Of which ten million is his own, seeking a suitable gift of longevity, while the remaining forty million was given by his father, to ensure they could acquire the Mysterious Jade Furnace!
Fifty million!
The crowd in the auction house was dumbfounded.
"Indeed worthy of the Chen Family from the Kunwu Sect, spending fifty million in one breath without batting an eye!"
"Hmph, this Chen Hao is nothing special after all. Competing with others and daring to throw fifty million so recklessly, even if he wins this Mysterious Jade Furnace, how could he explain it to his family? Even though his Chen Family is one of the five great families of the Kunwu Sect, the amount of Immortal Stones they can mobilize is probably not too large. Yet, this Young Master is willing to throw out so many Immortal Stones just to compete?"
"It’s not just about competing, because what that guy said earlier... it’s practically a declaration of war. If this Young Master Chen falters, he may have a hard ti explaining it when he returns ho."
"But will he go further? Will he really bid fifty million and one?"
Indeed, all eyes turned to Ye Luo!
Though it seed on the surface that Chen Hao was competing, because of Ye Luo’s earlier words, it represented a declaration of war against the Chen Family.
So, will Ye Luo take it on? Will he continue to advance?
At this mont, Ye Luo’s brows furrowed slightly.
He underestimated Chen Hao’s boldness, to bid fifty million in one shot!
However, what does fifty million an? Ye Luo brought the entire wealth of Ao Long this ti, wasn’t it just to suppress Chen Hao?
"Fifty million and one!"
He took it on!
He really took it on!
Chen Hao, like a deflated balloon, sat down on the ground.
Yet, in the auction house, the crowd couldn’t help but burst into waves of discussion!
This is a blatant declaration of war!
Indeed, this ti there’s no denying it, when Ye Luo offered fifty million and one, it ant the intention to fight the Chen Family to the bitter end!
But, in that private room, who is he, and which power does he represent?
In an instant, everyone was imnsely shocked.
In other private rooms, countless people also discussed it.
Sitting in the private rooms, their identities were naturally special to so extent.
Among them, many possessed power not weaker than the Chen Family, perhaps not as strong as the Kunwu Sect, but quite a few could surpass just the Chen Family!
At this mont, everyone’s eyes were fixed on the room where Ye Luo was!
Unfortunately, even so, they couldn’t see through that room; this auction venue was set up by the Dragon Clan, how could they easily see through it?
Of course, speculation was inevitable, and quite a few had already begun to calculate secretly, if indeed a super war breaks out, what should they do!
In fact, all of this was them overthinking!
Ye Luo had no real backing; if there had to be one, it would be Ao Long at most.
But even Ao Long couldn’t really be considered his backing; if Ye Luo truly went head to head with the Chen Family, Ao Long would likely stand on Ye Luo’s side, but it would be Ao Long himself, that’s all.
Ye Luo, in fact, had nothing, and indeed there were countless people wanting Ye Luo dead, such as the Returnees!
However, the declaration of war was real, not only against Chen Hao but also against two others; Ye Luo would find ways to deal with them, even if there was no chance to kill, he would suppress them in other ways!
"You, you, you..."
Chen Hao’s voice trembled, fifty million!
That was fifty million, originally he thought, by disregarding everything and throwing out all his cards, at the very least, this Mysterious Jade Furnace would be his; offering fifty million had already proven Chen Hao’s bravery!
If it were soone else, who would have such courage!
Yet who knew Ye Luo still took it, just as Ye Luo said, no matter how much Chen Hao offered, he would always add one!
Chen Hao really wanted to raise the bid; this task could not be allowed to fail, the most crucial thing was why that guy was only eyeing this Mysterious Jade Furnace?
Could it be, he knew the secret of the Mysterious Jade Furnace?
To be honest, Chen Hao didn’t really know what kind of secret the Mysterious Jade Furnace held!
Only his father, the Family Head of the Chen Family, told him, this Mysterious Jade Furnace hides a colossal secret of the Chen Family! If an outsider found out, the entire Chen Family would be beyond redemption!
No, failure is not an option!
Chen Hao appeared crazed.
"I bid fifty million, plus various resources worth five million Immortal Stones!"
This was all Chen Hao had; you could say he put everything he had into it!
Five million Immortal Stones worth of resources was the limit Chen Hao could offer!
However, this ti, before Ye Luo could speak, the auctioneer said: "Sorry, this auction house only accepts resources or treasures evaluated and exchanged into Immortal Stones, if they haven’t been evaluated, they are not accepted!"
Indeed, Longhun City’s auction house had always been this way, recognizing only Immortal Stones!
No bartering allowed, even if you want to barter, you must first have your item evaluated, then exchange it into Immortal Stones before buying.
And now, Chen Hao’s actions clearly didn’t conform to the rules!
"Alright, Mysterious Jade Furnace, fifty million and one, is there another bid?"
"If not, then the auction for the Mysterious Jade Furnace ends here, next, the auction item is..."
Fail!
Failed to acquire the Mysterious Jade Furnace!
Chen Hao’s face was pale, his father to prevent him from being careless, had clearly told him, this Mysterious Jade Furnace seems simple, but is definitely not simple, within it hides an earth-shattering secret enough to bring the Chen Family to ruin!
Chen Hao though didn’t know what the secret was!
But Chen Hao knew, his father would never lie to him!
At this mont, only two words lingered in Chen Hao’s heart: "It’s over!"
Everything is over, not only for himself, but likely, the Chen Family is dood!
Failing to acquire the Mysterious Jade Furnace as instructed, even if his father wants to save him, he cannot, other mbers of the Chen Family would never agree!
And since this guy has been eyeing the Mysterious Jade Furnace, even preparing so thoroughly, there’s a good chance he knows its secret!
Once the secret is revealed, the Chen Family would likely fall into extensive trouble.
After all, Chen Hao’s father had never deceived Chen Hao!
"No, I must return to the family quickly! Chen Zhong, stay with them, however you can, find out that person’s identity, while I go back to tell Father about the failure to acquire the Mysterious Jade Furnace, and let the family prepare to defend!"
Chen Hao reacted quite quickly, treating Ye Luo as a representative of a significant force, naturally assuming they were going to act against the Chen Family, and thus making such a decision, considered rather astute.
