Chapter Fifteen: Sudden Wealth

  He got the virtual fire fruit, Lu Fan leaned back in his chair with a satisfied smile, his mouth almost splitting open.

  But no one could see through his mask and see his true expression, they could only see him sitting there calmly, as if everything had nothing to do with him.

  Shen Yun had the last item for auction brought up. When more than 20 bottles of Qu Tian appeared on a small cart, everyone's enthusiasm was suddenly ignited. Ninety percent of the families who came here today were here for this.

  "Needless to say, I'm sure everyone is well aware. The Tempering Body Powder will be auctioned off in groups of three bottles each, with varying effects. There are a total of eight groups, and the first group is now up for bidding at a starting price of 1,500 gold coins."

  Lu Fan was taken aback at first, and then almost burst out laughing.

  The quality of the scattered bodies sold in groups is also different. The approach of the auction house is indeed brilliant. Lu Fan's batch of scattered bodies is indeed uneven, with a few bottles being his earliest works, and they have some effect, but he was worried that they wouldn't sell.

  But the auction house did this, it's equivalent to forcing the good and bad together. 1,500 gold coins is just the starting price, Lu Fan shook his head and sighed lightly.

  "Two thousand gold coins."

  Mo Lin spoke up first. The price was immediately raised by 500.

  But this price can't scare off others. Zhang Jia's master, Zhang Yan, continued: "Two thousand five hundred gold coins."

  He added another 500, as if buying this thing, taking out only 100 gold coins at a time would be embarrassing.

  Mo Lin glanced at Zhang Yan and said without turning his head: "Three thousand gold coins."

  At this price, it doesn't even have the qualifications to make Zhang Yan frown. The Zhang family may not be as wealthy as the Lu and Mo families, but they are also a rich merchant family.

  "Three thousand five hundred gold coins."

  Zhang Yan seemed to have no intention of giving Mo Lin any face at all. Without saying another word, he raised the price again.

  Mo Lin hesitated for a moment. This price was actually a bit high for the Tempering Body Powder, and if he raised it again, he would be at a disadvantage.

  But he thinks so, it doesn't mean others think so too. Morin's slight pause was immediately picked up by Lu Hao.

  "Four thousand five hundred gold coins."

  Suddenly rising by a thousand, this momentum also made Zhang Yan slightly frown.

  The auction is about momentum, it's all about having this "I'm gonna get it" feeling.

  Zhang Yan thought for a moment, his daughter seemed to have a good relationship with Lu Ming of the Lu family, there was no need to offend her future in-laws at this time.

  So Zhang Yan smiled slightly at Luohuai and stopped bidding.

  Mo Lin wanted to haggle over the price, but after some deliberation, seeing Lu Hao's resolute expression, Mo Lin remained silent.

  "Is there anyone else who will bid? 4,500 gold coins, is there anyone who will raise the price?"

  After shouting several times, no one responded. In the end, Lu Hao surprisingly grabbed the first group with 4,500 gold coins.

  Lu Fan didn't know whether to cry or laugh. If his father found out later that the expensive thing he bought was Lu Fan's practice work, he would probably be so depressed that he wouldn't be able to eat for several days.

  But at this time, Father seemed very happy, with a smile all over his face.

  Right after that, the second group's auction started, and this time the price instantly exceeded 3,500 gold coins, finally closing at 4,500 gold coins, as if this number was the fixed price for a set of Tempering Pellets.

  One after another, several groups of tempered physique scattered out, and when it came to the third group from the end, the price actually rose again, reaching 4,800 gold coins.

  The last two groups were even sold at a high price of over 5,000 gold coins.

  Lu Fan couldn't help but purse his lips at this price, especially when the last two sets were bought by two unknown small families. Indeed, Jiang City was not short of rich people!

  Eight sets of Quan Ti San were sold out. The Mo family got three sets, the Lu family got two sets, the Zhang family got one set, and the other two small families each got one set.

  After some calculations, Lu Fan's income this time was at least 50,000 to 60,000 gold coins.

  The feeling of becoming rich overnight is great, from now on, he's probably never going to be short of money again.

  The auction came to a perfect end, and Lu Fan sent over the virtual fire fruit along with the gold coin card. It was actually Shen Yun who personally came to deliver it.

  "Sir, this is your gold coin card, and the auction house's handling fee has been deducted."

  Purple gold coin card, high-end and atmospheric, with the words "Ba Wu Ba Fang" on the back.

  Lu Fan took the card, dripped a drop of blood on it, and from then on, this card belonged to him alone. Holding it in his hand, Lu Fan could see the bloody numbers on the gold coin card, which only the owner could see, and would never go wrong. From now on, as long as he held the card, no matter where he went, he could withdraw money from any bank.

  Nodding in satisfaction, Lu Fan turned and left, Shen Yun seeing him off at the auction house's gate.

  Under the gaze of the crowd, Lu Fan suddenly became the target of public criticism, with countless eyes falling on him.

  But Lu Fan didn't care, anyway they couldn't recognize him. At this time, Mo Lin surprisingly walked over and saluted Lu Fan with a fist: "Sir, thank you for providing the Tempering Body Powder. I am Mo Lin from the Mo family in Xiangjiang City. May I have the honor of inviting sir to my home for a chat?"

  Mo Lin looked very respectful, but Lu Fan didn't even bother to glance at him. Did he really think he was an outsider? He had no idea what kind of person "Poison Hand" Mo Lin was. The Mo and Lu families were also old enemies, so he didn't have time to visit the Mo family as a guest.

  "Hoarse voice, Lu Fan said: 'No need, right?'"

  Mo Lin looked a bit embarrassed, but seeing that the other party didn't have any intention of giving him face, he could only say: "It seems that Mo has invited himself to no avail. However, sir, if you have time in the future, the doors of the Mo residence will always be open for you."

  Mo Lin bowed and bid farewell, while on the other side, Lu Hao also walked out.

  Lu Hao took a big step and came to Lu Fan's side, saying: "Sir, if I have offended you just now, please forgive me."

  As he spoke, Lu Hao bowed with his fist. Lu Fan hurriedly supported him and joked that it was bad luck for a father to bow to his son.

  "Mr. Lu needn't," Lu Fan said slowly in a hoarse voice.

  "Mr. Lu slightly frowned and said: "Sir, you know my surname is Lu?"

  Lu Fan's mouth twitched slightly, and he inadvertently exposed himself. His eyes flickered, and immediately, Lu Fan explained: "I have some acquaintance with your young master, so I naturally know."

  "Does Mr. know Lu Fan?"

  Lu Hao was even more surprised, he found it hard to imagine that Lu Fan would know a Qi Refiner.

  Lu Fan nodded, which was his way of responding. Lu Hao hastily said: "In that case, please come to the Lu residence as our guest, Mr.! If my son has disturbed you in any way, I can also have him apologize to you in person."

  Lu Fan said: "Mr. Lu is worrying too much. The young master... is quite good. I still have something to do, I'll come again next time."

  After finishing speaking, Lu Fan hurriedly left. He was afraid that if he said one more sentence, he would reveal himself.

  It's really uncomfortable to speak with a hoarse voice, but if Father finds out that I've been fooling him, I'll definitely be in for it when I get home.

  Flight is the best policy, flight is the best policy!

  Lu Hao saw Lu Fan off, muttering to himself the three words "very good" that Lu Fan had just said.

  Lu Hao burst out laughing immediately.

  "This little rabbit, unexpectedly knows a Qi Refiner and didn't even tell me. Very... not... wrong, could it be that my son Lu Fan also has the talent to become a Qi Refiner?"

  Lu Hao's eyes lit up and he took big strides back, his smile growing even brighter.

  Standing not far away, Mo Lin watched Lu Hao and the "Mysterious Iron-Faced Man" chatting happily, and couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in his eyes.

  This iron-faced man, not giving him face, actually chatted with Lu Hao so happily. Mo Lin really wanted to send someone to investigate who this iron-faced man was right now, but his rationality didn't let him do so. Forget it, just a passing cultivator after all.

  I don't believe it, can your Lu family really recruit a Qi Refiner?

  Mo Lin flung his sleeve and stormed off in a huff.

  。。。。。。

  Lu Fan carefully made his way back outside the store, confirming that no one was following him, before putting away the black robe and iron mask.

  With a smile, Lu Fan walked back into the store and happened to see Wu Chen drinking.

  "Are you back? How was your harvest?"

  Wu Chen smiled and spoke up, he took one look at Lu Fan's radiant appearance and knew that Lu Fan must have made a huge profit.

  Lu Fan smiled and said: "Master, from now on, just tell me what medicinal materials you want to buy, I'll be able to get them for you."

  Wu Chen shook his head and said: "You've earned so much money, look at how happy you are. You're still from a wealthy family, sigh."

  Lu Fan sat down opposite Wu Chen and said, "Master, I've got something good too."

  As he spoke, Lu Fan took out the Virtual Fire Fruit.

  Wu Chen saw the Virtual Fire Fruit and his smile grew even brighter.

  "This was actually found by you. Alright, alright, alright. With this, your cultivation progress can speed up a bit more, close the door."

  Lu Fan heard this and immediately closed the door, while Wu Chen picked up the Virtual Fire Fruit and said: "Lu Fan, today I'll let you witness a true Alchemist's technique for refining medicine."

  Lu Fan's eyes widened as he watched, only to see Wu Chen's hand suddenly rise with a stream of air, causing the entire virtual fire fruit to become distorted.

  Then, Wu Chen turned his hand over and five rays of light appeared in the air at the same time, gathering in Wu Chen's hand.

  With a low shout, the virtual fire in Wu Chen's hand suddenly changed shape in the airflow, and a few black powder fell from his hand. These were impurities of medicinal materials, and Lu Fan saw such a magical purification method for the first time.

  The next moment, the whole small shop began to tremble slightly. There was a sound of wind, a sound of water, a sound of thunder falling, and a sound of flames bursting. Finally, there was also a low voice from the earth.

  The five rays of light merged into the completed Void Fire Fruit, and a perfectly rounded Dan medicine quickly condensed.

  The entire small shop began to fill with the glow of Dan medicine. After a moment, the glow suddenly disappeared, and the refining was complete.

  Wu Chen's hand appeared a bright red pill, Wu Chen smiled and said: "Void Fire Pill, second-grade elixir."

  Lu Fan took over the dan medicine, and what was still swirling in his mind was the scene just now.

  "Master, your alchemy technique just now was really cool."

  Wu Chen said: "This is called the Tian Di Hua Dan method. When you become a Spiritual Energy Master, I will teach you again."

  Lu Fan nodded slightly and looked at the Dan medicine: "This Dan medicine, should I take it now?"

  Wu Chen smiled and said, "It's up to you then."

  Lu Fan thought for a moment, and finally put the medicine away first: "Let's eat it in a few days. I just ate a one-product pill, let's absorb the remaining medicinal power first."

  Wu Chen nodded in satisfaction, a huge temptation just now could still keep calm, this is his disciple.

  Two people looked at each other and smiled, everything was understood without a word being said.
