1493 One Billion
In the auction house, some knew Yu Qian and Jun Shiling, and some did not. Everyone looked at each other without exception.
“What’s going on? Are these two here to seek revenge??”
“I just heard that these two seem to be love rivals. Do you see the woman in the middle?? Femme fatale.”
The whispers behind her reached Xia Wanyuan’s ears. She frowned slightly.
At this moment, Jun Shiling, who had been silent, suddenly stood up. He looked coldly at the person who had been gossiping. “Do you like to gossip about others so much?”
There was a restriction on entry to today’s auction. Those who could come to the venue were either rich or noble. Now that they saw how arrogant Jun Shiling was, the people behind him had a temper.
“Pfft, I can say whatever I want. Why? Does your family own this auction house?? Who do you think you are?”
Jun Shiling did not argue with him. Instead, he reached out and called the person in charge over. “Get him out.”
“Yes.” The staff looked at the person who had gossiped just now. “Please leave.”
The person who was singled out looked at the staff in shock, then at Jun Shiling. In the end, he left the venue angrily.
With a lesson learned, the people behind became much more obedient.
Jun Shiling sat back in his seat and looked down at the tea on the table. “Change it.”
“Yes.” The staff immediately understood and got someone to change Xia Wanyuan’s glass.
Xia Wanyuan kept her head lowered and quietly looked at the patterns on the cup, as if she was not paying attention to what was happening around her.
In such a strange atmosphere, the auction began according to the normal process.
The things auctioned in this auction house were different from ordinary things in the outside world. The items auctioned here were relatively precious and rare.
However, Xia Wanyuan was not interested. She kept her head lowered, regardless of what was displayed on stage.
Until the host announced the last exhibit. “I believe everyone present has more or less heard of the legend that can rotate time and space. Actually, this legend is true.”
As soon as the host finished speaking, the room was in an uproar.
This tale was unbelievable, but this auction house had always been known for its integrity. Everyone’s hearts wavered.
The host continued, “A thousand years ago, a ruler of a country used the Nine Stars Rotation Array to revive his family. This array formation is the key to rotating time and space.”
“So what’s your exhibit today?? That array??” The people below did not understand.
The host shook his head. “Of course not. Even if I tell you the formation secret, you’re not a professional and can’t use it.”
“Then why are you so mysterious?”
The host gestured for the staff to bring the exhibit up. Through the glass cover, everyone could see a roll of parchment lying peacefully inside.
“Everyone, please take a look.” The host introduced the last exhibit of the night to everyone. “Inside is the exact location of the Nine Stars Rotation Array. With this, when you gather the sacred artifacts, you will naturally have the power to travel through time and space.”
Although everyone was skeptical of the host’s words, everyone present did not lack money. It was not bad to bring this potential treasure home.
However, in the next second, the host reported the bidding price.
“One billion.”
“Are you crazy??” Everyone present suspected that they were hallucinating and had heard wrongly.
A billion??
