The family that Lin Xuan mentioned would be willing to make up for Ji Mingzhu's extra money was naturally the Ling Household.
Ling Qiu offended him at the auction.
His own strength was evident to everyone who participated in the auction.
He believed that as long as the Ling Household's patriarch wasn't completely stupid, he would know what to do.
A Lineage at the Thearch Realm could easily come up with a billion or even two billion Spirit Stone, let alone a hundred or two hundred million.
The auction is still ongoing.
Lin Xuan didn't particularly want anything.
Of course, they didn't stop there.
He only acquired two items from the subsequent auction.
One item is a pill for spirit beasts. While it should be quite useful for ordinary spirit beasts, for Xuan Bing, it's probably only as effective as a candy.
Fortunately, little by little, it should add up.
The next item was a women's robe whose size could be freely adjusted.
It was naturally given to Xuan Bing as well.
The Xiaolu is less than six months old since it was born.
But she was, after all, a little girl, and not a baby.
It can't be that everyone else has something, but Lin Xuan's Xiaolu doesn't.
Qu Youmeng followed suit and bought several cultivation items that were suitable for her.
And Ling Qiu...
He's long gone!
What auction?
His reason for attending the auction was to intercept the healing pills that Ji Mingzhu wanted to bid on.
However, not only has this matter completely failed, but he has also offended a powerful figure whom he absolutely cannot afford to offend!
Ling Qiu was trembling all over, her face filled with deep fear.
He had almost never seen such a terrifyingly powerful expert; the mere pressure from him almost made him think he was dead.
Therefore, he disregarded the fact that the auction was not yet over, abandoned Fang Ya, and hurriedly returned to the Ling Household.
Offending such a being could, without a moment's carelessness, lead to the annihilation of one's entire clan!
He must return to his clan immediately to report this matter!
This matter is completely beyond his ability to handle!
The Ling Household's territory.
" Ling Qiu should have already won the Thearch Infant Pill at the auction, right?"
The Ling Household patriarch sipped his tea leisurely, his aged face bearing a hint of ruthlessness. Thinking of that old man from the Ji Household, he curled his lips in disdain.
What Ji Household patriarch...
Although the Ji Household was previously stronger than his Ling Household, after today's auction, he would ensure that there would be no place for anyone with the surname Ji in Starfall City!
He intends to completely annex the Ji Household!
As he imagined the future of the Ling Household in Starfall City, a slight smile appeared on the lips of the Ling Household patriarch.
And it was at this time...
"Ancestor, Ancestor... Something terrible has happened! Something terrible has happened!!"
Ling Qiu returned in a panic, his face ashen, practically rolling as he arrived at the side of the Ling Household patriarch.
His face immediately darkened, and he snapped, "What kind of panicked behavior is this! I, your ancestor, am perfectly fine!"
But upon closer inspection, seeing that the newcomer was Ling Qiu, and noticing Ling Qiu's extremely grim expression, a bad premonition arose in the heart of the Ling Household patriarch.
His expression immediately changed drastically, and he angrily shouted, "You! You didn't succeed in bidding for the Thearch Infant Pill, did you?"
That's a matter of great importance, concerning whether the Ling Household can annex the Ji Household!
But... this shouldn't be happening!
Based on his guess, the Ji Household, those penniless bunch, didn't have any guilds under their control. At most, they could only raise 2 billion Spirit Stone, and at most, no more than 2.2 billion.
He brought Ling Qiu a whopping Thirty!
"I..."
Ling Qiu trembled uncontrollably, tears of fear welling in his eyes. He stammered, "Ancestor... this is even more serious than failing to acquire the Thearch Infant Pill!"
"What happened?! Tell me now!"
Seeing the old ancestor's face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot, Ling Qiu dared not hide anything and quickly told him what had happened, as if pouring out beans.
He said that Lin Xuan's oppressive aura directly alarmed the auction's guardians, but in the end, the guardians disappeared without a sound, leaving not a single word behind. The Ling Household patriarch stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
The Ling Household patriarch's hand trembled, causing the teacup on the table to overturn and spill brown tea onto his robes. He paid no heed, gripping Ling Qiu tightly and demanding, "What you're saying, is it true?"
Ling Qiu: "Absolutely true!"
"Idiot!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his entire body flew into the air.
The terrifying force sent him flying into the air before slamming him down, creating a large hole in the ground.
"Qiu'er!"
Just then, the patriarch of the Ling Household, who was also Ling Qiu's father, walked in.
As soon as he entered, he saw his youngest son being sent flying by the old ancestor's palm strike, spitting out blood and lying on the ground, his life hanging in the balance. He immediately shouted.
"Ancestor! What are you doing?"
The patriarch of the Ling Household was now both angry and afraid.
He slowly withdrew his hand, his eyes wide with rage.
"What should I do? You might as well ask your good son!"
"His short-sightedness has almost dragged our entire Ling Household down a dead end!"
"Now, you hurry up and go to our clan's treasury to prepare a grand gift, then come with me to the Ji Household to apologize!"
The Ling Household patriarch was completely stunned.
What is all this nonsense?
Why should we go to the Ji Household to apologize?
Isn't the Ji Household on the verge of extinction?
However, seeing his ancestor in a fit of rage, he didn't dare ask any more questions. He could only swallow stiffly and ask, "A... a great gift, how great a gift is it?"
The Ling Household patriarch took a deep breath. "A gift even greater than the one given to the city lord of Starfall City!"
He knew it very well.
If we don't salvage the situation this time, the entire Ling Household might be wiped out!
at the same time.
The Ji Household.
Ji Mingzhu's father, who was also the patriarch of the Ji Household, was waiting anxiously.
Whether Mingzhu can successfully acquire the elixir is a matter of life and death for the Ji Household Lineage, as well as the injury of our ancestor...
'Mingzhu, you absolutely must succeed!'
He thought to himself silently, watching the sun slowly set in the west. Calculating the time, it was almost time for the auction to end, but his son Ji Mingzhu had not yet returned, and his heart tightened.
'Could something have happened...?'
The Ji Household patriarch frowned deeply, but he couldn't leave the Lineage compound at all.
The patriarch was seriously injured, and the elders of the family were all taking care of him and protecting his life. Now, he was the only one who could still move, and he could not leave the Lineage to avoid any accidents.
This is also why he entrusted the auction of the elixir to Ji Mingzhu.
However, it seemed as if even the Heavenly Dao were against him.
While the Ji Household patriarch waited anxiously, the Ji Household servants practically scrambled over, their faces filled with nervousness.
"Chieftain, Chieftain, something terrible has happened!"
" The Ling Household... the entire Ling Household has come!"
The Ji Household patriarch was instantly taken aback, his heart filled with horror.
The Ling Household actually arrived at this time.
Could it be that the auction for Mingzhu failed!?
The Ling Household isn't even willing to wait a second longer; they've come straight to war?
If that's the case, then things will be terrible!
