“What the three of them said should be true. Those who want to make things up to get potions are all villains. Those three boys are quite strong. I can tell that they’ve received tough training. Besides, their words and behavior are very systematic. This world is larger than you think. There are too many powerhouses who don’t come out into the world. Naturally, there are also extremely low-profile organizations. No matter how many of them we see, they’re just a small part.”
Xia Qing frowned and pondered. There was a deep meaning in what her teacher said. “You mean… everything we know right now isn’t everything?”
Yun Feng smiled lightly and touched the top of Xia Qings head. “What we know is just the inside of a circle. What we don’t know is the vast world outside of the circle. Compared to the part we don’t know, what we know is very little.”
Xia Qing was very surprised. Yun Feng patted Xia Qing’s shoulder. “So, there’s no limit to learning. There’s too much to learn.”
“Although I don’t quite understand, I more or less know what you mean, teacher. There’s no limit to learning. Even you have too many things to learn.”
Yun Feng nodded in satisfaction as she thought about it. The Alliance of Killers had appeared. She would wait and see what else would appear during this auction.
The East and West Alliance was very efficient. Chunfeng Town, which originally didn’t have an Auction House, had built one in a short period of time. Even though it hadn’t officially joined the system of the Auction Houses yet, the most important auction would be held here.
The Auction House was formed. The East and West Alliance soon sent well-trained staff here. The most popular place was this newly established Auction House. Even though nobody was allowed to enter, this place was surrounded every day. Everyone was waiting for the latest news about the potion.
At least a few hundred people came to ask about the potion auction every day, but the East and West Alliance were very tight-lipped. As long as Yan Ming didn’t allow it, no news would leak out easily. This invisibly added a lot of mystery to the potion auction, making these people even more itchy.
The renovation of the Yun family’s old house was also very eye-catching. The Mei family had sent someone here a few times, but the old butler brushed them off with a few words. In the eyes of the public, it was normal for the Yun family’s old house to be renovated. There was nothing strange about it.
Ever since the East and West Alliance announced that the potion auction was held in Chunfeng Town, more than ten days had passed. The East and West Alliance seemed to have been suppressing the news to create momentum, which made these audiences itch, let alone those who really wanted to bid for it. The three young people hadn’t been here again since they left that day and the members of the Alliance of Killers didn’t show up. Yun Feng didn’t care much. She believed that they would definitely appear again on the day the auction was held.
Seeing that more and more people were flooding into Chunfeng Town, if they continued to suppress the news, this town would probably explode. When Yun Feng was about to look for Yan Ming, Yan Ming came uninvited. Yun Feng chuckled when she saw him. “I was thinking of looking for you. I didn’t expect you to come.”
Yan Ming chuckled and sat down without hesitation. “I was thinking that it’s time for you to find me. I’m here to discuss the potion auction with you.”
“Haven’t you prepared everything?” Yun Feng chuckled. Yan Ming shook his head with a helpless smile. ‘Even so, you’re still the master of this potion. There are some things I need to tell you.” Yan Ming raised his brows. “Has someone already looked for you?”
“You know. It seems that you’ve been approached too.”
Yan Ming nodded. “Although they’re not the real deal, a few groups of people have already come.”
“A few groups of people?” Yun Feng raised her brows. Yan Ming looked up.
“More people expressed their interest in this pharmacist and came to ask me about the situation of the pharmacists. I certainly could only keep my mouth shut and make them unhappy.”
Yun Feng frowned. She knew that Yan Ming must be in a lot of trouble. “It’s been hard on you.”
“That doesn’t matter. I can completely tell them that I don’t know. Even though they’re angry in their minds, they can’t attack me, but I’m afraid this potion auction will be a bit troublesome.”
“It’s fine. I don’t care who the potion goes to. I only care who can recognize this map.”
Soon, there was finally concrete news after more than ten days of high emotions at the potion auction. The General Manager of the East and West Alliance, Yan Ming, finally released the latest news. The auction would be held in three days. By then, buyers would be welcome.
Once the news spread, Chunfeng Town was stirred again. The enthusiasm that had been accumulating for an unknown period of time finally burst out one day. The people gathered at the Auction House even swarmed forward. They were in full swing. Everyone wanted to get the admission ticket to this auction ahead of others. Even if they didn’t have the wealth to participate, it would be an unforgettable experience to see it with their own eyes.
“Xiao Fengfeng, I’m exhausted.” Qu Lanyi walked into the door of the Yun family with a gloomy face. He walked over unsteadily and leaned against Yun Feng with his slender body. He extended his arm and stopped Yun Feng. He buried his head in Yun Feng’s black hair and heaved a tired sigh. “Yan Ming is definitely taking revenge for his own interests!”
Yun Feng chuckled. As the news was released, the Auction House would definitely be extremely busy. Even Qingqing went over to help. She originally wanted to go, but Yan Ming rejected her righteously. She could only sit here and be an idle person, watching them busy.
Yun Feng smiled and let Qu Lanyi lean against her. She knew that he wasn’t really tired. She said, “Thank you for your hard work, Lanyi. Thank you for your help with the Auction House during this period of time.”
The man held Yun Feng even tighter with his arm. “What do you mean? I’m just complaining to Yan Ming. I’m willing to work for my wife.”
Yun Feng curled her lips and suddenly remembered that when he was in the Masang School of Magic, he was also leaning against her while he was still in women’s clothes. It was just that he made her a bit uncomfortable at that time. Thinking of this, Yun Feng couldn’t help but laugh.
“Tell me what you’re thinking.” Qu Lanyi held Yun Feng and swayed her gently.
Yun Feng whispered, “You’ve been leaning against me like this since the
Masang School of Magic.”
Qu Lanyi held her even tighter with a smile. He raised her chin and covered it gently with his lips. After a gentle kiss, the man’s eyes were full of teasing light. “I couldn’t do this to you back then, even though I really wanted to do it..”
