Chapter 489: Selling a Piece of News

In the private room!

Lin Chen looked at the fiery auction below and watched the many martial artists bidding, and he also watched with great interest.

However, he did not take action.

Relying on the resources given by his master, he is not short of ordinary elixirs for the Innate stage now. There are not many treasures in the normal auction house that can catch his eye.

"Lord, there is something to inform you."

Yu Jin had just received the manager's notice and went out of the private room. Now that she is back, there is a look of apology on her face.

"The Quenching Crystal Sand at this auction will no longer be auctioned."

"Hmm?"

Lin Chen turned his head. Although he did not put pressure on Yu Jin, as an Innate expert, just one look made Yu Jin feel great pressure.

"I came to the auction house this time, and the only thing I took a fancy to was this Quenching Crystal Sand. Now you tell me that the Quenching Crystal Sand is not auctioned?"

Yu Jin's head hung lower, even with panic. She did not expect that this Lord was actually here for the Quenching Crystal Sand.

"Lord, please calm your anger. This is the news notified by the manager. I don't know the specific situation."

"Since you don't know, let someone who knows about this matter come over."

Facing Yu Jin, Lin Chen did not get angry at her, but he did not cherish the jade and pity the fragrance. He said to Yin Yue a moment ago that the owner behind this Guangwu auction house had a good business mind, but he didn't expect to be slapped in the face the next moment.

"Lord, please wait a moment!"

Yu Jin walked out of the private room with a pale face and hurried towards the other end of the corridor. She pushed open a curtain and walked in. It was full of maids with the same status as her, and sitting at the very top was an old man.

Seeing Yu Jin come in, the old man also frowned: "It seems that there are quite a few people here for the Quenching Crystal Sand this time. This auction house is going to bleed heavily."

Regarding why the auction of Quenching Crystal Sand was suddenly banned, the old man also learned the reason from the owner.

This auction is also the heavy treasure of the Quenching Crystal Sand. Banning the Quenching Crystal Sand will inevitably make many Innate experts who come here dissatisfied, and the owner's meaning is to give these Innate experts some compensation.

Originally thought that it would only need to be supplemented by seven or eight, but I didn't expect that there were actually more than twenty.

The old man knew clearly that among them, there were many who didn't have any thoughts about the Quenching Crystal Sand, but they also took this opportunity to express dissatisfaction with the auction house, just wanting to get compensation.

"For those below the second stage of Innate, give each one a compensation of one hundred Yan coins. Pay attention to the wording."

The old man looked at the maids in the room. One hundred Yan coins is not much for those Innate first-stage martial artists with backgrounds, but for some martial artists who have just entered Innate without strong backgrounds, it is also a not small amount.

Letting these maids pay attention to the wording is because as Innate experts, they naturally want face, and they cannot let the other party feel that the auction house is giving one hundred Yan coins to dismiss them.

Although the meaning is this meaning, what is expressed is another layer of meaning, and he believes that the maids present can all do this.

As the old man's voice fell, more than ten maids walked out. Looking at the more than ten people still left in the room, the old man had a headache.

The second stage of Innate and the first stage of Innate, although they are only one stage apart, their status is very different.

Giving one hundred Yan coins to an Innate first-stage expert is to dismiss them. Another reason is that these Innate first-stage experts also have to weigh the strength and background of the owner. Even if they are really dissatisfied in their hearts, they dare not say anything more.

But second-stage Innate experts are different. The owner himself is a second-stage Innate expert. Although he has a third-stage Innate master supporting him, the owner's master has several disciples. Because of this kind of thing, the owner will definitely not disturb his master.

Thirteen second-stage Innate experts, nine of whom he knows, some are from Jiushan Island and some from other islands, none of them are easy to solve, and there are four others whose origins he doesn't even know.

The auction house does business without asking about the origins of customers, as long as they can afford Yan coins.

These people don't say it's one hundred Yan coins, I'm afraid three hundred Yan coins are hard to dismiss.

Just as the old man was thinking about how to make the anger of these second-stage Innate experts disappear, the curtain moved without wind, and a figure appeared at the door.

"Lord Sun!"

Looking at the figure appearing at the door, the old man stood up quickly.

"Let your owner come out, I need an explanation."

Looking at the gloomy face of this Lord Sun, the old man did not dare to neglect, and quickly said: "Lord Sun, please wait, I will notify the owner."

He is only at the first stage of Innate, and he hasn't broken through for long. At his age, it is impossible to have any breakthroughs in martial arts. But this Lord Sun is different. He is already at the late second stage of Innate before the age of fifty, and has a chance to break through to the third stage of Innate.

A quarter of an hour later, Lin Chen, who was waiting in the private room, saw Yu Jin again.

It's just that Yu Jin's face was extremely pale at the moment, as if she had suffered some kind of fright, and the look in her eyes looking at Lin Chen was also full of fear: "L... Lord, the owner invites you to discuss the Quenching Crystal Sand."

"Yes."

Lin Chen nodded. After Yu Jin went out, he did not use his spirit sense to peek, so seeing Yu Jin's expression at the moment, there was also a look of doubt in his eyes.

How did she become like a frightened rabbit after going out once?

"Go with me, or stay here?"

However, Lin Chen did not get to the bottom of it, but looked at Yin Yue.

"I won't go."

Yin Yue shook her head and stared at the auction outside the glass with great interest. At this moment, the auction below was still in full swing. Lin Chen knew that these auction items could not arouse Yin Yue's interest. Yin Yue should be interested in this fiery atmosphere.

As a princess of the Moon Soul Clan, she should have never seen such a scene where everyone competes for price.

"Then wait for me to come back in the private room."

Lin Chen was not worried about Yin Yue's safety. As long as he was willing, the entire auction house could be covered by his spirit sense. Earlier, he didn't intend to peek at other people's privacy, but leaving Yin Yue in the private room, his spirit sense naturally had to pay attention to this side.

Innate martial artists, do not release spirit sense at will!

This is his master's exhortation to him. In his master's words, peeking will make people addicted. If an Innate martial artist gets used to peeking at the secrets of people around him with spirit sense, it will become a habit over time, and spirit sense peeking is a taboo in the Yan Imperial Dynasty. One day when you meet a strong person, you will fall on this.

Out of the private room, Yu Jin led the way in front. Feeling Yu Jin's tense and nervous body, Lin Chen thought about it and comforted her: "This time it is your owner's problem, and it has nothing to do with you. I will not vent my anger on you."

"Th... thank you, Senior."

Hearing Lin Chen's words, Yu Jin quickly turned back to thank him, and her body was slightly more relaxed than before.

It's not that Yu Jin is nervous. Just now, she saw a woman who came to the auction house with her, and her head was smashed by a Lord in front of her.

Just because this Lord questioned the manager, the woman's body was close to the Lord, and she persuaded him to "calm down", so she was slapped to death by that Lord.

"Just a plaything, dare to speak in front of me."

Thinking of the Lord's words, Yu Jin realized that even if they were good-looking, they were just playthings in the eyes of these Lords.

The reason why that person dared to speak was because she served that Lord in the private room, thinking that with this relationship, she could speak in front of the Lord. Now it seems that they were wishful thinking.

For Yu Jin, she chose to come to the auction house to be a maid. First, because she could get a lot of Yan coin commissions, and second, because she had a fantasy in her heart, hoping to be seen by a Lord and taken away. But now the death of her companion made her have no fantasies.

Yu Jin took Lin Chen to the third floor and finally stopped in front of a gilded copper door.

"Lord, please come in!"

Yu Jin pushed the door open. Lin Chen didn't say anything and stepped into it.

This copper door can block spirit sense detection, but it should only be aimed at spirit sense below the third stage of Innate. His spirit sense was slightly hindered, just like a thin film, and after he increased the intensity of his spirit sense, he immediately entered.

He knew exactly what was going on inside the door.

On the contrary, Yu Jin, who led the way, pushed the door open and followed in. Seeing the situation inside the door, her beautiful eyes had a look of surprise.

In the extremely luxurious hall, more than a dozen tables were placed. Most of the tables were sitting with an Innate martial artist, and there were young girls serving by their side. Several of them were directly soft and fragrant in their arms, moving up and down, playing very happily.

Lin Chen blinked. If he wasn't sure that these were all second-stage Innate experts, he would have suspected that he had entered the wrong place and walked to some kind of gathering.

"This distinguished guest, please take a seat. Please wait a moment, my owner will come later."

In the hall, the old man smiled. Lin Chen found a table nearby and sat down. Yu Jin originally wanted to retreat, but under the old man's gaze, her body trembled. The next moment, Lin Chen felt a heat behind his back, and Yu Jin stuck to his back, rubbing gently.

Seeing that others were like this, Lin Chen did not push Yu Jin away, but he did not do the same as other martial artists, directly taking the woman into his arms and moving up and down.

"Cannot look at these people by appearance."

Although these few were playing very happily, and didn't even give a look, Lin Chen would not underestimate the people present. The moment he walked in, he felt several spirit sense peeks. ===== CHAPTER 490 =====
