Chapter 118: You’ve Misunderstood Me!
Heavenly Forbidden Immortal Stone!
It was one of the universe’s most extraordinary immortal stones. It could be inscribed with the spells of forbidden systems, and was the main material for making magical and rare instruments.
However, given his current poor ability, Ye Feng could only make it into a typical magical instrument.
“Auction?”When he recalled Master Gu’s words, Ye Feng’s eyes flickered as he decided to take a look inside.
…
Gu’s Auction House was a nationwide private auction house. It existed in the Antique Row of every city and province.
When Ye Feng arrived at the gate of Gu’s Auction House, he had noticed a youth slowly approaching him.
“Grand master?”
Ye Feng became shortly stunned. He quickly turned around and found it was Xu Teng, Xu Guang’s grandson.
Previously, Xu Teng’s leg was broken by Xu Guang after he offended Ye Feng. It seemed that he had almost recovered.“You’ve recovered?” Ye Feng became shortly stunned as he questioned young master Teng with a smile.
After hearing his words, Xu Teng instantly grew anxious when he recalled offending Ye Feng the last time they met. He then bowed towards Ye Feng with a faint blush, saying, “Grand master, I was ignorant; sorry for offending you last time! Thank you for saving me!”
After Xu Guang broke Xu Teng’s leg, he received medicine from Ye Feng. Otherwise, Xu Teng may still be lying in bed to this moment.
While Ye Feng was busy chatting with Xu Teng, he suddenly heard a sarcastic voice, “Yo! Is that the idiot who exchanged Four-constellation Chaotic Tea Pot for a stone?”
‘Hmm?’
After hearing the loud voice, Xu Teng became shortly stunned. He then realized who it was as his face turned gloomy, “Mo Tao, what did you say?”
It was the same two men and women, lead by the youth in white that Ye Feng had just met.
After taking a look at Ye Feng, the youth in white sneered at Xu Teng, “Heh heh… young master Teng, I’ve not imagined that you know this idiot!”
‘Idiot?’
After hearing Mo Tao’s insult, Xu Teng’s face turned dreadfully gloomy in an instant as he shouted, “Mo Tao, shut up! If you dare insult my grand master again, I will beat you to your last gasp of air!”
Even with the previous events, Xu Teng admired Ye Feng very much.
Even his grandpa and Bloody Ghost had succumbed to him.
Xu Teng couldn’t allow Mo Tao to insult his idol!
When Mo Tao and his friends heard the two words ‘Grand master’, they became shortly stunned. Closely after that, they burst out into laughter.
“Grand master? Haha… I’ve not imagined that the famous young master Teng in southern China could admit an idiot as his grand master! If this news spread throughout southern China, young master Teng would definitely become the biggest laughing stock among all the young masters!”
The three friends were beginning to make a scene, causing Xu Teng to become gradually gloomier.
Right then, Ye Feng uttered, “Idiot!”
‘What!’
Mo Tao’s face instantly froze when he heard Ye Feng’s words. He then gazed at him with a harsh look and asked, “Brat, you dared to swear at me?”
“No, no, no! You must have misunderstood me!” Ye Feng hurriedly waved his hand and attempted to explain himself while Mo Tao and his pals were losing their temper, “I was just insulting the word idiot!”
‘What!’
After hearing Ye Feng’s reasoning, Mo Tao and his pals became shortly stunned; closely after, they finally understood Ye Feng’s point.
Not until then did they realize that Ye Feng was insulting the word idiot by using it on them.
‘Jerk!’
Mo Tao and his two friends were utterly tempted to beat Ye Feng!
Right then, Xu Teng blocked Ye Feng as he gazed at Mo Tao with fierce qi, roaring, “Mo Tao, if you dare attack my grand master, I promise that you will not leave Antique Row!”
After hearing Xu Teng’s words, Mo Tao’s face lit up in shock.
He didn’t fear Ye Feng at all; but he did fear Xu Teng.
He knew that Xu Teng’s power in Jiangshi City was much greater than his.
Mo Tao and his pals wiped their expressions off their faces before smiling at Ye Feng and saying, “Brat, young master Teng might protect you for the time being; but he cannot protect you forever! See you around!”
Before walking away, Mo Tao and his pals took one more glare at Ye Feng before turning around and entering the auction house.
Xu Teng then told Ye Feng, “Grand master, that boy is Mo Tao and he is from one of the richest clans in southern China. You should take care of yourself. He always seeks revenge for the smallest grievance.”
After hearing Xu Teng’s solemn warning, Ye Feng nodded silently.
They then entered Gu’s Auction House.
…
Gu’s Auction House was very boisterous!
All the seats had been taken by moguls who came for bidding; some from Jiangshi City, some from southern China, and some from other places.
After entering the auction house, Ye Feng and Xu Teng sat down in a corner.
10 minutes later, the entire auction house had been filled. The auction then began.
It was the venerable Master Gu who hosted the auction! He was the owner of Gu’s Auction House!
After a brief greeting, he started the auction!
“Dear friends, the first rarity of today is the ‘Green Leaves falling in Autumn Frost’ painted by Tao Ziqian, a famous calligrapher and painter in the Ming Dynasty! We will start the auction at 1 million RMB. We will continue with 500,000 RMB for each price markup! Now, let’s start!”
Closely after Master Gu’s words, the intense bidding came to a start.
Ye Feng was not interested in the first item.
He sat in his seat silently while slicing at his Heavenly Forbidden Immortal Stone with his knife.
This knife was very sharp.
He nearly sliced his own skin with each stroke.
Xu Teng had no clue what Ye Feng was trying to achieve, but he knew he must have his reasons; therefore, he minded his own business.
The bidding proceeded step by step.
“Next, we’re going to auction Blackvine Grass! This herbal medicine is found in extremely cold areas like snowy mountains; it can only grow 1 cm per decade! In traditional Chinese medicine, it’s called ‘The Grass of Longevity’! It can extend one’s life span and purify one’s blood and qi!”
Master Gu introduced it wile frothing at his lips, “Now, let’s start the bidding! The lowest price for Blackvine Grass is 2 million RMB! We will mark it up by 500,000 RMB!”
After hearing Master Gu’s words, Ye Feng suddenly became still.
He looked up at the herbal medicine on the stage with great ecstasy!
‘Blackvine Grass! It’s one of the main ingredients to make a Body-Explosion Pill!
“2.5 million RMB!”
“3 million RMB!”
“3.5 million RMB!”
…
The moguls began to bid fiercely.
They didn’t lack money; but they lacked life span. Therefore, they were greatly frenzied about the grass of longevity.
In the blink of an eye, the price of Blackvine Grass reached 8 million RMB!
Right then, “20 million RMB!”
Ye Feng’s bid caused the entire auction house to plunge into silence.
All the moguls in the present were shocked. Apparently, it was out of their imagination that someone could be so luxurious that they would spend 20 million RMB on herbal medicine.
However, when they thought that 20 million RMB was the final price, another voice sounded, “30 million RMB!”
…
The entire auction house went in hubbubs!
Everyone turned their heads towards the bidder as they found it was Mo Tao, the young master of the Mo Clan!
Mo Tao revealed a playful smile towards Ye Feng as he erected his fifth finger and waved it in front of Ye Feng.
What a provocative move!
