Chapter 284: Explosion
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
âYinâer, I didnât expect someone would spend so much money on a sacred-grade profound artifact. How about we give up on this golden needle, and Grandpa will get you something else?â The old man said somewhat reluctantly.
âI only want this one!â The young girl pouted, looking unhappy.
âBut the golden needle has already been auctioned off.â
âGrandpa, please think of a way! Youâll definitely have a solution.â The girl shook the old manâs arm while acting cute.
The old man was helpless and turned to the young man beside him, instructing, âGo and inquire with the Shadow Tower, see if itâs possible to buy the golden needle.â
After a while, Gu Qingluanâs nameplate flashed.
She infused her consciousness into it, and a message appeared.
The Shadow Tower inquired if she was willing to sell the golden needle at a high price.
Without hesitation, Gu Qingluan rejected the offer.
Xuanling Stones could be earned again, but there was only one Primordial Gold Needle in the world, and she wouldnât let anyone else have it no matter what.
Shortly after, the old man received news.
Learning that their offer was rejected, the girl felt extremely disheartened, turning her head away in frustration.
Coincidentally, she turned toward Gu Qingluanâs direction and caught sight of Gu Qingluan, who was wearing a mask.
However, she only gave a casual glance and didnât pay it much mind, muttering quietly, âDonât let me find out who took away the golden needle, or 1â11 definitely give them a beating!â
Gu Qingluan curved her lips.
This little girl was quite young but had a dominant personality.
Since when did the golden needle become hers?
Two more rounds passed, and the auction was coming to an end, reaching its climax.
As expected, just as He Lianjun had described, a Dimensional Barrier Key appeared at the auction.
The entire audience was shocked, and Gu Qingluan could clearly sense the heightened atmosphere around her.
Including the old man who had come with his granddaughter not far away, everyoneâs attention was focused on the platform.
The auctioneerâs voice couldnât hide his excitement, âThis final item is the Boundary Wall Key! I believe many of you here are familiar with its purpose, but there may be a few esteemed guests who are still unaware. Therefore, allow me to introduce it properlyâŠâ
His description was similar to what He Lianjun had mentioned.
After he finished, the atmosphere in the hall became even more fervent.
âNow, esteemed guests, you can start engraving your desired prices on your nameplates. Thereâs no starting bid for the key, and in the end, the decision will be in the hands of the keyâs owner. They will choose their preferred currency from among all of you.â
Gu Qingluan didnât have a Sacred Spirit Flower on her, and she didnât have the time to find one now.
She had a feeling she could handle the toxic mist in the Dimensional Barrier Space, even though she hadnât been inside. She engraved âthe Island of No Return Sacred Grade Detox Pillâ into her nameplate.
If it caught someoneâs eye, that was great; if not, she wouldnât be too disappointed.
Hou Lianjun looked around with curiosity in his eyes. âI really want to see what everyone will offer as their currency. With so many big shots here, the competition must be extremely fierce. Itâs a pity itâs a blind bid, so we wonât be able to witness the excitement firsthand.â
Gu Qingluan nodded in agreement.
Indeed, a blind bid lacked the visual thrill.
However, for those who desired the treasure, the lack of transparency in bidding didnât diminish the excitement.
When making their offers, they had no idea about their competitorsâ perceived values, which could lead to two scenarios. One possibility was bidding too low and losing out on the treasure, while the other was overbidding significantly compared to other competitors, becoming the unwitting victim of their own desire.
The Sacred Grade Detox Pill from the Island of No Return had an exceptional effect. Gu Qingluan had never auctioned it before, only offering up to the Ninth-Grade Detox Pill, which already commanded a price of a hundred Xuanling Crystal Hearts.
The price of a Sacred Grade Detox Pill would be considerably higher.
Perhaps others might hesitate due to its high cost, but for Gu Qingluan, it was a matter of spending a few hours to refine.
She offered a generous reward, but she wondered if it would align with the preferences of the Keyâs owner.
Boom!
Suddenly, a loud noise reverberated from the platform.
Centered on the platform, a dazzling white light radiated in all directions..
