182: Purple Radiance

"Thirty million Spirit Stones."

Jiang Yunfan increased the price by ten million in one breath, raising it to thirty million.

The ten thousand year cold jade marrow was worth at most twenty million Spirit Stones.

A man glanced at Jiang Yunfan, somewhat displeased. He had thought he could bid for the ten thousand year cold jade marrow with twenty million Spirit Stones, but never expected someone to offer thirty million Spirit Stones. "Idiot, to spend thirty million Spirit Stones on this ten thousand year cold jade marrow."

Ji Yao hadn't expected Yunfan to bid. He Cultivated fire-attribute Cultivation Technique, so the ten thousand year cold jade marrow was useless to him. She asked, puzzled, "Why are you buying the ten thousand year cold jade marrow?"

Jiang Yunfan said, "It's not for me to use. It's to feed Little Butterfly. This little fellow is about to Breakthrough to the Nirvana Realm; it needs to eat more Heaven And Earth Treasure."

Ji Yao knew that Little Butterfly was the Archaic Emperor Butterfly.

The Archaic Emperor Butterfly was one of the Ten Great Archaic Strange Beasts, and it needed to consume a large amount of Heaven And Earth Treasure to grow.

Ji Yao took out some Heaven And Earth Treasure. "These Heaven And Earth Treasure were all bestowed upon me by the Clan Chief when I returned to the Phoenix Clan. They're not of much use to me. Take them and give them to Little Butterfly."

"Then I won't be polite."

Jiang Yunfan summoned the Archaic Emperor Butterfly.

As soon as the Archaic Emperor Butterfly saw the Heaven And Earth Treasure, it excitedly began to eat.

It devoured all the Heaven And Earth Treasure in no time.

"Master, I want to eat more."

"Wait a moment!"

No one else increased the bid, and the ten thousand year cold jade marrow was successfully acquired by Jiang Yunfan for the high price of thirty million.

The ten thousand year cold jade marrow was delivered to private room 9527.

Jiang Yunfan paid thirty million Spirit Stones.

"Little Butterfly, eat!"

The Archaic Emperor Butterfly swallowed the thumb-sized ten thousand year cold jade marrow in one bite.

"The next auction item is a Medium Grade defensive Spiritual Artifact, the Golden Shield. The starting bid is eight million Spirit Stones, and each increment must not be less than five hundred thousand Spirit Stones."

"Nine million Spirit Stones."

"Ten million Spirit Stones."

... Jiang Yunfan had no interest in the Golden Shield and did not participate in the bidding.

After more than a dozen rounds of bidding, it was finally the purple brilliant spirit fire's turn.

"The next auction item is the purple brilliant spirit fire, ranked fifteenth. The starting bid is one billion Spirit Stones, and each increment must not be less than ten million Spirit Stones."

It finally arrived.

Jiang Yunfan did not rush to bid.

Ji Yao said, "Yunfan, the price of the purple brilliant spirit fire will definitely exceed three billion Spirit Stones. Take these Spirit Stones."

She took out all the Spirit Stones she had and gave them to Jiang Yunfan.

Jiang Yunfan smiled and said, "Yaoer, don't worry. Let alone three billion Spirit Stones, I can even produce ten billion Spirit Stones."

He had as many as sixty billion Spirit Stones on him, almost comparable to the foundation of an Ancient Desolate Family.

Ji Yao understood Jiang Yunfan and knew he wouldn't speak idly. If he said he could produce ten billion Spirit Stones, he definitely had ten billion Spirit Stones. She retrieved her storage ring.

"One and a half billion Spirit Stones."

The price had risen to one and a half billion.

If it were in the Eastern Province, the purple brilliant spirit fire would at most be worth one billion Spirit Stones.

Although Spirit Fire was precious, it wasn't that important to many people. It was only of great use to those who Cultivated fire-attribute Cultivation Technique or fire-attribute Divine Ability.

"Young Lord, it seems no one can bid higher than you. The purple brilliant spirit fire belongs to none other than the Young Lord."

Wang Teng looked determined to win.

"One point six billion Spirit Stones."

Wang Teng's expression instantly froze.

"The guest in private room 9527 has bid one point six billion Spirit Stones. Are there any other guests who wish to increase the bid?"

Everyone looked towards private room 9527.

"Isn't that woman Fairy Cai Feng?"

Wang Teng looked at Ji Yao and transmitted, "Fairy Cai Feng, I am Wang Teng, Young Lord of the Ancient Desolate Wang Family. Since Fairy Cai Feng desires the purple brilliant spirit fire, I will do you a favor and not compete with Fairy Cai Feng."

He intended to do Fairy Cai Feng a favor and leave a good impression on her.

Ji Yao's cold gaze turned towards Wang Teng. Jiang Yunfan, who was beside her, noticed Ji Yao's unusualness. "What's wrong?"

Ji Yao said, "Nothing. The person competing with you for the purple brilliant spirit fire transmitted to me, saying he would concede the purple brilliant spirit fire to me, hoping to do me a favor to win my favor."

Jiang Yunfan cursed, "What a scoundrel. He clearly can't win against me, yet he says he's conceding. How shameless."

Hearing Jiang Yunfan's curses, a smile curved on Ji Yao's lips. She liked him being jealous and caring about her.

"One point six one billion."

As this price came out, Jiang Yunfan was instantly dumbfounded.

He had thought no one could bid higher, but he hadn't expected someone to add another ten million. This was provoking him!

Jiang Yunfan looked at the person who increased the bid. It wasn't Wang Teng, but a red-haired man. Ji Yao said, "This person is from the Fire Clan. It seems he is determined to obtain the purple brilliant spirit fire."

Jiang Yunfan knew the Fire Clan was one of the Ancient Clans.

The purple brilliant spirit fire must be extremely important to this person.

His bottom line was two billion. If this person exceeded that amount, he would give up bidding.

Of course, giving up bidding didn't mean he was giving up the purple brilliant spirit fire. If he couldn't bid for it, he would just have to snatch it.

"One point four billion."

Yan Yi glared at Jiang Yunfan. 'Dare to compete with me? You're not worthy!' "One point four one billion."

As soon as he increased the price, a mocking voice came to his ear, "Only increasing by ten million? Poor fellow."

"You're courting death!"

Yan Yi was enraged. If it weren't for the unsuitable occasion, with his fiery temper, he would have incinerated this person to ashes.

"One point five billion."

The price was raised by another one hundred million.

"One point six billion."

"One point seven billion."

... "Two billion."

Jiang Yunfan raised the price to two billion, shocking the entire audience.

The value of the purple brilliant spirit fire had doubled.

"Damn it."

Yan Yi was furious.

This person was clearly trying to oppose him.

He couldn't produce two billion Spirit Stones himself.

But the purple brilliant spirit fire was crucial for his Breakthrough to the Nirvana Realm. He absolutely had to get the purple brilliant spirit fire, so he could only exchange other treasures for Spirit Stones.

"Two point one billion."

Yan Yi increased the price by another one hundred million.

Jiang Yunfan wasn't surprised in the slightest. This guy had a significant background and was determined to get the purple brilliant spirit fire, so he could definitely produce two billion Spirit Stones.

Jiang Yunfan gave up bidding.

"Yunfan, you're giving up."

"I'm giving up bidding, but not giving up the purple brilliant spirit fire."

Upon hearing this, Ji Yao guessed Jiang Yunfan's intention. Although it was rather devious, she wouldn't object. After all, in this world, the strong were respected, and resources had to be fought for and snatched.

With Jiang Yunfan giving up bidding, no one else competed with Yan Yi for the purple brilliant spirit fire.

"Guest in private room 1471 has bid two point one billion Spirit Stones. Are there any guests who wish to continue bidding?"

Still no one increased the bid.

Yan Yi successfully acquired the purple brilliant spirit fire.

He paid the Spirit Stones and obtained the purple brilliant spirit fire.

"Congratulations."

Jiang Yunfan's voice came to his ear.

To Yan Yi, the congratulations sounded like mockery.

Yan Yi glared at Jiang Yunfan. "We've made an enemy. After the auction, do you dare to fight outside the city?"

A challenge.

Just what I wanted.

"If you want to fight, I'll fight! What do I have to fear!"

"No need to wait for the auction to end, let's do it now! If you have the guts, follow me."

Jiang Yunfan said to Ji Yao, "I'll be right back."

He instantly disappeared.

Yan Yi had a fiery temper; how could he endure such provocation? "You want to die sooner? I'll grant your wish."
