Listening to Xie Qiyi's words, Xie Honglang remained noncommittal.
In his opinion, people like Bai Li Hongzhuang and Di Beichen probably had no shortage of money. By bidding in this manner, they would only make the other party spend more money, and it would only serve to offend them. It simply wasn't worth it.
However, Xie Honglang knew that Xie Qiyi would never listen to him, so he decided not to say anything further.
"Two hundred thousand gold coins!" Bai Li Hongzhuang's eyes narrowed. She wanted to see how high Xie Qiyi could push the price.
With Bai Li Hongzhuang's words, the entire auction hall fell into a stunned silence. This was truly an astronomical price!
Two hundred thousand gold coins could buy even a Huang-ranked martial technique. Yet Bai Li Hongzhuang was now spending such a sum just to bid on a sheepskin scroll whose value was unknown. This was truly a display of extravagant spending!
This was a contest between the rich!
Each bid made their hearts tremble!
Some cultivators couldn't help but swallow their saliva. If they had two hundred thousand gold coins, they would never spend it in such a place.
"Bai Li Hongzhuang is really rich. Could it be that the Yuan family is supporting her?"
"I don't think so. The Yuan family is supposed to bid for the ultimate Profound-ranked martial technique. Where would they get so much money to lavish on Bai Li Hongzhuang?"
"In that case, it seems reasonable for the Yuan family to attach such importance to Bai Li Hongzhuang and Di Beichen."
Tong Jingshuo felt like his heart was about to stop beating. Two hundred thousand gold coins, that was a truly astronomical price!
Such a price wouldn't even be achieved for the finale item in an ordinary auction. But even before the finale, a Five-grade item had already fetched this price. This would be a highlight in his career as an auctioneer!
When Xie Honglang heard the bid of two hundred thousand gold coins, his gaze couldn't help but change slightly, and he quickly said, "Big brother, let's stop here. Don't bid anymore."
He had a vague premonition that if Xie Qiyi continued bidding and Bai Li Hongzhuang didn't counterbid, then they would be stuck with the sheepskin scroll.
However, Xie Qiyi only glanced disdainfully at Xie Honglang and completely disregarded his words.
Bai Li Hongzhuang was just a woman, and she wouldn't act so rationally. What he wanted was to make Bai Li Hongzhuang bid the highest price in a state of losing her composure.
Once the bidding went too high and Bai Li Hongzhuang didn't have enough money, it would be quite exciting.
Yesterday, they made a fool of him in front of everyone, and today, he would make Bai Li Hongzhuang lose all face!
"Two hundred thousand and one hundred gold coins!" Xie Qiyi spoke up.
As Xie Qiyi raised the bid again, everyone's gaze fell on the two VIP boxes on the second floor. They truly wanted to know what the final price of the sheepskin scroll would be.
When Xie Qiyi bid again, a cold smile appeared at the corner of Bai Li Hongzhuang's lips.
"Since the young master of the Xie family is so fond of this sheepskin scroll, I'll give it to you."
Her voice was cool and indifferent, laced with a hint of mockery. After saying those words, Bai Li Hongzhuang took a snack and began to savor it.
Seeing Bai Li Hongzhuang's smiling face, Yuan Hongyang and Yuan Liqing were momentarily stunned.
They had been worried that Bai Li Hongzhuang would suffer great losses in her contest with Xie Qiyi. But now it seemed that Bai Li Hongzhuang didn't care at all?
Feeling the astonished gazes of Yuan Hongyang and Yuan Liqing, Bai Li Hongzhuang smiled lightly. "Since he likes it so much, I'll indulge him. It's just a sheepskin scroll after all."
