TFHS: Chapter 54

The moment he heard Gong Yuming shouting, Feng Ming turned around, entered the private room, and came to the front of the room.

There was a formation set up inside the private room, which could be set up so that the people inside could see outside but the people outside couldn’t see inside the room. This was exactly the case in the private room now.

Feng Ming naturally knew who Gong Yuming was yelling about. He wanted to see who would be their future enemy.

With this type of personality and knowing that Bai Qiaomo was married to him, this person would become hostile to him as well. Their positions were bound to be in opposition.

Bai Qiaomo held his forehead when he saw Feng Ming being so impatient. Even so, he got up and walked over, looking down with Feng Ming.

Feng Jinlin raised an eyebrow and looked as well.

The three of them stood in a row. Then Feng Ming saw the three people who attracted many people’s attention. With just one glance, he could quickly determine their identities.

Feng Ming pointed at the three people. “The guy who is dressed the most flamboyantly must be Wu. He is just so-so in appearance. The cold beauty in the middle must be Feng Linlang, or else she wouldn’t be chased by that flamboyant guy. The decent-looking guy next to her must be Feng Linlang’s younger brother. What was his name?”

He wasn’t an important person, so Feng Ming didn’t bother to remember him.

Hearing Feng Ming’s narration, Bai Qiaomo didn’t have killing intent when facing the enemy who abolished his dantian again. Instead, he was happy. “He is called Feng Hongrui. He is studying and cultivating at Sihong Academy with Feng Linlang and Wu Yingyan. Of course, Wu Yingyan went there to chase Feng Linlang.”

In other words, these three people specifically asked for leave from Sihong Academy. Feng Ming knew the reason without having to think about it.

The moment he saw this guy surnamed Wu, he felt that this person had the face of a sub-villain. How could he have a good ending if he went against the protagonist?

At this time, another person with the face of a villain jumped out. No, it was clearly the face of a little cannon fodder. Wasn’t he the son of that family who had a conflict with Bai Qiaomo and them in the teahouse before?

“Wan Bairong,” Bai Qiaomo reminded.

Feng Ming realized that he had unknowingly spoken aloud and quickly covered his mouth to laugh. Then he said contemptuously, “Could it be that this guy tipped off the Wu guy? What a lackey. But why is Feng Linlang willing to come back with him? Does she think she has done nothing wrong?”

Bai Qiaomo knew these things more clearly after experiencing it once. He said, “It is because of Feng Hongrui. Feng Hongrui strongly supports Wu Yingyan’s pursuit of his sister. Feng Linlang is someone who loves her brother, so she probably doesn’t fully understand her brother’s thoughts at this time.”

Feng Ming’s impression of Feng Hongrui immediately plummeted. He knew from the background of the Wu family that everything was built on that noble concubine and prince. Once those two fell, the Wu family would quickly decline.

“Tsk, his vision is really bad. He doesn’t treat his sister very well if he has found someone like this for his sister. He must be trying to trick his sister.”

Tricking his sister? Bai Qiaomo touched his chin while thinking that this was too accurate. Wasn’t Feng Hongrui a professional at pitting his sister?

However, Bai Qiaomo had no sympathy for Feng Linlang. After all, they were siblings.

Wan Bairong ran to Wu Yingyan to deliver news about Feng Ming and Bai Qiaomo.

Wan Bairong had someone keep an eye on the two people from early in the morning to find out which private room they entered.

His purpose was naturally to use Wu Yingyan to teach those two bastards a lesson and avenge his hatred.

Wan Xihai had said that they could wait until this group left Gaoyang County before taking action, but he couldn’t guarantee that the family would send an expert to go, and the strength he had gathered wasn’t enough.

So after thinking about it, he turned his attention to Wu Yingyan, who was protected by experts from his family.

As expected, Wu Yingyan came to Gaoyang County as he wished. Wan Bairong was extremely excited.

Thus, the three people in the private room saw Wan Bairong speaking to Wu Yingyan.

The latter raised his head and glanced towards their private room with a sinister look. Then he looked at Feng Linlang beside him with a smug smile.

How could a waste compare with his Wu family? Feng Linlang was optimistic about the waste in the past but now she wouldn’t even look at him.

That waste could just wait for Wu Yingyan to get the beauty.

“Psychopath.” Feng Ming had only this word to describe this look.

He turned around and sat down, pulling his father and Bai Qiaomo with him. “Don’t watch it. This type of villain is destined to not make it to the end.”

Feng Jinlin smiled and knocked Feng Ming on the head. “What nonsense are you saying again?”

Feng Ming came over and talked affectionately with his father, while Bai Qiaomo laughed secretly beside him.

He felt that Feng Ming’s summary was very correct. Wasn’t such a person a psychopath?

No matter whether it was in his previous life or the plot that the book transmigrator knew, Wu Yingyan didn’t make it to the end. Once the Wu family’s backers fell, Wu Yingyan was nothing more than a stray dog.

He locked that soul in the space of the Green Gathering Bead but that didn’t mean he did nothing during this time. When he had time, he interrogated that soul and heard a lot of things from that soul’s mouth.

It didn’t matter if the soul didn’t want to talk. Bai Qiaomo would search his soul. Soul searching wasn’t a pleasant experience, so the soul was very obedient in order to avoid enduring it again.

After careful comparison with his own experience, Bai Qiaomo was able to find inconsistencies and found that the soul only knew the surface things.

On a deeper level, he simply couldn’t reveal the plot at all.

This made Bai Qiaomo more convinced that the soul was just lucky enough to receive a projection of the laws of the world for a period of time. It wasn’t really a world of a novel as he thought.

There was a person outside who was watching the fun and not afraid of making trouble. He shouted at the people who came in, “Hey, isn’t this Wu Yingyan of the Wu family? Why did you come to our Gaoyang County instead of staying at Sihong Academy? Feng Hongrui, you are really a traitor. Does your father know that you are doing this? Does your grandfather, the head of the family, know? Especially… Sister Linlang, do you know?”

Feng Linlang stopped and looked upstairs indifferently.

She had always looked down on the rich second generation like Gong Yuming, who only knew how to live a life of idleness and had no idea of working hard to improve themselves. She had never liked associating with such children from noble families.

“Gong Yuming, what do you mean?”

Gong Yuming was naturally aware of Feng Linlang’s disdain for him. In fact, he didn’t like Feng Linlang either. She was so arrogant that she didn’t take them, the rich second generation kids, seriously.

But without the Feng family, how far could Feng Linlang go?

She was very different from Bai Qiaomo, a genius who climbed up from the bottom.

She was called a proud girl because the halo that the Feng family cast on her was too dazzling.

Gong Yuming smiled like a ruffian. “What do you mean? Ask your good brother what it means to put you and Wu Yingyan together. Anyone with eyes can see it.”

Feng Hongrui was extremely angry and jumped out to curse. “This person surnamed Gong, what are you doing here? Stop talking nonsense in front of my sister? Ten of you combined can’t compare to my sister. You are just jealous of my sister.”

“Hey, Feng Hongrui, are you feeling guilty? The harder you jump, the more guilty you feel. Forget it, why should I be so kind as to remind Feng Linlang? I had better go and watch the show. Let’s go back to the box.”

Gong Yuming opened his folding fan with a swish. Then he walked toward the Feng family’s private box while waving it.

Feng Linlang was also a ruthless woman. Before Bai Qiaomo was abandoned, she had been determined to marry Bai Qiaomo.

As a result, Bai Qiaomo was abolished, and this woman didn’t ask any further questions.

How could she now know the role that Wu Yingyan played in it? But she still walked with Wu Yingyan.

At this time, all the boxes were set to the same mode. In other words, one could see out from the inside, but outsiders couldn’t see inside. The people inside lay against the transparent windows to watch the show outside and gossip.

“Does Feng Hongrui really have a guilty conscience? Does Feng Hongrui really want to make his sister and Wu Yingyan a pair?”

“I think so. Otherwise, why would Feng Linlang run back to Gaoyang County at this time when she was staying in Sihong Academy? It is obvious that she was instigated by her brother to come back.”

There were also people who admired Feng Linlang. They found Wu Yingyan, who stood beside Feng Linlang and acted as her protector, extremely annoying.

Unfortunately, they might dislike Wu Yingyan but couldn’t confront him. After all, the noble concubine and prince were standing behind Wu Yingyan.

The master of Jinyuan Hall wiped the sweat from his forehead. It was already lively even before the auction officially started.

He hurriedly told the people below, “Hurry up and get the auctioneer on stage. Don’t delay it any further.”

He didn’t want these ancestors to really cause trouble in his auction house. Jinyuan Hall didn’t have the confidence of Liuyang Pavilion. He had to be afraid of the second generation ancestors and the family forces behind them.

Thus, the auctioneer hurried onto the stage. There was still a lot of buzz from the audience, so the auctioneer hurriedly transmitted his voice through the sound amplification formation.

“Everyone, the JInyuan Hall’s auction is about to begin. Please welcome the first auction item, the corpse of the fourth-grade desolate beast, the earth dragon rhino.”

The corpse of the fourth-grade desolate beast, the earth dragon rhino was carried onto the stage, attracting the attention of most of the guests. They no longer paid attention to Wu Yingyan and the Feng siblings.

There were still many cultivators who were interested in the corpse of this desolate beast.

It could be seen that the corpse was relatively intact. The essence and blood were still retained in the corpse. Using this essence and blood together with beast blood to refine beast blood pills was especially good for strengthening the body.

Was it said that after reaching the body tempering realm, there was no need to temper the physical body anymore? But the stronger the physical body, the more it supported the cultivator to go further.

The moment the auctioneer called out the reserve price, there were bidding shouts from time to time from the lobby and private rooms. The head of Jinyuan Hall finally sighed with relief.

Wu Yingyan was extremely unhappy at this time. He was the only one sitting in the supreme VIP box with his followers and guards. Feng Linlang took her brother back to the box of the Feng family.

His eyes were vicious. D*mn that Gong Yuming. If it wasn’t for his words, Feng Linlang might not have left.

This kid wasn’t worth fighting with him. Wu Yingyan ordered, “Find an opportunity to beat up that kid. Who made him ruin my good deeds?”

“Yes, Young Master.” It was just a beating, not killing the person. This meant that all his followers obeyed.

Feng Hongrui sat in the box of the Feng family with a reluctant look on his face. He didn’t even greet the sixth elder.

Who were the elder and Feng Jinghuai? Once his father inherited the position of head of the family, he would let his father drive all these people out of the main family and Gaoyang County, making them side branches from then on.

Feng Jinghuai actually knew Feng Hongrui’s attitude towards them, so he didn’t try to please Feng Hongrui. He stayed beside his grandfather and watched the auction quietly.

Sixth Elder Feng Songhai shook his head secretly. These siblings had been praised too much over the years. They were the only two in the Feng family who were legitimate children of the main family. In addition, they had good roots and bones, so they had been very arrogant since they were children.

Unfortunately, their father had no say in the Feng family now. If they wanted to show off their power, they had better wait until their father inherited the Feng family.

“The next item to be auctioned is a third-grade alchemy furnace, which is the work of Master Jin, a master of refining. The starting price is 5,000 yuan crystals. Each increase in price must not be less than 100 crystals. The bidding starts now.”

Someone immediately called out a price the moment the hammer fell.

The number of alchemists in Gaoyang County was much greater than that in Qingyun County. Not only did the four major families recruit and train alchemists, but other forces also had them. In addition, many disciples of the Kunyuan Sect had come.

Everyone took action at this time. The alchemy furnace refined by Master Jin was indeed of good quality. If they missed this opportunity, they didn’t know when they would see Master Jin’s work again.

“10,000 yuan crystals.”

At this time, a clear voice joined the bidding. The voice made the auction hall quiet for a moment.

Many people turned their heads to look at the private room where the sound came from. Many people knew that this was the private room where Feng Jinlin and his ger was. Bai Qiaomo was also inside.

The auctioneer said, “Room 58 bid 10,000 yuan crystals. The guest in Room 58 has bid. Is there anyone who wants to raise the price? This is the first call…”

“50,000 yuan crystals!” An abrupt voice interrupted the auctioneer and instantly raised the bid so high that even the auctioneer was stunned.

Gong Yuming clenched his fists. “They are fighting. Great. They are starting to argue now.”

Another Gong family member said, “Will Wu Yingyan start a dispute with Room 58 and prevent them from winning anything?”

Gong Yuming sneered. “That is what that guy surnamed Wu is planning. Let’s see how Feng Ming and the others can get rid of him.”

“Brother Ming, what would you do in their position?”

Gong Yuming rolled his eyes a few times. “It depends on how much wealth that guy surnamed Wu brought with him.

At this moment, someone outside called out again, “100,000 yuan crystals.”

Gong Yuming gasped. This was Feng Ming’s voice again. As expected, he was fighting with Wu Yingyan. There was a hint of the gnashing of teeth in his voice.

Feng Jinghuai also heard it and whispered something in his grandfather’s ear. Feng Songhai frowned while thinking that Wu Yingyan was too overbearing.

He wanted to help Feng Ming, or it would probably be impossible no matter what they wanted to bid on today.

However, he only thought so in his heart and didn’t say it aloud.

Outsiders thought Feng Ming was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but unexpectedly, he was in a good mood in the private room. He bit the spiritual fruit and followed the bidding of that guy surnamed Wu.

If the other party bid 50,000, then he would bid 100,000. The price of the third-grade furnace quickly rose to 500,000, far exceeding its original value.

All other alchemists withdrew and stopped fighting with these two lunatics.

“I didn’t expect that when one person goes crazy, the other would follow suit. Who is that guy? How can he compete with Wu Yingyan in terms of financial strength?”

“I heard that he is the direct descendant of the Feng family, the one who married Bai Qiaomo.”

Even the Kunyuan Sect disciples had heard of this matter, but they really didn’t want to get involved in it.

Bai Qiaomo was abolished, but the Kunyuan Sect didn’t investigate the culprit. Did they have any face as a disciple of the Kunyuan Sect?”

“600,000!”

The auctioneer’s voice was shaking, and it was unclear if he was excited or worried. “The guest in Room 5 has bid 600,000 yuan crystals. Is there anyone who wants to raise the price?”

Many people turned to look at Room 58. In their opinion, the ger would keep fighting.

Unexpectedly, the auctioneer called out three times but there was no sound from the private room. The auctioneer’s hand shook even more violently this time. After hesitating again and again, he still dropped the hammer.

“Congratulations to the distinguished guest in Room 5. The third-grade alchemy furnace has been won by the distinguished guest in Room 5.”

Feng Ming laughed. “Idiot.”

Fortunately, the sound couldn’t be heard outside or someone would’ve been so angry that he would’ve vomited blood.

Gong Yuming also laughed and even slapped the table. “Feng Ming is so interesting. This trick is brilliant. He made that guy surnamed Wu go around in circles. Please do it a few more times.”

The other members of the Gong family were surprised and asked, “Will the ger continue to do this? Can’t Wu Yingyan see through it?”

Gong Yuming said happily, “What if he can see through it? Is that guy surnamed Wu willing to admit defeat?” He slapped the table again and laughed. “This time, that guy surnamed Wu was embarrassed in our Gaoyang County.”
