Reborn as a Mountain: I Defy the Heavens with a Smile-Chapter 78: Phoenix Sky Dance

"Prince Ji Feng, why don’t I drag that Ye Chen out and let him apologize to you?!" The royal inquired with a cold look.

However, he didn’t notice that Ji Feng was frowning from the moment he knew who was inside the No. 1 dragon box.

’Father had warned me not to provoke the sect master of Azure Cloud Sect, but what about her disciple?’ He thought to himself while waving his hand in denial.

"No need; I will settle this personally," he stated as he glanced at the boxes No. 1 and No. 2.

With Ye Chen being inside one and Su Qiming’s whereabouts unknown, it was not hard to guess who would be staying inside No. 2 box.

’Looks like Su Qiming values Ye Chen a lot.’ He pondered silently and soon reached the conclusion that his daughter might not have been cured with the help of treasure but with some real skill.

…

"The esteemed guest had bid for 7000 mid-grade spiritual stones! I will count to three; if no one bids, then this Qi Condensation spirit fruit will belong to the esteemed guest," Qian Yuexi announced as she came out of her stunned look.

After which she simply picked up the mallet and counted to three.

No one tried to bid because the value of spirit fruit had already exceeded. Moreover, many had heard of how Ye Chen had duped Mo Chongsheng into purchasing the shit at his own sect’s stall.

Hence the spirit fruit finally went to Ye Chen.

Of course it didn’t mean they were afraid of him; it was just why bother with a rich man?

…

"Senior sister Liu It’s that handsome guy sitting inside the dragon box No. 1! The one you tried to steal from me!"

A little girl at the age of thirteen couldn’t help but exclaim loudly.

Hearing her, the young woman named senior sister Liu couldn’t help but blush before knocking the head of the little girl.

"Lin Xian’er! It seems you have grown quite a long tongue, haven’t you? How about I cut it in half for you?" Senior sister Liu replied with a cold smile.

Watching her like this, Lin Xian’er shivered in fear and hurriedly hid behind the old man who was with them.

"Grandpa Wu save me; senior sister had gone mad!" She shouted for help with tears.

"Xian’er, don’t make trouble for Jiarong; she is your senior sister; you can’t always make fun of her," Grandpa Wu reminded her with a stern tone and turned towards the beautiful woman.

"Jiarong, you are almost twenty-two now, so you better hurry up and find a partner soon; if not, there will be many more little girls who will tease you like this," he couldn’t help but speak with seriousness.

"Grandpa Wu!" Liu Jiarong exclaimed with an unwilling expression.

However, the old man Wu ignored her and glanced at the No. 1 dragon box.

’No wonder he is not afraid of the crown prince; he is the disciple of that little girl after all.’ He couldn’t help but mutter to himself.

He and the group of the female disciples inside the box were from the Wu family of the eastern province.

As for why there were only female disciples here? It was because the genius male disciples would have a greater opportunity than mystic pond.

Because only male disciples can get that opportunity, the quota here was given to all female disciples.

Although not many were from the main branch of the Wu family, the Wu family was magnanimous and gave benefits to the geniuses as long as they agreed to be disciples of the Wu family.

…

Just as the old man Wu was busy in his thoughts, the auction continued with various items.

However, none of them made any top powers take action, as they were all low tiers and didn’t have much use.

Ye Chen, however, did make his move a few times and acquired the items he wanted.

"What are you planning to do with these herbs and spirit fruits? I don’t think there is any pill related to it," Jing Xiao couldn’t help but inquire.

How could she know that Ye Chen was planning to plant them in his farm?

"I just like to collect herbs and spirit fruits; if you have any, feel free to tell me; I will purchase from you," Ye Chen replied without any intention of telling the truth.

Jing Xiao couldn’t help but pout at his lies; however, she didn’t say anything and glanced at the auction proceeding below.

As the auction continued, the grade of items increased, making everyone excited. The competition also became fierce as many took out their savings.

However, none of the top powers had made a move yet. They were just silently observing from the start of the auction.

"Everyone, the next item is earth-grade Phoenix Sky Dance martial technique! No matter the realm, as long as you can master this technique, you can have wings to fly up in the sky!"

"Of course you must have enough spiritual Qi to sustain the wings; however, this martial technique is still something unique, and unless one chanced upon luck, there is no way to acquire it, so don’t hesitate to bid!"

"The starting bid of Phoenix Sky Dance is 50,000 mid-grade spiritual stones, and the minimum increment is 500 mid-grade spiritual stones."

"If anyone is interested in having it, please bid immediately," Qian Yuexi spoke with a cheerful wink.

However, no one cared about her, and everyone’s eyes were focused on the Phoenix Sky Dance martial technique manual.

Even the top powers couldn’t help but become attracted to this.

It’s not like they don’t have such techniques; it’s just that mastering them was difficult. Moreover, these powers always monopolized such techniques as not to let rogue cultivators or their enemies master them and become a hard nut to crack.

"51,000!"

"55,000!"

"60,000!"

The bid climbed up at an extremely fast pace as all second-grade sects placed their bids fiercely.

Soon it reached 90,000, with the bid continuing to increase further.

It was at this moment the top power joined the fray. The first one to bid was Zhi Qiang.

"100,000 mid-grade spiritual stones! The Flame Dragon Sect wants this martial technique!"

He stated with a deep tone.

Hearing his voice, many sect masters fell silent.

Although everyone knew Zhi Qiang was a goner, who could tell if Ye Chen’s treasure would end up in his hands? It would be dangerous if he came after them.

Not to mention he had taken out the name of the sect. If they dared to go against him, the Flame Dragon Sect wouldn’t be happy.

But not everyone was afraid of him, and some were just about to bid when an arrogant voice rang out.

"I, the grandmaster Ye Chen, bid 100,500 mid-grade spiritual stones!"

Ye Chen placed his bid with a smile.

While hearing him, many people’s expressions twitched as they understood he was planning to humiliate Zhi Qiang.

A pity that they couldn’t glance inside the No. 9 dragon box; if not, Zhi Qiang’s black and blue face would be a great entertainment for them.

"Ye Chen! You thief! I have yet to settle my scores for stealing my improved formula of tier-4 cleansing pills! Just wait till I find my unfilial disciple who sold it to you for a measly amount of money!"

"After that I will personally kill you in front of everyone!" Zhi Qiang shouted in anger, turning white into black and black into white.

Of course the majority of the people didn’t believe it; however, they all wanted Ye Chen to die and get treasure for him, so how could they care about it?

"Oh! So he stole the improved formula; no wonder he gave it for free.

"Yeah, if he didn’t give it for free, no one would dare to buy it."

"A pity that the Su family believes in evil things."

Many cultivators who were dissatisfied with Ye Chen spoke against him.

"I bid 110,000 mid-grade spiritual stones!"

"Ye Chen, if you have guts, then keep bidding!" Zhi Qiang tautened his voice, filled with malice.

Anyone who heard him knew he was digging a trap to jump in, but if Ye Chen didn’t jump, then he would be called a coward.

Of course Ye Chen didn’t mind jumping in it, but why should he be the weak party here?

"I bid 200,000 mid-grade spiritual stones! Old dog, if you don’t have the guts to bid in the hundreds of thousands, then better tuck your third leg and roll out like a dog!" He sneered with a cold look.

Hearing him, the people in the auction hall couldn’t help but take a deep breath.

Let’s forget about the insults; just the bid was enough to shock them. Because such a flying martial technique wasn’t worth too much, especially since they were too hard to master and only a few people in tens of years could learn it completely.

Even other top powers who wanted to bid for it immediately gave up. However, there was one who didn’t.

"I bid 200,500 mid-grade spiritual stones!"

A young voice came out from the No. 3 dragon box. There was not even a need to look, as everyone knew it was the crown prince who placed the bid.
