645 Trouble Came
No matter what it was, as long as it was related to the Kun Peng, Lin Mo had to take a good look.
After all, he had obtained the inheritance of the Kun Peng. He had to investigate everything related to it carefully.
âSir, are you interested in the Divine Bird Bone?â
Outside Lin Moâs private room, there were guards and maids in charge of the guestsâ safety.
After all, he auctioned red items, so they had to ensure his safety during the auction.
âIâm a little interested and want to go up and take a look.â
Lin Mo smiled. He was the first to walk up the auction stage under the guidance of the maidservant.
âPlease take a look and try to attack it. I think itâs hard enough to withstand the full-force attack of the Rulers of our auction house.â
The auctioneer said to Lin Mo, revealing another secret.
âIs that soâ¦?â
Lin Mo nodded and walked up to the bone to examine it carefully.
However, it was just a bone to him, and there was nothing special about it.
Lin Mo reached out and held it in his hand. His palm glowed, and the Extreme Yang Dao Law manifested in his body.
In the next moment, he ignited the flames in his hand and enveloped the bone.
At the same time, after concealing his aura, Lin Mo stored the bone in the system space.
[The remains of the Golden-winged Roc. Its bloodline is pure. By chance, it obtained a drop of the Kun Pengâs blood essence and began to evolve toward the Kun Peng.]
[After failing and dying, the bone left behind carries the aura of the Kun Peng. It is indestructible and can be used to refine magic tools.]
The systemâs introduction came, but the result disappointed Lin Mo.
This was not the Kun Peng Bone. It was just a piece of bone from a Golden-winged Roc.
The roc failed in the end and only left some broken bones.
âIâm done examining it. This is a good material for forging.â
Lin Mo nodded. It was still somewhat valuable.
He did not want to refine weapons. Instead, he wanted to auction the bone somewhere else and get a treasure in return.
He estimated that he would be able to get a large sum of spirit stones if he continued to auction the Divine Bird Bone.
After putting down the bone, Lin Mo returned to the private room, and a few more people went up to check.
Even so, they did not get any results.
Other than its hardness, there were no other clues. It could be used for forging, but such a small piece was simply too small.
âLooks like itâs just a piece of material. Even though itâs the bone of a Saint, the divinity within it has long disappeared.â
âItâs a pity. In this way, its value will be greatly reduced. If one canât extract blood essence and divinity from it, one can only refine weapons or set up formations with itâ¦â
After examining it, the people in the private room started discussing it and felt that the value of the bone was not high.
âThe starting price is 20 million high-grade spirit stones.â
The auctioneer saw that these people were not very interested and were even trying to belittle the value of the Divine Bird Bone, so he quickly struck the auction hammer.
The auction began, but not many people were interested.
Besides, not everyone could afford to pay 20 million high-grade spirit stones.
Furthermore, the most important treasures were usually auctioned by the people in the private room at the front. The ones who were sitting in the main hall would not join in the fun.
âIâll pay 21 million.â
No one called out a bid, and the auction was silent for a full minute.
In the end, it was Lin Mo who spoke up and raised the price by one million. The boneâs value was definitely not just that.
Despite that, no one could recognize the value of the bone. This was normal. After all, if Lin Mo had not cultivated the Kun Pengâs arts and had the system, he would not have been able to see the extraordinariness of the bone.
â21 million, deal.â
The auctioneer waited for a full three minutes, and some people in the crowd were getting impatient.
Only then did he knock on the auction hammer, announcing the end of the auction.
Just like that, no one fought for the final treasure, and it was taken by Lin Mo in such a muddled mannerâ¦
â21 million. How much can we earn if we resell it?â Qilin asked curiously.
She had just been born not long ago. Even though she heard about the bone from Lin Mo, she still did not know its exact value.
âBy a conservative estimate, two heaven-grade tier 1 divine medicines. Itâs a huge profit.â
Lin Mo smiled. This bone could be used to make heaven-grade magic tools of at least rank five and above.
Although he had to find a blacksmith and prepare the rest of the materials himself, it would be worth it.
âThatâs great. Letâs go and trade. Weâll head to the next city immediately.â
Qilin cheered in joy. Under Lin Moâs influence, she had learned to be on her guard and was about to go to the next city to resell the treasure.
âDonât make a big deal out of this. Put on your cape and bamboo hat.â
After reminding Qilin, the two of them walked out of the private room and saw an unfamiliar face.
The person who came was a woman. She was followed by four or five people, each of whom was a powerful expert.
Lin Mo was also shocked by this woman. She was a first-level Ruler.
...
In this small city, there were only a few Rulers, and he met one just like thatâ¦
âCan I help you?â he asked.
Lin Mo asked with a frown. He had been keeping a low profile the entire time, trying not to attract attention. Even so, he was still targeted because of the auction of the Divine Bird Bone.
âYouâre not a familiar face here. May I know your name?â
The woman giggled and twisted her slender waist. She moved her femme fatale-like face closer to Lin Mo with a hint of charm.
âVixen, are you that thirsty? You canât wait to seduce a sugar daddy.â
On the other side, a brawny man walked out of the private room with a large horse-slashing sword on his back.
He had a fierce look that made people not dare to approach him.
âDidnât you say Iâll be lucky by your side? Trouble came so quicklyâ¦â
Lin Mo sent a voice transmission to Qilin. The man and woman were not friendly and had set their eyes on him.
âTwo people who have just advanced to Rulers. Arenât they here to give away treasures?â Qilin chuckled.
...
If it was not for the fact that the venue was not right, she would have made a move.
âIf thereâs nothing else, Iâll take my leave first. Goodbye,â Lin Mo said coldly, not giving the man and woman any face.
The two of them did not mind. The woman covered her mouth and teased, âCaptain Man Xiong, it seems like you donât have much faceâ¦â
Many people could not help but pity Lin Mo and Qilin as they watched them leave.
After offending the troublemakers, it would probably be difficult for Lin Mo and Qilin to even walk out of this cityâ¦
In the guest room, Lin Mo counted the spirit stones he had and could not help but curse.
âHow dirtyâ¦â
In Demon State, the auction house would charge a 15% service fee, which was three times that of other places.
âYeah, theyâre too dirty.â Qilin also nodded in agreement.
âLetâs go. Letâs take care of our stalkers and head to the next city.â
After being sent out of the auction house by the maidservant, before Lin Mo had the time to say anything, he pulled Qilin and leaped up.
âBoom!â
A large crack appeared where he had just been standing, and a sharp horse-slashing blade slashed down.
The force was heavy, showing the ruthlessness of the attacker.
Even if Lin Moâs physical body was extraordinary, he would still suffer some superficial injuries if the attack hit himâ¦
âThis is chaotic, but itâs good. It saves me troubleâ¦â
Lin Mo shook his head. He had just left the auction house, and the man from before was in such a hurry to make a move.
Nonetheless, this was also good. It would save him a lot of trouble. There were often battles in the city, and the people nearby were used to it.
âDonât reveal your magic tool. Letâs end this quickly.â Lin Mo grinned.
