Chapter 126 - 126: Ice Phoenix Feather



Lin Fan narrowed his eyes when he heard this and he turned towards that VIP room.

Elder Hua also followed and once she saw whose room it was, she revealed a cold look.

​​

Lin Fan saw this and asked, "Who does that room belong to?"

Elder Hua spread her hands and said with a sigh, "Who else do you think that room could belong to? How many people have you offended since coming here?"

Lin Fan revealed a cold smile when he heard this.

He never thought that this old man would be so petty.

Without hesitation, Lin Fan pressed the button again and made another bid.

"Two thousand and five hundred crystals."

But of course, his voice was a bit more strained this time.

Elder Chen in his booth revealed a faint smile when he heard this since he knew that he had accomplished his goal. This act was nothing more than to put a little pressure on Lin Fan and to get a bit of revenge for his son, so of course he wouldn't go too far.

But that didn't mean that he would let Lin Fan off this easily. This was only the first bid, he knew that Lin Fan could still go a bit further.

Elder Chen pressed the button on his chair and made another bid.

"Two thousand five hundred and one crystals."

Lin Fan just revealed a smile when he heard this, but when he made his bid, his voice sounded a bit desperate, "Three thousand crystals…"

Elder Chen knew that he had pushed Lin Fan far enough, so he stopped bidding at this point.

Making him bid an extra thousand crystals, that could count as a bit of revenge for his son. It was too bad that he didn't know that Lin Fan had another surprise planned for him later.

Elder Hua saw the smile on Lin Fan's face and was confused, "Why are you so happy? Didn't he just force you to bid an extra thousand crystals for this unknown stone?"

Lin Fan nodded as he said, "Yes he did, but at least he didn't force me to pay even more than that. My limit was much higher, but it's a good thing that he's such an easy person to fool."

Elder Hua thought about it and she realized that Lin Fan was right. Just by acting like he was having trouble making this bid, he easily fooled Elder Chen to stop his harassment this quickly.

Elder Hua changed the way she looked at Lin Fan, she felt that he was quite the sly fellow. Even thinking about it now, she felt that she might have been cheated by Lin Fan somehow. But then thinking about everything that she had gained from cooperating with him, it might have been worth it to be tricked by him.

Lin Fan just had the same smile as he added, "Not to mention, we have another surprise for him later."

Elder Hua was confused at first, but then she realized something. She also revealed a smile as she said, "Oh, we do have quite the good surprise for him later."

At this time, Hong Mei on the stage was drawing out the bid by adding in a few more facts on the stone after calling the bid twice, but seeing that the other side wasn't willing to keep bidding, she could only say, "Three thousand crystals going thrice. Sold to VIP room 2! We hope that you enjoy this item!"

Then she went on to introduce the next item, but this item was much more normal compared to the first item.

The next few items that came out were all ordinary things. There were low grade pills, special elixirs, and different artifacts. There was even a Spatial Ring which might have enticed Lin Fan before, but he already had his own Spatial Ring after destroying the Feng Family.

The items kept coming one after another, but seeing that there was nothing special that came out, Lin Fan was quite bored just sitting there and watching.

But that then changed with the next item.

Hong Mei gave a signal to the people backstage and they created a special effect where snowflakes filled the air of the hall.

This special effect attracted everyone's attention, including Lin Fan.

Hong Mei slowly said, "There are beasts that are considered legends among legends, these are beasts of divinity. Their bloodline has been worshipped before in the long ago history of our world and now we would like to bring out an item with that bloodline."

With a snap, there was a drum roll that sounded as another cart was pushed out from the back, but it was different this time. The moment the cart came out, the temperature in the hall visibly dropped by several degrees. It was so cold that people could even see their own breath in the air.

When the sheet was lifted off, there was a sharp bird's cry that rang through the entire hall, shaking the souls of everyone who heard it. This was a primal sense of awe that came from the cry.

With the sheet off, there was a glass case that was revealed with a single blue feather inside that seemed like it was made of ice itself, but if one could touch it, they would find that it was soft just like a normal feather.

Hong Mei continued, "The next item we have for bid is a feather from an Ice Phoenix. This was found by one of the local seekers in one of the nearby planar cracks and they are offering to sell it tonight. We all know that the phoenix is a primordial being that was worshipped by our ancestors as a god and it wasn't without reason. The phoenix is one of the most powerful beasts in this entire world, who knows what secrets this feather contains."

Then after letting this sink in, Hong Mei said, "We will now begin the bid for this Ice Phoenix Feather. With how special this item is, I'm sure that everyone will have no objections of a starting price of ten thousand crystals."

Most people in the crowd were actually sitting up in their seats since their blood was boiling from the power of that cry alone. They were all excitedly holding their signs and waiting for the auction to begin.

Hong Mei deliberately drew it out to instill even more excitement in the crowd, but once she saw that the crowd almost couldn't take it anymore, she said, "Now, let us begin the auction!"

As soon as her voice fell, there were shouts that came from the crowd as people kept shouting more and more bids. The price quickly climbed and soon it had already reached twenty thousand crystals which was already twice the starting price.

During this time, Lin Fan had been staring intently at the Ice Phoenix Feather. He had to admit that even he was tempted by this since he could use the phoenix bloodline in this feather to help Xiao Huo break through. Then with the remaining ice laws in this feather, he could help Lin Yue's Ice Queen break through as well.

He wasn't in a rush since he could tell from the constant bids that it wasn't even close to the final price yet.

After he was done thinking this through, he said, "Xiao Hai, go down to the floor and make a bid for me."

Mu Xiao Hai was surprised by this, "Why do you want me to go down and make a bid?"

Lin Fan said in a casual voice, "To avoid a certain stingy old man making it hard for us, of course. Now go on, help your uncle with this task."

But before Mu Xiao Hai could say anything, Yang Yun came forward first, "Owner Lin, how about I go for you instead? Xiao Hai is the young master of the Mu Family still, he shouldn't do things like this."

Lin Fan turned to look at Yang Yun with a smile as he thought that this girl really couldn't be honest with her feelings, but he still said, "No, Xiao Hai can go." Then he turned to Mu Xiao Hai, "Look at that, you're even making this little girl worry about you. Why aren't you going yet?"

Mu Xiao Hai couldn't help sneaking a peek at Yang Yun before puffing out his chest, "Alright, I'm going."

Mu Xiao Hai had actually gotten used to following Lin Fan after being around him for a while. To put it simply, he had been trained to accept his fate as Lin Fan's lackey…

Yang Yun had a complicated look as she watched Mu Xiao Hai run out of the room, this was an expression that Lin Fan didn't miss.

He couldn't help smiling as he said, "Sometimes we need to really look deep into ourselves and not run from our feelings."

Yang Yun looked at Lin Fan with a confused gaze, "Owner Lin, what do you mean?"

But before Lin Fan could say anything, Elder Hua interjected, "Owner Lin, you shouldn't interject in these matters. They need to figure these things out themselves."

Lin Fan just smiled without saying a word, leaving Yang Yun feeling even more confused.
