Chapter 42 Ye Fan Fled, Pavilion Master Xu Just Fawned Over Him?
Following Elder Gu He's revelation, everyone discovered the fact that there was medicine residue inside the elixir, and the auction scene quickly became chaotic.
Everyone had angry looks on their faces, and voices rebuked Azure Cloud Pavilion for openly auctioning fake and substandard elixirs.
Some even looked excited, shouting, "Damn it, get your money back."
"Don't worry, everyone, there may be something wrong."
The chaos at the scene did not last long. A wealthy middle-aged man and a spirited old man came to the auction stage.
"Pavilion Master Xu, do you have to give us an explanation for this matter?"
"Azure Cloud Pavilion has always had a good reputation. It is really chilling that it has done this to undermine our trust today."
Everyone in the audience saw the Pavilion Master coming to the stage in person, and their eyes were locked on him.
"Don't worry, we at Azure Cloud Pavilion will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation today."
"This is Elder Feng, the chief elixir appraiser of our Azure Cloud Pavilion. It was he who appraised these three elixirs before our Azure Cloud Pavilion agreed to auction them."
"Elder Feng's reputation should be familiar to everyone, right?"
Having said that, Pavilion Master Xu signaled Elder Feng who was following behind him.
Azure Cloud Pavilion Elder Feng was as famous as Gu He back then, but now that he is older, he has given up on alchemy and is looking for a leisurely job in Azure Cloud Pavilion.
After hearing this, the audience immediately became quiet, and their eyes turned to respect. Obviously, the old man in front of them still had some status in the hearts of everyone.
Without any extra movement, Elder Feng reached out to take the remaining two pills from Liu'er's hand, and used his spiritual power to explore them.
As an Alchemist, his spiritual power is far beyond that of ordinary people, so he can naturally see clearly what is going on inside the elixir.
"Pavilion Master, these elixirs are indeed fake, they are all waste elixirs."
"It must be that the old man was negligent in the art of alchemy, and he lost his sight for a moment, so he let such useless elixirs flow into the auction."
"This matter is due to the old man's dereliction of duty. I beg the master to deduct two and a half years of the old man's salary as a warning."
After some investigation, Elder Feng said seriously.
He had repeatedly checked these pills back then. Although he didn't know why it happened like this, the facts were before his eyes.
After all, in the nearly hundred years of Azure Cloud Pavilion's business history, many people have used secret techniques to forge elixirs in an attempt to fetch sky-high prices.
This is not the first time this has happened.
"Elder Feng, don't blame yourself. It's not your fault, but the skills of the little thief who forged the elixir."
"Everyone knows that Azure Cloud Pavilion has always paid attention to its reputation and will definitely not do anything to ruin its reputation for temporary gain."
Gu Cheng smiled slightly, gave the other party a step up, and turned his gaze to Pavilion Master Xu on the stage.
Hearing that Gu Cheng took the initiative to speak kindly to their Azure Cloud Pavilion, Pavilion Master Xu, who is a human spirit, naturally followed the stick.
"I, Azure Cloud Pavilion, have always been based on integrity. I act upright and will not do such despicable things as selling fake elixirs."
"Mr. Gu is right. I, Azure Cloud Pavilion, was also the one who was deceived this time."
"To be honest, this elixir was handed over to our bank for auction by a young man in black robe."
"When he first handed the elixir to me, he swore that it was genuine."
"We were also in a hurry to auction, so we were careless and ended up in the current situation."
The boy in black robe?
Hearing that the seller was so young, everyone became more convinced of Gu Cheng's statement.
These three pills are so extraordinary. How could you, a young boy like you, get such valuable items?
"I heard that Azure Cloud Pavilion has also prepared seats for the sellers of the auction items, right in the box on this floor."
"Now that the matter is over, let's call out the seller who provided the elixir and check it out."
"If we have wronged this little brother, Gu is willing to take the lead in apologizing."
Gu Cheng suggested with a smile on his face, a sincere look on his face, but his eyes glanced past the box where Ye Fan was, intentionally or unintentionally.
Catching a glimpse of Gu Cheng's eyes, Ye Fan's expression suddenly changed.
He was still hesitating whether to go up and see for himself what was wrong with the elixir, and then explain it.
Unexpectedly, Gu Cheng took the initiative and asked him to take the initiative to speak out.
"What Mr. Gu said is absolutely true."
"This little friend, please come out and explain."
"If not, Xu will have no choice but to send someone to ask you to come out."
The person selling fake elixirs was here, and Pavilion Master Xu quickly reacted.
I saw Pavilion Master Xu putting his right hand behind his back and clenching it calmly. After seeing several Azure Cloud Pavilion guards hiding in the dark, they surrounded Ye Fan's box.
"Damn it!"
I found that the situation around me took a turn for the worse.
Ye Fan's face was extremely ugly.
Originally, the auction was going well, and he would soon be able to get tens of thousands of Spirit Stones into his account. He had even thought about how to spend these tens of thousands of Spirit Stones.
Unexpectedly, Gu Cheng actually stepped in abruptly.
I thought that Gu Cheng was just looking for trouble, but I didn't expect that there was actually a problem with the elixir refined by Old Yan.
What's worse is that he is currently in danger, and the guards outside the Azure Cloud Pavilion seem to be arresting him.
"It is impossible for others to know about Old Yan's existence."
"In other words, I can't explain the origin of the elixir at all."
"What's more, the top priority now is not to go up and explain why there is a problem with the pill, but not to be caught by them."
"Looks like I have to run away from the auction."
After all, Ye Fan has experienced many life-and-death situations. Faced with unexpected situations, after a brief panic, he quickly judged the situation clearly.
If he were caught and someone discovered that he had the remnant soul of Old Yan hidden in his ring, the consequences would be disastrous.
The Old Yan in the ring is his biggest secret and his biggest support, far more important than tens of thousands of Spirit Stones.
"It must not fall into their hands."
Ye Fan thought clearly about the stakes, condensed his momentum, and shot out of the box in an instant.
Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned.
But many people reacted quickly.
Mr. Gu just asked you to come out and explain, but you actually ran away at full speed. Isn't this using fake elixirs to deceive people?
No need to quibble, right?
"It's indeed a fake elixir. Looking at him like this, I'm afraid he's already ready to run away. Stop him."
Pavilion Master Xu ordered coldly.
As soon as the words fell, the Azure Cloud Pavilion guards moved in response, and all chased Ye Fan.
Faced with the pursuit of this group of powerful guards, Ye Fan did not dare to fight here. After taking a few martial arts moves from the guards, he swayed slightly, and then burst out with extremely fast speed to kill all the guards. Shake off.
Without enough time to look back, Ye Fan didn't dare to stop at all, and rushed outside with all his strength.
Once the guards catch up, he will be in big trouble.
"This kid has a lot of secrets hidden in him."
The eyes of everyone present could not help but shine when they saw that Ye Fan was not only okay despite resisting a few moves, but was also able to explode at extremely fast speeds.
At this time, Ye Fan has become a popular existence in the eyes of everyone.
Not only is he able to refine Earth Rank elixirs that look fake and almost deceive people, but his martial arts skills are also extremely extraordinary.
This means that as long as he is killed, all his secrets and techniques can be collected.
And the most concerning thing is that this young man is an Independent Cultivator and is not affiliated with any sect or force.
This can be seen from his participation in the auction alone.
This kind of Independent Cultivator, even if you kill it directly, you don't have to worry about retaliation from behind. You don't have any worries. It is simply a walking treasure house.
With the same idea, everyone looked at each other and saw greed and murderous intent in each other's eyes.
"If we can catch this kid and get his net worth, I'm afraid it will be a huge harvest."
"This kid probably still has a lot of backup plans. Let's join forces to catch him first, and then divide his treasure."
As soon as he finished speaking, more than a dozen people who had thoughts about Ye Fan flew into the air and chased after Ye Fan.
The huge auction venue suddenly lost a group of people.
"Ding, suppress Ye Fan continuously and put him in trouble. Fortune points +500."
Hearing the system sound coming from his ears again, Gu Cheng couldn't help but smile.
This auction is really worth it.
Not only did he intercept the opportunity that originally belonged to Ye Fan, but he also destroyed the Earth Rank elixir that his master spent a lot of energy refining, causing Ye Fan to lose tens of thousands of Spirit Stones.
Without these Spirit Stones, Ye Fan's speed in improving his cultivation would be greatly affected.
Moreover, before Ye Fan ran out of the auction house, he also used the luck character binding card to bind Ye Fan.
After binding, he can now directly view Ye Fan's information through the system interface, including Ye Fan's recent changes.
In other words, all Ye Fan's next moves and opportunities will be grasped by him in advance.
"Mr. Gu, thank you for your reminder, otherwise our Azure Cloud Pavilion's century-old reputation will be destroyed."
At this time, Pavilion Master Xu, who was standing on the stage, walked up to Gu Cheng and said respectfully.
"Pavilion Master Xu, you're welcome."
"I just have a sense of justice in my heart, and I don't want this villain to deceive everyone."
Gu Cheng smiled.
"Where are you, Mr. Gu?"
"If Mr. Gu hadn't spoken out for justice, I would have spent tens of thousands of Spirit Stones to buy back a waste elixir today, and I would have suffered a heavy punishment when I returned to my family."
"Mr. Gu, I wrongly blamed you before, please accept my apology."
The surrounding bidders expressed their gratitude after hearing Gu Cheng's humble words.
The bidders who had previously questioned Gu Cheng's desire to take the elixir for himself even apologized in an extremely sincere manner.
They originally thought that Gu Cheng wanted to take the elixir for himself, but they did not expect that Gu Cheng actually had good intentions. Instead, they judged a gentleman with a villain's heart.
And they also understood that without Gu Cheng's testimony, they would not have been able to discover Ye Fan's conspiracy at their level.
"It doesn't matter. If I were in your position, I'm afraid I would have the same idea."
Gu Cheng waved his hand, indicating that everyone should not pay attention.
"Mr. Gu, thank you for preserving the reputation of our Azure Cloud Pavilion. This is a gift from our Azure Cloud Pavilion to you. Please don't refuse."
As Pavilion Master Xu spoke, he picked up a square brocade box from the maid behind him and handed it to Gu Cheng.
Hearing this, Gu Cheng hesitated for a moment and took the brocade box.
When he opened it, he found that the brocade box contained a set of splendid thin clothes, which contained a mysterious aura.
"This is the most precious thing that our Azure Cloud Pavilion acquired this year. It's called the Xuan Spirit Treasure Weapon, and it's an Earth Rank Law Weapon."
"I originally wanted to save it for the finale of the next auction."
"But in view of what happened today, I have decided to give it to Mr. Gu as a gift. I hope Mr. Gu likes it."
Pavilion Master Xu introduced.
"Earth Rank Law Weapon?"
Gu Cheng couldn't help being slightly surprised when he heard this.
This is much more precious than ordinary items.
Earth Rank Law Weapon is a rare thing even among the top families.
"Yes, the function of this Law Weapon is defense. It can withstand a full blow from the Primordial Spirit Realm."
Pavilion Master Xu added.
Can you withstand a full blow from the Primordial Spirit Realm?
After hearing about the effects of this product, Gu Cheng's eyes brightened slightly.
From the looks of it, this stuff smells a bit good.
Looking at Cangwu City, only the Supreme Patriarch of other peak families has reached the level of Primordial Spirit Realm.
If he has this treasure, it can be said that he will be safe and worry-free in a short time.
Although he is the young master of the Gu family and has the protection of the Gu family, no one dares to attack him without a long-sighted approach, but no one can guarantee that accidents will not happen.
Just like Son of Fortune Ye Fan, although it seems that Ye Fan may not be able to beat him now.
But if Ye Fan uses some kind of treasure to attack secretly, he will still be in great danger.
And this Mysterious Spirit Treasure Clothes can just give him an extra margin of error.
"Pavilion Master Xu is so courageous. In this case, it would be disrespectful for me to reject him."
Gu Cheng also knew what Xu Pavilion Master had in mind.
Giving him such a precious Earth Rank robe was partly to thank him for exposing the fake elixir today, and partly to hope that he could connect with the Gu family through him.
This mysterious Spirit Treasure garment was a meeting gift given to him by Azure Cloud Pavilion.
certainly.
There is no need to elaborate on such details.
As long as the two of them have a tacit understanding.
Next, Gu Cheng chatted with Pavilion Master Xu for a while, then said goodbye and left.
