Chapter 28: Su Chen Becomes Prey in the Eyes of Others

Just now, Su Chen stood before Ye Fan like a hero to protect her, which moved her deeply, so she whispered in Su Chen's ear, promising that he could do whatever he wanted with her in the future.

She dared not look up, afraid of seeing Su Chen's playful smile, and could only lower her head and softly murmur, "Of course it counts."

"Hehe."

Su Chen smiled with satisfaction and said, "Then tonight, this Young Master wants to try the 'old man pushing the cart' position."

Upon hearing this, Chu Yanran's pretty face turned even redder, and she nodded with extreme shyness; in her heart, she felt both a little fear and a secret sense of anticipation, for she constantly kept in mind the arduous task her mother-in-law had taught her.

Watching the two of them showing off their affection as if no one else were around, Su Mei'er, who was to the side, did not have a trace of envy or jealousy in her eyes.

She was merely Su Chen's maid, and Su Chen was her master; the relationship between master and maid was very clear, so she held no hostility toward Chu Yanran.

However, the expressions of the master and disciple, Mu Yuqing, in the Ding-class private room were different.

Seeing the extremely lecherous expression on Su Chen's face on the light screen, Lan Xiaoyou puffed out her cheeks, curled her lips, and snorted coldly, "What a little lecher!"

She did not understand why her master had brought her all the way from Northern Gazing Province just to watch this lecher perform; wasn't this lowering their own status?

Moreover, this lecher actually dared to openly place his salty hands on the high peaks of the beautiful woman in his arms—it was simply too much!

She gritted her teeth in hatred.

"Master, isn't this lecher too presumptuous? To openly commit such filthy acts in a private room at an auction!"

Lan Xiaoyou looked at Su Chen on the light screen with indignation and a look of disdain, "How could a person like this be the Son of Luck who triggered the manifestation of the Eye of Heaven?"

Hearing this, Mu Yuqing shook her head, licked her luscious lips, and said, "The Son of Luck who triggers the Eye of Heaven must possess a body rare in ten thousand years. I used the Heavenly Demon Eye to probe this person earlier and discovered that I actually cannot see through this brat."

"If he isn't the Son of Luck we are looking for, then who is?"

"This..."

Lan Xiaoyou was rendered speechless upon hearing this.

A playful smile appeared on Mu Yuqing's face as she continued, "This little thief hides deep; he is clearly a Dao Palace Realm Peak expert, yet he disguises himself as a mortal who cannot cultivate. This level of cunning alone is not something an ordinary person can compare to."

"Since that's the case, Master, why don't we just capture him and take him back to the sect?" Lan Xiaoyou asked with a puzzled look.

This was the Son of Luck who triggered the Eye of Heaven; as long as they brought him back to the sect and engaged in Dual Cultivation with him every night, her master might be able to break through the Quasi-Emperor Peak Realm and step into the legendary Great Emperor Realm.

At that time, their Heavenly Demon Sect would become the only top-tier sect in the entire Tianxuan Continent.

The more she thought about it, the more excited she became.

"Capture him?"

Hearing this, Mu Yuqing shook her head: "You make it sound so easy. This is the Donghua Prefecture, where there are no fewer than a hundred experts at the Quasi-Emperor Realm alone. If we rashly seize him, not to mention whether we could successfully take him away, just facing the wrath of the entire Su Family would be enough to give my Heavenly Demon Sect a hard time."

After saying this, she looked toward the Wu-class private room where Su Chen was.

A strange glint flickered in those beautiful eyes, as if she were brewing some sinister plot, making one's hair stand on end.

"Master, then what should we do?"

Lan Xiaoyou asked urgently.

After all, their Heavenly Demon Sect was currently in a precarious situation; if they could not increase their strength as soon as possible, they would be annexed by other forces and reduced to being someone else's slaves.

That was why she had been impatient to capture Su Chen and bring him back to the sect to help Mu Yuqing break through to the legendary Great Emperor Realm.

To them, Su Chen was a heaven-sent opportunity.

Mu Yuqing pondered for a moment and said slowly, "No need to rush; let us first observe what this little thief is actually doing here at the Tianqiong Auction House, and then consider the next step."

Since he is the Son of Luck, he must be someone favored by the Heavenly Dao, and he surely possesses many opportunities; if she could obtain them, the benefits would be endless.

She could afford to wait.

Upon hearing this, Lan Xiaoyou had no choice but to nod obediently.

In the Wu-class private room, Su Chen was currently holding the delicate body in his arms, his eyes slightly narrowed.

Chu Yanran's skin was smooth and tender, feeling very textured to the touch, like the finest silk; the sensation was extremely comfortable, and it was even mixed with a unique, faint fragrance that made him unable to help but lose himself in it, unwilling to wake up for a long time.

After a long while, he reluctantly opened his eyes and looked at the three people, including Xiao Ruoyu, in the auction hall.

"Tsk tsk, Ye Fan is worthy of being the Son of Luck; he thought of a way to sneak in so quickly."

A playful arc curled at the corner of his mouth, and his gaze toward Xiao Ruoyu was filled with evil charm and greed.

However, what he did not know was that he had already been targeted by two women and had become prey in the eyes of others.

———————

The auction hall.

"Miss Xia, President Chen has given instructions, saying that the hall is crowded and noisy, which would disturb you, so he asked me to take you to the 'Hai'-class private room."

A maid came before Xia Qingxue and said respectfully.

"Thank you to President Chen."

Hearing this, Xia Qingxue smiled elegantly, nodded in thanks to the maid, and then, holding Xiao Ruoyu's arm, left the auction hall with the maid, heading toward the 'Hai'-class private room.

Xiao Ruoyu knew that this must have been arranged by Su Chen behind the scenes.

After all, with the Xia Family's current strength, they were simply not qualified to enter a private room.

Seeing this, Ye Fan had no choice but to bite the bullet and follow along.

Along the way, Ye Fan was met with many eye-rolls and looks of disdain from others.

The events that had occurred outside the auction house earlier had already reached everyone's ears, and they all knew that Ye Fan was a poor boy who only knew how to cause trouble everywhere.

Now that they saw him appearing inside the auction house, they figured it must be because Xiao Ruoyu had a soft heart and brought him in.

They looked down upon men who relied on women and lived off them.

Ye Fan turned a blind eye to everyone's mockery and turned a deaf ear to their discussions, still maintaining his usual "I do what I want" demeanor, which made everyone secretly sigh at the thickness of his skin, which was unprecedented in history.

"Miss Xia, please come in."

The maid led Xia Qingxue to the door of the 'Hai'-class private room, bowed politely to indicate, and then turned and left.

Seeing this, Xia Qingxue and Xiao Ruoyu looked at each other, then lifted their feet and pushed the door open to enter.

The furniture inside the room was extremely luxurious, and the decorations were even more antique and elegant.

A scroll hung on the wall; the woman in the painting had eyes brimming with tenderness and a gaze that rippled like water, her attire simple yet lacking nothing in magnificence.

On the tea table lay a precious sword, emitting wisps of cold Dao power.

"Hiss, this is the layout of the 'Hai' room; then those four private rooms in front, which only those at Quasi-Emperor Peak can enter, wouldn't they be..."

Xiao Ruoyu gasped, not daring to think any further.

Although she was the eldest young lady of the Xiao Family, this was still her first time entering a private room at Tianqiong Auction House.

Seeing Xiao Ruoyu's astonished expression, Ye Fan curled his lip and said with a face full of disdain, "Tch, it's just a private room, what is there to be so surprised about?"
