On the other hand, the Billios Family had countless interactions with non-human races and naturally had numerous precious items worth billions of dollars.
"The Billios Family offers a young World Tree worth thirty billion dollars."
When Jake spoke so with his unique cold yet seductive voice, the other party was rendered speechless.
A young World Tree? The most precious tree for the elves? How could the Billios Family own the young version of such a precious tree?!
The elves regarded the World Tree as their God, okay? Impossible! The Billios Family is lying!
However, the Billios Family did receive the young World Tree that was still groomed by the elves at the Elven Continent.
The cause? It was because the Billios Family prevented the World Tree from dying of an unknown sickness.
With their vast connections, the Billios Family managed to contact a legendary healer from the beastmen country.
The healer is a half deer, but her deer bloodline is a divine deer that specialized in reviving dead plants or rescuing dying plants.
Thanks to the Billios Family's contribution, the World Tree was saved, and the Elves were forever grateful to the Billios Family.
That's how the Billios Family had such a close relationship with the elves until the elves were willing to visit the human continent once every decade.
So, for Jake to own a young World Tree…that's totally possible. It's just that the government didn't want to believe it.
Alas, there's no way the government would say anything to oppose Jake since Jake had a good reputation as the number one businessman in this country.
If he said that he offered a young World Tree, it means that he's telling the truth!
When Ainsley heard Jake's words, she was stunned for a few seconds, but the one showing so much reaction wasn't her.
It was Zev instead.
[Ahhh! A young World Tree! Host, we have to get it! Absolutely!]
[…is it that good? I thought it was only a legendary tree worshipped by the elves.] Ainsley was a little sceptical.
Anyway, she didn't even think she could cultivate the World Tree and make it grow healthy. What if the climate and soil condition here wasn't suitable for the young World Tree?
But Zev kept screaming and squealing as he circled Ainsley with his diaper showing everywhere.
[No, no, a World Tree is naturally good. It's not just a mascot. I heard that if you sit next to the World Tree for an hour, it can help you heal your soul's wound!]
! Healing my wounded soul? Really??
[We don't need a soul healer anymore??]
[Naturally! If you sit next to the Young World Tree for a month, just one hour a day, your soul will be completely healed!]
Not to mention that the World Tree had a magical attribute that made a creature's lifespan longer than the average count.
This was the secret of the elves' long lifespans!
Of course, the World Tree couldn't live anywhere outside of the Elven Continent, but Jake and Zev knew more than just this rule.
Anyone who had a sacred beast as their protector would have a magic prairie where the sacred beasts would live before they made a contract with anyone.
The prairie had the same characteristics as the Elven continent! Thus, if they planted the young World Tree inside the magic prairie, the World Tree wouldn't die.
That's why when the 7 sacred families heard that Jake would give the young World Tree to the Sloan Family, their eyes reddened in jealousy–especially the Aretha Family's head.
The middle-aged man was so envious of Ainsley that he suddenly thought of attacking the Sloan Family once more.
Alas, he had to stop his thoughts when he recalled Ainsley's vast connections, starting from the Walter Family, a few big guilds, the Billios Family, and so on.
The other 7 sacred families also looked at Ainsley with unmasked jealousy yet couldn't casually attack the Sloan Family to snatch the World Tree.
They had learned their lesson when one of the 7 sacred families suffered from Ainsley's actions at the Mausoleum war.
The family fighting Ainsley was a high-ranking family affiliated to the 7 sacred families, but their lost truly dragged the backer behind them– which was one of the 7 sacred families.
The backer suffered a considerable loss, especially in terms of the shamans that they had cultivated painstakingly for decades.
Just like that, of the 7 sacred families dared to think of harming the Sloan Family, while other non-mafia families weren't stupid enough to offend the Billios Family and presumably the mafia council too.
Since Jake's bidding was already the highest and no one could bid higher than him, Ainsley scanned the guests with her calm gaze before hitting the podium with a small wooden hammer.
"Mr Billios offers a young World Tree worth 30 billion dollars. Any higher bidding?"
The whole hall was silent. No one raised their hands to bid. Even those online bidders also went silent.
"Counting one…two…three…no other bidders." Aisley immediately knocked the podium with her small hammer three times before sealing the deal.
"Congratulations to Mr Billios for winning the Inheritance Stone!"
At those words, the auction hall burst into commotion, and many guests near Jake's seat immediately congratulated him.
"Congrats, Mr Billios! The first Inheritance Stone's bearer!"
"Congratulations, Mister Billios! I wonder how you will use the stone."
"Congrats, congrats…"
After a round of applause and congratulations, the mafia council immediately closed the auction and then started the last segment of today's event.
Trading the auctioned items with the agreed items.
The guests who won the auctioned items immediately went to the first floor with the participants.
However, those who didn't win anything didn't go back and also followed behind Ainsley….
