I Inherit An Auction House At The Start, Trillion Times Rebate!

Chapter 180: Spending Money to Buy a Life

“Humph, you’re just a first-class executioner. What right do you have to question me?” Zhao Yong said disdainfully.

He was very angry at this moment. Cao Zhen, who he had carefully nurtured, was killed. He himself had not been able to gain any benefits.

Now, he was still being questioned by a first-class executioner. It was really embarrassing.

“You don’t think I have the qualifications. Then, should we go find someone who has the qualifications?” Qianqian said coldly.

It was inconvenient for Zi Yue to show her face, but if Zhao Yong insisted, it was not impossible for her to change her identity.

Hearing this, Zhao Yong’s face alternated between green and white.

He knew that the eighth prince was at the scene. If he really came out, the eighth prince might be biased and even kill Zhao Yong.

“Forget it. I was negligent in this matter. I apologize to Manager Lin,” Zhao Yong said through gritted teeth.

However, everyone knew from his attitude that this was not an apology at all.

Seeing this, Lin Mo did not waste any more words. He immediately controlled the puppet to come over and raised the Purple Heart Dragon Light Sword in his hand.

“Hey, he’s from the Ministry of Justice and you still want to kill him?” Qianqian walked in front of Lin Mo and reminded him.

“So what?” Lin Mo smiled disdainfully.

“You sneaked up on me for Cao Zhen’s ring. The way you look at me seems like you don’t think that you’re wrong at all.”

“Do you really think that I’m that easy to bully? Do you really think that anyone can attack me?”

Lin Mo said coldly. As he said that, the puppet began to attack. The Purple Heart Dragon Light Sword let out a faint dragon’s roar that reverberated throughout the auction hall.

“Lin Mo, you dare to make a move?”

Zhao Yong was shocked. He did not expect Lin Mo to be so decisive to make a move just like that.

“Not only do I want to make a move, I also want to cripple you.”

After Lin Mo finished speaking, he walked to the front of the puppet with the Swimming Dragon Steps and took the Purple Heart Dragon Light Sword. The profoundness of the Four Seasons Sword Technique was displayed.

This Zhao Yong’s strength was the same as the puppet. They were both at the tier 15 Dragon Transformation Realm.

However, with the puppet supporting Lin Mo, and Lin Mo’s sword technique being profound and unfathomable, it was difficult to guard against.

In just a dozen or so encounters, Zhao Yong had suffered heavy injuries from taking a punch from the puppet and the Spring and Autumn Exchange.

“Qianqian... If you watch your comrade being killed, you won’t be able to explain yourself even if you go back...”

Zhao Yong spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and his speed suddenly decreased. Lin Mo found an opening again, and a sword ray slashed onto his body.

“Lin Mo, stop. Zhao Yong is the second prince’s trusted aide. You can’t kill him...” Qianqian said anxiously.

At the same time, her gaze would look toward the private room on the second floor from time to time.

It was silent there and there was no movement.

Seeing this, she could only shake her head helplessly. Could it be that the eighth princess also wanted to kill Zhao Yong?

“Manager Lin, I know that I have some friendship with you. It’s better to let others off.”

A man walked out with a hint of helplessness and worry on his face.

“Hey, isn’t that Qi Yueheng, the head of the Qi clan? He dares to participate in a battle of this level?”

Some people were curious. Whether it was Zhao Yong or Lin Mo, they could kill Qi Yueheng with one sword strike.

Even so, Qi Yueheng dared to go out. Was he not afraid of death?

“Qi Clan Leader, I naturally treat you as a friend. However, others are bullying me, so how can I forgive them?” Lin Mo said indifferently.

Just as Lin Mo was about to kill Zhao Yong, Zi Yue’s ethereal voice came from the private room on the second floor, “Manager Lin, please show mercy...”

The door of the private room was opened, and Zi Yue walked out slowly with a veil over her face.

“I didn’t expect Lady Zi Yue to come out and plead for mercy.”

“After all, this person belongs to the Yanhuang Divine Empire. The Ministry of Justice can’t say anything about him being executed for his mistake, but there will always be resentment.”

“Lady Zi Yue has come forward to plead for leniency. It’s a good plan to pull the relationship between the holy land and the Yanhuang Divine Empire closer...”

Under the various opinions, Zi Yue slowly came in front of Lin Mo.

“Manager Lin, I have a proposal here. I don’t know if it’s feasible,” Zi Yue said with a faint smile.

“Lady Zi Yue, please speak.” Lin Mo called back the puppet and said with a smile.

“This person wants money, so how about this? Let him spend money to buy his life. It can also be considered as an explanation to both sides. How about it?” Zi Yue said. Although she could not kill the second prince’s trusted aide, she could still make him bleed a little.

“Eh, this is a good idea. Our Ministry of Justice is not unreasonable. Zhao Yong was in the wrong first. Now that he has paid for his life, the grudge between the two of you will be written off.”

Qianqian clapped her hands and said. Her words blocked Zhao Yong’s path of retreat.

If he refused, then even if he did not die today, he would not be able to keep his cultivation base.

Moreover, if he lost his cultivation base, he would probably be killed by Qianqian on the way back.

Thinking of this, he started to hesitate again...

Sending Cao Zhen to test Lin Mo was just one of the reasons he came out this time. His real purpose was to collect the money from the chamber of commerce under the second prince.

If he really handed over this money, he would still die when he returned...

“Zhao Yong, what are you still hesitating for? Quickly take out all your treasures. Even Lady Zi Yue has pointed out a way out for you.”

Qianqian suppressed her laughter and said.

Especially when she saw Zhao Yong’s expression, which was as if he had eaten a dead fly, she felt a wave of relief in her heart.

“Looks like you don’t really want to live... Alright then, after I kill you, all the things on your body will be mine...”

Seeing this, Lin Mo got the puppet to walk over with a sword in hand and was about to make a move.

“Wait, I’ll give you 5 million spiritual stones as compensation.”

Seeing the puppet walking over, Zhao Yong retreated several steps and gritted his teeth.

“It’s not enough.”

Lin Mo said coldly, but the puppet did not stop moving at all.

“8 million.”

“10 million...”

“How much do you want?”

Zhao Yong roared. At this moment, the puppet had already walked up to him and raised its sword.

“20 million low-grade spiritual stones and the golden armor on your body.”

Lin Mo stopped the puppet and said with a smile. This price was a little high, but it was not to the point where it was too much.

“This won’t do. This golden armor is exclusive to third-grade executioners. Even if I give it to you, you won’t be able to sell it...”

Zhao Yong shook his head. As executioners, the golden armor was a symbol of their status.

Just like Qianqian, the black armor on her body was also a symbol of her status. No executioner was willing to exchange it or sell it.

“You don’t have to worry about that. I can naturally find a buyer.” Lin Mo shook his head and refused to give in.

As he spoke, the puppet moved again and the longsword in his hand was about to fall.

“Alright... I’ll give it to you.”

Looking at the sword light on it, Zhao Yong’s heart was struggling violently. He had failed in the task given to him by the second prince.

Not only that, even the golden armor that symbolized his identity was about to be lost.

At this moment, the auction house was completely silent.

These people did not dare to imagine that Lin Mo was a little too daring.

Although he was in the right, he would not let anyone off. He was more or less not taking Yan Huang Divine Empire’s Ministry of Justice seriously.

“Take care, I won’t send you off.”

Taking the spiritual stones and the golden armor from Zhao Yong’s hands, Lin Mo smiled and waved his hand, causing Zhao Yong’s expression to turn even uglier.

“Manager Lin, the troublemakers have all been suppressed. Do you think this Purple Heart Dragon Light Sword will continue to be auctioned?”

After sending Zhao Yong away, Zi Yue looked at Lin Mo.

She had originally thought that if she saved Lin Mo, Lin Mo would be able to properly work for her in the future.

Unexpectedly, at the last moment, this tier 15 Dragon Transformation Realm puppet had turned the tide of the battle.
