Chapter 792 money has nowhere to burn
Although the Taiyi Sword Origin Pill was extremely beneficial for breaking barriers, it was not always successful, and the higher one’s cultivation, the less effective it became, reducing the chances of a breakthrough. They could handle spending three or four hundred thousand on it, but any more would not be worthwhile.Or maybe betting a bit more for one attempt could be considered, but since others had already bid up to an exorbitant two million, increasing the bid further wasn’t just a little more.
The young swordsmen who were just competing fiercely had all fallen silent, their gazes toward Mu Hanyan filled with confusion and reluctance.
"Who is that, spending two million on a Taiyi Sword Origin Pill? Is someone burning cash?" someone complained.
"It seems to be Mu Family’s Mu Hanyan who just returned yesterday," someone next to him whispered.
"The number one playboy of Heishi City?" The person took a sharp breath. It seemed he had heard about Mu Hanyan’s exploits over the past few days, hence his surprise.
"Who else but him? Didn’t you see Mu Zexian and those other young playboys sitting quietly by his side?"
"Forget it, I won’t compete with him. Two million, I’m not that foolish." The previously unconvinced were now convinced.
"Shh, keep it down." The companion next to him made a shushing gesture and cautiously moved away a bit, fearing that their voices might reach Big Playboy Mu and involve them in trouble.
It had to be admitted that Big Playboy Mu had indeed become quite renowned in the Capital.eller, Mu Hanyan didn’t hesitate and stood up, "500,000, I’ll take it."
Speaking of the Star Divination Technique, Mu Hanyan believed Ji Gaoxian might possess some genuine skills, otherwise, he wouldn’t have made such a big name for himself in the Capital. But when it came to discernment, she simply sneered; relying on him would certainly spell disaster.
Ji Gaoxian looked up at Mu Hanyan and furrowed his brow.
He had noticed her when she had bid on the Taiyi Sword Origin Pill earlier. His first thought was whether this person was here to make trouble for him again, but then considering the astronomical price of two million, he started to doubt that idea.
A Taiyi Sword Origin Pill normally cost only about 300,000 to 400,000. Mu Hanyan’s high bid of two million was less about causing trouble and more about supporting him. After all, the higher the auction price, the higher his commission would be.
This time, not even waiting for his assessment, Mu Hanyan had directly made her offer, which puzzled him.
"Young Master Mu, I must remind you that this Heavenly Star Blue Spirit Grass has not been authenticated yet. If you buy it now, whether true or false, it will have nothing to do with me, Ji Gaoxian, or the Nanyan Commerce," Ji Gaoxian couldn’t help but say.
"Nonsense, don’t I know the rules of the auction house? 500,000, this Heavenly Star Blue Spirit Grass is mine," Mu Hanyan didn’t bother to argue and looked at him with disdain. She simply didn’t want the Nanyan Commerce to get involved, hence the hasty bid.
As for the auction house rules, how could she, Big Playboy Mu, not know them? Ji Gaoxian was hardly the one to remind her.
Below the stage, there was silence; everyone looked at Mu Hanyan with confusion, wondering what she intended to do.
Although the Heavenly Star Blue Spirit Grass was rare and slightly more valuable than the Taiyi Sword Origin Pill, it hadn’t been processed into a pill yet and would normally cost around 340,000. Directly bidding 500,000 might seem like she was sabotaging the auction, but wasn’t slightly too high to be just showing support? Usually, wouldn’t someone wait for other bids, drive the price up in a lively atmosphere, and then make their move? Coming in with a high bid right from the start, she appeared very determined to win.
"Mu Hanyan, today is a grand opening celebration for others at Nanyan Commerce. If you dare disrupt their business, even the Mu Family might not be able to protect you," Mo Yanhong said coldly.
Star Illusion Thousand Machine wasn’t wrong; this so-called Heavenly Star Blue Spirit Grass was indeed a fake, and that old man had been recruited by Mo Yanhong as a plant. Earlier, when Mu Hanyan bid a high price for the Taiyi Sword Origin Pill, it already puzzled Mo Yanhong, and now seeing Mu Hanyan bidding immediately without an evaluation, Mo Yanhong grew anxious.
"Am I acting improperly? The normal price of Heavenly Star Blue Spirit Grass is just 300,000 or 400,000. It just so happens that this young master needs it; what’s wrong with buying it for 500,000? If anyone else wants it, they can bid fairly. If they don’t have the money, they should stop complaining," Mu Hanyan glanced at Mo Yanhong disdainfully.
"Dare to say this young master doesn’t have the money? 600,000, this young master will take it," Mo Yanhong was provoked by Mu Hanyan’s words, slapped the table, and stood up.
"Fine, I don’t want it anymore, it’s yours," Mu Hanyan almost couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
