I Have Awakened The Deduction System

“It was said that Emperor Chu had offered ten million taels of gold to search for this sword. Who would have thought I could get it for a mere two million and five hundred thousand taels of gold!”

The old man was overjoyed. The gaze he looked at He Chuan with became more appreciative and pleasing to the eye.

Originally, he had nothing to do and came to the Eight Treasures Pavilion to join in the fun. He did not expect that he would not only find an eighth-grade Array Master but also earn a large sum of money.

The Yuchang Sword was only a high-grade Spirit Weapon to him, but it was a

great opportunity for a prince who wanted to fight for the throne!

Especially the Crown Prince. Now that the other princes were restless, the position of the Crown Prince was not as stable as before. If he could obtain the Yuchang Sword and present it to the Emperor, it would definitely be of great benefit to consolidating the position of the Crown Prince.

“The Crown Prince will definitely be happy! ” The young man beside him said excitedly. “At that time, Elder Xiao would be the Crown Prince’s benefactor!”

“Chu Changtian is very scheming, too shrewd, and he is also very vicious. If he really gets the throne, it might not be good!” The joy on the old man’s face suddenly disappeared and was replaced by a cold smile.

“Elder Xiao, what do you mean?”

“Let’s talk about it later!”

The old man was obviously unwilling to explain further. He stopped this topic and looked down again, preparing to see the mysterious youth first!

The blade was filled with inscriptions. This was the Yuchang Sword!

In the auction hall, an old man with a head full of white hair stood up shakily. The sword of Emperor Gaozu, when he was alive, was once the symbol of royal power.

Ten years ago, Emperor Chu had offered a reward of ten million taels of gold for this sword!

Yuchang Sword?

As someone had said.

As the sword of the founding emperor, the Yuchang Sword was famous for a long time.

Not only had Emperor Gaozu killed countless experts with this sword, but it had also witnessed the Chu Dynasty becoming a powerful empire from a small family. Whether it was its significance or value, it far surpassed other Spirit Weapons.

Just from the reward of ten million taels of gold the current Emperor Chu offered, one could see the clues.

Ten million gold taels was equivalent to the price of ten high-grade Spirit Weapons.

Even in the imperial capital, it was considered a huge sum of money.

In an instant, everyone’s eyes lit up, and their greed was not concealed at all.

The dagger was worth ten million gold taels!

“Damn it!” Zhao Zheng clenched his fists, his face ashen.

As a veteran of treasure hunting, he had naturally heard of the famous Yuchang Sword and knew its value.

He did not expect that the rusty short sword actually hid a secret, and it even hid the long-lost Yuchang Sword!

Who didn’t know that the Yuchang sword was a high- grade Spirit Weapon?

He had completely lost this time!

“That saves me the trouble of hiring someone to appraise it. How are you going to pay me two million gold taels?” He Chuan looked back at Zhao with an indifferent expression.

Zhao Zheng’s face was pale. He subconsciously wanted to go back on his words, but when he saw the receipt He Chuan took out from his pocket and everyone’s gaze, he couldn’t go back on his words.

Otherwise, he would not only offend He Chuan and the Eight Treasures Pavilion.

However, it was complicated for him to take out two million gold taels.

After all, who would bring so much gold with them?

“I’ll give it to you in ten days!” Zhao Zheng pretended to be calm and gritted his teeth.

“Send two million gold taels to the Eight Treasures Pavilion within ten days. Yao Qiankun will collect it for me!” He Chuan did not force it.

Yao Qiankun nodded helplessly as he looked at Zhao Zheng with eyes full of pity.

If you don’t listen when someone was reminding you, you’ll suffer a loss! He Chuan waved at Wei Jianning and was about to leave with Ren Xiaomeng.

“Wait!”

“Little Brother, wait!”

Two voices sounded almost at the same time.

“Second Prince?”

“Elder Xiao?”

The two of them were the Second Prince, Chu Yuntian!

Longteng Academy’s Xiao He!

Yao Qiankun and the rest’s expressions changed slightly and became solemn.

Chu Yuntian was in his twenties. He was dressed luxuriously and had an extraordinary bearing.

There was a hint of worry between his brows and a gentle smile on his lips. It was quite unique.

Xiao He had a head full of white hair and looked a little old, but he was full of energy and emitted a terrifying aura.

Martial arts expert!

He Chuan’s pupils constricted, and he became suspicious.

He didn’t seem to know the two of them, right?

“I was still puzzled just now. I didn’t expect it to be Elder Xiao!” Chu Yuntian looked at the old man opposite him, and his tone carried a hint of coldness. Chu Yuntian knew very well that none of his eight brothers wanted him to sit on the throne.

His mother was only a concubine, and her background was low. She could not give him any resources in the palace and had no advantage.

He could only rely on himself to fight and compete carefully with his other brothers in the Imperial Palace.

However, he was still weak and gradually revealed a disadvantage in this battle for the throne.

Yuchang Sword appearance was very important to him.

However, he didn’t expect someone to appear halfway and snatch the Yuchang Sword.

Xiao He was the Third Elder of the Longteng Academy.

The current Crown Prince was an inner disciple of the academy. With this relationship, why would Xiao He give the Yuchang Sword to him?

Xiao He didn’t expect the other party to be the Second Prince.

“I also didn’t expect that Your Highness, the Second Prince, would lose the great-great-ancestor’s sword for a mere five hundred thousand taels of gold.” Facing Chu Yuntian’s slightly hostile words, he said warmly.

“What did you say?” Chu Yuntian’s face darkened.

“Could Second Prince want to spar with this old man?” Xiao He placed his hands behind his back and smiled in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.

A terrifying aura whistled out and filled the entire venue.

A tense atmosphere arose spontaneously!

“Could it be that you want me to watch you fight?” He Chuan suddenly said indifferently.

Yao Qiankun covered his face with his hands and smiled bitterly. His big brother really did not care about anyone. Both of them were powerful existences in the Imperial Capital.

However, He Chuan looked quite dissatisfied.

This made sense.

Previously, he dared to beat up the Fourth Prince Chu Yuan in front of everyone in the Lingyun Pavilion. What else did He Chuan not dare to do?

Even if His Majesty came personally, it would be the same.

“This sword is the sword of ancestor Yun Tian. It is the imperial family’s fortune that Brother He was able to find it and return it to its original owner!” Chu Yuntian was the first to come back to his senses. The fierce light in his eyes faded, and the faint sorrow became more intense. He cupped his hands apologetically at He Chuan.

“This sword was auctioned off by this old man. I didn’t say that I would return this Yuchang Sword to the imperial family!” Xiao He, who had just retracted his aura, said.

The one who won the bid for Yuchang Sword was Elder Xiao.

The restless hearts of the people present calmed down.

Ten million taels of gold was definitely a huge sum of money. It was worth it for countless people to risk their lives and snatch it.

But wanting to snatch the Yuchang Sword from the hands of the Longteng Academy’s Third Elder was undoubtedly snatching food from the tiger’s mouth, seeking death!

“There were a total of six elders in the Longteng Academy. Besides the First Elder, this Third Elder was the strongest.”

He was a martial arts expert!

Not giving it to the royal family?

Chu Yuntian was a little surprised.

He had added the words “return it to its original owner” just now so that Xiao He would say this.

The Yuchang Sword was an opportunity for all the princes who were fighting for the throne.

Now that he had missed the opportunity, it would be very disadvantageous for him if it was given to the other princes, especially the Crown Prince. “Elder Xiao must keep his word in front of so many people!”
