The next morning, Meng Fan was woken up by the continuous ringing of his mobile phone. He had rested very late last night, so he hadn't really rested for long that night. Although he was extremely unwilling, he still got up to answer the call.

"Meng Fan?" "The matter of Cheng Ying has already begun?" Liu Xia's slightly hoarse voice came over the phone the moment he answered the call. From the other party's tone, he seemed to have received the news a long time ago, but for some reason, he had been calling Meng Fan. But seeing the other party's impatient expression, he had probably endured for a long time.

"Yes!" They gave it to the people in the dark last night, and they'll start working. "Has the news spread out?" After hearing what Liu Xia said, Meng Fan seemed to remember something. His spirits immediately lifted, and he asked a question.

This matter was not only related to him, but also the fate of many people. Although Chengying was only a sword in the eyes of some people, the historical value of him being a shadow was immeasurable. Not to mention, with such an ancient famous sword in the world, even a person would have some thoughts about it.

"It's more than just the beginning! "I'm afraid that everyone knows about the appearance of Chengying now!" Liu Xia could only bitterly smile at Meng Fan's words as he helplessly explained.

"What?" Meng Fan was shocked. He had never imagined that things would turn out like this. He had been wondering how the news would spread, but from Liu Xia's words, it seemed like the information regarding Cheng Ying was no longer a secret.

"Take a look at the news yourself! "If you hand Shadow over to Dark, they will tell you. I'll go arrange other things first, I'll communicate with you in time if anything happens!" Liu Xia didn't seem to have any intention of explaining anything to Meng Fan. After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone as if there was something urgent for him to take care of.

Meng Fan didn't care much about this. He was a bit suspicious of the news that Liu Xia was telling him. He didn't dare to delay any longer. After putting on his clothes, he went downstairs and quickly turned on the TV, ignoring the shocked gazes of the others.

"This morning, the auction manager of Binhai City received one of the top ten ancient swords, the Shadow Bearing Sword. After an expert's appraisal, he confirmed it to be the Shadow Bearing Sword and decided to publicly auction this antique in one month! "The Shadow Bearing Sword is said to be from the ancient times. When was it not formed, and after that …"

Meng Fan had just turned on the television and was currently broadcasting news about the Shadow Bearing Sword. At the same time, he posted quite a few pictures of the Shadow Bearing Sword, as well as some introductions of the Shadow Bearing Sword. Meng Fan naturally didn't have much interest in the introductions. At this moment, he had already been shocked by this piece of news.

He did not expect that the secret news would spread out like this. From the content of the news, it was obvious that everyone knew about it. Most likely, even children would know about it if they went out on the streets.

Meng Fan had never imagined that the news regarding the other side would be auctioned off in public. After all, this was one of the top ten ancient swords, Cheng Ying.

Regardless of who it was, if they had the sword, they wouldn't be able to hide it. Who would be so foolish as to auction off an antique like this? How could money even measure its worth? It was simply priceless!

But now, the people in the dark had started to act. Meng Fan was momentarily unable to understand what the other party was thinking, and as soon as he saw the news, he was shocked. However, after thinking about it, he understood a lot of things.

"How is it? "Is this effective?" Just when Meng Fan was shocked by the news and standing in front of the TV screen in a daze, Shadow suddenly appeared next to him. He looked at the TV screen and saw the description of Chengying, and asked with a smile.

"It's really effective!" However, other than the people in the dark, no one else would dare to do that! I'm convinced! " Facing Shadow's words, Meng Fan could only helplessly let out a bitter laugh. He immediately reacted, giving Shadow a meaningful look before sitting down on the sofa as if he was considering something.

He did not feel that there was anything wrong with doing this. Since Cheng Ying wanted to make an appearance, this so-called public auction was naturally one of the most widely spread news.

At this moment, the conversation between Meng Fan and Shadow was naturally heard by Liu Xu and Zhou Qing. They didn't care about the bickering between Meng Fan and Shadow. Instead, they were attracted by the news.

Although they both knew about Cheng Ying and Zhou Qing had gone to the Dragon City with Meng Fan to retrieve the Cheng Ying, they had not expected the situation to develop to this extent. The news of the auction was truly shocking.

"Auction? You want to sell it? " After a moment of shock, Zhou Qing looked at Meng Fan with a stunned expression. Even Liu Xu was the same. Clearly, they couldn't understand why Meng Fan would want to sell his Cheng Ying.

From their point of view, Meng Fan was not someone who lacked money. Not to mention that Meng Fan didn't have much use for money, he also had a stake in the Soaring Dragon company. If they really did use money, as long as they greeted Liu Xu, they wouldn't sell anything for money.

Moreover, they knew clearly that Cheng Ying was an ancient famous sword. If he really went to auction it, he would sell it for a sky-high price, but that fool would actually sell it for such priceless things!

"It's you guys?" As she was thinking, Zhou Qing suddenly thought of something, and asked as she looked at Ying Ying.

"Don't worry about it for now. Chengying will not sell it. This is just a collaboration. It will end very soon!" Seeing the two girls acting in such a manner, Meng Fan gave a hollow laugh, but didn't explain any further.

Hearing Meng Fan's words, the two women did not pursue the matter any further. Liu Xu did not know what was going on, but they were curious as to why Meng Fan had auctioned off the items. Now that they heard Meng Fan's words, they naturally were too lazy to ask any further.

On the other hand, Zhou Qing seemed to be thinking about the conversation Meng Fan had with the old man last night. She looked at Shadow suspiciously, then followed Liu Xu out of the living room and went to prepare breakfast.

After the two women left, Meng Fan bitterly smiled. He was somewhat regretful that he had learned of the hidden plan so early in the morning. As the owner of Chengying, he did not wish for things to turn out like this.

But now that he had started his plan, he didn't have the right to interfere to change the other party's mind. Moreover, everything had already come to a conclusion, even if he wanted to change it, there was no one around and he could only passively accept the reappearance of the world.

At the same time, in various places on the coast, the news of the Chengying auction had spread like wildfire. As long as one had a bit of strength, they would pay special attention to the Chengying auction. Although there were a lot of people who were paying attention to the auction, they still hoped to be able to obtain the Chengying auction.

Not only Binhai, but the news of Chengying's reappearance spread to other areas at an unimaginable speed. Especially for those who had already been stationed at Binhai, they had long since received news of his reappearance.

Upon receiving the news of Chengying, many forces began to deploy a large number of men to the coast. At the same time, in order to investigate this matter through various channels, almost every force seemed to have a firm grasp of Chengying's position.1

Even some of the foreign consortia had started to buy Chengying. After all, Chengying was one of the top ten ancient swords. It was not something those ancient antiques could compare to.

He remembered that a long time ago, there were many records of priceless auctions. All of these items contained a long history behind them, but compared to the current Cheng Ying, they were still lacking a little bit.

As one of the top ten ancient swords, every single one of them was a legendary existence. Now that they had suddenly appeared in front of people, the antique definitely could not be compared to them. In terms of collection value, they were definitely priceless treasures.

Not to mention that as a famous sword that existed in this world, its casting technique was definitely one of a kind. Although it might not be comparable to the production of all machine tools, it was still an inconceivable existence considering the circumstances of the times.

Even though the technology in the society today was advanced, but in terms of cold weapons and steel smelting techniques, it was not advanced to a certain extent.

In terms of steps and manufacturing, as long as someone was willing to work hard, they would definitely produce something much better than the ones produced in the past. This was also the other reason behind the fact that Chengying was able to do so.

Of course, this didn't mean that people could imitate the smelting techniques of the ancients. However, for some large consortium companies, as long as they could get the movie, it was not only equivalent to buying a priceless treasure but might even be able to improve their smelting techniques. After all, some military industries weren't all mechanized.

However, Meng Fan obviously didn't care about this. To him, Cheng Ying was a sword, a sharp weapon that could kill in his hands. Naturally, he wouldn't care about anything else.

As the news of Chengying spread, more and more people began to share their fantasies. There were even more people who began to investigate everything related to Shadow, regardless of the cost.

For the next few days, the entire coastal area was in a state of explosion, and even the number of people in the city had increased by 5%. It could be seen how attractive the appearance of a shadow was to those people.

The second day after the news had spread out, Meng Fan had received Shadow Brand's Cheng Ying. Meng Fan was very pleased that the old man had been able to fulfill his promise, so he immediately hid Cheng Ying Xue.

It wasn't until this point that Meng Fan came to understand all of Shadow's plans. After acquiring Shadow, they didn't actually want to auction it off. Instead, they had used this time to make a total of five copies that were exactly the same.

Meng Fan didn't care about this at all. As long as the other party could return the real image, he didn't care how many copies there were outside. He even hoped that some of the copy would be made in the dark, so that the real image in his hand would be much safer.

However, during this period of time, the only thing that made Meng Fan happy was that although the news of the appearance of Cheng Ying had spread to everyone, no one had come to cause trouble for him. A week had passed, and he had not been disturbed by anyone, as if everything had nothing to do with him.

Meng Fan was actually very happy about the result. If he could avoid danger, who would take the initiative to provoke trouble? Since no one was looking for him, he could afford to be free. However, there was always a shadow behind him, which he wasn't used to.

It was rather funny, Meng Fan was originally Zhou Qing's bodyguard, so it was normal for him to follow Zhou Qing out of class. However, the shadow continued to follow Meng Fan, as if he was Meng Fan's bodyguard.
