It was obvious that it was one of the followers of the Prince Yu.

Jingjing was also thinking the same thing, and she couldn't quite believe that he would throw it out, so she looked at him and then at the follower.

A layer of icy coldness covered the adamantine prince's eyes, which were always smiling like spring water.

Without even looking at the follower, his fingers rapped on the table in an irregular fashion. He then coldly spoke, "Do you not believe what I have said?"

Finished speaking, she cast a sidelong glance at Jingjing, "Since it's something no one wants, what's the use of keeping it? I lost it! "

The expression on Jingjing's face changed slightly. From the looks of it, this person really didn't seem like he was joking.

He couldn't help but look at Li Yue and say in a low voice, "This … Why did you lose it? It's good to sell it to someone else as well. "

Before he could say anything, Li Yue waved his hand at the manservant, pointed at Jingjing and said, "Give it to her."

"Hmm?" Jing Jing replied with a strange "En" as she looked at Li Yue in confusion.

Under the hesitant gaze of the servant, Li Yue's jade-green eyes looked straight at the Duke of Yu, "What's wrong?" What I said, can't be counted? "

Finished speaking, he pointed at Jingjing and said, "Since he's willing to give it to you, then take it, it's not worth taking it."

As he spoke, he watched as the attendant placed the items in front of Jingjing.

While admiring the experience in Jingjing's eyes, he actually felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction. He turned around and said to the Duke of Yu, "But don't expect too much from it."

"Too much?" Jing Jing raised her gaze reluctantly from the jewelry, and asked in confusion.

Li Yue shook his head and didn't explain any further. Jing Jing Jing knew he didn't want to say it, so she didn't ask any further.

What he didn't know was that this seemingly simple gift was a favor to be repaid.

However, Jingjing didn't know that the favor had to be returned to her.

By the time Jingjing had finished appreciating the sets of jewelry, the auction had already reached its end.

Jingjing was delighted to find that this set of jewelry actually suited her a lot.

Moreover, the strangest thing was that the red color matched the name "Xiahou Yeshi" perfectly. It was just right for her to wear.

If he added on with the cloth he bought tonight, it would be so beautiful when he made clothes.

Jingjing thought in her beautiful manner. She had already thought about the style of her clothes and the style of her hair.

While he was daydreaming, he saw that Xiao Xin had already stood up.

He looked around and said softly, "Tonight, the final item to be used as the finale is not to be found anywhere."

She looked around in satisfaction and said, "I'm sure all the guests have guessed it. The last item on auction tonight is …"

Her voice paused, as if she was not surprised by the silence.

However, after everyone was satisfied, they slowly enunciated each word clearly, "That's right, it's the Wordless Heavenly Book!"

"Hua …"

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire audience went into an uproar.

This sound was not one bit weaker than the sound of the jewelry set from before.

After all, other people did not know about the Wordless Book, Purple Chen Yu Yi, and the Eastern Tomb Purple Jade Pendant, but the people present did not know much about it.

The Wordless Heavenly Book was always mysterious. Even if these people got their hands on it, they would have to hand it over to the Western Region King.

However, things were different now. An instance dungeon had appeared out of nowhere.

Xiao Xin didn't say what was inside.

If they fought back, it wouldn't just be a matter of face.

He would also feel that his status would increase.

"Of course, it's the wordless heavenly book instance dungeon!" Xiao Xin said in a loud voice after the crowd's discussion gradually died down.

Once he said this, another small commotion broke out.

After receiving their confirmation, everyone was eager to give it a try.

It had to be known that buying the wordless heavenly book's instance dungeon was legal.

However, everyone present was starting to feel a bit afraid.

One had to know that there was an unwritten rule in the Tassel Pavilion, but the highest quality goods were the most expensive.

The starting price was something that some people would never be able to reach in their entire lives.

Therefore, some people were determined to get their hands on the book, while others felt that they might not have the chance to.

If a single set of jewelry was sold for sixty thousand taels, then the Wordless Book would surely be selling for an even higher price.

Perhaps the starting price would be an astronomical figure.

"Then, this servant will not introduce any more!"

Xiao Xin raised her voice and scanned the crowd. She smiled and said, "The Wordless Heavenly Book starts with a price of thirty thousand taels!"

"Whooosh."

Someone let out a breath and thought, "Although it's not cheap, but …" "It's not too expensive, but it's still acceptable."

Those who had thought that they had no chance of getting the Heavenly Tome Monolith began to stir, ready to bid again.

"Guests, don't worry …"

However, Xiao Xin was in no hurry to start bidding. She did not say how much the price would be either.

He only said loudly, "The Wordless Heavenly Book starts with thirty thousand gold. Every competition, it starts with five thousand gold —"

The scene was silent for a while, and after a long time, no one made a bid.

Then, a big commotion broke out.

One tael of gold was equal to ten taels of silver …

This... How many people in the world could afford it?

And, the price was five thousand taels of gold in one bid.

In other words, if he didn't call out once, he would have to add 5,000 gold, which was 50,000 silver …

How many sets of jewelry were in Jingjing's hands?

After a long time, no one dared to speak.

On the stage, Xiao Xin seemed to be in no hurry.

He just smiled and looked around at the guests who were sitting upstairs.

It looked like he was waiting for something.

Jingjing glanced at the two men beside her, and saw that both of them had an expression that seemed to say "it has nothing to do with me".

After a moment of silence, a man's voice coldly came from the elegant table on the right side of the second floor.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a man in a mask sitting by himself in the direction of the voice.

When Jingjing first saw him, she almost thought he was the masked man she knew.

But upon closer inspection, he didn't notice that there was a blood jade ring on his finger.

Moreover, the shape and color of his mask were also different.

Beside him was a fat guy with his head bowed. He looked like he was either a follower or a bodyguard.

Everyone had at least one or two couples on their tables.

He was the only one who sat there alone. He indifferently cast his gaze onto the teacup as he softly said those words.

Jingjing suddenly revealed a familiar feeling …

Why does this person look so much like a person?

Who does he look like …

That's right, Nangong Xiu.

A cold and devilish aura was also emanating from his body.

Even the fatty beside him looked very familiar.

This fatty … Where have I seen it?

Oh, that's right, he was very similar to the fatty who came to apply for the guard academy that day.

However, if one looked carefully, one wouldn't even think of it. It was just that their body shape was a bit similar.

Jing Jing's heart suddenly jumped.

Could the man who called out the price really be Nangong Xiu?

Jingjing turned her head and heard the Duke of Yu's laughter beside her as she said, "I know why you didn't bid. I don't want to compete for this Wordless Book anymore."

These words were naturally directed towards Li Yue.

Li Yue closed the blue and white porcelain bowl in his hand and suddenly smiled. He asked, "Who said I'm not qualified?"

The expression on the Prince Yu's face changed slightly as he snapped his fingers, facing Steward Zheng outside.

Manager Zheng nodded his head and shouted to the people downstairs, "My master is willing to pay — 40,000 taels!"

At first, everyone's eyes were locked onto the man on the second floor, but after hearing someone bid, they couldn't help but look over.

It was a pity that the people sitting in the private room on the third floor could not see it clearly.

Everyone began to ponder in their hearts.

The cloth and jewellery that he had brought with him was the best auction item outside of the Wordless Heavenly Book. They were all taken by the guests in this private room.

Now, they were bidding on Wordless Heavenly Book, and it was indeed rich.

Everyone was guessing who exactly this esteemed guest was.

Furthermore, the sharp-eyed guests could clearly see that the Tassel Pavilion Master, Lady Xin Xin, had been waiting on him just a moment ago.

Therefore, this esteemed guest was surely not simple.

Jing Jing felt that everyone's gaze was on her. Even the masked man on the second floor slightly turned his head to look in her direction.

Only the fat man beside him was silent, with his head lowered, looking like a dutiful follower. He was not the least bit curious about what was happening around him, only paying attention to his master's movements.

"A VIP on the third floor bids 40,000 taels, is there any higher bid?"

Xiao Xin, who was on the stage, pointed at Li Yue and the others and asked loudly.

Below the stage, there was silence again.

This time, everyone swiped their gazes towards the masked man on the second floor.

The people here ate and drank to their heart's content to find something to pass the time and loneliness.

The heart of gossip was the most heavy.

Of course, they wanted to know if they would compete.

The masked man had yet to make a bid. He lowered his head, seemingly pondering and weighing his options.

The Prince Yu chuckled and said, "I understand. You're here to lure him out, right?"

Li Yue smiled without saying a word, leaving Jingjing baffled.

After pondering for a moment, he finally understood the situation.

For the sake of luring them out, it would naturally be Nangong Xiu.

In other words, most likely, the person who bid was really Nangong Xiu?

Thinking to this point, Jingjing couldn't help but cast her gaze down.

He silently praised her in his heart. Senior sister was indeed sunny. The man she sought after was indeed very cool and had a unique personality.

Moreover, it looked like he was very tall.

"Li Yue, don't tell me that the Wordless Heavenly Book is actually you …"

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by a fierce glance from Li Yue.

The Prince Yu didn't get angry. He just kept his mouth shut.

"Forty-five thousand liang —" The cold voice downstairs sounded clearer.

Jingjing looked on with a face of envy, thinking in her heart, Senior Sister's man, he really has a lot of money!

The moment he called out the price, Jingjing couldn't help but turn to look at Li Yue. She wanted to know how much she would bid and if she would bid.

Her current thoughts were very strange.

He wanted to make Li Yue scream, but he didn't want his to cry out.

On one hand, she was more inclined towards her senior sister.

Furthermore, through Nangong Xiu, he wanted to get news of his senior as soon as possible so that he could see her and return to the twenty-first century.

On the other hand, she hoped that Li Yue was not inferior to his senior's man.
