Chapter 114 - And Again
"This number 201 has too much money. Where does he get those?" Someone from the audience said. Even though they were shocked by the current happenings, they still have their composures and observe everything silently. But what surprised them the most was this mysterious number 201 forked out a terrifying amount of money that none of them, even the first-rate sects in the VIP rooms, have. In fact, most of them could only bring a money with a limit of two million purple stones, while the first-rate sects could bring a bit more than two million. Just like Larl, who brought more than 2 million and a hundred thousand purple stones.
Of course, as the first-rate sects, this kind of money would also feel a sting for them... after all, this was a huge money. But if they could get a terrifying item just by forking out millions of purple stones, what of it, right?
"The item Jin Rou auctioned... cost more than two million diamonds!" Lin Fan gasped. No, everyone, even Jin Rou gasped, almost could not contain their excitements. They never thought that they would gain an astronomical amount just because of the pill! They looked at Jin Rou with great reverence this time. Although he claimed that he was not the one who concocted the pill, for some unknown reason, they were still feeling reverence to this young man.
In fact, even Lin Fan, was already on the verge of submitting himself to Jin Rou, which he found a bit displeasing.
Inside of one of the VIP rooms, the young noble was grinding his teeth, veins bulging in his head as if those were about to explode, revealing a terrifying killing intent, stumped his foot. The floor created a huge crack which taken aback the two bodyguards of the young noble. The people outside also heard this as they turned back what happened.
"Jum, find out who is that bastard 201 no matter what it takes! I want him dead!" Larl ordered one of his bodyguards. He was really infuriated this time. Most of the time, he was always cool and composed, but this was the first time he lost his nerve and snapped. In his fifteen years of existence, never did he experience any humiliation like this. That\'s right, for him this was a humiliation that should be erased. As someone as great as him, he was never willing to accept this! Until he kill the mysterious number 201, he will not be satisfied.
The bodyguard named Jum, who was full of muscles, said, "As you wish. I will not let that bastard who infuriated young noble to live any longer."
"No, I will personally kill that bastard myself. But before that, I will slowly torture him that he will beg to die already." Larl revealed a sinister smile as if he was already imagining what will happen.

"Alright, let\'s go down to the last item!" Manager Mao Ren declared. Seeing the excited crowd, anticipating for the next item, he clapped his hands and a small bottle with a red-glowing pill inside appeared again.
There were no words to tell... as everyone fixed their gazes to the pill inside. Everyone observed it for a while and suddenly someone exclaimed in an utter amazement, "A Red-Blood Longevity Pill with a 100% effectiveness rate!!!"
This was the exclamation of a revered master alchemist. So everyone believed him, though inconceivable for a minute. They looked instinctively at the manager who was beaming with smile. They wanted to ask who was the revered and hidden master alchemist who could concoct such pills!
Suddenly, someone from the second-rate sect asked the manager, "Manager Mao Ren, do the same person created these two pills?"
Everyone thought the same. The sudden appearance of the two hundred percent pill gave them a shock. Although they had heard of such pills guaranteeing a hundred percent effectiveness rate, it was still a mere legend or probably a rumor. There was no such master alchemist here in this world that could concoct such pills with effectiveness rate. So everyone was thinking who was this legendary person who could concoct pills with a hundred percent effectiveness rate?
They thought of every master alchemists that held 6-8-stars that could possibly concoct this. But the more they think of it, the more it was not possible. Unless one of them purposely hide their true strength. In fact, even Larl, was thinking the same.
"About this..." Manager Mao smiled wryly and answered, "The client did not want to reveal his great self... so I apologize."
Although Jin Rou did not say anything like that to him, he still assumed that the other party might not want his identity to be revealed. After all, these pills have incited the greed of these people. To top it all, he wanted to forge a relationship with Jin Rou, hoping that he could contact the master alchemist who gave the pills to him and graced the auction house with his appearance. If he could rope such master alchemist, who was probably a 9-star master alchemist, wouldn\'t the auction house soar? In fact, even his position had a great chance to be promoted.
The crowd revealed a sigh of disappointment. But those from the VIP rooms were not. They were planning to use all their resources just to find this legendary master alchemist. Of course, they still needed to seek approval of their superiors before doing so.
"No need to be that disappointed. Everyone, a longevity pill is in front of you that will give you a hundred years of extension to life!" Mao Ren smiled, "Now, let\'s start the bidding! No starting bid. Just roll it!"
The crowd immediately became spirited!
Everyone bidded crazily that even those from the first-rate sects joined in. Several minutes past, the bid rose from 100,000 purple stones to exactly 2 million purple stones, again! As of this time, the first-rate sects battled it out, increasing the amount by ten thousand every bid.
"2,130,000! No one\'s gonna take it from me. Fight me!" Larl laughed heartily. Although he lost to the mysterious bastard, in the end, he still gained something worth being happy for. After all, his grandfather needed this type of pill badly. If he was to give this to him, wouldn\'t his position in the sect will achieve promotion? Maybe his grandfather would also let him marry that woman!
The first-rate sects had their veins bulging. Although they wanted to bid more, they could not take more than what they had, unless they wanted to humiliate themselves. Even Old XIu was grinding his teeth. He badly needed this type of pill, since he was also approaching his death with his counted years. But this brat, who has still full of vitality, shamelessly bid for something he did not need. This young noble was really getting into their nerves and promised that if ever had the chance that the Soaring Phoenix, the sect he belonged was to fall, they will take their revenge!
Larl did not in the least care about them. He happily said, "Hahahaha! Seriously, you old—"
And again, he was interrupted by a familiar voice, bidding, "2,140,000 purple stones."
