648 Whereabouts Exposed
“Little girl, are you alright?”
Lin Mo was still immersed in his joy when he suddenly felt the girl beside him collapse.
She seemed to be exhausted as she leaned against Lin Mo’s shoulder.
Looking at her pale face and lips, Lin Mo quickly carried her up, his heart aching.
“Don’t scare me. Why does this consume so much of your energy…?”
Lin Mo’s heart was beating wildly. Little Qilin had absolute trust in him. If anything happened to her because of his greed...
He would never be at ease in his life...
“It’s working. You’ll definitely get a supreme treasure…” Qilin said weakly. Her voice was weak, and her body was trembling.
“Open your mouth and eat this.”
Lin Mo reached out with a trembling hand and plucked a Silver Phoenix Fruit from the system space. He fed it to Qilin.
“It smells so good...”
Qilin sniffed the fruit with her small nose and felt a little more invigorated. She opened her mouth and ate the Silver Phoenix Fruit.
In an instant, her entire body shone brightly with divine light. Her original weakness was no longer there, and she was full of life.
“Divine fruit—she ate a divine fruit…”
Some people were shocked by this sudden change.
Countless greedy people looked at Lin Mo and Qilin, and some of them frowned.
They were very powerful. When Lin Mo took out the Silver Phoenix Fruit, they felt its medicinal power.
Nonetheless, before they could spy on it, the little girl ate it.
“Hehe, I’m sorry. My younger sister rushed her cultivation and almost went berserk. I’ve disturbed everyone.”
Lin Mo stood up and cupped his hands to the people around him.
He had a smile on his face, and the rest of the people smiled back, but there was a bit of coldness in their smiles.
“A half-step to the peak of the Almighty realm. You can already break through the Almighty realm. It seems like the two of you are planning to enter the ancient battlefield.”
There were many high-level Rulers present who could tell that Lin Mo and Qilin were hiding their strengths.
“Of course, we don’t want to miss out on such a place. We just don’t know if we’ll be lucky…”
Lin Mo replied with a smile, but his heart had sunk to the bottom.
He was too worried about Qilin and exposed the divine medicine. He knew that these guys would definitely target him.
“I’m sorry...”
A weak voice was heard. Qilin was sitting on a chair with an apologetic look.
She also knew that she had exposed the divine fruit. Although her identity had not been exposed, her strength had been seen through.
In Demon State, where people were ruthless and cruel, holding a treasure that was not on the same level as one’s strength was no different from being sentenced to death.
“You can blame me for being greedy. Perhaps this is the settling of accounts you were talking about...”
Lin Mo shook his head. At the same time, he remembered that Qilin had said that if the ability was used too many times, they would have to pay the price.
Perhaps this was the price they had to pay for using it.
“It’s fine if we’re exposed. You don’t have any side effects, do you?” Lin Mo asked with concern.
“Give me one more divine fruit, and I’ll be completely recovered.” Qilin licked her lips, her face filled with desire.
She just felt that her body had been cleansed, and she felt very comfortable at the moment.
“I’ll give it to you after the auction.”
Seeing that Qilin was fine, Lin Mo was finally at ease.
It was good that there were no aftereffects, or he would die of guilt...
[Congratulations for successfully auctioning an earth-grade tier 9 Golden Spirit Peach Tree.]
[Successfully triggered a 70,000-time auction rebate.]
[Congratulations on obtaining a heaven-grade tier 6 divine fruit, the Holy Light Peach Tree.]
The system’s voice sounded in Lin Mo’s mind again, triggering a 70,000-fold auction rebate. He obtained another divine tree.
“My luck is still here?”
Lin Mo’s heart skipped a beat. He hurriedly looked at Qilin, only to find that she was completely fine. She then looked around curiously.
[The fruit of the Holy Light Peace Tree can revive the dead and grow flesh from bones. Even if a quasi-Saint is seriously injured and dying, just one fruit will be enough to revive him.]
[Each person can only eat the Holy Light Peach once in their life. The second time will be ineffective, and the medicinal properties won’t be absorbed.]
Looking at the system’s introduction, Lin Mo was very excited. This was a divine fruit that could revive a quasi-Saint.
“Little girl, how long will your ability to change my fate last?”
Lin Mo asked via voice transmission. At the same time, he wanted to know if Qilin would be exhausted during this time.
“About two hours. So, if we escape during this time, we’ll likely succeed.]
Qilin said, telling Lin Mo not to participate in the subsequent auctions.
Once all their elixirs were sold, they could just take the spirit stones and run away. Maybe they would have a chance to escape.
“Don’t worry, I’ll be fine if I eat one more of the divine fruits you just gave me.” Qilin patted her chest and promised.
In fact, that was exactly what Lin Mo was thinking. He did not even want the spirit stones at the auction anymore.
Running away now might give them a higher chance of success.
[Congratulations for successfully auctioning the earth-grade tier 9 elixir, the Marrow-cleansing Demon Flower.]
[Successfully triggered a 30,000-time auction rebate.]
[Congratulations on obtaining a heaven-grade tier 4 Earth Spirit Holy flower.]
Lin Mo’s luck was as good as ever. He managed to auction off another elixir, and the rebate he received was heaven-defying.
[Congratulations for successfully auctioning...]
Perhaps it was because he had used up most of his good luck in the first three times, the rebates he received after were only 10,000 to 20,000 times. They were still high, but they were much weaker than before.
“This is simply a huge profit...”
Lin Mo smiled in satisfaction. The nine elixirs had been successfully auctioned off. He received two heaven-defying divine trees and a divine fruit that could help one break through to the quasi-Saint realm.
In addition, there were four heaven-grade tier 4 divine herbs and two heaven-grade tier 5 ones, all of which had very powerful medicinal properties.
“Let’s go. The auction house will definitely sell you divine medicines.”
Qilin urged. She also knew that someone would attack them, so she did not want to stay here for long.
The people at the auction were very enthusiastic as they welcomed Lin Mo and Qilin.
The spirit stones for the auction arrived very quickly, and Lin Mo’s requests were granted. This was also due to good luck...
“I won’t disturb you further. Goodbye.”
Lin Mo stood up and prepared to leave. At the same time, he felt a slight headache.
This was because many people had locked onto them in the dark and were following them in secret. Those people clearly wanted to make a move.
“A bunch of rats… Get out of my way.”
Suddenly, a loud roar was heard, and a terrifying pressure was released. Everyone except Lin Mo and Qilin knelt down.
In the face of absolute power, any resistance seemed so weak and powerless.
“A quasi-Saint...”
Lin Mo’s heart was in his throat, and his expression was ugly.
Was the quasi-Saint about to make a move? How could he and Qilin escape when they were faced with such terrifying strength?
“Mayor, please spare us...”
Screams were heard as the people on their knees kowtowed one after another. They were all scared out of their wits.
“Little friend, please come with me.”
After shouting at everyone to leave, a middle-aged brawny man appeared. He walked up to Lin Mo and smiled.
However, his fierce expression, coupled with his smile, was indeed a little creepy.
“Mayor, we don’t have any more treasures on us. Please show us mercy…” Lin Mo said with difficulty.
A wisp of cold sweat trickled down his forehead as he did some mental calculations.
Even if they used all their means, he and Qilin would not be able to face a single move from the other party. The absolute difference in their strengths made him feel despair...
“You gave her a Silver Phoenix Fruit, and it was just picked. You have the Silver Phoenix Fruit Tree,” the middle-aged man said slowly.
His words made Lin Mo’s heart sink to the bottom...
