Chapter 451

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.

"You can't apply the rules abroad in our local auction." Composed and confident, Mabel answered, "In Draconia, as soon as the payment is made and the goods are delivered, the transaction is considered completed in the antiquity industry. "There is no refund or exchange."Even if it is discovered later on that the item is fake, it's solely the fault of the buyer for having bad judgment, and they have to deal with it. There has never been the possibility of a refund."Many present are experienced and knowledgeable in this industry. This rule has always been prevalent. Ask them if you don't believe me."People leaned in close to each other as they started to discuss. This was indeed a regulation unique to Draconia. Even if the seller deliberately sold a fake item, there was no possibility of a refund.With this reasoning, Mabel was unafraid.However, Michael sniggered and scoffed, "If there's an unreasonable point about that so-called regulation, then it should be changed! Many o

"Mr. George, what do you mean?" Lionel's face turned solemn. "You may have been the one who invited us, but that doesn't mean that we have to play according to your rules. "You can't change our principles, professionalism, nor the sense of justice we were born with."Before Theo could rebut, David interjected loudly, "Gentlemen, why don't you work for me instead? I'll double the price whatever Mr. George is paying you. "Of course, I know you're not avaricious people. But the main thing is that Mr. George is a fool who isn't worthy of your expertise.""David Goldblum, you've crossed the line!" Theo snapped.At the next second, Macarius went to David's side and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Goldblum. We're more than happy to work for you."Lionel quickly added, "Mr. Davis is right. I'm at your service, Mr. Goldblum."Everyone was taken aback at how quickly Macarius and Lionel had betrayed Theo.In truth, Macarius and Lionel had been in cahoots with the Goldblums since

Both sides were at a stalemate, and the atmosphere was so tense that a fight was about to break out at any time. Hence, a voice speaking at this time was rather abrupt.Once again, everyone looked for the source of the voice. Wasn't that the fool who just spent six million dollars on a dead man's item? Puzzled, they wondered what Woody was up to this time. They remembered that Woody was at odds with Macarius and Lionel before the auction began and had also made himself an enemy of David. But now that David and the organizer were having a stand-off, it was the best time for him to make an escape. But instead of doing that, he was hanging around.And not only did he hang around, but he even shouted out loud, as though worried that his enemies had forgotten about him. He must have a death wish!But more importantly, the authorities in antiquity, including Macarius, Lionel, Michael, and the others, had confirmed that the Cosmic Night Pearl was a fake. In addition, there wa

Before David could realize what was happening, Woody snagged the Cosmic Night Pearl from him and started delightfully playing with it in his hands."Is this thing a real treasure?" he asked Alexia.Indeed, it was Alexia who'd asked him to buy it.The original words of the Princess of the Epochal Realm was, "Get this pearl regardless of the cost!"After checking the pearl several times, Woody couldn't find anything special about it and cast a sidelong glance at Snowy. He meant to tell her that he would spank her bottom badly if she was tricking him.Meanwhile, Snowy stared unblinkingly at the pearl in his hand. She said, "Don't worry, Master. The value of this pearl is far more than the total value of all the treasures on this ship."Again, Woody frowned and asked if she was telling the truth.Alexia replied, "I'm telling the truth! It's a Fox Spirit Elixir, the highest rank of treasure in the Fox Tribe. Judging from the quality, I reckon that only a Celestial Fox with cultivat

A bout of laughter broke out in the auction hall. David, especially, was laughing in exaggeration. He held his belly with both hands while his mouth was open so wide that his pharynx could be seen.It came as a pleasant surprise to him that Woody was taking over the worthless stone so willingly.As for the Swensons, he wasn't ready to let them off just because someone else had bought the stone.David's main aim here was to cause trouble, so he would continue to make a scene and create trouble for Mabel."Everyone, I can't wait to see it," he said amid his laughter.Macarius and Lionel were laughing their heads off too. They made it seem like Woody knew nothing about antiquity at all. And it also indirectly proved that Woody had bought the Epochal Seal simply because he liked it and not because he knew that it was a treasure. All in all, they were sure that the great power within the Epochal Seal was still intact.Michael snorted. "Lad, we're all ready to have our eyes opene
