Chapter 969: Paying for Life



Long Yi's fingers tapped lightly on the table. He always felt that things were not that simple.

How could he possibly consider the overall situation when his only son was already dead?

Even if this kind of thing happened to me, I probably wouldn't be able to do it so well.

However, even he couldn't figure out what the problem was, but he still had to be on guard recently.

"Miss Yaoyue, there is a guest outside the door."

As they were talking, they saw a man guarding the door coming towards them, holding his fist and speaking respectfully.

Since the auction has been established and the items in the auction have been put in order, for safety reasons, Yaoyue has also transferred a lot of people from the Lingdong area, all of whom are their confidants.

"guest?"

"Don't guests come here every day?"

Yao Yue crossed her legs and replied with a smile.

"This guest is a little different. He specifically wants you to receive him, claiming that what he wants is too valuable and we simply can't accommodate him. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, no one will be held responsible."

The man then gave a few introductions.

"What a big tone."

"Ever since the auction opened in Nanjun, I've never encountered such a boastful person."

"I'm a little curious, how big a business is he going to do with us?"

Yao Yue stood up and prepared to go out the door.

"Do you want me to go with you?"

Long Yi quickly followed up with a question.

"Let me handle the auction myself, so you don't have to worry about it."

Yao Yue spoke with a smile, still feeling warm in her heart. There were many people who cared about her, but only Long Yi's concern made her happy.

"Then if anything happens, call me anytime."

Long Yi gave another instruction and saw Yao Yue heading to the side.

At the same time, in front of the main gate.

A young man was standing right here, holding a fan in his hand and fanning himself triumphantly.

"Is Miss Yaoyue coming or not?"

"If he doesn't show up, I won't keep you company."

"My time is also very precious. I don't have time to waste it here with you guys."

The young man added a few words impatiently.

"What a big tone."

"Everyone who comes to our auction has something to ask for, and everyone needs to be respectful when they see me."

"You are a young man, but you are very impatient."

A sound like a silver bell was heard, and the people present stood respectfully on both sides. Yao Yue had arrived.

"Presumably, this should be Miss Yaoyue, right?"

"I've long heard that Miss Yaoyue is incredibly charming and stunning, a rare beauty. Now that I've seen her, I can see that her reputation is well-deserved."

"Miss Yaoyue is not only beautiful, but also very strong. I wonder who will be able to marry her in the future?"

The young man spoke with a playful look on his face.

The people present looked at each other, and their expressions became much uglier.

They stayed here every day and saw many people coming and going, but few dared to talk to Yaoyue like that.

The words were even more frivolous!

It's really hateful!

However, Yao Yue was a woman who had seen many ups and downs, so she naturally didn't take the young man's words to heart. Instead, she smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment. As for who will marry me in the future, I really don't know. But at least one thing is certain, and that is that it has nothing to do with you."

"Tell me, what do you want from this auction?"

"As long as you can afford the price, even if you want the moon in the sky, we will find a way to pick it down for you."

The young man grinned, put away the fan in his hand, looked around, and said lightly: "Are we going to discuss business here?"

"Of course not. Please come in."

Yao Yue made a gesture of invitation and led the way, and the young man behind her followed her footsteps.

As the two entered the hall, Long Yi and Ximen Xuan still did not leave, but just sat by the window and talked.

The two men's eyes would fall on the young man from time to time.

"Something seems to be wrong with this young man."

Ximen Xuan spoke without changing his expression.

"This young man possesses extremely overbearing true energy. He must be a master of cultivation. However, he has concealed this overbearing true energy. It seems that this young man is deliberately trying to hide something."

Although Ximen Xuan's strength is not that great, he is the eldest son of the Ximen family after all, so his eyes are naturally very poisonous.

I could see the clues at a glance.

Long Yi also nodded, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then continued: "When things are abnormal, there must be something wrong."

"On a normal day, there are quite a few people with cultivation coming and going at the auction, and naturally there are some who are very powerful. However, this is the first time I have encountered a young man who deliberately concealed his strength."

"Anyway, we're just sitting here. Even if he wants to play some tricks, he has to get past us first. Otherwise, even if he has three heads and six arms, he won't be able to make any waves here."

The corner of Long Yi's mouth curled up slightly, everything was under his control.

The fact that their business has grown so big is not just luck, but also the result of their ability.

If it was a fight, Yao Yue was naturally no match for him, but if it was business, Yao Yue was much better than him.

If this woman was not a good business person, she would not have been favored by the four major directors.

While Long Yi and the other man were observing the young man, the young man's gaze also drifted to Long Yi and the other man, but he did not linger for long and quickly shifted his gaze.

"Now, can you tell me what you want?"

Yao Yue asked straight to the point.

"What I want is not here with you right now."

The young man deliberately kept the question a secret, then laughed mysteriously and said in a low voice, "Besides some items in the auction, I wonder if there are any that can help me kill someone?"

"What I want is that man's head."

As soon as these words were spoken, Yao Yue's expression changed and her tone became heavier.

"I'm sorry, our auction is a legitimate business and we never engage in such activities as murder and robbery."

"Since we are not on the same page, please leave first."

"If you continue to waste time here, you won't get what you want. It's better to look somewhere else. Maybe there will be a turning point."
