Chapter 5681
“Even though Aenar Temple is holding the auction, the Surrey family is the biggest investor of the event.
“I thought I didn’t need an invitation for you. After all, that wouldn’t be right judging from a man of your stature.
“I didn’t think that this would happen…
“I didn’t plan things through. Please forgive me.”
Aria Surrey intentionally ambled while she was walking with Harvey York.
She carefully looked at Harvey’s profile, waiting for a response.
“It’s not a big deal.”
Harvey looked as if what happened did not bother him at all. Aria felt confused.
‘As expected from a master like him. People like Alvaro and Asher are completely inferior compared to him…’
The two came to the third floor. This was where the auction would be held.
Many people were already sitting in the dark corners, quietly anticipating the auction to start.
Harvey and Aria’s appearances attracted quite a lot of attention, but the people around here were all prominent figures of the outskirts. As long as their interests were not involved, they would not speak a word about it.
Harvey and Aria sat in the first row. The auction started a few minutes later.
Since Aenar Temple hosted the auction, the items would naturally be related to it.
Relics that were passed down for hundreds of years would turn up.
Things related to geomancy arts that had profound significance were there as well.
That said, Harvey only looked at them calmly. He was not at all interested in any of them.
Judging from the auction, it was clear that there were many wealthy people.
These items all cost millions of dollars, at least.
Soon after, the last item turned up.
A small wooden box was slowly opened before a black and white item was shown inside.
It was Mandala’s One-Eyed Bead!
Harvey’s pupils shrunk as he instinctively sat up straight.
He read a lot regarding the outskirts before coming here.
It was said that Mandala was the source of all sects.
The place represented true power and merit.
The One-Eyed Bead represented a person’s clear mind.
Simply put, the bead was rare, even among the other ones.
More importantly, it was said that this was the very first bead a sect founder created!
It had significant meaning!
It did not matter if the Nine-Eyed Beads had anything to do with everlasting life…
The One-Eyed Bead was still the top priority.
Harvey glanced at Aria.
“Help me get that.
“It doesn’t matter how much I pay.”
Aria was stunned.
“I’ll have to ask my grandfather about this. After all, the price of the bead…”
“You don’t have to pay.
Harvey shook his head.
“It’s inconvenient for me to show my face. Just raise the card for me.”
Then, Harvey flicked his Black Card onto Aria’s lap.
Aria instinctively looked at her lap before changing her expression.
‘A Black Card?!’
