Chapter 462 -2 Fully Armed! Longyan Old Ancestor_3
“Exactly, it’s a fair competition, based on our own abilities.” Someone spoke up from the box of the Liu Clan from Chu Yun, “Master Shouzhe, while we do share some friendship, I cannot pass up on this item.”
“We, the Yuwen Clan from Xincheng, also want this item. Let’s all compete fairly and not be calculative.” The far-flung Yuwen Clan from Xincheng also made their voices heard.
A faint smile emerged on the corners of Wang Shouzhe’s mouth.
It was necessary to stake a claim early on. That way, the bidding war that followed would be seen as them not giving face to the Wang family, instead of the Wang family not giving face to them.
It was just a bit of scheming, all for the sake of avoiding unnecessary trouble. Wang Shouzhe was keen to avoid unnecessary disputes.
Of course, if anyone truly failed to understand the situation, the Wang family wouldn’t fear making enemies.
“One hundred fifteen thousand.”
“One hundred twenty thousand.”
“One hundred forty thousand.”
“One hundred eighty thousand. I, Wang Mou, need this item greatly for my brother to become a disciple of Master Danding.” Wang Shouzhe spoke loudly, “If anyone wants to compete, my maximum limit is three hundred thousand. If anyone is willing to exceed this price, I would admit defeat.”
Three hundred thousand?
Surprised gasps and murmurs arose from the various boxes.
This price had exceeded the market price of the Earth Mother Spirit Liquid by more than double. It had also greatly passed their mental threshold.
The few out-of-town prominent families fell into silence, one after another.
The wealth showcased by the Wang family was somewhat terrifying.
Is this newly risen celestial prominent family so rich?
The message Wang Shouzhe’s words undoubtedly transmitted to them was clear. Either outbid three hundred thousand to acquire the item, or withdraw. If they were to help raise the price to three hundred thousand for the Hundred Treasures Pavilion against Wang’s family, it would definitely invite their displeasure.
All prominent families would weigh the pros and cons carefully. After all, their greatest desire was for their clans to prosper indefinitely. If they went around offending everyone like mad dogs, it would inevitably lead to a downfall sooner or later.

“Out of respect for the Wang family, my Liu Clan from Chu Yun will not compete. Liu Mou will consider other methods.” The head of the Liu clan from Chu Yun was the first to back down.
His son, Liu Yunlong, was happily tagging along with Wang Luoqiu at the Academic Palace. It was something he couldn’t ignore.
“Alright then, my Yuwen Clan was just trying our luck here. If it’s not meant to be, we should let it go.”
“Haha, the Wang family is indeed ambitious and has a hidden depth.” A hearty laugh came from the box of the Sun Clan, “If the price exceeds three hundred thousand, the Sun Clan cannot afford it. Master Shouzhe, you’re always welcome to be our guest along with Old Ancestor Longyan.”
The money they had was not gained from the wind. With this price, they could buy two servings of Earth Mother Spirit Liquid elsewhere. It wasn’t worth it for them to create unnecessary conflict with the Wang family.
The more ancient a prominent family, the more descendants it has, the higher their expenses. They would always have their own considerations and evaluations regarding any deal.
“One hundred eighty thousand, sold. Congratulations to the Changning Wang Family on winning the bottle of ‘Earth Mother Spirit Liquid’.” The elderly auctioneer’s face somewhat darkened.
He had originally estimated that because of the special demand for the Earth Mother Spirit Liquid, it could fetch a price upwards of two hundred thousand.
However, the Wang family’s unexpected interference ended up making it sell for only one hundred eighty thousand.
The Wang family played such a ruthless trick. And moreover, they played their trick after bidding three thousand more than the market price, clogging up his throat. He didn’t know whether to react or not. It was indeed hard for him to swallow.
“Thank you all for your concessions.” Wang Shouzhe said loudly, “Next, apart from the Purple Thunder Sword, the Wang family will not bid for anything else. If anyone else is interested, we will all bid fairly, letting the Qian Gold speak for itself, to avoid further disputes.”
Such a fierce determination…
However, they do have sufficient confidence.
Subsequently, after several low-grade magical items were auctioned off, it was time for the highlight item of this auction – the Purple Thunder Sword.
This time, the auctioneer said in advance: “Ladies and gentlemen, we at Hundred Treasures Pavilion need to earn our keep too. I kindly urge everyone not to make unnecessary comments while bidding. Otherwise, we will strip you of your auction eligibility.”
With his warning in place,
The bidders have become much more cautious and dared not utter any “nonsensical” remarks, for fear of being blacklisted and face troubles.
After a wrangle of contention, Wang Shouzhe eventually won the mid-grade magical weapon – the Purple Thunder Sword for a price of five hundred ninety thousand Qian Gold.
Following today, the already highly thought-of Wang family in the Southern Six Guards saw their prestige and evaluation among the celestial families rise even more.
Now possessing both offensive and defensive mid-grade magical treasures, Old Ancestor Longyan’s combat power is extremely daunting. Given a few years of solidifying her cultivation base, even ordinary mid-stage Heavenly Humans wouldn’t be a match for her.
Regrettably, what they didn’t know was, they were still underestimating Old Ancestor Longyan to great extent.
Except for a few allies, the overwhelming majority of prominent families knew very little about Old Ancestor Longyan’s true prowess.
As early as during her Spirit Platform Realm, she had achieved the Fourth Level of Bloodline Spirit Body. Now, upon upgrading to the Heavenly Human Realm, she has awakened the Fifth Level of Bloodline!
Given some time, she would be able to put up a fight, not just against an average Heavenly Human in the mid-stage but also against Fang Youan.

(PS: These words aren’t charged. There were some initial setting errors with the dan medicine grades. I have made some adjustments in my settings and will gradually correct this in the subsequent text. For example, the Heavenly Spirit Pill has been adjusted to a Grade Four Dan medicine, while the Ascension Pill and the Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill have been adjusted to Grade Five Dan medicine. Their prices remain the same.)
