《Rise of the Great Emperor 》Chapter 152: Fan Ling

Lin Xiao nodded. It was not surprising that there were more valuable customers. If he was the only one who came here, he would be treated better because of the treasure he handed. But since there were more people who were more powerful and all, he was reduced to the background.
"I understand. Thank you for your hospitality, Mister Zhongsun."
"You're welcome."
They exchanged a few more pleasantries until Lin Xiao felt his mouth hurt. It was not his forte to speak a lot like this, but he had to keep up on appearance. Luckily, Zhongsun Shan didn't look like he wanted to make things difficult for Lin Xiao, so he also ended their sessions quickly.
There were also many other people who wanted to meet them, so Lin Xiao didn't take the precious time of other people.
As they walked out of the room, they heard two girls screaming at the side.
"Damn you, Fan Ling! Don't think that it'll be over with you taking the Night Yin Flower!" A young woman around the age of 17 to 18 years old said in indignation. She had fair complexion and beautiful figure. Even though she was still in her teenage age, her charm wouldn't lose even to those of adults.
In front of her stood a woman who was fairly shorter than her. She was dressed in fiery red dress and looked absolutely enchanting. However, the sharp eyebrows on her face signified that she was not a woman that was easy to deal with. Her dainty figure seemed to be bursting with power.
"Gee, Su Miao. Do you really think that everyone is as stupid as you? I won this fair and square. If you truly want it, why don't you just fork out more money?" Fan Ling asked with satisfied grin. She was certainly happy to be able to get the flower.

"Damn you, Fan Ling! Do you think everyone is as blind to money as you?"
"Blind, you're the one who's blind!"
"Shut up!"
The woman called Su Miao was already on the verge of exploding. If not for the people near her holding her back, she would have already strike Fan Ling as hard as possible. Her fingers were clenched into a fist as she looked at Fan Ling with hatred in her eyes.
This was not the first time they quarreled with each other. In fact, they had fought a lot because the two women were equally beautiful and attracted so many attentions. One was known for her beautiful figure while the other was known for her beautiful yet fierce face.
"Missus, please don't create trouble in this hall. This place belongs to Yue Yi Auction House," a man said with a smile.
The two women looked at each other with indignation before they unwillingly stepped back. Even though the two of them were already Foundation Establishment Cultivators, they knew that the one behind this auction house had power of Golden Core Stage.
Unless they were an idiot, they would not create any trouble in this auction house.
"Hmph! Let's settle this outside."
"Heh, do you think I'm afraid of you?"
The two women were going outside with several people following behind them. From their action, Lin Xiao could determine that they were all bodyguards of these women. It was quite surprising that the two of them have so many people supporting them.
"Both Fan and Su Family are powerful figure in the capital city," Sui Wenyan explained. She had stayed in the city long enough to know the power structure.
Lin Xiao arched his eyebrows. "Isn't this Feng Yi City?"
"There's teleportation circle that head straight to the capital city. It's easy for people to visit other places."

"The price is expensive, though."
"How much?"
"You need one beast rank 3 core."
Lin Xiao felt his mind blanked when he heard that. Uhm, he didn't know the conversion rate.
"How much is that?"
Wenren Yu smiled bitterly. "It's the same price as Low Grade Spirit Stones."
This time, Lin Xiao was speechless. It seemed that the price was even more expensive than what he knew. However, Wenren Yu and Sui Wenyan hadn't done explaining.
"And that's per person."
Lin Xiao: "…"
His heart ached at the money he needed to spend if he wanted to visit Long Yin Forest in the future. Thankfully, he had enough gold coins as long as Wenren Yu and Lin Yun didn't spend it all to buy herbs.
He highly doubted that these two would spend that much either.
Bang!
The sound of fighting soon enveloped the area. Everyone rushed out and maintained the distance between them and the people who were fighting in the middle. They didn't want to create trouble with these people in case that they wouldn't be able to control their power well.
If they got hit just because of watching, how laughable would it be.
Swish!
"Don't you dare to run!"
The power of the fist instantly destroyed the wall that was located not far from them. The owner felt like crying but a bodyguard had stepped forward to pay for the compensation. They knew that their misses were very violent when they were rampaging, so they were already ready to pay for the damages.
Lin Xiao watched from the side and arched his eyebrows. "How nice is it for these owner to have their properties paid by them."
"At least they didn't just run away."
"True."
At the side, Lin Yun was watching the fight without saying anything. His eyes looked at the enchanting fiery red figure in front of him and for some unknown reason, he felt that the young woman in front of him was the most beautiful person he had ever seen.
Even the other woman who had beautiful figure didn't seem to be that beautiful compared to the young woman.
Lin Xiao and Wenren Yu were still watching the fight with interest. Only Sui Wenyan noticed the strange gaze within Lin Yun's eyes and her lips curled up.
