Broken sword!
There was a broken sword on the tray!
The sword body is dark gold in color, a bit rustic and dull, and not very conspicuous.
Xiao Chen stared at the broken sword. Is it the Xuanyuan Sword?
He wasn't too sure. After all, there was a distance between them, and swords were all pretty much the same...
As for the dark gold color, it doesn't mean anything.
There are various colors of sword blades.
Even green ones are available.
"No, there is no hilt... If it is really the Xuanyuan Sword, then it was broken into three pieces?"
Xiao Chen's thoughts raced, and he really wanted to go down and get it to take a closer look.
"Brother Chen?"
Xiao Chen's reaction shocked Wang Pingbei and others.
They looked at Xiao Chen, then at the broken sword in the tray. Could it be that he knew it?
Otherwise, why such a big reaction?
"Um?"
Hearing Wang Pingbei's voice, Xiao Chen came to his senses, slowly stepped back and sat down.
What a huge reaction!
Fortunately, they were on the second floor, and everyone's attention was on the broken sword, so no one noticed him.
"This broken sword was also sent by someone for auction... As for its origin, the person who sent it didn't know either."
The old man introduced.
"After our verification, this truncated sword is a divine weapon. It is extremely hard... and it is far superior to ordinary divine weapons."
"Divine weapon?"
Hearing this, many people showed some interest.
But looking at the broken sword, some people shook their heads.
Even if it is a divine weapon, if it is broken and only this piece is left, its value will be greatly reduced.
What’s the use of this part?
The most we can do is to find a way to forge it into a dagger.
"This broken sword..."
Gongsun Liang looked at the broken sword and frowned slightly. Why did it look familiar?
Where have you seen me?
He thought about it over and over again, but couldn't remember.
"Come, let everyone see how hard it is."
The old man said this and asked someone to bring a knife.
He picked up the knife and chopped it hard on the broken sword.
Click.
The knife is broken.
"I think if we take this broken sword back and find a forging master to modify it, it will still be a magical weapon."
The old man laughed.
"hehe."
Many people shook their heads. As an auctioneer, he could say that a chamber pot was a good thing.
After some modifications, it is still a magical weapon?
Not to mention that there are very few casting masters, even if you can really hire one, it will definitely cost a lot.
Moreover, this broken sword is very hard. How easy is it to modify it?
Therefore, the value of this thing is not that great.
"Starting price: one hundred spirit stones."
The old man took everyone's reactions into consideration and spoke slowly.
"Each increase in price must not be less than ten spirit stones."
"One hundred and one."
Someone spoke up.
"What do you want with a broken sword?"
The person next to him asked curiously.
"Haha, change it into a dagger for my son to defend himself."
The speaker was a middle-aged man with an extraordinary temperament, smiling.
"One hundred and two."
"One hundred and three."
“…”
Soon, the price of the broken sword reached two hundred.
On the second floor, Xiao Chen did not bid, he was waiting.
He placed his right hand on the armrest of the chair and applied a little force... If he hadn't been in control, the armrest would have probably exploded.
Although he couldn't be sure that this was part of the Xuanyuan Sword, but... there was a 70% to 80% chance!
Wang Pingbei and others looked at Xiao Chen. Why didn’t he make an offer?
Wasn’t his reaction just now very big?
After the price reached two hundred, the scene became much quieter and no one made any more offers.
Gongsun Liang never made an offer. Although he felt that the person looked familiar, he didn't think much about it.
He had no interest in this broken sword.
"Beizi, give me your price."
Xiao Chen thought about it and said to Wang Pingbei.
"Ah? How much?"
Wang Pingbei was stunned and asked.
"Just add anything you want. I want this broken sword."
Xiao Chen said slowly.
"Understood."
Wang Pingbei's heart moved. Xiao Chen must know this broken sword, otherwise this would not be possible.
He stood up and shouted "two hundred and one".
Hearing the number "two hundred and one", many people looked up towards the private room on the second floor.
Gongsun Liang narrowed his eyes. Are they interested?
He hesitated for a moment, but decided to raise the price.
Even though I got cheated just now, I can’t be cheated every time, right?
"Two hundred and two!"
Gongsun Liang had a flash of thought and shouted.
Xiao Chen stood up. The reason why he didn't make the offer himself was because he was afraid that Gongsun Liang would interfere.
Unexpectedly, this guy still got involved.
"Two hundred and three."
Xiao Chen spoke lightly.
"Two hundred and fifty!"
Gongsun Liang was delighted when he saw Xiao Chen getting up. Was it him who took a fancy to the broken sword?
“…”
Xiao Chen stopped talking.
He was wondering whether to continue raising the price.
Or, give it to Gongsun Liang.
Anyway, he would capture Gongsun Liang after the auction was over... and then he would take the broken sword back.
But thinking about it again, he felt it was not safe.
If Gongsun Zhen sees the broken sword, it would not be easy to get it back.
Gongsun Liang was panicked when he saw Xiao Chen was silent. No way? Was he fooled again? Did he not want this guy anymore?
He doesn't want this broken sword at all!
Even if the Gongsun family has a lot of spirit stones, they wouldn't spend more than 200 to buy such a broken thing.
"Young friend Gongsun has offered 250 yuan. Is there anyone who wants to raise the price? 250 yuan per time..."
The old man at the auction table was very satisfied with the price the broken sword was sold at.
“…”
Gongsun Liang's face twitched. Damn it, Xiao Chen really won't raise the price?
He regretted getting involved!
"hehe."
Suddenly, Xiao Chen smiled, and with his right hand resting on the railing, he tapped the beat lightly.
“…”
Gongsun Liang gritted his teeth. Xiao Chen didn't look like he was going to bid against him.
"Two hundred and fifty times..."
"About two hundred and sixty."
Xiao Chen said with a smile and slowly sat back.
Attack the heart first!
He just wanted Gongsun Liang to think that this broken sword was not something he absolutely had to have.
If you bid again, it'll be yours!
Hearing Xiao Chen's bid again, Gongsun Liang breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it didn't fall into his hands.
He watched Xiao Chen go back and sit down, hesitated for a moment, and did not dare to raise the price again.
He was afraid that he would get out of control.
"Two hundred and sixty once, two hundred and sixty twice..."
The old man at the auction table glanced at Gongsun Liang, and seeing that he didn't say anything, he raised his voice.
Up to now, no one has bid for this broken sword.
"three hundred!"
Just as Xiao Chen breathed a sigh of relief and felt that he had put the broken sword into his pocket, a voice rang out.
"three hundred?"
Everyone was surprised. How come another person suddenly appeared?
Xiao Chen, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly felt his heart skip a beat and his eyes swept downstairs like lightning.
Who is it?
Not Gongsun Liang!
Soon, his eyes fell on a man who looked to be in his fifties.
As for the strength, it may be that his aura is hidden, so it cannot be seen.
"Haha, another friend has offered three hundred."
The old man at the auction table smiled and looked towards the second floor.
Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows. Should he continue to raise the price?
As soon as this thought flashed through his mind, he immediately made the decision that he must increase the price.
This broken sword must be taken down at all costs.
If it wasn't the Xuan-Yuan Sword, it would just be a loss of spirit stones.
But if so, and he missed it, then... it would definitely be a big loss!
"Three hundred and one."
After the thought flashed through his mind, Xiao Chen made an offer.
"Um?"
Gongsun Liang frowned. Xiao Chen didn't give up?
Could it be that I was wrong?
He wants this broken sword?
Do you want to get involved again?
But after thinking about it again, he gave up. It would be a pain in the ass if Xiao Chen didn't want it anymore.
"Four hundred."
The man turned around, glanced at Xiao Chen, and raised his hand again.
"Four hundred spirit stones?"
“If you don’t come to the auction, you don’t know how poor you are.”
"Yes, a broken sword costs 400 spirit stones..."
"Could it be that I am mistaken? Is this broken sword a treasure?"
Everyone was surprised and started talking in low voices.
Xiao Chen's heart sank slightly. Was the other party also determined to get the Broken Sword?
Or did the other party recognize the broken sword?
If it's the latter, then it's a bit troublesome.
"five hundred."
Xiao Chen stood up again, walked to the railing, and said slowly.
He decided to give this man a try.
"Six hundred!"
The man immediately raised the price.
"Seven hundred."
Xiao Chen really wanted to light a cigarette, but he held back.
The man raised his head and looked at Xiao Chen without saying anything.
When their eyes met, Xiao Chen suppressed his thoughts and smiled.
He couldn't see through this man's thoughts, so...he couldn't let this man see through him.
"Eight hundred."
The man retracted his gaze and said.
As he made another offer, the discussion at the scene became louder.
At the same time, more and more people have regained interest in the Broken Sword.
Can a broken sword of an unknown origin be worth eight hundred spirit stones?
How is that possible!
Could it be that we have all made a mistake?
This broken sword is of great value?
Even the old man on the auction table frowned slightly and glanced at the broken sword on the tray.
Has a great origin?
If it really has a great origin, then it would be a wrong decision to auction it in the morning.
In the afternoon, when those big guys arrive, the auction will definitely be sold at a sky-high price!
"Nine hundred."
Just when everyone was wondering, Xiao Chen made another bid.
He had already decided that this was his last bid.
If the other party offers again, he will not take it.
It’s not that I feel sorry for the spirit stones, but... something is wrong!
The other party is very likely to know the origin of the broken sword!
If they know, they generally won't give up, and even thousands of spirit stones are possible.
Furthermore…if the other party fails and the news is leaked, I will definitely be caught in a whirlpool.
The Xuan-Yuan Sword...even if it's just a piece of it, it's enough to drive the strong ones in Tianwai Tian crazy!
It's true that he wants to become famous, but he doesn't want to be targeted by too many powerful people...the two are not the same thing.
He had just arrived in Tianwaitian and didn't want to die here.
The man raised his head again, looked at Xiao Chen, shook his head slightly, and did not make another bid.
"Nine hundred and one times."
"Nine hundred and two times."
"Nine hundred and three times, deal."
The old man hammered.
"call……"
Xiao Chen let out a breath and finally got it done.
Am I overthinking it?
The other party doesn’t know, this is the Xuanyuan Sword?
If I knew, I wouldn't give up easily.
Or... just come up with other ideas.
For example, wait for him to take it, and then try to snatch it afterwards?
It's not impossible.
"If he steals it, I'm not afraid, but I'm afraid he'll know my origins..."
Xiao Chen muttered to himself, and glanced at the man again, only to find that he was no longer looking over here.
"Congratulations, Brother Chen."
"Congratulations, Brother Chen."
Zhao Ritian, Zhao Yuanji and others all expressed their congratulations.
They could see that Xiao Chen was determined to get the broken sword.
Now that we have obtained it, we have finally achieved what we wanted.
"hehe."
Xiao Chen smiled and sat down again.
He was very excited and wanted to go down immediately, pick up the broken sword, and study it carefully to see if it was the Xuan-Yuan Sword.
