The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 157

He had been wanting to keep a low profile. He even thought that although he would have to speak loudly, he could change his voice by making it really hoarse and by that logic, unrecognizable.

What balderdash all of this was! All of this hiding and crouching was not to Austin's liking at all. Had he had a better option in mind, he wouldn't have resorted to such tactics. But then Raymond was there and that too, with a bone to pick would have been the quickest to find out the voice as Austin's. This whole dilemma of hiding and not hiding had no solution. After all, just because he disguised his voice once didn't mean that Austin was saved. He had to bid again and foolishly hope that he would go undetected by Raymond whenever he opened his mouth to bargain!

Austin's fears were not unfounded. The moment Raymond heard his hoarse voice, he looked in his direction, as if the voice rang a bell.

He even leaned forward and traced the source of the voice in the crowd. When he finally looked at the corner where Austin stood, Austin had nowhere to run or hide.

So what else, Austin allowed himself a bitter smile.

As the drama was playing out silently between Austin and Raymond, a sexy voice distracted the tense atmosphere. Somehow, this voice sounded even more attractive than the auctioneer's. "You are so generous, my boy," a woman said slowly and sexily. "But it's a pity that I want to buy this swordsmanship, too. I'm sorry, but I will offer two hundred and thirty thousand vital energy crystals!"

the woman declared, chuckling to herself. She had shown her determination by marking up twenty thousand vital energy crystals without showing any hesitation.

Her charming voice instantly diverted the attention from Austin to her. And rightly so. She had a stunning figure, both hot and slim to ogle at as she sat curling up in a chair that was covered with leopard print. She looked as supple as a willow, and as enchanting as a seductress.

"It's Trish! The Trish from the Flower Blooming Sect!"

Someone among the crowd said out loud in excitement, happy to have recognized this bidder.

The Flower Blooming Sect had a legendary reputation for more reasons than one. A noted sect in the Violet Orchid Empire, besides the traditional big five, its members were mostly women, most like Trish.

"Two hundred and forty thousand vital energy crystals!"

said Austin without a second thought, in a tone which seemed to challenge anybody to go higher.

"Oh, my sweet boy. You see, I really want to buy this swordsmanship and add it to my collection, of all the things. Could you just spare it for me? You are such a lovely boy and I like you very much, so could you please repay my affection by giving it to me?"

Trish asked, still smiling flirtatiously. In order to lure Austin into giving up on the swordsmanship, she kept leering at him. She was exquisitely dainty and beautiful in a glimpse. Not many men would have been able to hold their ground in the face of such persuasion. In fact, she had now stirred sexual feelings inside more than one man in the room.

Feeling the fire in the pits of their stomachs, some of them even started to imagine pressing themselves against her warm and soft body. They could picture in their mind how they would become excited and lose themselves hearing the beauty moan and exhale with pleasure, as they tasted her rosy lips.

But it didn't work for Austin at all. 'Are you kidding me? It's not meant for collectors! What a waste of money to haggle for it just to put it on the shelf!' Austin secretly complained. 'I will be a fool if I surrender it to you. A set of swordsmanship would be of no value if no one learns and practices it!'

thought Austin, rolling his eyes with disapproval.

"Two hundred and fifty thousand vital energy crystals!"

"Two hundred and sixty thousand vital energy crystals!"
