"I'll offer one billion."
He stood up and shouted loudly.
Competing with money? Do you think I'm afraid of you?
The foundation of the Dragon Soul Organization is beyond measure!
Just the assets of the few companies in the open are worth at least five thousand billion, totaling several trillion in total!
The hidden assets are even more innumerable!
The two of them began to wildly bid against each other, shocking everyone present.
In just five minutes, they had gone crazy and raised the price to nearly one hundred billion.
It seemed like for them, one billion was no longer a small goal but merely a casual remark.
Some wealthy individuals, who prided themselves on being rich, began to feel a bit ashamed.
Tang Yu's madness was understandable.
The Tang family? They were truly wealthy.
But who was this guy competing with Tang Yu?
Is it really worth going to such lengths just for face?
When the price reached one hundred billion, Lu Junzhuo’s eyes had turned red.
For him, this opportunity was too important.
But one hundred billion was indeed a bit too expensive.
"I give up."
Just as he was red-eyed, Tang Yu suddenly stopped bidding.
"Then congratulations to this gentleman."
The old man on stage quickly struck his small hammer, overjoyed in his heart.
Their auction house could get a three percent commission.
This one hundred billion was a net income of three billion!
He looked at Tang Yu with admiration.
This young man, truly a business genius.
He had put up something barely passable as art and managed to raise the price with someone else, effortlessly making a fortune.
No wonder he was the young master of the Tang family, he could easily achieve things we couldn’t!
"Loser, is that all you got?"
Although he successfully acquired the treasure, Lu Junzhuo was seething with anger, cursing at Tang Yu.
This guy had dared to make him waste so much money!
Even his life wouldn’t be enough to compensate for it!
"Excuse me, could the staff please handle this uncivilized person who is assaulting me verbally?"
Tang Yu raised his hand, looking like a kid tattling.
The staff immediately looked embarrassed and walked over to Lu Junzhuo.
"Sir, please mind your manners. Attacking others and disrupting order during the auction is not allowed."
Lu Junzhuo’s face turned a dark shade of green as he gave a cold snort and made a throat-slitting gesture at Tang Yu.
The item had already been auctioned off.
This kid? He would live at most for one more chapter!
He was eager to exact his revenge on Tang Yu!
So he stood up and left his seat, asking the staff to take him to pay.
According to the auction house's rules, as soon as the item was bought and payment made, it could be taken away.
He wanted to immediately take the Nine Revolutions Pill, break through on the spot, and then intercept Tang Yu to kill him!
Hearing that he was about to pay, the staff happily led the generous customer to the VIP lounge to wait.
One hundred billion was a record-breaking amount for their auction house.
Although this wealthy guest was a bit coarse, the three billion commission they were about to earn made it all worth it.
Following the staff to the backstage, he pulled out his card to make the payment.
As per the usual scenario in such novels, even the largest transactions would finish within a few minutes.
So, within a few minutes, one hundred billion had been transferred to the auction house’s company account.
"Dear guest, this is our auction house’s platinum membership card. You are now one of Wanbao Lou's top VIPs."
Receiving the payment, the staff immediately handed Lu Junzhuo an exquisite membership card.
Lu Junzhuo took the card with a black face, feeling no sense of gain whatsoever.
Damn it, I'm so screwed.
"Hurry up and give me the item."
He impatiently urged, his tone sharp.
"Yes, Mr. Lu."
The staff quickly had the jade lion carefully brought over.
Once the item was handed to Lu Junzhuo, the staff breathed a sigh of relief.
This was a billion-worth of a hot potato.
If it accidentally fell and broke while in their hands, who could take responsibility?
"Mr. Lu, if there’s nothing else, we’ll take our leave for now? If you need our delivery service anytime, just let us know."
The staff spoke respectfully.
"Go ahead, and don’t let anyone in without my permission."
Lu Junzhuo pointed at the door impatiently.
The staff quickly and carefully left the VIP lounge, closing the door behind them.
After the staff left, Lu Junzhuo examined the jade lion.
Indeed, there was a nine-grid lock mechanism underneath!
He sneered, operated the mechanism, and quickly unlocked the Nine Palace Lock.
Inside was a black pill.
Upon seeing this pill, Lu Junzhuo’s mood became excited.
The Nine Revolutions Pill!
This wondrous medicine had long been lost!
Even with his medical skills, he couldn’t reproduce the formula.
Now that he had finally obtained one, he was truly thrilled.
Swallow it!
He would then be able to break through to the Earth Realm!
Then, Tang Yu would undoubtedly die!
The Dragon King’s position would also be his!
He held the pill to his nose and sniffed.
It had a medicinal scent.
And a faint stench?
As a top-notch traditional Chinese medicine doctor, he didn’t think much of it.
There were thousands of types of Chinese medicinal materials, each with different flavors!
"The ability to incorporate both pleasant and foul smells, this refining technique is truly inconceivable, comparable to the principle of putting ice and charcoal together in a stove! I truly admire whoever made the Nine Revolutions Pill."
He genuinely admired the expert who created the Nine Revolutions Pill.
"Tastes clean and suitable for livestock, dear friends."
He chuckled to himself.
Then he put the Nine Revolutions Pill into his mouth.
He savored it with a look of enjoyment.
Hmm, it was slightly bitter.
The saying goes, "Good medicine tastes bitter," and he understood this principle.
After munching a few more times, the bitter taste began to change.
The stench in his mouth grew stronger, feeling like a muffled fart from his mouth.
"This is... shit?"
Lu Junzhuo suddenly recognized the familiar taste and his face slightly changed.
Once, during a mission, to hide, he jumped into a cesspool and submerged for three minutes.
At that time, he was splashed with a big mouthful.
This was the same familiar smell.
"Could it be that there’s shit in the ingredients of the Nine Revolutions Pill? What kind of shit is this?"
After swallowing the chewed pill, Lu Junzhuo pondered this in his mind.
There’s a very precious Chinese medicinal material called Night-Shining Sand, which is actually bat dung.
Besides that, there are other animal dung.
Even human dung can be medicine, called Golden Juice.
Just as Lu Junzhuo was about to use this opportunity to deduce the Nine Revolutions Pill’s formula...
A sharp pain suddenly erupted in his stomach.
The scene of increasing inner qi and breaking through his cultivation that he had imagined, however, never appeared.
Being an expert in medicine, he naturally understood what was happening to his body.
Poisoned?
"Not good, there’s poison in... in the drug... in the shit..."
Lu Junzhuo’s face drastically changed, and he immediately opened his mouth and desperately vomited.
Once he spat out all the Nine Revolutions Pill residue, he felt like his mouth had become a sewage pit.
An indescribable stench gushed from the vomit.
Even worse, the poison had already spread throughout his body.
He quickly took a detox pill he had concocted, feeling slightly better afterward.
"Damn it, I’ve been fooled."
At this moment, he suddenly realized it, his eyes turning red as he rushed out of the VIP lounge.

e school belle recognized by the whole school, a genius girl from the kendo club. She also has a hidden identity, the youngest legendary demon hunter. Chen Shuo just transmigrated and found himself turned into a weak, helpless little vampire. He was caught by Su Xiyen and taken home at the very beginning. Since then, Chen Shuo's life creed only had two items. "First, classmate Su Xiyen is always right." "Second, if classmate Su Xiyen is wrong, please refer back to item one." Many years later, Chen Shuo, who had turned back into a human, led a pair of twins to appear in front of all the vampires to share the secret of how he turned back into a human. "It's simple, I tricked a female demon hunter into becoming my wife!"

close your eyes and open them again, only to find yourself transmigrated into the role of a villainous male supporting character. Readers familiar with urban wish-fulfillment novels know that it is only through the relentless antics of the villainous male supporting character that the plot between the male and female leads can progress. As the villainous male supporting character, Long Aotian not only has to bully the female lead, harass the second female lead, and flirt with the third female lead, but he also has to go all out to antagonize the male lead. In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"

u serious?" Chen Feng watched helplessly as his painstakingly trained disciple, fresh off a championship victory, publicly abandoned him. "You had your chance, but you didn’t appreciate it. Now, face the consequences of your choice!" Chen Feng possessed the "Master System," a treasure trove of supreme martial arts techniques, capable of molding ordinary individuals into peerless prodigies. "Legs like yours? A shame not to train in the Crippling Kick." "Ever heard of a palm strike that descends from the heavens?" "Auntie! I see extraordinary bone structure in you—a martial arts prodigy, one in ten thousand." The once-defiant senior disciple, now watching her juniors rise to fame one after another, dominating the internet, was consumed by endless regret.
