Chapter 324

After Gabriel spoke, all 12 people in the two rows of seats behind him stood up.

The aura of the 12 stage-eight great-grandmasters explosively surged.

Gabriel did not know Nash. He just wanted to target Jay.

Jay’s body trembled with anger.

His fists were clenched, and his eyes were bloodshot.

The elder from the Profound Reality Realm who sat next to him said in a low voice, “Mr. Jay… bear with it…”

Although they had someone from the Profound Reality Realm, their opponent had too many skilled great-grandmasters. Even if they succeeded in killing them, it would still be a pyrrhic victory.

The Kleins had recently lost four experts from the Profound Reality Realm, so not many were left with their families. If anything were to happen to them again, the Kleins’ ranking would fall behind.

“Lowe, Zuniga, you better watch your back…”

Jay spat out the words and turned around to leave.

Nash said with a face full of regret, “What a pity…”

Xeno’s eyelids twitched wildly.

He thought to himself, ‘Doesn’t this mean that Mr. Nash is practically begging for Jay to make a move?’

Melody glanced at Nash. “The Kleins place great emphasis on their bloodline. If something were to happen to their direct descendants, they’d kill you at all costs… Do you think that you can take them on with your current skill set?”

Finn boasted, “So what? Nash has two scrolls from the Heavenly Martial Arts Order!”

Melody lost her balance and almost fell off her chair.

As the daughter of the richest man in Goldenfalls and an expert in the Profound Reality Realm, she had naturally heard of the Heavenly Martial Arts Order.

Once it was commanded, all would surrender.

The fall of the Green Bamboo Association a few days ago was because Jonford had ordered a Heavenly Martial Arts Order.

When she came to a realization, her pupils shrank. “Did you command that Heavenly Martial Arts Order from before?”

The Green Bamboo Association was involved in the massacre of the Youngs, and now, they were exterminated. The incident happened in Jonford, so Nash must have been involved.

“How else would I have had the dignity to go to Young Gardens to pay homage to more than 300 members of the Young family?”

Nash admitted that the Green Bamboo Association was exterminated by him but did not mention the other two Heaven Martial Arts Orders.

His master had revealed that one of the other two orders was in the king’s possession.

The third one was not mentioned.

Nash suspected that it was with Francis, but he was not certain.

“Don’t use the Heavenly Martial Arts Order just because you want to, even if it’s against the Kleins!” Melody reminded him with a solemn expression.

“Alright!” Nash responded.

“Hello, sir, congratulations on obtaining the Map of Splendid Mountains and Rivers!”

The auctioneer came over with a beautiful woman wearing a silk dress.

The woman was holding a tray in her hands with a piece of satin spread on the tray. A beautiful painting of the map on top of it.

“Would you be paying by card… or bank transfer?”

The auctioneer was ecstatic.

It was ten billion dollars!

Today, the auction earned nearly one billion dollars in commissions.

Nash looked at Melody and said, “They’re asking you. Card or bank transfer?”

Melody took out a black card and muttered, “You’ve yet to say that I’m better than you… Also… I lent you this money, so you need to pay it back!”

Nash grinned, “It’s just ten billion dollars. When I get my inheritance from my great- grandfather, I’ll give you 20 billion dollars!”

The auctioneer’s lips twitched as he thought of a series of questions, ‘Just ten billion dollars? Repay her 20 billion dollars? Is this how people like them speak? What is 20 billion even worth to them?’

The richest man in Jonford had assets worth 100 billion dollars.

This was a result of 20 years of accumulation.

The Watsons’ annual revenue was about four billion dollars.

It would take them five years to earn 20 billion dollars.

“Deal!”

Only then did Melody confidently hand the card to the host.

Transferring such a huge sum of money had to be approved by the bank.

Artful Prosperity Auction House had investments from the bank, so it was not long after when Melody received a call to verify the transaction.

After confirming that the information was correct, Melody received a text message to confirm the change in balance./

The auctioneer took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Nash. “Mr. Calcraft,

this is my business card… If you need anything in the future, you can contact me at any time!”

Nash took the business card and picked up the Map of Splendid Mountains and Rivers.

A faint light flashed in the depths of his eyes. He noticed that there was a thin layer of animal skin mounted on the back of the painting. He realized that there was a shadow on a part of it.

“Let’s go!”
