Chapter 46
“One hundred and fifty purple gold!”
Someone called out a bid, increasing the price by 50 Purple Gold each time. The voice sounded rather familiar, and everyone looked in the direction of the voice in confusion. What they saw was a bearded man with an exaggerated and coquettish smile.
Goddammit!
The first person to raise the price was actually that bearded uncle!
Everyone was shocked once again. They secretly thought that this guy’s skin was extraordinarily thick!
Some people had the urge to curse, but when they saw the ferocious and ferocious smile, they guessed that he was not someone to be trifled with. In the end, they restrained themselves and turned their fiery gazes to the eye-catching female body on the stage.
“Two hundred purple gold!”
Someone with guts went up against the bearded man. It was a skinny man, and he also raised the price by fifty purple gold.
“Two hundred and fifty!”
“Three hundred!”
“Three hundred and fifty!”
… …
The bearded man and the skinny man started a “jealous” tug-of-war. They seemed to have forgotten that purple gold was a very expensive thing.
The others were stunned as they heard the two increase the price without hesitation. Was it worth it for such a worthless thing?
“Five hundred and fifty!”
“Six hundred!”
They continued to raise the price …
“Eight hundred!”
The bearded man gritted his teeth and shouted a high price. His face was red, and his eyes were wide open!
“You win!
Hehe! ”
The skinny man gave up on raising the price and even winked at the bearded man with a sinister smile.
The bearded man suddenly realized that he was tricked by the skinny man in front of him. With a “shua” sound, he pulled out the Golden Silk Ringed Saber from his waist and said angrily, “Damn monkey!
You dare to trick me?!
I’m going to chop you up! ”
“You want to kill me with just a fool like you?
Hehe, eat sh * t!
Why don’t we go out and train after the auction is over? ”
The skinny man was not afraid of the bearded man at all. He did not plan to go out immediately. He wanted to see what was going on later. In fact, he wanted to take a few more glances at the attractive Miss Ruyue.
“Good!
Don’t sneak away later!
Hmph! ”
The bearded man obviously did not want to go out now. He was very angry that he had been cheated. However, a woman’s voice behind him made his anger disappear in an instant. He even felt that it was “worth it.”
“Hero, you are indeed a true lover. This little girl is impressed. With this pair of Mandarin Duck Pendants, you will definitely be able to find a girl you like. Alright, a pair of Purple Jade Mandarin Duck Pendants. Eight hundred purple gold per try. Is there a higher price?
Eight hundred purple gold going twice, eight hundred purple gold going thrice!
Deal! ”
Liu Ruyue’s voice sounded at the right time, praising the angry bearded man without hesitation. She also completed the first set of auction items without leaving a trace.
“Eh … Hehehe …” When the bearded man heard Ruyue’s praise, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he felt like he was floating in the air. There was only one word to describe the feeling in his heart.
He habitually scratched the back of his bald head and giggled.
“This …” Everyone else felt dizzy and started to envy the bearded man. To be able to receive such praise from Liu Ruyue, it was worth eight hundred purple gold!
Even the skinny man was a little jealous of the bearded man who was giggling foolishly. He regretted bidding for the Mandarin Duck Pendants.
… …
Xiao Chen, who was in the fourth box, saw everything clearly. He shook his head in shock and couldn’t help but sigh, “Beautiful women are indeed poisonous!”
“That’s right. Liu Ruyue is indeed poisonous. However, I would rather be poisoned to death by her …” Sha Pojun, who had been staring at Liu Ruyue with a burning gaze, heard Xiao Chen sigh beside him and subconsciously followed up. It was as if he was sleep-talking and possessed. If someone wanted to assassinate him, it would be an easy matter.
“Eh …”
Xiao Chen turned his head to look at Sha Pojun, who was staring at Liu Ruyue. He didn’t know whether to laugh or cry and shook his head. He didn’t interrupt Sha Pojun’s state and continued to look at the auction stage.
Xiao Chen was a little bored as he waited for the next auction item to appear. If the next auction items were all like this, he would leave immediately. He didn’t have so much time to waste here.
Ruyue lifted the red silk cloth on the second tray that was brought up by a servant, revealing a black dagger that was less than a foot long. She began to explain her specialty, “Next, we will begin the bidding for the second auction item. Everyone, please take a look. This dagger is not an ordinary dagger. It is a desolate sword made of black iron!”
Desolate sword?!
It was actually a desolate weapon!
All the warriors present exclaimed as they stood up. All of their gazes instantly shifted from Ruyue to the strangely shaped black dagger on the tray. Their eyes were burning with passion as they looked at Liu Ruyue, or even more so.
Desolate weapons were not comparable to ordinary weapons. Not only were they made of excellent materials, but they were also inlaid with a desolate beast’s inner core by a blacksmith master using a special method.
When a warrior used a desolate weapon, they just had to inject a strand of desolate power into the inner core of the desolate sword. The inner core would be activated and release energy into the desolate weapon, increasing the weapon’s hardness and sharpness.
Even if the materials used to make the weapon were ordinary, once it became a desolate weapon, its power would multiply. It would transform into a divine weapon that could easily cut through ordinary weapons. It could cut through iron like mud, not to mention people.
Desolate weapons had another advantage. When a warrior used a desolate weapon, he could save a lot of his own desolate power. He did not need to inject a large amount of desolate power into his weapon to increase its power. Instead, he only needed to inject a small amount of desolate power to activate the inner core of the desolate weapon to achieve the same effect, or even better.
This was very beneficial for a warrior in a long battle. No matter how strong a warrior was or how much desolate power he had, he would be exhausted after a long battle. He had to use the least amount of desolate power to achieve the best result. A desolate weapon was an effective solution to this problem.
Moreover, the higher the level of the desolate beast’s inner core, the higher the level of the desolate weapon, and the more powerful it would be.
Desolate weapons could not be made by just any blacksmith. They had to be at the grandmaster level or above. There were less than ten grandmaster level blacksmiths in the entire Desolation God Continent.
Grandmaster level blacksmiths would not easily make desolate weapons for warriors. This was because it consumed a lot of energy, which meant that desolate weapons were very rare.
In the Shadi City, perhaps only the top young masters, elders, and patriarchs of big families could have a desolate weapon.
The various advantages and rarity of Desolate Artifacts determined how precious they were. There was almost no market for them. It was no wonder that when Liu Ruyue said that the short sword was a Desolate Artifact, almost all the cultivators stood up. They did not hide the greed and passion in their eyes. They even ignored the great beauty Liu.
However, they did not know the level of this desolate sword. It should not be too low, right?
After all, black iron was a first-class material.
A portion of the crowd had already cast inquisitive gazes at the smiling Liu Ruyue, waiting for her answer.
Ruyue was very satisfied with the reaction of the crowd. Especially when she heard the exclamations coming from the private rooms on the second floor, her smile became even wider.
However, what she was going to say next would make all the warriors go crazy.
“This desolate sword was accidentally picked up by a warrior in the Death Mountain Range. He did not dare to use it because his cultivation was too low. He planned to exchange it for purple gold to buy cultivation resources, so he asked the Liu Family Auction House to auction this desolate sword.
Everyone wants to know the level of this desolate sword, right? ”
Liu Ruyue had kept the crowd in suspense. She had achieved her goal. She directly threw out a bombshell of information, “This is a fifth-grade desolate sword!”
