Lu Family's Head let out a long sigh when he saw the price was increasing without any sign of stopping. Such a high price was not something that the Lu family could afford. Even if the auction ended with them winning, the Lu family would suffer a great loss and would not be able to recover in a short period of time.

When the Lu family's strength will fall into a low tide because of fewer resources, the Sky Fire Bird's egg might be snatched away by other powers. At that time, all their efforts would be in vain.

For now, everyone's eyes fell on room number 22 on the second floor. They really wanted to know if this mysterious person was still going to continue bidding for the Sky Fire Bird's egg or not?

Ye Xiao did not think much as he said. "34 billion Supreme Coins!"

The sudden increase of one billion caused everyone's expression to change once again.

Tian Liang's face turned cold then he snorted coldly and said, "35 billion Supreme Coins!"

Now that he had received support from the sect, it would not be a problem for him to take out forty billion. Tian Liang had nothing to fear for the time being.

Tian Liang did not believe that the other party alone would have so many Middle-Grade Spirit Stones to continue bidding further.

Up until now, Tian Liang was more and more inclined to believe that the other party was the Sacred Pavilion's man.

With the price increasing to this point, other powers could only give up unwillingly.

Inside room number 22 on the second floor, Ye Xiao was impatient to continue bidding. As if he had thought of something, Ye Xiao gave a strange smile and his voice rang through the air, "40 billion Supreme Coins!"

Boom!

The first, second, and third floors of the Sacred Pavilion instantly shook the moment Ye Xiao put forth his bid.

Everyone looked at Ye Xiao's room in shock!

40 billion!

It had actually increased to 40 billion supreme coins! Compared to 35 billion supreme coins, it had directly increased by 5 billion supreme coins!

How wealthy must one be to be able to raise it by so much so easily?

Elder Hu could no longer maintain his calm expression. His hands were trembling. Even if the entire Sacred Pavilion's assets were added up to one, it might not be much more than 40 billion supreme coins.

In Tian Liang's room on the third floor of the Sacred Pavilion, Tian Liang's expression suddenly changed as he cursed in his heart, "Damn it! It seemed that the other party was not just trying to trick him. He really did mean to win the Sky Fire Bird's egg."

If he really was trying to trick so that the price of Sky Fire Bird's egg could increase, he should have stopped long ago. Otherwise, the Golden Light Sect would definitely find trouble with the Sacred Pavilion afterward.

Tian Liang looked at the number of Spirit Stones on his body. His expression hesitated for a moment, and then he gritted his teeth and was about to increase the bid, however, the Great Leader stopped him.

"Great Leader?" Tian Liang looked at the Great Leader of the law enforcement team with the "confusion" word clearly written on his face.

The Great Leader smiled coldly and said, "Forget it. Let him have the Sky Fire Bird's egg. By doing this, although he will win, but it is not certain if he will be able to keep his life or not. It will save our Golden Light Sect a lot of Spirit Stones. Second Leader, Sixth Leader, you two keep an eye on that fellow in room number 22 on the second floor. I'll go talk to the Sacred Pavilion's Pavilion Master."

"If that guy runs away quickly after the auction, you must stop him before he runs out of Holy Spirit City. Right, Don't cause trouble at the entrance of the Sacred Pavilion. If you really caused trouble at the entrance of the Sacred pavilion, that will be equal to not giving the Sacred Pavilion any face at all."

"If we anger the Sacred Pavilion, the Sacred pavilion might help this brat leave Holy Spirit City, then the gains won't make up for the losses."

"Yes!" Tian Liang had originally planned to immediately make a move after the auction, but after hearing the leader's words, his face turned cold and he responded in a deep voice.

After the leader finished giving his orders, he turned around and left with a cold expression.

In the auction house, after Ye Xiao called out a bid of 40 billion, everyone was waiting for Tian Liang to compete. Unfortunately, there was only silence.

Elder Hu felt that it was a pity. He had thought that the Golden Light Sect would call out a higher bid, but he hadn't expected them to give up so easily.

However, after thinking about it, Elder Hu was still very satisfied. According to his initial expectations, it would already be considered not bad if the Sky Fire Bird's egg could be sold at a high price of 30 billion. But now, there was an entire 10 billion more from his expectation!

10 billion Supreme coins were equivalent to 10 billion Middle-Grade Spirit Stones more than he had expected. This was already a very terrifying number.

The original bid of the Sky Fire Bird's egg was now 40 billion Supreme Coins which means 40 billion Middle-Grade Spirit Stones. What kind of wealth was this. Elder Hu did not dare to continue thinking anymore.

Elder Hu looked around and said with a smile on his face. "No one offered a higher price? Then I declare that the Sky Fire Bird's egg officially belongs to the friend in Room 22 on the second floor!"

At this moment, some of the people who suspected that Ye Xiao was the one who was entrusted by the Sacred Pavilion to raise the Sky Fire Bird's egg's price put down their suspicions.

On the second floor's room number 22, the egg of Sky Fire Bird was carried up by the Sacred Pavilion's servant.

The surface of the Sky Fire Bird's egg was flickering with patterns that looked like feathers connected to each other, making the egg look mysterious and extraordinary.

Ye Xiao's palm slowly touched the surface of the egg. He could clearly feel the terrifying fire energy contained within the egg.

With a flick of his sleeve, Ye Xiao kept the Sky Fire Bird's egg. Actually, he directly gave the egg to Little Yellow.

Anyway, this Sky Fire Bird's egg was meant to be for Little Yellow from the very beginning.

After giving the egg to Little Yellow, Ye Xiao paid 40 billion Middle-Grade Spirit Stones to the Sacred Pavilion, and then he left.

After leaving the Sacred Pavilion, Ye Xiao only walked for a few minutes when he immediately noticed that there were many people paying attention to him.

Ye Xiao smiled coldly as he muttered in his heart, "Want to snatch the Sky Fire Bird's egg from me? Then come, let me see what kind of abilities you have."

Ye Xiao's footsteps suddenly sped up.

"Not good, this kid is escaping!"

"Let's chase him secretly. We'll attack him once he is out of the Holy Spirit City."

Many experts became anxious and hurriedly chased after him.

The few big families including the Lu Family's Head, all of them followed closely behind. However, they were much more cautious and hid their presence even more secretly to not let other powers discover them.

The Sky Fire Bird's egg had been obtained by Ye Xiao. These people knew that they were not the most anxious ones. The most anxious one currently was the Golden Light Sect.

The Golden Light Sect had been used to being overbearing all these years. Now that the Sky Fire Bird's egg that they had been determined to obtain, had been snatched away by an unknown person, they definitely would not let this matter rest.

.....

In a certain room within the Sacred Pavilion.

Opposite the Golden Light Sect, law-enforcement team leader sat an old man. This old man was the current Pavilion Master of the Sacred Pavilion.

"Your Excellency, you asked me to activate the Holy Spirit Barrier. Isn't this equal to smashing my Sacred Pavilion's signboard? In the future, who would dare to auction items in my Sacred Pavilion with peace of mind?"

The old man was somewhat dissatisfied.

The Great Leader of the Golden Light smiled slightly, "What if we have this?"

Saying this, the Great Leader of the Golden Light Sect opened his palm, and a pearl that flickered with lightning appeared in his hand.

"This... This is... " When the old man saw the pearl that was wrapped in faint lightning energy, he seemed to have guessed something. His eyes widened and his entire body trembled.

"That's right. It is indeed a thunder-attribute saint core. Pavilion Master, you also have a thunder-elemental body! If you can absorb this Saint core, then... " The Great Leader said in a tempting manner.
