Shao Wenzhong originally intended to use Hong Quanlei to teach Qin Ran a lesson.

But unexpectedly, a little girl appeared out of nowhere.

What's terrifying is that this little girl is also a grandmaster.

What's even more terrifying is that Qin Ran is also her master.

This completely shattered Shao Wenzhong's worldview.

He had no choice but to slink away.

But Shao Wenzhong simply couldn't swallow this insult.

He decided to wait until after tonight to talk about it.

After the commotion subsided, the venue returned to its previous calm.

However, everyone was still discussing Qin Ran and Qiao Ling'er's identities.

At the same time, Qiao Ling'er pulled Qin Ran to a secluded place.

"Mr. Qin, this is Hong Quanlei's territory. You can't cause trouble here," Qiao Ling'er said seriously.

"I wasn't the one causing trouble, it was someone else. They started it. Besides, did I agree to be your master? And yet you call me master in public?" Qin Ran retorted.

"I had no choice just now. Hong Quanlei is a man who can't tolerate any nonsense. If I hadn't told him you were my master, he wouldn't have let you off the hook. In order to resolve this matter peacefully, I had no choice but to call you master."

Qin Ran sneered, "On another note, Hong Quanlei has indeed given you a lot of face, am I right, Master Qiao?"

Qiao Ling'er quickly said, "I was able to become a Grandmaster, all thanks to you. You refined the Breakthrough Pill for me, and I will always remember this kindness."

Qin Ran changed the subject: "I don't object to you liking to be high-profile, but you're not allowed to tell anyone that you entered the Grandmaster realm after taking the Breakthrough Pill I refined."

Qin Ran knew that if Qiao Ling'er spread this news...

He will have a constant stream of people looking for him.

Qin Ran didn't want to get into endless trouble.

"Don't worry, I definitely won't tell anyone else."

"You've reached the Grandmaster level at such a young age, which will attract a lot of attention. I advise you to keep a low profile."

"Understood, I will keep your words in mind." Qiao Ling'er suddenly remembered something: "Mr. Qin, I have received reliable information that a priceless treasure will appear at tonight's auction!"

"What kind of priceless treasure?" Qin Ran asked with great interest.

"This treasure is the Kusanagi Sword, which has been missing from Japan for many years."

Qin Ran's eyes widened immediately upon hearing this.

The Ame-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi?

Is it real or fake?

This peerless sword, symbolizing the Japanese imperial family, didn't just disappear for many years; it disappeared for hundreds of years.

It's been about eight or nine hundred years.

How did the Kusanagi Sword end up here?

That sounds like utter nonsense.

"Can you at least prepare your boasts before you start? Do you even know anything about the Kusanagi Sword? It's been missing for over 800 years. You can't believe it's here. You'd be crazy to think of that even if you used your ass." Qin Ran looked at Qiao Ling'er with utter disdain.

This girl's IQ is practically negative.

How could someone say such absurd things?

Qiao Ling'er explained, "Mr. Qin, I'm not lying to you. The Kusanagi Sword will really appear at tonight's auction. I received absolute inside information, there's no mistake about it."

Qin Ran scoffed, "That's definitely a fake, just to fool you suckers."

"If I were to bid on the Kusanagi Sword and give it to you, could you tell if it's real or fake?" Qiao Ling'er asked earnestly.

Qin Ran gave a wry smile; he was truly defeated by this girl's naivety and innocence.

"Sister, nobody has ever seen this before. Who can tell if it's real or fake? Even if you call over the Japanese Imperial Family, they might not be able to tell the difference unless you call over an expert in ancient artifacts."

"Sigh, I was planning to take a picture and give it to you," Qiao Ling'er pouted.

"No need, I'm certain it's a fake. I don't want you to send me a fake," Qin Ran said expressionlessly.

"Then when the auction starts, take a look and see if there's anything you like, and I'll bid on it and give it to you."

"We'll see. It's still early. I'll go to the restroom first."

After saying that, Qin Ran headed towards the restroom.

After he finished using the toilet, he came out and washed his hands.

I happened to see Tian Lina touching up her makeup in front of the mirror.

Qin Ran smiled as he saw her graceful figure.

I have to say, this young woman is truly exceptional.

Every time I see her, I get all sorts of fantasies.

Tian Lina looked at Qin Ran behind her in the mirror: "I didn't realize you were a Grandmaster's master?"

"Your understanding of me is still very limited; we need to have more in-depth exchanges." Qin Ran walked to Tian Lina's side and turned on the tap.

"My daughter is still in the bathroom, watch your words," Tian Lina whispered.

"I didn't say anything. I just said we need to have more in-depth communication. You've got the wrong idea. I helped you just now, how are you going to thank me?"

I don't want to talk to you.

Tian Lina was afraid that Qiu Miaohan would become suspicious if she saw her and Qin Ran whispering to each other, so she prepared to leave.

Seeing that she wanted to leave, Qin Ran grabbed her waist and pulled her in front of him.

The two were standing very close.

Tian Lina tried to struggle, but she couldn't break free from Qin Ran's large hand at all.

"Are you crazy! Let go of me! I told you, my daughter is still in the bathroom. If she comes out and sees this, she's doomed."

"So what if she sees it? I might as well drag her along," Qin Ran said with a mischievous grin.

"Qin Ran, you bastard, let me go!" Tian Lina was still struggling to break free.

At the same time, a figure walked over.

The visitor was none other than Shao Wenzhong.

Seeing this, he was immediately filled with rage.

"Damn it! I was wondering why you stood up for Tian Lina, turns out you two are having an affair."

Seeing this, Qin Ran also released Tian Lina.

At this moment, Tian Lina turned pale.

That jerk Qin Ran, he really ruined her life.

"Shao Wenzhong, don't talk nonsense, things aren't what you think," Tian Lina tried to explain.

"Stop making excuses. You two are hugging each other, and you still won't admit it. So you like pretty boys, huh?"

Qin Ran chimed in, "Women her age don't like young women, do you think they'd like an old geezer like you? You're already suffering from erectile dysfunction at your age, and you still expect women to like you? That's just wishful thinking."

"You..." Shao Wenzhong shouted angrily, "Kid, don't think I'm afraid of you just because someone is backing you up. I'll let you go on the ship tonight, but once we get off, if I don't kill you, I'll take your surname."

Listening to the two arguing, Tian Lina felt extremely overwhelmed.

She simply walked away.

Qiu Miaohan, who was in the bathroom, must have heard their conversation.

This is terrible.

Qin Ran crossed his arms and looked at Shao Wenzhong across from him: "Then I'll wait for you to come and kill me."

Shao Wenzhong didn't reply and went straight into the bathroom.

Qin Ran chuckled.

He styled his hair in front of the mirror.

After he finished, he prepared to leave.

At this moment, Qiu Miaohan came out.

Her face looked terrible.

She heard the argument outside.

If nothing unexpected happens, Qin Ran and Tian Lina did something indescribable outside just now.

Qiu Miaohan had long suspected that the relationship between Qin Ran and Tian Lina was not so simple.

It appears to be true.

Qiu Miaohan looked at Qin Ran: "Where...where's my mom?"

"Your mother just left a little while ago; she must have gone to the venue."

Qiu Miaohan gave Qin Ran a very complicated look, and then left.

Qin Ran was about to leave when she suddenly heard Shao Wenzhong's voice coming from the bathroom.

"Tonight I must get the Ame-no-Murakumo Sword, no matter the price. Anyone who dares to bid against me will be crushed."
