Upon seeing this, Du Fan smiled. It seemed that the backer behind the scenes of this auction house was quite strong!
“Do you know that there have been rumours about you recently?” The Chief Steward said, his eyes falling on them.
Du Fan smiled brightly: “It doesn’t matter, because we don’t care.”
When he heard those confident words, the Chief Steward’s eyes flickered slightly: “Since your Excellency is so confident, I won’t say anymore.” When the two old men beside him heard this, they couldn’t help but nce at the Chief Steward. Then they looked at each other and one of them couldn’t help but ask: “Did you really fight against the Asura King? Is it true that they abandoned their armour and fled?”
“If it weren’t true, these things wouldn’t be here.” Gray Wolf grinned. He took a piece of pastry from the table and ate it as he continued speaking: “You’re quite brave to take these things off our hands!”
They smiled when they heard this but said nothing. Of course there wasn’t just the Asura King with great forces in this continent. Since they dared to take them, they obviously had a strong backer.
“If you have other things to sell in the future, feel free to bring them here.”
The Chief Steward said to them. Just as he was about to say something else, he saw a white-haired old man walking in from outside. As soon as he saw the old man, a strange look shed across the Chief Steward’s eyes. He stood up quickly and saluted: “Elder Lin.”
“Greetings Elder Lin.” The two old men beside him also stood up quickly and saluted. Compared to their casual demeanour before, they were now more restrained with the appearance of the old man.
“Mmm.”
The old man responded but didn’t look at them. Instead, his gaze fell onto Du Fan and the others with scrutiny as he sized them up. There was also an obvious breath of superiority.
Under the scrutiny of the other party, Du Fan and the others also looked back at him. A trace of surprise crossed their hearts as the breath on the old man’s body was unfathomable and it gave them a dangerous feeling.
“You may leave.” He waved his hand and motioned for the Chief Steward and the other two old men to retreat.
Upon hearing this, the Chief Steward and the two old men looked at each other, then responded: “Yes.” Then, they stepped back respectfully.
Du Fan raised his eyebrows when he saw this, and he said to the Chief Steward who had walked outside: “Tell them to settle the bill quickly, we don’t have the time to wait here.”
“Are you the Ghost Doctor’s subordinates?” The old man asked, looking at them, and without waiting for them to reply, he said: “Since you are here, I assume that the Ghost Doctor is also here.”
Upon hearing this, Gray Wolf touched his chin while Lu Yun’s expression remained unchanged. Du Fan brushed his robe and stood up, then he said to Gray Wolf and Lu Yun: “Let’s go! We’ll settle the bill now.”
Perhaps it was because he had been ignored, so the old man’s face darkened. With his hands behind his back, his eyes narrowed as he watched them leave, but he didn’t follow them.
However, after they had settled the bill and left the auction house, the old man with his hands behind his back also left the auction house. He gathered his breath and followed them.
Du Fan and the others left with the money from the auction house and went to the wine shop. After they put the wine they had bought in space, they turned into an alley.N?v(el)B\\jnn
When the old man who had been following them saw that they turned into an alley, he also turned in. However, as soon as he had walked into the alley, he felt like he had been surrounded and a chill rose up his back. He turned around quickly and saw Gray Wolf ginning with evil intent..
