Chapter 447

Author: Lorelei Thunder
Meeting that man's eyes would terrify anyone. It was as if they were being watched by a venomous snake.

He was certainly an ambitious and intelligent man.

Everyone enthusiastically greeted Michael wherever he walked past.

"Hello, Mr. Hauser!"

"Mr. Hauser, what an honor to see you here!"

"Could you possibly offer me some guidance?"

"Hello, everyone! It's been a long time," Michael plastered on a smile and said.

Then, he looked straight ahead as he walked to the front row.

A smile finally appeared on his face when he saw Macarius and Gerald.

"Mr. Hauser!"

"Master Davis!"

"Mr. Whitlock!"

The three greeted each other.

From an outsider's point of view, the three great masters seemed to share a peaceful relationship.

But that was just how it looked from the outside.

Gerald was always calm and nonchalant as he led his peaceful life. But the same couldn't be said for the other two.

After all, they were in the same trade. Hence, competition between them was unavo

    Woody again! Lionel's face was filled with resentment. Why? He was merely an ex-convict who just got out of prison. How was he any better than him, a young master of jewelry appraisals? He had Gerald, an esteemed figure in the industry, to defend him. And not only that, Gerald was even willing to let his precious daughter be with him. That was too much! And now, even the second-in-command of the Goldburns Corporations had called out his name! From the moment David arrived at the auction, he didn't bother to look at anyone at all. It had to be a great honor to be remembered by David and have him calling one's name out! After asking his question, David still appeared arrogant. Then, he suddenly realized that everyone's gaze went to the same person. They were looking at a young man dressed in regular clothes and sitting between Gerald and Ginger. "Mr. Henderson?" Theo frowned and asked, "Mr. David, do you not know him?" "Who's that?" David asked. Theo said, "

    "Thank you for attending our auction. On behalf of my family, I thank and welcome you all here." Mabel furrowed her brows a little before politely saying, "As the saying goes, the guests should always follow the host's rules. "Since you're all guests with prominent statuses, please abide by our rules now that you're on the ship. It's our family's responsibility and duty to stop fights and ensure our guests' safety, after all." Mabel had dealt with a few similar small fights like this before, and she had chosen to suppress her emotions and gently persuade both parties to calm down. But it was different this time. The auction was just about to start, and it was happening in the main hall too. Backing down would only embolden these people further. And so, Mabel wanted to punish someone as a warning for the others.Upon Mabel's arrival, David clenched his teeth in anger. However, he had no choice but to wave at his bodyguards and signal for them to back off. If he didn't h

    As expected, many eyes landed on Woody, waiting for him to express his opinion. "I have zero interest in things like this," Woody said with a nonchalant expression. Lionel immediately asked, "Really? I bet you're just too poor to bid for anything here, that's why you said that!" Upon hearing this, Gerald was a little angry. "What do you mean by that, Lionel? How dare you look down on Mr. Henderson? "Listen up, I'll pay for anything Mr. Henderson might be interested to buy today, regardless of the price!" Lionel snorted and snickered. "You're a rich man, Mr. Whitlock. I'm not even surprised to hear such words from you. "But some people are just shameless enough to hide behind the others' backs. He's not a man at all! "Are you sure you don't want such an amazing treasure trove?" Lionel wanted to provoke Woody. And once Woody fell for his trap, he would have tons of ways to drive the price up to an insane amount. Then, Woody would suffer a big loss. But unfortunately, th

    The auctioneer was expecting a fervent wave of bids after such an enthusiastic introduction. However, he got the opposite response. Everyone listened to the introduction with great interest, but no one raised their paddle. This made things a little awkward."The golden tongue is an artifact placed in the mouth of a deceased during burial," Lionel explained as if he were an expert."The ancient people thought that the gods spoke a different language and that by burying the dead with a golden tongue, they would be able to converse with the gods in the afterlife."Although it is meaningful, it was only meant for the deceased. On the contrary, for the living, it's not so… I guess everyone knows what I mean, right?"To many people, owning something that belonged to the dead was quite a taboo. And although the auctioneer mentioned that it was unearthed in the last century, nobody could be sure that he was telling the truth. While cruise auctions could save a lot of hassle and weren

    Congratulations? There was nothing to congratulate Woody on!Everyone mockingly looked at Woody. They thought that he was a fool for spending six million dollars on an item belonging to a dead person with such a strong negative energy. Was he trying to jinx himself?Many had witnessed the confrontation between Macarius and Lionel against Woody earlier. And after that, they also saw David's interaction with Woody too. Initially, he had gotten full support from Gerald and Ginger. So, perhaps there was something special about him.But from the looks of it now, he was just a commoner, after all. Or maybe he was no better than a commoner since any normal person wouldn't be capable of such an abnormal act.Just then, a female staff came over to Woody holding a tray with the golden tongue on it. Even though it was within a glass cover, the girl couldn't help but shiver at its sight. Her exposed skin was clearly turning pale and had goosebumps all over it. She gritted her teeth

    Woody whispered, "With this, I'm confident that Ginger can ascend to the Master Level before the age of 20."Upon hearing this, Gerald was shocked, and Ginger was exhilarated. Just a few days ago, she was bed-ridden and severely ill!From Gerald's perspective, he didn't care too much about how much Ginger could achieve in her training. All he wanted for her was to live a safe and happy life. And given the Whitlocks' financial power, this would be no feat. But if Ginger could have extraordinary achievements in martial arts, it would be delightful news to Gerald as well. And once Ginger had self-defense skills, he could leave the family to her with peace of mind.However, Ginger's unexpected illness had caught him by surprise. And in order to treat her illness, he was even willing to offer the top treasures in his treasure vault. He'd reckoned that his offer of such a valued reward would attract more brave men and talented doctors.As long as Ginger could be treated, he would

    Woody snorted softly. If Alexia was capable enough, then she should find a real treasure for him."Just you wait. I'll definitely blow your mind, or else, you can really start calling me Snowy!"Shrugging, Woody took a glance at the pomeranian in Ginger's arms."Ah, I'm so mad!" Alexia exclaimed. Then, she started to struggle in Ginger's arms. Even though Woody didn't say a word, she understood what he'd meant.Whatever she was called didn't matter to Woody because she was just a pet named Snowy now anyway. Alexia wished that she was a little dumber. Because she'd instantly understood what Woody had meant, she made herself angrier instead."What's wrong, Snowy?" Ginger quickly tried to calm Alexia down. "We're in a public area, so don't make a scene now! "Sir, maybe it wants to pee."If that were true, then it would be troublesome.Without hesitation, Woody said, "Of course not. This little nugget is just disobedient. Spank its bottom, and it'll stay still."After spe

    David was a wealthy and esteemed guest, after all. Hence, receiving him with politeness was the most basic requirement.David waved his hand and loudly ordered, "Bring it over!"Then, a man dressed in black and wearing sunnies walked over with a delicate gift box. "Mr. David, this is it."After opening the gift box, David retrieved a dark green colored bead from within and presented it to Mabel and everyone else. "Ms. Swenson, I suppose you are familiar with this, aren't you?"Mabel's brows furrowed together slightly, and she said, "This should be the Cosmic Night Pearl you bought two years ago when you first participated in the cruise ship auction. "If my memory serves me right, you finally won the bid after more than a dozen rounds of bidding. "Is there a problem with it?"Sniggering, David said, "It makes things easier since you admit that this came from your auction fair. Back then, this item cost me 30 million dollars."Upon hearing this, everyone looked flabbergasted.

    Solomon didn't dare to resist and could only comply.By the time everyone arrived at the back of the mountain, the sky was already starting to lighten.Directly ahead lied a deep canyon with steep cliffs.Woody tied one end of the rope to the bridge pillar, slung the coil of rope over his shoulder, and nodded to the people around him."Is there something wrong?" Woody asked the battered elder.The elder quickly responded, "No problem!"Woody pushed off with one foot, launching himself into the air toward the other side of the cliff.While Woody was halfway through the flight, his body began to plummet downward.From this angle, he didn't stand a chance of making it across.At that moment, a giant eagle swooped in from the side.The elder stood at the edge of the cliff and blew the eagle whistle.The giant eagle spread its wings, and with Woody stepping onto its back, they instantly shifted from falling to ascending.In the next moment, he landed steadily at the edge of the

    Woody's bold statements echoed throughout the entire Martial Arts Union Headquarters.In the past, if anyone dared to speak to their union president like that, Solomon wouldn't even need to say anything–the followers alone would leave the person questioning their life choices!In front of the Headquarters, how could he be allowed to speak recklessly?The current situation was that Woody not only said something, but also tore down their gate and injured dozens of their people.Of course, this number wasn't set in stone.If anyone else dared to step up, Woody certainly wouldn't hold back and was more than willing to help the Martial Arts Union continue increasing the number of casualties."You... have quite the attitude!"Solomon, being the union president of the alliance, held a certain standing and position, so it was unlikely for him to just back down easily.In reality, he had been feeling extremely anxious for quite some time.The eight seasoned elders teamed up and still c

    He didn't want anyone to mention it, especially in public."Where are the eight elders?" Solomon's eyes were filled with rage as he shouted loudly."Here!" The eight elders spoke in unison, giving their response."That person destroyed our place and harmed our followers; he should be struck down on the spot to serve as a warning to others," Solomon said through gritted teeth.The eight elders responded in unison, "Yes, sir!""Attack!"The eight of them were all masters of martial arts who had reached the Peak level.They had impressive performance!At the headquarters, in terms of both status and strength, they were second only to Solomon.Even the legendary Martial God wouldn't stand a chance against the combined strength of these eight individuals.They coordinated seamlessly, surrounding Woody and launching a flurry of fierce attacks from all directions.If it were someone else, they would have been torn apart by them.Woody remained calm, letting his mind wander for a m

    In the darkness, countless shadows darted back and forth.When they clearly saw that the gateway, which symbolized the Martial Arts Union, had been destroyed and was now nothing more than a pile of rubble, they were immediately filled with rage."Who dared to be so bold and fearless!""How dare you tear down the Martial Arts Union's gate? You're asking for trouble.""Whoever it is, they're definitely not a good person. Let's deal with them thoroughly first and ask questions later!"A crowd filled with anger saw what appeared to be a figure standing in front of the ruins."Hey kid, did you see who did it?"A sharp-eyed person noticed that the figure was a young man and immediately started questioning him."I'm warning you, this situation is serious. You need to tell everything you've seen, or else you'll face the consequences."Woody stood calmly and said, "I saw it.""Come on, who is it?" a group of people demanded in unison.Woody said calmly, "That's me!""What?!"The gr

    Rudolf immediately became anxious. He shielded his granddaughter, Penny, while loudly rebuking, "Mr. Edwards, is this really how your Martial Arts Union treats guests? If word gets out, we won't be afraid of becoming the laughingstock of our peers in the martial arts community!"Solomon was completely unfazed. "You think you're worthy of being called guests?"Faced with a large group of people who were eyeing them aggressively, the three of them were no match at all.It was quickly dealt with!"Solomon, aren't you worried that Mr. Snider's disciple, Woody, will come looking for trouble if you do this?" Rudolf shouted loudly while struggling.Solomon couldn’t care less. “If he dares to come, I will make sure he gets a taste of being a prisoner! The person you were taught by is no good, so it's likely you won't be any better. It's fitting that you pay off your teacher's debt. Let both the old man and you face the consequences together!"What's all the fuss about Woody? He's just a

    To be honest, Woody was quite intrigued.Every time he got into a scuffle with the underlings, he couldn't help but deeply miss Alexia.The esteemed Princess of the Epochal Realm was clearly being used by him as a henchman.The key point is that Alexia wasn't upset at all; instead, she was quite happy to help."No way."Reason overcame impulse, and Woody frowned as he said, "You have to stay at home. Only then can I be at ease."Alexia's expression fell. "Alright then!"Woody laughed and said, "You're being so obedient, I must reward you for that.""What kind of reward?" Her ears perked up with excitement, and her eyes were sparkling.Woody pulled a serpent's core of his pocket and said, "I promised you a gift earlier, and now I'm making good on that promise."Alexia's eyes lit up with excitement again. "The serpent's inner core!"In the past, she would not have paid any attention to the inner core of this quality.Every extra look is an insult to the title "Princess of the

    Edwin was, of course, unconvinced! As the teacher, he had failed, but the student had succeeded on the first try. If it wasn't sheer luck, then what was it? Woody didn't respond and picked up a second heavenly crystal. Moments later, he succeeded again! Edwin's eyes widened in amazement, as though he witnessed something truly extraordinary. Meanwhile, the admiration on Alexia's face skyrocketed. "Try it again!" Edwin was still unwilling to accept it. This time, Woody didn't humor him and directly put away the remaining heavenly crystals. "What's the meaning of this?" Edwin widened his eyes. Woody stood up to leave and without looking back, he said, "Thanks!""Wait, are you sure you've fully mastered it?"Edwin hurried after him and said, "What if something goes wrong? I can help you figure it out!""No need. If my master believes he's fine, then he's definitely going to be fine," Alexia said, blocking the old man and speaking with solemn assurance. At that moment, Edwin's

    Edwin stiffened his neck, trying to maintain a normal expression to cover up his embarrassment as his earlier demonstration had ended in failure. Although he knew the method, his lack of practice over the years had led to a mistake, which was understandable.""Ha..." Alexia let out a big yawn, her eyelids feeling as though they were weighed down by a thousand pounds; she was getting sleepy!Edwin's lengthy lecture had successfully bored her into a drowsy state. As for the later parts of the lesson, it didn't register in her mind at all; everything he said went in one ear and out the other, leaving no trace behind. "Carry on…"Alexia stretched lazily signaling for the two of them to continue without being affected by her. This left Edwin feeling utterly defeated! He felt as though he had been slapped in the face! Putting a student to sleep was already embarrassing enough, but to make matters worse, his demonstration had also failed. "It's fine, let me try." Woody volunteered.
