Chapter 293 - Declaration of War
Chapter 293: Declaration of War
According to Lin Jiansheng, after Mr. Zhang shouted out a high bid of fifty million spirit stones, he should also shout out a bid of 5,010,000 spirit stones.
But he suddenly admitted defeat.
His timid attitude made the others laugh.
Mr. Zhang had gone for wool and come back shorn. At this moment, his expression was already livid.
Hong Luan acted as if she didn’t hear the conversation between the two of them. She just smiled at Mr. Zhang and said gently, “According to the rules, if no one continues to participate in the bidding, then this Spirit Nurturing Drum will be sold to Mr. Zhang for fifty million spirit stones.”
Mr. Zhang gasped.
Even if he sold all his assets, he might not even be able to gather fifty million spirit stones.
However, the rules of the golden auction were very strict. If anyone dared to bid, they would have to pay in full. Those who were unable to pay would be killed.
Rakshasa Kingdom was an unreasonable place.
He could not leave the Rakshasa Kingdom!
And all of this was thanks to that bastard, Lin Jiansheng!
Mr. Zhang suddenly shouted angrily, “You bastard, I’m going to kill you!” Mr. Zhang suddenly summoned his beast form to fight to the death with Lin Jiansheng.
There were three lights on the beast form that he released, which meant that he was a Beast Tamer at the Supreme Master level.
At this moment, a powerful aura that made one feel suffocated suddenly erupted from a certain direction. Many Grand Masters were at the scene, but when they felt the aura, they felt their scalps tingle.
Mr. Zhang naturally sensed this terrifying pressure immediately. He was suppressed by that force to the point of being unable to move, and his forehead was covered in sweat.
Hong Luan said softly, “Mr. Zhang, in the Golden Auction House, we have to follow the rules of the auction house. Battles are prohibited in the auction house. Mr. Zhang, have you forgotten this rule?”
Mr. Zhang immediately came to his senses.
This was the Rakshasa Kingdom, the territory of the Night Hunter organization. He could not violate the rules of the Night Hunter organization. The price was not something he could bear.
Mr. Zhang glared fiercely at Lin Jiansheng before sitting back down.
The commotion died down just like that.
At the same time, the terrifying suppression that enveloped the entire auction house also disappeared. Like the receding tide, a thin layer of sweat appeared on everyone’s bodies.
The only person who could make everyone feel fear was a Prime Master expert!
However, in the world, there were only three Prime Masters. They were the old Principal of the Divine Realm Academy, the Divine Moon Empire’s Grand State Master, and the Merman Race’s Dino.
But these three people had nothing to do with Rakshasa Kingdom.
But this expert was clearly a Prime Master with unfathomable ability. Could it be that there were really some hidden Prime Master experts in this world?
Everyone felt uneasy at the thought of this.
Why were these Prime Masters hiding their identities? Were they deliberately hiding their strength and plotting something?
Yu Huang tilted her head and said to Sheng Xiao, “This person is really strong.”
Sheng Xiao told her, “It’s very likely that he’s a Prime Master.” He paused for a moment and said, “This Prime Master is not the three people we are familiar with.”
This was a Prime Master who had never appeared before.
Yu Huang immediately thought of the Blood Peacock Organization. If the Lord of the Night Hunt Organization was really a Prime Master, then the Blood Peacock Organization’s power really couldn’t be underestimated.
On the auction stage, Hong Luan was still auctioning off the other treasures.
Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang also took a fancy to some magical treasures. However, there were too many people bidding, so the two of them did not participate in the auction. The auction lasted from noon to four-thirty in the afternoon.
After the auction ended, the people who obtained the items were brought backstage by the attendants to collect the items. The others dispersed.
Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao were about to leave when a servant walked up to them. “Supreme Master Sheng, Master Yu, our master has prepared delicious wine and food. We invite the two of you to join us.”
The two of them looked at each other. In the end, Sheng Xiao nodded at the attendant.
The female attendant brought them to the top floor of the golden hall.
The golden cathedral was the tallest building in Rakshasa Kingdom. The top of the cathedral was originally a dome, but Night Hunt’s Lord felt that the dome blocked the night view, so he tore down the dome and changed it to an open-air balcony.
On the balcony, there was a long table with wine and delicacies prepared.
Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao were brought to the rooftop. They did not see Night Hunt’s Lord. Night Hunt’s Lord was not around, so it was inappropriate for them to sit. The two of them leaned against the railing on the rooftop and looked up at the stars.
Rakshasa Kingdom’s security was chaotic, but the sky here was always clear and beautiful. The sky was always clear during the day, and stars could be seen when one looked up at night.
The two of them were mesmerized.
Suddenly, a hoarse voice sounded from behind the two of them. That person said, “When I look up at the stars, I realize how tiny and insignificant I am. That’s why I like to look at the stars.”
This voice was clearly altered.
Both of them turned back to look behind them.
Behind them stood a man in a red robe. The man wore a mask, revealing only a pair of long and narrow eyes. However, those eyes looked as dark and deep as bottomless pits.
That person walked to the chair at the top of the long table and sat down. He pointed at the long table and said, “Please sit.”
Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao did not hesitate. They walked to both sides of the long table and sat down.
It was not easy to eat with a mask on. Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao took off their masks. When he noticed that Yu Huang had recovered, the robed man was shocked.
“Congratulations, Master Yu. You’ve recovered your looks and regained your beauty.”
Yu Huang raised her wine glass and said to the man, “Thank you. I’ve heard a lot about you. It’s nice to meet you today. I will toast you.”
The man picked up the wine glass and shook it gently before reaching out his right hand to take off the mask on his face.
Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang stared at him. His mask was taken off, revealing a beautiful face.
Yu Huang immediately determined that he was wearing a human skin mask.
The man drank the wine elegantly. Seeing that Yu Huang had been watching him, he put down the wine cup and asked Yu Huang, “Why are you looking at me like that, Master Yu?”
Yu Huang said bluntly, “I’m thinking about your relationship with the Blood Peacock Organization.”
The man smiled and didn’t answer.
A male waiter walked over and poured another glass for the man. The man pressed his fingers against the bottom of the glass and pushed the glass on the table.
When the cup moved to the center of the master seat, the man finally said, “As you think, I am the Blood Peacock.”
Yu Huang was not shocked when her guess was confirmed by him.
“Then, Lord Blood Peacock, what is your purpose in inviting us here as guests today?” Yu Huang had never bothered to beat around the bush with others. She felt extremely uncomfortable talking to this person in front of her.
The blood peacock placed his arms on the table and crossed his fingers while holding his chin. He stared at Yu Huang with interest and smiled. “There’s nothing else. It’s just that…”
“I just want to declare war on you guys!”
