and Chunyue were also worried for Yang Chen.
Yang Chen could clearly understand the message, but he simply smiled and shook his head. It seemed that the chaos of the Sky Shadow Market was not a baseless rumor.
However, unfortunately for those who wished him ill, he still wouldn’t back down.
Not saying a word was his best counterattack.
Lei Jie, who was between Yang Chen and Yanhe Celestial, could only pretend to be clueless and laugh foolishly, "Seventy million once, seventy million twice, seventy million three times."
"Since no one is competing, the Daoist Friend from Cui Xuan Pavilion will take this Danyang Red Snowflower."
"Chunyue, Ling Shuang, help me bring the item."
Chunyue and Ling Shuang quickly went down and obediently fetched the Danyang Red Snowflower.
When the treasure was retrieved, Yang Chen glanced at it and nodded slightly. With the Danyang Red Snowflower in hand, reaching the Peak of No-Boundary would no longer be a difficult task.
Having finished his thoughts, Yang Chen glanced at the other treasures that were up for auction.
Unfortunately, although these closing items were valuable, including an Emperor Divine Tool, they held little significance to Yang Chen, and he didn’t pay much attention to them.
"Let’s go." Yang Chen decided to get up and leave.
Chunyue and Ling Shuang thought Yang Chen was worried about Yanhe Celestial’s retaliation and wanted to leave as soon as possible. Naturally, they followed closely behind him.
Yang Chen claimed his treasure, and after handing over the Taiyuan Pill, he left without delay, not lingering at all.
Many people noticed Yang Chen’s departure and snickered to themselves, thinking that Yang Chen must be afraid of Yanhe Celestial’s revenge and had chosen to flee hastily.
If everyone else noticed, how could Yanhe Celestial not? As soon as Yang Chen left the Chamber of Commerce, he immediately followed suit.
Yang Chen wasn’t ignorant of Yanhe Celestial’s stalking, but he remained outwardly calm as they left the Sky Shadow Market and headed towards a desolate mountain range.
Upon reaching this mountain range, Yang Chen gradually slowed down, "Fellow Daoists, having followed me for so long, isn’t it about time for you to show yourselves?"
"Hmph, this place is not bad. Quiet and deserted,"
As he spoke, an old man with a goat-beard appeared, and by his voice, it was easy to tell that he was Yanhe Celestial, who had threatened Yang Chen in the auction house.
Two other people stood beside Yanhe Celestial. All three of them had Boundaryless Cultivation.
