Myth Beyond Heaven

As soon as Yun Lintian spoke out, everyone subconsciously tilted their head to look at his room. No one uttered a word, as they were still in a shocking state.

"That… who is in that room?"

"It's someone from the nine clans?"

"I know, I know. They are from the Fire Cloud Rat Clan."

"The Fire Cloud Rat Clan? Isn't that clan already…."

In the next moment, a noisy discussion broke out among the crowd. Most of them were aware of the Fire Cloud Rat Clan's situation. How could they afford the price?

In the room, Zi Mo and others had incomprehensible expressions. When they returned to their senses, Zi Mo quickly said. "They must try to cheat! How could they have that amount of Profound Stones? Check it! They must be checked!"

His voice was loud. Everyone in the hall could hear it. They also had the same idea and started urging Xiao Yue to check on Yun Lintian's group.

"Dear friends, please wait for a moment. We will send someone to check them now." Xiao Yue smiled charmingly, trying to appease the crowd. At the same time, she sent an eye signal to a young maid standing at the end of the hall.

After getting the signal, the young maid nodded her head and went straight to Yun Lintian's room.

"I'm sorry to disturb you, esteemed guests. However, we need to check your assets according to our regulations. Please cooperate with me." The young maid knocked on the door and said politely.

Yu Jiao'er was angry when she heard this. "How could you be so biased? Why don't you check on everyone earlier?"

The young maid had an embarrassing look on her face and did not answer. More precisely, she didn't know how to answer this.

​ Yun Lintian waved his hand and said. "No need to be angry. It's understandable since I raised the bid too high."

Yu Jiao'er nodded her head and obediently shut her mouth.

Yun Lintian walked to the door and opened it. With a flip of his hand, a storage ring flew out and landed on the maid's palm. "Go ahead and check it."

The young maid smiled apologetically and looked at the content inside. A trace of surprise appeared in the depth of her eyes as she saw a massive mountain of Profound Stones piling up inside.

As her Spiritual Sense swept over, she immediately got the total number. There were at least forty million mid-grade Profound Stones in it. This number could be considered extremely rich, even among the nine clans.

The young maid retracted her Spiritual Sense and returned the ring to Yun Lintian. "Thank you for your cooperation. We have now confirmed your assets. You can freely raise your bid from now on."

Yun Lintian smiled and said. "I can make a request to check on anyone who bid against me, right?"

The young maid's face was cramped. She smiled reluctantly as she answered. "O-of course you can. I'll take my leave first."

Watching the young maid walk away in a hurry, Yun Lintian curled his lips and closed the door.

"She won't get scared by your money, right?" Yu Rongxi teased.

Yun Lintian laughed while sitting back in his seat. "Believe it or not? They don't dare to set a low price again after this."

"Haha. Now, it's not certain who is humiliating who." Jin Mingzhe laughed aloud.

After the young maid returned, she sent a sound transmission to Xiao Yue, and the latter was surprised slightly. Next, Xiao Yue seemed to communicate with someone, and then she looked at the crowd. "This gentleman from room number three has bid ten million. Is there anyone who wants to raise the bid?"

Xiao Yue's words immediately let the crowd understand. Yun Lintian actually had ten million in his hand. Although it was unbelievable, no one dared to further question the Nine Profound Pavilion's authority.

"Impossible!" Zi Mo exclaimed in disbelief. "How could they become so rich?"

On the side, Pei Xiewen had a look of puzzlement. For some reason, he suddenly thought of the person who bid against him back then on the Black Jade Island. However, he quickly denied it. After all, there was no one in the Heaven Profound Realm among Yun Lintian's group.

In his eyes, it was impossible for someone to rise from the fifth level of the Heaven Profound Realm to the Ruler Profound Realm in such a short time.

"It's fine. Perhaps this is already their limit." Pei Xiewen said and took a sip of wine.

Meanwhile, Lang Mian and Lang Xue didn't say anything even though they were curious.

The same reaction happened to Zi Jinghu and Tianqi Junlai as well. They were curious about the origin of the wealth in Yun Lintian's hand, and they also thought this should be Yun Lintian's limit. Perhaps he desperately wanted to get the Fire Cloud Rat Clan's treasure, Heavenly Vermilion Fruit, back and emptied his wallet in one go.

Thinking of this, Zi Jinghu signaled his subordinate, and the latter quickly said aloud. "Twelve million!"

Xiao Yue glanced at Zi Jinghu's room and smiled charmingly. She understood what Zi Jinghu had tried to do.

"Twelve million. Do you want to continue?" Xiao Yue turned in Yun Lintian's direction.

"Twenty million." Yun Lintian responded immediately.

"Twenty-five million." Zi Jinghu's subordinate added.

"Thirty million." Yun Lintian calmly raised.

"His limit is forty million… Raise it again." Zi Jinghu said, and his subordinate quickly complied.

"Thirty-five million."

A look of interest appeared on Xiao Yue's face as she turned toward Yun Lintian's room. However, she suddenly had a bad premonition. Yun Lintian didn't say anything this time. Could it be he was giving up now?

Zi Jinghu's eyes narrowed slightly. He naturally could afford to spend thirty-five million, but these Heavenly Vermilion Fruits were useless to him. His goal was obviously emptying Yun Lintian's wallet.

"Forty million." While everyone was thinking, Yun Lintian's voice resounded, making Zi Jinghu and others smile.

"Forty million. Does anyone want to add more?" Xiao Yue said with great enthusiasm as she was relieved in her heart.
