906: Chapter 206: Bid on This Coffin!
Chapter 206
“Bid for that coffin!” Mo Jiuli fell silent for a moment before instructing the bidding attendant by the bedside.
“Yes, Guest!” The bidding attendant responded and began to pay attention to the auction below.
“Jiuli, what do you want with that coffin?” Guyan asked curiously.
“Just curious!” Mo Jiuli said with a faint smile.
“Hmm, it is indeed a bit strange.
I wonder what material the coffin is actually made of.
Could it really be impervious to water and fire?” Guyan voiced his doubts.
“When it’s auctioned, we’ll take it back and you can try it out for yourself!” Mo Jiuli stated.
“That’s true!” Guyan said as he turned his attention back to the bidding crowd below, and the successive cries of the bidders.
Mo Jiuli’s Divine Sense, however, observed a nondescript corner in space, where a black fragment floated midair!
Little book sensed it and immediately arrived there.
“Master, what is this?” Little book asked curiously.
It knew everything in this space, so why didn’t it remember this fragment?
“It’s a fragment left by Mom, I couldn’t see its use, so it was thrown here directly!” Mo Jiuli explained.
She had examined this fragment before and had not found anything special about it, so she had casually tossed it into space.
If it weren’t for the moment when the coffin below appeared and this fragment suddenly became agitated, she would have completely forgotten about it…
This was also one of the reasons why she wanted to bid for the coffin.
Since the fragment in her space had reacted, it was likely that the coffin below or something inside the coffin was related to this fragment…
Little book watched for half a day, but couldn’t discern the mystery and, somewhat disheartened, returned to its duties as the little gardener…
It was also at the moment when this coffin appeared that something strange happened in the Ancestral Halls of the Seven Great Families on the Haotian Continent, in the outer realms…
In the Ancestral Halls of the Seven Great Families, the Tablets venerating the Ancestors all shattered into powder at the same time, including those of the Di Clan and Luohua Valley…
Suddenly, the members of the Seven Great Families were shaken!
They didn’t understand what was happening, so they each rushed to their respective Forbidden Lands to consult their Ancestors…
However, by the time they had finally figured out what was likely happening and arrived at Hanlin City, everything had already ended!
Mo Jiuli had long since departed with the Mysterious Coffin…
It was only later that the portraits of Mo Jiuli and Guyan spread throughout the entire Haotian Continent, forcing the two to continue their journey in their true appearances.
Naturally, that’s a story for another time…
Downstairs, the cries of the auction gradually diminished, not as many people were bidding as before.
After all, the price for an unknown item, even one that sparked curiosity, was limited…
“9,000 dark stones, any more bids?” The old man on the stage looked around and called out.
“9,000 dark stones once…”
“9,000 dark stones twice…”
“9,000 dark stones…”
“10,000 dark stones…” Just as the old man was about to call out for the third time, the bidding attendant in Mo Jiuli’s private room called out.
Seeing the source of the voice, the old man was slightly stunned.
He was aware of today’s distinguished guests on the fourth floor; it was rare for anyone to occupy that particular private room.
He hadn’t expected not only that it was occupied today but also that they took an interest in the coffin.
The old man’s attitude softened slightly as he nodded towards private room number one…
He regained his focus and continued, “10,000 dark stones.
Any more bids, Guests?
If not, then this Mysterious Coffin shall belong to the Guest on the fourth floor!”
