Chapter 565 - 565 565 He Doesnt Have to Pay

Chapter 565: Chapter 565: He Doesn’t Have to Pay Chapter 565: Chapter 565: He Doesn’t Have to Pay Star Realm Auction.

“The Alchemy Emperor is invited.”

Upon Feng Wuchen’s arrival, the auction house manager attended to him with great respect immediately.

“Alchemy Emperor, please follow me. I will go and report to the chairman and the elders,” said the manager with a respectful smile.

“There’s no need to disturb them. I’m just here to buy some items and then I’ll leave. You can go about your business; no need to mind me,” Feng Wuchen said politely, very amicable and without any airs.

“Yes!” the manager respectfully withdrew.

A maid came forward to serve, bowing respectfully, and said, “Alchemy Emperor.”

“Go prepare some more forging crystal stones for me, the older the better, and not lower than the sixth rank for forging. Also, gather other auxiliary materials needed for forging and find me a Forging Master to prepare them,” Feng Wuchen said indifferently.

“Also, take some of these herbs for me,” Feng Wuchen handed the maid a list, which contained quite a few herbs.

“Alright, Alchemy Emperor, please wait a moment,” the maid said respectfully before leaving.

The entire Star Realm Auction knew of Feng Wuchen’s identity, and also knew that Second Elder Nie Fengyun was Feng Wuchen’s disciple, so no one dared to show disrespect.

While Feng Wuchen was waiting, the auction hall suddenly became noisy.

A fat man entered the auction house, a “big shot” weighing several hundred jin. With each step, the flesh on his body rolled violently, and when he laughed, his eyes became mere slits.

Seeing such a corpulent person, Feng Wuchen couldn’t help but take another look.

Feng Wuchen had never seen such an overweight person in all his life.

As the fat man entered the hall, a group of people followed behind him, nodding and bowing, even respectfully calling him Young Master Jin!

“Young Master Jin, you haven’t been here for a while. I’ve missed you terribly.”

“Young Master Jin, what treasures are you planning to buy at the auction this time?”

“As long as it’s something this young master likes, I’ll buy it, all of it,” he declared.

“Young Master Jin, you’ve lost weight!”

“Oh? Have I? Haha! Losing weight is good,” he said.

The fat man reveled in pleasure, acting like a high and mighty prince.

The fat man was named Jin Buhuan, dressed in a luxurious robe. Although the fat man’s cultivation level wasn’t impressive, only at the fourth layer of the Tianyuan Realm, his background was significant; he was the Young Master of the Jin family from a merchant house in the Star Realm!

The Jin family was not powerful, but they were extremely wealthy, undoubtedly the number one tycoon in the Star Realm.

Even though they weren’t strong, over the years, they had been at peace because the Jin family was involved in business with many major forces. Any force that did business was linked to the Jin family, including the auction house.

With such a wealthy family, who wouldn’t want to form a connection?

Flattering Jin Buhuan could make someone’s day, if he were pleased. A single word from him could transform you from an ugly duckling into a swan, making you a wealthy person envied by all, propelling you to the pinnacle of life, marrying a fair, rich, and beautiful woman, living a life without worries ever after.

Hence, it gave rise to many who became lazy, hanging around the auction house entrance every day, waiting for a glimpse of Jin Buhuan, meaning their chance to climb to the pinnacle of life had arrived.

“Please mind the threshold, Young Master Jin! Mind the threshold!” someone said with the utmost respect, behaving like a servant.

“Young Master Jin, please take a seat! Order whatever you wish to drink,” another person said, patting the seat with extreme deference.

With Jin Buhuan’s arrival, every cultivator in the hall gathered around him, including a number of beautiful women.

The Jin family had both money and influence—who wouldn’t want to marry into the Jin family and become the Young Mistress?

Watching this, Feng Wuchen silently shook his head, merely having taken a glance out of curiosity.

Just as Jin Buhuan comfortably sat down, he noticed Feng Wuchen seated in another part of the hall.

The entire hall crowded around, yet Feng Wuchen alone behaved as if he saw nothing, which surprised Jin Buhuan.

Jin Buhuan had come to the auction and had never seen anyone who did not fawn over him, even the young masters from the large families had to speak to him with the utmost courtesy.

Because of the Jin family’s business empire.

Money makes the world go round.

“Is this kid an idiot? Doesn’t he know that a single word from me, Jin Buhuan, could let him enjoy wealth and honor for a lifetime?” Jin Buhuan murmured with a slight frown on his thick brows.

“That kid must be a fool, Young Master Jin, just ignore him,” someone dismissed without a second glance, just to curry favor with Jin Buhuan.

“Exactly, exactly, Young Master Jin, just ignore him,” the crowd echoed as if in a chain reaction.

Jin Buhuan was curious to see who had such resolve? To remain unmoved by money, could he be someone with a significant background?

At this moment, a maid approached Feng Wuchen and respectfully handed over a storage ring, saying, “Dan Emperor, the materials and medicinal ingredients you requested are all in the storage ring.”

“Thank you,” Feng Wuchen nodded, then took out some forging crystal stones and materials, as he needed to confirm the age of some materials.

Jin Buhuan summoned a maid and asked, “Who is that guy?”

Hearing this, the maid respectfully answered, “Young Master Jin, it’s better if you don’t get involved.”

Upon hearing the maid’s words, Jin Buhuan also sensed some meaning and asked with surprise, “Does he have a lot of money? Or is he from a major power? How come I have never seen him before?”

“That…” the maid hesitated, unsure how to begin and also unwilling to disclose Feng Wuchen’s identity.

Seeing the maid’s reluctance to speak, Jin Buhuan grew somewhat displeased and decided to go and ask himself.

The maid’s words had clearly struck a nerve with Jin Buhuan, who now wanted to see who this person was.

As Jin Buhuan approached, he saw several pieces of forging materials on Feng Wuchen’s table, and his chubby face revealed a scornful cold smile.

“Kid, with these forging crystal stones, I’m afraid they won’t even be enough for your failures, right? If you fail, the gold coins will just go to waste,” said Jin Buhuan as he lightly patted Feng Wuchen’s shoulder, his words dripping with mockery.

Upon hearing this, Feng Wuchen turned his head for a glance and almost jumped at the sight of Jin Buhuan’s fat face.

Patting Feng Wuchen’s shoulder, Jin Buhuan’s fat face broke into a smile and said, “Just call me Young Master Jin, and I’ll buy you a hundred forging crystal stones! How about that? I, Young Master Jin, have plenty of gold coins.”

“No need, I still have a lot here,” Feng Wuchen said as he released all the forging crystal stones from his storage ring.

“Kid, that’s several hundred forging crystal stones, can you afford them? For me, Young Master Jin, it’s just a matter of a word,” Jin Buhuan said with disdain.

“Sixth-layer forging crystal stones!” someone couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise.

“Sixth-layer forging crystal stones?” On hearing this, Jin Buhuan’s chubby face stiffened in an instant.

“Just one might cost a hundred billion gold coins!” another person exclaimed uncontrollably, as pairs of shocked eyes looked toward the several hundred forging crystal stones.

“A hundred billion gold coins!” Jin Buhuan couldn’t help being startled himself.

“Are you planning to buy them all for me?” Feng Wuchen asked Jin Buhuan with a smile.

“How much… how many gold coins in total?” Jin Buhuan asked the maid with a trembling voice.

“Thirty trillion gold coins,” the maid’s reply scared Jin Buhuan so much his heart almost jumped out of his chest, his face turned pale, and he was at a loss for words.

With a faint smile, Feng Wuchen didn’t bother with any more conversation, took his materials, and left.

“He… he isn’t paying?” People around were puzzled.

The maid smiled and said, “He doesn’t need to pay.”

The maid’s answer directly caused Jin Buhuan to faint.
