Chapter 1038 Auction
Grandpa, huh…
Alex looked up at the clear, blue sky, only to shield his eyes from the blindingly bright sun.
Having become a half Grandmaster, it was about time he headed over to Doomsday Prison and rescued his father.
“Grandpa will be back soon!” Alex said with a serious look on his face. That was not just a promise to Stanley but also to himself.
Hang in there, Dad! I’ll get you out of there soon! Please believe in me!
Alex had been training really hard in order to strengthen himself and rescue his father from that dark and gloomy prison.
Stanley nodded profusely in response. The depressed look on his face was replaced by joy when he heard that he could see his grandfather soon.
“Yeah! I believe you, Daddy! I wonder what Grandpa looks like. Will he like me, Daddy?” Stanley asked worriedly.
Kate hated him a lot and threatened to kick him out of the house. Stanley had no idea what he did wrong, so he was worried that his grandfather would dislike him as well.
Alex let out a chuckle and patted Alex on the head. “Don’t worry! You’re his only grandson, so he’ll definitely like you!”
It was already late after they went shopping for some daily necessities, so Alex and Stanley had no choice but to spend the night in a hotel.
Alex was on the way back to the hotel when he overheard a middle-aged man saying on the phone, “I heard the stuff being sold at this auction are incredibly rare and precious herbs! You’ll regret it if you don’t attend the auction!”
The words “rare” and “precious” piqued his interest instantly, and he pricked his ears to listen in on the middle-aged man’s conversation.
“I think they mentioned Blood Ganoderma or something. Apparently, a lot of people have set their sights on it. I don’t know what’s so valuable about it, though. I’m not interested in that one at all.”
The middle-aged man then rubbed his nose as he continued with a lecherous grin, “I also heard that catwoman will be at the auction as well! I’ve got to check it out no matter what!”
Alex couldn’t hear the rest of the conversation as the middle-aged man returned to his room and shut the
door.
However, he had heard enough to know that the Blood Ganoderma, which he needed for the synthesis of Foundation Establishment Pill, would be available at the auction.
That alone was more than enough reason for Alex to go check out the auction. If the Blood Ganoderma were a hundred-year-old one, he would have to obtain it no matter what.
As the information he obtained from the man was insufficient, Alex made a trip to the auction house himself after tucking Stanley in.
