"I think everyone has clearly seen the value of the Heavenly Son Sword. The sword's edge has been sharpened, and everyone is well aware of its origins. Let's not talk too much about it. The starting price for the Heavenly Son Sword is 10 million."

"This price is worth it."

"Even if this Heavenly Sword is an absolute imitation, it's still worth ten million."

Ten million was a very rare amount in this level of auction, so many people felt that even if nothing was taken into account, it would still be worth it.

"Twelve million." The silver-haired old man was the first to raise his board and reveal his price. Jiang Liu'er hesitated but did not say anything.

The value of this sword was something that everyone present understood. The old man's price was not a certainty, so there was no need for him to waste time arguing with him.

Moreover, he would never have thought that the old man was speaking up for him.

"I'll help you bid for this Heavenly Son Sword. It'll save you a lot of trouble." The old man lowered his voice and reminded Jiang Liu'er.

Jiang Liu'er didn't have much to say to the old man. Everyone knew some things.

Jiang Liu'er wasn't very clear about the old man's identity and background, but from the short time he had with him, it seemed that the old man was definitely not a small figure in the world of antiques.

With an old man helping him, this Heavenly Son Sword must have had twice the results with half the effort.

Yang Xiaodong wasn't too concerned about the auction of the previous few treasures. After all, they didn't have much to do with her, and after hearing what Jiang Liu'er said about giving this to Ming Xuan's father, she couldn't help being concerned about it.

Seeing the tense atmosphere, she unconsciously grabbed onto the corner of Jiang Liu'er's clothes that was sitting beside her.

Jiang Liu'er felt the corner of her shirt move. She lowered her head and saw Yang Xiaodong's nervous fingers and then Yang Xiaodong. This little girl was biting the corner of her lips and frowning as her eyes swept across everyone.

Jiang Liu'er remained silent, grabbed Yang Xiaodong's hand and squeezed it.

Yang Xiaotong felt her hand being grabbed. She was shocked. She tried to struggle free but found that the hand holding her was just squeezing her hand to loosen her grip.

She turned her head to look at Jiang Liu'er. Jiang Liu'er's gaze lightly landed on the host's body, as if the action just now wasn't done by him.

Yang Xiaotong had a different feeling in her heart, but her attention was diverted by a woman's voice.

"Fifteen million." The woman who spoke was the winner of the previous treasure. The difference was that a man wearing a suit with a serious expression was sitting beside the woman.

Jiang Liu'er suddenly felt that this auction had become very interesting, not just because of this Heavenly Son Sword, but also because of this sexy lady.

The woman's gaze landed on Jiang Liu'er's side. After a short pause, she quietly left, not allowing anyone to see her except for Jiang Liu'er.

Jiang Liu'er guessed the identity of the woman, but she was a bit brainless. After all, she was someone who suddenly appeared, so how could he know so much about her?

Of course, he also believed that women would be interested in his identity.

"Fifteen million and ten thousand." The old man frowned, but he did not stop Jiang Liu'er.

Although with his status, it would be faster and easier for this treasure to enter Jiang Liu'er's pocket, it was hard for him to guess what other thoughts Jiang Liu'er had.

An auction was not just about business, it was also about psychological warfare and business.

If the auction goes well and he is able to let Bo Le see the thousand li horse in the arena, he would naturally not have to worry about his future path of money.

"Sixteen million." The light smile on the corner of the woman's mouth suddenly widened a few times. There was an indescribable charm to the raised corner of her mouth, causing those who cast their gaze away to be unable to shift their gaze away.

The calm man beside the woman lowered his head and whispered something into her earlobe. The woman nodded and patted his hand on her thigh.

This tiny movement caused Jiang Liu'er to be a bit concerned. Everyone's actions could betray his inner world, and no one was an exception.

The police used such physical actions to determine if the bad guy was lying, while River Child used such actions to determine the relationship between the woman and the man.

"Sixteen million and ten thousand." If it was any other opponent bidding against like Jiang Liu'er, they would be angered to the point of bursting, while the woman was different. She always wore a enigmatic smile, as if she didn't care about the matter at all.

The price of the Heavenly Son Sword stopped at 160.1 million, everyone held their breath as they stared at this man and woman.

Jiang Liu'er and the sexy lady had a calm and composed appearance. The auction had already reached a white-hot point, causing the host to become excited.

"The Heavenly Son Sword is indeed the Heavenly Son Sword. Its charm is unstoppable just like that. 16 million and 10 thousand going once …"

In the quiet auction house, every pair of eyes was fixated on the hammer in the host's hand. The moment the hammer landed, the deal would be completed, and the Heaven's Son Sword that could shake the world would be placed in River Er's pocket.

No one would have expected that Jiang Liu'er or this girl was willing to buy the Heavenly Son Sword, much less the fact that the price would be raised that high.

"Twenty-five million."

For this priceless antique, twenty-five million was definitely not the upper limit, but it was already considered quite expensive. Although there were bound to be some rich people who were worth hundreds of millions in the auction, everyone had their own prices for these treasures in their hearts. Once they exceeded the price range, they would give up.

However, this woman was like a bottomless pit, so that Jiang Liu'er couldn't see her clearly.

"Twenty-five million!" The host excitedly repeated the bid given by the woman beside him, so excited that even his voice was a little out of tune.

Behind this price was naturally River'er's alternative way of raising the price.

"Twenty-five million and ten thousand." His indifferent voice seemed to be just as everyone had expected. Many of them had already hung up a smile on their faces, wanting to see who would win this' Bloody Rain 'auction.

The woman and Jiang Liu'er looked at each other for a brief moment before they raised their hands and nodded. This small action meant that they were willing to give up.

Jiang Liu'er also nodded her head slightly. She slightly bent her index finger and middle finger and tapped the surface of her palm, expressing her gratitude for this action.

After the auctioneer announced the bid of three hundred and twenty-five million three times, he placed the hammer down and handed the documents over to Jiang Liu`er, along with the envious and admiring gazes of all the participants.

The auction ended with the final item. The old man said that Jiang Liu'er could leave, but Jiang Liu'er was interested and wanted to take a look.

On the other hand, Yang Xiaotong couldn't stay there any longer. After all, she was a girl, and she was not interested in such things. Since Jiang Liu'er had already bought the things she needed, there was no need for her to stay here any longer.

"It's not early anymore. I want to go back."

Jiang Liu'er naturally knew that Yang Xiaotong was leaving and did not keep her. She made a symbolic gesture to send her away, but she was naturally rejected.

As Yang Xiaotong walked away, the old man started gossiping.

"Lad, do you like this girl?"

Jiang Liu'er coughed twice. He almost choked on his saliva, "For the sake of being disrespectful, for the sake of being disrespectful to the sake of the elderly!" As he said this, he couldn't hold back his laughter. Was he acting too much? Then why did this old man see that Yang Xiaotong did not react?

"Haha, it's fine, it's fine. Young people, it's unavoidable for them to love each other, but …" "Seems like this little girl doesn't have much interest in you."

This old man was also straightforward, leaving Jiang Liu'er speechless. She could only nod dejectedly, making it difficult for him. After so long, all of her hard work was in vain. Mingxuan was just a fuerdai, and Yang Xiaodong was immediately moved.

In this era where he fought for a father, he did not have a son. If he had a rich father, what would happen to him? With his identity as a rich second generation official, he was afraid that there were already many beauties by his side.

"Do you want me to exchange two blows with you?" The old man raised an eyebrow and chuckled, "You must know that when I was young, I fought with Chu Liuxiang. Wherever I went, all the women would prostrate themselves at my feet."

"Pfft." Jiang Liu'er couldn't hold back her laughter. This old man was really shameless, he could even say something like that.

However, although the old man was old, his hair was white, his face had wrinkles, and there were bags under his eyes, his appearance was indeed not bad. When he was young, he should have been the same as Jiang Liu'er, a handsome young man.

"Forget about it. I'm not used to your old-fashioned moves. Chasing girls is full of courage and skin. I believe I can do it."

Jiang Liu'er didn't believe the old tricks of this old man. Girls these days were all very realistic, not to mention the fact that they had no money, even if you gave the old man to the girl you loved, it would still be worth it for those rich second generation girls.

"Then forget it. Oh right, youngster, why are you suddenly interested in this Exchange?" Although the old man often attended auctions, he did not participate in too many meetings. He was not good at showing off his smiling face to these merchants, and he did not have the heart to do so.

"I have."

Jiang Liu'er didn't tell the old man what she had intended to do, saying too much was too much. Moreover, it was purely because of that sexy woman just now. If she told the old man this, it wouldn't be good either.

The old man briefly explained to Jiang Liu'er the etiquette needed to know about the meeting before leaving in a hurry. Jiang Liu'er didn't stay any longer and wandered around the meeting by herself.

Even though it was called an exchange meeting, it was actually similar to the parties for the rich upper class. Everyone was eating, drinking, and chatting in the pre-arranged area, strengthening the people they needed and protecting their own interests.
