Over The World, Beyond Heaven

Chapter 236: The Money Flows In


After Wang-Mu-Hai successfully borrowed Wang-Qin-Dai's money, he did not hesitate and immediately ordered the man who was assigned to the auction to bid an extra two hundred million. But he had to manage at the right time because the stone price in this round might not be as high as it was in the previous round.

The man who wore clothes that concealed his face, when receiving the order, immediately raised his auction sign without delay.

Four hundred eighty million monster crystal coins!

Huh...?

"Well! Oh man, looks like it's going to have someone fight against the Third Prince!"

"Right, but the major sects are silent. Not a single sect joined in the auction?"

"Don't you know that most cultivators of the major sects aren't earth elements? Besides, their earth-elemental skills are low. If they're not residing in Wild Land, it's useless. So, they don't participate in the auction. But for the other two stones, if I'm not mistaken, they would be water-element and fire-element stones. They must be these two elements."

"It's true, as you said. This round will surely end quickly!"

Everyone knew that there were very few earth-elemental spirit people in this country. The majority of earth-element people lived in Wild Land because nearly all of its regions and landscapes, up to eight parts, were earth.

Four hundred ninety million monster crystal coins!

The Third Prince continued to raise his auction sign without showing any expression. Anyway, the Third Prince's limit price for these stones was already six hundred million per stone. And if any stone was not up to that price, it would let him bring coins to join the other stones' prices.

Five hundred million monster crystal coins!

Five hundred fifty million monster crystal coins!

Five hundred ninety million monster crystal coins!

Six hundred million monster crystal coins!

Finally, the price reached the amount that the Third Prince had limited, six hundred million monster crystal coins. But the Third Prince still had twenty million contributions left from the last round to continue the fight. However, he still kept it because he wanted to see if the opponent would continue to fight. Or, in other words, keep it to push the price further.

Six hundred ten million monster crystal coins!

But suddenly, the sound of bidding sounded again, making the Third Prince know that the opponent was still able to fight. And he thought that he would try to bid another ten million. But if it went beyond this, he would not fight anymore and would let it go.

Six hundred twenty million monster crystal coins!

"Oh! Why is it even more expensive than the first round?"

"Never thought that the Third Prince would invest so much for his close henchman?"

"Right! But who is the hooded guy that has such a large amount of money? He also has to cover his face. He should be so ugly that he had concealed his face."

People enjoy talking in various ways. They did not even realize that their words were going to lead the Reaper to come and take them to Hell. Because those words just now made the young man who was hiding his face extremely angry. Since his face was actually so handsome that if any girl saw it, she had to turn to look until her neck tilted.

But these people said that his face was ugly, causing him to be displeased and clench his fists. He remembered those faces, waiting for the task to finish, then dealing with them.

"Six hundred and twenty million already? Can't believe the price is such high, despite there being very few cultivators or anyone having this element as a spiritual power."

"Because of that, it's expensive because it's so rare. So, the price is higher than other elements!"

"Though it's rare here, it's not hard to find in Wild Land!"

"So, do you think our country and the Country of Rage Earth are as far apart as your home and your mistress' house?"

You...!!!

The two old men, who sat in the auction room of their sect, continued to discuss what had happened. But it turned into a saliva war when they talked a lot until the other elders and disciples came to stop them.

Inside the secret room...

"It's already six hundred and twenty million now. You have only thirty million left. If it's beyond that, you should let it go, Wang-Mu-Hai." Wang-Qin-Dai said, patting Wang-Mu-Hai on the shoulder, who was sweating all over his face, worrying about whether to continue to fight or not.

"I know that. You don't have to tell me. And as for the money I borrowed from you, I'll have to pay it back. But can I borrow some more?"

"No!!!"

"Oh no! I just wanted a tiny amount, and you didn't give me any. You are so mean!" Wang-Mu-Hai said with a childish expression, turning towards Wang-Qin-Dai. His actions caused the other two old men to frown, for it was so unsightly that an old person like him would act cute and such innocent.

"Is anyone else going to bid more?" Wang-Lin-Chan said, sweeping her gaze around the auction room before turning around and stopping at Zheng-Fu again. But it was still the same; Zheng-Fu still sat there in silence with no tendency to raise the sign or join the auction...

Sigh...

"If no one bids more, then I will start counting!?"

Six hundred thirty million monster crystal coins!

But suddenly, the man in the hooded cloak made a bid at a crucial moment. Actually, he was ordered to bid earlier, but instead, he let the girl count before bidding because he wanted to attract the attention of people to him. And he really succeeded. All of the people turned to look at him, and every pair of eyes was filled with even more curiosity about who he was.

But the Third Prince's henchman, who possessed the earth-element spiritual energy, had a sullen, hateful face and secretly cursed in his heart because that man pushed the bid even higher. He knew what the outcome would be if the price got higher. That was, the Third Prince would give up and not bid further.

"I know what you're thinking, but my budget is just this amount. I'm really sorry." The Third Prince saw the look on his henchman's face and guessed it, so he spoke in consolation.

"No sir, Your Highness! I can't have such high hopes. Just your thought of bidding for me already makes me feel grateful," said the burly man, the Third Prince's henchman, with hands clasped, bowed his head low respectfully, and humbly.

"Next time, if I find another one, I will bid on it for you."

"I thank you for your kindness, Your Highness!" The burly man immediately knelt upon hearing the Third Prince's words that he would bid for him if he found earth-elemental stone again. Although knowing that it would be a long time before he could find it again, he was so glad that the Third Prince had thought of him.

"This auction, I surrender!" After making a decision, the Third Prince immediately announced that he had given up and could not bid anymore.

Surrender!?

Give up like that!!!?

The sound of the supporting characters was turned up again when they heard the Third Prince give up the bid in this round, despite having fought all along. As for the young woman, upon hearing that the Third Prince had given up on the auction, she did not say anything or make a displeased expression.

After all, in the auction of these four stones, the auction house had already received a large share of the sale because the price of each stone was not less than five hundred million.

"So, is there anyone else going to fight the price?"

!!...............silent..............!!

"Since there's no one else, I'll count now… One... Two... Three! Congratulations to that gentleman who won the auction in this round. As always, you can pick up your items when paying at the checkout box. Thank you."

Inside the secret room...

Yeah!

"Ole, ola, oh, my pants are torn! Oh, I already won! Haha! You guys see? You see, I won the auction. I finally got it!" Wang-Mu-Hai jumped around like a madman and sang along with the joy that he was able to win this auction.

But it was not what made him truly happy. He was happy because he was about to advance to the next stage.

"Eh… Congratulations! But don't forget to pay the money back to me. And return it in full; don't miss even a single coin. If not, your beloved thing will be seized instead of the amount of money that is lacking." Wang-Qin-Dai was annoyed by Wang-Mu-Hai's happy expression, so he talked about the borrowed money and the repayment.

If Wang-Mu-Hai could not pay back the full amount, he would go and get Wang-Mu-Hai's love thing instead.

"No, don't take my teddy bear. I love it so much. If you take it, I can't live. Especially that Brother Teddy Bear, which I love the most," Wang-Mu-Hai said with a pleading expression as if he was about to cry when Wang-Qin-Dai said he would take his beloved Teddy Bear.

Shh!!!

"Old, but not grown up, you are!"

Back to the auction stage...

After the end of the earth-elemental stone auction, Wang-Lin-Chan immediately continued to open the wooden box. Inside the next wooden box was a water-elemental stone. And it was the turn of the third old man, Wang-Liao-Lang, because this was the elemental stone of his identity. He ordered the concealed-face man to bid his full limit from the beginning in such a hurry.

But it was not as easy as he thought. The water-elemental stone was highly demanded by the Bright-Sky Medicine Sect and the Heaven and Earth Daoshi Sect, and, of course, there was also the Third Prince, who joined in the auction. That caused Wang-Liao-Lang to also turn to Wang-Qin-Dai to borrow two hundred million.

More than two hours passed. The water-elemental stone auction was finally over, and the winning bidder in this round was undoubtedly the Bright-Sky Medicine Sect. Because they made more than hundreds of millions a year from selling a lot of medicines, of course, whatever they wanted, no matter the price, they would spend money to buy it.

The price of the water-elemental spiritual stone ended up at seven hundred fifty million monster crystal coins, which was even higher than the previous two elemental stones. When the water-elemental stone auction was over, Wang-Lin-Chan immediately opened the last wooden box to continue the auction.

The remaining elemental stone was the fire element, which was the most desired by everyone and every sect.

Because everyone had the fire-elemental spirit since the fire element represented a warrior, those who possessed the power of the fire-elemental spirits were also outstanding in the attack. Even the alchemists and blacksmiths who had fire-elemental spirits were also able to turn their Qi energy into flames for melting iron or blending medicine to be more effective.

It could be said that the fire element was the most common, but the more people who had this attribute, the rarer the fire-elemental stone. Since everyone wanted it, this stone was insufficient for a large number of cultivators, and sometimes there would be a fight and a kill to get it.

After the end of the three elemental spirit stones auction, Zheng-Fu now had a total of one billion nine hundred sixty million monster crystal coins that he could pick up from the cash receipt counter. And he still had one more stone left that he had not auctioned. If the auction was over, Zheng-Fu estimated that he would have a total of over two billion.

Even after deducting the share that he agreed with the auction house, he still had a lot of money left, anyway.

Right now, Zheng-Fu wanted to shout out loud to the world with inexplicable joy. Because in his previous world, he was not very rich, it could be said that he just barely had enough to spend. But he had become a rich man now. And with this amount of money, his family could turn from a small family into a large national clan.

"Oh! Let the money flow in!"
