I Inherit An Auction House At The Start, Trillion Times Rebate!

Chapter 56 Take Miao Qing In and Leave the Auction House

Miao Qing slowly opened his eyes and heard Wu Jin’s pleasantly surprised voice. “Master, he’s awake.”

The wounds on his body had been treated. Looking at Lin Mo who was walking toward him, Miao Qing got off the bed and knelt on the ground. “Thank you for saving my life, Mr. Lin.”

Lin Mo sized him up. Although Miao Qing was heavily injured and his breathing was weak, from his looks, his cultivation was not low. He could not help but feel a little curious.

“Why did the Miao clan come after you? And they even said that you’re a traitor.”

Miao Qing sighed and explained clearly the grudge between him, Miao Yan, and Miao Jian.

It turned out that the so-called betrayal was because he was dissatisfied with Miao Jian’s cruel methods, so he spoke out to advise him. As a result, he was disliked by Miao Jian. In addition to his previous conflict with Miao Yan, he was trying to sow discord and frame Miao Qing. As a result, Qiao Qing was framed as a sinner who had offended his superior and spoke out against the clan leader. After that, he was displeased with the image of a sinner who had stolen the clan leader’s treasure and betrayed the clan.

When Wu Jin heard this, he said angrily, “This father and son pair are terrible. They can be so sinister and vicious to their own clan members.”

Miao Qing revealed a bitter smile. “You guys don’t know. Although my strength isn’t bad, I come from a branch lineage. Moreover, I have long been lonely and have no way of getting in touch with the core position of the Miao clan.”

Although strength was important, in the Miao clan, in order to fully control the power and prevent others from splitting the power, Miao Jian would only use the direct line of descent that was related to him. Those branch clans rarely had a day to shine.

This resulted in a powerful person like Miao Qing having to put in a lot of effort to slowly climb up the ranks. After he offended Miao Yan, his days naturally would not be much better. It was not easy for him to climb up, but in the end, he was ostracized again. Miao Qing seemed to have thought of something. “Oh right, before I was being hunted down, I heard that Miao Jian and the others were discussing how to deal with you. I heard that they’ve already joined forces with the Lin clan. I believe that there will be some movement soon.”

To repay Lin Mo for saving his life, Miao Qing told him an extremely useful piece of news.

Wu Jin was indignant when he heard this. “I never thought that the Lin clan would not change their ways. Now, they even want to join forces with the Miao clan to deal with you, Master.”

He remembered that Lin Mo was also from the Lin clan, hence the words he spoke sounded a little rude. He quickly looked at Lin Mo, but he did not reveal any expression. Lin Mo had already expected this, so he was not surprised. “Thanks for the reminder. What should you do next? The Miao clan didn’t succeed in hunting you down this time, and they even lost a few of their men. I think they won’t let you off.”

Miao Qing sighed. “From now on, I can only roam the world as my home.”

In any case, he did not have a strong sense of belonging to the Miao clan. He did not feel too sad being chased out of the clan and hunted down.

Seeing how free and easy Miao Qing was, even though he was a member of the Miao clan, he abhorred evil and was completely different from Miao Yan and Miao Jian. Lin Mo had an idea. “If you don’t have anywhere to go, why don’t you stay here?”

Miao Qing was a little surprised when he heard this. Although he was grateful to Lin Mo, he was still a little hesitant. “If that’s the case, the Miao clan will definitely not let you off. Won’t I be a burden to you?”

Lin Mo smiled. “Even if you don’t stay, the Miao clan won’t let me off either. Anyway, we’ve already formed a grudge, so it doesn’t matter if there’s another one.”

That was also true. Moreover, Lin Mo had saved him, so Miao Qing would always repay his kindness. It just so happened that Miao Qing could stay and serve him.

“You should recuperate well. I’m afraid there’s still a tough battle ahead.”

Lin Mo gave Miao Qing some medicinal pills and instructed him to recuperate in peace. Then, he left with Wu Jin.

“Congratulations, Master, for accepting another great general.” After that, the two of them went to the storeroom. Wu Jin handed the account book over to Lin Mo for review. “These are the auction items that I’ve collected over the past few days.”

Lin Mo took a rough look and was quite satisfied. It seemed that Wu Jin’s work was quite effective.

However, the highlight of this auction was the “Broken Cloud Sword Manual” that he had obtained from the Huang clan. The other auction items were mainly medicinal pills.

“Sigh, the increase in strength is still a little slow.”

After all, Lin Mo had already taken a few huge steps in a short period. In the entire continent, even the proud sons of heaven and large sects could not compare to him.

Wu Jin really did not dare to agree with him. He could not help but underestimate him and said, “If Master’s strength increases slowly, then there’s no such thing as fast in this world.”

Lin Mo shook his head and said, “You don’t understand.”

For others, due to the God Devouring Body, they could absorb high-level medicinal pill or inner core slowly over a longer period. However, for Lin Mo, it could be completed in a few breaths.

This was both a benefit and a disadvantage. The benefit was that he could absorb all of the essences within a short period, while the disadvantage was that there was a supply shortage.

Hence, the fifth-level top grade medicinal pill was of little help to Lin Mo. If he wanted to quickly raise his strength, he could only think of ways to absorb large amounts of it.

“Due to the successful publicity of the auction, it had attracted many people over. It’s even possible that the heads of various clans will be present at the next auction.”

Those who were on good terms with Lin Mo like the Huang clan and Du clan naturally did not have to worry. However, if they were from the Miao clan, it would be disadvantageous to Lin Mo.

“Master, you have to be careful.”

Lin Mo knew what to do in the face of Wu Jin’s warning. However, he believed that the next auction would be the last in Qingyang City.

“Make your preparations. After the auction is over, we’ll leave this place.”

After all, staying in Qingyang City would not give Lin Mo much room for improvement. It was better to plan ahead.

Wu Jin was a little surprised. However, with the example of Chuxin Village, Lin Mo would not stay in one place for too long.
