The Strongest Businessman-144 Chapter 144: The End of the Auction 1

The liger inside the Evil Subduing Cube was slowly showing signs of weakening. After a while, the liger gradually laid down and comfortably fell asleep inside the cube.

Dylan was taken aback. He felt the cold sweat perspiring on his back. A moment ago, he felt like he was going to have a meeting with death. But, he did not panic instead, he was even preparing to summon the Shield of Dusk and use up the last Burning Dusk ability it still has.

'Luckily, Master and the others was able to stop the beast in time or else, I might have lost another life-saving trump card.' Dylan thought to himself.

...

The crowd still had aghast expressions from the incident that just happened. It happened all too fast. The moment Dylan opened the vial, the beast king quickly lost all of its reasoning and randomly pounced towards Dylan. Fortunately, Azelmek and company was able to intervene and successfully restrain the liger.

"I thought that Dylan was done for when I saw that liger jump towards him." Okemos murmured to himself

"Me too. The liger was so fearsome that it felt one swipe could easily break your back." Steven concurred with cold sweat dripping from his forehead.

...

"Miss Vlad, we apologize for imprisoning your beast." Allen went ahead and apologized to Veronica.

"It is understandable. If you have not stopped my companion in time, something dreadful might have happened to Sir Dylan. It is I who should be thankful instead." Veronica humbly replied and asked for apology.

"Worry not, Miss Vlad. It was all an accident. I, myself, did not expect that the blood would have such a direct and discreet effect to spirit beast of the Mortal Moulting Realm." Dylan smiled amiably and considered bygones as bygones.

"I understand. But, I still do feel guilty for the mishap that I have caused." Veronica spoke in a meek voice which made the hearts of countless men present melt.

'A beauty that could bring downfall to a nation, indeed.' Dylan suddenly felt that the hearsey about this woman was not baseless at all. Despite her face covered with the veil, her voice could still beguile men to a trance.

Fortunately, Dylan had a strong will to resist otherwise, he would have been the same as those men openly staring at Veronica without restraint. Some were even too trapped in their fantasies that they were already drooling.

"I see. Since Miss Vlad feels this way, why don't we consider this as you owing me a favor?" Dylan brilliantly suggested.

"Agreed. If you have anything you want me to help with, as long as it is within my power, I will do it without fail. Hehe." Veronica answered sweetly. There was even a sillhouette of a smile that was being formed behind her veil.

"A goddess..." A smile which smited the young men who caught sight of it.

"Then, I will be in your care when the time comes." Dylan replied in a similar manner. But, he could feel sharp glares at his back when he said those words. He laughed bitterly in his heart, 'Beauties really do bring a serious amount of trouble with them.'

"Moving on. I believe that everyone should more or less know the authenticity of the item due to what happened. A single droplet of blood could make a Mortal Severing Beast lose control! Do you think that this is an item equal to Mid Heaven Rank or even a High Heaven Rank? It is up for you to decide. The client only wishes to exchange it with a material of equal price. Thus, the bidding price is also up to you. Let the bidding for the last item of the auction start!" Dylan shrugged off the gazes with amicable smile as he face the crowd and proceeded with the auction.

"Is he for real?" A cultivator asked in shock.

"He is right in front of a crowd. Lying would affect his publicity! It must be true!" A low ranked businessman stated.

"The does that mean... I bid my family treasure, Dark Sabertooth Dagger! It is a dagger that was passed down for 8 generations! My ancestors believed that it came from the fangs of the Mythical Beast, Dark Sabertooth Tiger!" A youth which wore a Beast Tamer robe gritted his teeth and bid for a price.

'If I get that blood, my Night Panther would be able to evolve! When that happens, I would be able to protect big sis!' He raised his hand and a dagger with the shape of a fang. It had serrated lines along the sides which was dark in color.

"Hahaha, just an idiot trying to do a fool's errand." A high class noblewoman berated.

"Indeed, how could a suspicious looking dagger compare to the blood of that Demonic Beast God?" A 3 star Hunting Squad Leader laughed mockingly.

"It does resemble the black serrated white fangs of the Mythical Beast mentioned in the Mythical Beast Encyclopedia. The I believe that it needs verification from a Treasure Appraisser. If it was appraised, I could reconsider." Dylan critically said.

"Really?!" The young Beast Tamer had a joyous look of surprise on his face when he heard what Dylan said about the dagger.

"Indeed." Dylan smiled back.

"I- I will get it checked right away!" The youth was trembling as he spoke and left to look for a Treasure Appraisser to evaluate his family heirloom.

"Impossible..." The noblewoman and the hunter looked agape when they saw that scene. They felt their cheeks were burning from embarassment so they decided to keep low.

"I bid the secret technique of our sect, the Hundred Sword Strikes! It is a technique that was derived from the Thousand Sword Execution of the famous Thousand Sword Immortal which roamed the Mystic Clouds 2000 years ago!" The sect leader that came from the Dozen Sword Sect bidded hastily.

"If it was the complete Thousand Sword Execution or even the first four parts of the said technique, I could have considered for this item. I apologize." Dylan shook his head as he spoke.

"I bid..."

...

The bidding went on as different people tried to bid for different treasures. At first, the items that were being put into bid were items that was only based on family belief, folktale, and superstitions but as the time went on, the treasures that were being placed were now appraised and verified by different Treasure Appraissers.

"I bid the High Earth Ranked Weapon, Tetra Revolving Cannons! The cannon has the strength comparable to a Low Heaven Rank Treasure but due to its slow mobility and extensive reloading time it was appraised to be a High Earth Rank Weapon! It has been appraised by the 6th Tier Treasure Appraiser, Gington." The second elder of the 32nd ranked power, Mountain Breaker Guild placed a bid.

The crowd was taken in by surprise. It was a true Heaven Rank treasure! They suddenly felt that the price of the vial was starting to become far more astronomical than the other items earlier.

"A Low Heaven Rank Treasure?!"

"That could kill a Palace Establisment expert!"

"What a powerful treasure!"

"I bid the Low Heaven Rank Slaughter Formation of our Manor, Stone Edge Guardian Golems Formation! It summons five stone giants which form the formation in order to eradicate the target. It has a strength which is capable of even killing a Mortal Moulting Expert!" Brock Stone roared strongly. His father allowed him to bid one of three secret formations of their manor just to get this vial of blood.

"Damn it!" The Mountain Breaker Guild second elder cursed as soon as he heard another bid.

Another item which caused a great uproar to the onlookers. They, then understood that the Slaughtering Formation is something that was even more valuable than the Tetra Revolving Cannons that was offered moments ago.

"A Low Earth Ranked Formation?!"

'Five stone giants to beseige a target?! A formation could do that!?"

"How terrifying! It could even kill a Mortal Moulting Expert!!"

"I bid the egg of the offspring of two of my Mortal Severing beasts. It is an egg that I tried to breed from the Frostwing Three-eyed Sparrow and Blizzard Night Owl. Although I have yet to ascertain if it was a successful hybrid, but at the very least it also has the power to become a Mortal Severing Beast." Vice Head Garet of the Battlebeast School placed an exorbitant bid!

The crowd was dumfounded yet again when they heard the bid from one of the 10 Supersects. One must know that a Mortal Severing beast is exceedingly rare. A pureblood Mortal Severing egg would naturally retain the strength of it's predecessor once it reaches adulthood. On the other hand, a cross bred egg might not necessarily have the chance to be equally strong as its' parents but it also might be stronger than both parents combined!

"A hybrid egg from two Mortal Severing Beasts?!" An astounded bystander was slack jawed as he repeated Garet's words.

"That must be of equal worth with a High Heaven Rank treasure, right?!" A participant curiously asked.

"Did'nt Vice Head Garet only have 6 Mortal Severing Beasts?! Why is he bidding such a invaluable treasure?" A rather informed noble questioned Garet's actions.

"You ignorant dumbass! That is because the blood of a Demonic Beast God is a True Immortal level beast if Vice Head is able to successfully asimilate the blood to one of his beast could evolve and reach Immortal Saint Realm!" A learned high class noble sneered while he explained.

"Is that really possible?!" The nearby people opened their jaws widely after they heard their conversation.

"Then, I think no one else can get it aside from Vice Head Garet now." Another person said.

Suddenly, a voice resounded from the sky as a figure descended to the stage in the middle of the block where Dylan was standing. " I bid a favor from me."

The crowd had one question in mind when they saw the devilishly handsome black haired man who appeared out of nowhere, " Who is that?"

"May I ask who this kind sir is?" Although surprised, Dylan managed to compose himself and calmly asked with a bow of greeting.

"I am Shadow Night." The black haired man uttered with confidence.

"I see. It is Founder Shadow of the Night Grand Clan. If I may pressumably ask, how is a favor from Sir Shadow be of more value than the hybrid egg of sir Garet." Dylan knew that this man was overly arrogant just from his expression and words ealier and he knew exactly that he was the type to kill if displeased. So Dylan showed a respectful behavior, despite his inner thoughts.

"Hahaha, a hybrid egg of two Mortal Severing Beasts is quite valuable but compared to me, it pales in comparison. I understand that you don't know what I am referring to due to the large disparity of our strength. So, I will clarify it for you." Shadow replied with dismissive attitude.

"What does Sir Shadow mean?" Dylan asked confusedly.

"I am bidding the favor of a Half Saint Realm expert of the Saint Energy Refining Realm." Shadow Night revealed.
