The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 906: Chapter 906: Dispute

billion!

What concept is this?

Cheng Yu was so excited that he nearly jumped up. His hands trembled as he was about to strike the small hammer, when suddenly—

A deep male voice said, ”5.1 billion.”

Hiss~

The crowd gasped collectively, Cheng Yu was also trembling with excitement and almost dropped his hammer. He looked over to the bidder and found the person to be a new face, meticulously styled blonde hair, blue eyes, a high nose, fair skin—this was—

An Ancient Earth’s standard Western face, looking at his appearance, the bloodline seemed quite pure.

Cheng Yu was not particularly concerned about such looks; he had always preferred his own black hair and eyes, a trait of Ancient Earth’s oriental lineage. But all of this did not matter. What mattered was this person’s identity—

His appearance was very similar to the Augustine family from the Main Star Nami Star, but with subtle differences, as if the skin tone was slightly off.

The Augustine family is one of the Alliance’s very powerful and ancient families, strict in maintaining family bloodline, with requirements on hair, skin, eyes...etc. The person in front only could have been born from the Augustine family’s collateral line.

Hmm~

No matter if they were direct descendants or collateral ones, at this moment, they are customers.

With a smile on his lips, Cheng Yu said, ”This friend here bids 5.1 billion, any more bids?”

Augustine Nolan’s face was calm, but Xu Siyu next to him was very nervous, clenching her fists tightly.

[Senior Nolan is bound to succeed this time.

Such a high price must succeed!]

The surroundings were silent, the audience thought this price could seal the deal, but unexpectedly, the next second, someone said, ”5.2 billion.”

Augustine Nolan’s expression froze, and his calm face also stiffened.

The boy, known online as Hero King, real name Wei Xiaoxiong, looked sullen and displeased.

Beside him, his classmate, a boy named Wu Jingyue, online name King’s Expedition, not quite approvingly said, ”Xiaoxiong, I think this price is already inappropriate.”

billion had completely exceeded the actual value of the soul artifact. Wu Jingyue disagreed with Wei Xiaoxiong’s madness and irrational behavior, now it was actually going for 5 billion!

Have you gone mad?

When Wei Xiaoxiong shouted out 5.2 billion, he himself felt a bit like beating the drum. It wasn’t that he couldn’t afford 5 billion, but spending such a large sum of money would inevitably alert his family and prompt them to reassess the heir.

But—

This soul artifact was extremely important to Wei Xiaoxiong, his S-level physique and A-level spiritual power had been stuck at A-level for a very, very long time. He tried many methods and used many soul artifacts, but none had any effect.

By chance, Wei Xiaoxiong obtained a low-level soul artifact from the soul artifact maker named Qingyou. The low-level soul artifact she made actually showed obvious signs of loosening his stubbornly blocked spiritual power.

Low-level already achieved this?

What about high-level?

Wei Xiaoxiong could not remain at A-level for too long because the family didn’t need an heir who couldn’t break through the realm. His half-brother with Double S-level, and his cousin who just broke through to Double S-level, were both eyeing his position eagerly.

Hearing Wu Jingyue’s words, Wei Xiaoxiong calmly said, ”This price is already almost bottomed out. As long as that unidentified person doesn’t compete with me, can the collateral of the Augustine family still want to rob me?”

When he said this, arrogance was imbued in every word.

Since Wei Xiaoxiong insisted on this, Wu Jingyue remained silent.

...

Another 10 million added!!!

The record is constantly refreshing, Cheng Yu waved the small hammer excitedly: ”My god, even I couldn’t imagine Green Glaze Master’s work would be so popular! 5.2 billion!”

”Who else?”

”Is there anyone who wants to raise the bid?”

Augustine Nolan’s face was heavy at the moment. He pressed his lips and spoke again, ”5.3 billion!”

Wei Xiaoxiong’s face suddenly darkened, ”5.4 billion!”

Xu Siyu anxiously tugged at Augustine Nolan’s sleeve, whispering, ”Senior Nolan, I think this price...” There’s... no need to buy it anymore.

Augustine Nolan raised his head, looking toward Wei Xiaoxiong’s place, with a smile on his lips, ”5.5 billion.”

Wei Xiaoxiong frowned.

The crowd watching opened their mouths wide, eyes widened, ”!!!”

”5.5 billion!”

”Damn! So much!”

”I’ve never seen that many credit points in my life.”

”Who are these two people? Why so much money?”

...

The audience’s discussion did not affect the tense standoff between Wei Xiaoxiong and Augustine Nolan, Cheng Yu also slightly frowned, knowing the identities of these two must not be simple, but...

Who cares?

As long as they don’t come to ruin the place, that’s fine.

Cheng Yu began to be a bit vigilant in his mind; if these two started fighting and affected the normal operation of the Green Glaze Master Shop, that wouldn’t be good. Thus, Cheng Yu maintained a smile on his face but was cautious, saying: ”5.5 billion! Anyone else bidding?”

Wei Xiaoxiong tightly furrowed his brows.

Augustine Nolan, with a smile on his lips, had already determined Wei Xiaoxiong had reached a difficult juncture.

Xu Siyu was a bit nervous: ”Senior Nolan, will you raise the bid again?”

Augustine Nolan said casually: ”This soul artifact is important to me, and also to the other. If I’m not mistaken, this person should be someone from the Wei family. So he will definitely raise the bid again.” Nolan, born into the Augustine family, with the Augustine family being an old, vast, and thriving family in the Alliance, not just direct descendants, collateral lines, branch lines...were all rooted in various places in the Alliance...

Augustine Nolan’s abilities were strong, having already gained support from the direct line of the Main Star, so he had some understanding of the happenings on the Main Star. The Wei family, one of the top ten families in the Alliance, was recently embroiled in an heir dispute, and this person known online as Hero King was definitely someone from the Wei family, even quite possibly the prospective heir Wei Xiaoxiong.

In terms of financial power, Augustine Nolan could not compete with Wei Xiaoxiong, but—

Even if he couldn’t obtain it himself, he definitely wouldn’t let the opponent have it easily.

Thus, Nolan directly opened his mouth and added another 10 million.

Wei Xiaoxiong?

After waiting for a moment, indeed, as Augustine Nolan foresaw, Wei Xiaoxiong tightened his brows and said: ”5.6 billion.”

Augustine Nolan smiled, ”5.7 billion.”

Wei Xiaoxiong said with a sullen face, ”This friend, I think we need to talk privately.”

Augustine Nolan shook his head, suddenly said in a sincere tone, ”I’m very sorry, I need this soul artifact very much. If you are willing to give up, I could consider talking with you privately.”

Wei Xiaoxiong: ”You—”
