Peerless Immortal Son-in-law

Before the rusted knife could land on the porcelain plate, the cold light instantly cut open a neat hole in the middle of the porcelain plate. With a "peng" sound, the porcelain plate was instantly split into two halves and fell down from the display stand.    

    

In the next moment, the rusted knife slashed across the porcelain plate.    

    

In the eyes of others, this scene was like a rusted knife landing on a porcelain plate and forcibly splitting the porcelain plate into two. However, in reality, only Ding Yi and Gao Pei understood that this was not the sharpness of the rusted knife.    

    

"Elder Chen!" At this moment, the fat old man walked over, he hurriedly supported Elder Chen and said anxiously, "What are you doing, this ancient blade was left behind from the pre-Qin era, this is a treasure that can only be met by luck but not sought after!"    

    

"Don't worry, it won't be bad." Elder Chen grinned and put the rusted knife back on the table. He turned to look at Ding Yi, "Little friend, what a sharp knife. It's priceless."    

    

"What does little friend want to do with this blade?" A trace of hope flashed across Elder Chen's eyes as he looked at Ding Yi and said.    

    

Hearing Elder Chen's words, Ding Yi nodded his head with a smile and said, "Since you're here, you naturally want your bank to help you auction it out."    

    

"What?!" Such a treasure is actually going to be auctioned off! "    

    

"We must report this to the Patriarch as soon as possible!"    

    

The surrounding people were shocked by Ding Yi's words. If it was anyone else, they would definitely be reluctant to sell such a treasure, because such a priceless treasure was something that could only be found and not sought after.    

    

Anyone with a discerning eye would be able to tell that this blade was not as simple as an ancient artifact from the pre-Qin era. Just from that one slash, it had cleanly cut the porcelain plate into two pieces, yet not a single piece of copper rust had fallen off.    

    

"Alright, since little friend believes in our New City Auction House, we should arrange for people to appraise, promote and block you as soon as possible!" Elder Chen nodded with a smile. He leaned on his Dragon Claw and continued, "Please rest assured little friend, our New City Auction House will give you a satisfactory answer."    

    

Hearing Elder Chen's words, everyone was surprised, including the two old men, one was fat while the other was thin. Even Mr. Elder Qin was surprised, as he didn't expect Elder Chen to explain so much to Ding Yi.    

    

Elder Chen, who was usually the most experienced among them, didn't even want to respond to them. A smile rarely appeared in a hundred days, but today he constantly revealed a smile. The smile on his face today was probably comparable to the smile of the previous year.    

    

Just when everyone was astonished, no one expected Ding Yi to actually shake his head. This made them even more confused. The faces of a few appraisal masters slightly changed, Elder Chen frowned and became serious.    

    

"There's no need to go through all this trouble. This blade of mine wants to participate in tonight's auction. I wonder if everyone can help to arrange it?" Ding Yi said as he looked at the crowd with a smile.    

    

Boom!" These words were like a huge rock thrown into a quiet lake. It was like a stone that caused a thousand ripples, causing the surrounding people to immediately explode!    

    

The auction was going to take place today, and it was going to be a priceless treasure in the pre-Qin era. What kind of explosive news would that be?! The people who had been waiting here to ask about more news could no longer stand and left the auction house in a hurry.    

    

"This... "It's not impossible for us to participate in today's auction, but …" Elder Chen hesitated for a moment and looked at the fat old man and the skinny old man. He hesitated for a moment and then said, "If that's the case, I'm afraid we won't be able to do the appraisal and promotion. At that time, the price might not be as high as you expected."    

    

"That's right, little friend, you should think it over carefully." The fat old man immediately nodded his head. This was also for Ding Yi's own good. If they were to temporarily attend the auction and didn't go through the examination and promotion, the chances of the auction would be very high.    

    

Ding Yi shook his head with a smile and said, "No worries, please help me arrange it. As for the price, please give me some advice from Elder Chen, I will get whatever I want as well."    

    

"Sigh... "It seems like little friend is determined to make his move today." Elder Chen actually did not say anymore and just sighed.    

    

"With how open you are, our New City Auction House will naturally give you a satisfactory answer." At this time, the skinny old man looked at Ding Yi and smiled. His eyes lit up as he continued, "How about this, young friend go to our auction house's guest room to rest first. We will discuss this and you will be satisfied tonight!"    

    

"Alright, then I'll be waiting for your good news." Ding Yi agreed without hesitation.    

    

As for the Rust Blade, he was not worried about it, there was a sliver of his Power of the Soul on it, even if he was tricked by others, he could still find the blade anytime, and from his contact with Elder Chen, he believed that they would not do such a thing.    

    

When Ding Yi and Gao Pei followed the people from the New City Auction House to the resting room, the news of the rusted blade had already caused a fierce wind in the outside world, engulfing all the powerful families in the entire Changzhou City. All the powerful clans knew of this news, especially the news of the rusted blade being auctioned tonight, which made many people unable to sit still.    

    

Time passed quickly and it was already evening. The two of them sat in the resting room. Ding Yi suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards the door.    

    

Gao Pei also opened his eyes and looked towards the door. The next moment, the door to the lounge was pushed open. The fat old man who he met before walked in and smiled to the two of them: "The auction is about to start, please."    

    

"Sorry for the trouble." Ding Yi stood up and nodded, then walked outside with Gao Pei.    

    

The auction house of the New City Auction House was very large. The entire venue looked very simple and grand, with a classical elegance everywhere. Ding Yi was led to a high platform by the fat elder.    

    

This high platform was facing the stage, and the surroundings were surrounded by a translucent curtain. It was the clearest position in the whole auction, although it wasn't the best location in the high platform, Ding Yi was very satisfied.    

    

"Your knife, we have decided to be the final item for this auction. The starting price is 80 million, and the estimated sale price is over 2 billion." While gesturing for Ding Yi to sit, the fat old man told Ding Yi the estimated price.    

    

"Thank you very much." Ding Yi nodded. He didn't care about the price. Instead, he looked down from time to time to see who it was.
