Divine Seal: I am the Demon God Emperor's beloved granddaughter

Chapter 41 The Mage Who Cannot Use Attack Magic
The herb currently being auctioned on the auction stage has a starting price of one thousand gold coins.

"it is good!"

Seeing that Bai Xi wanted it, Lin Xin immediately raised the bid.

He knew in his heart that as long as he could buy this medicine for Bai Xi, this matter would be over. After all, although Bai Xi didn't have much money, it was more than enough to buy this herb.

but--

"Brother Long, how could you steal my job! Ah! Ah! Ah! Such a great opportunity!"

After Long Haochen pressed the bidding button first, Lin Xin covered his head and shouted exaggeratedly. Anyone who didn't know better would think something serious had happened!

“You don’t need to deliver what my sister wants; I, her brother, will pay for it.”

But Long Haochen didn't think there was anything wrong with his behavior.

Anything his sister wants, he, as her older brother, will naturally arrange for it. If he's not capable enough, there's always his father, Long Xingyu, and he will continue to improve himself.

There's really no need to bring other random men.

"This is different, okay? This is a thank-you gift, an apology gift!"

Lin Xin was at his wit's end. His bright green hair was all messed up. His tone was full of helplessness, but he didn't know how to look at Long Haochen.

"No need for gifts."

Long Haochen said casually, and relying on his superior spiritual power and speed compared to Lin Xin, he quickly pressed the button to raise the price again.

This herb is quite sought after, and other customers frequently make bids.

When Bai Xi met Lin Xin's pleading eyes, she sided with Long Haochen and said this.

"Chenchen is right, no need for gifts. I didn't do anything, and neither did you."

Lin Xin's smile froze instantly. He looked at Long Haochen and then at Bai Xi, and began to accuse the brother and sister.

"Good grief, so I've not only run into a sister-complex guy, but also a brother-complex guy! No wonder, no wonder..."

No wonder Bai Xi, who was hiding her arrogant personality, always refuted him when he flirted with her about how handsome he was in front of her.

"You're just so-so. I have an older brother named Long Aotian, who lives up to his name in every way, and he's the most handsome man in the world..."

Looking at it now, this Brother Long Aotian is indeed very handsome, and he has indeed lost.

The herb that Bai Xi wanted was ultimately purchased by Long Haochen.

However, it was Lin Xin, who knew more about auctions, who paid the money.

When the people from the auction house brought the item over, Lin Xin immediately shouted:
"Today, the bill for this private room will be transferred from my account."

Long Haochen's half-extended magic crystal stopped, and his fist hardened.

When Haoyue took a fancy to a mysterious stone worth 10,000, Long Haochen's clenched fist hardened even more.

His father, who favored girls over boys, believed in raising sons frugally and daughters lavishly, and hardly gave him any gold coins. He has only earned a little over three thousand from his magic crystal card so far!
I simply can't afford it!!!
Haoyue probably realized that Long Haochen was out of money, so she immediately used her chubby, pufferfish-like body to rub against Bai Xi's hand.

Fortunately, when it came out this time, it maintained the adorable look that Bai Xi had certified.

"So this is what Haoyue wants. We must grant your wish."

Bai Xi pulled Haoyue close and squeezed its bouncy body a couple of times. The feel of it was really good, like kneading a balloon.

This time, Lin Xin reacted quickly and immediately pressed the bidding button!
"I finally managed to buy it!"

Lin Xin, whose hand had been glued to the bidding device the whole time, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But Long Haochen's face had already turned black.

"Bai Xixi, if you become rich and powerful, don't forget me!" Lin Xin said to Bai Xixi with tears in his eyes when they parted.

Long Haochen finally couldn't hold back his fist.

"That's enough. This is my sister. Stay away from her. I'll find a way to pay you back today's money."

After throwing a punch that missed its mark, Long Haochen glared fiercely at Lin Xin and said something. Then he grabbed Bai Xi's hand and left without looking back.

"Brother Long, please don't misunderstand, Bai Xixi and I..."

Lin Xin reached out Er Kang's hand to explain, but Long Haochen wouldn't listen.

*

Long Haochen pulled Bai Xi straight back to the hotel. After seeing Haoyue off, he closed the door and interrogated Bai Xi.

As Long Haochen grew older, his elder brotherly authority gradually emerged. He simply sat opposite Bai Xi, saying nothing, silently watching her.

Bai Xi immediately surrendered and took the initiative to tell the whole story.

“I do know Lin Xin, and the Feng Aotian he mentioned is indeed me.”

"I just don't know how he recognized me, it's strange."

"I met him during the year or so I was away from home. At that time, I disguised myself and made up the name Feng Aotian."

"They even gave me a name like Long Aotian?"

Long Haochen took over the conversation, asking in a low voice, full of resentment.

"What a lovely name! And our names even sound like sibling names, don't they?"

Bai Xi, however, was not at all guilty, saying that the name Long Aotian was very good, and that one should be a little more like Long Aotian in life.

"Is the friend you mentioned before him the one? Is the jar you gave him containing the processed corpse of the Emerald Twin-Blade Demon?"

Long Haochen stopped paying attention to those details and instead asked Bai Xi about the important matter at hand.

"Yes, that thing is useful."

There's nothing wrong with admitting these things, Bai Xi nodded and continued.

"Actually, you really misunderstood at the auction. Lin Xin and I are just like-minded friends. In fact, he is also my mentor. He is the one who truly introduced me to the world of potion masters."

However, Lin Xin only opened the door to becoming a potion master for Bai Xi. After entering this world, Bai Xi's progress was incredibly rapid, far surpassing Lin Xin's.

Hearing this, Long Haochen's wariness of Lin Xin lessened considerably, leaving only one last thing on his mind.

"What did he mean by saying 'If we become rich and powerful, let us not forget each other' at the end?"

"He's also going to participate in the Demon Hunter Team selection competition. He knows I can make it into the top three, so he hopes I won't forget to choose him when the team is formed."

Speaking of this, Bai Xi had something to say, recalling something that left her speechless.

"You wouldn't believe it, although Lin Xin is an excellent potion master and magician, but—"

"He doesn't know any offensive magic! So when it comes to the final formation of the demon hunter team, I doubt anyone will choose him."

"But he also likes to travel across the continent. He encountered danger while traveling alone before, and I, being nosy, saved him, which is how we met."

"For him, the Demon Hunter Group was just a way to have some people accompany him on his travels across the continent and protect this incredibly fragile mage."

Mages are already fragile, and mages who can't use offensive magic are even more fragile.
