Chapter 2930: One Hundred Million

Li Qiye smiled at Jinning and said: “Why not? Are they going to eat me?”

He didn’t hold back on his voice while she was blinking at him in a futile attempt to stop him .

“They’re Brightking Buddha’s companions, don’t compete with them . ” She whispered .

“So what? I don’t care if Brightking Buddha is here in person . ” Li Qiye refused .

She became afraid, not wanting him to invite needless trouble that might end with death .

The two monks’ expression changed after hearing this . They were attendants of Brightking Buddha, known as Brightking Left Child and Brightking Right Child .  [1]

Brightking Buddha was extremely prestigious in Immortal Lineage on top of being powerful . Rumor has it that he was a grand-completion Everlasting or at the peak level . All in all, he was not one to be trifled with .

He joined Academy of Light and became the strongest student in Western Bank on top of being the abbot of Lankavatara Temple - the largest in the world . This latter status was far more prestigious than the first, gaining him the respect of many systems .

These two were his direct attendants and always served him . Thus, they were respected by others as well .

Now, Li Qiye’s blatant disregard for them on top of insulting their master made their expression change .

“Amitabha . ” The two of them placed their palms together in unison .

“Benefactor, this wooden Buddha was carved by our progenitor so we wish to take it back to our temple . Please do us this favor . ” The right one said .

This was reasonable if the wooden carving originated from their progenitor . It was fine for them to want to take it back to their temple .

Jinning shot more glances at Li Qiye, telling him to abandon this carving . They didn’t need to offend Brightking Buddha and his temple .

This particular temple had numerous worshippers in Immortal Lineage . Brightking Buddha was naturally very influential as the abbot .

“That has nothing to do with me . ” Li Qiye ignored her and said: “It’s just a transaction, go tell someone else about Buddhist fate . ”

The two have never experienced such disdain before . Being disrespectful to monks was one thing but one needed to gauge their abilities going against an entire religion .

“Friend, how much is this carving?” The left monk asked the worker .

“300,000 Eternal stones, but of course, hmm, the highest bidder takes it . ” The worker could tell that these two groups wanted the carving at all costs . Thus, he encouraged competition .

“I will pay 400,000 . ” The right child immediately said .

“I see, I see . ” The worker became excited at the generous display and smiled wryly at Li Qiye who was holding the carving: “Sir, this esteemed monk is offering 400,000, do, do you still want the carving?”

“1,000,000 . ” Li Qiye stroke the carving and said flatly .

The two monks became annoyed as a result .

“1,100,000 . ” The right one fought back .  

They couldn’t be as bold as Li Qiye and more than double the price . Of course, they could afford to spend given their status but 1,000,000 Eternal stones were a big sum .

“5,000,000 . ” Li Qiye replied without batting an eye .

“5,000,000…” Jinning looked like a cat that had its tail stepped on .

“5,000,000?” The worker was shocked too . He has seen many customers but none ever raised the price so much .

Li Qiye seemed to be telling everyone that money is no problem .

The two monks found this to be extremely confrontational, going five times higher .

“We bid five- . . . ” The two of them gritted their teeth after hesitating .

“10,000,000 . ” However, Li Qiye casually interrupted them with another bid .

The two had no choice but to swallow their words, turning red afterward and were speechless .

“You’re insane…” Bai Jinning turned pale . This item was only worth 300,000 but the bid was now 10,000,000 - simply illogical .

The stunned worker thought that this was a once-in-a-hundred-years customer . Just doubling the price was bravado enough . This guy took it to a whole new level as if he was afraid of spending too little .

The two monks exchanged glances . This sum was large enough to make it very difficult now .

They then looked at the carving in Li Qiye’s hand . They could see that it wasn’t simple since they had a keen insight after following their master for so long . Moreover, they were masters themselves .

This carving had incredible Buddhist affinity and probably did come from their progenitor . They weren’t completely sure about this but the carving was definitely worth more than 300,000 stones . 10,000,000 stones were a different story .

Thus, they hesitated and wondered . The crux of the issue was its origin . The value differed so much depending on if it came from their progenitor or not .

They finally made up their mind while staring at the carving, albeit begrudgingly, and were ready to bid again .  

“50,000,000 . ” However, Li Qiye bid before they could speak .

“50,000,000?!!!” The worker blurted out . The shopkeeper noticed and ran over as well .

“You… this isn’t a game…” Jinning’s legs trembled as she tugged on his sleeve and whispered .

“100,000,000 . ” He responded to her with another raise for no reason .

“ . . . I…I…” Jinning couldn’t form a coherent sentence .

The worker nearly fainted and leaned on the shopkeeper .

The experienced shopkeeper found this astounding as well . Li Qiye ended up bidding 100,000,000 stones for an item priced at 300,000?

Plus, he didn’t even bother listening to his competition and just raised the price all by himself .

No one has seen someone bidding against himself before since it made no sense . Only an idiot would do so and they have met one today .

The monks had an ugly expression . First, let’s put aside whether they could afford it or not, spending this much on a wooden Buddha wasn’t worth it . It wasn’t a supreme treasure .

“Ahem, S-sir, you sure you want this carving?” The shopkeeper cleared his throat and was skeptical .

1 . These names are a little silly, it is what it is . The word for attendant here has a similar meaning as “squire”, but I can’t exactly use that .
