Back on Earth, I am the only cultivator.

"The chairman? The head of the Ye family?"

Upon seeing the two men, Lei Zhen felt as if he had seen saviors and hurriedly shouted:

"Guild Master, this kid has committed murder and caused trouble in our Wanmeng Chamber of Commerce!"

"Snapped!"

As soon as Qian Baifu ran up to him, without saying a word, he raised his hand and delivered a loud slap to Lei Zhen's face!

The master's slap sent Lei Zhen spinning three times in the air before he crashed heavily to the ground, spitting out several broken teeth.

"You bastard! Shut your dog mouth!"

Qian Baifu, panting heavily, pointed at Lei Zhen's nose and began to curse.

"Who gave you the audacity to be so rude to your senior?!"

"You're tired of living! Don't drag the entire chamber of commerce down with you!"

At this moment, Qian Baifu was in a complete panic.

Who else but that Supreme Realm senior could turn a Earth-level martial artist into bloody pulp without even moving a muscle?!

He couldn't help but curse the Ye family of Jiangnan in his heart.

"Damn the Ye family! They said there's a supreme expert living in seclusion in the city!"

"They intend to use ancient relics as bait to lure this supreme expert, so they can ascertain his background and attitude!"

"Now look what's happened! The auction for the ancient artifacts hasn't even started yet, and my security chief has already gone and provoked them!"

"Survival is the priority! To hell with the Ye family, I don't care anymore!"

Thinking of this, Qian Baifu did not hesitate at all, under the shocked gazes of more than ten aristocratic families,

He bent his knees towards Wu Fan, as if to kneel down directly.

The smile on that fat face was extremely obsequious:

"This junior, Qian Baifu, of the Wanmeng Chamber of Commerce's Mencheng branch, has failed to properly discipline his subordinates and has offended you, senior! Please forgive me!"

Lei Zhen covered his swollen face, completely stunned by the beating, and stared blankly at Qian Baifu.

The president is a genuine grandmaster-level expert!

Even in the provincial capital of Jiangnan, he was a man who could walk with impunity. How could he be so terrified of a mere boy who was not even twenty years old?

Wu Fan gently flicked his right hand, and an invisible force supported Qian Baifu's knees as he coldly stared at him:

"I'm here tonight to attend the auction."

"Is this how your Wanmeng Chamber of Commerce treats its guests?"

Qian Baifu was overjoyed and bowed repeatedly, saying:

"I wouldn't dare! Absolutely not!"

"It is a blessing that our Chamber of Commerce has been blessed for eight lifetimes for you to come!"

"Whatever you fancy today, senior, just say the word. My Wanmeng Chamber of Commerce will gladly provide it all, without accepting a single penny from you!"

At this moment, Ye Cangwu, the head of the Ye family who had been standing at the back, also slowly stepped forward.

He gave Wu Fan a deep look and was certain that the ordinary-looking young man in front of him was the Supreme Realm senior he was looking for.

But he never expected that this senior would be so young.

"Ye Cangwu of the Ye family of Jiangnan greets you, senior."

Ye Cangwu clasped his hands in a gesture of humility, adopting an extremely humble attitude.

"This Lei Zhen truly deserves to die. He offended a senior, and he deserves to die."

Qian Baifu, who was standing to the side, twitched his eye upon hearing this, inwardly cursing Ye Cangwu, that old fox, for changing his face faster than flipping through a book.

Ye Cangwu ignored Qian Baifu and continued looking at Wu Fan, saying:

"However, those two 'ancient relics' tonight were auctioned by the Chamber of Commerce on behalf of my Ye family."

"If you are pleased, senior, I am willing to offer you the black jade pendant and stone ring as a token of goodwill. I hope you will accept them with pleasure."

Ye Cangwu's words caused the celebrities and dignitaries present to whisper among themselves.

"Did I hear that right? The head of the Ye family, the number one family in Jiangnan, actually calls that kid 'senior'? And he's even offering to give him treasures?"

"Just who is this young man? Is he some super-rich young master from the capital?"

"Idiot! Didn't you hear what Manager Lei just said? That's someone even grandmasters would kneel before; he must be a reclusive old monster who has regained his youth!"

......

In a corner of the hall, Lin Tianrong, the current head of the Lin family, stared blankly at this scene.

As a native of a prominent family in Mencheng, he was all too aware of the importance of Ye Cangwu and Qian Baifu.

But now, these two figures, who are like gods in the city gate,

In front of this young man named Wu Fan, they were as docile as two lapdogs.

Considering Wu Fan's terrifying ability to silently shatter four mid-stage Earth-level martial artists,

"It's that senior who underwent tribulation at Nine Dragons Mountain, a master of the Supreme Realm!"

"And the person accompanying him was none other than Li Tiancheng's second daughter from the Li family!"

Lin Tianrong took a deep breath, glad he had come to the right place.

Ignoring the auction that evening, they quietly retreated to the edge of the hall.

He needed to rush back to the Lin family immediately to tell his father, Lin Jingde, this shocking news in person.

At this moment, when Li Jing heard Ye Cangwu offer to give away the treasure, a sly glint flashed in her eyes.

"A fool wouldn't pass up a bargain."

She whispered in Wu Fan's ear:

"Senior Wu Fan, this old man from the Ye family seems quite shrewd."

"Since he's offering it, why don't we just accept it?"

"It'll save me the trouble of bidding against these vulgar people later."

As she spoke, her warm breath, carrying a faint, virginal fragrance, constantly brushed against Wu Fan's earlobe, sending waves of tingling, itchy sensation through him.

Wu Fan glanced helplessly at Li Jing beside him. This girl!

He withdrew his gaze, looked at Ye Cangwu and Qian Baifu before him, put his hands behind his back, and said calmly:

"My original intention was to bid for these two ancient relics. Since your Ye family insists on giving them away, then I will accept them."

"This also saves me the trouble of bidding at auctions, thus saving my time."

Upon hearing Wu Fan refer to himself as "this Emperor," both Ye Cangwu and Qian Baifu felt a tremor in their hearts, as if an invisible imperial aura was rushing towards them.

"Please wait a moment, senior. I will have someone fetch the treasure immediately!"

Ye Cangwu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and hurriedly turned to give a few instructions to his trusted confidants behind him.

Before long, two exquisite wooden boxes carved from sandalwood were respectfully presented by two maids.

With a wave of his sleeve, Wu Fan unleashed an invisible force that caused the lids of the two wooden boxes to fly off instantly, revealing two items lying quietly inside.

A broken black jade pendant that emits a faint, eerie light and is engraved with obscure runes.

And an old, rough gray stone ring.

Under the scan of his divine sense, Wu Fan could clearly feel that both items contained a spiritual energy fluctuation that was different from that of the mortal world.

"good."

Wu Fan nodded slightly in satisfaction, then waved his hand, and the two wooden boxes floated towards Li Jing.

"Keep it safe."

Li Jing caught it steadily and neatly put the wooden box away.

Wu Fan didn't delay any longer, turned around and strode away, leaving only a concise instruction:

"Let's go."

"Yes, senior!"

Li Jing, holding the wooden box, smiled brightly and quickly followed.
