Chapter 1061: The Price of a Cultivator’s Secret Manual
Bei Mingxuan was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood. But very obviously, what was next was the most interesting part of the video.
Bei Mingxuan brought a bunch of people and came barging in. The first thing he did upon coming in was to snatch the secret manual and burn it into ashes without even looking at it! He burned it into ashes! A Star Sector-level Cultivator’s secret manual was actually destroyed just like that!
Seeing this, everyone present sucked in a cold breath.
Bei Mingxuan and Zhu Yunzhou opened their mouths wide, unable to close it. Especially Bei Mingxuan, he was really filled with regret now. Why didn’t he look through the contents first? This was bought by his son with 50 million dollars. Although his son threw it away, if he had discovered that it was a Cultivator’s secret manual, he would definitely have just snatched it back and kept it even if it was very embarrassing to do so! After all, that 50 million dollars had really been spent!
But now, it was too late, the book was already destroyed, just that he wasn’t sure if there was an extra copy…
Hm? Extra copy!? That’s right, extra copy! This Hong Dali definitely has an extra copy!
As expected, just as Bei Mingxuan and Zhu Yunzhou were thinking up to this point, Hong Dali grinned and said, “Oh my, speaking of which, I am really thinking of letting my Great-grandfather practice this secret manual. If this secret manual and my family’s Star Sector-level secret manual can be fused together, I reckon that its power will be enhanced by quite a bit. Didn’t you request for the covenant of reneging on marriage? Great-grandfather will definitely be able to win very easily during the duel then!”
This time, Zhu Yunzhou was really scared until his face turned white.
Why did he dare to request for the covenant of reneging on marriage? Wasn’t it because Hong Xingyu was already very old but he was still in his prime, plus he even obtained a Stellar-level Cultivator’s secret manual some time ago and had gained some results from fusing them together?
He only dared to request the covenant of reneging on marriage because he had an 80% chance of winning due to these two advantages!
But it was over now! With this Star Sector-level Cultivator’s secret manual, no matter how lousy Hong Xingyu was, he could at least enhance the Hong Family’s secret manual from an amplitude of 120 times to 130 or 140 times! If he was even smarter, the result…
By that time, how were the Zhu and Bei families supposed to fight with the Hong Family? Would they still be on the same level?
“We can discuss things, discuss things!” Bei Mingxuan’s attitude suffered a 180-degree change and he said, “I was too rash just now. Let’s do it this way. Hong Dali, you definitely have a spare copy of this secret manual, right? State a price, I shall buy it at any cost!”
“Yes, yes, I will buy it for whatever the price!” Zhu Yunzhou hurriedly added too. “Dali, just state a price, we can negotiate over it!”
What the heck, your faces changed too fast, didn’t they? You guys learned the Professional Face Changing course in the past?
At this moment, all of the Hong Family members were nervous too. This Hong Dali wouldn’t really sell the secret manual away, would he? That was a Star Sector-level Cultivator’s secret manual, after all. It had very severe implications, how could it be sold away to others?
Even Hong Xingyu also hurriedly reminded Hong Dali. “Dali, you can’t sell this secret manual!”
Originally, everyone thought that Hong Dali wouldn’t sell it. After all, it had very severe implications. Only a fool would sell it away!
But unexpectedly, Hong Dali quite seriously touched his chin and suddenly nodded. He said, “You guys look quite sincere. Yup, tell me your offers first. if I am satisfied, maybe I will consider selling it to you.”
This fellow has definitely been kicked in the head! He’s actually really planning of selling the secret manual!
Big Elder angrily said, “Hong Dali, you can’t decide such an important thing!” The other Elders all nodded and said, “This is a Cultivator’s secret manual! If you really sell away such an important thing, you will become the sinner of our Hong Family!”
“What has my stuff got to do with you guys?” Hong Dali didn’t even bother about the Elders and only looked at Bei Mingxuan and Zhu Yunzhou, then said, “State your offers first. Hehe, they don’t want me to sell this, but I really want to sell it now instead.”
“Hong Dali, you!” Big Elder was angry that he almost vomited blood.
Is this fellow a donkey? He won’t move when led and will retract when beaten!?
“One billion!” Bei Mingxuan shouted, “I offer one billion!”
“I offer 1.5 billion!” Zhu Yunzhou shouted too.
“Old Zhu, this secret manual was throw away by my family, what are you meddling in this for?” Bei Mingxuan was furious and stared at Zhu Yunzhou. “You want to obtain the secret manual and suppress my Bei Family, is that so!?”
“How can you say that it belongs to your Bei Family?” Zhu Yunzhou objected and said, “This is something that Hong Dali is selling, what has it got to do with your Bei Family!?”
“Good, very good. I shan’t bother with you for now.” Bei Mingxuan was obviously angered and said, “Two billion!”
A Star Sector-level human was really able to be considered someone super-powerful. Especially at their stage, it was extremely hard to improve even a tiny bit. Now that the chance to become stronger was in front of them, no matter what the price was, they must obtain it! Other things aside, the most crucial thing was that they definitely couldn’t let the Hong Family get ahead of them!
If Hong Xingyu managed to practice this secret manual but they didn’t, they would definitely be at a huge disadvantage. Especially for the covenant of reneging on marriage in three months’ time, it would be very hard to win it!
“I offer three billion!” Zhu Yunzhou gritted his teeth and said, “Bei Mingxuan, I am the one who’s attending the duel in three months’ time. If I am defeated, your Bei Family won’t end up too good as well. Therefore, I advise you not to make things difficult for me now.”
Hearing this, Bei Mingxuan pondered for a while, then chose to make the same offer. “Okay, I shall fork out three billion too.”
Hearing this price, the surrounding people all sucked in a cold breath.
Three billion to buy a Cultivator’s secret manual. The most crucial thing was that it was three billion each from both families, which made it six billion in total! A secret manual sold for a high price of six billion, this was something that they couldn’t even imagine in their dreams!
“A total of six billion? It’s still not enough, you guys even offered 10 billion for a video…” However, Hong Dali shook his head in dissatisfaction and said, “You guys are still too narrow-minded, it’s better if I just put this on auction. I reckon it shouldn’t be a problem to fetch 10 or 20 billion.”
Put it on auction! This Hong Dali actually planned to put this secret manual on auction!
“You… You are too much!” Bei Mingxuan and Zhu Yunzhou were completely furious now! Hong Dali actually said that he wanted to sell a secret manual that was throw away on the auction for 10 to 20 billion dollars! This secret manual was something that the Bei Family had thrown away… thrown away…
Damn it, this was actually thrown away by us, and now we still have to buy it back…
“Huh? How am I too much by putting my stuff on auction?” Hong Dali felt strange and asked, “Do I still have to ask for your opinions to sell something? Don’t forget, this thing is mine now, mine!” He emphasized heavily on the word “mine”, speaking in a very serious tone.
Bei Mingxuan and Zhu Yunzhou were really depressed now.
Why were they afraid of Hong Dali putting the secret manual on auction? The biggest reason was because of the positions of the three main families!
Currently, the Hong Family was first in place with an amplitude of 120 times from the “Realm King Fist”. The Bei Family was second with an amplitude of 110 times from the “Sky Shocking Divine Skill”, and the Zhu Family was third in place with an amplitude of 105 times with their “Tianwu Secret Records”.
However, if some other family obtained this Star Sector-level Cultivator’s secret manual and fused with another secret manual into a stronger secret manual, their positions as the three main families might be disposed of! After all, who wouldn’t want to sit at the top of the pyramid? Countless families were training wholeheartedly now in order to replace their positions. Once this secret manual appeared on the auction, it would definitely lead to lots of bloodsheds!
Bei Mingxuan and Zhu Yunzhou barely managed to force out a smile that was uglier than a cry and said, “Yes, yes, yes, don’t place it on auction. Let’s do it this way! 10 billion from each of our two families, how about this!?”
10 billion each, that would be a total of 20 billion! Such a price caused everyone to stare in bewilderment. A secret manual bought from a starting price of one million was actually worth 20 billion now, in just such a short while! This was practically robbing money!
“20 billion? This figure is still acceptable.” Hong Dali touched his chin and said, “Alright. Although I am still making a bit of a loss, I shall accept the offer of 20 billion. Actually, I really don’t like to calculate money…”
They actually succeeded! Hong Dali actually thinks that this price is acceptable!
Bei Mingxuan and Zhu Yunzhou were both delighted and stretched out their hands at the same time. “Quick, give me the secret manual!”
The other members of the Hong Family were all astonished. Could it be that this Hong Dali was really planning to sell the secret manual!?
Actually, according to normal circumstances, at this moment, Hong Dali should hand over the extra copy of the secret manual. The Elders of the Hong Family were just waiting to see if Hong Dali really dared to hand them the secret manual. If he really dared to do so, they were prepared to beat him to death. But unexpectedly, Hong Dali dug his nose and strangely asked, “Hand over the secret manual to you guys? Why should I do that?”
Huh? What situation is this? What does Hong Dali mean by this?
“Hong Dali, are you playing with us!?” Bei Mingxuan and Zhu Yunzhou were both furious. “You just said that the price of 20 billion is acceptable, do you plan on turning back on your words now!?”
Hong Dali indeed said that the price of 20 billion was acceptable, but now, he didn’t want to hand over the secret manual to them. Momentarily, everyone was a bit confused. What was this Hong Dali trying to do?
“I didn’t.” Hong Dali scratched his head and strangely asked, “How is it possible that I will toy with you guys? I did say that this price is acceptable, but I never mentioned that I am going to sell the secret manual! Xinxin,” He looked towards Tang Muxin and asked, “did I say that I am going to sell it?”
Tang Muxin cocked her head and thought for a while, then decisively shook her head and said, “You didn’t!”
Hong Dali looked again at Hua Xiangyu and asked, “Sister Xiangyu, did I say that I am selling it?”
Hua Xiangyu carefully thought for a while too, then shook her head and said, “You really didn’t seem to have said that you are going to sell it.”
“Look, it’s like this.” Hong Dali shrugged and said, “I was just asking how much this secret manual is worth, then the two of you starting stating prices, right? Then, each of you offered to pay 10 billion, which makes it 20 billion in total. I said that this price is acceptable, right? But I never said that I was going to sell it!”
