After awakening, the female supporting character in the abused novel only wants to ascend to immorta

Chapter 195 Chief Auctioneer

Grandma Honghu laughed and said, "Little girl, it's not like you have absolutely no hatred for Ji Wantang."

Lin Zhao smiled and said, "I think I'll let go of this feeling once I get my things back."

It's too early to say anything now.

"You seem to enjoy the spirit fruit pastries from this auction house," Grandma Honghu said in surprise, looking at the nearly empty plate.

After all, in her memory, Lin Zhao used to take fasting pills and work hard before reaching the Golden Core stage in order to cultivate. He would eat simple food in order to have strength. After reaching the Golden Core stage, Lin Zhao rarely ate except when he had to attend banquets.

"Teacher, you've misunderstood me too much." Lin Zhao bit into the spiritually rich orange-type fruit, peeled off the thin skin, and took a bite. The sweet juice filled her mouth, and Lin Zhao's eyes squinted in comfort.

"I won't hold back when I can enjoy myself."

She sat on the sofa in the private room, and after eating and drinking her fill, she changed her position and lay down on her side.

Lin Zhao didn't sit up until he heard footsteps at the door.

After Lin Zhao opened the door, Nie Shenghai asked, "I wonder if those two bottles of pills were made by the fairy herself?"

Lin Zhao nodded: "I refined them myself. Is there anything wrong with those two bottles of pills?"

"No, no, no problem at all! Our auction house's alchemists unanimously agree that this is the best grade five pill they've ever seen!"

As he spoke, Nie Shenghai respectfully handed Lin Zhao a card.

"This card contains the estimated price of the pills you just purchased. After deducting the medicinal herbs you requested, the remaining spirit stones are approximately five million mid-grade spirit stones. If the final auction price is higher than this estimated price, we will take a 5% cut and transfer the remaining spirit stones to you. If the price is lower than our estimated price, consider it a small gift from our auction house to you."

Lin Zhao took the card, thinking to himself how wealthy and shrewd they were at business. With such employees, it was no wonder that Wuyou Auction House had grown bigger and bigger over the years.

Seeing that Lin Zhao was satisfied, Nie Shenghai wiped non-existent sweat from his forehead and smiled at Lin Zhao, "Is there anything else you need, Fairy Lin?"

Lin Zhao shook her head: "No, thank you Master Nie."

Nie Shenghai quickly waved his hand: "How could I possibly accept such a title as Master?"

If Lin Zhao were just a young, famous cultivator with profound cultivation, that would be one thing.

Such geniuses are rare, but he has seen quite a few over the years.

But someone so young, with such profound cultivation and such advanced alchemy skills...

The power behind this fairy is truly terrifying.

After all, it's impossible for an individual to reach the perfect level of alchemy in just a few years or decades.

If he could accept being called a master by Lin Zhao before, he really wouldn't have the nerve to call himself a master in front of Lin Zhao now.

Lin Zhao naturally saw through his thoughts and laughed, "Master Nie is too modest. Everyone has their own expertise, and my skill is just due to good luck."

Lin Zhao knew all too well that she wasn't particularly talented in alchemy, and that her current growth rate was entirely due to Grandma Honghu's guidance.

If it weren't for the fortunate encounter with Granny Honghu, Lin Zhao would still be that young girl searching for a path to power within the Lin family.

"You don't need to think like that. Once your Phoenix Luck stabilizes and won't be taken away, your path will already be very broad." Granny Honghu said in her sea of ​​consciousness, "If it weren't for me, someone else would have taken you as a disciple."

Moreover, sometimes, her disciple's luck in the Heavenly Phoenix Continent was so good that it made her a little jealous.

When she reaches the stage where she needs to break through, an opportunity will arise for her to achieve that breakthrough.

However, Granny Honghu vaguely understood that this was a favor bestowed upon Lin Zhao. Such a thing could not be envied or beholden to. Lin Zhao and Ji Wantang, who were born with the destiny of a phoenix, were themselves favored by the heavens.

However, Lin Zhao's favor was almost negligible before due to the influence of the evil thoughts from another world. If Lin Zhao herself hadn't been so capable, she wouldn't have received these opportunities. Ji Wantang, on the other hand, took her status as a favorite of the heavens to the extreme.

Lin Zhao looked at the rising auction stage through the huge floor-to-ceiling window, without refuting Granny Honghu's words.

But she understood that if anyone else were in her shoes, she might have reached the same level of cultivation, but would her Dao heart remain unchanged?

Not necessarily.

Compared to the previous Immortal Venerable of the Cloud Peak, Lin Zhao understood all too well the extent that Granny Honghu had gone to for her.

"Thank you for your hard work these days, teacher."

Grandma Honghu: "Did you take the wrong medicine?"

Lin Zhao: "..." That's why she didn't want to say more.

Grandma Honghu heard her inner complaints and said, "Stop talking nonsense to your master. Just help your master to be resurrected and regain a body so that you can become as strong as you were in life."

Lin Zhao patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, teacher, I will definitely do it."

Grandma Honghu chuckled: "I hope that after you know how to revive your master, you will still have such confidence."

For Lin Zhao, with his vast future ahead of him, ordinary soul resurrection might not be a major problem anymore, but for himself…

Thinking of the complete collapse that occurred in just a thousand years after the fall of the Creator God, Granny Honghu sighed.

Once Lin Zhao defeats Ji Wantang, she should tell her disciple her true identity.

The auction stage rose completely in the minds of the master and apprentice.

A scantily clad, beautiful woman swayed her hips as she slowly walked onto the stage.

After seeing the other person's somewhat exaggerated curves, Lin Zhao blinked and asked Nie Shenghai, who was sitting on the sofa next to him.

"Master Nie, who is this gentleman?"

"Oh, this is our chief auctioneer at Beicheng Auction House." Nie Shenghai wiped his nose somewhat awkwardly.

Lin Zhao immediately understood what was going on.

The relationship between these two is probably quite unusual.

"Her personality is a bit eccentric, but her abilities are beyond doubt. I believe she can sell the fairy's pills for a good price this time. By the way, she herself is also at the late Golden Core stage."

In such a small place, a late-stage Golden Core cultivator is also an auctioneer?

Lin Zhao looked at the beautiful woman with slight surprise; she looked no more than thirty years old.

It wasn't that she looked down on other cultivators, but without great power or opportunity, it would take an ordinary person several decades, or even several hundred years, to break through to the Golden Core stage.

Only at the Golden Core stage can cultivation help maintain youth. This beautiful woman, who broke through to the Golden Core stage in her twenties, shouldn't be working as an auctioneer in such a small place.

Seemingly noticing Lin Zhao's confusion, Nie Shenghai quickly explained, "This woman doesn't care about anything else, she only cares about her face. She's taken a lot of anti-aging pills over the years, she's probably almost three hundred years old."

Lin Zhao's eyes widened, and she couldn't help but confirm Nie Shenghai's age: "You are this year..."

Nie Shenghai was a little embarrassed, not expecting such a young girl to figure out his relationship with Han Xue so quickly: "I'm in my early forties."

Lin Zhao realized his lapse in composure, apologized, and explained with a smile, "Seeing the master's evaluation of this auctioneer, I roughly guessed what happened, and I didn't mean to offend the master."

Nie Shenghai waved his hand: "There's nothing offensive about it. Han Xue and I did have a relationship, but she became a cultivator, while I could only manage to become an ordinary Qi Refining cultivator no matter how hard I tried, so we broke up. That was all ten years ago."
