Chapter 95
Manager He broke out in a cold sweat on his back. He had been with the young master for many years, but had never seen him so angry.
Today is the first time that the young master got angry.
He looked at the gate that had been destroyed and harmed innocent people, and he couldn't stop shaking all over.
He kicked off with his back foot and flew directly towards the scuffling crowd.
"Stop!" he shouted.
The people who had just been fighting were separated and pushed back to both sides.
Manager He glanced at the gatekeeper with a bruised face and nose. His blood pressure rose sharply and the two whiskers at the corners of his mouth twitched twice in anger.
"You're fighting in front of the attic door. That's outrageous!"
The gatekeepers felt a chill on their backs and quickly knelt on the ground to beg Steward He: "Steward, please be careful. This time someone is deliberately causing trouble. We are only venting our anger for you, so..."
"Bullshit! You don't tell a single word of truth. The He family is truly unlucky to have someone like you!"
Ye Lan quickly interrupted the man. Seeing that the person coming was an old acquaintance, he quickly pointed at the jade pendant held by the gatekeeper and said, "So it's Manager He. You're not unfamiliar with the origin of this jade pendant. I just explained it to them. Your young master lent it to me for the auction."
"That's not what they said, that it was stolen, right? Since Ye's words don't carry any weight, they will definitely believe your words as the manager."
After Ye Lan finished speaking, before Manager He could even open his mouth, a golden light hit the gatekeeper.
"Ah!" the man screamed.
Everyone saw that the golden light directly wrapped around the jade pendant that Ye Lan mentioned and went towards the back of the crowd.
The leader of the gatekeepers vomited blood and lay on the ground trembling, pretending to be dead.
The other gatekeepers didn't understand why this happened and suddenly stood in front of him to block it.
He Fanxin slowly walked out from behind the crowd, his handsome face now covered with a silver mask.
He was playing with the culprit of this farce in his hand. Before everyone knew who this person was, they heard his cold voice.
"How can your dirty hands take my jade pendant! If you don't understand the rules of the He family, you will be expelled from the He family. Don't bring shame to our He family." After He Fanxin finished speaking, he was already standing in front of Ye Lan.
His tone became kind, completely different from the coldness he had before.
"Brother Ye, don't be angry. It's He's fault for not bringing me up properly. Brother Ye, please go in first. Today's expenses will be on He's shoulders. Consider it an apology."
Having gotten the upper hand, Ye Lan didn't want to continue to pester, but he still had to be polite. He said, "How could I do that? But Brother He has spoken so well. It would be tactless for me to refuse. So, I thank Brother He."
If you don’t take advantage of an opportunity, you are a bastard!
Besides, there are definitely a lot of good things at the auction!
After Ye Lan finished speaking, he turned and walked inside.
When the people watching the excitement outside saw that the situation had calmed down, they dispersed.
The guards following He Fanxin arrested the gatekeeper who was causing trouble and took him away. He Fanxin glanced at Manager He with a meaningful look and then walked in.
Ye Lan was guided along the way and came to a private room with an excellent location in the auction venue and sat down.
There was no one around, so the treasure-hunting rat slipped out from the collar of his shirt.
"Wow, Master, this is what you humans call an auction! This is too luxurious!"
Next to the chair they were sitting on was a South Sea pearl inlaid.
This size is probably considered top-notch in the Starry Continent, and it is actually inlaid here as a decoration.
Ye Lan raised his head and looked toward the other private rooms outside the window. He found that there was not only one South Sea pearl next to his room, but almost every private room had such a South Sea pearl next to the seat.
Ye Lan was still sighing when he saw the lights in the entire attic dim, and suddenly a beam of light shone on the center of the stage.
I saw a very beautiful and charming woman with a veil on her face, walking slowly with light and seductive steps, and stopped in the middle.
The woman waved her sleeves, glanced around the venue with a smile, and said, "Welcome all immortal friends to our He family's once-in-a-century auction. All auction items will go to the highest bidder, but you must bid within your means. If you win but cannot afford it, you will bear the consequences yourself."
As soon as she finished speaking, the venue erupted in the joyful screams of the male cultivators.
Ye Lan was completely confused. He didn't know the identity of this woman, who could actually cause all the male cultivators in the venue to cheer excitedly.
A cultivator from an unknown sect in the private room suddenly shouted, "Fairy Miaoyin is truly extraordinary. It's rare to see her in a hundred years, and she's still as beautiful as ever!"
"Yeah yeah!"
The fairy called Miaoyin raised her hand to her mouth and chuckled, "You guys are still the same as before, nothing new."
It's been hundreds of years, and the same words are said every time.
Miaoyin clapped her hands, and suddenly saw something like a booth appear beside her.
However, the first auction item placed in the center of the booth was covered by a red cloth, and no one could see the auction item underneath through the red cloth.
Miaoyin noticed that everyone's eyes had shifted away from her and fallen on the auction items beside her.
With a slight flick of her jade-white fingertips, the red cloth was instantly torn off, revealing the appearance of the auction item.
"This is the Jade Bone Flower, which is rare in a thousand years. It can help people with broken bones and tendons to reconnect them. The starting price is one hundred high-quality spirit stones." After these words fell, everyone sighed.
Everyone who practices cultivation knows that having good luck in overcoming tribulations means successfully overcoming the tribulation and improving one’s cultivation.
If one is unlucky, at best his cultivation will regress, and at worst his bones and muscles will be broken, making it impossible for him to cultivate again and he will have no chance of becoming an immortal.
Therefore, as soon as this item came out, everyone wanted to fight for it and leave a way out.
"I want it! Don't fight with our Killing Blood Alliance! Two hundred high-grade spirit stones!" An old man's voice came from a private room on the right.
Upon hearing this, the people in the private room on the left immediately raised the price: "Who are you, the Blood-Slaying Alliance? How can you compare with our Wuqing Sect? Five hundred high-grade spirit stones!"
For a moment, everyone was shouting prices one after another, and the jade bone flower that originally cost one hundred high-grade spirit stones was sold at a sky-high price.
Two thousand high-quality spirit stones.
Ye Lan's hand slipped when he heard the price. He then heard the Fairy Miaoyin on the stage excitedly say, "The number one fairy friend bids two thousand and one high-grade spirit stones!"
"..." Ye Lan looked at the hand pressing on the South Sea pearl with tears in her eyes. Although the entire consumption was paid by the He family's son, the first one was so expensive...
I’m afraid anyone would feel bad if they were in his shoes!
Ye Lan listened to the dead silence around him, and felt even more panicked.
Fairy Miaoyin took advantage of the victory and began to shout, "Are there any other immortal friends who would like to bid? Two thousand and one high-grade spirit stones for one time! Two thousand and one high-grade spirit stones for two times! Two thousand and one high-grade spirit stones for three times!"
