“Do you think you can match my price?” Wang Tao glared at Song Heng maliciously. He was about to offer a higher price, but somebody put it forth before him.
“Twenty thousand gold coins!”
It was the fat man who’d shouted out earlier. He definitely wanted the sword as he was willing to pay 20,000 gold coins for it.
“The sparkling sky sword has to be mine!”
The fat man’s face was very red right now. Those 20,000 gold coins was everything he had. He had been saving up for years.
It was quite frightening to use it all up at one time, but he thought it was worth it. Otherwise, he would not be giving his all.
However, it was a shame that even with all of his money, he still could not own the sparkling sky sword.
“Twenty-five thousand gold coins.” A smooth voice killed the fat man’s hope. It was Wang Tao’s.
Wang Tao’s face was very arrogant. He challenged Song Heng with his gaze as if he was asking if Song Heng would dare to raise the price.
Song Heng smiled widely. A person like him had no fear of challenging Wang Tao’s price.

As soon as he said that, a lot of people inhaled with surprise. Their facial expressions changed.
Thirty thousand gold coins was undoubtedly a large amount of money.
Not a lot of people had this much money, other than the people from the six authorities in the city.
A lot of people wanted to own the sparkling sky sword. However, hearing Wang Tao and Song Heng’s bids, they stopped thinking this.
One of them was the fat man. He was devastated. He secretly cursed Wang Tao and Song Heng.
“People from the six authorities of Xin Ye city certainly are rich.” A man sitting at the back could not help but say this. It was none other than Bai Chen.
He had gotten into the auction because of the invitation letter that he had obtained from the Tien Nan trade association.
It was about three months ago when he was still a tertiary formation cultivator. The Tien Nan trade association had invited him to join it. Unfortunately, he was not interested in it, so he’d declined.
Even so, Bai Chen was still one of its special customers, because he had been selling them herbs and beast cores.
That was why he had been invited to this auction.
“It’s very intense even for only a medium-grade weapon. I wonder how it will be with the high-grade pill after this,” Bai Chen muttered softly to himself while looking at the stage.
Wang Tao did not raise his bid anymore. Even though it was him, he did not have the right to spend the residence’s money as he pleased. He gritted his teeth angrily and shamefully admitted defeat after losing to Song Heng.
Wang Jong, who had been very quiet for a long while, suddenly spoke. Thirty-five thousand gold coins.”
Gasp!
A lot of people could not help but inhale deeply.
Thirty-five thousand gold coins was a lot of money. It actually exceeded the original value of the sword itself!
Hearing that, Wang Tao’s eyes instantly sparkled. Wang Jong was only second to the governor, so he could raise the price more than him.
Wang Tao turned to look at Song Heng challengingly. He wished that Song Heng would raise the price again, since he believed that Wang Jong would leave it at that.
Also, Song Heng would lose a lot of money on sword and it would not be worth it even if he got it.
“Wang Jong, you’re so wealthy. I, of the Song family, willingly relinquish it to you.” Song Heng smiled. His eyes narrowed until they formed a straight line when he looked at Wang Jong.
Wang Jong was very calm. However, his heat was bleeding. He could not help but be furious.
He’d only wanted to raise the price so that Song Heng would lose a lot more money. He did not want the sword at all.
Hua Lang and Lei Ba secretly laughed at Wang Jong’s stupidity.
Not only them, but Zi Tie, Tien Wen, and the old man Foo Kong also did.
A lot of people at the auction did. Wang Jong and Wang Tao’s faces gradually turned ugly.
“If no one would like to raise, this sparkling sky sword will be sold to elder Wang Jong.” Tien Ying smiled beautifully. She was very pleased that the price had gone to this level.
And no one wanted to make any other bids. The sword ended up in Wang Jong’s hands. He got it for 35,000 gold coins.
He was not happy about it at all. He regretted what he did.
The auction continued on very intensely. Everything was valuable. Mostly, the people who won the goods were from the authorities. Only a few of them were taken by those who were not from the five bases of power.
However, the man who got the most valuable goods in the session was not from the authorities. It was Tien Wen. He got the high-grade pill!
The pill that could help him get to the sky soaring realm!
To be honest, Wang Jong, Wang Tao, Zi Tie, Song Heng, Lei Ba, and Hua Lang were not pleased by this. They could only keep this inside since they did not have enough money to fight Tien Wen.
They all knew Tien Wen’s identity. That was why they did not plan to kill him and steal it from him. It would surely become a war between the cities if they did.
Xin Ye city and Yue Lun city’s power was equivalent. If there were to be a war, it would be hard to predict how many thousands of people would have to perish until there was a victor!
