Cultivation Pet Shop

Chapter 123 - 123: Entering The Auction Hall



Lin Fan felt quite weird having to put on a suit after going so long without wearing one. He used to wear the top brand suits every night back when he was on earth, but after being free of that lifestyle, it felt weird putting on a suit.

But when he saw Angela come out in her pure white one piece dress, all his complaints about having to dress up in this 'monkey suit' was completely blown away.

​​

Angela had a slim white one piece strapless dress that hugged her figure, perfectly outlining the shapes of her body, with curves in all the right places. Then on her bare shoulders, there was a white silk scarf that wrapped right around her, showing off just the right amount of skin. At the bottom of the dress, there were two pairs of slender legs that seemed like they were carved out of jade, glistening in the light.

When Lin Fan saw her, his jaw almost dropped to the ground.

Angela saw this and she couldn't help feeling a bit of pride, as well as a bit of happiness.

Surprisingly Angela hadn't been against wearing this when she was shown this dress.

As a spirit, she lived quite freely, wearing comfortable and simple clothing. This was her first time dressing up like this, she had even been shocked when she saw herself in the mirror. All the maids that had helped her into her dress couldn't help doubting their own preferences after seeing what she looked like.

Mu Xiao Hai was also here since Yang Yun had tasked him with guiding Lin Fan and Angela to the auction. When he saw Angela, he had the same reaction as Lin Fan as his jaw dropped.

Once Lin Fan came back to his senses and saw Mu Xiao Hai's appearance, he quickly raised his hand and slapped Mu Xiao Hai on the back of the head.

This slap brought Mu Xiao Hai back to his senses and he quickly said with an awkward smile, "Uncle you really are a lucky man."

Lin Fan didn't refute this like he would have done in the past, he just said with a faint smile, "I know."

When Angela heard these words, she couldn't help it as a bit of warmth filled her heart. She looked up at Lin Fan and revealed a smile that was like a flower blooming.

Lin Fan's face turned red and he quickly turned away. He gave a cough as he tried to calm himself down before saying to Mu Xiao Hai, "Xiao Hai, let's get going."

But hearing no response from Mu Xiao Hai, he turned his head back and saw that his jaw had dropped again. Lin Fan slapped Mu Xiao Hai on the back of the head again and Mu Xiao Hai revealed an awkward smile. He guided them to his personal beast carriage and they headed off towards the Treasure Pavilion.

There wasn't much traffic along the way, but once they were close to the Treasure Pavilion, the streets were suddenly filled with carriages.

All of these carriages had symbols of royal and noble families on them, not a single one looked like they were cheap. Every single carriage was heading towards one building.

However, when they saw the symbol of the Mu Family, all these carriages moved to the side and a path was created for Mu Xiao Hai's beast carriage.

They smoothly arrived at the front of the Treasure Pavilion, but once they did, the crowd waiting outside for the auction to start all turned over. All of them recognized the symbol of the Mu Manor, so once the beast carriage arrived, they all started whispering among themselves and pointing at the beast carriage.

But once the doors to the beast carriage opened, the one that attracted the most attention wasn't actually the famous young master of the Mu Family, Mu Xiao Hai. Rather it was Angela that attracted all the gazes of the crowd.

Regardless of whether they were male or female, every gaze fell firmly onto Angela as she walked out holding Lin Fan's hand. At first, every gaze was completely focused on Angela with many chins dropping to the ground, but then their gazes were cast onto Lin Fan walking beside her. 

All of the men were filled with jealousy, even most of the women were filled with jealousy.

When there were people who were about to come forward, the doors to the Treasure Pavilion came out and a fatty dressed in a golden robe covered from head to toe in jewelry came out.

He came up to Mu Xiao Hai in a very humble manner while rubbing his hands together as he said, "Young master Mu, it is an honour for you to come to our humble auction hall. Please, come this…"

But before he finished, he had turned his head to see Angela and his jaws dropped along with the crowd, instantly falling silent.

Lin Fan had seen everything, but he had ignored the crowd since this was the normal reaction. However, this damn fatty dared to ignore him to his face, how could he take that?

While the fatty was still stunned, he suddenly felt a chill come over him and he couldn't help shivering which shook the layers of fat all over his body. The fatty quickly turned to the source of the chill and when he saw Lin Fan coldly glaring at him, there was a trace of fear that appeared in the fatty's eyes. The fatty quickly revealed an awkward smile before turning to lead the way in.

While walking past the crowd, Lin Fan's eyes swept over them, sending chills over every single person who had been staring at Angela. All of them quickly turned their gazes away, but they didn't forget to secretly sneak a peek when Lin Fan's gaze had turned away from them and they were about to head inside.

Once they were inside the building, the fatty led them down a hallway until they came to a room that was on the side of the building.

This fatty was actually the manager of this Treasure Pavilion whose name was Bao Bao.

Once he felt the chill from Lin Fan, he knew that this man was not someone to look down on, especially since he was with such a beauty. Perhaps only a man like him was worthy of this beauty.

Bao Bao did his best to keep his eyes away from Angela as he brought them to this appraisal room. Then once they were all seated and the appraiser was brought in, he said, "Young master Mu, I've heard that you wish to submit an item for our auction tonight."

Mu Xiao Hai nodded before saying, "It's not me who wants to submit an item, rather it's my uncle over here."

Bao Bao was surprised to hear Mu Xiao Hai address this unknown man as uncle, but thinking about it, it did make sense. Experts had very long lifespans and everyone preferred looking young. This unknown man must be some supreme expert who was keeping himself looking young with his cultivation. 

Since he was someone that was an uncle to even Mu Xiao Hai, this man might even be a Legendary Realm Expert!

Bao Bao then quickly turned to Lin Fan and said in a humble voice, "My apologies, this lord. May I ask, what is your name?"

Lin Fan just said in simple and concise words, "Fan Lin." Then as soon as his voice fell, he raised his sleeve and waved it, letting out a pill that dropped onto the table.

Bao Bao was someone who could turn the Treasure Pavilion into the number one auction hall in all of Green Wood City, so naturally he wasn't new to this. He certainly knew how to keep the discretion of the customers.

Bao Bao gestured to the appraiser beside him who quickly moved towards the pill.

The appraiser looked at Lin Fan for permission and seeing that Lin Fan said nothing, the appraiser picked up the pill to look over it.

The pill was deep blue in colour and it had a very smooth surface. If one didn't know better, they might have even thought that this pill was a sapphire.

The appraiser then moved in closer to take a sniff of the pill and once he was done, he revealed a look of shock as he shouted, "Enlightenment Pill!"

But he wasn't done there, as he suddenly realized that there was something off with the smell earlier.

He went back in for another sniff and then his eyes opened even wider in shock, as he fell back onto his butt, dropping the pill on the table.

Before Bao Bao could reprimand him for what he did, the appraiser said in a voice filled with shock, "How can this be?!"

Bao Bao realized that something was off, so he asked, "What is it?"

The appraiser said in a stuttering voice, "This, this, this pill is of 100% purity!"

Enlightenment Pills were rare themselves, but he had never heard of one that was of 100% purity before!
