Invincible Divine Sword-Chapter 213 - : You Actually Dare to Refuse
Chapter 213: Chapter 213: You Actually Dare to Refuse
“Grandfather!” Li Qianqian saw that it was Li Hong himself who had arrived, and her pretty face brightened with joy. She got up to greet him and then latched onto Li Hong’s arm.
Li Hong was very fond of Li Qianqian, and with a smile, he said, “Girl, you’re such a grown-up now, still acting like a little child.” While speaking, he entered the hall.
Along the way, the various strong figures present all bowed their heads slightly.
Li Hong walked to the center of the hall and stopped. He looked at Long Lan and smiled, “Little Lan, it’s been some years since we last met, and it seems like you’ve made quite some progress in your strength.”
Long Lan clasped his fist, bowed slightly, and smiled, “Li Hong, Senior, you flatter me. My strength is hardly worth mentioning.”
Li Hong’s gaze fell on Yang Xiaotian, “This must be Friend Yang Xiaotian, who controls the Thunder Tribulation Divine Fire and crafted a Profound Level Elixir at the Martial King Realm. Truly a Divine Miracle.”
“He truly is the young Medicine God.”
The young Medicine God!
Hearing Li Hong’s evaluation of Yang Xiaotian, Gu Shaozong’s face turned as ugly as it could get.
Yang Xiaotian said, “I’m not worthy of being called the young Medicine God, I’ve just had some lucky opportunities.”
Li Hong, with an admiring expression, laughed and said, “Friend Yang, this Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water is needed by my father. Could you do Li a favor and sell it to me?”
Everyone was stunned.
Who was Li Hong? The current owner of Green Lotus Tavern, an existence on equal footing with the Sky-Stepping Sect Master and the Great Emperor of the Divine Dragon Empire.
And he himself was personally asking Yang Xiaotian!
Just when everyone thought Yang Xiaotian would nod in agreement, Yang Xiaotian shook his head, “This Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water is also a must-have for me!”
Everyone was stunned once again.
They looked at Yang Xiaotian with strange expressions on their faces.
Yang Xiaotian had just refused Li Hong!
“How dare you refuse!” Li Qianqian, seeing that her grandfather had asked and Yang Xiaotian still dared to refuse, could not help but rage.
Jiu Wu, Wang Zhou, Long Xingkong, Gu Shaozong, and others saw Yang Xiaotian boldly refuse Li Hong, giving no face to him and, after their surprise, they all were secretly delighted.
Li Hong was also taken aback; he had not expected that despite his personal visit and speaking in person, Yang Xiaotian still did not give him any face.
His brow furrowed—where did Yang Xiaotian get the confidence? Did he feel that, having control over Divine Fire, he could so arrogantly think he had the right to disregard him?
Or did he think that Long Lan was backing him, which gave him the confidence to directly refuse him?
He glanced at Long Lan.
That glance sent a cold sweat down Long Lan’s forehead.
Li Hong’s mind raced, looking at Yang Xiaotian with a smile, “Young hero Yang, truly unflinching in the face of danger.” Then he said, “It seems my old face isn’t very effective here.”
“Since that’s the case, let’s have a fair auction.”
Having said that, he turned to Wu Qing and said, “One hundred and eighty thousand.”
One hundred and eighty thousand!
Li Hong spoke casually, but the crowd felt their muscles twitch at his words.
“Two hundred thousand!” Yang Xiaotian, not wanting to waste words with his opponent, directly shouted two hundred thousand.
Two hundred thousand!
Some friends who had been suffering from a toothache suddenly found their toothache gone.
Everyone was shocked by Yang Xiaotian’s two hundred thousand bid.
Two hundred thousand top-grade Spirit Stones, that’s two billion lower-grade Spirit Stones.
Imagine two billion lower-grade Spirit Stones piled up there; even ants might not be able to climb over them.
Li Hong heard Yang Xiaotian raise the price to two hundred thousand in one go but maintained his composure. After hesitating for a moment, he called out, “Two hundred and fifty thousand!”
Two hundred and fifty thousand!
Some of the normally formidable masters nearly lost their balance and nearly fell into their seats.
“Three hundred thousand!” Yang Xiaotian called out unaffected.
Some, who had been about to fall but had not, now could no longer stand firm and collapsed in droves.
Even Long Lan couldn’t help but inhale sharply.
Li Hong’s aged face also twitched.
Li Qianqian, Long Xingkong, and the others were left with their minds blank from the shock of Yang Xiaotian’s three hundred thousand bid.
Normally, they had seen transactions involving several hundred thousand or even millions of inferior-grade Spirit Stones, but three billion inferior-grade Spirit Stones were unheard of.
“Has he gone mad?” Zhu Xuan muttered to himself as he looked at Yang Xiaotian.
The Sixfold Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water was a treasure, but spending three billion inferior-grade Spirit Stones on it seemed not worth it!
In everyone else’s eyes, the Sixfold Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water was worth at most one billion inferior-grade Spirit Stones.
That was already three times the amount.
With three billion inferior-grade Spirit Stones, one could buy many more treasures. Why was Yang Xiaotian so determined to fight for the Sixfold Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water?
Li Hong looked at Yang Xiaotian with a strange expression.
Now, he realized, this young fellow, whose brain must have been kicked by a donkey, was truly determined to obtain the Sixfold Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water.

Li Hong’s face alternated between cloudy and clear, ultimately shaking his head and deciding not to follow up with another bid.
If he continued to bid, it wouldn’t be his brain that was kicked by a donkey, but rather by a tiger.
Besides, even if he spent over thirty billion inferior-grade Spirit Stones to genuinely purchase the Sixfold Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water, his father might not be pleased and could very well kick him in the head.
Seeing Li Hong no longer continue, the crowd breathed a sigh of relief.
If the bidding went on, the first thing unable to bear it would probably be the chairs they were sitting on.
In the end, Yang Xiaotian successfully acquired the Sixfold Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water with three hundred thousand superior-grade Spirit Stones, and upon receiving it, his face and heart were filled with joy.
Li Hong looked at the joyous Yang Xiaotian, shook his head, and then turned to leave the auction.
Upon leaving, Li Qianqian glared at Yang Xiaotian fiercely.
Powers from all sides also left one after another.
Wang Zhou, Long Xingkong, Gu Shaozong, and others left with schadenfreude.
Without lingering, Yang Xiaotian led Wu Qi and the others to leave as well.
Long Lan also took Qingxuan back to the Imperial Palace. When parting with Yang Xiaotian, Long Lan pondered and said, “Friend Yang, it would be best not to leave the Imperial Capital for the time being.”
Yang Xiaotian knew Long Lan was concerned about his safety and nodded, “All right, Uncle Lan, I understand.”
As Qingxuan left, repeatedly looking back, Long Lan dragged her back to the Imperial Palace.
After returning to Azure Dragon Residence, Yang Xiaotian silently took out the True Dragon Bead and let the Black Flood Dragon King and the Azure Thunder Python refine it together.
However, not long after Yang Xiaotian returned to Azure Dragon Residence, Liang Yafei of the True Dragon Divine Sect was already on his way there.
He had just received an order from his sect to recruit Yang Xiaotian as a seed disciple and invite him to join the sect.
On the way, Zhu Miaomiao couldn’t help saying, “Master, this Yang Xiaotian is a troublemaker. He has offended too many people. Recruiting such a person into the True Dragon Divine Sect might bring trouble to the sect.”
“Even if he has subdued the Divine Flame, he may not necessarily become the Medicine God in the future!”
Liang Yafei shook his head, “Recruiting Yang Xiaotian is the will of the ancestor. We just need to follow the order.”
Hearing that it was the ancestor’s will, Zhu Miaomiao dared not object any further.
Moments later, Liang Yafei arrived at Azure Dragon Residence and stated his purpose.
“Recruiting me as a seed disciple.” Yang Xiaotian was surprised.
With a smile, Liang Yafei said, “Indeed, Friend Yang, our Sect Master said that if you join the True Dragon Divine Sect, all the medicinal materials of the sect can be at your disposal.”
“Moreover, upon entering the sect, your status will be equivalent to that of a core disciple.”
