Starting From Douluo, Glory is Invincible - Chapter 1455

Chapter 1455 The legendary auction

　　After hearing Nightingale’s words, Tianhui couldn’t help but fell into deep thought. He had to admit that this talented girl from the Nanding family did have extraordinary wisdom and vision. Although her suggestion was simple, it got to the heart of the problem and forced him to reconsider his previous plans.

Usentan and Dormont were also listening quietly. Although there was no expression on their faces, there was already a turmoil in their hearts. They all knew that Nightingale’s words were not only suggestions to Tianhui, but also a test and hint to them. Behind this seemingly calm dialogue, there are actually undercurrents surging, and all parties are secretly competing to gain an upper hand in this game.

 “Huh?” Nightingale opened her red lips lightly, and the words she spat out were a bit playful and inquiring. Her soft moan was like a pebble falling into a calm lake, causing ripples in the hearts of Dormont and Usentan.

Dormont’s half-closed eyes suddenly lit up, and his plump body seemed to be shaken by this. He quickly turned his head to look at Tianhui, with a bit of curiosity and expectation on his face. As for Wu Sentan, the chief referee of the White Tiger Judgment Office, his usually expressionless face also showed unconcealable surprise at this moment. Both of their eyes were focused on Tian Hui.

Tianhui’s expression remained unchanged, as if he had already expected this question. He smiled slightly, and that smile revealed calmness and calmness. “Is Miss Nanding interested in this quartz stone?” He spoke slowly. There was no emotion in his voice, but it had a convincing power.

Nightingale shook her head slightly, her smile still gentle and kind. “No,” she said softly, “It’s just that there are so many powerful people in Shenyin Hall. This thousand-year-old crystal stone doesn’t seem to be of much practical use to you. So, I might as well suggest that you use it If you put it up for auction, you might get a good price.”

Her words are like the spring breeze blowing on the face, making people feel good about her involuntarily. However, Tianhui heard a different meaning in these gentle words. He sighed inwardly, this Nightingale was really a shrewd businessman, and she actually made an idea for him. In this way, Nanding Auction House can not only make a lot of profits from it, but also take this opportunity to enhance its status in the industry.

However, Tianhui is not an ordinary person. He had already made his own plans. This time he came to Nanding Auction House just to auction off this piece of crystal stone. He smiled faintly and said: “Actually, this is the purpose of my trip, otherwise I would not come to Nanding Auction House. Moreover, I have already handed over the Dou Jing Stone to the staff for appraisal.”

As soon as he said this, Dormont’s eyes widened, with an expression of dissatisfaction and surprise on his face. “Oh? So you came here to auction things,” he muttered, “and you lied to me and said you wanted to get together with old friends?”

 Tianhui looked at Dormont’s exaggerated expression and couldn’t help feeling a little amused. He patted Dormont on the shoulder and said with a smile: “Don’t be angry, old man. Didn’t I want to give you a surprise? Besides, do we need to be so clear-cut between us brothers?”

After saying these words, Dormont’s expression softened a little. He glared at Tianhui and pretended to look away, but secretly glanced at the dou spar in Tianhui’s hand with his peripheral vision. Usentan, on the other hand, has been silently observing all this, his eyes are deep and complicated, as if he is thinking about some important issue.

At this moment, the staff of the auction house walked in, holding an appraisal report in their hands. He respectfully handed the report to Tianhui and stepped aside. Tianhui glanced at the contents of the report and nodded with satisfaction. This Dou Jing Stone is indeed a rare treasure. It not only contains powerful energy, but also has a very high collection value. He believes it will be the center of attention at the upcoming auction.

“Alright,” Tianhui handed the report to Nightingale, “When is your auction house going to hold the auction? I can’t wait to show off my quartz stone.”

Nightingale took the report and looked at it carefully. A trace of surprise and joy flashed in her eyes, and she was obviously very satisfied with the quality of this quartz stone. She raised her head, looked at Tianhui and smiled: “Don’t worry, Lord Tianhui, we will definitely arrange an auction as soon as possible. By then, this Dou Jing Stone will definitely fetch a price that satisfies you.”

Hearing this, Tianhui, Dormont and Usentan all showed knowing smiles. They all knew in their hearts that this Dou Jing Stone would trigger an unprecedented bidding boom. And in this craze, what role will each of them play? All this will be revealed in the near future.

 In the following days, Nanding Auction House was busy making careful preparations for the upcoming auction. Tianhui, Dormont and Usentan also returned to their respective residences, waiting for the auction to arrive.

 Finally, amid much attention, the auction was held as scheduled. On that day, there was a lot of traffic in front of Nanding Auction House, and rich and noble people from all over the world came to participate in this grand auction. They are either bidding for their favorite treasures or making friends with like-minded friends. Everyone’s face is filled with smiles of anticipation and excitement.

At the backstage of the auction house, Tianhui stood quietly, looking through the gap in the curtain at the bustling crowd outside. His heart was full of anticipation and nervousness. After all, this Dou Jing Stone was of great significance to him. He took a deep breath, tried to calm down his emotions, and prepared to face the upcoming challenge.
