Qian Duoduo was seen looking around furtively, and the pillar where he was hiding could not hide his round figure at all.

He entered Lin Hao's room only after making sure that no one was there. As soon as he entered, he poured himself a cup of tea, took a gulp and began to complain to Lin Hao about his experiences in the past five days.

"You don't know how I spent the past five days. I practiced very hard! I wasn't even given food! I wasn't even allowed to sleep! Uncle He stared at me for five days straight, and I'm only seven years old! This has affected my development. What if I don't grow taller?"

Lin Hao put aside his previous thoughts and looked at the chattering child in front of him, happy to listen to his complaints.

But looking at his still round figure, the corners of his mouth twitched. He said he had suffered for five days, but looking at his figure, he didn't seem to have lost any weight.

Putting away my inner complaints, I asked curiously, "Then how did you get out?"

Qian Duoduo put away his aggrieved expression and said in a low voice, "I used some Ecstasy Incense... just a little bit."

Lin Hao: “…”

Seeing Lin Hao's indescribable expression, Qian Duoduo explained: "I saw that Uncle He hadn't slept for five days, and I was worried that he was tired."

Do you think I believe it?

Not wanting to be stared at by Lin Hao anymore, Qian Duoduo quickly changed the subject, "Ahem... Actually, I want to ask you to come here for another matter. Our Feihuafang Auction House is going to hold an auction. Do you want to join me in the fun?"

"The disciple-recruiting conference will be held in ten days. Why is the auction being held at this time?" Lin Hao was a little confused.

"You don't understand this. The levels of the Disciple Recruiting Conference are different every year, but they are all difficult without exception. Some small families or those with some money will prepare more elixirs, magic tools, and talismans for their children, and if we hold an auction at this time, the prices of those things will definitely increase a lot." Qian Duoduo explained.

"You are worthy of being the richest man!" Lin Hao gave him a thumbs up. There is a reason why rich people have more and more money.

"Don't waste time here. It will be dark if you don't go out." As he said this, he anxiously pulled Lin Hao out.

"Hey, wait! Have you kept your valuables? Don't get kidnapped again." Lin Hao did not forget to remind Qian Duoduo even as he was being dragged away.

"I put it away long ago! Am I a person who has no memory?"

"Um... maybe..."

"you!!!"

The two of them ran out noisily. Not far behind them, Uncle He, who should have been asleep, stood still and waved to the people beside him, saying, "Send more people to protect the young master and Young Master Lin."

"Yes." The person next to him hesitated to speak, obviously he had something else to ask.

"Just say what you want to say." Uncle He said to the person next to him.

"If you want to let the young master go out to play, why do you go through so much trouble?" the man asked puzzled.

Uncle He explained with a look of relief in his eyes: "After being detained for five days, he should be able to relax, but we can't let the young master think that this opportunity came too easily. The young master's character is too lazy and needs to be corrected. This time, this friend is very good. It can be seen that he is a hardworking person who complements the young master..."

On Changming Street, there are more people on the street today than on the day Lin Hao first arrived. It is busy with traffic and looks extremely prosperous.

Because there was still some time before the auction, the two did not want to sit and wait inside, so they came to Changming Street to stroll around.

Seeing these strange-shaped stones on a street stall, Lin Hao squatted down curiously and picked up a small stone to look at it.

Seeing this, Qian Duoduo squatted down and explained, "This is Xuanjing Ore, one of the basic materials for refining magic tools."

The vendor didn't pay attention to Lin Hao at first, but when he saw Qian Duoduo, his attitude immediately changed and he smiled with wrinkles all over his face.

Although Qian Duoduo didn't bring any valuable magic tools, the boss still recognized the clothes and the storage ring on his hand. This is a rich man.

"Young Master, you have good eyesight. This is the Mystical Essence Stone. And I dug this piece out from the center of the mine. Don't be fooled by its small size. This is the best of the best. It contains spiritual essence..."

Qian Duoduo's face was puffed up, and he was dissatisfied with the stall owner who treated them as a fool. He whispered in Lin Hao's ear: "Don't listen to his nonsense. This is just an ordinary black stone. There is no spiritual essence in it. Besides, this piece is too small. If you want, I will get you a bigger one. This piece is so big that it can't even make a sword tip."

"No need, just take a look. I haven't started practicing yet, so it's useless to give it to me." Lin Hao wanted to put down the Xuanjing Stone in his hand.

"Just keep it ready, it will be useful sooner or later, I..."

Before Qian Duoduo could finish his words, he was interrupted by a cute and sarcastic voice.

"The young master of Fei Hua Fang actually went out shivering like that. Did your Fei Hua Fang go bankrupt?"

Lin Hao looked in the direction of the voice. The person who spoke was a pretty girl, who looked young, about eleven or twelve years old. Her appearance was not inferior to those actresses who relied on their looks to make a living that Lin Hao had seen in his previous life, but her domineering attitude destroyed her beauty. Behind her were six people who looked like guards.

Qian Duoduo hadn't said anything yet, but the vendor nearby was horrified and shouted, "Miss Fisher is here!"

He hurriedly packed up his stall and ran away without even having time to take back the piece of Xuanjing Stone in Lin Hao's hand, which he praised as the best in the world.

The same went for the other vendors. Soon there was no vendor left in the area.

Other people from other places didn’t understand what was going on. Some cautious people were afraid that something might happen during the approaching disciple-recruiting meeting, so they chose to leave like the vendors, but most of them chose to stay and watch the fun.

"We, Feihua Fang, have stood for tens of thousands of years. We don't need to rely on all these ostentations to prove ourselves like some newly emerged sects." Qian Duoduo stood up and folded his arms, with undisguised disgust in his eyes.

"You!" The girl pointed at Qian Duoduo angrily.

Qian Duoduo, however, had no intention of showing any sympathy to the woman. "What do you mean by you? Did I say something wrong? Look at how these vendors are afraid of you. It's obvious that you do a lot of evil things."

"That's better than people like you who only know how to live off their ancestors' wealth!" When it comes to quarreling, the girl is no match for Qian Duoduo at all, and she stomped her feet in anger.

"Hehe... I haven't even taken advantage of your family's capital!" He patted his forehead as if he remembered something and continued, "Hey! I forgot that you in Qiongyu Pavilion have no capital to take advantage of. What you have now is obtained by your father selling his body." After saying this, he stopped looking at Fisher, as if she was some kind of dirty thing.

This is indeed the fact. Qian Duoduo thinks that Lin Hao is much better looking than Fei Xue. He has a fair and tender face, and his big eyes are particularly beautiful. His smile is particularly gentle and peaceful, which is very comfortable to look at.

However, Lin Hao did not respond. He was already stunned by the three words "Qiong Yu Pavilion".

Qiongyu Pavilion?

Isn’t that the sect that joined forces with the male protagonist in the original novel to swallow up the non-Huafang industry?

Lin Hao just stood up. No wonder when the vendor called out "Fixue" just now, he felt that the name sounded so familiar. He looked at the girl in front of him carefully.

The eleven or twelve-year-old girl in front of him turned out to be Fei Xue, one of the male protagonist's concubines.

Fei Xue's cheeks flushed with anger, and a fierce look flashed across her eyes, especially when he mentioned the humiliating days when her father abandoned her and her daughter and had to endure humiliation. Since she couldn't win the argument, there was no need to argue anymore, so she pulled out the long whip from her waist and swung it at Qian Duoduo.

Lin Hao, who had been looking at Fisher, noticed her action at the first moment. The gentleness between his eyebrows faded away, and his eyes became sharp. Qian Duoduo happened to see this change of expression. In his impression, Lin Hao was always gentle, as if he never had a temper. The last time he saw him with such a sharp look was on the day they first met.

It seemed that every time Lin Hao fought, he would become a different person, completely different from his usual appearance, with a bit of sharpness, coldness, and madness.

Lin Hao threw the Xuanjing Stone in his hand and hit her elbow.

"Ah!" The pain from her elbow made Fei Xue loosen the whip in her hand. She looked fiercely at Lin Hao who had knocked her down.

"A fight has started! Everyone, run!" Most of the onlookers had children with them. Seeing that the disciple recruitment meeting was approaching, no one wanted their children to get into trouble at this critical moment. When they heard that a fight had started, they all ran away with their children without much hesitation.

The few people at the center of the incident didn't care about the onlookers who ran away.
