Chaper 278: Precisely Wants to Frustrate You to Death

Everyone present calmed down and looked at Leng Yi on the stage, waiting for her answer.

Leng Yi smiled gracefully and said: “Senior Wu participated in the Tian’ling Continent Tournament of Hegemony two hundred years ago. Although he didn’t advance into the top hundred at the time, but he obtained a fortuitous opportunity in the competition space that allowed him to become a Smith, and he also met his beloved wife in that competition.

“This time, he spent ten years refining the Sumeru Light Boat to commemorate the opportunity of that year, and to auction the Light Boat here to encourage everyone.”

Leng Yi continued: “Of course, if Great Master Wu can refine one Sumeru Light Boat, then he can refine the second, so you all don’t need to be too concerned.”

Leng Yi’s meaning was obvious—Great Master Wu made the first Sumeru Light Boat to commemorate the fortuitous opportunity of that year, and his ten years of hard work had not been in vain. It was most likely that when he made the second flying-type Magic Tool, he would be more familiar with the process.

“So that’s how it is. I have long heard that Great Master Wu had met that talented female cultivator in the competition space who became his beloved companion and as such, their story became a fine tale that’s spread far and wide.”

“It seems that the chance encounter in the competition space wasn’t small, otherwise it would’ve been impossible for him to become the current Grade 5 Smith he is.”

Many people appeared as if they were given a stimulant. Great Master Wu being able to meet a fortuitous opportunity that made him turn from an inconspicuous person from a small-medium kingdom into a Grade 5 Smith who was now famous across the mainland meant that they may also be able to encounter a large opportunity.

“In such a way, we, Sword Masters who participated this time, are sharing a bit of his light.”

“I heard that Great Masters’ hobbies are all rather strange, so it’s understandable if Great Master Wu wants to commemorate that fortuitous encounter.”

Lou Mu Yan recognised that Leng Yi’s frank expression didn’t seem to be fake, but she just had a constant feeling that the reason for the Great Master’s auction was a little far-fetched.

“If that’s the case, then Miss Leng, quickly auction it.”

The people below all believed in this reason and shouted excitedly for Leng Yi to quickly auction it.

“Since everyone is so impatient, then I won’t say anymore.” Leng Yi said with a smile: “The starting price of this Sumeru Light Boat is twenty-thousand Spiritual Stones, and the price must not increase lower than one thousand Spiritual Stones each time. The auction will now start.”

“Twenty-five thousand Spiritual Stones.” As soon as she finished speaking, someone began to bid.

“Thirty thousand Spiritual Stones.”

“Fifty thousand Spiritual Stones.”

“…”

Very soon, the price was called to one hundred thousand Spiritual Stones. It seemed that the elite pupils of those large kingdoms were all prepared and rich.

“One hundred and twenty thousand.” Luo Ye’s clear voice came out slowly.

Yan Jun also wanted to bid for it, but unfortunately, he didn’t have enough Spiritual Stones, so he had to give up.

Although Ji Xuan was valued in the Empire, but he was always suppressed by that Ji Yu mother and son pair so in the resources he obtained, he had limited Spiritual Stones. He didn’t have any hope for the Sumeru Light Boat.

Ji Yu was swallowed by the evil Jiao and the interspatial ring was also swallowed together. Everyone thought that the ring was still in the evil Jiao’s belly, but no one knew that Mo Yan had devoured that evil Jiao and the ring had already landed in Lou Mu Yan’s hands.

Therefore, Lou Mu Yan was actually rolling in money right now. 

“One hundred and thirty thousand.” Si Nan shouted slovenly.

Although He’lian Lie’s empire wasn’t as good as the two of theirs, but he came with the resources of the Imperial Family and also desired the Sumeru Light Boat, “One hundred and forty thousand.”

“One hundred and sixty thousand.” An elite pupil of a superpower kingdom shouted.

“One hundred and eighty thousand.” Luo Ye continued to follow.

“Two hundred thousand.” He’lian Lie gritted his teeth.

Si Nan narrowed his eyes and shouted his baseline price: “Two hundred and twenty thousand.”

“Two hundred and thirty thousand.” Luo Ye continued.

“Two hundred and fifty thousand.” The man was obviously very confident.

“Two hundred and sixty thousand.” Luo Ye hadn’t reached his bottom price yet.

The man snorted coldly and shouted: “Three hundred thousand.”

Three hundred thousand already exceeded Luo Ye’s bottom price, and the Empire’s resources he brought were exactly this number. Although he had long guessed that the Sumeru Light Boat wouldn’t be so easy to obtain, but he didn’t expect it to be so high.

Of course, if this flying-type Magic Tool was auctioned outside, the price would definitely not be lower than five hundred thousand Low-Quality Spiritual Stones.

The price of three hundred thousand caused an uproar among the Sword Masters. This was a huge amount of money.

Everyone thought that the person who made the final bid would definitely win, and even the Sword Master himself thought so, just waiting for Leng Yi to announce the result, but who knew that he would hear a lazy and sweet voice.

“Three hundred and ten thousand.”

Everyone followed the voice to find that the person who made the bid was a peerless, purple-clothed woman, and many recognised that she was the one who auctioned the identity jade tablets before.

“This woman probably made a lot from auctioning identity jade tablets before.” Someone muttered bitterly.

There were also people who were slightly afraid of Lou Mu Yan, “She can use the venue of the Ming Chamber of Commerce Alliance to hold a small auction. This means that her background shouldn’t be average. It’s better to not provoke her.”

“This one is the Crown Prince of Nan’xun Kingdom. This Sumeru Light Boat is very important to me, so I hope Miss Lou can yield.” There was a haze in the eyes of the man who bid before.

His words made Luo Li and the others furrow their brows. Was he trying to threaten Lou Mu Yan?

“Apologies. I also like this Sumeru Light Boat. The one with the highest price will obtain it. You can bid as you please. If it can be higher than me, then this flying Magic Tool will naturally belong to you.” Lou Mu Yan hooked her lips and what she said was arrogant and unrestrained.

Using Nan’xun Kingdom to oppress her? What’s that about.

The expression of the Crown Prince of Nan’xun Kingdom darkened. This woman truly failed to appreciate one’s kindness.

How dare a person from a small kingdom be so arrogant. So what if she’s the dark horse, wasn’t she just relying on the fact that she knew Luo Li and Si Nan to fight him.

He really didn’t believe that if he and her were to actually fight, that Luo Li, Si Nan, and the others would form a bad relationship with him just because of Lou Mu Yan.

“Three hundred and thirty thousand.” He cursed Lou Mu Yan inwardly. It could have been won using three hundred thousand originally, yet who knew that an accident would occur. It would be an unhappy occurrence for anyone.

It was just that he completely forgot that this was an auction, and the one with the highest price would win—that was the truth.

Lou Mu Yan glanced at him casually, then shouted leisurely: “Three hundred and fifty thousand.”

“Young Miss Lou, are you certain that you want to spend so much money buying a flying-type Magic Tool?” The Crown Prince of Nan’xun Kingdom added with a bit of sharp, murderous intent, and even more threats.

Lou Mu Yan hated people who used their family background to oppress her the most. Her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and she said lazily: “I’ve got a lot of money and want to find a place to spend it, what can you do about it?”

…

Her answer made everyone present twitch their lips. So it turned out that she bid because she had a lot of money and nowhere to use it. She was truly arrogant and exasperating.

The Crown Prince of Nan’xun Kingdom almost spit out a mouthful of old blood. He only had three hundred and sixty thousand Spiritual Stones on him, and it was all gathered from his teammates. This woman truly was too presumptuous.

“Three hundred and sixty thousand.” Calling out his bottom price, he looked at Lou Mu Yan with deep, threatening cold eyes.

Lou Mu Yan smiled sweetly, beautiful and moving. She blinked at the Crown Prince of Nan’xun Kingdom and said, “Three hundred and sixty-one thousand Spiritual Stones.”

“You…” The Crown Prince of Nan’xun Kingdom couldn’t help but stand and point at her, but he didn’t know how to curse her.

This woman must have done it on purpose. How did she know that he only had three hundred and sixty thousand Spiritual Stones on him.

“Aye! Although I have a lot of money, but I can’t waste it.” Lou Mu Yan chuckled lightly, then raised her eyes and said to the Crown Prince of Nan’xun Kingdom with a smile: “Your Highness the Crown Prince, you can ignore me and continue to bid.”

Lao’niang precisely wants to frustrate you to death. Anyone who dared threaten her all went to hell.

As long as she wanted to win this Sumeru Light Boat, then the Crown Prince of Nan’xun Kingdom would definitely hold a grudge. Since they were going to forge a feud anyways, then it didn’t matter if she angered the other party a little more.

The killing intent in the other party’s eyes wasn’t concealed at all, and the more he was like this, the more she wanted to poke the other’s sore spot.

Moreover, this flying-type Magic Tool was a way of escape for the Lou Clan if they ever met danger, so she naturally wouldn’t yield.

Want to buy the Sumeru Light Boat? Well, then she’d definitely snatch it.
