Chapter 495 - 494: You Really Think We’re Pushovers

He shouted halfway through before quickly clamping a hand over his mouth. Then, he presented the card to Ye Feng with both hands and said respectfully,

"Sir, there's no need to verify funds! This card has five billion in it!"

Old Wei stared at Ye Feng, his eyes nearly popping out of his head. 'Does Ye Feng really have that much money?'

The second floor finally stopped bidding, but an incredibly cold voice drifted down. "I hope you have the money to buy it, and the life to use it!"

Old Wei gave a cold chuckle.

'The Qiao family is not to be trifled with, either!'

But then, someone clearly recognized the voice from the second floor and couldn't help but shriek, "It's her! It's actually her!"

After speaking, the person turned and looked at Old Wei's group with eyes full of pity.

Old Wei also sensed that something was wrong. In a lawless place like this, the only ones who could put up such a huge sum to compete with him had to be one of the major powers!

A flicker of fear crossed his eyes. He picked up his phone, called Qiao Dongliang, and quickly explained what had happened.

Qiao Dongliang agreed immediately. "Good. I'll send people over to support you right away!"

Old Wei hung up the phone and let out a long sigh of relief. He then turned to the staff member and said urgently, "Finalize the transaction quickly. We need to leave as soon as possible."

But the staff member shook his head, then looked at Ye Feng and said respectfully, "Sir, our manager would like to meet you. She wants to hand the item over to you in person."

Ye Feng frowned slightly. Just as he was about to speak, the staff member leaned in and whispered in his ear,

"Our manager said she's connected to your Master!"

Ye Feng's eyes lit up at once, and he said hurriedly,

"Quick, take me to see your manager!"

Old Wei, standing nearby, could only sigh and follow them.

The group followed the staff member to the manager's office on the second floor.

The staff member knocked, then pushed the door open and made a gesture to invite them in. Ye Feng walked into the room.

A woman was standing there.

Her hair was styled in an elegant updo, framing a flawless, oval face. She wore a fiery red qipao, which made her look as noble and magnificent as a peony in full bloom.

When the woman saw Ye Feng, she hurried over, bowed deeply, and said excitedly, "Lin Peipei greets the Young Master!"

Ye Feng quickly helped the woman, Lin Peipei, to her feet and asked in surprise,

"Miss, I don't believe we've met, have we? And you said you're connected to my Master. What's that all about?"

Lin Peipei looked at Ye Feng and replied respectfully, "This Supreme Dragon Card is proof enough of your identity. You are our Young Master."

Seeing Ye Feng's baffled expression, Lin Peipei continued to explain,

"Your Master, Boss Zheng Changlong, is the true owner of our Mercenary Guild Auction House!"

"My Master is your boss?" Ye Feng's eyes went wide. 'Good heavens, even out here I run into people he knows.'

Lin Peipei smiled and nodded. "Not just our Mercenary Guild Auction House. He is the secret owner of *all* the auction houses in the world!"

Ye Feng knew his First Master was rich, but he had no idea his pockets were this deep. However, he couldn't dwell on that now. He looked at Lin Peipei and asked urgently,

"Then do you know where my First Master is now?"

But Lin Peipei shook her head. "Young Master, the Old Master handed these businesses over to you long ago and told us to answer to you. How could we know something that you don't?"

"I see." A flash of disappointment crossed Ye Feng's eyes.

Just then, Lin Peipei looked at Ye Feng and asked, "Young Master, you came to this lawless place specifically to find me, didn't you?"

As she said this, her pretty face blushed slightly. Before Ye Feng could speak, Ye Lingtian, standing behind him, sensed an opportunity. He hurried over with a sly grin and said,

"Miss, you're absolutely right! Our Ye Feng came to this lawless place just to see you. You have no idea, back home, he talks about you all day long. Says he misses you to death! He can't eat, he can't sleep, all because of you..."

"Oh, give it a rest!" Before he could finish, Huo Yun cut him off. "You old coot, can you try to be a little more believable when you lie? Ye Feng doesn't even know Manager Lin's name, so how could he be talking about her all day?"

Ye Lingtian froze for a second, then chuckled sheepishly. "Heh heh, well, you know what I mean. The point is, Ye Feng was thinking about Manager Lin!"

"Grandpa, can't you be serious for once!" Ye Feng was exasperated. 'This old man is trying to build a harem for me!'

But Lin Peipei didn't look displeased at all. In fact, her pretty face turned bright red.

Feng Qingwu looked on in surprise. 'Why is Lin Peipei reacting like this?'

Beside her, Mu Qingyun looked at Feng Qingwu, sighed, and said in a low voice,

"Qingwu, have you forgotten? These managers that First Master arranged... they're also the wives he prepared for Ye Feng."

Feng Qingwu swayed, nearly collapsing to the floor.

'Is this fucking ever going to end?!'

'But this is Master's arrangement. This humble servant dares not resist!'

At that moment, Mu Qingyun went over and quickly explained the situation. Upon hearing it, the color drained from Lin Peipei's pretty face, and her expression turned cold.

"How dare they try to take something that belongs to the Young Master! Do they really think we're a pushover? Young Master, rest assured, our Mercenary Guild has some power of its own. We will face this matter of the Tribunal with you!"

Hearing this, Ye Feng immediately shook his head. "Manager Lin, you absolutely mustn't! The Tribunal is incredibly powerful. I can't bring disaster upon you!"

But the moment Ye Feng's words fell, Lin Peipei cried out.
