"You all can talk, but if possible, I'll take five grams of this stuff. I'm not concerned about anything else. Don't fight with me over it!"

Seeing the waters had already been muddied, Elder Xu said faintly.

Old Man Xu glanced at Elder Xu, silently pondering.

He didn't believe that Elder Xu wasn't tempted by this item.

However, it seemed this old fellow had whispered something to Hao Jian earlier, seemingly reaching an understanding.

Therefore, Elder Xu couldn't help but hesitate, afraid of stirring up trouble he couldn't handle.

Having lived for so many years, and with his remarkable status, he knew better than others how deep the waters of this world were.

Of course, concerns aside, the item before his eyes was truly irresistible.

If he missed out due to a bit of worry, he would surely regret it immensely.

Xu Tuzhi thought for a moment and sighed deeply:

"Elder Xu, I don't plan to let go of this thing either. I'm also vying for those five grams."

Others naturally overheard their conversation, casting curious glances at Xu Tuzhi and Elder Xu.

This rare gem was, of course, better to have more of, yet the two of them were willing to give it up!

Elder Li glanced at them, then at the others, finally saying:

"Judging by its texture, this item is at least ten thousand years old and blood-red. Genuine Medicinal Tai Sui is already scarce, and this Blood Tai Sui is even rarer than a unicorn."

"According to the secret manuals in old my house, if I'm not mistaken, just one gram of this with aged ginseng will become the finest medicine in the world."

"When a person is near death, consuming a dose can Revive the Dead. Back then, the Elixir of Immortality that Emperor Qin Shi Huang asked Xu Fu to find was this Medicinal Tai Sui!"

"Especially this specimen before us, it must be about twenty grams, right? I imagine none of you are unaware of its value; you're just not willing to say it out loud, right?"

Elder Li initially seemed worried that people wouldn't recognize its value, but by the end, he was laying it all out.

Of course, there was still one person among them who was clueless, and that was the bewildered Zhou Hanyun.

After Elder Li finished speaking, she looked at Yang Yan in shock.

She could never have imagined that such a thing existed in the world.

And Yang Yan was auctioning it off.

Was it just to gain face for himself?

Zhou Hanyun felt her mind going blank once again.

Elder Li squinted at Elder Xu and Xu Tuzhi, seemingly trying to gauge what they were thinking.

Elder Xu was well aware of this item's value.

Frankly speaking, if he could obtain it, he could extend his life by at least another hundred years.

It's worth noting that he's already in his seventies.

Though his health was still reasonable, at best, he had twenty or thirty more years to live.

Moreover, near the end, the torments of illness would increase, inevitably making life unbearable.

Thus, this item was indeed incredibly significant for him.

However, just now, Hao Jian had told him that the Eastern Great World was something he built for Yang Yan, and with just one word from Yang Yan, the multi-billion-dollar Eastern Great World would belong to Yang.

Since years ago, when he first laid eyes on Hao Jian, he'd been taken with this ruthless young man by his indiscriminate methods.

Back then, he wanted the then-teenaged Hao Jian to become the general manager of Donghai Group.

Unexpectedly, he was refused.

Since then, he had always kept an eye on this young man, trying to understand why he wouldn't accept his offer.

Others didn't know, but he was well aware of how this young man climbed from the bottom to become the new elite of East Sea.

Such a proud individual said all he had belonged to the young man before their eyes.

He wouldn't believe that Yang Yan was an ordinary person.

He trusted Hao Jian's judgment and believed in his own.

Moreover, from the moment he arrived, this young man named Yang Yan exuded not just a lazy aura but something indescribable.

He trusted his instincts, instincts that had helped him through countless hardships.

So, he decisively gave up the Medicinal Tai Sui.

Elder Li was right—the best things are only worthwhile if they can be enjoyed.

Yet, Elder Li himself was captivated by this item.

It seemed the show was about to begin.

With Elder Li revealing the value of the Medicinal Tai Sui, no one disguised their greed; every one of them stared at it, eager to snatch it up immediately.

They were all worldly elites; there wasn't a fool among them.

Everyone understood that Elder Li was gathering allies.

Clearly, he feared this young man had a remarkable background and worried he couldn't handle it alone, hence his attempt to highlight it.

If they wanted it, they'd have to take action.

Whatever happened afterward, they would have to bear it together.

No one could dream of reaping where they hadn't sown.

They exchanged glances and nods quickly.

Finally, a middle-aged man in gold-rimmed glasses coughed and said with a smile:

"My friend, I'm Liu Fei from East Sea First Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. Look, with so many of us here, five grams isn't enough to go around."

"Then what do you think would be enough?"

Yang Yan squinted at him and said flatly.

"It's not much at all! Just barely twenty grams, a hundred grams. Even if it's five grams per person, it's still not enough. Why don't you just set a price, and we'll buy it."

A young man in his thirties said softly.

"Ha-ha! That's rather shameless of you! What if we set a price you can't afford? Wouldn't that be embarrassing? Come on, be serious. This isn't something you can afford."

Beside them, Zhuge Wushuang suddenly laughed with a mocking tone.

"Excuse me, who are you?"

The man squinted, examining Zhuge Wushuang from head to toe, a glimmer of surprise in his eyes.

"What does it matter who I am to you? We've already offered you five grams; you should be content. If we give it all to you, I'd like to see which of you survives past tomorrow."

Zhuge Wushuang ignored his intense gaze, mocking him with a cold smile.

"Young girl, in this region of the East Sea, no one dares to speak to us like that. And whether or not we can handle it isn't for you to worry about."

"From what I see, a billion would suffice for this stuff. Take the billion and go squander it! Otherwise, if a few people suddenly disappear from this world, who would care?"

A middle-aged man, as bulky as Fatty, threatened coldly.

"If you want to harm them, you'll have to go through me first!"

Hao Jian suddenly stood up and said coldly.

The situation concerned Yang Yan, and since the other party had already made a threat, he was in no position to retreat.

With Hao Jian speaking up, everyone was taken aback, and the scene quieted instantly.
