TDG Fanfic: The Golden Throne - Chapter 50
Danny didn’t wait for anyone and immediately and instantly bet 1,000,000 purple profound tokens. After Danny placed his bet no one dared to place anything higher as Danny was the person who owned the strongest faction.
Ye Zhong was laughing at Danny’s antics as first he stole the VIP room of the sacred family. Then he spent money aimlessly while showing off his strength. Now he bought a useless page for one million just to show people his strength, money, and backing. Too bad Ye Zhong won’t know the true value of everything Danny bought. Also, he will get to know in the future that the page that Danny bought was the turning point for increasing the strength of every human in glory city.
The Divine Family, on the other hand, felt grateful to Danny as this some will help them out a lot. They felt that Danny helped them because of Linjian being his right-hand man. Currently, they had five legend ranks other than Linjian and several thousands of black gold ranks. This made them feel more relaxed and thankful to Danny. Feeling grateful the Patriarch began to lecture his son on how he should keep following Danny and staying ahead of his companions.
The auction house’s hostess wanted to grow wings and fly from happiness. She then began her count and finally congratulated VIP room 1. She waited a bit to keep the excitement from the previous bet, then began to introduce the next item. The people really thought Danny was a fool. Many began discussing what they would do if they had one million demon coins.
Getting everyone’s attention the hostess began to explain the next item. “Valued Guests, the next item is a seed that contains an immense amount of fire energy. This was discovered by the Sacred Family patriarch but the process of extracting it was lost. The records of their first Patriarch wrote that if the energy can be used it can bring a person lvl to beyond the legend rank.”
Danny who couldn’t hold it in anymore accidentally yelled, ” Idiots, all of them are so dumb.”
Danny was really surprised as this was a fire seed and judging by the energy it fit the description of a heavenly flame seed. As long as he merged with it he will be able to renurture the heavenly flame within. It was much easier to nurture a heavenly flame from a seed refined by an expert than to get a full pformed heavenly flame from nature. Their was a wide range of heavenly flames, but he hoped it was a rarer type.
By the time Danny came to and realized what he said. Danny felt embarrassed that he couldn’t hold it together. He really can’t be blamed though, after constant good treasure from these so-called nobles anyone would be shocked by the fact they didn’t even know what they were. They sold them thinking that they ripped him off.
In order to avoid suspicion, Danny said, “This obviously a seed of a Molten Flame Fruit that raises the talent of fire type cultivators. It won’t promote anyone beyond the legend rank but raises the chances to breakthrough past the legend rank by 50 percent.
Sorry for my remark, but if you, a family of fire cultivators, are selling a treasure for fire cultivators then doesn’t that sound dumb.
Anyways, I will bid 100,000 demon coins for this treasure.”
After Danny’s quick thinking, using the name of an extinct herb, to make people think the flame seed is a plant to further humiliate the Sacred family and extract himself from the role of the bad guy. He also used this chance to make a high bid. The Sacred family got pissed at his remark but stayed quiet. They tried every single method to use the seed, but couldn’t extract the flame energy. That’s why they decided to sell it. They also didn’t believe that anyone can make use of it. The whole point of this auction was to sell trash for more money and now Danny has just handed them 100,000 purple demon tokens equivalent to 1000 Adventpoints at the adventurers guild.
When the people heard Danny’s statement and the agreement from the alchemist ȧssociation those who needed this seed began to bid.
“150,000”
“200,000”
“210,000”
The biding was slowly increasing and soon reached 300,000. Danny got pissed that these people dared to outbid him so he called out while releasing his aura, “500,000 I dare anyone of you to bid again.”
After Danny threatened everyone nobody had the guts to continue bidding. Danny officially won the flame seed and the next item was taken out immediately as the auction was going on for a long time. The last item was two palm-sized swords. Yes, it sounds weird but they were not knives not daggers but swords.
“These swords are antiques from the sacred family, although they can’t be used to fight as they are delicate they can be studied to design similar weapons. The price for this weapon is not demon coins but the sacred family was a trade of at least a Top Grade Black Gold Rank weapon. So if anyone wants this weapon, please place your bid.” the Hostess finished her speech. No one offered a bid. They didn’t know if it was worth it so they were hesitant to bid.
Danny wanted this pair of weapon as a trump card against enemies who let their guard down.
Danny pulled out a weapon it was a low-grade legend rank weapon. He through it to the hostess who shrieked thinking she was getting attacked. Once the weapon, which was a sword, stabbed into the stage an auction appraiser came to appraise the weapon.
“Oh, interesting….. OMG, this is a Low-Grade Legend rank Sword. It is suited towards fire-type spiritualists. Would the Sacred family like to trade?” the appraiser asked the sacred family.
The current Patriarch smiled at his gain and asked Danny, “What is the name of this Blade Ye Mo’s disciple?”
“Old Man it has no name now I will take these two swords. Also, anyone else who likes small weapons please keep yourselves updated with the union information. Once these two are studied extensively by my Refining department they will be available in stores.” Danny began to advertise and uplifting his image as the “Union Head” and not just “Ye Mo’s” no name disciple.
“Since it doesn’t have a name I shall call it Sacred Flame. Thank you for the gift “union head” hahahahaha”
“No really thank you for the gifts and organizing this auction. Hahahaha”
After everything was set and done people began to leave as the auction was finally finished. The ending was shocking to everyone as it was their first time seeing a legend rank weapon.
Many people were making plans in the dark and many people began to feel uneasy. The sacred family especially now that they obtained a strong weapon were planning on how to obtain the city lord position. Little did they know that this weapon will lead to their downfall.
“now what do you think of my offer.”
