Chapter 1545: Reveals |
The nine powerhouses appeared taken aback by Ancestor Dian Alstreim's sudden action before they became stunned by his statement.
He was willing to destroy it, but for that, one of them has to buy it?
They looked at the Illusory Yantra King Bell and confirmed that it appeared similar to what they heard. However, their expressions didn't look good as they imperceptibly avoided gazes.
"What? No one is willing to pay up for this treasure?"
Ancestor Dian Alstreim appeared confused.
"I'm more or less agreeable to accept the lowest rate possible in the market for this illusion artifact tinged with karmic luck. Does no one want to buy it?"
"..."
His question didn't garner an answer even after a few seconds had passed.
The nine powerhouses only looked at each other. The Ancestors of Twilight Physician Hall and Vital Tempering Sect also appeared the same, looking as if they were waiting for someone to step up.
"Why are all of you tongue-tied now? Does no one want to pay for a treasure that's going to prove your theory?"
"Perhaps, are you all afraid that your wealth is going to be wasted because the bell is going to be destroyed anyway? As I said, you don't have to mind that because with this, you can prove that Ancestor Dian Alstreim is controlling Ancestor Tirea Snow. Then, you can recoup all your losses as it is proved that Ancestor Tirea Snow is indeed being controlled and the marriage becomes unjust. Isn't that right, Ancestor Dian Alstreim?"
"You're exactly right, Sect Master Bing Luli." Ancestor Dian Alstreim amicably smiled, "The Illusory Yantra King Bell is a hateful treasure that targeted my family, but if someone is willing to pay for it to take it off my hands, I would be more than happy and willing to destroy it with my flames. Well, if they want to destroy it, I'll gladly give the honors to them..."
Everyone's expression twitched as they heard him speak nonchalantly.
Buying the Illusory Yantra King Bell?
What kind of treasure was this!?
It might just be a High-Level Emperor Grade Treasure that costs around a million Peak-Level Spirit Stones and above, but the karmic aura emanating from it made it appear near to a high or top-quality High-Level Emperor Grade Treasure, and the cost of such a treasure amounted to as much a billion Peak-Level Spirit Stones max!
In terms of Peak-Level Spirit Stone Vein Fragments, that is comparable to a hundred thousand Peak-Level Spirit Stone Vein Fragments!
The reason why the Illusory Yantra King Bell was so expensive compared to its predecessors persisted in the fact that the Peak-Level Emperor Grade Treasures consisting of prowess at the High-Level Ninth Stage and Peak-Level Ninth Stage were seldom made or found in the wilderness and hence, inflated.
Their cost was manifold their raw material costs, making it simply unpurchasable for a small or growing High-Level Emperor Grade Power.
Of course, the Illusory Yantra King Bell was a relatively common High-Level Emperor Grade Legacy Treasure from the Small-Sized Territories, costing a few or a dozen million Peak-Level Spirit Stones at a low market value. However, even then, it still cost a thousand or so Peak-Level Spirit Stone Vein Fragments.
Who in their right mind would purchase such a weapon that is going to be destroyed!?
Of course, the karmic aura in the Illusory Yantra King Bell would fade if the Yantra Family Powerhouses and Experts stopped nurturing it with their blood, but the fading-out would still take thousands of years for that to happen.
That's why its value cannot be decreased further.
Even after a while, no one uttered a word, not even talks about pooling resources together, although they did seem to be conversing with soul transmissions.
"So much for the sort of love you were all talking about..."
Sect Master Bing Luli sneered before she turned to look at Ancestor Dian Alstreim.
"Looks like their story is fake..."
"Of course not!"
Klein Swordhand waved his hands, "Even without the Illusory Yantra King Bell, there exist so many methods to trick Ancestor Tirea Snow. You, the Sect Master of the Mystic Ice Sect, should be clear of what illusions are capable of."
"Illusion isn't all-powerful." Sect Master Bing Luli narrowed her eyes, "It can wear off if the source is destroyed."
"Indeed, we just don't know the source at the moment..." Fierce Swordsmith Master nodded.
"We are just trying to save Beauty Snow from being treated unjustly..." Malus Claw echoed.
"Yes." Ancestor Gong Kim-Il appeared disappointed, "Why won't you understand? Aren't you a fellow woman?"
"You all..."
At this point, Sect Master Bing Luli found no point in talking to them. Her hands trembled as she clenched her fists, wanting to attack them.
How can they be so shameless? Forming so many theories yet not having the gall or capability to prove their statements.
"Sect Master Bing Luli. I thank you for your valuable support, but this matter isn't as simple as proving that Tirea isn't hypnotized or controlled."
Sect Master Bing Luli turned her head as she watched Ancestor Dian Alstreim step forward at this moment.
Ancestor Dian Alstreim possessed an indifferent expression on his face, not becoming angered as he understood their intentions. These bastards were intent on ruining this marriage even if they could not obtain his Tirea Snow.
Ancestor Tirea Snow also took a step forward.
"Everyone, I-"
"Tirea, there's no need for you to say our story." Ancestor Dian Alstreim raised his hand to the side, "These people are just envious of me. Even with your side of the story, they would still cause trouble. Therefore, it is time we make them leave."
"Ha!" Ignatius Claw pointed at him, "Look! Everyone, he's not letting Beauty Snow say what she wants to say. He's clearly forcing her..."
"You think you can unjustly obtain her today?"
Fierce Swordsmith Master appeared angered as he took his sword out. It radiated a powerful might, causing almost everyone to take out their weapons.
Swords, spears, knuckles, and even a bow, all pointed at Ancestor Dian Alstreim, aiming to force him to give Beauty Snow up.
The people below trembled as they realized that the situation above became extremely tense. With just a tiny sound or a spark, it was like their battle could ignite at any time!
However, Ancestor Dian Alstreim still appeared indifferent to their actions.
"You're right, Dian."
Ancestor Tirea Snow spoke in this silence, causing her voice to echo rather loud.
"It's time we made them leave. If anything happens to you, I promise I'll spend the rest of my time hunting down these people, having their blood adorn your grave."
Hearing her words, the twelve powerhouses felt their hearts shiver. Even Sect Master Bing Luli and Ancestor Xia Yun had their eyes go wide in shock.
Did she love him that much?
