Myth Beyond Heaven

Chapter 1418 Exposed

?

Qin Mei's charming voice immediately woke Zhou Junyi up. He became sobered and said. "It's my fault, Fairy Qin. I am willing to compensate the auction house."

Qin Mei shook her head and said. "Aside from the initial compensation, you will be banned from entering our auction house across the Divine Realm for ten years. This is our rule."

Zhou Junyi's expression turned gloomy, but he dared not say anything. He threw a storage ring to Qin Mei and said. "This is the compensation. Farewell."

He didn't forget to give Yun Lintian a vicious glare before leaving with the middle-aged man.

Qin Mei glanced at the storage ring briefly before putting it away. She turned to look at Yun Lintian with a charming smile. "Tell me, how are you going to pay for my service?"

Her voice was extremely enchanting, which made Yun Lintian's blood boil. 

Thankfully, Yun Lintian had been training for this kind of temptation for a long time. He managed to calm down very quickly.

Yun Lintian put on an innocent smile and said. "What service are you talking about, Senior Qin?"

Qin Mei was surprised by Yun Lintian's stable mind. Normally, her voice could easily overwhelm a weak practitioner without her trying. However, Yun Lintian didn't seem to be affected by it. This made her take a good look at him again.

Seeing his innocent expression, Qin Mei curled her lips and said. "You were clearly aware of my presence before provoking him. If I didn't make a move, I would lose our auction house's face today. Hehe. Don't you need to compensate me after taking advantage of me?"

Yun Lintian spread his hands and said. "Look. Senior just said it yourself. It was your duty to make a move."

"Hmph! How slick you are." Qin Mei snorted annoyingly. "It's fine if you don't want to pay it. At least, you should call me a beautiful sister instead of a senior."

"Alright, Beautiful Sister Qin." Yun Lintian chuckled.

The exchange between Yun Lintian and Qin Mei was within everyone's eyes. Most of the men here couldn't help glaring at Yun Lintian enviously as they wished they could make a conversation with Qin Mei.

"He actually…" Wu Jinjian looked at Yun Lintian in astonishment. 

Beside him, Lou Xuan said. "He is in trouble now. Third Prince won't let him go unless he plans to stay here forever."

Wu Jinjian nodded in agreement. "He might have a powerful background but has forgotten that the Zhou Royal Clan held absolute power here. It seems he isn't smart as we thought."

Wu Jinjian was certainly aware of the earlier bid war. It must be Yun Lintian who directed Ximen Wu from behind. In his opinion, Yun Lintian was no different from courting death by doing this.

Meanwhile, Ye Lianyu took a deep look at Yun Lintian as if she was thinking of something. A moment later, she got up and left directly.

As for Shi Nanhua and Hao Cang. They merely exchanged a glance and left. Whatever happened next had nothing to do with them.

Inside Zhou Ling'er's room, Bai Chun frowned deeply. She racked her brain up, trying to find a way to help Yun Lintian out of the incoming calamity.

"Look at Senior Lin, Aunty Bai." Zhou Ling'er suddenly said. "Does he look worried to you?"

Bai Chun looked at Yun Lintian, talking and laughing with Qin Mei in puzzlement. Indeed, he didn't seem to be someone who was worrying about the incoming disaster at all.

"And the way Fairy Qin treats him is a bit unusual." Zhou Ling'er said further. "The rumors said that she didn't bother to talk with those people from God Emperor's forces who pursued her. It is even more impossible to tease Senior Lin. I think there's more to this than meets the eye… Don't forget that Senior Lin's background is mysterious."

Bai Chun immediately fell into deep thought upon hearing this. 

At this moment, the door was opened, and Ximen Wu walked into the room with Mu Qing following behind.

Ximen Wu quickly closed the door and activated the isolating formation inside the room.

"Cousin. Look." Ximen Wu went straight to the point by showing the Soul Rejuvenating Pill to Zhou Ling'er.

Zhou Ling'er's eyes widened in shock. "How…"

"Brother Lin gave me," Ximen Wu said with a frown. "However, I don't quite understand why he did this."

Zhou Ling'er quickly calmed down and said. "What else did he tell you?"

"He said we should wait for his return here." Ximen Wu replied.

A strange light flashed across Zhou Ling'er's eyes when she heard this. It seemed her conjecture was more or less correct. Yun Lintian must have something to do with the Mystic Auction House.

Under everyone's eyes, Qin Mei drew closer to Yun Lintian and seized him up and down. "You hid it very well. Even I almost failed to notice it."

Yun Lintian smiled and asked. "Why don't you lead the way, Beautiful Sister Qin?"

Qin Mei looked at Yun Lintian deeply and smiled charmingly. "You are really interesting. This sister wants to explore you now."

A hot air blew over Yun Lintian's face, making his blood temporarily boil once again.

Qin Mei chuckled and said. "Follow me. Our Young Miss has already prepared a good tea for you."

"As for her…" She glanced at Ning Yue curiously.

"She will go with me." Yun Lintian said calmly.

Qin Mei nodded gently and led the two into the inner hall under everyone's puzzled gaze.

The inner hall was a restricted area that no one had ever entered, yet Qin Mei actually brought Yun Lintian and Ning Yue over. What was more? She mentioned her young miss. Was she the young miss of the Mystic Auction House?

"Brother Lin. He…" Ximen Wu's mouth opened widely in astonishment. 

Zhou Ling'er took a deep breath and said. "We are truly fortunate to meet him."

***

Qin Mei led Yun Lintian and Ning Yue through a corridor and finally arrived at the innermost room.

Qin Mei's temperament completely changed at this moment. She became more reserved as she spoke respectfully. "Young Miss, I have brought him over."

"Come in." A pleasant female voice resounded from the inside.

Qin Mei carefully opened the door and said to Yun Lintian. "Please."

Yun Lintian didn't say anything and pulled Ning Yue into the room.

Immediately, he saw an elegant woman and a white-haired old man sitting around a wooden table.

The woman looked at him with a smile. "You're Lin Tian. Or should I call you Yun Lintian?"
