Chapter 1920 379: Nothing Left to Live For
Looks like I've overplayed my hand, and pushed the price too high. If the other party bids again, he won't say a word.
Seeing that no one has bid for so long, Zhang Yaoyao on the stage prepares to call it: "One Spiritual Pearl of the Mysterious Immortal First Realm, going once!"
"One Spiritual Pearl of the Mysterious Immortal First Realm, going twice!"
"Mysterious..."
After hesitating for a long time, the woman in red couldn't stand it any longer and continued to compete with Lin Yifan.
Besides, she felt that this information wasn't baseless, she seemed to have heard this news recently, so she took a gamble.
"Two Spiritual Pearls of the Mysterious Immortal First Realm!"
"Wow!"
The bidders in the auction house couldn't believe the woman in red was still bidding. It seemed the price would continue to soar.
"The Black Wind Auction is really hitting the jackpot."
"Encountering these two foolish patrons, it's hard not to profit."
"Sigh! For an unverified news, is it worth such a desperate effort?"
...
Lin Yifan also thought, for an unverified news, why fight so hard?
Since you're bold enough to follow, then I'll pull back.
So he decided not to raise his hand to bid anymore.
Zhang Yaoyao glanced down at Lin Yifan, wanting to see if he would continue bidding.
Seeing Lin Yifan silent for a long time, he might have given up bidding.
Alright, since the price can't be raised, let's call it.
The woman in red's eyes panicked. Why did this man stop bidding at the Mysterious Immortal First Realm price? Was he playing her?
She felt impulsive, falling into someone else's trap.
In vain of her lifetime of fame, she ended up being tricked by this man.
"Two Spiritual Pearls of the Mysterious Immortal First Realm, going once!"
"Two Spiritual Pearls of the Mysterious Immortal First Realm, going twice!"
"Two Spiritual Pearls of the Mysterious Immortal First Realm, going three times!"
"Sold!"
"Bang!"
With the final hammer strike, the woman in red was completely stunned.
Not only her, the other bidders were also stunned.
They thought Lin Yifan would struggle further, but unexpectedly, he didn't struggle at all.
"Is this guy just tricking people?"
"I feel like he's not a Mysterious Immortal Realm expert."
"Wow, this is interesting."
...
Zhang Yaoyao couldn't care less about these. Anyway, their auction house made money, and that's it.
After the Immortal's Cave Mansion of the Mysterious Immortal Fifth Realm has been paid for, they'll truthfully inform the woman in red. And now, it's time to announce the end of the auction.
"I declare this auction is over!"
The woman in red was completely limp in her chair, feeling life hadn't benevolent.
Two Spiritual Pearls of the Mysterious Immortal First Realm! Those were painstakingly begged from her elders, only to be wasted on an uncertain piece of news.
In the next moment, her gaze angrily looked towards Lin Yifan below.
It's all because of that damned man, forcing her to continue bidding.
Whether he truly couldn't afford to bid further or purposefully played her, she decided to confront the man, and uncover his true face to see if he was the boy who stole her Blood Yin Banner.
Lin Yifan's lips curled slightly, feeling very pleased inside.
That stupid woman may be busty but brainless, easily falling for it, yet dares to practice Evil Techniques. With such intelligence, even a century of cultivation wouldn't be perfected.
With the auction over, all winning bidders needed to go backstage for payment and collection of items.
Lin Yifan, guided by the staff, went backstage, then presented the price he'd bid earlier to collect his item.
After receiving the unusually patterned stone, he left.
The woman in red had many tasks to arrange, so she instructed her subordinates to track the man in the black veil and hat.
Actually, Lin Yifan also wanted to follow the woman in red, because if the news were true, he could possibly get a Constellation Bead.
Not only him, others had similar thoughts.
They weren't bidding because they planned to track, and without spending any money, participate in the competition for Constellation Beads and other treasures.
Leaving the Black Wind Auction, Lin Yifan quickly disappeared into the streets, conducting counter-surveillance.
The Great Immortal Realm followers chasing Lin Yifan found him vanishing quietly, so they searched around.
After searching for a long time and still couldn't find him, they went back to report to the woman in red.
The woman in red was surprised after hearing that.
If he's someone who could evade Great Immortal Realm experts, he might be a Mysterious Immortal Realm expert.
However, the boy who stole her Blood Yin Banner also had extremely hidden escape spells, so it wouldn't be surprising if it was him.
No news meant waiting for news, she had signed a contract with the Black Wind Auction.
The Black Wind Auction would hunt Lin Yifan for a year, and if Lin Yifan appeared in their sights, he'd be doomed.
The news of the Immortal's Cave Mansion in the Mysterious Immortal Fifth Realm, she heard it completely.
The Black Wind Auction would go there to investigate, and if it's true, everyone would compete for treasures based on their abilities.
With the assurance from the Black Wind Auction, the woman in red was relieved, at least the Immortal's Cave Mansion wouldn't be very fake.
In fact, if it weren't for the many experts beside the woman in red, the Black Wind Auction might not even take her.
This was entirely to make an influential friend with a strong backing.
The woman in red had already considered this point, for such organizations that only operate in the World of All Things, she didn't care a bit, so no matter what the Black Wind Auction does, she wouldn't feel grateful even slightly.
Three days later, two squads with preparations made secretly set out at night.
Although their movements were hidden, they were spotted by trackers observing them 24/7, so they were followed.
Actually, this was within the Black Wind Auction's prediction, and they wouldn't sit idly.
Those people wishing to gain treasures without paying were dreaming.
So, after leading the trackers to a preconceived ambush, they started slaughtering them.
The cultivators tracking them never expected the Black Wind Auction to set an ambush to kill them.
They had contributed to the Black Wind Auction, how could they be so cruel?
Regretting was useless, only desperate resistance remained.
Unfortunately, the Black Wind Auction was filled with experts, they weren't opponents, all were wiped out.
Lin Yifan discovered someone tracking the Black Wind Auction, avoiding early exposure, stayed behind the tracking group; thereby, he escaped the disaster.
"These people are truly sinister and cunning, having a plan all along, fortunately I was smart, following far behind, or I'd be trapped."
Lin Yifan sighed inwardly, it was really dangerous.
On the other side, after slaughtering the trackers, the Black Wind Auction and the woman in red continued onward.
They believed there would still be trackers, so they maneuvered around several times nearby, confirming there were no more trackers, they continued on.
Days later, they reached a picturesque place, and according to the news, the Immortal's Cave Mansion of the Mysterious Immortal Fifth Realm was nearby.
