Chapter 348 Apology
A glint of light flashed in Chen Ze's eyes as he responded to Hong Feng's words; "So, you and Young Master Lin Zhao have a very good relationship?"
This is just what he wanted!
Originally, Chen Ze was satisfied with his status as a disciple of the Phoenix Medicine Sect, but now that Hong Feng and Lin Zhao had a good relationship, he was even more overjoyed.
As for whether Hongfeng is willing or not...
In the cultivation world, there are plenty of ways to make women obedient. If Hongfeng is stubborn, he will train her into a puppet who relies on him. He doesn't believe that Lin Zhao won't take care of the Chen family for Hongfeng's sake!
Hongfeng met the other person's increasingly excited gaze and couldn't help but clench her teeth.
Seeing this, Lin Zhao sighed.
Her senior sister has enough experience in the cultivation world and acts cautiously, but probably because this matter involves her mother, she has lost some of her rationality.
However, this can be seen from her determination to avenge her Daoist partner. This senior sister is capable of disregarding everything for her closest and dearest.
The moment Chen Ze reached out his hand, Lin Zhao unleashed a Golden Crow Divine Fire: "Since you know that Senior Sister Hongfeng and I have a good relationship, Young Master Chen, you'd better have some sense of propriety."
Hearing that familiar voice, Hongfeng looked in Lin Zhao's direction with some disbelief: "Young Master?"
Lin Zhao smiled slightly at Hong Feng, and then released the overwhelming pressure of 1.8 million spiritual streams without hesitation, causing the Nascent Soul Grand Perfection cultivators around Chen Ze to be filled with fear and trepidation.
Chen Ze himself was also in the late Nascent Soul stage, but his spiritual energy foundation was only 600,000 streams. When he sensed Lin Zhao's spiritual energy foundation, his face turned pale, and he looked incredulously at the beautiful and ethereal girl in front of him who had removed her disguise.
"Lin Zhao?"
Lin Zhao walked up to Hong Feng and said with a smile, "I happen to have some things to take care of here, shall we come together?"
Hongfeng paused for a moment, then her eyes welled up with tears: "Thank you."
If it weren't for Lin Zhao, she wouldn't have been able to escape Chen Ze today.
Lin Zhao gave a wry smile: "I also bear some responsibility for my senior sister being targeted."
Hongfeng shook her head.
Chen Ze's targeting and coveting of her was actually more due to his desire for the Hong family, and had little to do with Lin Zhao.
In other words, as long as she returned to Yehuang City, regardless of whether Lin Zhao and the Phoenix Medicine Sect were involved, Chen Ze would still target her. With Lin Zhao and the Phoenix Medicine Sect involved, Chen Ze would at least put on a show of respect for their sake. But without Lin Zhao and the Phoenix Medicine Sect, she knew all too well what would happen to her if she fell into Chen Ze's hands.
However, her mother was seriously injured, and the rest of the family was being held back by the Chen family. When the daughter received this news, she returned to the Central Continent. How could she hide in the sect and only care about her own safety?
After following Lin Zhao into the auction house, Hong Feng's voice was a little hoarse: "I thought that he would be mindful of the Phoenix Medicine Sect, and even if he wanted to make a move, it would take some time. At that time, I would find a chance to run away."
As Lin Zhao led her into the auction house, he asked, "What's the situation between your two families?"
"The Hong family and the Chen family were once renowned spirit talisman master families in Yehuang City. However, after the Chen family developed a more powerful teleportation spirit talisman and monopolized the teleportation array industry in Yehuang City, the huge profits were only obtained by the Chen family. As a result, our family's various industries were divided up. If it weren't for the secret help from the An family and the Lin family over the years, the Hong family would probably no longer exist in Yehuang City."
Lin Zhao frowned: "So your family is no less powerful than the Chen family in terms of combat strength?"
At this point, Hong Feng looked somewhat embarrassed: "That was true in the past, but after our financial strength declined, several of the Hong family's retainers were poached by the Chen family. Now, the Hong family only has my grandfather, who is at the Integration stage, and a few elders at the Nascent Soul stage."
This level of strength is really pathetic among the top-tier families in the Central Continent; even some second-tier families are probably stronger than this.
To secure a top-tier position in the Central Continent, a Tribulation Transcending level expert is indispensable. To solidify one's position as a transcendent power, at least a Tribulation Transcending Great Perfection expert is required. As for behemoth-level forces like the Bright Hall, they have at least three True Immortal experts in their ranks. Unlike the Heavenly Phoenix Continent, the Ancestral Phoenix Continent does have True Immortals, but even if you add up all the reclusive old monsters, the number of True Immortals doesn't exceed twenty.
Upon hearing this, Lin Zhao asked, "So the Chen family has a Tribulation Transcending expert?"
Hongfeng sighed, "Mid-stage Tribulation Transcending, one level lower than the Sect Leader."
A mid-stage Tribulation Transcending cultivator, no wonder Chen Ze is so arrogant.
Lin Zhao asked thoughtfully, "If your Hong family could also develop a teleportation talisman more powerful than the Chen family's, wouldn't that present a chance to turn the tide?"
Upon hearing this, Hongfeng chuckled and said, "How could that be? The most difficult talismans to study are teleportation talismans. To create a talisman that can shake the foundations of our two families, it must be at least level seven. To develop a teleportation talisman of level seven or above, it would probably take a family's talisman masters thousands of years of research and improvement."
Lin Zhao thought to herself, "What a coincidence! There's a powerful figure in my mind who possesses far more powerful teleportation talismans than the Chen family."
However, these talismans are difficult to draw. The materials are not only expensive but also hard to find. They also need to be combined with an array, and it takes at least a month to complete them, even with the help of others.
Therefore, even though Lin Zhaoming knew how to draw teleportation talismans and teleportation arrays, he always chose to use the existing teleportation arrays.
However, if a family profits from this, then that's a different story.
"What if there is? If your Hong family makes it, can you guarantee it won't be stolen and the situation won't be reversed?"
Hongfeng wasn't stupid; she quickly understood Lin Zhao's meaning. She looked at Lin Zhao in shock, remained silent for a long time, and then said, "I can guarantee it."
Lin Zhao had a general idea of what was going on, but he didn't say anything too definitive. He led Hong Feng toward the treasure appraisal area.
"What are you doing, young master?" Seeing that Lin Zhao did not walk towards the guests' seats, Hongfeng couldn't help but whisper a reminder.
Lin Zhao replied without turning his head, "I plan to sell some things and vent my anger."
Hongfeng was stunned for a moment, and before she could understand what was going on, she heard Lin Zhao place a bottle of pills on the appraisal pavilion's table: "I wonder if you could please send out the person in charge of your auction house for a perfect seventh-grade pill?"
The old man in charge of appraising the item was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "If the item is genuine, I will naturally introduce you to the young lady."
Lin Zhao raised her hand, gesturing for him to do as he pleased.
The old man opened the jade bottle, his gaze falling on the pills inside. His eyes immediately filled with respect as he looked at Lin Zhao: "Please, distinguished guests, follow me."
Grade 7 pills are nothing special to their auction house, but perfect quality ones are quite valuable.
Lin Zhao smiled and said, "I can go with you, but there is a certain Huang Xiao Hall Master here who just offended my senior sister. Please call him over to apologize to my senior sister."
The old man glanced at the red maple leaves, a hint of doubt in his eyes. A staff member looked at the Heavenly Mirror in his hand, sighed helplessly, and whispered something to the old man.
The old man's face immediately darkened: "Tell that bastard Huang Xiao to get over here right now!"
They actually protected Chen Ze for making a move at the auction house entrance! If word gets out, what will become of Yehuang Auction House's reputation?!
