Cultivation Pet Shop

Mu Xiao Hai quickly went down and purchased the item that Lin Fan wanted.

The bidding war was fierce, but after a certain point, it reached a price that most people couldn't accept anymore. At that time, when Mu Xiao Hai suddenly raised the bid by another thousand crystals, it would deter most of the people who still wanted this item.

The price had just reached thirty thousand crystals and the bids were coming in much slower compared to when the auction had just started, it was at this time that Mu Xiao Hai suddenly increased the bid by another thousand crystals.

Before this, the bid had increased by at most a hundred crystals each time, but now someone was suddenly jumping up by this much. Everyone couldn't help looking at Mu Xiao Hai in surprise, but it was a good thing that he had already covered himself up with a cloak.

Still, there were people who didn't give up and tried using their spiritual senses on him. However, Mu Xiao Hai wasn't a pushover, he was the scion of the Legendary Realm Mu Family. Even at his young age, he was already in the peak of the Gold Realm, preparing to break through to the Platinum Realm.

He easily repelled the spiritual senses that tried to sweep over him and once that happened, no one else dared to sweep him again. This was clearly an expert, once was the accepted custom and anyone who tried sweeping someone a second time generally had bad intentions. There was no one who was willing to offend an unknown expert for such a small reason.

After Mu Xiao Hai made his bid, there were a few people who were hesitant since they still wanted to make another bid.

Hong Mei could naturally see this, so she began stalling once again. After a bit of stalling, there was finally someone who made another bid by adding another fifty crystals to the price, but that didn't last long.

As soon as that other person made his bid, Mu Xiao Hai shouted out, "Thirty two thousand crystals!"

This completely crushed the spirits of the remaining hopeful bidders since they were hoping that he was just making a desperate bid. However, the rich really didn't care about money, he actually threw out another thousand crystals so casually…

Lin Fan had actually been contacting Mu Xiao Hai during this time and he had told him that the price didn't matter. He also told him that when anyone made a bid, he was to increase that bid to the nearest thousand digit.

The only person that Lin Fan was worried about was Elder Chen, but it seemed like he wasn't interested in this item since he hadn't heard a peep from Elder Chen's VIP room at all.

Since that was the case, Lin Fan was assured that he would get this easily.

Hong Mei tried to stall once again, but she could tell from the crowd that no one was going to make another bid. Eventually she could only give a sigh on the inside as she announced, "Sold to number 356 for thirty two thousand crystals! We hope you enjoy your item!"

Mu Xiao Hai didn't linger any longer as he immediately headed out as soon as he finished purchasing this item. He wanted to head back to the VIP room, but Lin Fan had told him to pick up the items first after transferring the crystals needed over to Mu Xiao Hai.

Mu Xiao Hai had no choice as he went over to the exchange desk and exchanged for the items that Lin Fan had bought.

Normally the exchange desk would require identification, but once Mu Xiao Hai revealed his identity, they didn't dare hold him there any longer and immediately exchanged the items for him.

Once that was taken care of, Mu Xiao Hai came back to the room and put the items on the table in front of Lin Fan.

Yang Yun had poured a cup of tea for him once he came in and she brought it over to him. She didn't forget to add, "Good work."

Mu Xiao Hai's eyes lit up when he saw this and he happily took the tea from her, not forgetting to hold her hand a bit as he said, "Xiao Yun, you're the best."

For some reason, Lin Fan's words couldn't help floating to the top of Yang Yun's head at this moment and then she strangely didn't slap Mu Xiao Hai's hand away like normal. She just nodded and let him hold it a bit before he let go himself.

Mu Xiao Hai was stunned by this, but then he revealed a wide smile. It seemed like acting like a man had worked in attracting Yang Yun, he needed to come up with more plans like this.

However, he didn't know just how wrong he was.

Lin Fan revealed a smile when he saw this before turning his attention back to his items.

After confirming they were the right items, Lin Fan called out Xiao Huo to give it the feather before putting the strange stone away in his storage. He would have Momonga help him take a look at that strange stone later.

When Xiao Huo came out, everyone else in the room other than Angela was surprised to see it, but they could also accept it.

Now that Lin Fan was in the Platinum Realm and with the abilities he had demonstrated as a Master Monster Trainer, it seemed right that he would have a pet that would be at this level. People no longer assumed that this pet was one that his master had given him. But of course, no one knew that there was a master in this shop just yet since the system hadn't revealed itself.

Back when Elder Hua had kicked Lin Fan in the face, normally it would have meant that the system would block this attack before it had hit Lin Fan and would have reflected it at Elder Hua, but the system didn't do it this time.

When Lin Fan had questioned the system about this later, the system's answer had been shocking.

"Host, because the attack was deemed to be an attack without hostility and could cause no injuries to the host, it was deemed as an attack without malice, so the system's automatic defenses didn't trigger."

Lin Fan was shocked as he had said, "Does it matter if there's malice or not? Doesn't the automatic defense exist to protect the host? Why would any of this even matter?"

"Host, the system isn't here to babysit the host. Please defend yourself once in a while."

Lin Fan couldn't understand this answer at all.

Actually, since the system had gone up a grade, the replies of the system had been changing ever so slightly. Lin Fan had felt that it was no longer as cold as before and it seemed like the system had somehow gained a personality.

Still he wouldn't give up on this. If one day the automatic defenses were gone, it would mean trouble for him.

"Still, the automatic defense should exist to protect the host from all harm in the shop. It shouldn't matter what kind of harm it is."

"Host, please stop acting like a spoiled child. First warning!"

Once the warning came, Lin Fan knew that there was no point in arguing any longer. Whenever the warnings came, it meant that the system had just had enough of him and wouldn't allow anymore discussion.

But even though the warnings came, Lin Fan hadn't actually been punished by the system in a while. Maybe there really was something wrong with the system…

Still there was no time to consider that.

Lin Fan took the Ice Phoenix Feather and gave it to Xiao Huo whose eyes immediately lit up after taking a sniff of it.

Xiao Huo sucked in and drained the feather of its phoenix bloodline before patting its stomach in satisfaction. It then curled up in Lin Fan's lap and fell asleep as it began digesting this bloodline.

The auction continued after that, but every single item that came after that was not something that Lin Fan was interested in.

Finally it came close to the end of the night and when Lin Fan and Elder Hua were expecting their item to come out for the climax, there was another item that came out first that caught them off guard.

Hong Mei got the crowd riled up before introducing the next item, "Now for our second to last item, this is one that everyone will not want to miss!"

But then without any further delay, she had the crew at the back of the stage bring out the item which was a capped white jade bottle.

Then the moment she uncapped the bottle, there was a strong medicinal scent that filled the entire hall.

Turning it, there was a pill that dropped out of the bottle and landed right in Hong Mei's hand which she held up to show everyone.

Lin Fan looked at it and was surprised to find that it was a pill that was deep blue in colour, looking just like a sapphire.

That was right, it was an Enlightenment Pill!
