chapter 9 Life-saving jade token!

"Since no one is bidding, can this item be given to me now?" Abraham stood up and headed towards Eleanor.
Eleanor was not a fool and quickly handed over the Warm Jade.
Abraham took the Warm Jade, then took out a card from his pocket and gave it to Eleanor, "Here is 20 million, fetch the remaining 1 million from Elias."
"Sir, how can I let you spend so much? I have the money," Elias quickly said.
"No need, you just supplement 1 million," Abraham said indifferently, "I don’t like owing people favors. Take this small gift as a token of gratitude for your efforts."
After saying that, Abraham swiped with his finger, and a piece of the Warm Jade in his hand was directly cut off. The surface was smooth and flat, as if cut by a knife.
Ignoring the shocked gazes of everyone, Abraham swiped his finger again, and the cut jade was divided into four small pieces.
Abraham picked up one piece and moved his finger on the jade surface, and jade shavings were flying around.
Before long, Abraham stopped, looked around, and then asked Elias, "You should be carrying a gun, right?"
Elias nodded dumbly, quickly drew out a pistol from his waist and handed it over.
"Hold this and step back." Abraham threw the jade card to Elias.
As he held the jade card, a warm sensation flowed in. In this scorching summer, Elias felt as if he had returned to spring, and the sweat on his forehead also dissipated. After a moment of surprise, he quickly retreated a few steps, looking at Abraham in confusion.
"Don't be afraid."
After saying that, Abraham pointed the gun muzzle at Elias.
"Bang."
A gunshot sounded, Elias was so scared that his soul flew away, and he closed his eyes tightly. He didn't understand why Abraham wanted to kill him.
Everyone else was also taken aback. They didn't expect Abraham to shoot at Elias.
But then, they were all stunned and shivering.
They saw that as the bullet approached, a ripple suddenly rippled in front of Elias, and the bullet was blocked.
One second.
Two seconds.
Three seconds later, until a "ding" sound, Elias suddenly opened his eyes. He saw a bullet bouncing a few times at his feet and then stopped moving.
"What is this?" He was bewildered because he had closed his eyes and hadn't seen what had happened.
"Bang, bang."
Several consecutive gunshots, and Abraham shot at him again.
This time, Elias didn't even have time to close his eyes, but he saw clearly that the bullets were blocked by the sudden ripples in front of him. He stared with a blank expression, and his body trembled violently. He finally understood what Abraham had given him – a life-saving gift.
Elias quickly walked forward, knelt down in front of Abraham, and was about to speak. At this moment, the jade card in his hand suddenly shattered.
Abraham picked up another jade card, moved his finger, and in a short while, a small array was carved and casually thrown to Elias, "Wear this on your body, and it can protect you from the cold and heat. It can also save your life. Even if a large truck rushes towards you at high speed, you will be safe, but it can only be used once."
"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir."
Elias's face was red with excitement, and he was incoherent, only able to keep bowing.
The others had already turned to stone. What did they just see? With a jade card, even bullets can't kill you, which is equivalent to having an extra life.
Mr. Edgar had already been scared silly. At this moment, he understood what a stupid thing he had done. He immediately kneeled down and begged for mercy while kowtowing at Abraham, "Immortal, please spare my life, I am willing to give everything, please spare me."
Elias, who was holding the jade card and grinning, stepped forward in one stride. He kicked Mr. Edgar to the ground and then started punching him.
"You're so stupid, daring to offend the sir. I'll kill you."
Elias was originally a gangster. He just hasn't been involved in violence for a few years. But his fists were not something that the delicate Mr. Edgar could bear. Mr. Edgar was beaten and screamed.
"Damn, you even dared to call the sir 'little brother'. What do you think you are? From now on, your transport team can't pass through my territory peacefully."
While Elias was cursing, he was also punching and kicking. In a short while, Mr. Edgar was beaten into a pig's head.
"Damn, I've seen long ago that Mr. Griffith is a talented and extraordinary person. How could such a big figure be unable to pay? You're a lowly creature who looks down on people." Kaiden swore, and he didn't care about maintaining his elegant demeanor anymore. He rushed up and gave Mr. Edgar a few kicks.
The others were not fools either. After a moment of shock, they all joined the line to beat the fallen dog.
"When Mr. Griffith entered the door, I saw that he was like an immortal. If it wasn't for you, this old dog, how could I disrespect Mr. Griffith? I'll kill you, you fool who is blinded by lard."
"Mr. Griffith stood there, and my heart was already submissive. You, this old thing, dared to bark at Mr. Griffith, you really don't know how to live."
A group of people were beating and scolding Mr. Edgar, beating him without mercy, and they squeezed Elias out.
How could Elias bear this? This was the best time to show loyalty. Elias rolled up his sleeves and squeezed in again, beating Mr. Edgar mercilessly.
Eleanor was dumbfounded. She really wanted to squeeze in and give Mr. Edgar a few kicks. But looking at these big men who seemed to have taken aphrodisiacs, her scalp went numb and she decided to forget it.
Poor Mr. Edgar could still hum a few times, but in the end, he fainted completely.
Elias and others also subconsciously stopped their hands. Seven or eight people were panting, and it seemed that they hadn't been lazy just now.
"Sir, should we..."
Elias made a throat-slitting gesture.
The others couldn't help but step back. This Elias was really ruthless. After knocking Mr. Edgar out, he actually wanted to kill Edgar.
Everyone's eyes fell on Abraham.
Abraham shook his head. Mr. Edgar had only made things difficult for him and did not cross his bottom line. Now that Mr. Edgar had been punished, let him live.
Abraham's gaze fell on the others.
Everyone immediately fell silent. Just now, when Mr. Edgar was making things difficult for Abraham, they hadn't hesitated to things up. Would Abraham seek revenge later on?
Just when everyone was uneasy, Abraham waved his hand and turned around and left.
It wasn't until several minutes later, when they were sure that Abraham wouldn't come back, that a few people took a deep breath.
"Chairman Cox, Mr. Griffith..."
Kaiden's words hadn't finished yet when Elias interrupted him, "Chairman Kaiden, out of the bit of acquaintance we have, I solemnly remind you, if the sir doesn't speak about his affairs himself, it's best not to pry. Otherwise, no one in this world can protect you."
Seeing Elias's serious look, Kaiden couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
"Also, I advise you all, the sir is like an immortal. You have only seen the tip of the iceberg of his methods. I hope you can keep your mouths shut. Otherwise, don't blame me, Elias, for acting like a stranger."
Everyone nodded one after another. Even if Elias didn't say anything, they were not fools. Something made casually can block bullets, is this something ordinary people can do?
Thinking of this, everyone's eyes fell on the jade card that Elias was holding tightly, and they couldn't help but swallow. An extra life, the temptation of this thing is too great. They must find a way to establish a relationship with the sir. This is everyone's thought.
Elias noticed everyone's gazes and couldn't help but grin again. He held the jade card joyfully, touching and kissing it.
"Chairman Cox, can we make a deal? How about selling this jade card to me for 50 million? I will always remember your kindness." Kaiden was unable to resist the temptation and looked eagerly at the jade card.
"50 million for this jade card? I'll offer 100 million."
"I'll give 200 million."
"I'm willing to give up half of my company's shares."
A group of people suddenly became eager.
"Did I say I wanted to sell it?" Elias sneered. No amount of money could compare to the importance of life.
After saying that, he carefully put the jade card away.
...
Abraham drove back to Hidden Dragon Villa.
With the chalcedony, he could start setting up the Universe Spirit Attraction Array.
Setting up an array was easy for Abraham. It only took a few minutes for the Universe Spirit Attraction Array to be set up.
Universe Spirit Attraction Array, start.
With the chalcedony extracted from the Warm Jade as the array's eye, the entire array started to operate.
The array operated, and the entire Hidden Dragon Mountain shook violently.
The spiritual energy in the spirit vein seemed to be pulled by something, no longer dissipating in the air, but gathering together and rushing towards the villa where Abraham was.
The Universe Spirit Attraction Array protected the entire villa, and the spiritual energy within the entire large formation doubled. The flowers and plants within the villa were nourished by this spiritual energy, flourishing with vibrant greenery.
The concentration of spiritual energy continued to increase.
Abraham's gaze turned towards the spirit vein. He knew he would need to visit it sometime and set up a Spirit Attraction Array there. If someone were to disrupt it, the flow of spiritual energy into the villa would be interrupted, rendering the Universe Spirit Attraction Array ineffective.
Feeling the rich spiritual energy all around him, Abraham immediately sat down to cultivate.
It wasn't until deep into the night, under the starry sky and a bright moon, that Abraham woke up from his cultivation. His aura had become even more ethereal.
Qi Training Mid Stage.
His Azure Dragon Dominance martial technique remained at the first level, but it had become more solid.
Sensing that he now possessed twice as much true energy as before, Abraham couldn't help but let out a long roar. Fortunately, the Universe Spirit Attraction Array muffled the sound; otherwise, everyone in the Hidden Dragon Villa would have been awakened by the shock.
At this point, the spiritual energy within the villa had become thin, as Abraham had absorbed all the previously abundant spiritual energy.
