Everyone was completely silent. That was a spirit stone, and even a stone-cutting site might not be able to produce pure spirit stones. Everyone's eyes began to turn greedy, and they looked at Mu Huan with different eyes.
Mu Huan naturally knew that wealth should not be revealed to others, but if not, this auction would be very boring.
"Sister Hong Zhao, since none of the uncles and aunts are bidding, this third-grade potion will be mine." Mu Huan's face was full of pride.
"Of course. This third-grade potion costs the young master one thousand spirit stones."
"Two thousand." The visitor interrupted Hong Zhao. Somehow, Hong Zhao felt relieved.
Oh, finally here. But Mu Huan still couldn't show his true emotions on the surface. "I was wondering who it was, it turned out to be the head of the Hua family."
If I hadn't received the news that you were coming this morning, I really wouldn't have come to interfere. Mu Huan's eyes were full of calculation and cunning. Everything was as expected.
The Hua family is arguably the most peculiar of the four great families, as women are considered the most important, while men are forbidden from public appearances. The current head of the Hua family, Hua Yue, is even more resourceful. In just five years, she has already forced the Su family out of the four great families, replacing them as one of the four great families.
"Miss Mu, you are really courageous. She took a thousand spirit stones as soon as she said so. I wonder if the head of the Mu family knows that his daughter is doing such a foolish thing outside." Hua Yue saw through Mu Huan's true gender hidden under the boy's clothes at a glance.
"My father dotes on me, and everyone in the entire Cang Xiu country knows that!" Mu Huan easily jumped down from the railing on the second floor, stood in front of Hua Yue, and looked straight into Hua Yue's eyes.
"Why does Patriarch Hua wear a veil when she goes out? Is she too ugly to face people?" Mu Huan's words were full of thorns, piercing Hua Yue's heart. Everyone in Cang Xiu Nation knew that Hua Yue had disfigured herself for a son of the Temple of Light, yet still received no respect from him.
Everyone present took a deep breath. This little girl had the courage to expose Hua Yue's scar in public. She was truly courageous. But she was still too young. Everyone shook their heads and sighed.
Hua Yue suppressed her anger and kept a smile on her face. Just as she was about to speak, a veiled girl next to her drew her sword and pointed it at Mu Huan.
"How dare you be rude to my mother." The speaker was Hua Yue's second daughter Hua Yu. Although she was wearing a veil, Mu Huan recognized her voice the first time.
Oh, she also had a part in what happened back then. Mu Huan reached out and gently removed Hua Yu's sword, "Miss, I haven't done anything yet, why did you resort to knife-wielding? Does that mean that now my words have to depend on other people's expressions?"
Mu Huan's eyes gradually began to turn cold, but on the surface he still looked nonchalant.
"Hua Yu, step back." Hua Yue coldly ordered Hua Yu to retreat. Then, looking at Mu Huan, she said, "I know you went to the temple because my daughter was chosen to become a saint, and you didn't. I embarrassed you in public. I understand. It's understandable for a little girl to be jealous." Everyone sighed. So that's how it was.
Mu Huan wasn't annoyed, because she already knew the other person's rank. But jealous? Envious? Old lady, how can you see that? !! This girl eats well, sleeps well, and has fun every day. How can you tell that I need to be jealous of your daughter?
Of course, Mu Huan also knew that he had acted impulsively today, but if it weren't for... A little impatience can ruin a big plan, so I will be patient.
Mu Huan looked at Hua Yue with a smile, "Auntie, what you said is indeed right! Huan'er is actually very envious of Sister Hua Ling. Sister is beautiful and talented. It is only right that she is chosen by the Temple." Mu Huan reached out and wiped away the tears that did not exist, sobbing.
But because her sleeves were covering her face, everyone present thought Mu Huan was crying. She was, after all, just a little girl.
"Master Hua, you have to be considerate of the little girl."
"That's right, Master Hua, please forgive others when you can."
"Master Hua, you are several generations older than that girl, why are you so petty?"
Hua Yue listened to the intermittent voices of others asking for an explanation for Mu Huan, and felt like blood was about to spurt out of her throat.
"Aunt Hua, Huan'er knows he was wrong. I will never act like a child again. I will learn from Sister Hua Ling and become an excellent person." Mu Huan listened to these nonsense coming out of his mouth, suppressing his discomfort and putting a smile on his face.
At this point, what else could Hua Yue say? If she continued, the people here would probably drown her with their spitting, not to mention Mu Yuntian, who doted on his daughter. She was just a little girl, and she could be taught a lesson later.
"It's okay. I understand children. I'm a mother too. What happened today was just a child's fight. Let's just leave it at that." After saying that, she turned to Hong Zhao.
"Miss Hong Zhao, I wonder if this third-grade potion belongs to me now."
Hong Zhao watched a good show for free and almost lost his mind. After hearing Hua Yue's voice, "Of course, this third-grade potion belongs to you. If you want to pay now, please go to the back room. Of course, if you still want to auction, I will arrange a seat for you immediately." Hong Zhao was holding back his laughter in his heart. It was really hard to see this old woman make a fool of herself.
Hua Yue was a very smart old woman, so she could naturally see Hong Zhao's mood at the moment, but she couldn't get angry in public. After all, this was still the Yun family's territory. "No need, just go to the back room to pay."
"Okay." Hong Zhao called the attendant and whispered a few words in the attendant's ear. The attendant then took Hua Yue and his group away from the venue.
"Alright, everyone, the auction continues now." Hong Zhao's words revealed a sense of mystery. "This is our last lot today, and it's also the highlight of the day. I'm sure everyone will be very interested!"
Hong Zhao paused. "Of course, this item isn't here right now. We can only wait for someone to bid for it and then take it to the warehouse with us. After all, this item is truly special."
"Miss Hong Zhao, please stop keeping me in suspense and tell me now."
"Yes, everyone is waiting."
Hong Zhao covered his mouth and laughed, "This item is from a parallel space. Legend has it that it is an ancient battlefield with many treasures and the remains of monsters. It is a paradise for spiritual practitioners. Of course, you don't have to worry about the origin of this item." Hong Zhao saw the doubts on everyone's faces.
"This was something that the Third Master of the Yun Family found by chance. However, even if a man is innocent, he is guilty of possessing a treasure. Therefore, the Third Master chose to offer it for auction. The Third Master said that if it is won by the right person, it would be a great opportunity."
So if he sold it to someone else, he wouldn't be guilty of possessing the treasure? Mu Huan tugged at the corner of his mouth with a sneer. These big families, nowadays, are really lying without blinking an eye.
"Start filming now!"
