âYan Rong, how strong are you now?â
âNinth-level dragon transformation realm!â Yan Rong immediately replied.
âDo you know who the sect master of the Qing Huai Holy Land is now?â
âI do. Back then, Masterâs favorite little junior brother, deputy sect master Qing Xiao, was also the person who cared about me the most. Unfortunately, he was imprisoned by the wicked people all these years! One day, Iâll definitely save all of them!â Yan Rong said fiercely as if he hated his own incompetence.
âSigh...â Lin Mo looked at Yan Rong and sighed helplessly. He was also a person who had a hard life! However, he had a somewhat different view. It was just that saying it out loud was a little too hurtful!
âWhy donât you cultivate in the Lin auction house first? After youâve recovered your strength, you can go and take revenge. How about it?â Lin Mo could see that Yan Rong was already penniless. If he were to leave now, he would probably have to sleep on the streets!
âOh no, I canât!â Yan Rong hurriedly shook his head when he heard that.
âI canât repay your kindness. Now that I have a glimmer of hope for revenge, how can I trouble you?â as he said that, he was about to walk out.
âWhy are you in such a rush? Why donât you recuperate here first before setting off? Of course, I donât do business at a loss. If you stay in my auction house, I need you to be my guard to ensure the safety of this auction house. How about it?â
âIf thatâs the case, then it would be impolite for me to refuse!â Yan Rongâs tone was a little choked up, and he stood at the door, not daring to turn his head.
âMiao Qing, bring Yan Rong to find a room to stay in. From now on, heâll be a guard of our auction house!â
âYes, Master!â
...
At night, in Lin Moâs room.
âMaster, are you really letting a person youâve never met become a guard at the auction house? If he...â Miao Qingâs tone was agitated.
âMiao Qing, you canât just look at the surface. Do you know how much the three items he took out today are worth? Three treasures for a total of 300,000 spirit stones!â
âWhat?! 300,000 spirit stones? Master, then weâve picked up a huge bargain!â Miao Qing said excitedly.
âYan Rong really doesnât know the value of these items, but I believe in the judgment of the people in the sacred land. Otherwise, he wouldnât have bid 200,000 spirit stones for the Autumn Frost Sword Art!â
âMaster, are you saying that he knows that these three items are treasures, but he doesnât know much they are worth?â
âHe definitely knows the value isnât 200,000 spirit stones!â
âMaster, then Iâm a little confused. Then, he did this because...â
âBecause of what you said on the stage! And also because of what I did when I went to see him. Otherwise, weâd probably only be able to get two treasures this time!â
âAh?â Miao Qing exclaimed, his pupils dilating.
âThatâs right. How can I be suspicious of such a righteous person?â
âOh right, guard the warehouse for the next few nights to prevent anyone from causing trouble! At the same time, continue to purchase auction items from Lin City. Spread the news that our auction houseâs commission will be reduced to 10%!â
âIn the next few days, Iâll be cultivating. If thereâs nothing else, donât disturb me!â Lin Mo issued a few orders to him.
âYes, Master!â
...
In the Bai clan residence.
âTrash! All a bunch of trash!
âIâve raised you all for nothing after all these years!
âYou donât even know that the Lin clan is hiding such a treasure. I also donât know what youâve done in hiding!â
Bai Wuheng smashed the last vase in the room with all his might as he scolded the figure kneeling on the ground.
âDidnât you say that youâve become the confidant of the Lin clanâs higher-ups? How could they not show any signs of auctioning such a precious item?â
The secret agent kneeling on the ground was suffering. Everything had been fine previously, and he had already obtained the list of items to be auctioned. In the end, Lin Mo suddenly descended from the sky and messed everything up.
âItâs a good thing that I went today. Otherwise, I might not even know that the Zhao clan has an additional sealing formation! I almost missed the opportunity to weaken the strength of both clans!ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âIâm sorry, clan leader. Iâll pack up my belongings now!â
Packing up was the slang of the Bai clanâs secret agents. It meant that he was prepared to commit suicide!
âForget it! Iâll give you another chance. Go to Lin Moâs subordinate. I want all of his information! Everything! Even the color of his underwear!â
âYes! Thank you for your trust, Master. I wonât let you down!â
The secret agent kowtowed hard, producing a dull thud.
...
âSomeone!â
Not long after, another voice came from Bai Wuhengâs room.
âClan leader, what are your orders?â
âCall Master Kun Cheng over. I have the key to negotiate with him!â
âNo need! Iâm already here!â A loud voice suddenly sounded from outside the door.
âOh, Master Kun Cheng, why are you here?â Bai Wuheng hurriedly stood up to welcome him. With his identity as a formation master, even if Kun Chengâs cultivation was low, no one would dare to look down on him.
There were even more experts who wanted to volunteer to be his bodyguards!
Therefore, Bai Wuheng was extremely polite to Kun Cheng. The subordinates in the room also tactfully left on their own accord.
âMaster Bai is killing everyone in the Lin auction house today. Youâre incomparably awe-inspiring! Hahaha!â Master Kun Cheng walked in on his own and ignored the debris on the ground as he sat down on a chair.
âSigh, isnât that just to guard against villains? In this day and age, there are always people who overestimate themselves and want to try everything!â
âMaster Kun Cheng, please take a look. This is todayâs spoils of war. Itâs a sixth-level cultivation array â Eight Directions Forbidden Array!â Even though Master Kun Cheng did not express his stance, Bai Wuheng still took the initiative to offer up the auction proceeds.
âHahaha, I still have to thank Master Bai for his generous trust. Iâll study this formation and start upgrading all of the Bai residenceâs defensive formations!â
âIâve been looking everywhere for the Eight Directions Forbidden Array but unfortunately, Iâve never been able to study it. Today, Iâve finally achieved my wish!â after flipping through the round wooden formation plate in his hands twice, Kun Cheng said confidently.
âThe design of this array board coincides with some of my ideas. This can increase the speed of analyzing the array formation by at least five times!â
âDonât worry, clan leader Bai. This time, Iâm confident that from the day the array formation is completed, even if a fifth-level dragon transformation realm expert comes, Iâll make him suffer!â
âOh, then the matter of upgrading the array formation will all depend on you. Itâs still the same. Hand over the list of required materials to the people below. They will have everything ready!â
âGood! I like to make friends with heroes like clan leader Bai! In less than ten days, the formation will definitely be upgraded!â
