After Xu Que had called out the price of a billion Spirit Stones of low quality, no one had dared to called out another price.
According to the rule, once a buyer called out a price and no one else called one higher, the object would not be revealed to the public. As a consequence, no one would have the chance to really see what this object was.
Everyone was very curious as they stared at the jade box.
After all, this was the last object in the auction. They all wanted to know what was inside that box.
Xu Que stood up and smiled shamelessly.
Do you want to know what is inside that box?
No one answered. Although they were very curious about the contents of the box, they remained silent. They thought that since Xu Que had bought this item with a billion Spirit Stones, he would be desperate to see what was inside that box too.
Well, since none of you are interested, I will not show it to you. When I get home, I will just give it to my pet dog, Buttface.
Hearing this, everyone became furious.
What the fck! He will give the object that he has bought for a billion Spirit Stones of low quality to his pet dog?!
Finally, a young cultivator could no longer suppress his curiosity and stood up.
Wait, Lord Wang, we want to know what is inside the box.
The person holding the box stopped and looked at Xu Que.
Xu Que smiled.
You really want to know?
Both the young cultivator and others in the room nodded.
Yes!
Really?
Yes, we do!
Xu Que stopped smiling.
Why on earth should I show it to you?
What?!
Everyone was surprised.
Take it away. Don’t be ridiculous, grow up please! This is the gift that I have bought for my pet dog, Buttface. I will not show it to you!
Xu Que shook his head.
Hearing this, people almost passed out.
Fck! You were the one who asked us if we wanted to see it or not in the first place! You’re the one who should grow up!
Fine! Never mind!
Xu Que smiled and went back to his room, feeling extremely proud.
Everyone already knew that he was a shameless man and they were afraid that their houses would be looted by him later on. As a result, they did not quarrel with him, even if they were very angry.
As the last object had been bought by Xu Que, he had basically bought all the objects in this auction.
But the old man in the room beside him was not soft-hearted.
He had locked Xu Que in his room with his Soul Strength. Clearly, he meant to kill Xu Que and take everything he had bought.
Lord Wang, we have put all the objects in the storage ring. Would you mind having a check of it? If everything is alright, please come to the side here and pay. The total amount will be 7.8 billion Spirit Stones of low quality.
The lady stood outside Xu Que’s room and smiled.
Xu Que waved his hand and retrieved all the Spirit Stones from his System parcel.
All of a sudden, the huge room was filled up with Spirit Stones.
Spirit Stones of low quality, medium quality, high quality, and very few of top quality…
Seeing this, everyone at present was shocked. After all, they had never seen this amount of Spirit Stones in their entire lives.
Here you are, these are all the Spirit Stones I have, you keep the change too, I don’t mind,
Xu Que said proudly.
At the same time, the sound of his system notifications kept ringing in his head. His Acting Tough Points were increasing.
People felt very jealous of the people of the Tian Liu Chamber of Commerce, since they had gotten so many tips in such an easy manner.
The lady smiled.
Lord Wang, you are indeed a generous man. I give you my thanks on behalf of the entire Tian Liu Chamber of Commerce.
Xu Que waved his hand.
There is really no need. I still have plenty of them in my house. You have no idea how miserable it feels, sleeping in a pile of Spirit Stones! Every morning when I wake up, I always say ‘fck off! You dirty stones’!
Hearing this, people almost fainted.
Fck you! I have never seen anyone who is as shameless as that! He is really arrogant!
…
Soon, the staff of the Tian Liu Chamber of Commerce came up and began to calculate the number of stones lying around.
When the lady received the result, she forced a smile and walked towards Xu Que.
Lord Wang, there…there are only 5.2 billion Spirit Stones of low quality in total. You need to pay 2.6 billion more.
What?!
Xu Que was surprised.
This is impossible! This is what I got by looting a few Imperial Tombs, the treasure vault of the Fire Nation, and ten governors’ residences, and the third Duke’s residence as well. This is impossible!
I think you should check it again.
Xu Que got a bit worried.
After all, he had never counted the stones himself. If what the maid had said was true…
People saw Xu Que’s facial expression and started to laugh at him.
See? He hasn’t got enough Spirit Stones to pay!
2.6 billion Spirit Stones more, he is not going to be able to run from this.
This is really interesting.
…
People began to laugh and became very excited. After all, there was nothing funnier than seeing Xu Que lose face.
The lady forced out a smile.
Lord Wang, we are sure that there are only 5.2 billion Spirit Stones of low quality.
I see.
Xu Que nodded.
My god! How can I get another 2.6 billion Spirit Stones? Does it mean I have failed to act tough this time?! No way! I cannot allow this happen. Maybe I can sell Buttface to them!
Maid, can I pay the rest by selling my pet dog to you? I have a dog. When it is not moving, it looks like a mild child; when it moves, it looks like a mad rabbit.
The woman was stunned and shook her head.
Lord Wang, we… only take Spirit Stones.
Fine!
Xu Que shrugged.
Seeing this, people at present began laughing very hard.
You were so proud earlier! But see how you look now, you pathetic creature!
Didn’t you say that you have a pile of Spirit Stones in your house? Show us, then.
With so many people around, Xu Que knew that he would not be able to run away from this. Besides, he had promised the Water Empress that he would not make trouble.
What should I do?
Xu Que began to think very hard.
Suddenly, he came up with an idea. He started to stare at one of the objects he had bought.
I know what I should do!
Xu Que smiled.
