In the entire venue, only Ye Hongxuan and Ye Lengan remained locked in a bidding war. The two engaged in a back-and-forth, each time one called out a

price, the other promptly followed suit.

Due to their incessant bidding, in a matter of moments, the price of the Shennong Cauldron had skyrocketed to an astronomical one billion.

Moreover, judging by the trajectory of these two, it seemed they were inclined to continue the bidding.

The auctioneer on stage had transitioned from initial excitement to a state of numbness. He even felt a tinge of trepidation, as the two individuals bidding below the stage were the fiance of the Huangfu familys head and the Ye familys head. Neither seemed easy to offend.

He harbored concerns that if they couldnt secure the winning bid, the repercussions might fall upon the others. Conversely, if the winning bid proved dissatisfactory due to its exorbitant nature, it could lead to complications.

Meanwhile, onlookers in the venue wore expressions of keen interest, observing the exchange between Ye Hongxuan and Ye Lengan. Their sole focus now was on who would ultimately lay claim to the Shennong Cauldron.

While the Shennong Cauldron undeniably held great allure, the exorbitant price seemed disproportionate. The alchemists who previously failed to secure it now found solace in the fact that the soaring price had diminished their sense of loss.

Ye Hongxuans countenance had soured considerably. He had initially presumed that few present could challenge him. His upper limit for bidding was a modest 500 million Spirit Coins. However, the price had now doubled. Moreover, judging by Ye Anans demeanor, there appeared to be no intention of backing down. If this persisted, predicting the final astronomical price seemed an impossible feat.

Yet, having reached this juncture, the thought of relinquishing now was disheartening.

What is she playing at? Ye Wanwan grumbled irritably. Shes not even an alchemist. Why is she competing with us for the Shennong Cauldron? Is she doing it on purpose?

Upon hearing Ye Wanwans remarks, Ye Hongxuans already somber expression darkened further.

The auction continued, with Ye Hongxuan and Ye Lengan persisting in their tug-of-war over the Shennong Cauldron. The price had now climbed to 1.1 billion, yet neither showed any inclination to yield.

Finally, Ye Hongxuan raised his hand toward the stage and proposed, Excuse me, can we pause the auction for a moment? Id like to have a word with Miss

Ye.t

This request for a mid-auction hiatus was unprecedented.

The auctioneer, unable to decide independently, sought approval from higher-ups before reluctantly agreeing. Given the protracted stalemate, the escalating price of the auction item would indeed boost their commission. However, considering the stature of both parties involved, neither side wished to offend the other. Besides, the Shennong Cauldron had already reached an unexpectedly high bid of 1.1 billion.

In essence, whether either side relented first held no consequence for the auction house. Ideally, a resolution between the two would be reached, allowing the auction to proceed smoothly. After all, there were other items awaiting auction below, and the prolonged confrontation risked impacting the bidding for those items.

With the auctioneers response secured, Ye Hongxuan turned his gaze toward Ye Lengan and requested, Master Huangfu, Miss Ye, may I have a private word?

Huangfu Ruiling didnt respond immediately. Instead, he looked to Ye Lengan, deferring the decision to her.

Ye Lengan nodded, signaling her agreement.

She understood perfectly well why Ye Hongxuan sought her out now. It was merely an attempt to persuade her to relinquish the Shennong Cauldron. However, she was determined not to let him have his way. Regardless, she had to secure the Shennong Cauldron.

Moreover, even if Ye Hongxuan obtained it, the Shennong Cauldrons utility was limited. It was nothing more than a fragment, and even in alchemical applications, it wouldnt harness a tenth of the Shennong Cauldrons potential. Admittedly superior to an ordinary furnace, its advantages were marginal at best..
