Reborn as the Strongest Immortal Cultivator in Modern Times

Liu Xi walked to the front of the stage, holding the microphone and smiling brightly, and said, "Welcome, everyone, to today's auction."

As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of applause erupted in the hall.

He pressed his palm down and continued, "Our auction this time is extraordinary. We're auctioning imperial green jadeite, icy white jadeite with a translucent base, and red jadeite all at the same time. As everyone knows, these kinds of jadeite are extremely rare right now, so don't miss this opportunity! Gentlemen, you must seize this chance!"

“However, we have to thank someone. If it weren’t for her, these jades wouldn’t have appeared at the same time. Let’s invite Ye Yu, Boss Ye.” Liu Xi turned her gaze to Ye Yu sitting below the stage.

Ye Yu hadn't expected Liu Xi to do this, but she didn't show any surprise on her face.

She stood up from her seat and took a few steps to the front of the stage.

Taking the microphone from Liu Xi, he looked at the crowd below the stage and said, "Thank you all very much for gracing this auction. We also hope that you will cooperate with Jingfei Jewelry Company more often in the future."

She said only a few words, nodded to Liu Xi, turned around and returned to her seat, and another round of applause rang out from the audience.

Liu Xi took the microphone and continued hosting: "I'm sure you've all been waiting impatiently, so without further ado, let's begin the auction."

Today's auction was personally hosted by Liu Xi. He turned to the staff member next to him and gestured, and then two staff members carefully carried out the stone covered with a red cloth.

"Today's first lot is an icy, translucent white jadeite."

He pulled back the red cloth, revealing a white jade the size of a watermelon. Under the light, the jade appeared even more translucent.

"The starting bid for this jadeite is 80 million!"

"One hundred million."

"One hundred and ten million."

"One hundred and thirty million."

"One hundred and sixty million."

The auction atmosphere instantly became lively, and in the end, the white jadeite was bought for a high price of 200 million yuan.

Liu Xi, beaming, stepped onto the stage and continued, "Today's second lot is red jade."

He pulled back the red cloth, revealing a bright, vivid, and translucent red jade the size of a basketball.

"This red jade is a favorite among wealthy ladies; the starting bid is 100 million."

"One hundred and twenty million."

"One hundred and fifty million."

After another round of heated bidding, the basketball-sized red jadeite was sold for 250 million.

Liu Xi returned to the stage: "Tsk tsk tsk, this last piece of jade is extraordinary, it's as big as a washbasin."

After he finished speaking, he pulled back the red cloth, and the Imperial Green that Ye Yu had chosen first was prominently displayed on the table.

"This imperial green jadeite is of excellent quality, without a single impurity, and the color is pure. The starting bid is 500 million!"

The people sitting below the stage finally couldn't sit still any longer and started raising the price.

In just a few minutes, the price was driven up to 500 million.

Sitting next to Ye Yu, Gao Weimin couldn't hide his excitement: "Boss, judging from the way everyone is bidding, this piece of imperial green jade will cost no less than a billion."

Ye Yu was very satisfied. Once the imperial green jade was auctioned off, she would have enough money to start her company.

Ye Yu and Gao Weimin had only exchanged a few words when they heard someone shout, "Fifteen billion!"

After these words were spoken, no one dared to raise the price any further.

Liu Xi, holding the microphone, asked, "Is there anyone else bidding 1.5 billion?"

No one speaks.

So after Liu Xi asked three times, the imperial green jade the size of a washbasin was bought by someone.

After the auction, Liu Xi enthusiastically handed the card to Ye Yu: "Miss Ye Yu, all the money from today's auction is in here. Please keep it safe."

Ye Yu accepted the money and thanked Liu Xi. After exchanging a few more pleasantries, she left with Gao Weimin.

As soon as they stepped out of the reception room, they saw Gao Weimin's ex-wife standing at the door.

She had a handprint on her face and looked at Gao Weimin with teary eyes.

“Weimin,” she called out.

Ye Yu said to Gao Weimin, "I'll go pack my things first. Come find me in the lobby after you're done talking."

Gao Weimin nodded: "Okay, I'll come find you in ten minutes."

After Ye Yu left, his ex-wife came up and grabbed Gao Weimin's sleeve: "Weimin, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have listened to Wang Qigang's sweet talk and stolen your seal and documents. Please forgive me."

Gao Weimin stared at her expressionlessly: "We're already divorced. You ran off with the family money, abandoned our seriously ill son, and betrayed me. Do you think I'll forgive you?"

“I really know I was wrong. I’ve already spent all the money I took. As long as we remarry, I will never spend money recklessly again and will devote myself to being a good wife and mother.”

"It's no longer possible for us."

"Gao Weimin, what did you say when you were pursuing me? You said you would treat me well for the rest of your life. Now that I've been beaten by Wang Qigang, I'm begging you to get back together, and you still won't agree. Do you think you're having an affair with that woman? Otherwise, why would she give you shares?"

Gao Weimin trembled with anger: "You yourself have ulterior motives, yet you have the nerve to criticize others. Wang Qigang was never a good person to begin with, and if you're willing to be with him, I have nothing to say. As I said before, I won't ask you for the money you took, but from now on, my son and I have nothing to do with you anymore."

Gao Weimin turned around, ignoring the crazed woman, and walked towards the hall.

Ye Yu sat in the lobby drinking tea. When she saw Gao Weimin arrive in less than ten minutes, she raised an eyebrow and asked, "Did you finish talking so quickly?"

"Even a good horse doesn't turn back to eat the grass it already grazed. She has ulterior motives, so I don't want any compensation from her. Let it be."

Seeing that Gao Weimin had no lingering feelings, Ye Yu stopped asking related questions.

She told Gao Weimin about her company's plan to build in Zhangshi, gave him one million yuan, and then gave him Xu Jia's contact information.

He was told to bring his child to Zhang City first, and then live there in the future, so that he could focus on his work.

Gao Weimin nodded, indicating that he would handle the matter quickly and move to Zhang City.

After the two finished their conversation, Gao Weimin walked empty-handed towards the vehicle that Liu Xi had prepared.

Ye Yu slowly picked up the backpack that was placed to the side and walked to the car she had rented.

She got into the car, started the engine, and headed towards Hong City.

As the vehicle drove along the road, Ye Yu saw two SUVs following behind her in the rearview mirror.

She stepped on the gas and sped straight ahead.

The vehicles following behind were equally eager to follow, no matter how fast Ye Yu ran.

When Ye Yu drove onto the mountain road, the vehicles behind him finally couldn't sit still any longer and started shooting at Ye Yu's car.

Ye Yu was driving, dodging left and right, but the car's tires were hit by bullets and went flat.

The steering wheel went out of control, and the car drove straight down the cliff.

The men following behind stopped their car at the edge of the cliff. One of them kicked the others a few times, yelling, "Why the hell are you shooting like that? The boss said people can die, but the rock must be found. What are we going to do now? The car has fallen off the cliff."

The others listened to his angry outbursts without saying a word.

Ye Yu lay on the edge of the cliff and, upon hearing what the man said, guessed that they were most likely members of the Yang Gang.

Without further hesitation, five bone needles flew towards them, instantly killing several people.

Then Ye Yu pushed off with both feet and flew onto the road.

The two survivors were stunned to see Ye Yu fly up from the cliff.

Before they could even understand what was happening, Ye Yu kicked each of them until they were unable to move.

Ye Yu stepped on one of their hands and asked, "Are you from the Yang Gang?"

"Yes, we are."

Why are you following me?

“Our boss heard that you have a lot of jadeite rough stones here, so he sent three people to steal them. But they never came back, and our boss thought something was wrong, so he sent us to follow you.”

After Ye Yu understood the whole story, he threw them off the cliff.
