Chapter 1642 – The Lower Realms’ Rage
*****For a moment, nearly everyone in the Lower Realm seemed to lose the ability to react.They had watched Xavier win the first item.Then he had casually taken the second.And now, with the Seven-Star Phoenix Earrings, he had gone from $350,000 to an astonishing $800,000 in a single bid, effectively doubling the previous price without even blinking.The entire Lower Realm fell into an awkward silence.The earrings were undeniably valuable. For lower-ranked cultivators, their ability to detect hostile killing intent within twenty feet could be an incredibly useful advantage, especially in a world where ambushes and assassination attempts were hardly rare.The additional ability to reduce mental fatigue only made them more appealing.But even with those benefits, most people believed the earrings were worth around half a million dollars at most.Yet Xavier had just thrown $800,000 onto the table as though he were buying a cup of coffee.It was enough to make people question whether m
Chapter 1641 – ‘My Wife Needs This Even More’
*****Xavier studied the two pairs for another moment before making his decision.The thought of his father immediately brought a faint trace of guilt to his heart.Since returning from prison, he had been so occupied with everything that had happened around him that he hadn't properly compensated for the years he had been absent.He hadn't given either of his parents a single meaningful gift since his return, and when he thought about it more carefully, he realized something even more embarrassing.He had never given his in-laws a gift either.‘Well, I suppose I can make up for both my father and father-in-law at once.’A faint smile tugged at his lips.“The starting price for the two pairs is $95,000,” the auctioneer announced.The moment her voice fell, bidding cards began rising throughout the Lower Realm.“$100,000!”“I bid $110,000!”“$120,000! It’s mine!”The competition quickly became lively.Men who had been sitting casually moments earlier suddenly leaned forward, while seve
Chapter 1640 – Second Item
*****“He actually still dares to bid?”“Doesn't he realize what kind of trouble he's in?”“What a complete waste of money. He'll probably die before the night is over, and he's still spending hundreds of thousands on accessories.”The woman who had nearly won the hairpin looked at Xavier with undisguised annoyance, clearly unable to understand why someone who had already been marked for death would care about an auction item.Xavier, however, didn't even glance at her.His expression remained perfectly calm as he looked toward the Moonflower Jade Hairpin in the auctioneer's hand.He wasn't buying it for himself.He was already imagining it in Grace's hair.From his previous interactions with Grace, he had often noticed her constantly brushing loose strands away from her face and tucking them behind her ear.Her hair was naturally silky and soft, which made it beautiful, but that same softness meant it easily slipped loose no matter how carefully she arranged it.Whenever she became o
Chapter 1639 – Bidding
*****Resting delicately between the auctioneer's fingers was a slender white-jade hairpin, exquisitely carved into the shape of a blooming flower.The jade was so smooth and luminous that it seemed to possess a soft radiance of its own beneath the brilliant lights of the auction hall.Several women instinctively touched their own hair.Others exchanged excited whispers.For an instant, the earlier tension surrounding the auctioneer was forgotten.“The first item tonight is a women's accessory, the Moonflower Jade Hairpin.”The auctioneer's soothing voice once again filled the cruise ship.She held the hairpin slightly higher so everyone could see its delicate craftsmanship.“It is said to possess the ability to constantly keep the wearer's hair perfectly arranged. It can also slightly purify the spiritual energy in its surroundings and help maintain mental clarity during meditation.”Her final words caused another wave of interest to spread through the Lower Realm.The hairpin might
Chapter 1638 – The First Item
*****A moment of intense silence descended over the entire auction hall the instant the auctioneer’s final words faded into the air.No one reacted.Neither the people in the Lower Realm nor those seated in the private rooms of the Upper Realm took their eyes off the woman on the stage.For several seconds, the entire venue seemed to have forgotten how to breathe, with hundreds of gazes fixed on her in stunned silence.She was undoubtedly graceful, composed, and cold, possessing an elegance that made her seem almost detached from everyone around her.Yet beneath that refined demeanor was an arrogance so intense that it was impossible to overlook.She stood there as though she were not addressing some of the most influential and powerful people in the city but merely a gathering of ordinary guests whose presence barely registered in her eyes.That alone was enough to make several people uncomfortable.What truly shocked everyone, however, was the aura surrounding her.She was only a C
Chapter 1637 – The Auction Begins
*****Once Xavier finished reassuring Sage Myron and Mistress Ayra, he sank deeper into his seat and shut his eyes, shutting himself off from the countless murmurs and curious gazes surrounding him.The commotion in the lower realm continued, but none of it seemed worthy of his attention. As far as Xavier was concerned, there was no reason to waste his energy reacting to people who had already decided what they thought of him.He could still feel Matthew's murderous gaze coming from one of the rooms in the upper realm, along with the faint pressure of the hatred radiating from him, but Xavier simply ignored it.He didn't even bother looking up.His complete indifference quickly stupefied many of the attendees.“He actually dares to sleep?”“Does he have some kind of powerful backing?”“Pft. Unless whatever he is relying on is an A-rank fighter, it means nothing.”“Exactly. What could possibly protect him from Young Master Matthew?”“I don't care what anyone says. That guy is genuinely
