Chapter 1513 - Dao Comprehension Stone
The Azure Profound Gate's sudden intervention struck like a spark in dry tinder, and the atmosphere grew taut.
Liu Wuxie didn't look the least bit surprised by the Azure Profound Gate's move. The Heavenly Dao Society had already crippled the Divine Alchemy Sect, and the Grand Unity Sect could no longer put up a real fight, so only the Azure Profound Gate still had any chance of slowing them now.
He had chosen this moment to bid to confirm whether the Azure Profound Gate and the Grand Unity Sect had formed an alliance. Now that he watched them react, he saw it clearly that the two sects had long been in cahoots.
"1,200,000!" Liu Wuxie raised the price without hesitation, determined to seize the Great Dao of Metal's fragment no matter what it cost.
"1,300,000!" The Azure Profound Gate answered immediately.
There was no way the Azure Profound Gate hadn't heard what had happened at the Nine Dragon Palace. Liu Wuxie had visited the Nine Dragon Palace, and soon after, someone had wiped out every traitor; news like that never stayed buried.
"1,500,000!" Liu Wuxie said coldly. He had no shortage of astral crystals, but he still refused to waste them.
"You can continue to follow, and I can give up in the worst-case scenario. There are plenty of treasures ahead. I'll see how long you can keep up with me," Liu Wuxie said with a chuckle, letting the threat land as he raised the bid.
If the Azure Profound Gate wanted to play, then he would play with them. The auction still held plenty of treasures, and he wanted to see exactly how far they could chase him before their reserves ran dry.
The Azure Profound Gate could only mobilize about five million astral stones at best, which meant they could only keep up for three items or so, and the auction had only just crossed the halfway mark.
Liu Wuxie’s words shut the Azure Profound Gate down. Arrogant as his tone was, the logic was undeniable; no sect present could resist the combined force of the Heavenly Dao Society and the Heavenly Dragon Sect.
They could let them snatch a single item, strip them of every astral crystal, and then make them sit there powerless. At the same time, the Heavenly Dao Society and the Heavenly Dragon Sect dominated the rest of the auction.
