Chapter 1754

    "What?"


    "Someone just offered fifty million dors!"


    "Is he out of his mind?"


    The crowd was shocked at Wilbur''s bid. Fifty million was no small amount, but this Dashan man who had already gotten twenty items was offering such a high price.


    Most of the crowd stayed silent after that. Fifty million dors was way out of their budget after that, and they felt like the meteorite was not worth that much either.


    All of a sudden, an old man with white hair mmed a fist on the handle of his armchair with an ashen expression on his face. "What the hell, are you looking down on us Cametrans? You bade for most of the Dashan items, and now you''re even trying to leave with the star of the auction! Do you think you''re still in Dasha? You''d better behave, or I won''t be nice to you!"


    The old man raised his paddle. "Seventy million dors!"


    Wilbur knew that he had just bid over twenty items in Cametra, which would seem like a gesture of arrogance to the other participants present. However, this was still an auction, and the bidder with the highest offer would triumph.


    Besides, Wilbur had been following the rules the entire time. The old man had no right to throw a tantrum at Wilbur like that. Wilbur could also sense a little spiritual energy off him, but it was of Ambience level at best.


    Thus, this man was hardly worth worrying about.


    There were cultivators all around the world, and bumping into one was more thanmon.


    Wilbur raised his paddle. "One hundred million dors!"


    "What?"


    "He just offered a hundred million dors..."


    The crowd was bbergasted. No one could believe that Wilbur had just offered that amount for a mere meteorite, and all eyes were on the old manpeting against him.


    The old man flushed in the face but lowered his head. He was also a member of the Jonan n, but not from Albus'' side.


    The truth was that the actual Jonan n was still doing well, and it was just Albus'' side of the family that had fallen. The old man was bidding on behalf of Walton Jonan''s family, and this was all just a gesture to cover the fact that there was internal conflict in the family.


    After all, family secrets were best kept hidden. The fall of Albus'' family seemed like it was caused by his sudden illness and the high costs of his treatment.


    The truth was that Albus'' family had met its demise due to a vicious internal war. In fact, Watson''s family was already nning to make their next move on Marie once Albus was gone.


    After Albus'' death, Madam Marie would be Watson''s family''s biggest enemy, and Watson did not want their efforts in getting rid of Albus to bring too much trouble to Watson''s own family.


    The old man at the auction was named Greg Jonan, and he was actually just here to scout things out. All of this, including the auction, was a part of a n orchestrated by Walton''s family.


    However, Wilbur''s presence disrupted the n. Thankfully, Greg was not one to make rash decisions, as he knew that Wilbur was just an outsider who would not appear again after the auction and thus there was no need to go too hard against him.


    Thus, Greg chose to keep silent, and Wilbur managed to get his hands on the meteorite for a hundred million dors.
