Chapter 148: It Was Actually a Dharma Treasure

With Lin Feng saying this, the guests at the scene immediately fell silent.

Li Hongyu was so grateful she could die; her eyes were fixed straight on Lin Feng, and a rosy flush appeared on her face.

Watching the situation in the auction hall through the surveillance footage backstage, Yang Jinlong was also somewhat excited and said happily, "This Lin Feng really knows how to conduct himself; the son-in-law Su Zhenhe chose is truly not bad!"

In the hall, the man and woman sitting in the corner were anxious to the point of death!

They were absolutely certain that the Rusty Iron Ring on stage was their target, the Dharma Treasure that the Senior Sister Han they spoke of wanted!

But now, Lin Feng had suddenly appeared like a bolt from the blue, and they didn't know what to do!

"I didn't expect Lin Feng to participate in the bidding too; what should we do?" the man said, somewhat anxiously.

"He is a Martial Artist; he might have also seen that this Rusty Iron Ring is a Dharma Treasure! He speaks with such high-sounding words, but he is actually just trying to pick up a bargain!" the woman said angrily.

"Then what exactly should we do? Compete with him?" the man asked again.

"We have no choice," the woman said.

Li Hongyu was already going through the motions, calling out the first and second bids.

The man could no longer wait, so he stood up abruptly and shouted, "I bid six million!"

In an instant, everyone in the room looked toward this man in a suit.

"Someone is actually bidding on this piece of trash again; what is going on?"

"Could it be that the Rusty Iron Ring isn't simple?"

"Even if that thing really is an antique, it has already lost its value due to improper preservation; it's not worth this price at all!"

The guests at the scene couldn't stop talking over one another.

Lin Feng also looked at the man in the suit with a sharp gaze.

It wasn't just the man in the suit; Lin Feng had already discovered the woman in sportswear sitting next to him!

They were both Martial Artists!

Under the gaze of his Dragon Pupil, the flow of True Qi within their bodies had nowhere to hide; Lin Feng saw it all clearly!

Lin Feng had even determined their cultivation realms!

Both of them were in the Acquired Realm!

Yet, Lin Feng was in a bit of a dilemma.

Although these two fellows were only Acquired Realm Martial Artists and not worth mentioning, it was truly inconvenient for him to make a move in such a public place.

But if he didn't make a move, he would have to keep bidding against them. If that happened, the guests at the scene might realize the Rusty Iron Ring wasn't simple, and then the situation would become more complicated, with a greater possibility of accidents!

In just a second or two, Lin Feng considered all the possibilities.

So, he made the safest decision—to give up the bidding!

If he couldn't get it at the auction, he could snatch it privately; as long as it wasn't under the lights, any method could be used!

"I didn't expect someone to be willing to pay a higher price for this auction item. Since that's the case, I'll just give up."

Lin Feng said with a smile, and as soon as he finished speaking, he sat down.

Consequently, the man in the suit and the woman in sportswear were both stunned.

"He... he actually isn't competing with us?" the man in the suit said in disbelief.

"What is going on..." the woman in sportswear said to herself with a grave expression.

Su Mingyue grabbed Lin Feng's hand and asked anxiously, "Lin Feng, why did you stop bidding? They might not necessarily be able to outbid you."

"There are too many people here, and we aren't the only smart ones. If I continue to bid, they will definitely know this Iron Ring isn't simple, and they might participate in the bidding too," Lin Feng explained.

"But..."

Su Mingyue wanted to say something else, but Lin Feng interrupted her: "Mingyue, don't worry about it; I have my own judgment."

Afterward, Lin Feng held Su Mingyue's hand and left the venue, going backstage to pay and collect the goods, obtaining the Shining Star.

Lin Feng personally put the diamond bracelet on Su Mingyue, and the already noble and elegant Su Mingyue appeared even more radiant and dazzling.

Not staying at the Jinlong Trading Company, Lin Feng immediately took Su Mingyue and left.

But after they came out, Lin Feng said, "Mingyue, you go home first; I have something to take care of."

"I... I don't want to... don't want to go back tonight..." Su Mingyue said shyly.

"Do you want to go to a hotel again?" Lin Feng asked with a smile.

Su Mingyue gave a soft 'mm', too shy to even lift her head.

Looking at Su Mingyue's shy appearance, Lin Feng really wanted to take her right there!

However, Lin Feng still had things to do, so he said, "Then that's settled. You go to the hotel and wait for me; I'll come find you after I'm done."

Su Mingyue seemed to have guessed something and urged, "You must be careful."

"I will be careful," Lin Feng said.

More than ten minutes later, the man in the suit and the woman in sportswear also came out of the Jinlong Trading Company building.

The man in the suit said with a smile, "I didn't expect that Lin Feng would actually give up the bidding. It seems he isn't much after all."

"Don't underestimate him. I always feel he isn't simple. Perhaps he gave up the bidding just because he didn't want to make things too complicated and have any accidents happen," the woman in sportswear said worriedly.

"I think you're overthinking it; you're scaring yourself," the man in the suit said.

The woman in sportswear wanted to speak again, but suddenly, a sharp gust of wind struck!

In an instant, a black shadow darted out from the side, grabbed the woman in sportswear by the neck, and soared into the sky with her!

The man in the suit's expression changed drastically, and he roared, "Who are you! Let go of Xiuxiu!"

However, that person didn't even look back, and within the blink of an eye, they had already carried the woman in sportswear far away.

The man in the suit didn't dare to delay and hurriedly chased after them.

Thus, three figures sprinted and leaped between the tall buildings, their speed astonishingly fast!

Fifteen minutes later, in the woods on the outskirts of Jiangbei City.

The man in the suit landed on the ground with a thud, only to see that mysterious person standing a dozen meters away, holding the woman in the tracksuit high up by her neck with one hand!

It was only at this moment that the man in the suit finally saw clearly who that mysterious person was!

It was Lin Feng!

"Now, hand over that Dharma Treasure you won at the auction," Lin Feng said unhurriedly.

"And if I say no? Are you going to kill my junior sister then?" the man in the suit asked through gritted teeth.

Before Lin Feng could say anything more, the man in the suit clenched his fists and said indignantly: "Lin Feng, I thought you were a real man, but I didn't expect you to be so despicable and shameless, actually kidnapping my junior sister to threaten me!"

Lin Feng shook his head and said calmly: "You are mistaken. I didn't kidnap your junior sister to threaten you with her; I just used this method to bring you both here. There are too many people in the city center, which is inconvenient for taking action, but this is a good place to do so."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Feng threw the woman in the tracksuit out, tossing her toward the man in the suit.

The man in the suit hurriedly caught the woman in the tracksuit and asked with concern: "Xiuxiu, are you alright?"
