Chapter 282: 999’s Ident.i.ty
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Ten thousand Xuanling Crystal Hearts? Am I hearing things?”
“I heard it too, it’s indeed ten thousand Xuanling Crystal Hearts!”
“Is someone insane? What’s the point of spending ten thousand Xuanling Crystal Hearts to buy such a thing? Why not buy a piece of rock? Even if that rock is truly a rare gem, it shouldn’t be that expensive.”
“This is outrageous!”
“If I had ten thousand Xuanling Crystal Hearts, I’d be living the high life every day!”
“All, 1 really want to know who this VIP No. 999 is!”
“Don’t you guys wonder what that rare gem is? VIP No. 999 is willing to spend ten thousand Xuanling Crystal Hearts on it, so it must be worth that price. I’ve never heard of any natural rare gem selling for such a high price.”
“I’m curious! How can you not be curious? But what’s the use? Will someone tell us?”
“Hey, do you think the person who won the bid this time is the same as the one who won the bid in Tianjing last time?”
“Well… It’s hard to say…”
“Considering that Tianjing is a relatively small town with limited exposure, it’s possible that someone in the current bidding recognizes the true worth of this treasure.”
As the crowd excitedly discussed, Gu Qingluan’s heart sank.
Ten thousand Xuanling Crystal Hearts, who in the world would offer such a high price!
She had thought that last time, Feng Tianlan had spent a hundred Xuanling Crystal Hearts to win it, which was already a high price. Even if the price went up a bit this time, it should only be a few times more. To be on the safe side, she had included all the crystal hearts and spirit stones on her body, totaling just about five thousand Xuanling Crystal Hearts.
She thought she had a sure win, but she still fell behind!
Who could spend so many Xuanling Crystal Hearts? It must be someone who recognized the Chaos Stone!
But who could it be?
Could it also be someone from the Tianji Continent?
Just now, He Lianjun had said that the Chaos Stone was a trap. Who had set this trap, and was it specifically aimed at VIP No. 999, who spent ten thousand Xuanling Crystal Hearts?
Countless thoughts flashed through Gu Qingluan’s mind.
Beside her, He Lianjun and the others were as excited as everyone else, speculating wildly about the ident.i.ty of VIP No. 999.
He had already speculated about the ident.i.ties of the prominent figures in the Cloud Plains Continent, but none of his guesses yielded a definitive answer.
After a long while, without getting a response from Gu Qingluan, He Lianjun finally sensed that something was wrong.
“Brother Jun? Brother Jun? Are you okay?”
Gu Qingluan moved her eyes slightly and glanced at him.
“Brother Jun, are you alright?”
“I’m fine.”
He Lianjun breathed a sigh of relief. “i thought you had been possessed just now. You didn’t say a word, and it was really creepy.”
Gu Qingluan tugged at the corner of her mouth. “You have a vivid imagination.”
“Well, it’s not bad.”
Gu Qingluan didn’t have time to banter with him and asked, “Can you find out the ident.i.ty of VIP No. 999?”
“Well, 1 can’t do that, but…” He Lianjun smirked. “We can sneak into the Shadow Tower and ask around.”
The Shadow Tower had several methods of trading, one of which allowed VIPs to remain anonymous. They only needed to pay a hefty commission and use the tower’s secret technique to have the auctioned item delivered to a designated location.
In this way, the safety and privacy of VIPs could be maximally protected.
Usually, it was difficult to find out the ident.i.ty of such high-value clients.
But maybe there would be some clues inside the Shadow Tower.
“Are you interested in finding out who the big spender is for ten thousand Xuanling Crystal Hearts? It’s not easy to get into the Shadow Tower, and once discovered, it’s a matter of life and death. Honestly, I think we don’t need to go in. Someone set a trap, right? I believe there will be quite a show after the auction ends!”
Gu Qingluan thought it over and agreed. Let’s wait and see.
The excitement at the auction scene increased significantly due to the stimulus of ten thousand Xuanling Crystal Hearts. Many people had no interest in the auction items anymore and continued to discuss the wealthy VIP.
Just then, Gu Qingluan suddenly felt a tug in her spiritual sense, as if she was being drawn by something..
