"Is this guy pretending to be stupid on purpose, or has he been brainwashed?" Lin Chen stood at the door, looking at the other person's leaving figure with a faint look in his eyes.
He originally thought that the other party was acting like himself, but after observing, he found that the other party was serious.
Is it possible that there are really people who only give without receiving any benefits?
'No, that's not right. If the other party really only wanted to contribute but not benefit, how could they get to this point without sufficient resources? And according to my information, he is also the son of the head of the Lin family... Oh, I see, I understand. '
As if he had figured something out, a sneer appeared on Lin Chen's face.
The reason why the other party said it so pleasantly was not because he really had that kind of dedication, but because he was a vested beneficiary and enjoyed the dedication of others, so he could take his words so naturally and so high-sounding!
And the reason for showing this attitude is just to deceive people into working for them for free!
"Originally, I just wanted to have a good time together without disturbing each other. But you think I'm young and easy to bully, so you plotted against me. Do you really think I have no temper?"
Lin Chen sat on the chair and pondered for a long time, and finally a sneer appeared on his face.
Under normal circumstances, the other party should provide benefits next, and then he should be invited to participate in the Jiangcheng Competition and help the Lin family deal with the other two major families. Only through life and death can he gain benefits.
'Oh, during this period, I might have to face difficulties, misunderstandings, and hindrances from my fellow tribesmen, or they might create conflicts with bad intentions, and finally tie me up with family ties and righteousness...'
One conspiracy after another emerged in Lin Chen's mind.
This is not because Lin Chen is dark in his heart, but because of his experience in the Lin family.
You know, your original parents sacrificed for the family, but not only did their children fail to be cared for by the family, but their inheritance was also competed for by the same clan.
They forced themselves out of the clan and ignored them for ten years. Now that they saw their potential, they wanted to kidnap them out of family ties and make them fight for their lives.
No matter how you look at it, this doesn’t look like a kind family!
Lin Chen even suspected that if the people from the Qingyun Sect had not had some friendship with his parents, not only would he not be able to obtain cultivation resources by changing fields, but he might even die of an illness unexpectedly!
Therefore, now Lin Chen has no thought of fighting for it at all!
"But if the other party comes to your door like flies all day long, it will be troublesome. And the Lin family still has some background..."
Lin Chen knocked on the table with his hand, constantly recalling the conversation just now in his mind, looking for useful information.
'Lin Tianhao seemed to have said just now that the Lin family's combat power was seriously damaged...' Lin Chen's eyes gradually brightened as he thought of some key point.
'Steal... ah no, take. 'An idea flashed in Lin Chen's mind.
He had tested it just now. This guy had never experienced a life-and-death fight. If he wanted to, he could kill him in a few seconds.
And Lin Tianming is the leader of this generation of the Lin family. Even he can't fight against himself in the [True Qi Realm], so what if he reaches the [Cyclone Realm]? Besides the foundation-building monk, who else can stop him?
As for the foundation-building monk, his life span is short, and he is probably hiding in a secret room to survive, unable to get out easily. As long as he avoids him, that's all, right?
As for doing this unethically? What a joke! Not only was the Lin family unkind to him, but they also had old grudges. He just took something and did not add insult to injury. If placed in the world of immortality, he could already be called a moral model and a true Taoist immortal!
And what will happen to the Lin family after the cultivation resources are taken away is not something Lin Chen has to consider.
'It seems that it is really necessary to go back...'
'But before that, I still have to further improve my strength...' Lin Chen thought.
After thinking about this, Lin Chen looked at the information on the table.
In about three days, it will be the auction day of the century-old chalcedony, and I have to prepare well.
…
On the second day, Lin Chen took the dandelion directly out of Qingyun Sect, and then used the magic to move forward.
Because he was worried that there would be an ambush or an accident, Lin Chen did not rush as hard as he could, but stopped and stopped along the way.
Finally, after running around all day and night, Lin Chen finally arrived at Jiataifang City in the dusk.
After a day of rest and preparation, Lin Chen followed the address Xu Mengyun said and came to a grocery store in the west of Jiataifang City.
This grocery store doesn't look big, its facade is a bit old, and there are very few people coming and going, mostly mysterious people.
Lin Chen watched for a while and found that many people never came out after walking in. He confirmed that it was the entrance to the auction.
So he no longer hesitated and strode in.
After walking into the grocery store, Lin Chen looked around for a while and saw a middle-aged monk sitting at the counter.
This monk has a strong back and strong body, and the fluctuations of his spiritual energy are truly in the late stage of Qi refining.
Lin Chen's eyes moved. Even one of the gatekeepers had a late-stage cultivation of Qi. It seemed that the power holding this auction was not simple.
"The earth shakes the high hills, and the green mountains are beautiful for eternity."
Lin Chen's voice was calm and cold, without any fuss, and he immediately reported the secret recommendation words given by Xu Mengyun.
When the middle-aged monk heard this, he looked at Lin Chen carefully and said with a smile on his face.
"Looking towards the sea in the east, the water of Linxian River flows for thousands of years."
He answered the secret message with a strong voice, and then reached out and pressed it under the counter. I don't know which mechanism was touched. A half-foot-wide hole opened on the ground next to it, revealing a row of dimly lit stairs, leading to who knows where.
"Guests, please come in and walk along the passage to the end, and you will reach the location where the auction will be held."
The middle-aged monk had no expression on his face and said to Lin Chen calmly.
Lin Chen remained wary of the unfamiliar environment, but did not show any timidity on his face. Instead, he glanced at the other person indifferently and walked up the stairs without hesitation.
The stairs were facing downwards, and there was a lamp placed about a dozen feet away, and the light was a little dim.
After walking along this passage for about a quarter of an hour, he finally reached the end. Lin Chen saw a door with two men in black standing guard on both sides of the door.
Obviously, this is the entrance to the underground auction.
