Which Master Was This?

(Congratulations to the Newly Advanced Helmsman "Tan Lao Mie"! Congratulations to the newly appointed elder "Ran Jia"!)

"Let's discuss a deal."

The man's eyes remained unchanged, and his voice was equally unwavering.

"Explain."

"Two million, give me your auction item."

Mu Fan narrowed his eyes. Buyer No. 26!

It seemed they were already waiting for him at the exit, and their offer was half of what he had bid at the auction.

Upon hearing the masked man's words, Bai Guyue, who was hiding behind Mu Fan, tightened her grip on the Constant Temperature Storage Container beside her. This was her hope for advancement, and she absolutely could not hand it over.

"2 million... I'm not interested."

After a pause, Mu Fan uttered three words.

"Two million, what you gained was my friendship."

After speaking, the masked man turned his head and glanced at the surveillance camera above his left head.

A very faint pattern was visible on the side of the mask.

"Unnecessary."

Mu Fan frowned, his tone even more decisive than the person opposite him.

Upon hearing this, Bai Guyue's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down.

No one can take away these medicinal herbs that belong to me.

After seeing the dark gold masked man stare at him intently for a few seconds, Mu Fan suddenly spoke up, "Then it's truly a pity."

The coldness and iciness in his tone were obvious to anyone.

Mu Fan looked calmly at the person opposite him. "There's nothing to regret. Please make way."

The masked man glanced at Mu Fan again, said nothing, and turned away.

"Tsk, let me see who's here? I guess I arrived just in time. Hmm? Miss?"

Two rows of men in black walked in against the flow of traffic at the exit. The security personnel from Star Curtain Auction House looked at the tall, imposing men and their synchronized movements, then stepped forward, only to be casually pushed aside.

A young man with a slightly pale face walked over, laughing loudly.

Beside him was a muscular man in combat gear. In addition to the more than twenty people standing on either side, there were four men in black wearing light protective masks behind him.

What kind of formation is this?

People exiting the suspended elevators on both sides saw this scene and hurriedly walked away.

The Star Curtain Auction House staff also promptly notified senior management.

Those who come are either rich or powerful; in this situation, it is necessary for senior executives of the bank to take action.

Upon hearing this voice, Bai Guyue, who was behind Mu Fan, trembled. She knew who this person was.

This is the same young man she used to defend against the Green Bright Mist at the auction house.

However, Green Bright Mist was eventually stopped by the other party's bodyguards, and the thing I had been worried about still happened.

Unexpectedly, there was such a large entourage, and their intentions were clearly not good!

"Hmph, looks like you're in cahoots. Surround them. These are Federation military-grade Four-Filter Chemical Protective Suit. Let's see what trouble you can cause now."

Seeing the terror in the girl's eyes, Gao Lingze waved his hand, and four men in black wearing isolation masks stepped forward.

At this moment, a young man with a calm demeanor and five people following behind him stepped out from the side. The scene in the hall caught his attention.

"Gao Lingze? What's going on in the hall?"

The young man's voice drew Gao Lingze's attention.

"Young Master Tang, it's just a small matter. A woman here crippled my bodyguard's hand, and I'm here to demand an explanation."

"Oh? Do you need my help? My men are outside."

Without any further questions, Tang Nashiu naturally sided with Gao Lingze.

In the Federation, members of parliament are either spokespeople for powerful families or puppets of those families.

The idea of a member of parliament who rose from humble beginnings to a high position only exists in fairy tales.

Truth has always been a manifestation of power and money.

Therefore, even if these scions of wealthy families on Landu Star don't get along normally, they will still clearly take sides when something happens.

For nobles, reason should outweigh emotion.

"Thank you for your kindness, Young Master Tang, but just watch the show. I'll get my own justice this time."

Upon hearing this, Mu Fan tilted his head slightly and asked, "What's going on?"

Fear flashed in Bai Guyue's eyes, but she still mustered up the courage to tell Mu Fan, "He insisted on taking a picture of me, and I defended myself. As a result, his bodyguard was hit, but he will definitely not be crippled, I can guarantee it."

After speaking, the girl's eyes gradually hardened. "This whole thing started because of me, so you should leave."

Upon hearing this, Mu Fan gestured for her to stay still, "Stand still."

He wouldn't stand idly by today, no matter what. Hei had reminded him several times already; this was an extremely rare herbalist, let alone one who had the potential to advance to a higher level.

One-third of his hopes for his personal mech rested on this girl.

He had no interest in who was right or wrong.

If Mu Fan believes something is right, then it must be right.

"Hey, how long have you two been out? Why are you still blocking the door? Hahaha, sorry, I'm late. I bought a lot and need to confirm. But I didn't get to see that hot female auctioneer. What a pity."

A loud laugh came from behind them. Due to Mu Fan's figure blocking the light and the angle of the light, Yin Shuai had just stepped out of the floating staircase and smoothed his White Hair, saw Mu Fan and Bai Guyue in front of him, and walked over laughing.

but...

Something seems off about the atmosphere.

One step, two steps, three steps...

Then the two rows of ordinary men in black and the four advanced men in black wearing isolation masks appeared before them.

My throat is a little dry.

Seeing that many eyes in the hall were on him, White Hair waved awkwardly.

"Hey~ you guys continue."

"Hmm? It's you, kid. What a coincidence! Looks like you're all in cahoots! Well, today's events are truly a strange twist of fate."

Gao Lingze noticed the flamboyant White Hair at a glance, and his anger flared up.

This is the guy who said to thousands of people, "If you don't have money, don't bother comparing yourself!"

He'll probably never forget those words for the rest of his life!

As a representative of the younger generation of the Gaoling Family, if the rumor that Gao Lingze poor got out, he would lose all face in this circle.

Great, you deserve it, I should teach you a lesson!

We've got them all!

"Ha~ We really are in cahoots, how did you figure that out?" The White Hair's eyes suddenly widened, clearly recognizing Gao Lingze, and he answered in a serious tone.

Several men in black in the second row wanted to laugh, but they managed to restrain themselves.

"You're being stubborn. Looks like you've remembered who I am."

"Of course I can't remember! I've never been good at remembering things when I'm broke!"

"Hmph, the feud is now set in stone. It won't matter who you bring up later. This is a business of the Gaoling Family; those who are not involved should leave." With this order, the atmosphere in the exit hall instantly turned sour.

Apart from a few young people from the same aristocratic circle in Zhongjing City who did not leave, most people were diverted out through the side door by the Star Curtain security personnel who were hastily assembled.

Bei Shan Xin Yue was originally on her way to the top floor and is now rushing here. How dare they Star Curtain Auction House? She wants to see who it is!

As Gao Lingze spoke, a row of men in black began to press forward.

Mu Fan, Bai Guyue, Yin Shuai, and... the man in the dark gold mask.

The man in the dark gold mask at the front hadn't uttered a sound, but the coldness in his eyes was almost tangible.

Looking at the men in black who surrounded him with hostile faces, he finally lifted his dark gold mask.

His tone was icy, with a hint of bloodlust in it.

"Get... out."

The White Hair who had lost all sense of propriety and huddled behind Bai Guyue looked on in astonishment. What was going on?

Who is this guy up there? He dares to stand up for his brother in this situation.

Who is this expert?
