Chapter 150 - Unforeseen Circumstances (II)
The voice that reminded the audience earlier was probably from someone who knew that he did not have the ability to fight for it, but was unwilling to let others buy it easily.
Wan Ya suddenly asked, “Dad, didn’t you say before that becoming a bloodline warrior would greatly increase the chances of breaking through to the warrior realm?”
The appearance of the porcelain bowl made Wan Ya suddenly realize that there was still a way out. She could break through to the warrior realm and become the pillar of the Wan clan.
Wan Rong didn’t mind letting Chen Yiming know. He lowered his voice and said, “It’s not that simple. The porcelain bowl isn’t an all-purpose bowl. There’s a high chance that it can only purify the blood essence of one type of mutant beast.
If one wants to break through to the warrior realm by becoming a bloodline warrior, this involves the problem of the compatibility of the cultivation technique. However, it is very unlikely for the sword technique that you are cultivating to be compatible with it.
So don’t let your imagination run wild, unless you can get detailed information about the porcelain bowl from Mo Yanfei.”
“Got it.”
Wan Ya pouted. The glimmer of hope that had just been ignited was instantly extinguished.
The reason why Mo Yanfei could openly move about in Cloud Port City was all because of the mysterious masked man.
After the Yue clan settled the matter, the martial arts world in East Lake City had guessed that Ren Pingsheng, who was at the second stage of the warrior realm, might have been defeated that night.
Chen Yiming frowned.
He recalled that when the Yue clan was being liquidated, he was on his way to Luoxi City. Naturally, Yue Yangpeng and Yue Jingtian were sentenced to death without any hesitation.
At this moment, Ren Pingsheng threw out the porcelain bowl as bait for luring out the masked man.
If the masked man did not react, Mo Yanfei would immediately be thrown into jail.
It was impossible for Mo Yanfei not to know this. Her motive for telling him about the porcelain bowl last night was probably because she wanted Chen Yiming to snatch it as the masked man.
This way, she would be able to intimidate Ren Pingsheng and also keep the porcelain bowl. It would be killing two birds with one stone.
When the price increase reached three billion, it started to decrease. However, something unexpected happened.
“10 billion!”
A price that exceeded what the martial arts factions in East Lake City could afford was blurted out by a young man.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone turned to look at the young man.
One side of his chest and shoulder were bandaged. After bidding 10 billion yuan, he took out his phone and started making a call.
“It’s the person I accidentally injured,” Chen Yiming said in a low voice.
When Wan Rong heard this, he gave Wan Ya a meaningful look. Then, he instantly turned to look at the young man.
Wan Ya’s heart tightened. She instantly understood that their secret relationship had not been hidden from Wan Rong.
A feeling of despair rose in her heart. She understood that although her father did not interfere in her private life, she probably could not make the decision regarding her arranged marriage.
At this moment, discussions about the young man started up.
“It’s Gu Chen from the Kunshan Sect.”
Soon, someone recognized the young man and spoke.
“Kunshan Sect!”
Many people gasped.
The Kunshan Sect was a large sect in Jiangnan City, the provincial city. The combined martial arts power of the entire East Lake City was far inferior to the sect.
The individual martial arts factions in East Lake City were so weak in comparison that they could be crushed by the Kunshan Sect with a single finger.
At this moment, after Gu Chen’s identity was exposed, all the sounds of bidding disappeared.
Clearly, the martial arts factions in East Lake City, even if they had a strong backing, were unwilling to directly offend the Kunshan Sect.
The heads of a few martial arts schools, including Wan Rong, also started to make calls to report the news about the porcelain bowl to the factions behind the martial arts schools.
However, the heads of the martial arts schools were different from Gu Chen, a disciple of the Kunshan Sect. After all, they were outsiders to the sects. The factions behind them would not be mobilized just because of their words.
At the same time, in an underground secret base in East Lake City, all the warriors from the military were gathered. They sat around a large conference table and waited quietly.
“Ring! Ring!”
The phone rang.
Cao Zhengjun picked up the phone.
“Something has happened at the auction. Everyone, gather at the villa immediately.”
Ren Pingsheng’s message came through.
All the military warriors present heard the news.
After the call ended, all the military warriors stood up and walked out of the secret entrance, quickly rushing to the villa.
“Kunshan Sect? Does that person have a powerful backing?” Chen Yiming asked Wan Rong.
“That’s right. The Kunshan Sect and the Myriad Phenomena Sect are martial arts factions of the same level, and they are enemies,” Wan Rong explained.
“Is that porcelain bowl that valuable?” Chen Yiming asked.
He still did not know that everything had happened because of him. If he had not agreed to go on a blind date with Wan Ya, Wan Ya would not have rushed back to East Lake City from Jiangnan City. Gu Chen naturally would not have participated in this auction.
The impression of the masked man that Ren Pingsheng had was that he was still at the first stage of the warrior realm. It was Ren Pingsheng’s original plan to limit the competition for the porcelain bowl to within East Lake City.
Ren Pingsheng did not expect anyone to reveal the function of the porcelain bowl, or that there were even disciples of the Kunshan Sect present.
Although he was a city guardian, he was only at the second stage of the warrior realm. It was not suitable for him to directly announce that the porcelain bowl auction was void in front of the Kunshan Sect.
Now that the situation had changed, the chaos caused by the porcelain bowl was still not over. It was not only possible for it to stir up several large sects at the level of the Kunshan Sect in the province,
but if Chen Yiming attacked with his full strength as the masked man, the huge sword formed by four huge rocks would be extremely eye-catching. The Blue Cloud Sword Sect would definitely receive the news that the masked man had appeared. The most direct link would be Mo Yanfei.
“That depends on the level of power of the one who has the porcelain bowl. A large sect like the Kunshan Sect is completely capable of using the porcelain bowl to nurture bloodline warriors,” Wan Rong replied in a low voice.
Chen Yiming nodded his head.
The large sects at the third stage of the warrior realm had abundant martial arts resources.
In their hands, the porcelain bowl would be of far more use than it was to the Yue clan.
“This is not something we can participate in. I’ve already informed the Myriad Phenomena Sect.
There’s a high chance that a huge battle will break out near East Lake City tonight. It will involve people at the level of the heads of the inner courts,” Wan Rong glanced at Wan Ya and said calmly.
When Wan Ya heard this, she tried her best to control her emotions.
The heads of the inner courts were big figures in the second stage of the warrior realm, and the head of the Flying Crane Court was in this realm.
She had only seen the head of the Flying Crane Court attack from afar. It was just an ordinary sword move which
slashed out with the internal force that had completed its transformation from one shore to the other of a river, which was more than 100 meters wide. In an instant, a vacuum was formed, as if the river had been cut in half by a sword.
The shocking scene was still vivid in her mind, allowing her to clearly understand how powerful the second stage of the warrior realm was.
Chen Yiming pretended to have a serious expression as he looked at Gu Chen. He didn’t notice Wan Ya’s strange expression.
He was considering the timing to make a move. If he made a move too early, he would easily be surrounded and attacked. Once he killed too many heads of the various sects, the masked man would definitely be blacklisted by the various factions.
It would be terrible if he forced an internal force master to make a move.
Chen Yiming wasn’t arrogant enough to think that he could withstand someone at the level of the martial master realm.
The auction was suddenly put on pause.
Not long after, the organizer received a message from someone and handed the porcelain bowl to Gu Chen with trepidation.
Gu Chen did not leave immediately. Instead, he waited for a few more minutes. After receiving a call, he left the hall in a flash.
The martial arts school heads looked in the direction that Gu Chen had left in and glanced at their phones.
They knew in their hearts that the people from the Kunshan Sect had reacted faster and that the reinforcements had probably already set off towards East Lake City.
The heads of the martial arts schools, including Wan Rong, immediately chased after Gu Chen without hesitation. They could not let Gu Chen leave their line of sight so easily. Otherwise, they would not be able to explain themselves to their superiors.
