Oliver Walker did not bid, and the reason was very simple: this matter was far from ordinary.
First, the other party put forward the outrageous request to kill everyone present and then receive the Spirit Gathering Grass for free; then they made an exorbitant bid aimlessly. Was the real reason to sell the Spirit Gathering Grass?
No!
Absolutely not!
There was a conspiracy!
It was reeking of conspiracy!
And backstage, Mike Curtis, with his head down and back hunched, asked nervously, “Young master, do you really intend to auction off the Spirit Gathering Grass?”
Ouch, the pain!
This damn fine treasure of heaven and earth!
Having been the spokesperson for Carter Company in the secular world for so long without the privilege of owning even one, showed just how precious it was…
It was indeed invaluable!
Anthony Carter, with a wine glass in hand, asked back profoundly, “Do you think they can get their hands on the Spirit Gathering Grass?”
Mike Curtis was confused, “Well…”
“What’s the point of the auction then?”
Exactly!
This was just too baffling!
“Heh heh…”
“Tonight, none of the people who have shown up here will leave alive!”
“Who made them all the prime suspects for the slaughter of my Carter Company’s progeny?”
Anthony Carter leisurely tasted the wine and then said casually, “There are simply too many ambushers outside; killing them will be too troublesome, so…”
“I am going to let them kill amongst themselves. My Carter Company people will just take care of the aftermath; isn’t that delightful?”
Mike Curtis’s face was full of confusion; he still did not understand!
But as Anthony Carter’s eyes revealed a sharp murderous intent, Mike Curtis shivered and didn’t dare to ask any further.
The more he knew, the faster he’d die!
He certainly wasn’t tired of living!
At this moment, back in the auction hall, the tension was escalating, but the scene had reached a stalemate.
“Mr. Carter, I think you can call it off now!”
Jessica Wright said coldly, “According to international auction rules, the interval between bids should not exceed one minute, and it has already been one minute and twenty-five seconds!”
Facing such words, Vivian Li was on the verge of going mad.
Still weighing the pros and cons!
Should she splurge her private savings!
“Alright!”
Frank Carter showed an innocently harmless smile, “Eleven billion, once!”
“Eleven billion, twice!”
“Eleven billion…”
At this moment, Frank Carter deliberately paused!
Wanting to see if there was a turn of events.
But just then…
“Ding dong…”
Vivian Li’s phone rang. In a flurry, she looked at it, then stood up and called out firmly, “Twenty billion!”
The text message was very simple: No matter the cost, the Spirit Gathering Grass must be acquired!
And the sender of the message was signed as her father, the current patriarch of the Li family.
With the patriarch speaking out, what was there for Vivian Li to hesitate about?
“Twenty billion!”
“Oh my God!”
“Is money really not an object?”
“Please, take the money and beat me to death with it!”
If one had that much money, who would still practice martial arts!
Isn’t it better to enjoy life?
But the expression on Oliver Walker’s face was growing more solemn by the moment, especially when a dense killing intent had just emanated from backstage…
Together with the current situation, it could be ascertained that the other party was not there for the auction of the Spirit Gathering Grass at all.
It was a conspiracy!
But what exactly was the conspiracy, no one could guess!
And after Vivian Li made her bid, all the pressure once again fell on Jessica Wright.
As she parted her lips, ready to bid again…
Oliver Walker said with a solemn expression, “Girl, trust me, don’t bid any further!”
Although their relationship was no longer as close as before, even turning into hostility, as her senior brother, he still did not want to see the girl deceived in any way.
And the current situation had become very clear!
