The moment Liu Shiyi answered the call, a thousand words were condensed into one sentence.

"Are you OK?"

Hearing her anxious and concerned voice, Ye Chi nodded and said, "I encountered some trouble, but it has been resolved."

Liu Shiyi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I thought you really fell into the Rift World and couldn't get out!"

Ye Chi's brows furrowed slightly as he asked, "You went inside to look for me?"

Liu Shiyi said with lingering fear, "Yes, but luckily we came out early, otherwise we would have been in trouble if the Ye family had locked us inside!"

Ye Chi chuckled and said, "Luckily, I came out early too."

Liu Shiyi raised an eyebrow: "Why are you smiling so strangely?"

"Is there any?"

"Absolutely!"

A flash of inspiration crossed Liu Shiyi's mind, but she couldn't quite grasp it.

Ye Chi skipped over that topic and asked, "How's your role as principal going?"

Liu Shiyi sighed, "Are you done fighting? Let's talk when we meet!"

Ye Chi agreed, and the two met at the Eight Days Inn. After telling each other about their experiences, she hurriedly returned to Jiangcheng.

Walking through Hangzhou at night, Ye Chi asked for directions and headed straight for the auction.

He heard that the Langye Auction was very lively these days, so he took the opportunity to see it and cash out all the items in the ring.

The Langye Auction House was brightly lit, with neon lights flashing at night.

Ye Chi put on a mask and, led by a slender female waitress, arrived at the appraisal area.

"Guest, you should know our rules here: Langye Auction House does not accept items worth less than one million yuan."

The waitresses were dressed provocatively, and she knew that most of the customers here were not from wealthy families, but her deliberate reminders were like a disguised form of flattery.

She can both win the appreciation of her guests and skillfully avoid some embarrassing incidents.

Ye Chi nodded, took out a jar of wine, and said, "Take a look at this first."

"liquor?"

Seeing this, the young woman looked at him with a hint of doubt in her alluring eyes, but maintained her composure and said, "Please wait a moment, sir."

Strolling around.

After a few unsteady steps, an old man with a beard and wearing a monocle was brought over.

"Wow, this is something amazing!"

As soon as the old man approached, he moved very close, sniffing the sealed edge of the wine jar without any attempt to conceal it.

"A very strong aroma! It's a good vintage wine, but you've already opened it!"

This person seemed to have an extremely sensitive nose; he could pinpoint the problem with just a sniff, which surprised Ye Chi.

He did open the wine jar to check it at the time. Wouldn't that lower its value?

Seeing the change in Ye Chi's pupils, the old man chuckled and said, "Don't worry! I know it was recently opened. If you drink it in time, it won't have any effect!"

"I see." Ye Chi breathed a sigh of relief.

The old man smiled and waved, and the young woman came over carrying a large pile of sophisticated instruments.

First, the small jars are cleaned thoroughly, and then a special opening instrument is used to neatly lift the entire jar lid.

Upon seeing this, Ye Chi broke out in a cold sweat.

Are you that serious?

When the wine jar was opened, a strong aroma wafted out, as if the long-sealed door of an ancient house had been opened.

It has the rich aroma of time!

The old man's eyes widened in surprise!

The young woman covered her red lips in surprise!

Ye Chi was also momentarily stunned by the sight of the wide-open wine jar!

The rich aroma seemed to penetrate the walls in that instant, its fragrance seamlessly seeping into the nostrils of the people in the adjacent rooms!

Wow! What a rich and delicious flavor!

"It's wine! Top-quality wine!!"

"My God, this fragrance! I'm so lucky, so incredibly lucky!"

Under this aroma, connoisseurs of fine wine seem to transform into bewildered madmen, their nostrils twitching as they press themselves against the wall, inhaling deeply and repeatedly!

Just a moment later, a panicked cry came from the corridor!

"Whose wine is this! Whose wine is this, sir! I'd pay a million for a single cup!"

"He offers a million, I'll offer 1.5 million! And all I ask for is one drink!"

Hearing the commotion outside, Ye Chi was somewhat surprised by the value of the wine.

"Wow, it's worth that much?"

I couldn't help but be alarmed, because this jar of wine could easily be drunk a hundred or even a thousand cups!

The old man was finally awakened by the noise outside, and he said urgently:

"Guest, this wine is truly a rare and exquisite find! Just the aroma alone is like falling into a dreamlike cradle, leaving one softly and intoxicated, never to wake up again. How wonderful it would be to take a sip of this!"

Under Ye Chi's gaze, the old man swallowed hard and said, "Therefore, I have a favor to ask: I will buy this wine for ten billion. What do you say?"

One billion?

It is indeed a considerable sum. This small jar of wine looks like a top-quality product, but there are actually very few of them. If it were auctioned off, it would only fetch a maximum of one billion.

Ye Chi has acquired so many valuable things this time that he is so wealthy that he doesn't really care about them anymore.

"can."

“Thank you so much!”

The old man seemed to have received his most prized treasure. The moment Ye Chi nodded, he immediately used a wine spoon the size of a fingernail to pick up a tiny bit.

After drinking it...

"Hiss hiss hiss~~ Ah!!"

The old man made a seductive sound, as if he were making love!

"This is so comfortable! This trip to the Southern Territory was definitely worthwhile!"

The old man basked in his self-admiration for a while, then, under Ye Chi's gaze, finally said, "Go and call Yue'er over quickly, all my secret stash is with her!"

"Yes!"

The woman nodded, and a moment later, an extremely alluring voice rang out from outside the door.

"Grandpa, you're wasting money again!"

A woman with smooth brown hair, an oval face, and a voluptuous figure hidden beneath a pink cheongsam walked in.

She looked as if she were about to appear on some kind of show, dressed in an outfit complete with a red ribbon, her graceful steps resembling those of a beautiful concubine from ancient times.

"Moon...Grandpa only bought one jar of wine this time!" the old man said with a smile.

Xie Yue'er exclaimed in surprise, "Grandpa, I know you love wine, but this ten billion..."

Buying a jar for a billion dollars, even if it contains the finest nectar, is just too extravagant!

Xie Yue'er gently rubbed her forehead, but this was the first time the old man had been so enthusiastic.

"Hello, this card has one billion in it, and there is no password."

A snow-white arm stretched out, wrapped in dazzling white silk, exceptionally eye-catching.

Ye Chi took the card but didn't intend to get up. Instead, he continued, "Sir, could you please find another appraiser who can test sword stones?"

Swordstone?

Upon hearing this, the old man and Xie Yue'er exchanged a glance and raised their eyebrows!

Chapter 115 Priceless Sword Stone

"Moon, come here for a moment."

Even though the two walked away together without changing their expressions, Ye Chi still noticed something was off.

He sat upright, as if he could draw his knife at any moment.

The old man and his granddaughter walked to a corner, their faces somewhat solemn.

"If I'm not mistaken, this kid is probably right!"

Xie Yue'er's eyes flickered as she said, "Grandpa, that knife also matches those people's descriptions."

As one of the eight great families, the Xie family's Langye Auction House is not just a simple place to sell things.

They probably know more about everything that happened in the cracked world of Hangzhou than the Ye family, who were directly involved!

The old man pounded his fist on his hand and said slowly, "Moon, haven't you been complaining about not being able to become the Federation's number one white glove?"

"grandfather!"

Upon hearing this, Xie Yue'er's beautiful eyes widened in shock!

The first auctioneer is the first auctioneer, and this sword stone is a sword stone.

If Langye Auction House dares to accept it, and then makes a big fuss about it, not only Ye Chi, but even the Xie family will be dragged into the mess!

"The loss of a son in the Ye family is no joke!" Xie Yue'er wanted the old man to face reality.

Unexpectedly, the old man, with his shrewd calculations, said, "Moon, your heart is still too small."

“He possesses unparalleled talent in this era. Even Zhou Changxiong from the Western Frontier has placed his bet on him. It’s not too late for us to make our decision now!”
