Dual Cultivator with a cultivation system - Chapter 515
Capítulo 515: Ch-515
Everyone looked enviously at the old man who was laughing madly, but only a few people showed no sign of panic or surprise and realized the show was not over yet. In the next second—
Woosh!
A fierce flame erupted from the small fire and enveloped the old man like a dragon breathing fire, and before he could even react, he was burned to ashes.
“Heavens, he didn’t even get a chance to scream before he died!”
“Terrifying, absolutely terrifying! Is this the power of an Immortal Rank alchemic flame? Truly worthy of its name.”
“At first, I regretted not going up there and missing a golden opportunity, but now I’m glad I didn’t go, or my fate would have been the same as his.”
The crowd whispered as they cast fearful glances at the hovering flame.
“Haha, interesting,” Lu Bai laughed loudly upon seeing the man turn to ashes. Unlike many in the audience who showed fear, he became even greedier to obtain it.
An alchemist jumped up from a VVIP box with a peculiar expression and hurriedly said, “Friends, if you entrust the Immortal Flame to me, I promise, as an alchemist, to fulfill any of your requests unconditionally!”
“What arrogance!” A powerful expert from another VVIP room also stood up, coldly staring at the alchemist. “I am also very interested in this flame. Just because you are an alchemist doesn’t mean we will be afraid of you. Moreover, this alchemic flame has combat ability—it would be better suited in the hands of a fighter rather than an alchemist.”
“You—” The alchemist’s face turned red as he gritted his teeth upon hearing those words and clenched his fists. If a glare could kill, that man would have died a hundred times over.
Woosh!
Suddenly, an aura burst out from the stage, targeting the two men who were arguing, and their knees almost buckled. Everyone looked toward the source and saw Jiang Ruoxi staring at them with cold eyes.
“Guests, please do not cause trouble here and return to your seats. If you want the flame, bid for it like everyone else. If you continue to cause trouble, I will have to kick you out,” Jiang Ruoxi said. The men calmed down, snorted at each other, and returned to their seats.
“Alright, there is no starting price for the bid. Everyone can start bidding freely,” Jiang Ruoxi announced.
“100 million Mid Grade Spirit Stones!” Lu Bai announced loudly, then looked at the crowd. “I hope everyone can let me have it. Everyone will gain the friendship of the Human Puppet Sect.”
Lu Bai said this arrogantly. Unlike the others, he was not afraid of Jiang Ruoxi and did not give her face, knowing she could not do anything to him.
‘Bastard,’ Jiang Ruoxi cursed inwardly while glaring at Lu Bai with helpless murderous intent. If he were only at the Peak Golden Core Realm, she could kick him out, but now…
Helpless, she looked toward the Royal Box.
Royal Box
“This guy is acting too wantonly,” Zhang Shiyu said with furrowed eyebrows, though there was a trace of nervousness in her voice.
“This bastard is really arrogant. Father, you should intervene, or it will tarnish our Wu Family’s name and make it seem like the Royal Family is being intimidated,” Wu Jing said in annoyance as she looked at Wu Junhao, who was frowning. She then looked at Lu Bai with a cold expression.
“I know,” Wu Junhao said. He was wary but not afraid and was about to intervene when a voice echoed across the hall.
“200 million Mid Grade Spirit Stones!”
A young male voice echoed as everyone’s heads turned toward the box.
“Oh,” Wu Junhao raised an eyebrow when he saw the same man who had previously bought the flying treasure from the Tang Family’s box, then smirked. “Interesting.”
Tang Family Box
“What?!” Not only Tang Ning and Tang Nian, but even Feng Mei exclaimed—not just because of his wealth, but also because of his audacity in competing with Lu Bai who they assumed was stronger than Wang Ming.
“Wang Ming…” Feng Mei furrowed her eyebrows in concern, and sure enough, pressure descended upon their box. Their bodies were instantly covered in sweat.
“Hey, brat, are you sure you want to compete with me?” Lu Bai looked toward Wang Ming’s box and said in a sinister voice. He was angry and amused that someone was going against him. He had thought it would be the Wu Family, and if they had acted, he would not have flexed his aura. But someone else, who did not know the difference between heaven and earth, had decided to challenge him, so he chose to teach them a lesson.
When those words left Lu Bai’s mouth, everyone watched with bated breath, while some whispered.
“Youngsters are really impulsive these days.”
“Yes, he should have been satisfied with the treasures he already bought. Now that he has offended Lu Bai, he won’t have a good end.”
Many in the crowd were worried, while some watched with amusement, wishing for a good show.
But in the next moment, not only Lu Bai’s expression changed—everyone’s did—when an even more powerful aura descended from the box. His arrogant expression froze instantly as he exclaimed, “What?!”
“This…” Lu Bai’s pupils shrank to the size of pinpricks when he felt his aura and momentum being suppressed by the new aura descending from the box.
“What—Wang Ming, you… are at the Pure Core Realm?” Tang Ning’s jaw dropped to the floor as she sensed the cultivation radiating from Wang Ming.
Gulp.
Tang Nian swallowed a mouthful of saliva as they felt the pressure bearing down on them. Even though Wang Ming did not target them, they could still feel the power.
“Damn, this rascal didn’t tell me he broke through,” Feng Mei grumbled inwardly and relaxed. Her heart had almost stopped beating when she saw Wang Ming trying to mess with Lu Bai, who was at the Pure Core Realm.
