For example, Xyla Quest might have asked for it at 50,000 or 10,000 dollars…However, she didn’t try to bargain at all.Now, the stall owner was already entirely certain that he had bumped into a dumb person with a lot of money.He liked this kind of people the most.When Xavier York heard this, he instantly inhaled sharply. After that, his face turned solemn. “No… Why won’t you listen to me? Kiddo…”People around Xyla also took in a breath of cold air. None of them could understand why Xyla would spend 100,000 dollars on the lousy piece of rock…At one glance, that rock seemed low-quality.There was no point in opening it at all.“Why do I feel that Xyla really has misjudged it this time?”“So what? 100,000 dollars is nothing to her. It’s just some spare change to her.”“It’s normal for her to misjudge things. Nobody can always be right…”“Yeah. Sometimes, luck doesn’t always side with the same person…”People around Xyla started talking.Although Xyla heard what everyone

After that, Xavier York looked deeply at Xyla Quest and sighed. He went into the auction house and asked the three male employees dressed in tuxedo suits to come out and help move the rock…Right after that, Xyla Quest’s bodyguards and the three employees from the auction house worked together to move the rock into the auction house.Finally, they placed the rock horizontally on the cutting machine in the center of the auction stage.After putting it down, Xyla, Xavier, and the group of onlookers entered the auction hall together.Many people sat down at their respective tables.Meanwhile, Xyla followed Xavier onto the auction stage…Xyla glanced at the rock. After that, she borrowed a marker pen from Xavier…Right after that, she quickly activated her X-ray vision. She then carefully drew a long, black line on the longer side of the rock according to what she saw…This line could perfectly split the rock into half from the center…If the cutting was done precisely, not only c

This scene instantly petrified everyone in the hall…Everyone’s eyes subconsciously widened as they held their breaths, including Xavier York and the people on stage and the people off stage.The entire world suddenly became quiet.It was pin-drop silence.“Oh my god… There’s a dinosaur fossil inside this thing?”“Who could’ve imagined this? This thing doesn’t contain jade! But it contains a dinosaur fossil!”“A perfect dinosaur fossil like this is worth at least a few ten million dollars!”“What’s it like to be the luckiest person alive? I think Xyla would know. Oh my god! I feel embarrassed and dizzy.”“If I’d known earlier, I would’ve bought it…”After the people below the stage were stunned for a few seconds, they all started discussing among themselves.Right then, everyone was extremely excited.Meanwhile, Xyla was also feeling extremely satisfied as she looked at such a perfect rock.Xavier, who was next to her, looked at the dinosaur fossil on the cut surface with a

“I wonder who’s the idiot. Do you know what came out of that rock of yours?” The male passerby asked.After saying that, the male passerby walked away…The stall owner’s eyes filled with curiosity. “What?” He looked at the male passerby as he left.However, the male passerby didn’t answer him.Out of curiosity, the stall owner left his stall and quickly ran into the auction house.As soon as he entered, he saw the footage on a large screen on stage.Right then, the large screen was displaying the cut surfaces of the two halves of a rock on the stage…When he saw the dinosaur fossil on one of the cut surfaces, he was utterly stunned…‘What’s going on?‘Is that dinosaur fossil?‘Isn’t it worth way more than 100,000 dollars these days?‘It’s worth at least a few ten million dollars!’Did he actually sell something worth a few ten million dollars for 100,000 dollars?In fact, he was even pleased by himself and mocked the person who bought it from him for being an idiot.Now,

What? Did someone already offer forty-five million dollars?Goodness!The forty-five million dollars should’ve belonged to him!“Forty-seven million…” Someone offered a higher price…The person who offered the price was an old man wearing a tuxedo suit with short, white hair that parted in a three-to-seven ratio.Once this price was offered, everyone else became quiet…Seeing that nobody was offering a higher price, Xyla looked below the stage. “Forty-seven million, going once… Forty-seven million, going twice… Forty-seven million, going thrice…” She said.“Alright. Since nobody is offering a higher price, I’d like to announce that my dinosaur fossil is sold to this old man…” Xyla added before politely extending her hand and pointing at the old man.Suddenly, there was thunderous applause.After the old man and Xyla looked at each other and smiled, he politely nodded at everyone.“Forty-seven million… D*mn… That’s even higher than forty-five million…“This money should’ve be

Suddenly, the entire world seemed to be vibrating…There were sands and rocks in the air. It became chaotic, and one could smell pungent gunpower everywhere.The sound of a helicopter’s engine could be heard getting closer above Xyla Quest’s head…In the next second, she saw a huge, deep pit approximately five meters behind her on the ground…Amidst the blurriness, she seemingly noticed many people had fallen into the pit.A bloody scent spread through the entire world.There were people’s arms, legs, and bits of flesh all over the ground…The screaming voices of men, women, old folks, and children were very frightful.In just one moment, this place had turned into a living hell.Everyone around her started covering their ears like headless flies as they ran in scattered directions and screamed.“Help… Ahh… Help!”“Ahh… Help me! Ahh!”“Ahh!”All sorts of noises made the atmosphere even more nerve-wracking.Xyla subconsciously grabbed Xavier York by his sleeve as she look
Chapter 1331
Meanwhile, Xyla Quest needed to stop the person on the helicopter from doing these evil things before they arrived.When Xyla thought of this, she quickly led everyone back to where her car was parked.After that, she retrieved a black sniper rifle from the car trunk.Right then, the helicopter above them once again started flying quickly in their direction…Now, the helicopter was approximately less than five meters away from the ground.Xyla instantly disregarded everything else and armed the sniper rifle. She then leaned against the car next to her in a swift motion and aimed the muzzle at the helicopter in the air…Right after that, she quickly adjusted the targeting scope.Finally, she aimed the muzzle accurately at the windbreaking glass in front of the helicopter.The entire process took place in three seconds.Xyla’s gentleness vanished, and she looked cool and awesome…To allow herself to see more clearly, she thought about her X-ray vision.She tried to activate he

However, Xyla Quest’s skin was covered in bloody wounds from the rocks that came flying her way.Despite the pain, she forced herself to keep going.The world before her eyes seemed completely chaotic and blurry.She could no longer see any target through her sniper rifle…As such, she had no way of aiming accurately at her opponents.However, even so, Xyla didn’t intend on giving up. Based on the sounds made by the helicopter above her, she quickly approximated its location. After that, she started firing…Her bodyguards were doing the same thing.Bang… Bang… Bang…A few shots were fired…Most of the bullets they fired hit the helicopter’s exterior.Only two or three bullets went into the cabin.One of the bullets hit a man who was throwing bombs from the cabin…Meanwhile, two other bullets hit the shoulders of the man wearing a white shirt…Blood gushed out from his wound, and the intense pain made it impossible for him to exert force again.He instantly used all his mi
