Abandoned Youth

"No, no, no, this is all a misunderstanding... I thought the fruit on the tree was some kind of herb, so I decided to take it down and take a look..."    

    

Lin Han immediately pretended to be innocent, otherwise even the veined mask would not forgive him.    

    

The blue-haired young man waved at Lin Han. The tree branch floated out of Lin Han's clothes and landed steadily in the young man's hand.    

    

He played with it for a while and seemed to be a little dissatisfied. "Your combat strength is too weak. Such a good tree branch weapon is useless by your side."    

    

"I killed an Emperor Realm master. Isn't that enough?"    

    

"It's far from enough. The tree branch can absorb the blood and energy of the enemy during a battle. In the end, it will gather in the Tree of God in the underground city to breed fruits."    

    

"These fruits are the Shennong people. They will be ripe and the city will be lively again."    

    

The blue-haired youth's explanation made Lin Han speechless. He did not know what kind of magical race this was.    

    

In fact, the people bred by this divine tree belonged to the Shennong tribe's warriors. They would appear to protect the civilization during the war-torn era.    

    

A large number of deaths would cause countless amounts of blood to irrigate the divine tree and promote the growth of the fruit. This would not happen in a peaceful era.    

    

Lin Han once again raised his head and carefully examined the fruit on the divine tree. He could really feel a weak life force fluctuation from the surface of the fruit.    

    

"Is this what you want me to do?"    

    

"Hehehe, there's no need to think about it so complicated. Isn't the invasion of the outside world just around the corner? You don't want to sit and wait to be slaughtered, do you? "    

    

The blue-haired youth was quite familiar with the current situation. He also had a secret connection with the veined mask.    

    

If it wasn't for the fact that Lin Han had been fighting slowly and slowly, he wouldn't have needed to show himself.    

    

After introducing himself, Lin Han knew that the guy in front of him was called Lan Yu. He could be considered as a patrolling guard in the underground city.    

    

Regardless of whether Lin Han was willing or not, Lan Yu decided to follow him and set off. He wanted to see how difficult it was to deal with the enemies.    

    

The medicinal herbs were almost harvested. The living plants could let the buyers go back and nurture them themselves. The value of raising them would be immeasurable.    

    

In the blink of an eye, it was the day of Auction. Lin Han and the others came to the Baolige Hotel in suits and shoes. The decorations were also complete.    

    

Lan Yu was curious about everything around him. He had no idea how many years he had spent in the underground city.    

    

The secretary took a stack of documents and walked into the lounge. "Boss Lin, this is the information of all the people who participated in the Auction. We have checked and found no suspicious people."    

    

Lin Han nodded and did not take it to heart.    

    

With the strength of a large family in the supernatural world, if they wanted to hide, how could they be easily discovered?    

    

It was fine if someone was causing trouble. Lin Han just wanted to see how strong Lan Yu was.    

    

"Don't be so nervous. What should come will come. You can't hide even if you want to!"    

    

Lin Han tidied the wrinkles on his clothes and walked to the front desk with the microphone in his hand. He was going to be the host of the Auction today.    

    

Most of the people in the hall were familiar faces. Lin Han nodded at the elders of the Alchemist Association. They could still take the lead if something unexpected happened.    

    

"The new herb that everyone is very concerned about is ready. This is not a herb. After it is cultivated, it will grow and grow in your gardens..."    

    

A few staff members answered and walked out. They held flower pots covered with bulletproof glass in their hands. The fresh herbs were green and glistening.    

    

Many of the people who participated in the Auction were experts with high cultivation levels. Naturally, they could feel the medicinal effects of the flower pots.    

    

This could not be measured by the price of ordinary herbs. They had to find a way to cultivate them.    

    

"There's no starting price. Let's start the auction according to the order of the herbs' visit."    

    

As soon as Lin Han finished speaking, the people below who were raising the plates went crazy.    

    

Everyone raised the price by tens of millions, making people feel that money was just numbers.    

    

"Fifty million!"    

    

"Seventy million!"    

    

" One hundred forty million! "    

    

Lin Han was glad that he did not pick too many herbs. Only rare things could achieve such explosive effects.    

    

On the brightly lit streets, a few men in black were quietly approaching the rear wall of the hotel. They could see the inside through the window.    

    

Xu Chao and Tenning Di obviously would not miss this great opportunity. Not only did they want to get rid of Lin Han, they also wanted to bring the new herbs back to the Transcendental World for research.    

    

"From the looks of it, the herb that Lin Han is auctioning is nothing special. It's just that it's a little fresh. Could he be using gimmicks to trick the other bosses?"    

    

"There's no need for that at all. The profits of Green Spirit Hall are also very large now. Money is no longer meaningful to Lin Han."    

    

"Then we should think of a way to kill our way in and snatch those things."    

    

The Peace Ning Di saw some powerful figures in the crowd. Recently, the Alchemist Association had been in the limelight, which had increased the reputation of those elders.    

    

The other party's strength was naturally not weak, and the number of people who carried out the mission this time around was not enough.    

    

However, the Transcendental World's Lin Family had also prepared a very sharp helper for them. It was the demon beasts they subdued in the vicious wilderness.    

    

It was even more ferocious than the tigers, lions, and elephants in an ordinary zoo. Its size also increased explosively by hundreds and thousands of times.    

    

Seeing that it was about time, the Tenindy took out a crystal ball the size of a fist from his pocket. Inside was a colorful pattern of an octopus.    

    

"Let these puny humans feel how terrifying demon beasts are. Without the relevant battle experience, they will definitely be defeated in the shortest time possible."    

    

With that, Tenindy threw the crystal ball and the window of the hotel.    

    

The process of the Auction's accumulation was very fast. Because of the large number of products, no big boss had to struggle with a kind of medicinal herb.    

    

The number of flower pots on the table was getting lesser and lesser, and Green Spirit Hall's bank account was pouring in large amounts of money.    

    

Lin Han was a little absent-minded. He felt that the enemy's attack should have appeared. Should he wait for the Auction to end and all the people and good things to leave?    

    

"Crack, crack..."    

    

The sound of glass shattering was very clear, instantly disrupting the rhythm of the crowd.    

    

The crystal ball also turned into slag when it fell to the ground, but a thick cloud of gray smoke rose from within.    

    

Immediately after, countless tentacles extended outwards, and began to smash towards the audience seats.
