There was no faster way to slap someone’s face in public than this.

One second before, he had been scornfully mocking the Jade Token; the next second, after touching the Jade Token, he almost screamed like someone slaughtering a pig.

“Don’t cling to my leg! Get off! …Get off…” The middle-aged man kicked frantically at his right leg, as if the most terrifying of creatures was clinging to it.

Now, nobody dared to have the slightest doubt about the authenticity of the Jade Token. With Wang Fangtong already recognized as an expert in the appraisal field, and considering the reactions of both people who went on stage immediately after touching the Jade Token, everyone truly believed that there was indeed a vengeful spirit attached to it, and their eyes filled with deep wariness when looking at the Jade Token.

Wang Fangtong reached for the Jade Ruler he had used before and with the same technique, he lightly flicked the middle-aged man’s hand that was touching the Jade Token, prying it off.

This unfortunate soul continued kicking his own legs around on the stage, ceaselessly shouting, “Let me go, let me go…”

Seeing the crowd below laughing heartily, the middle-aged man also seemed to realize something was amiss and said to Wang Fangtong with fear, “Elder Wang, there really is a ghost, believe me!”

“I’ve believed it all along, it’s you who didn’t believe and insisted on trying for yourself,” Wang Fangtong said with a smile as he looked at him.

“I’m sorry, I apologize for my recklessness,” the middle-aged man said with a hint of fear to Wang Fangtong. “There is definitely something wrong with this Jade Token. There’s a child, always clinging to my leg, trying to bite me!”

“Don’t worry, it’s just an illusion. Go home, eat some nourishing health products, and get a good sleep for a couple of days, and you’ll be fine,” Wang Fangtong nodded and gestured for him to leave the stage.

“Alright, thank you, Elder Wang.” The middle-aged man walked unsteadily down from the stage, as if the child that had clung to his leg was still affecting him, hobbling as he went.

After he left the stage, he didn’t return to his seat but exited the hall directly through the passageway, whether because he felt embarrassed or because he was too frightened and wanted to find somewhere to calm down.

After the second volunteer was escorted off, Elder Wang smiled and addressed the audience, “Does anyone still doubt the effects of this Jade Token?”

The audience suddenly fell silent, as if enveloped in frost, not daring to breathe out.

Now, who would dare doubt the authenticity of the Jade Token? With Wang Fangtong being an expert in the appraisals field and his reputation for almost never being wrong about antiques he assessed, along with the reactions of those two who had gone on stage and touched the Jade Token, people truly believed that a vengeful spirit inhabited it, hence, their gaze towards the Jade Token was filled with deep apprehension.

“Elder Wang, we really do believe in the effects of this Jade Token now, but why would the auction house bring such a bizarre item to auction? Just touching it causes such terrifying occurrences. Who on earth would dare purchase such a nefarious object, damn it!”

“Yeah, I want to live a few more years. Bringing that home might bring a huge misfortune. Whoever wants it can have it, but I certainly don’t dare to take it. I’m too faint-hearted!”

“This Jade Token is just too sinister. The organizers should have provided a jade that would bring wealth and prosperity to the household. Why would they bring out something that could cause such bad luck? After seeing what happened to those two earlier, who would dare to make a move on it? I bet it wouldn’t take two days before a bloodbath disaster strikes.”

…

The crowd below simply could not understand the purpose behind presenting such an ominous object at such a high-end auction.

Wang Fangtong was a little perplexed as well; the moment he saw the Jade Token, he felt a very unpleasant sensation. He was someone who could sense the energy within jade, and the grudge contained within the Jade Token was extremely heavy, so much so that he could feel waves of chilly aura from a distance.

Wang Fangtong was very wary of this Jade Token, so he had no intention of auctioning off such an evil item. However, the Jade Token and the final star auction item were delivered by the same seller, who bound the two together as a package for the auction, insisting that they be auctioned together or not at all.

Thus, this peculiar Jade Token appeared at the auction tonight.

Although the organizers allowed the Jade Token to be featured in the auction, they did not guarantee that it must be sold. So even if no one bid, it would not be the responsibility of the auction’s organizers.

To absolve himself of responsibility, Wang Fangtong had specifically explained all the details of this eerie Jade Token to the audience, fearing that someone might accidentally purchase this cursed item and later hold him accountable.

Not only that, Wang Fangtong had also invited two audience members to come up and experience the power of the resentful spirits within the Jade Token firsthand.

Therefore, he had made the nefarious nature of the Jade Token clear to everyone; if anyone was unafraid, they were free to buy it, but neither Wang Fangtong nor the auction’s organizers would bear any responsibility for it.

Regrettably, although most of the audience members were wealthy bosses with fortunes in the millions or even billions, they were just ordinary people who dared not trifle with the supernatural spirit attached to the Jade Token.

After Wang Fangtong announced a starting bid of five million, a sudden silence fell below, without a single bid being called out.

Honestly, who would be insane enough to spend millions on such a sinister item?

After Wang Fangtong called out the price, the auction was greeted by a brief moment of silence.

Only Xu Fan in Box No.8 opened his eyes, a sharp gleam flashing across them.

He wasn’t overly concerned about the grudge attached to the Jade Token; what attracted him was the material of the Jade Token itself.

The jade quality of this Jade Token was that of natural Spirit Jade, which could slowly absorb Spiritual Energy from the world, hence the unusual phenomenon of a resentful spirit latching onto it due to the sudden demise of its master.

Spirit Jade is inherently spiritual, and it was the violent death of its owner that led this Spirit Jade Token, when the Prince was poisoned and died a millennium ago, to become tainted with a trace of vengeance.

Over the centuries, this piece of Spirit Jade tirelessly absorbed the Spiritual Energy of the world.

All the Spiritual Energy would be drawn by the malice within the Jade Token, turning into the towering grudge that now inhabits the Jade Token!
