Chapter 407: Two-Faced Person

Asset verification had never once been conducted during the three-day auction at the Treasure Pavilion.

Under normal circumstances, no one would dare to cause trouble on such an important day for the Treasure Pavilion.

If someone were to successfully bid on an item here, but then lacked the Spirit Stones to pay the bill…

The Treasure Pavilion's forces were not to be trifled with; unless this person had a massive background, how could they leave alive?

Pavilion Master Yan Tong frowned, as did the several pavilion masters beside him.

Whether Xiao Fan had the Spirit Stones…

They knew better than anyone, having just given the other party nearly ten million…

However, he naturally could not speak of such matters publicly…

Pavilion Master Yan Tong looked at Xiao Fan, his voice calm: "Young man, Elder Mo of the Ziyun Cave Heaven has requested an asset verification. Do you have any objections?"

Everyone in the venue turned their gazes toward Xiao Fan, all wondering if this young man could produce twenty million Spirit Stones…

Nangong Lingxuan, beside Xiao Fan, was already dumbfounded…

Matters had progressed too quickly; in reality, only a few breaths had passed, and she simply hadn't had time to react.

"This Junior dares not object and will obey your instructions, Senior." Xiao Fan bowed, appearing extremely respectful…

"Very good."

Pavilion Master Yan Tong nodded slightly, very satisfied with Xiao Fan's attitude.

"Nangong, ask your father to give me the twelve million Spirit Stones." Xiao Fan looked at Nangong Lingxuan and said with a smile.

His voice was calm, as if these were all just trivial matters…

"Oh… oh!!" Nangong Lingxuan was stunned at first, then loudly agreed.

With the situation being urgent, she didn't even have time to use a communication jade slip; she stood up directly and called out to her father…

"Father, the Spirit Stones, give me the Spirit Stones!!"

Nangong Lingxuans Father was stunned…

Nangong Lingxuan hadn't yet told her father that Xiao Fan said he would bid for her…

Nangong Lingxuans Father's mind was in chaos, completely unable to figure out what was happening.

However, since his daughter had called out like that, he didn't have time to ask more questions and flashed over to Nangong Lingxuan's side in the blink of an eye.

"What is going on?"

"Father, don't worry about that for now; give me the twelve million Spirit Stones you used for bidding earlier." Nangong Lingxuan said hurriedly.

Her father's expression changed repeatedly, but he decided to give the Spirit Stones to Nangong Lingxuan first.

Nangong Lingxuan took the Storage Pouch and handed it directly to Xiao Fan beside her.

"Here!"

Xiao Fan took the Storage Pouch, nodded slightly with a smile, and stood up to head toward the asset verification…

Nangong Lingxuans Father was instantly dumbfounded.

He had really given his entire fortune to this brat?!

He had naturally seen Xiao Fan bid earlier very clearly.

He had been very puzzled at the time, wondering where this Tongtian Realm brat could get over ten million Spirit Stones.

As a result, when the price reached twenty million, he was dumbfounded and hadn't reacted at all.

It turned out that his daughter calling him over was to ask for Spirit Stones, and these Spirit Stones were for this brat…

"Lingxuan…"

Nangong Lingxuans Father spoke hurriedly.

"Father, Xiao Fan said he wants to bid on this five elements sword pill and give it to me." Nangong Lingxuan spoke directly, interrupting what her father was about to say.

She was afraid her father might say the wrong thing in his haste and make the situation awkward.

"???"

Nangong Lingxuans Father's mind was full of question marks at this moment, completely unable to figure out what was going on.

Meanwhile, Xiao Fan had already walked to the asset verification area…

He first checked the Storage Pouch Nangong Lingxuan had just given him, confirmed it contained twelve million Spirit Stones, then took out eight million Spirit Stones from his own Storage Pouch, and handed them all to the Treasure Pavilion Elder in charge of verification.

This Elder took the two Storage Pouches, scanned them with his Divine Sense for a moment, and announced loudly:

"Asset verification complete, no issues."

His voice was resonant, allowing everyone in the venue to hear clearly.

"How could this be…" Mo Xiaoyao's face turned black; he hadn't expected that the other party actually had twenty million.

He naturally knew that the Nangong Family had taken out a Storage Pouch and given it to Xiao Fan.

But what could that represent?

The Nangong Family would have at most given over ten million Spirit Stones as they did when bidding, so weren't the remaining Spirit Stones Xiao Fan's own?

"The auction continues." Pavilion Master Yan Tong spoke, looking at Mo Xiaoyao, and said with a light smile: "Elder Mo, do you still wish to bid?"

Mo Xiaoyao's face was livid; for a moment, he was stifled into silence, not knowing what to say.

Xiao Fan didn't rush back to his seat; he looked at Mo Xiaoyao and said: "What? Are you not planning to bid anymore? I thought the Elder of the Ziyun Cave Heaven was very wealthy, but it turns out…"

Xiao Fan shrugged, showing no respectful attitude at all, his face full of disdain.

This time, he took the initiative to speak, provoking Mo Xiaoyao.

In the magnificent hall, there was pin-drop silence, and everyone turned their gazes toward Xiao Fan…

Was he crazy?

To dare to provoke Mo Xiaoyao so blatantly?

Even Pavilion Master Yan Tong was taken aback, not expecting Xiao Fan to be so bold.

"You little beast, are you looking for death?!"

Mo Xiaoyao shouted, his body trembling with anger.

"What? Are you saying the truth cannot be spoken?!" Xiao Fan sneered.

"You!!" Mo Xiaoyao wanted to make a move, but the three of Warrior Feng surged with Killing Intent, pressing toward him.

Xiao Fan sneered and looked at Pavilion Master Yan Tong: "Senior, can the auction continue?"

This respectful attitude of his was like a completely different person from before.
