The Crazy Son-In-Law

Yao Cen nodded slightly, then turned his face away without paying him any more attention. He leaned his body closer to Xiao Shun.

The young man could only scratch his nose helplessly and retreat back to his seat, feeling quite disappointed.

“It’s rare to see you get rejected. It’s really not easy!” The young man sitting next to him with a silver chain around his neck and dressed in hip hop style ridiculed.

The one who spoke was Melmond cultivation world aristocratic family Huo’s son Huo Pengyu. And the one just now was Yi Rui, also from a Melmond cultivation aristocratic family Yi. Both of them were famous playboys among the Melmond family juniors.

As the economic center of the southeast region, Melmond had been a land of wealth since ancient times. These cultivation world prominent families were all local tycoons.

“If you think you can do better, go ahead.” Yi Rui glanced at him resentfully.

“Humph, watch me.” Huo Pengyu winked at him, then got up and sidled up to Zhu Que, greeting her, “Hi beauty!”

“Get lost.” Zhu Que said coldly.

Huo Pengyu’s smile froze on his face. He sucked his teeth and said, “No need to be so blunt, beauty?”

“No need.” Zhu Que replied briefly.

Huo Pengyu was momentarily stunned, “…”

He had never encountered such a direct rejection before, and was immediately filled with anger. His face darkened as he slammed the back of the chair fiercely and returned to his seat with a flushed face, extremely upset.

Yi Rui shrugged at him mockingly, “It seems you’re no better.”

“Just you wait, I’ll spend money to f**k this b***h even if I have to smash her with money!” Huo Pengyu said unwillingly.

“Then I’ll spend money to smash the b***h in front of me too.” Yi Rui glanced at Yao Cen’s exquisite figure and raised his eyebrows.

“How much money are you planning to spend to smash my two women onto the bed?” Xiao Shun turned his head and looked at the two of them.

Although they didn’t speak loudly, the distance between the two rows of seats was not far. With Xiao Shun’s extraordinary senses, he naturally heard everything clearly.

With this provocative question, his hostility value was instantly maxed out.

“My two women…”

How dare a country bumpkin occupy two such beauties, is there still justice in this world?!

“It’s the money you can’t earn in your lifetime.” Huo Pengyu sneered.

“I’ll be waiting to see.” Xiao Shun smiled faintly and turned his head back.

“F**king moron!” Yi Rui looked resentfully at the back of his head and cursed.

Song Linger, Duan Jia, Yang Tiancai and the others were itching to rush over and beat people up. Xiao Shun waved to indicate not to cause trouble over trivial matters and disrupt the plan.

“Now let’s welcome Mr. Zhou Tianheng on stage!”Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.

With the host’s announcement of Zhou Tianheng taking the stage, the auction officially kicked off.

Soon, an old man with silver hair appeared in everyone’s sight.

Zhou Tianheng was still dressed in a gray mandarin jacket. He leaned on a longevity stick, followed by two alchemists who looked slightly younger than him, slowly walking out from the special passage.

Thunderous applause immediately rang out in the venue.

He was a pillar of the Old School Society’s alchemy skills and a trump card of the Middleland Old School Society. Although the Middleland Old School Society was slightly inferior to other regions in overall strength, it was unmatched by other regions in pills refinement.

And the two alchemists following Zhou Tianheng were also famous in the Middleland Old School Society.

The three of them could be regarded as authorities in the field of pills refinement.

After the auction ends, the three will appraise the pills refined by alchemists outside the Old School Society.

Seats were set up next to the auction stage. After entering the venue, the three took their seats.

The host, who was surely also from the Old School Society, hurriedly walked over with a smiling face and asked, “Mr. Zhou, the auction is about to start, do you have anything to say to everyone?”

“No, let’s start.” Zhou Tianheng replied briefly.

The host’s expression stalled slightly, apparently not expecting such a response from him.

But he reacted professionally, immediately put on a smile again, and said to the attendees opposite him, “Alright, I hereby declare the auction officially started!”

As soon as his voice fell, an auctioneer in uniform walked onto the auction stage. A member of the Old School Society then brought up an exquisite wooden box.

The auctioneer opened the wooden box and displayed it under the camera.

The image was immediately transmitted to the four huge screens above the venue for the attendees to see clearly.

The auctioneer then said, “Energy pellets, starting bid 50, 000, increment 1, 000 each bid, 20 pellets per lot.”

At first listen, 50, 000 did not sound expensive, of course this was for a cultivator of average level. It was another story for someone like Yang Tiancai.

But this was just the starting price. 20 pellets per lot, so each increment of 10, 000 meant having to pay 200, 000 more.

Moreover, energy pellets were just very basic pellets. The ones Xiao Shun had punished Song Linger to refine were energy pellets. To think they were auctioning off at 50, 000 each here, just for the starting bid. How black-hearted!

Energy pellets had a big effect on Qi Condensation stage cultivators, but as cultivation level increased, the effect became less and less obvious.

However, Qi Condensation stage cultivators made up over 90% of cultivators in this country, so the market was still huge.

“52, 000!”

“55, 000!”

“60, 000!”

“…”

“86, 000!”

Auctioneer: “86, 000 going once, going twice, going thrice!”

Sold!

“Master, the 30 energy pellets you punished me to refine had nowhere to put, so I ate them all. If I knew they were so valuable, I should have sold them for money.” Song Linger muttered to Xiao Shun.

With Song Linger’s current cultivation level, those things had basically negligible effect on her. She probably really ate them because there was nowhere to put them.

If Yang Tiancai heard this, he would probably be wishing for death.

“Don’t mention it, I feel bad too.”

Xiao Shun also didn’t know such low-level energy pellets could sell for over 80, 000. He rarely interacted with cultivators, so he was completely unaware of pellet prices.

“Breath pellets, starting bid 100, 000, increment 1, 000 each bid, 10 pellets per lot.”

The auctioneer’s voice resonated in the venue again.

One bid after another rang out in quick succession, and the price soon soared to 150, 000.

In the monitoring room, dozens of monitor screens flickered, reflecting on a beautiful face.

Haitang stood with her arms crossed, calmly watching the monitor screens.

Like Yang Zinuo, she was puzzled why Xiao Shun dared to openly appear at an event held by the Old School Society. It was a provocation.

The worrying thing was, she didn’t know what he was up to. If he wanted revenge, wouldn’t it be safer to act in secret?

Could he really think he could handle the entire Old School Society alone?

If he really thought so, it would be too overconfident. She didn’t think he was that stupid.

Of course, if she thought Xiao Shun simply came to participate normally in the auction, that would make her the stupid one.
