Chapter 3877: My Apology (Revised)
tragic experiences of Xiaohong and the other five beasts firsthand, its ferocity had long been worn down to nothing.Now, trembling and shaky, she was pushed into the hut by Xiaohong. Standing before J...Jiang Yun's face was devoid of any expression. Even when he looked at Emperor Gu, his gaze remained calm and unruffled.
But everyone, including Emperor Yu himself, knew in their hearts that this was a provocation from Jiang Yun against Emperor Yu! Or perhaps, this was Jiang Yun's retaliation for Emperor Yu's just-past suppression of him! Up to this point, even a fool could see that the one who constantly kept raising the price of the blood-sealed stone was none other than Emperor Yu.
As for why Emperor Hu could do this, everyone was very clear.
At the beginning, Emperor Gu should have just wanted to prevent this blood-sealed stone from being easily bought by Jiang Yun. He hoped to raise the price secretly so that Jiang Yun would pay as many emperor origin stones as possible.
Now, under Huangfu Yu's "efforts" and Jiang Yun's own insistence, the price of this blood seal stone has indeed reached an astonishing figure.
In principle, Huangfu Yi's purpose has been achieved, and it is time to call it quits.
Nobody could have expected that, at this very moment, a vision would appear within the Blood Sealing Stone! This further proves that Jiang Yun chose this Blood Sealing Stone because he had already seen that there was something good inside it.
And the value of this good thing, at the very least, is over 12 million Emperor Source Stones, and even more.
Otherwise, how could Jiang Yun have repeatedly raised his quoted price without hesitation
Therefore, for Huangfu Yu, it was as if he had dug a pit just for Jiang Yun to fall into.
Now he finds himself trapped, caught in a predicament with no easy way out.
Should I just give up and let Jiang Yun buy this Blood Sealing Stone for 12 million, or should I continue competing with him to keep it
Huangfu Yu's eyes were cold and piercing as he stared at Jiang Yun. He truly wished he could strike Jiang Yun down with a single palm.
Now he's a little reluctant to let him go.
Although he made 12 million from Ginger Cloud, if there were really good things in the Blood Seal Stone, then Ginger Cloud wouldn't lose money, but would instead make a big profit.
More importantly, Huangfu Yu himself was deeply interested in what was contained within the Blood Sealing Stone.
Because the value can exceed tens of millions, at the very least it has the Emperor's Path and the Imperial Seal.
Even, there might be a complete Imperial Artifact hidden inside! After all, this Blood Sealing Stone is quite large; it's not impossible for it to contain a complete Imperial Artifact.
But after all, these are just speculations, both mine and Jiang Yun's.
Before the bloodstone was opened, no one knew what was inside.
If he continues to fight with Ginger Cloud, the thing in the Blood Sealing Stone won't even be worth over ten million Imperial Source Stones in the end. In that case, Emperor Hu would essentially be at a loss.
Gambling on jade, gambling on jade! Huangfu Yu had never imagined that, with his status and abilities, he would one day become a gambler! Should he gamble or not
Just when Huangfu Yu was still unable to make a decision, Jiang Yun lightly uttered five words from his mouth: "Time is running out!"
Huangfu Yi gritted his teeth, and the cultivator he had controlled spoke again: "13 million!"
Although everyone knew he was the one bidding, Huangfu Yi was too embarrassed to tear off his last shred of dignity.
As Emperor Gu Yi raised the price again, a sudden burst of light appeared in Jiang Yun's eyes. He shifted his gaze from Emperor Gu Yi and looked towards the blood-sealed stone, which was trembling more and more intensely.
Even Ginger Yun seemed a little hesitant at this moment, as if she were feeling the weight of everyone's gaze.
However, Jiang Yun hesitated for only a very short time.
Just two breaths later, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Huangfu Yu again, saying word by word: "Fifteen million!"
Even Emperor Fu, upon hearing Jiang Yun's quote, couldn't help but secretly gasp and turn his gaze to the Blood Seal Stone.
Because the bloodstone's vibrations were increasingly intense, coupled with its rapidly soaring price, Shang Zhenyu's stone-cutting speed had slowed considerably compared to before.
If this blood sealing stone were to be destroyed in her hands, the consequences would be something she wouldn't want to bear.
And then she heard Huangfu Yu's voice, a hint of impatience in his transmission: "Can you tell me now what is inside"
To be honest, the price Jiang Yun quoted left Huangpu Yu slightly out of control, becoming agitated.
"No!"
Shang Zhenyu replied with a wry smile: "But the feeling of vibration is extremely strong."
"I think, it could be a divine artifact. Perhaps, if I cut it some more, the power of the divine artifact will appear."
In fact, not just Shang Zhenyu, most of the people present at this moment felt that the blood-sealed stone was very likely to be a complete imperial artifact.
Of course, no matter how many people think so, before the Bloodstone is opened, it's still just speculation.
Jiang Yun suddenly spoke again in a low voice, counting down: "Three, two, ..." Hearing Jiang Yun's voice, Huangpu Yu was too lazy to pretend anymore. He looked at Jiang Yun with sinister eyes and said coldly, "Sixteen million!"
Jiang Yun sighed and shook his head, saying, "Huangfu the shopkeeper is truly generous!"
"Well, I give up on this blood-sealed stone!"
Jiang Yun's words once again stunned everyone! Gao Song and Gu Linxu suddenly turned their heads to look at Jiang Yun, dumbfounded.
Among the crowd, even the young ones were frowning and looking at Jiang Yun with a helpless expression on his face. They muttered to themselves: "What is this kid doing"
"How do I feel, he seems to be playing with Huangfu Yu"
Especially Emperor Hu, his eyes widened in surprise, and a look of disbelief appeared on his face as he stared at Jiang Yun and said, "You, gave up"
Apparently, even he didn't dare to believe his ears! No one had expected that at this point, Jiang Yun would actually give up.
As is well known, Ginger Cloud possesses at least thirty million Emperor Source Stones and has the full capital to continue bidding.
And if the Blood Sealing Stone truly was a complete Emperor Artifact, then it would be priceless! He genuinely had no reason to give it up.
Jiang Yun shrugged and said, "I see that the shopkeeper Huangfu is also determined to get this Blood Sealing Stone."
If I keep bidding, Mr. Huangfu will still give up, and instead, only raise the price of this blood-sealed stone higher and higher. In the end, it will still belong to Mr. Huangfu.
"So, I can only give up, and it's also an expression of my apology for my disrespectful behavior just now!"
After all, Huangfu is the shopkeeper of Shitaixuan, the organizer of this treasure appraisal competition, and the son of the city lord of Sijinzhen. I am just a cultivator who has only had a bit of luck. I really can't continue to compete with Huangfu any further.
Jiang Yun's string of words, entering Huangfu Yu's ears, made him feel particularly harsh. He knew in his heart that this was Jiang Yun responding to his sarcasm just now.
I can't say anything yet! As for others, some frown, some look confused.
Although Ginger Cloud's words made sense, some people still didn't believe them. They thought Ginger Cloud had given up bidding on the Blood Sealing Stone out of fear of Emperor Huofeng's status or worried about his revenge.
Finally, Huangfu Yu could only coldly snort and say, "You're quite sensible!"
"Now, are there any others willing to bid"
Who else dares to bid Everyone is just watching now, wanting to see what's inside this $16 million Blood Sealing Stone.
Sheng Zhenyu, however, stopped his chisel and looked at Huangfu Yidao: "Shopkeeper, do you want to continue cutting"
Since this blood-sealed stone now belongs to Huangfu Yu, if there is truly a complete imperial artifact inside, it's best not to open it in front of so many people.
Huangpu Yu could be taken back completely, making a fortune in silence.
However, Huangfu Yu was not a timid person at all. He sneered coldly and said, "Why wouldn't we cut it open Let everyone see what good things are inside!"
"Yes!"
Shang Zhenyu replied with a sound, and the stone cutting knife in his hand started to turn again.
However, just as she swung her sword to cut into the Blood Sealing Stone, a deafening roar suddenly erupted. The Blood Sealing Stone exploded with a blinding flash! Amidst the explosion, someone faintly heard Jiang Yun seemingly mutter, "Alas, what a pity!"alm. When I return, I will go seek him out myself!"Although she knew this, Ginger Cloud couldn't possibly change course and return to the Dao Domain now."Wait a moment, fellow cultivator!"Seeing Jian...
