Chen Xiaobei was the first to bid, and following the not-less-than-10 million rule, he bid exactly 110 million!

Then, Qin Yitian stepped in and told everyone to stop bidding. As a result, no one bid higher than Chen Xiaobei.

Xuankong Zhenren himself concluded the transaction, and the Black Water Stone practically fell into Chen Xiaobei’s hands!

“My… God… Am I dreaming?” Su Xiaoman could not believe what had just happened.

Half a minute ago, she was ready to throw in a towel. She did not think that Chen Xiaobei would win the bid for the Black Water Stone.

Considering the bleakness of the situation, Su Xiaoman never expected that things would take such an abrupt 180-degree turn!

“That’s not possible… it’s impossible… I must be hallucinating…” Du Tiannan’s finger was still pointing at Chen Xiaobei.

A while ago, he had claimed that Silver-Haired Gui Sha, Nine-Lives Dhutanga and Shitai White Bone were some of the richest evil persons in this Jianghu! He also said that Chen Xiaobei was not a nobody when compared to them.

Against the odds, however, the three bosses had just given way to Chen Xiaobei. This served as a harsh, invisible slap across Du Tiannan’s face.

“Hey! Idiot! Put your middle finger away!” Zhu Youfu grabbed Du Tiannan’s finger. “If you want to die, don’t drag me down with you!”

Du Tiannan held his breath nervously.

Yun Jiqiao’s face was red as a tomato, and she was shaking.

“That guy… Who the hell is he…” Yun Ziqiao’s muttered through quivering lips. “Qing Yitian actually used her family name to give him extra support… and Xuankong Zhenren closed the bid… He bought an item worth 5 billion for 100 million… now that’s unbelievable…”

“Stupid woman!” Jiang Songtao scolded. “You’re still hung up on lambasting that guy? Do you want to die?”

“Songtao gege, why are you suddenly so fierce…” Yun Ziqiao cooed.

“Go away! Don’t call me gege! We’re not that close!” Jiang Songtao said. “Even an idiot knows that man is a powerful and influential individual! If you want to continue to ridicule him, that’s your problem! Don’t involve me!”

“I…” Yun Ziqiao inhaled nervously. Her face was as pale as a sheet. “That… He won’t kill me, right… I won’t do it again… I won’t…”

All the wealthy VIPs started looking up to Chen Xiaobei with respect and admiration. They were all secretly trying to guess who this Chen Xiaobei actually was!

Once again, Chen Xiaobei ignored them. He paid for the Black Water Stone and completed the transaction!

Now, there was only one last material he needed before he could upgrade his Netherspirit Battlescouter.

Once he had done that, he could choose his Heavenly Path Reward, then use the Ambergris to increase his cultivation.

“Excuse me, sir!” Qin Yitian walked up to Chen Xiaobei and said, “Now that the auction is over, can we chat in private?”

“That would be an honor!” Chen Xiaobei nodded. He turned to his companion and said, “Xiaoman, go find Liu Si. I will contact you later!”

“Alright.” Su Xiaoman pouted as she watched Chen Xiaobei leave with Qin Yitian.

…

In the private VIP cave.

Qin Yitian and Chen Xiaobei sat opposed to each other, face to face.

“You really are an extaordinary person!” Qin Yitian said. “Most people wouldn’t even dare look me in the eye!”

“Ms. Qin, your eyes are something out of this world!” Chen Xiaobei replied. “Most people see the austere exterior and shrink back, but I see a beautiful soul through your beautiful eyes! I just couldn’t stop myself from looking at you!”

Qin Yitian was surprised by his answer but she did not show it. “To tell you the truth, I don’t like slippery-tongued and smooth-talking people!”

Chen Xiaobei said, “I was just stating a fact. If you think I’m trying to hit on you, then pretend I said nothing!”

Qin Yitian did not know how to answer him so she changed the topic. “Why are you not surprised at all that I helped you? Did you expect it to happen?”

Chen Xiaobei shrugged. “It was outside of my expectation but it was within my reasoning!”

“Outside expectations? Within reasoning?” Qin Yitian’s eyes flickered. “Let me guess! You used your exceptional medical skills to hook Liu Si, then cause trouble to draw attention so that Xuankong Zhenren will notice you. You wagered on him helping you because of your medical skills! That was your plan, right?”

Chen Xiaobei was impressed. “Ms. Qin! It’s more difficult for smart women to get married! Your guess is accurate to the T. I’m beginning to feel a little unsafe! Nothing can escape you!”

Qin Yitian ignored his compliment and continued, “You said out of expectation because Xuankong Zhenren did not notice you for your medical skills! But it was within your reasoning because I did!”

Chen Xiaobei nodded. “Ms. Qin’s eyes are great at noticing details like that! I’m impressed!”

Qin Yitian answered, “Since you’ve accepted my help, we’re considered friends, right?”

Chen Xiaobei nodded. “Of course! Here’s my phone number! You can contact me anytime if you need anything! Also, it’s not limited to just medical help. I’m willing to help with any other matters!”

Qin Yitian looked pleased. “With your promise, I’m not worried anymore! Oh, right! I still haven’t gotten to know your name!”

“I am Chen Zhufeng!”

“Zhufeng…” Qin Yitian echoed. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave now. I will be staying in Black Tortoise for some time. I might need you to come back to Vermillion Phoenix with me later!”

“I have one question!” Chen Xiaobei took out his list. “Can you please take a look at the things on this list and see if there’s any way of acquiring them?”

Qin Yitian read the list, and her forehead creased. “These are all Three-star Earth-God Items. They are about as rare as the Black Water Stone!”

“So, you don’t have any leads…” Chen Xiaobei said. “Never mind, I was asking, just in case. I wasn’t really hoping for much!”

Xuankong Zhenren entered the cave, and asked, “Can I take a look at the list?”

“Of course!” Chen Xiaobei nodded. “If you can help me, I will make sure to remember your kindness!”

Xuankong Zhenren skimmed the list and said, “I don’t know where to get these two Earth-God medicines, but I do know where to get the last Earth-God material on the list!”

“If you would be so kind as to enlighten me!” Chen Xiaobei beamed eagerly.
