"35 billion!"

Huangfu Qi was the second individual to make the bid. The Blood Emperor War Chariot had been dyed with the blood of the Nine Thearchs Clans' descendants. To be able to ride this war chariot was definitely a symbol of status and reputation, and they would be extremely honored.

"40 billion!"

The Qu Clan Head had also made a bid. People at the bottom were all twitching their mouths as these great clans' Clan Heads were all competing and increasing the bids by five billion increments. They totally didn't see the celestial stones as anything and only treated it as a number.

When thinking about the 13 Clans which occupied the entire G.o.ds Bestow Tribe where entries to the city required celestial stones, everyone understood it as the clans were profiting so much every single day.

Perhaps the clans' young masters and young ladies might be fearful when calling out a price, but the various Clan Heads would never hesitate. The old patriarchs didn't bother about such affairs. Hence, these Clan Heads had the full authority of their various clans.

"45 billion!" Nangong Clan Head had also made his bid. If the old-fas.h.i.+oned and harsh Nangong Yunyi was so forthright, it meant that he was valued this Blood Emperor War Chariot with importance.

Lei Tingwei made another bid with an indifferent tone, and he didn't increase the price too much, "50 billion!"

"Looks like the price is about to reach 100 billion…"

The entire crowd was holding their breaths as they were preparing to witness another historic moment. Jiang Yi and the others were sticking out their tongues as this group of Clan Heads was just too rich. They didn't even blink when making their bids, and in just a short moment, the price had reached 80 billion.

"This treasure is about to exceed 100 billion. What about the last item? Could it also exceed 100 billion?"

Many thought of another question. This was just the second last item of the auction, and there was one final treasure. Looking from the situation, it was also going to be sold for at least 100 billion. This auction was destined to deeply engraved in the history books.

"100 billion!"

Lei Tingwei immediately increased the price by 20 billion. The entire hall was silent as there was no purpose to continue. Even if they pushed it to the final celestial stone, they would only be letting the seller make a great profit. The 13 Clans were on the same side, and there wasn't a need to fall out because of a war chariot.

"Congratulations to Uncle Lei!"

When Situ Yinian shouted out, it had ascertained the owners.h.i.+p of this rare cardinal treasure. Everyone in the hall had burning eyes as they waited expectantly for the final treasure to appear.

"Today's auction is truly too shocking. My legs are currently shaking. Before the final auction item makes its appearance, please let Yinian take a short rest…"

Situ Yinian's joke was applied at the perfect moment which eased the atmosphere of the auction. Jiang Yi and Qian w.a.n.guan were nodding their heads slightly as this Young Lady Situ was truly a talent. It was rare that a young lady could have an aura like hers. The young ladies from the great clans were truly extraordinary.

"Alright! Let us welcome the final treasure on stage!"

As Situ Yinian's yelled out delicately, a beautiful female attendant brought a jade box onto the stage. This jade box was made with the superior yellow warm jade, and just a glance at this jade box was enough to know that the treasure inside was certainly exceptional.

Situ Yinian's eyes had also turned pa.s.sionate as her limpid eyes stared at the jade box, as though she was looking at her own lover. She took a deep breath and said, "Inside this jade box is an item that is worthless to a man, but it is a cardinal treasure that all women yearn for even in their dreams. Yinian once had the intention to negotiate with the seller if they would consider not auctioning the item as Yinian was willing to spend 50 billion to purchase it. However, my father said that rules must not be broken, and the clan rules must be obeyed. The Situ Clan's auction house could obtain all the praises and love was precisely because of our rules."

Young Lady Situ's impressive speech had made everyone curious. All the women seated in the auction hall had burning eyes as they stared at the jade box, wanting to see what kind of treasure it was that could be worth 50 billion.

"Ke-Ke!"

Situ Yinian didn't add onto the suspense as she waved her elegant hand and said, "That's right. This cardinal treasure is… the Pearl of Life. It is a pearl that is only produced once every 10,000 years from the Tree of Life. This pearl is famed throughout the Stellarsky Domain and is a cardinal treasure all women desired. Because if you wear this pearl, it will prevent you from getting old, keeping your everlasting youth. Even till death, you will be able to preserve your most beautiful face and will allow you to extend your lifespan by at least two centuries. In addition… this pearl has a special effect that would allow the deceased's corpse to never rot. We shall begin the auction for the Pearl of Life. The starting price will be ten billion, and every bid shall not be less than one billion!"

"Wow!"

The auction hall was turned into a market instantly as it had flared up. Everyone had heard of the famed Pearl of Life, but they didn't expect one of the Pearl of Life was actually put on the auction? Everyone this Pearl of Life appeared, it would cause all the women of the various great clans to go insane.

Women placed all priority on their appearance!

There might be plenty of women cultivating in this world, and there were plenty of women that had powerful strength and status. No matter what, this world was a world dominated by men. The majority of the rulers were males like the Clan Heads of the 13 Clans were all men. No matter how powerful a woman was, she would ultimately have to marry someone.

The Phoenix Cry Continent was the only exception which was reformed by history. Furthermore, didn't the women of the Phoenix Cry Continent also desired to snuggle in the embrace of a powerful man?

All women placed importance on their appearances as a charming appearance was their a.s.set!

Men conquer the world to win women while women conquer men to win the world!

In order to conquer men, a woman's appearance was an effective weapon. It was a pity that… youth would only last for an instant, and a beauty would grow old easily. Even the most beautiful woman would never be able to defeat time. When a woman was old and wrinkled—even if her man still loved her deeply, she would still feel insecure and concerned, right? But with this Pearl of Life, she would be able to preserve her everlasting youth. Even at the moment of death, she would be at her most beautiful and youthful state. This was undoubtedly a fatal weakness for all women.

Feng Luan and Qing Yu's breathing got erratic. They had heard of the legends of the Pearl of Life, but they didn't think that it would be true. Their eyes quickly dimmed as there were so many prestigious young ladies present in this auction, and even if Jiang Yi threw in all his celestial stones, he wouldn't have enough.

Jiang Xiaonu didn't bother as she had a simple mind and didn't think too much of it. Jiang Yi took a glance at Feng Luan and Qing Yu before he left out a bitter smile and said, "Feng'er, Qing Yu, if there is a chance in the future, I will definitely buy each of you one Pearl of Life."

"Thank you, Young Master!"

Feng Luan let out a warm smile and just as she wanted to say something, there was an extremely resolute shout that burst out, which shocked her so much that she couldn't even close her mouth.

"100 billion!"

Someone had made a bid and had immediately yelled out the price of 100 billion.

The important point was the person making the bid was actually… Huangfu Taotian!

The entire crowd was stunned. They were looking at the green-haired youth who had stood up with eyes of astonishment. Huangfu Taotian was an upright man and was actually bidding for the Pearl of Life? Furthermore, wasn't his bid too aggressive? Was he insane?

"So this is the case…"

Jiang Yi was rather surprised, but he suddenly realized it and finally understood why would someone like Huangfu Taotian become a bandit? The reason he was plundering so many celestial stones was actually to bid for the Pearl of Life.

He had returned to the G.o.ds Bestow City today just to bid for this Pearl of Life as well, right? Otherwise, with his character, he would never return to G.o.ds Bestow City unless he had absolute strength. However, Jiang Yi didn't know who was Huangfu Taotian bidding the Pearl of Life for? Was it for his beloved woman?

There was absolute silence. Many young ladies wanted to bid but had all swallowed their voices back down. Would they dare to make such a bid without the approval from their Clan Head? Putting aside the fact if they had so many celestial stones—even if they had enough, would they dare to offend a lunatic like Huangfu Taotian?

Someone dared!

"101 billion!" The Lei Clan's Young Lady Lei Zihan's voice echoed. It was like a giant boulder dropped into a calm lake.

Huangfu Taotian's eyes immediately turned cold as he lifted his head abruptly, yelling at the Lei Clan's pavilion with an enraged expression, "Lei Zihan, you are trying to go against me until the end, huh? I, Huangfu Taotian, will make things clear today. Even if I die… I will not marry you. You better give up that thought."
