Chapter 222: Chapter 222: The Finale Treasure Arrives_1

“Do I look like I have a problem?” Xu Fan said with a slight smile, speaking lightly.

“Damn it, could those two have been plants? Their acting was so good, they even fooled me,” Zhao Dong complained somewhat resentfully.

Having said that, he recklessly reached for the Jade Token in Xu Fan’s hand, muttering, “Let me touch it too, and see if the ghost story about this Jade Token is just made up.”

Xu Fan didn’t dodge, a sly smile flashing across his lips.

The moment Zhao Dong’s hand touched the Jade Token, his complexion changed rapidly, and his pupils became extremely dilated.

“Ah, there are little ghosts!” Zhao Dong let out a shrill scream, his body trembling uncontrollably.

The cheongsam-clad beauty beside them was instantly petrified by Zhao Dong’s reaction.

How come Xu Fan was fine after touching the Jade Token, while his subordinate, just upon touching it, experienced the same horrifying vision as the previous two in an instant?

Xu Fan, holding the Jade Token, gave a light flick, shaking off Zhao Dong’s fingers that were resting on it.

Zhao Dong shivered a few more times before regaining his senses. He looked at Xu Fan with a mix of fear and amazement, “Young Master, there really is a ghost in this Jade Token. As soon as I touched it, I saw a child in ancient clothing smiling at me, and with each smile, green blood began to ooze out of its seven orifices—it almost scared the pee out of me.”

Xu Fan chuckled lightly and said, “The resentment on this Jade Token is real, but it just doesn’t affect me.”

“Young Master, you really are—I’ve never seen anything like it in my life! In one word—awesome!” Zhao Dong searched for the right words but could only come up with “awesome” to express his admiration for Xu Fan.

The look in the cheongsam beauty’s eyes changed once more as she regarded Xu Fan. Before, she had only seen him as a wealthy and handsome young man, but now, Xu Fan not only exuded mystery but also seemed to possess an incredibly powerful presence—an unflappable demeanor even as Tai Shan crumbled before him, and a confident air as if everything was under his control.

She had felt an eerie chill when she was carrying the sandalwood box earlier, but the chilling sensation vanished as soon as she entered the VIP room number eight.

Initially, she thought it was just a change in temperature but now realized that the feeling of cold had dissipated only near Xu Fan. This man naturally inspired a sense of security. Even the ominous Jade Token stopped emitting its unique cold aura in Xu Fan’s presence.

This man was overwhelmingly powerful, handsome, and enigmatic.

Standing in front of Xu Fan, the cheongsam beauty felt a sense of inferiority wash over her.

Seeing that all matters had been taken care of, the voice in her earpiece started to rush her: “Has the auction item transaction in VIP room number eight been completed? Remind the distinguished guest not to touch the Jade Token out of curiosity.”

“Yes, the Jade Token has been successfully handed over, and the client is very satisfied,” the cheongsam beauty spoke into the earpiece.

“Good, now hurry and prepare the final showpiece!” the commanding voice from the earpiece came once again.

“Sir, I shall take my leave now…” The cheongsam beauty said, seeming somewhat reluctant to leave Xu Fan.

“Alright!” Xu Fan nodded, responding casually.

Zhao Dong slowly pulled open the room door, and the cheongsam-clad beauty walked out of the private room with elegant steps.

Xu Fan fiddled with the Jade Token for a while before gently tucking it into his pocket.

This Jade Token was a rare find on Sea Blue Star, which was deficient in Spiritual Energy. Xu Fan planned to use this Jade Token as a base to make a jade ornament for his beloved daughter. However, the current design, though finely carved, was too traditional and only suited to ancient aesthetic sensibilities. To win his daughter’s favor, Xu Fan would need to rework it.

As for the resentful spirit within it, Xu Fan had plenty of methods to deal with it.

Not long after the cheongsam-clad woman left, Wang Fangtong announced to everyone present that the second-to-last item, Nan Chen Prince’s Jade Token, had been successfully handed over, and the auction would now continue.

The crowd below immediately became a bit stirred up.

Because what was next was the last item of this auction, and also the grand finale.

“Ladies and gentleman, we have now reached the most exciting moment. Our auction has come to its most thrilling part. I’m sure the audience has been eagerly anticipating this moment. So now, let’s have our staff bring out the grand finale of this auction for everyone to see!” Wang Fangtong, holding the microphone, could barely contain his excitement.

Because he hadn’t even seen the grand finale item before the auction.

The item had been kept in Jindun Security Company’s international first-class super vault, located ten kilometers away from the auction, until just before it started.

Only after the auction began did a team of no less than fifty top security personnel, accompanied by a multi-faceted police force, retrieve the grand finale item from Jindun Security Company’s vault and deliver it to Yu Lou Hotel, where the auction was taking place.

It was just ten minutes ago that Wang Fangtong received the news that the grand finale item had arrived; five minutes ago, its details were handed to him by the staff.

This clearly showed how extremely valuable the auction’s grand finale item was.

Now, it had arrived!

The very cheongsam-clad woman who had delivered something to Xu Fan earlier had, at some point, changed into a particularly gorgeous white evening gown. Wearing exquisite crystal high heels and carrying an air of nobility and distinction that matched her stunning beauty, she was no less outstanding than any top actress.

In her slender, jade-like hands, she was holding a box made entirely of Swarovski crystal, which was covered with a piece of precious Shu Brocade. Although the treasure beneath the brocade remained unseen, the sheer opulence of the crystal box had many in the audience dazzled.

The box alone was worth tens of thousands, and whatever it contained couldn’t be anything less remarkable. Even without knowing what it was, the mystery alone had already attracted all eyes in the venue to the stage.

The cheongsam-clad woman— no, the evening gown-clad beauty—slowly walked to the center of the stage and gently placed the large crystal box on Wang Fangtong’s auction table.

Wang Fangtong’s hand slowly reached towards the Shu Brocade covering the crystal box.

“I’m sure everyone is very much looking forward to seeing the treasure inside this crystal box. I am just as curious since even I, the host, have not seen the true face of the grand finale item. Now, please join me in witnessing this historic moment.”

Having said that, Wang Fangtong’s hand gently lifted the Shu Brocade from the crystal box.
