Chapter 427 Regretful Lin Suxian
Of course, what Chu Siyuan cared about most was what secrets were hidden in the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron that made Zhao Shuang care so much about it.

Compared to the competition between Chu Siyuan and Zhang Ruoji and the discussions of other people, Zhao Shuang's face had turned a little dark.

After all, the current price has reached a level that he can hardly afford.

Although the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron cannot compare to it even with 100,000 divine stones.

But even though it is not as good as the original, its price has now reached 300,000 holy stones.

The smile on the face of the Pavilion Master of Zhuguang Pavilion was almost as bright as a chrysanthemum, it was simply brilliant.

Lin Suxian was also very happy. Of course, besides being happy, he was also vaguely uneasy, wondering if he had missed something.

Lin Suxian had more than one person who shared the same idea. Even if others had doubts, they didn't dare to bid against him. What if this was a trick of the Pearl Light Pavilion?
Although it's impossible, what if it happens? And with so many Shengsheng stones, even the saintly families of the Middle Ages would find it difficult to collect them.

"Five hundred thousand holy stones"!
As soon as the price was announced, the entire Zhuguang Pavilion fell silent again, and everyone looked at Zhang Ruoji who made the bid.

Because this price is almost equivalent to the entire wealth of a medieval saint family.

At the same time, this price has completely exceeded the limit that the Murong family can afford, and is even equivalent to half of the Murong family.

Therefore, many people doubted whether Zhang Ruoji could come up with so many holy stones. After all, the price was too high, higher than all the records in the history of Zhuguang Pavilion.

So when this price appeared, Lin Suxian couldn't help but ask.

"If Chen Xing uses so many holy stones, I wonder what you will use as collateral?"

Like Lin Suxian, other people in Zhuguang Pavilion did not think that Zhang Ruoji could take out so many holy stones in one go.

After all, with so many holy stones, it would not be an easy task for a star envoy from the First-Class Hall in the black market, even for a saint or even a saint king to take them out. Even a saint could not take them out, unless it was a painting saint like Chu Siyuan.

In response to Lin Suxian's questioning, Zhang Ruoji simply took out something from his storage bracelet.

A holy artifact with a thousand patterns!
A large golden tripod that is extremely similar to the Kaiyuan Deer Tripod, but the difference is that this one is golden and has eight lifelike golden dragons engraved on it. Each golden dragon is made up of thousands of inscriptions, showing the supreme dragon power and holy light.

Of course, this is not an ordinary thousand-patterned holy weapon, but a holy weapon with eight thousand patterns, which is not far from the ten thousand-patterned holy weapon.

"This is the Thousand-Patterned Dragon-Controlling Cauldron. It was once the sacred artifact of the Shengming Empire."

"It seems that the Murong family gave it to him. After all, the Murong family was a diehard supporter of the Shengming Empire, so it's not impossible for them to obtain this holy weapon. But if the Ruochen Star Envoy is a descendant of the Shengming Empire, then doesn't that mean that the First Realm Son, King Ji Tian, ​​could also be a descendant of the Shengming Empire? If I remember correctly, the royal family of the Shengming Empire is surnamed Zhang."

As soon as this speculative voice appeared, the eyes of everyone in the entire Zhuguang Pavilion were once again completely focused on Zhang Ruoji.

"This holy artifact should be enough."

In fact, Zhang Ruoji had no choice but to bring up this matter. After all, he did not have that many holy stones on him. Fortunately, he was lucky enough to obtain a treasure from the Shengming Empire.

It was precisely because of this treasure that he had reached his current level, able to catch up with other talented people in the Kunlun Realm. However, he had not expected the price of the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron to be so high. If this continued, even if he held a treasure of the Shengming Empire in his hands, he would find it difficult to afford it.

So at this point, even he can only hope that the painting saint Chu Siyuan will not continue to raise the price, otherwise he will have no choice but to give up.

After all, if he continued to elevate his status like this, who knows how many semi-saints and saints would covet the treasures on his body. Now everyone knew that he must have hidden a large amount of wealth and treasures, and the identity of a first-class black market star envoy was not enough to guarantee his safety.

And it is very likely that the saints in the black market themselves will covet him. After all, he is only a half-saint star envoy now.

This is why he has always wanted to obtain the identity of the young master of the First Grade Hall of the Emperor's Black Market. This identity can provide him with more protection and security, and also allow him to have some power to compete with the First Central Empire.

After all, the black market in Kunlun Realm has been fighting against the First Central Empire, which is equivalent to a dark empire.

However, if he gave up the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron this time, Zhang Ruoji felt that he would never be able to obtain the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron again in his lifetime.

The reason why Zhao Shuang didn't spread rumors to stop Zhang Ruoji from competing for the Kaiyuan Deer Tripod was also due to this consideration. He was worried that if he did, it would backfire. It would attract Zhang Ruoji's attention and cause him to stop at nothing to get the Kaiyuan Deer Tripod, which would then cause even more trouble.

Because Zhang Ruoji now obviously just thinks that the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron is the ancestral sacrificial vessel of the Shengming Empire.

If Zhao Shuang spoke, it would inevitably arouse his vigilance, resulting in the opposite effect.

Judging from the current relationship between the two, they are not brothers, and it can even be said that there is hostility between them.

And now, Concubine Lin has been taken away from Yunwu Commandery by Zhang Ruoji.

Zhao Shuang didn't care too much about this matter. After all, Concubine Lin was just an ordinary woman, and he had had enough fun with her. Naturally, there was no need to care too much about it.

Therefore, the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron can only be given to the painting saint Chu Siyuan to compete for, and he cannot interfere, otherwise the consequences will be difficult to predict.

However, at this time, the gaze of the Painting Saint Chu Siyuan fell on Zhao Shuang opposite him. At this moment, his eyes and face were full of suspicion. After all, he was the one who knew Zhao Shuang's identity best in the entire Zhuguang Pavilion.

"You kid, don't you really have any relationship with the Shengming Empire? Otherwise, why would you attach so much importance to this Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron?"

The painting saint Chu Siyuan had to be suspicious. After all, Zhao Shuang's attitude just now was too suspicious.

"Senior, you're worrying too much. I truly have no connection to the Shengming Empire. If there truly were a connection, do you think Her Majesty the Queen wouldn't notice? Would she not discover it? Would she still allow me to become a child of this realm? And personally crowning me as Heavenly King? This is all just a coincidence. As for why my ninth brother values ​​the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron so highly, it must be related to the Murong family. After all, the Murong family is also a vassal of the Shengming Empire, and it's not impossible for them to want to restore the Shengming Empire. Right? I'm also considering Her Majesty the Queen and the Kunlun Realm, and the origins of the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron are indeed extraordinary. Please feel free to take it. I would never deceive you with such an important matter."

Zhao Shuang explained helplessly. He had not expected that there was such a smart person in Zhuguang Pavilion who could think of this.

But maybe this is just a coincidence, and I hope it is just a coincidence.

Of course, Zhao Shuang also knew that he did have a connection with the Shengming Empire.

It’s just that they are the main veins, while the others are not, they are just branches.

Just as everyone was discussing the matter and the woman in red was about to announce the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron's ownership, Chu Siyuan, after Zhao Shuang's persuasion, finally decided to raise the price. "Five hundred and ten thousand holy stones."

As soon as the price of 510,000 holy stones was announced, everyone's gaze towards the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron changed. Even Lin Suxian herself felt a little regretful for putting such a thing up for auction.
She always felt that she had made the most wrong decision in her life. But now it was impossible to take it back, otherwise she would definitely offend the painting master Chu Siyuan.

Just when Lin Suxian was considering whether to cancel the auction, even at the risk of offending Chu Siyuan.

Another voice of raising the price appeared.

"Fifty-two thousand holy stones!"

The voice that raised the price was not from Zhang Ruoji, but from Kong Hongbi, the young master of Mingtang.

At this moment, with the fierce competition between Zhang Ruoji and Chu Siyuan, and a competition at all costs, even if the young master Mingtang was dumb, he could see that the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron was not simple, so he chose to increase the price.

Although it was difficult for him to mobilize so many holy stones with his status, if he really discovered something, he would make a fortune. He also vaguely felt that if he could get the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron, it might make the most important decision in his life and change his destiny.

"Mingtang has also joined in. Can Kong Hongbi mobilize so many holy stones? Don't let it all go to waste in the end."

"Never mind whether he can be mobilized or not. This Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron is definitely not a simple ancestral sacrificial vessel. I have a feeling it must be hiding a shocking secret."

Isn't this nonsense? Everyone knows it, but can you take out more holy stones? Now. It is almost impossible to take out so many holy stones. "

"Besides, what's the point of buying it? The most important thing is to get it and leave this black market. But in the current situation, even for the Painting Saint Chu Siyuan, it would not be easy to leave safely after obtaining it."

"Let's not talk about whether we can leave after we get it, but for this Star Envoy Ruochen from the First-Rank Hall in the Black Market, it might not be easy to leave."

"And this statement is also the truth. After all, when Zhang Ruoji took out the Thousand Pattern Sacred Artifact, the Thousand Pattern Imperial Dragon, it was already doomed. Now he has been targeted by many Semi-Saints and Saints."

"You know, even for an ordinary saint, it's not easy to obtain a thousand-patterned holy weapon, let alone a thousand-patterned holy weapon that is close to ten thousand-patterned holy weapon."

"You kid, why don't you tell your younger brother to give up immediately? Otherwise, I don't know how many holy stones you will have to pay to get this Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron."

At this moment, the painting saint Chu Siyuan was also extremely troubled. He did not expect that this Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron would cause such a big disturbance.

Now it seems that the three parties are determined to take the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron at all costs.

"If I speak now, this Ninth Brother will be even less likely to give up. Now it all depends on how many Holy Stones he has. Let's continue to raise the price, Senior Painting Saint."

This was said with some gnashing of teeth.

After all, even with Zhao Shuang's current wealth, it would be difficult for him to come up with so many holy stones. He didn't know how much he would have to sell. Although his family was rich enough, it really couldn't withstand such a glorious event. Although the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron was worth the price, it still made him feel extremely painful.

Hearing Zhao Shuang continue to raise the price, the painting saint Chu Siyuan no longer had any reservations and spoke directly.

"Six hundred thousand holy stones."

When the price of 600,000 Holy Stones appeared, everyone couldn't help but doubt Chu Siyuan. Did he really have such a huge fortune?

After all, this price actually means selling the painting saint Chu Siyuan.

It is estimated that only the Huazong is willing to bid for it.

Although Chu Siyuan's status as a painting saint is basically priceless, it also depends on the situation. The price is only relative.

After all, 600,000 holy stones is already a sky-high price.

As expected, as soon as this price was announced, the faces of Zhang Ruoji, Kong Hongbi, and even Zhao Shuang himself turned extremely dark.

However, this price did not make Lin Suxian happy at all. She always felt that she had missed an opportunity.

Although it was impossible for Zhang to get it with her identity, this feeling made her extremely uncomfortable. She wanted to give up, but doing so would not only offend the Black Market Yipintang, Mingtang, and Huazong, but also Chu Siyuan was Luo Xu's good friend.

"Palace Master, what should we do? Should we call for a halt? If we continue to study the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron, what secrets could it hold that warrant their attention? If it truly is a truly earth-shattering secret or opportunity, we're afraid we'll be reprimanded by the Sect Leader."

The smile on the face of the current Zhuguang Pavilion Master also became extremely stiff. He also realized that the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron was not simple, but they had studied it for hundreds of years and still could not find any usefulness. They just felt that it was just a bronze tripod made of special materials.
But now it seems that they are obviously not capable enough to find the clues.

"If we stop the auction now, the Divine Cult will be in turmoil. After all, no matter whether it's the black market, the Mingtang, or even the Painting Sect, they won't let go of the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron. There are also other major forces that want it. If the Divine Cult can still be at peace at that time, it would be strange."

Lin Suxian now had no choice but to smile bitterly.

After all, it was during the period of price increase just now.

Hundreds of light talismans have been sent out throughout the Zhuguang Pavilion, and one can guess without even checking the contents that they are all related to the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron.

Today, the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron must be the most eye-catching treasure in the entire black market.

But they, the Moon Worshiping Cult, gave up such a treasure alive.

If the secret of Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron is exposed in the future.

I'm afraid that the entire Divine Religion will become a laughing stock in the Kunlun world, and they will not be able to escape punishment.

But now, they can only watch and continue to compete.

If we stop it now, as Lin Suxian said, the Moon Worshiping Demon Cult will never be able to live in peace again.
