Chapter 1073 – Blue Wave’s Advances

“7 million!” From the infield, a thin demon wearing long red robes slowly spoke up. He glanced around and said, “Everyone, this demon vine is important to my Blood Shadow Clan. I hope you can give it up for me.”

The demon woman serving him suddenly changed complexions. She stepped forward and respectfully said, “Honored guest, please mind yourself. Your actions have already violated the rules of the auction house.”

The Blood Shadow Clan powerhouse’s eyes turned dense and dark. “You want to die?” A terrifying aura immediately covered the demon woman. Her face drained of all blood.

But at this time, the Blood Shadow Clan powerhouse stuffily coughed and swayed in place. Horror filled his eyes.

On the stage, the auctioneer had an indifferent expression, “This honored guest, if you wish to continue participating in the bidding process, you must follow the rules of Netherworld Station. Otherwise, I ask you to leave.”

The Blood Shadow Clan powerhouse took a deep breath and sat back down. “Continue the bidding!”

The auctioneer smiled. “I thank you for your understanding. Right now, we shall continue the bidding for this abyssal demon vine. To avoid unnecessary troubles, our Netherworld Stage will bid 7.1 demon crystals. If no one wishes to increase the bidding price, we shall keep this item.”

Old Fox had a look of acclaim, feeling admiration towards the quick mind of this auctioneer. With just a few words he was able to resolve the psychological burden of the other guests.

Otherwise, with that this Blood Shadow Clan person said before, the auction would definitely be affected. But now the guests didn’t need to care about such things.

“7.3 million!”

“7.5 million!”

The bidding continued.

Feature lifted a hand, “8 million!”

Shua –

Countless eyes gathered on her. Feature tried her best to put on a sullen expression, as if she didn’t care at all.

But when she inadvertently glanced at Qin Yu, she was full of arrogance. As if she were asking him – hey, did you see this miss’ majesty and glory?

How weak!

Qin Yu laughed inwardly. He hadn’t done any research on the abyss’ treasure, so he naturally had no interest in this auction.

As for Feature…only the heavens knew why she was spending such a massive amount of demon crystals to compete for these items. Perhaps it really was because she wanted to experience and personally participate in the bidding process…

Although this didn’t seem likely, Qin Yu believed that when it came to Feature, anything was possible.

The abyssal demon vine was good, but no matter how good something was, it still had a value. When the price surpassed 10 million only four people were still competing for it.

This time, Blue Wave was noticed by others. Although he didn’t increase the price by much, he never gave up since the start.

And the price had broken through 10 million. Even so, he still continued to increase the price. This indicated that he wanted to win no matter what.

“11 million!” Such a neat way of increasing the price was still the hallmark of Miss Feature. It was obvious that her bid put a lot of pressure on the other three parties. After a brief hesitation, the demon in the rear left booth coldly sneered and gave up his bid.

Another VIP guest thought about his foundation and added another 300,000 demon crystals.

“12 million!” The one bidding this time was Blue Wave.

What he displayed before was a slow and steady bidding style. Who would have thought that he would change so drastically after the price broke through 10 million?

The demon who increased the bid by 300,000 was stunned. He shook his head and put down his auction number plate.

“13 million.”

“14 million.”

Feature raised two fingers. “20 million.” Then, she blinked her eyes and said, “This is my final price. If anyone makes a higher bid, this demon vine will belong to them.”

Blue Wave was silent for several breaths of time. Then he sighed and stood up, saying, “Miss is indeed bold. I admit defeat. The demon vine is yours!”

Feature smiled and nodded, casually glancing over a few times. This caused Blue Wave to triumphantly laugh within.

The fish had swallowed the bait!

In this competition, Feature had spent several million more demon crystals in order to purchase this abyssal demon vine.

But from the financial resources she had exposed so far, she wouldn’t place a trivial few million demon crystals in her heart.

Even if there was any malice towards him, it would only be a little bit.

And more importantly, because of their conflict, he had left behind a preliminary impression in Feature’s heart.

Any relationship was born from the first impression. In Blue Wave’s eyes, although his first impression couldn’t be considered perfect, it was absolutely effective.

And this was just the start. Before the auction concluded, he would leave even deeper traces in her heart.

Feature smiled and sat down. As she did, there was an illusion of grace and elegance to her.

Qin Yu frowned. He stared at her for a long time and asked, “Are you feeling ill?”

Feature’s face stiffened. She glared at him and said, “Shut up for this old lady!”

Qin Yu laughed inwardly. He thought that no matter who the woman was, once they became angry the words ‘old lady’ would pop out of their mouth.

Some directly said it and some roared it in their hearts. But no matter which way they expressed it, it proved that the phrase ‘old lady’ was beloved by most women.

During the break, Netherworld Station had prepared a variety of refreshments for the guests to enjoy.

Mian Ya stood up and walked out for a time, and when she returned her mood seemed off. Qin Yu looked at her a few times. This woman kept her head lowered without saying a word.

But looking at her, something was clearly wrong. Qin Yu thought about it for a moment and decided to ignore it for now.

After gracefully eating some snacks and drinking for some time, Feature was reenergized. She threw herself back into the auction.

The first auction item caused her eyes to brighten. She bid without hesitation, more than doubling the base price.

“9 million! Tonight, this lady has won many times and never lost once. And now she’s bidding once again! What she’s aiming for is the blood of a stone ogre demon. It is known that stone ogre demons are a life form born during the early ancient times of the abyss. Once upon a time, they were considered peak existences comparable with abyssal titans, abyssal demon dragons, hellfire phoenixes, and other top demon beasts.

“But the abyss kept evolving and because of a reason we still haven’t discovered, the stone ogres gradually declined, going into hiding and becoming a part of the abyss’ legends. This stone ogre’s fresh blood comes from an unknown origin, but you can all rest assured of its quality. My Netherworld Station can guarantee that this is indeed the blood of a genuine stone ogre!

“If it is said that the first item of the auction, the incomplete crystallized heart of a Demon King Beast, is a treasure, then compared to this stone ogre blood, it is at least three levels worse, even more! 9 million demon crystals is completely worth it!”

A new auctioneer had come on stage. This one was much more enthusiastic and his voice was able to cause one’s blood to boil over.

The blood of an stone ogre rose dramatically, soon breaking past 10 million and becoming one of the peak bids so far.

Feature continued her bidding.

Blue Wave also joined in.

But there were many people who knew how to judge the quality of goods. Lots of the demons at this auction had come here for this stone ogre blood.

So even if the bidding price had broken through 10 million, many demons still competed for it.

Looking at the momentum of the situation, breaking through 20 million was only a matter of time. Perhaps even a higher limit would be reached.

“20 million!” Blue Wave suddenly opened his mouth and increased the price by 5 million.

Although many people had guessed that it wouldn’t be hard for the bidding price to break past 20 million, the sudden breakthrough from nowhere left many demons feeling hollow.

It had to be known that 20 million demon crystals was half the savings of a common Demon Commander. Tossing out so many at one time required a great deal of courage.

Moreover, there was one sentence that had been repeated multiple times already: there were just one or two precious treasures at the auction hall.

The closer one came to the end, the more likely it was for the truly valuable treasures to come out.

20 million demon crystals reduced the number of bidders by at least a third.

And following this, Feature’s offer eliminated another 80% of the remaining bidders. “30 million!”

To increase the bid by 10 million, this was a great show of wealth even for Netherworld Station’s auctions.

On the stage, the auctioneer’s face immediately flushed red. He said with greater excitement, “It’s that miss, it’s that miss again! She has raised the price by 10 million! So now, the bid is 30 million. Is there any guest willing to pay a higher price?”

He looked around at the audience, but there were few demons that were capable of continuing to bid. He received almost no response.

However, 30 million had surpassed the estimated price of this stone ogre blood. It could be called a successful auction.

“31 million!”

It was Blue Wave, the little brother of Adversity Peak City’s City Lord. He had finally grasped the second chance to leave behind a deeper impression in Feature’s mind.

And this time, he decided to not give up.

He had retreated the first time, so on the second time he had to be aggressive. He had to suppress Feature’s arrogance and seize the stone ogre blood.

Only this way, with two contrasting scenes, could he leave behind a deeper mark in Feature’s heart.

She might even become curious about him.

Then, a wonderful story might slowly take root and germinate from this curiosity.

Feature raised an eyebrow, putting on a surprised expression. Her lips moved and she spoke another heart-shaking number. “40 million!”

“41 million!” Blue Wave stood up, revealing a perfectly bitter smile, as if he was completely helpless about this. “Miss, this stone ogre blood is one of the most important goals for me in coming to this auction. So, I must apologize.”

Feature smiled and nodded, “Of course. Treasures can move the hearts of people, but only those who win with higher prices can obtain them. I suppose we will have to depend on our own methods.”

She lifted a hand, “50 million.”

Blue Wave bowed, “I thank miss for your forgiveness.”

He stood up straight and took a deep breath, “60 million!”

His voice was loud and clear!

At this point, the bidding came to a brief pause. Netherworld Station sent people out to confirm Blue Wave’s purchasing strength.

After all, if he wasn’t verified ahead of time and the auction was made a joke of in the end, Netherworld Station would lose face because of that.

Facts proved that Blue Wave did have the capital. The Netherworld Station demons respectfully bowed and left, returning his demon crystal card to him.

This was a deep purple-colored card with patterns on its surface that looked like burning flames.

In the slightly dim environment, it attracted many eyes. The demons who noticed this demon crystal card all showed expressions of shock and fear.

Demon crystal cards were a status symbol in the abyss. And they were divided into different levels.

For instance, the crystal card Blue Wave had in hand was rarely issued. It was one of the highest tiers that most Abyssal Kings possessed.

This alone was enough to prove Blue Wave’s status. The demon woman serving him almost cried tears of joy.

As for wealth…

By relying on this card, even if there were no demon crystals stored within, he could draw out a billion demon crystals or even more on credit.

Its nickname was the Unlimited King Card. It meant that as long as the cardholder was there, a near unlimited number of demon crystals could be drawn from it.
