Chapter 652: Whoever tries to rob, I will kill!
If they truly angered Da Tianxiong, the consequences would be extremely severe.
"Since Young Master Da Tian has spoken, we naturally need to give him this face!"
"Yes, we're all part of the martial world, it's only right to lift each other up, haha!"
Immediately, a group of people bowed their fists to Da Tianxiong, showing their understanding.
Da Tianxiong nodded in satisfaction. Just as he was about to thank everyone, an untimely voice suddenly echoed throughout the venue.
"Heh, thinking you can take the Dragon Bone Knife for just ten billion is a bit too beautiful of a thought, isn't it? Others may fear the Da Tian family, but I, Yang Liu the Tyrant, do not!"
"Fifteen billion!"
Yang Liu the Tyrant reported the price of fifteen billion straightforwardly, his voice loud and commanding, intimidating everyone present.
Everyone was stunned; they hadn't expected Yang Liu the Tyrant to dare confront Da Tianxiong like this!
Da Tianxiong instantly became furiously angered, his gaze sharply fixed on Yang Liu the Tyrant as he gritted his teeth and reprimanded, "Yang Liu the Tyrant, are you tired of living?"
Hearing the harsh tone of Da Tianxiong, Yang Liu the Tyrant scoffed, "Da Tianxiong, who the hell do you think you are, you think I'm really afraid of you? Put away your arrogant demeanor; your prided Da Tian clan means nothing to me!"
Hearing Yang Liu the Tyrant's words, everyone around couldn't help but exclaim in shock.
No one expected this guy named Yang Liu the Tyrant to be so overbearing and fearless of Da Tianxiong's status and power.
Yang Liu frowned; she really didn't want the two parties to fall out.
It was known that Yang Liu the Tyrant was the son of the Yang Liu family, and Da Tianxiong was also the eldest son of the Da Tian clan; both identities were extraordinary.
"Good, good, good! You've got guts!" Da Tianxiong shouted through gritted teeth.
"Twenty billion!" Da Tianxiong slammed the table fiercely and said coldly.
"Twenty billion and five hundred million!" Yang Liu the Tyrant also shouted back, teeth gritted.
He was not afraid of Da Tianxiong; his own father was the Family Head of the Yang Liu family, and his strength had even reached the realm of a Saint. In Wo Country, who would dare offend the Yang Liu family?
Hearing this amount, Ye Ling couldn't but marvel silently at the enormous sums being thrown around; a simple auction was incurring expenses of twenty billion, and by the looks of it, there was more to come.
"Twenty-one billion!" Da Tianxiong shouted coldly.
"Twenty-five billion!"
"Twenty-six billion!"
...
The bidding between the two men grew increasingly fierce; the price had already exceeded thirty billion and was still climbing.
Seeing this, Yang Liu on stage struggled to hold back her smile; such a high price would definitely earn her a sizeable commission, but in order to avoid a mess, she had to steel herself to mediate between the two men.
"Gentlemen, we're all wise here, why ruin the mood over this little amount of money, Young Master Da Tianxiong, please consider..."
Before Yang Liu could finish her words, Da Tianxiong, visibly impatient, interrupted her, "Enough, no need to waste words with me. I'm taking this Dragon Bone Knife, and whoever dares compete with me for it, I'll kill them!"
Hearing Da Tianxiong's threat, the surroundings instantly became silent.
Everyone was frightened by Da Tianxiong's arrogance; no one dared to contend with him for the Dragon Bone Knife anymore, and with Da Tianxiong's bloodthirsty demeanor, they were genuinely worried about provoking disaster.
"Heh, you really think I'm afraid of you? Three billion!" Shui Ye Ba Dao shouted with a flushed face and a thick neck. From his expression, it was evident that he was truly enraged.
The bid of three billion had reached his limit. If Da Tianxiong were to increase the bid further, he simply couldn't afford it, as it was all his fortune!
Upon hearing Shui Ye Ba Dao's auction price, Da Tianxiong's face tensed instantly, and he was speechless, as the price had far exceeded his expectations.
He was also a fierce character. After a moment of silence, Da Tianxiong took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, "Shui Ye Ba Dao, you're ruthless!"
After speaking, Da Tianxiong stood up, flung his sleeves, and walked away with several guards.
It seemed that he was struck by Shui Ye Ba Dao's price and had no choice but to leave.
As Da Tianxiong's figure disappeared, Shui Ye Ba Dao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Yang Liu, excited, waved the auction hammer and struck it hard on the table: "Three billion for the first time, three billion for the second time, three billion for the third time, congratulations to Mr. Shui Ye Ba Dao of the Shui Ye family for acquiring this precious Dragon Bone Knife at the price of three billion!"
"Whooosh!"
As soon as Yang Liu finished speaking, a wave of enthusiastic applause erupted throughout the auction hall.
After paying, Shui Ye Ba Dao looked at the Dragon Bone Knife in his hand, unable to contain his astonishment.
If he were to present this knife to his grandfather, his status within the family would undoubtedly improve. This time, his grandfather would surely reward him.
"Let's go, no time to delay, let's hurry back to the family!" Shui Ye Ba Dao reined in his thoughts and ordered the guard beside him.
Shui Ye Ba Dao led more than ten guards, quickly exited the auction, and hurried non-stop to the Shui Ye family.
Ye Ling noticed that shortly after Shui Ye Ba Dao had set out, several subtle traces swiftly passed by, seemingly following him.
"Heh, why do I get the feeling that Shui Ye Ba Dao is about to be robbed? Come on, let's follow and see!" Ye Ling said to Ye Jiu and Gao Quan beside him.
Ye Jiu and the other nodded and leisurely hid in the shadows, trailing behind Shui Ye Ba Dao, and in the blink of an eye, they were out of the city.
Moreover, Ye Ling spotted some familiar figures among them.
Some Ye Ling had seen at the auction, while a few others were strangers they hadn't met before.
"These people are all after Shui Ye Ba Dao!" Ye Ling squinted his eyes and murmured softly.
Ye Ling's guess was correct; these people were indeed after Shui Ye Ba Dao.
To be precise, they were after the Dragon Bone Knife in his hand. After all, the knife had greatly enticed them, and it was understandable they would take risks to obtain it.
"Looks like, I'm about to unleash a massacre tonight!"
Ye Ling stroked his chin, grinned, showing a row of pearly white teeth, giving him a somewhat sinister look.
"Boss, those five guards around Shui Ye Ba Dao are not simple characters. If we rashly appear, we might encounter danger," Ye Jiu quietly cautioned Ye Ling.
"Let's wait and see. We shouldn't act rashly, otherwise, they'll detect us," Ye Ling shook his head and said.
"Hmm, let's observe from the shadows, wait for an opportunity, wipe out the Shui Ye family's people, and then plunder their wealth!"
Ye Jiu rubbed his hands together excitedly, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
