"Is there even a point to get so much attention like that?" asked Liang Meng who couldn't understand Liang Chen's actions.
"Yes there is. If you do something do it big. Remember your master's words disciple, in this world is either bully or be bullied. And I like very much being the first one. There is no point on talking just act. If someone gets on your nerves kill them. If someone tries to rob you, rob them clean. Always pay your debts fully." said Liang Chen in a awe inspiring tone with an hint of arrogance, but with a surprisingly serious face.
Liang Meng simply rolled her eyes. Why would the proud her even bully those beneath her? It was unsightly as a strong cultivator to do so.
"Aish, you just don't understand you disciple. I have always heard that auctions are great to show arrogance and to bully others so go on wild. Young people just have too much energy, so go wild to yout hears content! Hahaha!" this sounded like a conversation between a senior and a juniot, but in Liang Meng's years it sounded like he was making fun of her. This greatly infuriated her.
As she was preparing to glare coldly at him a voice resounded everywhere.
On a platform was a very beautiful woman in a bright red elegant dress.
"Thank you very much everyone for coming here today. Our Purity Hall is honored by everyone's presence. Today is the one in four decades aunction, so all the items are of the highest quality and were all found in the many dangerous places in this world. So with this let the auction begin!"
"I really hate auctions. It's always filled with this crap." said Liang Chen in a very disappointed tone.
Liang Meng for once understood him. These people never went to what was important. Why speak so much when they can just say 'Let the auction begin', what is so difficult about that? She simply couldn't understan either.
The first few items sold by extraordinary prices, but neither of two found them useful at all. This continued on until the middle of the auction, where a seemingly normal stone of the size of an adult fist was taken out. When the stone appeared, many couldn't understand what it was, but there was one person who knew its true value, naturally it was Liang Meng.
This stone was known by two names, but the most commonly used, and also the most well-known was Cold Formation Stone. It was incredibly useful to make weapons that could amplify ice related formations. It was incredibly rare, so rare she herself couldn't find it even after exploring for hundreds for years.
"We don't know what this stone is used for, but it is incredibly strange. Even after our experts used their strongest attacks it couldn't be damaged, so we concluded that it's extremely useful to make armors." explained the woman.
As soon as Liang Meng heard it she had the urge to go on stage and kill that pathetically idiot woman. Such blasphemy. Using such material like that. If they really used like that anyone who knew its true value would exterminate their bloodline to appease the heavens of such stupid people.
"Little disciple master is very worried that you would die off somewhere, so master has decided to buy you a powerful armor." as he said that he expected a nod but only received an incredibly cold and hate filled glare. He almost cried. He was so kind yet received evil.
"Is this what they mean by 'bitting the hand that feed them'?" Liang Chen questioned in a loud voice, only to receive a murderous look that made him shut up immediately.
"The starting price shall be 100 000 gold coins."
This was a dying worls so gold was the currency. If anything with spirituality was found, then it was a treasure. How could they use it as money?
"500 000." everyone heard a cold voice from the top room and were scared. They had all heard the previous commotion and they naturally knew who was originally on that room, but they did not even dare to speak of it, so what character was inside at the moment?
"Our Wei Kingdom wants this stone so I hope everyone will give way. 1 000 000 gold coins." said a dignified voice from within one of the vip rooms.
"That's the crown prince of the Wei Kingdom."
"I heard he has great ambitions and a profound cultivation."
"Who the f$ck do you think you are? This daddy here now wants it. If you dare speak again in my presence this daddy here shall shove your mounth in your a$s so you don't spout anymore bullsh$t." Liang Chen said with a disdainful voice full of ridicule towards that room that just spoke.
The auction house was immediately sent silent. Who dared to speak in such a way to the Wei Kingdom. They were on par with the Wu Empire after all. They were even more mystified by this.
"Who so you think you are to speak to our crow..." said an elderly voice but he couldn't finish speaking before a spear light flew towards the room and as quickly as it went inside it left with a head, and put it on the rooms wall, but not long after the spear light went inside again and left with the body's storage bag.
"So, anymore complaints?" asked Liang Chen as he grinned and lifted the curtain up to grab the bag. By the side Liang Meng got an insight by what he meant by "being the one to bully". By doing this they made sure no one else dared to bid againts them.
The whole auction house went silent as they felt cold sweat on their backs. The crown prince just asked nicely out of courtesy and was immediately threatened and when an elder spoke, he was immediately beheaded and robbed. The person in there simply did not care for anyone. There were rules in here, but he disregarded them completely.
Inside the room Liang Chen looked at his disciple with a proud gaze that seemed to be hoping for something, but only received a disdainful gaze from her, making him more depressed.
"Sir..." even the red dressed woman did not know what to do. It was a first that someone dared to kill in such a way. If it was outside it was none of their business but like this...
"What? Did you forget to count until three? This daddy here wants to leave today. Tomorrow this daddy here will go to that whatever Empire that has offended me. So hurry it up." his voice sounded again. And from his voice people knew that he treated both the Wei Kingdom and the Empire he was going to as air.
Who was thid madman? Was the question in many heads at the moment. And a few were already having a headache. This voice, this dammed voice. How could they forget it? Many elders here, and even ancestors were made to pay "protection fees" to a certain someone in the past. This was a dark history that was happily agrees by them all to be burried with them. And they hoped to never hear it again, but now it was back.
This person was unreasonable to a whole new level. He always did what he said, and by the rumours that Empire should be the Wu Empire. They had offended him in the past, but no one knew how. They only knew it was related to their princess and some other woman, and some techniques. They knew parts and could pretty much figure it out, but didn't have the energy to do so. Anything related to this man was never good.
But they were going to suffer, and that was the most important stuff. As long as it wasn't them it was all nice, hell with that, they would even help or applauds if he wanted them to. The other party always lost something, and the less they had, the better.
The auction house did not really know how to handle this. After all their leaders told them to treat this man as they would treat them. But they couldn't just ignore this, otherwise where would their reputation go?
"Come on. I don't have all day. Littke sh$ts get out! You are interrupting this important and world famous auction. How dare you?!" said Liang Chen in a self righteous tone.
Those who knew him knew there was a past grivance between the Wei Kingdom and him. It was just that they paid a great price to scram as far as they could from him. And he wouldn't go out of his way to kill them, but if they appeared, well that was a whole new story.
"Do you know who you just killed?" that dignified voice sounded again.
"Boy, this daddy here allowed you to leave already. If it wasn't for your ancestors giving me a lot of stuff to let your little washed down little village go, do you think you would be alive today?" his voice this time wasn't arrogant, but as freezing as the word freezing could go.
Instantly the whole auction could feel a spear coming to reap their souls. Some who previously did not know who that person was, were instantly "enlightened".
