Chapter 166: Continuously Raising the Price
Not far from the man in black, there sat an exceptionally large, portly man who seemed to weigh over three hundred pounds. He was gnawing on a greasy chicken leg in his hand, entirely uninterested in the events on the auction stage.
As for Ye Fei’s right-hand side, an eerie-looking old man sat there with a sinister expression, occasionally letting out strange cackling laughter. He was meticulously tending to his sharp, black nails, exuding an unsettling air of abnormality.
After casually sizing up the few individuals, Ye Fei closed his eyes and began to rest.
The sole reason for his visit was the Snake God Fruit. Ye Fei himself had no interest in the rest of the items on auction—after all, his Qiankun Bag contained ninety percent of the True Essence Sect’s Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, plentiful enough for him to squander endlessly!
However, Ji Yanran was earnestly fixated on the stage, afraid she might miss the Spirit Rhinoceros Wood Tablet!
Before long!
Under the no-nonsense management of the auctioneer on stage, one item after another was brought forward to be auctioned off.
For a while, shouts of bids rose and fell in succession.
Still, none of the items seemed to pique the interest of Ye Fei or the others in the VIP section.
It’s unclear how much time had passed.
Suddenly, the auctioneer announced, "Alright! The prelude to this auction has practically concluded. Up next, we’ll begin the grand highlights of this evening’s sale! Three items in total—please make your preparations!"
