Chapter 1650 – The Demoness
*****Matthew stared at Xavier through the one-way window of his private room, his face strangely blank.For several seconds, he didn't move.It was as though his mind had encountered an unexpected wall and had no idea how to climb over it.‘An A-rank backer?’His fists slowly tightened.If that was true, then things had become considerably more complicated.The two B-rank bodyguards standing behind him exchanged a glance.Neither spoke, but both men released a quiet breath internally.What a ridiculous turn of events.Neither had anticipated this development.More importantly, both of them silently thanked whatever fortunate stars were still willing to watch over them.They had almost attacked earlier.If they had actually laid hands on Xavier and his companions, they might have already created an unnecessary conflict with the A-rank powerhouse backing Xavier.Even if that mysterious powerhouse eventually backed down after discovering that Matthew's father was also an A-rank fighter,
Chapter 1649 – The Auction’s Assumption
*****Whether they wanted to pay attention to him or not, everyone in the Upper Realm had heard Xavier’s voice repeatedly during the first phase.However, no one had expected to hear it again in the second phase.This was the Upper Realm's battlefield, the place where tens of hundreds of millions would be thrown around without hesitation, and a place where someone like Xavier wasn’t supposed to participate.Yet he had just done exactly that.For a moment that felt almost eternal, nobody moved, blinked, or spoke.Slowly, one gaze after another turned toward the source of the voice.Until every eye in the Lower Realm landed on Xavier.Their hearts seemed to leap straight into their throats.‘He… he actually bid?’The thought repeated through countless minds.They stared at him so intensely that it was almost as though they were hoping the scene would somehow change.It didn't.Xavier was still sitting there calmly, his bidding card in hand, his expression composed.The realization sent
Chapter 1648 – The Upper Realm Battlefield
*****“$21,000,000!”A clear yet excited voice rang out from one of the Upper Realm rooms.The entire hall fell silent once again.‘This…’The people in the Lower Realm stared toward the Upper Realm, their expressions changing completely.‘Did that person really just add another million dollars to the bid without even hesitating?’The thought alone was enough to make several people swallow nervously.‘So fucking wealthy!’Before the Lower Realm could fully process the shock, however, a mocking voice echoed from another private room.“So poor. I bid $25,000,000!”The entire Lower Realm went silent.‘Did he just call him poor?’Twenty-one million dollars.Poor.They stared blankly toward the Upper Realm, and just at that moment…“Did you just insult me?!” the first bidder spat furiously, his pride clearly wounded. “I bid $28,000,000!”“Hahaha! Now this is getting interesting.”A third voice joined the competition, sounding almost delighted by the escalating battle.“I bid $32,000,000!”
Chapter 1647 – The Nine-Petal Lotus Ring
*****The Nine-Petal Lotus Ring was pure white, its ancient jade surface carrying a flawless beauty that seemed almost unreal beneath the auction hall's brilliant lights. The moment it was revealed, the breathing of nearly everyone in the hall caught in their throats.“So… beautiful.”Several people whispered the words without even realizing they had spoken aloud. Their eyes remained fixed on the ring, as though looking away for even a second might somehow make it disappear.The reaction in the Upper Realm was even more pronounced.Every powerful figure who had previously appeared indifferent and aloof to the earlier treasures became completely attentive.Their eyes locked onto the ring with an intensity that made it obvious they understood that this was no ordinary piece of jewelry.Even Matthew, whose attention had been consumed by his hatred for Xavier since the beginning of the auction, found himself momentarily forgetting about his enemy.His eyes widened as he stared at the Nine
Chapter 1646 – The Auction Second Phase
*****Each time, the crowd's hope rose, only to be crushed beneath Xavier's final bid.The more they lost, the more convinced they became that he was deliberately getting revenge on them for siding with Matthew and for mocking him when he first entered the auction.Nobody considered the possibility that Xavier simply didn't care about their feelings.Eventually, every item that could be purchased by the Lower Realm attendees had been brought out.The crowd glared at Xavier with barely concealed hatred. Some looked as though they wanted to burn a hole through his back with their eyes, while others clenched their fists in frustration, silently calculating how much money they had lost because of him.Yet beneath all that resentment, another emotion had begun to grow.Greed.Many of them recalled the treasures Xavier had accumulated and felt their hearts ache.‘If only this fool hadn't offended Young Master Matthew, everything he purchased tonight would have been mine.’The regret was alm
Chapter 1645 – The Lower Realm’s Number One Enemy
*****The auctioneer's tone remained calm, but the coldness beneath it had unmistakably deepened.Beside Xavier, SageMyron and Mistress Ayra instantly tensed.Sage Myron's back stiffened as he glanced anxiously toward Xavier.‘Please tell me you aren't doing this for fun, Sir Patriarch.’His eyes practically screamed the question.Unfortunately, Xavier did not seem to notice his desperate gaze.Or perhaps he noticed it and simply didn't care.Either way, his expression remained as relaxed as ever.Mistress Ayra's brows slowly furrowed.She stared at Xavier with growing confusion.‘Sir Patriarch always prefers to keep a low profile. He practically hates unnecessary attention.’Her gaze lingered on him.‘Then why…?’A strange suspicion surfaced in her mind.She narrowed her eyes.‘Why is he deliberately rage-baiting everyone?’If only Xavier were able to hear unspoken questions, he would have been completely caught off guard.Of all the accusations he could have imagined being thrown a
