vation, after luring the Poisoned Horn Demon Ape out, it seems like you wouldn't be able to hold on for long, and you might even get injured again."Hu Yaya naturally knew all of this. She lightly bit...The auction officially began shortly.

Although this was just a small auction for the upper class, it was as formal as any regular marketplace.

The guests attending the auction each have a membership card number corresponding to an auction plate. Ye Bufan came with Qin Chuchu, so the two of them share one plate.

A well-dressed, slender female auctioneer walked onto the stage. After a few polite remarks, she announced that the auction was officially beginning.

The auction order differs from the promotional poster. The auspicious Tianzhu, listed as the first item on the poster's first page, is placed as the finale auction piece. Conversely, the unknown small black bottle becomes the first item up for auction.

The auctioneer announced the start of the auction, and a waitress in a red cheongsam walked onto the stage with a tray.

When Ye Bufan saw the small black bottle on the tray, his whole body trembled.

While others couldn't tell, as a cultivator, he immediately sensed the potent spiritual energy emanating from the small black vial. This was no counterfeit; it was a genuine artifact, a powerful spirit-binding bottle.

Qin ChuChu sensed his change and asked with difference, "What's wrong with you"

"It's okay, I might have caught a cold these past few days, my legs are just a bit cramped."

"Ye Bufan said, taking a deep breath to suppress his excitement. It was certainly not a good time to show it too obviously; otherwise, it would attract attention to the Refining Demon Bottle and drive up the bidding cost,"

At this time, the auctioneer took over the pill bottle and introduced to the audience below: "Ladies and gentlemen, this is the item brought by the Qin family."

I'm sorry to say, there isn't much information about this lot, we don't even know its name. But the more mysterious something is, the more surprises it might bring you. The starting price is 100,000, and each bid must be at least 10,000 more. Now the bidding begins!

As an experienced auctioneer, she naturally knew that the first item up for auction was generally not something valuable, especially when it came to items with no stated properties or even names.

So she didn't waste too many words and directly announced the start of the auction.

As soon as he finished speaking, before anyone else could react, Luo Wentao stood up and bowed to the audience below. "I'm sorry to inform you all,"

This lot has been favored by Master Xuanji, who has entrusted me to bid on his behalf. Now, I'm offering 1 million.

In his opinion, the things Master Xuanji valued were something no one dared to bid on. The reason he offered such a high price was entirely to give Qin Chuchu face, after all, this was an item brought by the Qin family.

"What is this bottle I don't see anything special about it. How could Master Xuanyi have taken a liking to it"

"I was originally going to take a picture to see what it was, but since Master Xuangji has taken an interest in it, I can only give up."

Everyone knows Master Xuanji's reputation, so when Luo Wentao announced that he would be bidding on this bottle in place of Master Xuanji, although there was much discussion among the audience, no one actually raised their paddles.

Qin Chuchu was astonished. This small bottle had been in their Qin family for countless years, previously ignored by everyone. Now, it was chosen by Master Xuanji at the auction.

Originally, she intended to take it back and give it to Ye Bufan, but now that was impossible. She could only whisper, "Xiao Fan, let's just not keep this bottle, okay"

Ye Bufan shook his head. "No, I have to take a picture of it."

Faced with such a powerful artifact, even if the other party was the emperor himself, it wouldn't work, let alone a highly suspicious Xuanji master.

Qin ChuChu was about to say something else, but at this time Luo WenTao said to the auctioneer on stage, "Alright, now you can hammer it down!"

"One million once, one million twice…"

The auctioneer robotically chanted a couple of times, then raised the small hammer in his hand to bring it down. Suddenly, someone shouted, "I bid 2 million."

Everyone was quite surprised, especially Luo Wentao. He had already stated that it was Master Xuanji who wanted this thing, but someone still dared to bid on it.

Turning his head, he saw that it was Ye Bufan, who was sitting beside him, holding the sign.

He angrily said, "Ye, what are you doing Didn't you hear me say this is something that Master Xuanji has taken a liking to"

Ye Bufan shook his head. "I don't know about any Xuanji Master, I only know this is an auction, the highest bidder gets it."

Qin Chuchu didn't expect him to be so persistent, and quickly persuaded, "Xiao Fan, let's just not take this bottle. No matter what else you have your eye on, I'll bid it for you."

Ye Bufan said, "I have my eye on this bottle."

He was telling the truth, but to Luo Wentou's ears it sounded like a direct challenge.

"Alright, since you like it, go ahead and take the picture."

At this moment, in his eyes, Ye Bufan was already as good as dead. Through so many years of contact, he knew Master Xuanji's temper better than anyone else. No matter who took this bottle, they would surely die.

After he spoke, he didn't raise his placard again and just sat back down.

Seeing this scene, everyone else was stunned and then started to chatter again.

"Who is this person To dare to fight with Master Xuanyji for something, isn't he tired of living"

"What a naive young fool! He's so ignorant as to not even respect Master Xuanji..."

"It's over, it's over. Master Xuanji is such a great master. With just a flick of his fingers, he can make this guy vanish into ashes..."

Qin Chuchu was even more anxious, but she had no way to deal with it.

Grandmaster Xuanji is someone you absolutely cannot offend. It seems like the only option is to try and persuade Ye Bufan to send the bottle he took to the Grandmaster.

The auctioneer stood blankly on the stage, unsure of how to proceed.

Ye Bufan smiled slightly at her: "Miss, since no one is bidding against me, shouldn't we hammer it down"

The auctioneer gritted his teeth and finally called out, "Sir, your bid is 2 million, 2 million once, 2 million twice..."

Everyone knew this vase was trouble, so naturally no one else bid. She called out the price three times before banging her gavel.

From this moment on, the Spirit Refining Bottle belongs to Ye Bufan.

Soon, a waiter walked over with a tray. Ye Bufan excitedly took the bottle into his hands and then took out his bank card, swiping 2 million on the POS machine the waiter handed him.

Although the bottle was brought by Qin Chuchu, the auction proceeds should first be given to the venue. The venue will deduct a 10% commission before returning the remaining amount to the Qin family.

Luo Wentao let out a cold snort, thinking to himself, "You stole from Master Xuanyi, just wait and see how long you can keep up this arrogance."

Ye Bufan didn't even have the mood to pay him any attention. He took the alchemy bottle into his hand, treating it like a priceless treasure. To him, it was even more valuable than any rare treasure.

Qin Chuchu sighed, it seems she couldn't go back for now, she could only wait until after.

The auction continued, and soon the second item was up for bid. It was a vase from the Qing Dynasty during the Qianlong period. It was finally bought by a wealthy businessman for 1.5 million yuan.

Ye Bufan was not interested in these antiques at all. After that, the auction proceeded very smoothly and soon came to the transfer contract of the Worldly Paradise Community.

The auctioneer raised the contract in his hand and said: "This is the well-known Paradise Garden Estate. It's nestled amidst mountains and water, with picturesque scenery. The initial investment alone has already exceeded 1.5 billion."

This bidding auction for the contract, regardless of who wins it, will grant full ownership of the Worldly Paradise Apartment Complex. The starting price is 100 million yuan, and each bid must be at least 10 million more than the previous one.
