C320 The Auction Began
Mrs. Nie purposely pointed out Hong Zhicheng's identity in order to intensify the conflict. Immediately, she moved to the side and looked at Loong Wei and Cheng Hongbo with a sneer on her face.
The moment Dong Fei saw Loong Wei, his body trembled. He was just about to step forward and greet him.
But at this time, he was coldly interrupted by Hong Zhicheng. "Stop, who allowed you to move!"
However, Dong Fei ignored him. He walked to Loong Wei and saluted. "Mr Loong!"
Hong Zhicheng's face darkened.
He knew that Loong Wei had never left Feng City, and even knew that Loong Wei had come to the auction. That was why he rode Loong Wei's carriage to show off his power. He wanted to embarrass Loong Wei.
But he didn't expect that this Dong Fei wouldn't listen to his orders at all. In the end, he would lose face instead.
"Dong Fei, how dare you disobey my orders!" Hong Zhicheng shouted decisively, his voice was mixed with a chill.
However, Dong Fei still ignored Hong Zhicheng. There was only one person in his eyes - Loong Wei!
"Let's go."
Loong Wei was too lazy to lower himself to the level of these clowns. He directly brought Dong Fei, Half-immortal Liu, and the others into the auction hall.
Cheng Hongbo looked around the crowd and followed after them.
Only Hong Zhicheng, Mrs. Nie, and the others were left with embarrassed expressions. They stood where they were and gritted their teeth.
"Mr. Hong, this Long guy is too arrogant. Can you swallow this anger?"
Mrs. Nie said coldly.
Hong Zhicheng did not listen and became even angrier when he heard her. "Loong Wei, I am Dominator of the Western Realm. You have lost to me. What right do you have to fight me?"
After saying that, Hong Zhicheng strode into the building.
Mrs. Nie and Nie Chen looked at each other and followed him.
The auction venue was set on the eighth floor of the Feng City building.
At this time, there were more than a hundred people sitting in the hall. Although there were not many people, they were all the top tycoons and socialites in Phoenix City. There were also many big shots from all over the country.
Loong Wei looked around and didn't see Shen Hong, but he found some familiar faces in the crowd.
The patriarch of the Ji family, Jee Zhengyang, Jee Yuehao, and Qin Lan were sitting next to him.
They had already known about what happened to Loong Wei in Feng City. However, they didn't expect Loong Wei to still be here.
And he had actually openly appeared in the auction.
The rest of the people who didn't know what was going on looked at Loong Wei curiously. They didn't know what was so special about this young man that he attracted so many people's attention.
The ones who reacted the most were the rich people of Feng City. The moment they saw Loong Wei, their faces turned stern. They stood up to greet him. "Greetings, Mr Loong!"
Feng City was the headquarters of Western Realm. Although Loong Wei only stayed here for a year before he returned to the life of ordinary people, they did not dare forget Lord's prestige after so many years.
A total of forty to fifty wealthy men bowed to Loong Wei. Their imposing manner was so overwhelming that it shocked everyone.
Those unknown people were all shocked in their hearts.
"Who is this man?"
"What Lord? I have never heard of him!"
"I know the man behind him. His name is Cheng Hongbo, and he is from a wealthy family. I didn't expect him to be so respectful to this young man!"
For a moment, everyone in the auction hall was discussing amongst themselves. They looked at Loong Wei with a strange expression.
One should know that there were many wealthy families in the Feng City that had a net worth of ten billion. Yet, all of them were bowing to a young man in unison?
Even Jee Zhengyang couldn't help but change his expression. He didn't expect Loong Wei to have such a huge influence in Feng City.
"Everyone, long time no see." Loong Wei nodded at everyone.
What he said was true. Loong Wei had been fighting wars all year round. Now that they saw each other again, it was like a lifetime had passed.
After greeting everyone, Loong Wei found a random seat and sat down.
But very soon, a staff member invited Loong Wei to the VIP seats in front of him.
At the same time, Hong Zhicheng and the others walked into the hall. Compared to Loong Wei's eye-catching appearance when he came in, they didn't take him seriously at all.
Many of them didn't even bother to look at them.
Hong Zhicheng instantly felt ashamed. If it wasn't for the welcoming scene when Loong Wei came in earlier, it would have been fine. However, when comparing the two of them, they actually ignored this newly appointed Lord. How could he tolerate this?
Mrs. Nie, who was standing aside, immediately scolded the crowd when she saw this. "Dominator of the Western Realm has arrived. Why aren't you all standing up to welcome him? Have you all lived enough?"
When they heard Mrs. Nie say this, everyone looked to the side. "Dominator of the Western Realm!"
"This person is Lord. Is it true?"
Everyone stood up sparsely and bowed to Hong Zhicheng.
Most of the people who stood up were foreigners who did not know what was going on. As for the rich people in Feng City, they were silent. They looked at Loong Wei, and then looked at Hong Zhicheng. They seemed to be deep in thought.
It was only at this moment that Hong Zhicheng's ashen face became a little better.
He pretended to wave his hand at the crowd and walked to the front row seat. He sat down not far from Loong Wei and looked at Loong Wei coldly.
Jee Zhengyang saw this and looked back and forth between Loong Wei and Hong Zhicheng hesitantly. It seemed like these two were going to fight today!
Then he shook his head at Loong Wei's back.
Although Loong Wei's strength was extraordinary, he had already been stripped of Lord's title. How could he fight with Hong Zhicheng?
At the same time, Auctioneer walked onto the stage.
After Auctioneer made his usual opening speech, he announced the start of the auction!
In this auction, the Remnants Drawing was the finale. There were also many antiques, jades, and rare treasures for the warm up auction.
Loong Wei and Hong Zhicheng were determined to get the Remnants Drawing. Naturally, they were not interested in the items in front of them.
Finally, after taking turns to bid, the twentieth item appeared!
"Everyone, the next item to be auctioned is an extremely rare item!" Auctioneer said in a mysterious manner. At this time, a ceremonial young lady had already brought out a wooden box.
Auctioneer slowly opened the wooden box and saw a palm-sized scroll inside. He didn't know what material it was made of.
"What is this?" Not everyone present was heading towards the Remnants Drawing. Many of them didn't even know about the existence of the Remnants Drawing.
Loong Wei's eyes sparkled.
"It really is the Remnants Drawing." Loong Wei could tell that the Remnants Drawing was the same as the one Zheng Chao gave him.
When Hong Zhicheng and Faang Kui saw this Remnants Drawing, their eyes lit up.
Auctioneer pretended to be profound and said, "Everyone, this Remnants Drawing has a mysterious origin. It is said that it contains an incredible secret treasure!"
"I don't want to talk about the rest. People who know it naturally know its value!"
"The starting price is 100 million. Each increment is no less than 10 million. The auction starts now!"
