I Inherit An Auction House At The Start, Trillion Times Rebate! Chapter 169 - Zi Yue’s Fury!

Hearing this, Zi Yue was slightly stunned, and a trace of joy appeared on her face. “City lord, could it be that you’ve already received news of Qianqian?”

Qin Xiao clearly did not know that this rich woman who claid to be from the Purple Cloud Holy Land was the eighth prince of the Yanhuang Divine Empire.

Moreover, Qianqian was the mysterious person who was captured by Lin Mo.

City Lord Qin Xiao’s expression was sowhat unsightly as he said, “I’ve just received news that the finale of this auction is a maid who has just been captured.”

“What, maid?”

Zi Yue’s expression changed, and then she thought of sothing. Her cold and elegant face beca sowhat unsightly. “You an that the maid that the Lin family is going to auction is Qianqian?”

City Lord Qin Xiao nodded, “Most likely. According to the news, she is a Dragon Transformation Realm expert. It is not sothing that can be seen everywhere. Moreover, she happens to be a woman.”

“Impudent!”

Zi Yue’s expression instantly turned extrely ugly. Her entire body emitted a cold and indifferent aura, “They... how dare they...”

City Lord Qin Xiao’s heart skipped a beat, he was afraid that Zi Yue would lose her temper here, “Lady Zi Yue, please calm down. This is the Lin auction house, the Lin family’s territory. Since the other party is able to casually take down a Dragon Transformation Realm expert, it can be seen how terrifying their strength is. We must not offend them now.”

Ever since Qianqian went to the Lin family and disappeared, City Lord Qin Xiao had been living in fear and trepidation all day long.

This was also the first ti he understood how terrifying Lin Mo’s strength was.

To think that even when a Dragon Transformation Realm expert made a move, there would be no news at all.

This made City Lord Qin Xiao feel extrely fearful and sowhat lucky.

It was lucky he did not rashly make a move against the Lin family back then. Otherwise, he might have already disappeared from this world.

When Zi Yue heard this, she was silent for a mont before she finally cald down. She looked at City Lord Qin Xiao and said, “You don’t have to worry about the money. Later on, no matter what, you must buy Qianqian.”

Sensing Zi Yue’s cold gaze, City Lord Qin Xiao’s heart tightened. He quickly agreed, “I’ll do my best!”

Zi Yue sat in the private room and looked at everything in the auction. A cold light flashed in her eyes.

There had always been auctions for slaves, but there were also several types of slaves.

The Yanhuang Divine Empire only allowed cultivators to be auctioned off. The cultivators that were auctioned off still enjoyed human rights, but their social status would beco the bidder’s ‘retainers’. In other words, they would beco subordinates.

The retainer culture had a huge impact. In the distant Nihong country, which was an island country in the corner of the Yanhuang Divine Empire, the retainer culture was a unique feature. It had developed over a hundred families, as well as warriors, martial arts, and the like.

“Lin Mo, you’re really good. You actually managed to survive under my arrangents... That’s fine, but knowing that you’re in danger, you didn’t run and even used Qianqian as bait to lure the snake out of its hole!”

Zi Yue’s expression was sowhat exasperated. The reason why she ended up like this was that she had underestimated Lin Mo’s strength when the knockout incense had attacked Lin Mo so easily.

...

At the sa ti...

“So it’s the first elder of the Duanmu clan who has co in person. Sorry for not welcoming you in person. I hope you can forgive ...”

At the entrance of the auction house, Wu Jin smiled warmly at an old man.

“You’re too polite!”

The old man smiled and said, “I heard that there will be a Dragon Transformation Realm expert getting auctioned off at this auction. This old man ca to Lin city specifically for this cultivator.”

“A retainer in the Dragon Transformation Realm is a powerful assistant.”

Wu Jin cupped his fists and said, “Then I wish the first elder can get what you want.”

On the side, many local forces of Lin City were surprised to see Wu Jin being so polite to the old man. They began to discuss among themselves.

“What is the background of this old man? Miao Qing is the leader of the Lin auction house. How could he be so polite to him?”

“Didn’t you hear? He is the first elder of the Duanmu clan!”

“Oh my God, it’s the famous Duanmu clan! Their businesses are all over the Yanhuang Divine Empire and Great Yan Divine Empire. Even the city lord’s manor can’t afford to offend them.”

“The one who entered just now is the strongest person in the Duanmu clan, and also the first elder of the Duanmu clan. I think all of you have heard of his na before.”

“I know that. The na of this great elder of Duanmu clan is Duanmu Cheng. His na is quite well-known in Great Yan Divine Empire... In the past, he single-handedly killed off the most rampant and ferocious Dark Cyclone rcenary Group in Great Yan Divine Empire!”

“You must know that the strength of that Dark Cyclone rcenary Group is not to be underestimated!”

“With such a great reputation, this first elder should be an expert who is at the Dragon Transformation Realm right?” soone asked.

“Of course, but the reason why Duanmu Cheng has such a great reputation and status is mainly because of his other identity.” As he spoke up to this point, his face turned strange.

“What identity?” soone asked.

“When he was young, this first elder once joined the ancient martial clan of Great Yan Divine Empire. Later on, because he had to manage the clan affairs, he left the Ancient Martial Arts clan. However, that fellow is quite clever. Although he has left the Ancient Martial Arts clan, every year, he would hand over an extrely large amount of offerings to the Ancient Martial Arts clan. Moreover, every ti the higher-ups of the Ancient Martial Arts clan had a joyous occasion, he would personally go and congratulate them. He is a very tactful person.”

“It’s said that when the sect master of the Ancient Martial Arts clan accepted a disciple more than ten years ago, that guy was also invited. Ever since he returned from the Ancient Martial Arts clan, that guy has been talking about this matter and bragging about it all over the world. Of course, being able to participate in the sect master’s disciple acceptance ceremony is indeed quite enviable...”

Even though he said this, this person still shook his head lightly. It was clear that he had so slight disdain in his heart for Duanmu Cheng.

...

Lin Mo waited in the private room for a mont before the auction hall was finally filled.

After waiting for a mont, clear bell chis slowly resounded throughout the auction hall.

Following the sound of the bell, the extrely noisy noise in the auction hall gradually weakened. Countless pairs of eyes were thrown towards the auction stage in the middle, their eyes filled with fervor.

At this mont, the host and auctioneer of this auction, Wu Jin, slowly stepped onto the auction stage.

Upon seeing Wu Jin’s appearance, the originally noisy auction house imdiately quieted down. Everyone present focused their attention on him.

Everyone had heard that from yesterday onwards, Wu Jin and Miao Qing had officially beco the senior executives of the Lin auction house.

Following Lin Mo, Wu Jin, and Miao Qing, these two lowly figures, had also welcod their own glory!

“Hehe, everyone, I think you must be getting impatient from waiting. Since that’s the case, I won’t say any more official words to annoy you.”

Wu Jin stood on the auction stage, beaming as he looked at the dark mass of people in the venue. Finally, his obscure gaze swept across the factions in the private room, and his clear voice reverberated throughout the venue.

As an experienced auctioneer, he clearly knew what the people below wanted to see and what they did not want to see. Hence, he directly threw away the useless introduction of the opening ceremony. However, it was true.

Wu Jin’s move had indeed won the applause of the entire hall. At the very least, even Lin Mo nodded his head slightly.

“As the only auction house in Lin City, I believe that the auction hosted by our Lin auction house this ti will definitely not disappoint everyone.”
