Chapter 295: Undercurrent

No one had expected this.
The price had already reached n million origin crystals after just a few bids.
It could be said that this was very rare among the previous auction items of the Sacred Hidden Auction, let alone an auction held in this border city.
The mighty figure of the Crimson Flame Sect gritted his teeth.
This time, they had traveled thousands of miles to Dragon Enlightenment City for this Demonic Abyss Token!
But this price could be said to have far exceeded their expectations…
In the Crimson Flame Sect’s private room, a man in a black robe said, “Regardless of the price, if you bid for it, the benefits will not be insignificant.”
The mighty figure of the Crimson Flame Sect only calmed down after hearing those words. He looked at the black-robed man and said respectfully, “I understand.”
Then, he reported the price.
“12 million!”
12 million, that meant another million origin crystals were added!
Probably, the price of this Demonic Abyss Token was going to exceed 15 million.
The mighty figure of the Fortune Gate looked in the direction of the Crimson Flame Sect and frowned slightly. He said in confusion, “The foundation of the Crimson Flame Sect shouldn’t be so strong.”
“12 million is enough for the Crimson Flame Sect to spend a lot of resources.”
“In fact, it could even be said to be a serious injury!”
The liquid funds that could be used by a sect or a family faction were actually much less than what they had on the surface.
The liquid capital of 12 million origin crystals, was a lot even for a first-rate faction like the Crimson Flame Sect!
It could be said that it was impossible to take it out so easily!
Who in the Crimson Flame Sect wanted to take down this Demon Abyss Token and what was its use?
The Sect of Creation’s Almighty couldn’t understand.
Just as they were thinking, Ye Qiubai’s disguised voice sounded without hesitation.
“14 million!”
Everyone’s expressions changed!
He directly increased the bid by two million and his tone was still calm!
The expressions of Crimson Flame Sect and the Sect of Creation changed.
On the stage, Dong Xiaoqin also took a deep look at the purple-gold box.
He did have some tricks up his sleeve…
In fact, this was indeed Ye Qiubai’s scheme.
They were originally in the purple-gold box on the third floor.
The other party did not know who was in the private room. They only thought that the person in the private room with the Purple Gold Token was definitely extraordinary!
And every time he raised the price so high, it would only make others think that he was fearless!
This way, he would also release a smoke bomb.
Let the other party think that Ye Qiubai was very rich and didn’t care about this at all!
This way, he could obtain the Demonic Abyss Token more easily.
As expected, after weighing the pros and cons, the Sect of Creation snorted and said, “Then congratulations to the senior in the purple-gold box. My Sect of Creation withdraws.”
14 million origin crystals.
The origin crystals brought by the Sect of Creation were still enough to fight for it but it was extremely limited!
Since the other party was so fearless, he definitely had more origin crystals!
If the Sect of Creation hadn’t spent a large sum of money on the four pills in the first auction, they might have been able to fight for them!
But now…
He had clearly lost his qualifications…
In the private room of the Crimson Flame Sect, the expression of the mighty person changed slightly.
“Sir, 14 million has already exceeded the origin crystals we brought.”
The black-robed figure nodded. He raised his head and looked deeply at the purple-gold box. His gaze was penetrating.
It was as if they wanted to see through who was fighting with them in the private room!
“Then forget it. Let this token stay in their hands for a while.”
“Once it’s warm, you can let go.”
The pupils of the mighty figure of the Crimson Flame Sect constricted.
“Your Excellency, you mean…?”
The black-robed man’s tone was cold. “Literally, this Demonic Abyss Token is extremely important to us. We have to obtain it by hook or by crook!”
“But… the other party is someone with a Purple-Gold Token!”
The Purple-Gold Token.
Up until now, the Sacred Hidden Chamber of Commerce had only given out three!
Even the Emperor of the boundless dynasty did not possess one.
It could be seen how important it was!
At the same time, how powerful would the person with the Purple-Gold Token be?
“So what?”
The black-robed man’s body emitted a faint black demonic aura.
The Crimson Flame Sect could sense this demonic qi and took half a step back.
He released his spiritual qi and barely resisted the demonic qi.
“Anyone who opposes us and obstructs our plans must be eliminated!”
“Furthermore… the Purple-Gold Token? So what…”
Of course, the mighty figure of the Crimson Flame Sect did not hear this last sentence.
However, since the person in front of him had said so, the Crimson Flame Sect could only remain silent.
They could not afford to offend him after all!
Dong Xiaoqin scanned her surroundings, but her gaze was still focused on the three private rooms on the second floor.
“14 million origin crystals. Is there anyone else who wants to raise the price?”
Seeing that no one spoke, Dong Xiaoqin dropped the small wooden hammer in her hand.
Until the third time, when Dong Xiaoqin smiled and said, “Congratulations to the esteemed guest in the purple-gold box for obtaining this Demonic Abyss Token!”
“Also, let me remind everyone that if anyone kills and steals outside, they will be blacklisted by our Sacred Hidden Chamber of Commerce.”
“Of course, you can do whatever you want after leaving the Sacred Hidden Chamber of Commerce’s sight.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the Sacred Hidden Auction had officially ended.
The people from the various factions also left one after another.
Of course, there were also people who sat on the spot, wanting to see who the person in the purple-gold box was!
To be able to obtain the Purple-Gold Token!
In the Crimson Flame Sect’s private room, the black-robed man said, “Get ready.”
After that, the black-robed man disappeared.
The Fortune Gate’s Almighty sighed. In the end, they had no fate with them.
He wanted to get to know the people in the purple-gold box, but after thinking about it, he still prepared to leave.
Such a person would probably not show up easily.
As for the Frost Spirit Sect? They had left long ago.
Ye Qiubai and the other two had already walked out of another door in the purple-gold room.
This door could lead directly to the resting room of the Sacred Hidden Chamber of Commerce.
This lounge was the exclusive lounge of the purple-gold private room. At the same time, it was also used to secretly collect items.
When Ye Qiubai and the other two arrived at the lounge,
Dong Xiaoqin and one of the 10 Revered Elders of the Sacred Hidden Chamber of Commerce, Jian Liancheng, were already waiting here.
Seeing Ye Qiubai and the other two arrive,
Jian Liancheng opened his eyes and sized up the three of them.
In the end, his gaze landed on Ye Qiubai.
“Hmm, he’s a good seedling for a sword cultivator.”
Dong Xiaoqin took a step forward and took out two boxes with a smile. “The items you auctioned are all here.”
Ye Qiubai smiled and took it. “Thank you, Miss Dong.”
Dong Xiaoqin covered her mouth and chuckled. “You’re welcome. It’s just our
Sacred Hidden Chamber of Commerce’s investment in you.”
Ye Qiubai nodded and said, “Then I’ll barter for the 14 million yuan. Is that okay?”
Dong Xiaoqin was slightly stunned. “There’s no need to be in such a hurry.”
However, before he could finish his sentence…
Another Pure Jade Bottle appeared in Ye Qiubai’s hand…
