Celeste smiled and approached Jayden. She said softly and gently, "Mr. Stallone, you don't have to be discouraged. Keep going!"However, Jayden couldn't help feeling like she was smiling scornfully at him."Mr. Sadler, you— What's going on?" Jayden asked grimly when he returned to his seat, red in the face."Uh… well, everyone makes mistakes. Don't take it to heart, Mr. Stallone. We'll win it back in a jiffy," Joshua said very awkwardly. He had turned red."The next auction item is a painting called 'The King's Son.'" Celeste smiled and gestured toward the stage. "The King's Son" was then pushed out from backstage."Mr. Sadler, what do you think of this painting?" Jayden asked, staring nervously at Joshua.Joshua had been rattled by his failure. If he failed again, he would lose this job, which had an annual salary of 80 million. Not only that, his reputation in the antiques industry would be ruined overnight."Do you even have to ask? 'The King's Son' is a national treasure. Ho

"Damn! Mr. Northman was going for the beauty all along!""That's a classic example of someone who prizes love over his career."The crowd wasn't the only ones buzzing with speculation. Even Jayden and Lucian had slapped their thighs in regret.There was no one as beautiful as Cecilia in the whole of Sartvale or even in Harrenville. If they had known that this would happen, they would've fought for the fake painting, even if they had to lose half of the Stallones' shops.Zane was entranced by Cecilia's beauty. He forgot that he had just spent 35 million on buying a counterfeit item."Ms. Lucox, is your painting the legendary 'The King's Son'?" Celeste asked, smiling.Even Celeste couldn't help glancing admiringly at Cecilia. The gods were so unfair. How could she look so beautiful and enchanting? Celeste was rather jealous. "Congratulations. You are very lucky. This painting is authentic." Cecilia's melodious voice echoed through the entire hall.Silence fell in the hall. One

Sebastian knew the history of "The King's Son" very well!It was one of the authentic items in the collection of Belinda Dawson, who was one of the most vicious members of the Janover Lucox family!Belinda was the current head of the Lucox family, and she was a legend among the Nine Orders, Eighteen Principles and Thirty-Six Sects. Cecilia must be her daughter. Although Sebastian didn't know why Belinda had sent 'The King's Son' to Sartvale, the Northmans must not take it!"Mr. Ballard, what do you mean by that?""You have to give it back, and you've got to do it with a smile on your face," Sebastian said seriously.When Zane heard Sebastian, he frowned uncomprehendingly. Although a million questions were running through his mind, he dared not ask anything."What's more important to you, your life or your money?" Sebastian asked, smiling.Zane immediately came back to his senses. Someone who could own a national treasure like the painting would not be an ordinary person. Alt

"Young people just aren't as reliable. He probably just got lucky with 'The King's Son.'"Most people began criticizing Sebastian again. They thought that he had just gotten lucky when he got Zane to bid for "The King's Son", and that he hadn't done it based on his skill at all.However, a middle-aged man sitting behind Zane and Sebastian had heard everything that Sebastian had said to Zane.Ever since Sebastian had made Zane bid for 'The King's Son', the middle-aged man had been watching Sebastian very closely.He had even nudged his chair forward so that he could press his ear against the backs of their chairs. When the result of the auction item was revealed once more, the middle-aged man was flabbergasted.He was the only one who knew that Sebastian had recognized it for what it was and that he knew more than anyone there. The bronze horse was unlucky, which was why he had told Zane not to get it. As for Elton, whom Sebastian had mentioned, the man wasn't interested at all.

Sebastian had immediately realized that it wasn't an ordinary antique. It was an ancient, sacred object, just like the Sky Devouring Bottle. It was the Mirror of Rain!Sebastian had already gotten the Healer's Needles and the Sky Devouring Bottle. If he could get the Mirror of Rain, he would be able to make a huge breakthrough with his skills in the mystic arts and in the Way of Wisdom. He could also use the three sacred objects to bring people back from the dead.He had to get the ancient mirror."The starting price for this item is 500 thousand with each bid increasing by increments of 50 thousand dollars. Please begin the bidding!" As soon as Celeste finished, a man in the corner who was raising his sign for the first time suddenly said, "One million!"Everyone turned to look. To most people, the item onstage was the most worthless one out of all the auction items from that day. Even Joshua estimated that it would not be worth more than 800 thousand. It was clear that Seba

"Thank you, sir." Sebastian didn't tell Archibald the truth. Secret arts like this were recorded extensively in the legacies of the Sacred Medicine Society, but he would only make Archibald regret auctioning off the mirror if he were to tell him the secret.Sebastian said goodbye to him and sat back down, holding the Book of the Mirror of Rain and the ancient bronze mirror."Mr. Ballard, this book appears to also be an antique," Zane said, staring at the Book of the Mirror of Rain that Sebastian was holding.The book was made of paper as well, but it was different from modern paper. It looked like linen, and it was the kind of paper that had gone out of use after the Torren Era. The book had probably been made even before the Torren Era.Sebastian glanced at the yellowing pages and said to Zane, "This book has a history of at least 1000 years. However, the contents of this book will only lead those who read it astray."Archibald had given it to Sebastian, so he wasn't planning t

The manager almost fainted with fright. His knees buckled, and he leaned in close to Jayden and said, "Mr. Stallone, you can't ask about that woman and her background! Even our boss treats her as an esteemed guest. I'm just a worker here. I don't have the courage to ask about her."Jayden couldn't help frowning. He looked up at the VIP area on the second floor.He saw Cecilia sitting opposite a middle-aged man in his 40s. They were sipping tea. The middle-aged man was Colin Holmes, the owner of the auction hall.Jayden stuck out his tongue when he saw how polite Colin was being to Cecilia. He immediately gave up on his plan. People of that kind of status and influence were out of his league. If he wasn't careful, he could get the Stallones in trouble."Get lost!" Jayden waved a hand at the manager impatiently.The manager hastily stood up and left the auction.When he got to the door, he turned and glared at Jayden. He said icily, "What the heck! Damn, a coward like you should

Lucian hastily said, "Jayden, how could that be? If you can tell that it's a full emerald at once, would there be any need to auction it? They might as well give it a clear price tag. It would fetch more money!"Even a layman could tell that the geode's size and the green flecks on its surface would make it worth at least 1.5 billion!However, the starting price was only 80 million. Even if someone had a good feeling about it, they would only spend two or three hundred million at most. Was the seller an idiot?"Mr. Stallone, Mr. Wolsey is right. This geode can't be a full emerald. It's very likely to be defective!" Joshua agreed with everyone else. There might not be any emeralds inside it at all."Raise your sign! This is a full emerald, and it's an AAA quality emerald!" Sebastian said in Zane's ear.The moment he had seen the geode, Sebastian's eyes lit up. It would be possible to lay the spiritual energy circle at the sanatorium!Zane's eyes bulged. If the geode really was a
