Soul Devouring Sword Master

There was silence for a moment, Li Shanhe picked up the gavel and whispered, "Is there anyone who wants to bid more? Now it's 700 million gold coins."

Dong!

"700 million gold coins for the first time."

"710 million gold coins!" Suddenly, a clear and firm voice shouted, it was Li Xinlan.

This earth-level scroll is very much needed by our Li family, and we must get it. With this earth-level scroll, the overall strength of the Li family can be raised to a higher level, and it can be among the top five of the eight major families, Li Xinlan thought.

On the other side, Nangong Yang frowned, and didn't expect that someone would dare to raise the price. In this case, if the price is raised to 800 million, he will have to choose to withdraw.

And at this moment, another voice sounded, "720 million gold coins!"

It was Dugu Xiong.

"800 million gold coins!" Nangong Yang shouted immediately, which immediately caused a burst of exclamations. At the same time, this was also Nangong Yang's last bid. If someone else bid higher, he could only choose to give up.

The venue fell silent again. Just when Nangong Yang thought that the scroll was about to be obtained, another voice appeared, "810 million!"

Hearing the voice, everyone took a breath of cold air. More than 800 million gold coins, this is more than the value of this earth-level scroll.

However, they did not know that earth-level scrolls are in short supply. If they were to measure it by value alone, it would be a bit short-sighted. After all, no matter how much money you make, you can earn it again, but it is difficult to see an earth-level scroll once.

The price has exceeded 800 million. Nangong Yang sighed and decided to withdraw.

"830 million!" At this time, another voice shouted, it was Dugu Xiong.

It seems that the Dugu family is also extremely eager for this earth-level scroll. From beginning to end, they have no intention of giving up.

At this time, there was no voice from Nangong Yang. Although everyone was a little surprised, they soon focused on the bidding again.

Li Xinlan frowned. She didn't expect the Dugu family to be so strong. However, it had come to this point. She had no reason to let go. She said, "840 million!"

"850 million!"

"860 million!"

"......"

The two sides kept bidding, and finally, the price was raised to 950 million gold coins.

"1 billion!" Dugu Xiong gritted his teeth and shouted. This was the absolute limit of their Dugu family, nearly half of their family assets. If the other party raised the price again, he would have to give up.

On the side, Li Xinlan glanced at Uncle Nan beside her.

"Xinlan, forget it. Even if we can get this earth-level scroll, our Li family will have to sacrifice most of our family assets. It's not worth it. Forget it." Uncle Nan sighed.

Li Xinlan frowned. Although she was unwilling, she knew that Uncle Nan was right, so she could only sigh and keep silent.

Seeing this, Li Shanhe knocked the gavel.

Dong!

"One billion gold coins for the first time!"

"One billion gold coins for the second time!"

"Is there anyone who wants to bid more? This is the last time."

Li Shanhe glanced around and saw that no one was bidding more. It seemed that the Earth-level scroll would belong to the Dugu family.

On the other side, Dugu Xiong wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with a smile on his face. Although he spent a lot of gold coins, he got the Earth-level scroll after all. With this Earth-level scroll, the overall strength of their Dugu family would be greatly increased, and it would be just a matter of time before they could rank among the top five of the eight major families. As for the one billion gold coins spent, the Dugu family had more than a dozen mines, and it would take at most a few decades to earn back these gold coins.

Seeing that Li Shanhe was about to drop the hammer, everyone present thought that the scroll would belong to the Dugu family, and when Dugu Xiong and others had smug smiles on their faces, Li Shanhe suddenly frowned.

He looked down and his face suddenly changed slightly.

"Sorry everyone, I, Li, have something to do. The auction is temporarily suspended. I'll be back soon."

With that, Li Shanhe left the auction table. At the same time, dozens of top masters of the Spiritual Transformation Realm appeared on the auction table, guarding the Earth-level scroll.

Seeing Li Shanhe leave in a hurry, everyone was confused, not understanding what happened, and talking about it.

Dugu Xiong frowned slightly. For some reason, he always had some bad premonitions in his heart

"Grand Elder, this time we finally fulfilled our mission and got this Earth-level scroll." A deacon smiled at the side.

"Grand Elder, the Earth-level scroll is ours, why are you still frowning?" Another deacon asked.

Dugu Xiong said, "It's just the last hammer. Li Shanhe could have just hammered and handed the Earth Scroll to us, but he hesitated. I always feel something is wrong."

"You're overthinking it. Our Dugu family bid the highest for the Earth Scroll. As the saying goes, the highest bidder wins. If it's not ours, could it be the Li family's?"

"Maybe I'm overthinking it. I hope so." The elder said slowly.
