Chapter 719: Chapter 719 Grabbing Both Treasures at Once with Two Firm Hands

"I am a great phoenix destined to soar through the Nine Heavens, after all."

The young master’s voice was filled with confidence.

He clearly believed that his extraordinary luck was simply a natural part of his destiny.

He began carefully inspecting the six treasures he had successfully obtained, occasionally nodding in satisfaction.

The surrounding crowd gradually became quieter.

After all, the young master had finished gambling, and nobody else seemed willing to spend one million high-grade spirit stones on another stone.

Several minutes passed.

Nothing happened.

The old vendor remained seated calmly, waiting for the next customer.

Then, finally, Lin Feng moved.

He casually took Li Ruoxi’s hand and walked forward with her.

The two approached the pile of stone treasures together, looking at the strange rocks scattered before them.

Lin Feng walked slowly, completely relaxed.

Li Ruoxi followed beside him, her beautiful eyes occasionally examining the stones.

They had barely taken three steps when the surrounding cultivators began whispering.

Most of the comments were directed toward Lin Feng.

After all, to everyone present, Lin Feng looked like nothing more than an ordinary mortal.

"A mortal actually thinks he can inspect the goods of the gods?"

"What is he even doing here?"

"He probably doesn’t understand anything about stone treasures."

"Does he really think he can afford one?"

The comments gradually became harsher.

One cultivator finally spoke directly to Lin Feng.

"Young man, this isn’t your place to play. Go away and don’t shame yourself any further!"

The cultivator clearly expected Lin Feng to become embarrassed and retreat.

Instead, Lin Feng simply smiled.

He didn’t look angry in the slightest.

He calmly glanced at the man before turning his attention back toward the stone treasures.

"I’m sorry."

Lin Feng’s tone was surprisingly polite.

"I just happen to have enough money to buy these stone treasures."

The surrounding cultivators were momentarily stunned.

Lin Feng then smiled and continued.

"So please don’t disturb me while I’m picking out a gift for my wife."

Li Ruoxi’s expression softened slightly when she heard that.

A faint smile appeared on her beautiful face.

She had already become accustomed to Lin Feng’s shameless confidence, but hearing him openly say that he wanted to pick a gift for her still made her feel warm inside.

The cultivator who had mocked Lin Feng was left speechless.

He had expected the so-called mortal to become angry, embarrassed, or frightened.

Instead, Lin Feng had calmly dismissed his insult as though it were nothing more than an annoying interruption.

Even several people in the crowd began looking at Lin Feng with renewed curiosity.

Could this seemingly ordinary man really possess enough wealth to casually spend one million high-grade spirit stones?

And if he did...

Why did a powerful cultivator like Li Ruoxi willingly walk beside him?

The atmosphere around the stone stall quietly changed.

For the first time that night, everyone’s attention shifted away from the young master of the Nangong Clan and toward the seemingly ordinary man who had just stepped forward.

"Bahhh, you’re nothing but a shameless fool!"

"I really don’t know what this guy did to make such a beautiful fairy follow him."

"He must have used some underhanded tricks. Perhaps he even threatened or blackmailed this beautiful woman into staying by his side."

The surrounding cultivators continued to look down on Lin Feng.

In their eyes, there was simply no way a seemingly ordinary mortal man could be worthy of a woman as beautiful and powerful as Li Ruoxi.

Some people even began whispering among themselves, convinced that they had already figured out the truth.

"If you’re under any kind of duress, lovely maiden, just blink your eyes three times!"

"Don’t worry. We’ll save you from this shameless mortal!"

"Exactly! You don’t have to be afraid. Just give us a signal!"

Li Ruoxi looked at the people around her with an expression that was difficult to describe.

She was standing right beside Lin Feng, holding his hand willingly, yet these people were somehow convinced that she was being forced to stay with him.

If anything, she was the one who would become furious if someone tried to separate her from Lin Feng.

Lin Feng, however, simply stood there with a faint smile on his face.

He did not even bother arguing with them.

Fools are really everywhere.

There are probably more fools in this world than there are stars in the sky.

Lin Feng shook his head inwardly.

There was no point wasting his breath on people who had already decided what they wanted to believe.

Words were useless.

If someone wanted to misunderstand him, then let them misunderstand him.

If someone wanted to mock him, then let them mock him.

Lin Feng had long since stopped caring about such insignificant things.

However, his attitude would be completely different if any of them actually dared to make a move.

If they really want to cause trouble, then I don’t mind sending the whole bunch to the big fatty to play with.

The thought alone made Lin Feng almost laugh.

The crowd had no idea how fortunate they were that he was in a good mood tonight.

Otherwise, merely insulting him would not have been enough to keep their heads attached to their bodies.

Li Ruoxi glanced at Lin Feng and immediately understood that he was completely ignoring the crowd.

A faint smile appeared on her beautiful face.

She knew her man too well.

When Lin Feng genuinely became angry, he would not waste time arguing.

And when he was merely amused, he would simply let fools continue embarrassing themselves.

For now, these people were doing a perfectly good job of entertaining him.

While the surrounding cultivators continued talking trash and making a loud commotion, the old vendor remained surprisingly calm.

Unlike the others, he did not immediately chase Lin Feng away or join the crowd in mocking him.

Instead, the old vendor quietly studied the strange couple in front of him.

His eyes narrowed slightly as he examined Lin Feng from head to toe.
