Chapter 172 Lin Fan's Anger And Disappointment
"Oh, aren't you Li Shenhu? What a coincidence we met here, and you also brought some friends I see." Zhang Fei'er said in a provocative tone.
Li Shenhu immediately looked at Zhang Fei'er and frowned upon hearing her words.
"Zhang Fei'er, I didn't expect you to be here." Li Shenhu narrowed his eyes.
"Why not? This place is public, right?" Zhang Fei'er smiled faintly.
"Master Lin, let's leave him." Li Shenhu ignored Zhang Fei'er and whispered to Lin Fan.
Without further ado, the two of them went inside and left Zhang Fei'er.
Zhang Fei'er only smiled faintly when she saw Li Shenhu leave.
She did have some enmity with him before, of course, she always won.
This was also due to the animosity between the two families.
...
Zhou Yuan and Wei Zhilan arrived at the auction area.
It wasn't a big auction, so not many people attended. Unlike a large auction that was supposed to be attended by hundreds of people.
Zhou Yuan and Wei Zhilan walked into the building, but Zhou Yuan subconsciously saw a familiar figure who is also walking into the building.
Surely she was Zhang Fei'er.
"What a coincidence." Zhou Yuan grinned.
Then, he walked up to her, and Wei Zhilan just follow him.
"What a coincidence we met here." Zhou Yuan said lightly.
Zhang Fei'er stopped and immediately turned around when she heard this voice.
She was surprised to find that it was Zhou Yuan.
"Zhou Yuan, you are also here?"
"Yeah. Just wanted to buy some items." Zhou Yuan smiled faintly.
"That's great, come with me." Zhang Fei'er smiled.
"Sure."
They went inside.
.......
They arrived at the auction room. This place is like a hall that has a stage that is used to introduce items.
And in front of it, there are many chairs that have been prepared. There are at least 70 people in this room.
However sitting on one of the chairs, Lin Fan's expression was not good as he looked at someone.
'That bastard Zhou Yuan, how can he be everywhere? He's always there when I want something.' Lin Fan said coldly in his heart.
He was astonished and started to wonder if Zhou Yuan was also reborn? But in that case, Zhou Yuan would definitely think about correcting his mistakes instead of dealing with him.
But he is still calm. He was previously an extremely powerful cultivator and possessed thousands of techniques, different from the mere mortal Zhou Yuan.
He admitted that Zhou Yuan was indeed a very powerful person, perhaps he was a True Qi like himself.
Even though the future changed a lot, but he wouldn't let the same thing happen again.
He was about to start seriously facing Zhou Yuan.
.....
The host of the auction was an old man in his 50s, wearing formal attire and had a friendly smile on his face.
"Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your presence at our little auction. We will always appreciate it." The auctioneer smiled and said politely.
"There are many auction items that all have value in the eyes of the right people and true to our name, most of the auction items are about herbs and pharmaceutical-related ones," he added.
Many people nodded. They already knew this and that's why this auction wasn't that big in favor of herbal and pharmaceutical items.
"Okay, no need for further ado. Let's start the auction."
.....
"Fiery Lily petals, sold to man number 23 for 2 million Yuan."
"Aura condensing pill, sold to mistress number 19 for 9 million Yuan."
"Tianxi honey bee essence, sold to man number 2 for 39 million Yuan."
...
Many auction items have already been sold, these items are like a treasure trove for interested people and experts in the pharmaceutical field.
But Zhou Yuan and Lin Fan were still not interested in those items.
"This time it's the feixi plant, a plant that only grows in hot lava areas, used for antidotes or body refreshments. But this plant is different from the usual, it is special because it grows on the Gobi mountain, a giant mountain that is famous for its many myths. The first bid is 0 and the next bid is 100,000." The auctioneer said.
"200,000 Yuan."
"400,000."
"600,000 Yuan."
"3 million Yuan."
The bids stopped at 3 million Yuan after a few seconds of silence.
"Oh? Looks like we've seen the winner here." The auctioneer smiled.
He took a hammer to beat it on the table....
"3,5 million."
But someone suddenly bid.
"Oh, the numbers keep going up." The auctioneer smiled.
He looked at the man who was bidding, it was Lin Fan.
"5 million Yuan."
Someone suddenly bid.
Lin Fan frowned when he saw who had bid, it was Zhang Fei'er.
"This woman, what does she want with that plant?" Lin Fan frowned.
"Oh, 5 million Yuan, here we go." The auctioneer said.
"6 million Yuan." Lin Fan bid again.
"15 million Yuan." Zhang Fei'er said without hesitation.
"Wow, 15 million Yuan, here we go." The auctioneer said.
Lin Fan's expression darkened, and he looked at Zhang Fei'er with a sharp gaze. He didn't expect that this woman would dare to bid 15 million Yuan for the plant.
He couldn't lose the plant. Aside from its benefits, he could see that it was indeed not an ordinary feixi plant, but an extremely rare type.
He needed this for his cultivation.
"20 million Yuan." Lin Fan did not give up.
"30 million Yuan." Zhang Fei'er said without hesitation, even she smiled as if it was nothing.
"Wow, 30 million for a feixi plant!" The auctioneer said.
Many people were also surprised. They didn't expect the price of the plant to soar by 30 million yuan.
"No one bidding anymore?"
One second, two seconds, three seconds, and 7 seconds passed and there was no response from anyone.
"Okay, then it sells to lady number 9 for 30 million Yuan." The auctioneer said.
Hearing this, Zhang Fei'er smiled lightly. She didn't really want this plant, but Zhou Yuan told her the benefits of it and promised her an elixir that could keep her young.
She did not doubt Zhou Yuan in the least after what he had shown her earlier.
Meanwhile, Zhou Yuan smiled with satisfaction when he saw the hologram in front of him.
[You managed to make Lin Fan lose the feixi plant, reduce his lucky points by -30 and you get 300 villain points]
300 villain points.... This feels small compared to his current number of villain points, but that doesn't mean he's disappointed, he's quite satisfied.
.......
"Master Lin, that woman is indeed cunning! It's actually my fault, the Zhang family has been at enmity with my family for a long time, and so have I and Zhang Fei'er. Perhaps it was because of me that Zhang Fei'er wanted that plant." Li Shenhu said guiltily.
"(Sigh) Shenhu, you don't need to blame yourself. I knew this flow." Lin Fan said lightly.
Li Shenhu only nodded when he heard this, but he looked coldly at Zhang Fei'er.
In contrast to Li Shenhu, Lin Fan looked coldly at Zhou Yuan. He was sure that it was this person who influenced Zhang Fei'er.
Although it was only a guess, but he was already certain in his heart.
.....
"Okay, let's move on to the next item. This time, I hope the masters here recognize this item." The auctioneer said as he opened a trunk-sized chest on the table.
It was a strange plant that looked like a stringy, stringy bean.
But to some people including Lin Fan and Zhou Yuan, this was a treasure.
"The first bid is 0 and the next is 500,000 Yuan." The auctioneer said.
"2 million Yuan."
"3 million Yuan."
"6 million Yuan."
"9 million..."
...
There were a lot of people bidding and it stopped at 35 million yuan.
Ignoring the price, Lin Fan looked at the plant continuously. He didn't know the name of the plant, but he did know one thing. It is a divine plant!
Which he should get.
He was about to pick up the number he held...
"100 million Yuan."
But he stopped when someone suddenly bid.
Lin Fan was taken aback and his expression turned to one of fury in the next second. It turned out that the bidder was Zhang Fei'er again.
And 100 million Yuan.... He doesn't have that kind of money.
"Master Lin, Zhang Fei'er has gone too far. We have to teach her a lesson!" Li Shenhu said angrily.
Lin Fan did not answer and only looked at Zhou Yuan. That person smiled mockingly at him, he could see that it was an intentional mockery.
He could only clench his fists. 100 million Yuan was something he couldn't afford.
He only brought 50 million.
In the end, he could only give up the divine plants.
....
[You managed to make Lin Fan lose his divine plant, reducing his lucky points by -70 and you get 700 villain points]
Already twice in this place, he had cut off Lin Fan's chances without expending any extra effort.
He only needed to influence Zhang Fei'er and he immediately believed it. This actually makes it easier.
"Zhou Yuan, do you believe what you're saying? I spent a lot of money on that." Zhang Fei'er asked doubtfully.
"Just trust me. I'll show you what I'm capable of tomorrow." Zhou Yuan said confidently.
"Well, if you're that confident, then I can only trust you. And... you don't need to show me what you're capable of tomorrow, after all, I'm free tonight." Zhang Fei'er said seductively.
