Chapter 502: Chapter 502: Master Thief Little Ape
Guang Xuanji had shouted out four hundred thousand purely to spite Lin Yun. However, when a long moment passed and she didn’t hear Lin Yun continue bidding, her expression gradually grew worried.’This guy isn’t going to back out, is he?’ Guang Xuanji thought worriedly. If Lin Yun really stopped here, she would have to fork over four hundred thousand Middle Grade Primordial Stones.
To Guang Xuanji, spending four hundred thousand Middle Grade Primordial Stones on an Elemental Power Stone was a massive loss, because she had absolutely no interest in it.
Just as Guang Xuanji feared, Lin Yun never raised his bid. At that moment, the auctioneer on the stage announced that Guang Xuanji had won the Elemental Power Stone for the price of four hundred thousand Middle Grade Primordial Stones.
’How infuriating.’ She had never expected things to turn out like this. She had wanted to spite Lin Yun, but instead, he had played her for a fool.
But what was done was done. No matter how unwilling Guang Xuanji was, she had to pay for the Elemental Power Stone. At the Celestial Spirit Auction House, the consequences for bidding and failing to pay were extremely severe.
When the auction concluded, Lin Yun left the private room with a faint smile, accompanied by Li Tian and the others. Throughout the entire event, Lin Yun hadn’t bought a single item; only Mo Qingliu had won a pearl necklace.
Outside the auction house, Lin Yun’s group ran into Guang Xuanji, who wore a sullen expression. Lin Yun walked up to her and said with a faint smile, "Miss Xiaoqing, I didn’t expect to see you at this auction."
Hearing this, Guang Xuanji’s expression darkened, but she quickly put on a smile and replied, "I didn’t realize it was Young Master Lin just now. I snatched away your beloved treasure; I hope you won’t hold it against me, Young Master."
At her words, both Lin Yun and Guang Xuanji chuckled softly. After a moment, Lin Yun said blandly, "You’re too polite, Miss Xiaoqing. It was a fair competition. Since you won, I have nothing more to say. But allow me to offer you a piece of advice: an item this valuable must be guarded well."
Without waiting for Guang Xuanji to reply, Lin Yun turned and left.
Watching Lin Yun’s back as he walked away, Guang Xuanji let out a cold smile. ’If you have the guts, come take it from me at Chunfeng Tower. I’d like to see just how capable you really are.’
Once aboard the carriage, Lin Yun woke up Little Ape, who was sleeping soundly on his shoulder. Pointing at Guang Xuanji’s carriage, he said, "See that carriage? Follow it and bring me back the Space Ring from the woman inside."
