Chapter 360 Auction
"That's Xiaoqi, right?" An elder of the Lin family said to Lin Xie who was beside Bai Chenxing.
As soon as Bai Chenxing and others appeared, they became the focus of everyone's attention.
"It should be." Lin Xie had been disfigured for more than ten years. Now that Lin Xie had restored his original appearance, several elders of the Lin family almost couldn't recognize him.
"Xiao Xie is really good-looking!" a senior couldn't help but sigh.
Before Lin Xie was disfigured, although he looked good, he was a bit reserved and seemed a bit petty.
I don’t know if she has let go now, or if she is more beautiful than before, but she has a very charming and extraordinary air.
"Xiao Qi, Senior Bai and Senior Ling have entered the auction venue together." An elder of the Lin family murmured.
Elder Lin San sighed lightly. It was a pity that the family had invested so much effort in Lin Yu, but now it was all in vain.
Lin Xie, who had been mistreated by the family for a long time, has now become the family's only savior. Unfortunately, the Lin family has been too cold to Lin Xie over the years, and Lin Xie should have given up on the Lin family.
Lin Xie followed Bai Chenxing and others into the Bai family's private room.
Guests of the auction venue came in one after another. The various invitations that the Bai family had auctioned previously included high-end and low-end ones. The Lin family got the lowest level ones, the Wu Zun level, and most of them were invitations to the private rooms.
The private rooms reserved for the Bai and Ling families at the auction are naturally the best.
When Bai Chenxing and Ling Chuan arrived, the people in charge of the auction immediately served them pastries and fruit plates.
…
In the box.
"Mr. Lin, you and Master Mu Dan look like a perfect couple!" Ling Chuan said to Lin Xie in a mischievous tone.
Lin Xie was stunned for a moment and smiled, then said awkwardly, "Senior Ling, you're joking." Ling Chuan was a prominent figure in Zhongzhou. In front of such a high-level weapon refiner, Lin Xie couldn't help but feel reserved.
"When do you plan to get married?" Ling Chuan asked.
Lin Xie hesitated for a moment, his eyes widened, and he said in a panic: "Senior Ling, this is too fast..."
Ling Chuan said to Lin Xie proudly, "Not any more. Back then, when A Kun and I met, we fell in love at first sight. It's been a long time since we met."
Qu Kun was stuffing the pastries into his mouth as they came up, but when he heard Ling Chuan's words, he choked and gasped.
Qu Xinyang handed Qu Kun a cup of spiritual water and said, "Mom and Dad, are you okay?"
Qu Kun shook his head and said, "It's okay."
Love at first sight, love at first sight, damn it, he didn’t even see Ling Chuan’s appearance clearly at that time, okay?
Lin Xie smiled awkwardly and said, "Senior Ling is a master. I can't reach your level..."
"That's true." Ling Chuan said.
Lin Xie: “…”
Qu Kun looked at Ling Chuan and said, "Shut up and say less." Damn bastard, is it worth being proud of the fact that he forced himself on me the moment we met?
Ling Chuan looked at Qu Kun with a smile and said, "Okay! If you want me to shut up, I will shut up..."
Qu Kun: “…”
Lin Xie looked at Mu Yuanfeng, rubbed his hands, and said to Mu Yuanfeng, "Senior Ling and Senior Qu have a really good relationship."
"You two seniors are an old couple, so naturally you have a good relationship." Mu Yuanfeng replied as a matter of course.
Bai Chenxing twitched the corner of his mouth. Naturally, Bai Chenxing could not hide the voice transmission of Mu Yuanfeng and Lin Xie, and the same was true for Qu Kun and Ling Chuan.
Qu Kun's face was distorted, while Ling Chuan looked very proud.
Qu Xinyang saw Bai Chenxing smiling radiantly, and pinched Bai Chenxing for no apparent reason.
Bai Chenxing smiled at Qu Xinyang with embarrassment.
…
A group of cultivators came in one after another holding invitations.
The well-trained auction staff led the monks to their respective seats.
Lin Xie unexpectedly found the figure of the Lin family's eldest elder in the crowd. The Lin family's eldest elder had the cultivation level of a seven-star martial master and held a high position of power in the Lin family. Lin Xie could not easily see Lin He. However, such a person with an extraordinary status in the Lin family might not be as strong as a guard captain of the Bai family.
Thirty level eight pills were divided into three batches for auction, with the first batch being the auction of ten level eight pills.
Although Danta has eighth-level alchemists, they rarely refine pills. The auction of the eighth-level pills has made all the martial masters excited.
"Grandpa, this auction is so lively!" He Jingyue said, looking at the people outside.
He Xian nodded and said, "Yes!"
There are dozens of martial arts masters participating in the auction this time.
Mu Chen was finally nice to He Xian. He Xian bought two level eight pills from Mu Chen at a low price.
As soon as the eighth-level elixir appeared, its price rose rapidly.
…
The eldest elder of the Lin family couldn't help but feel a little uneasy as he sat in his seat.
The rapidly rising bids at the venue made the Lin family's eldest elder tremble with fear.
Eighth-level spiritual herbs, ninth-level spiritual herbs, spiritual veins, various rare treasures... were all reported. Any one of them would be enough to bankrupt the Lin family.
"Master Mu Dan, we are going to make a fortune this time." The second elder of the Lin family couldn't help but say.
Lin He smiled bitterly and said, "That's right." Not to mention this auction, even the previous auction of invitations would have made a lot of money.
A ninth-level alchemist has a different reaction. With just one move, he can make a lot of money.
The little bit that showed through Muchen's fingers was worth thousands or hundreds of years of struggle of the entire Lin family.
"Have you seen Xiaoqi?" Lin He asked with a frown.
"No, he should have gone to the private room." said the second elder of the Lin family.
"I think so." Lin He sighed.
The venue was filled with many experts, so Lin He did not dare to release his soul power to test anything easily.
The competition for the eighth-level elixir was as fierce as tea. The martial masters were arguing so hard that their faces turned red and their necks became angry, while the martial masters did not dare to say a word.
The auction of seventh-level elixirs was also very popular.
Lin He originally thought that the things the Lin family brought were more than enough to buy a Moon Soul Pill, but he didn't know that there were too many important people present. The price of each pill rose wildly as it came out. With just a little encouragement from the auctioneer at the auction, the price of the pill quickly broke through the limit.
Lin He smiled bitterly. Even if Lin Yu had not been crippled, with the strength of their Lin family, they could not afford the Moon Soul Pill.
"What happened between Xiaoqi and Mu Yuanfeng? Does Mu Yuanfeng have a good impression of Xiaoqi?" the second elder of the Lin family couldn't help but ask.
If Lin Xie hooks up with Mu Yuanfeng, even if she is just a concubine, I think the Lin family will still be able to gain a lot of benefits.
Ling Chuan looked at Lin Xie and said, "Xiao Xie! My seventh brother has always wanted twins, but he has never been able to have them. How about you adopt him as his son?"
Lin Xie was stunned for a moment and said, "Is this okay?"
"Of course. I think my seventh brother will like you." Ling Chuan said as a matter of course.
Lin Xie lowered his head and couldn't help but hesitate.
Mu Yuanfeng reached out and held Lin Xie's hand, saying: "Since the senior has said so, just agree to it." Ling Chuan would not harm Lin Xie. Lin Xie was born in a humble family, and by becoming Ling Chen's adopted son, Lin Xie's background has improved.
Upon hearing this, Lin Xie nodded towards Ling Chuan and said, "Thank you, Senior Ling, for your kindness."
Ling Chuan smiled and said, "You're welcome. From now on, we're all family."
Qu Kun looked at the smile on Ling Chuan's face and felt that this man's smile was full of cunning.
…
Bai family.
"Mu Chen, the auction has already started for a while." Ye Shi said as he walked into the spirit tower.
"I know." The initial auction proceeds had been returned to him one after another.
Ye Shi tilted his head and said, "Do you want to go and take a look?"
Mu Chen shook his head and said, "No need. My father-in-law and grandfather are here. It doesn't matter whether I go or not."
"That's not necessarily true. Mu Chen, you are very popular. If you go there, maybe the price of the pills can double." Ye Shi said.
Mu Chen smiled bitterly and said, "Do you think all the martial masters who participated in the auction are crazy about flowers?"
Ye Shi: "..."
“Elders, if you want to exchange feelings, we don’t need to go,” Cai Chen said.
Ye Shi nodded and said, "That's true!"
"By the way, do you know what the situation is like for Luo He, the Lin family, and the Yu family?" Mu Chen asked.
Ye Shi shrugged and said, "Luo He is disabled and no one knows where he is now. Yu Jin of the Yu family has a broken leg, and I heard that Lin Yu of the Lin family was disfigured by her enemy..."
Mu Chen narrowed his eyes. Luo He was disabled and Yu Jin was miserable. For a cultivator, a lingering life was more painful than death. The future of these two people would surely not be good.
What a pity, Lin Yu...this woman is so cheap. It's too easy for her to just be disfigured.
However, this woman is the half-sister of his future father and mother! Involving blood ties would be troublesome.
"If father marries Lin Xie, do we have to give a betrothal gift to the Lin family?" Ye Shi asked.
The Lin family is not someone that people like, but after all, that is Lin Xie’s maternal family. If he doesn’t give them anything, Lin Xie will be looked down upon.
Mu Chen smiled and said, "Just give me something if you can make do with it."
"How much do you plan to pay?" Ye Shi asked.
Mu Chen smiled and said, "Two level seven pills."
Ye Shi frowned and said, "Isn't that too stingy?"
Mu Chen sneered and said, "I do want to be generous, but the Lin family has to be worthy of it!"
Ye Shi looked at Mu Chen and said, "Mu Chen, do you know any secrets?"
Mu Chen sighed, "Lin He knows a seventh-level alchemist named Leng Yan. That alchemist is extremely cruel and likes to study unconventional alchemy techniques. He likes to use living souls to make pills. Although he is a seventh-level alchemist, he is a poison master that people avoid as much as possible among alchemists."
"Could it be that this poison maker has set his sights on Lin Xie?" Ye Shi asked.
Mu Chen nodded and said, "That's about right. Back then, Lin Xie was just a Martial King. The alchemist seemed to want to use Lin Xie's soul to refine it, hoping that Lin Ze would sell Lin Xie to him for the price of two level six pills."
Ye Shi widened his eyes and said, "Lin Ze won't agree."
Mu Chen shook his head and said, "I don't know either. I asked someone at the Immortal Pavilion and they said he hesitated at the time. The alchemist gave Lin Ze a month to think about it. But during that month, the alchemist's alchemy backfired and his enemies came to find him, and he died."
Ye Shi suddenly felt a chill down his spine. Ye Xun treated him badly, but that was because he was not Ye Xun's biological son. However, Lin Xie...
Ye Shi frowned and asked, "Does Lin Xie know about Leng Yan's situation?"
Mu Chen shook his head and said, "I don't know either. I probably don't know."
