Chapter 189: Chapter 189: You Should Be the One to Leave
The No. 1 private room was quite luxurious.
Everywhere exuded a sense of privilege and wealth.
Even the decorations on the walls were worth ten thousand crystal stones.
The teacups on the table were also top-notch spirit wood carvings. Each one was worth a thousand crystal stones.
Even the most ordinary chairs were worth several thousand crystal stones.
Present were all top disciples from various peaks, people who had seen the world.
But they were still shocked by the opulence before their eyes.
Ji Ruyue’s beautiful eyes sparkled with light. “As expected of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion’s auction house!”
“The decoration of the No. 1 private room must cost at least tens of thousands of crystal stones!”
The other disciples also sighed in admiration.
“This is even better than our sect leader’s bedroom.”
“Who would spend so much effort and expense on decorations?”
“Apart from the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, no one else.”

At this moment,
Ji Ruyue spotted a long jade-carved chair placed at the center.
With dragons carved and phoenixes painted, it exuded grandeur above all.
Most importantly, it was crafted from ice jade, rare in the Nine-Sect Land, with even a fist-sized piece worth thousands of crystals.
The cost of such an entire chair was unimaginable.
“Junior Brother Ling, can I sit on this chair?”
Ji Ruyue touched the armrest, eyes filled with longing.
But this action was sternly stopped by Ling Guihai. “Take your hand off!”
“Do you want to die? This is a seat for that great figure, how can you and I sit here casually?”
Ji Ruyue was startled and quickly withdrew her hand, repeatedly apologizing. “I’m sorry, I lost myself for a moment.”
Ling Guihai felt irritated inside.
Bringing these burdens here not only diluted his own opportunities but also brought him trouble.
If that elder happened to come in,
what would he feel seeing a group of nobodies sitting in his place?
He sternly scanned everyone, saying, “All of you better be careful!”
“If we anger that elder, neither of us will have a good outcome!”
A group of elite disciples who were touching here and looking there immediately stood properly.
Liu Qingxian also found the decorations here quite novel.
She carefully examined her surroundings.
Suddenly, she noticed a palm-sized jade lion on the table and curiously said, “What is this?”
She reached out to pick it up.
Ling Guihai was annoyed, suppressing his anger. “Junior Sister Liu, don’t touch things here casually.”
“If you break it, it will be a problem.”
Liu Qingxian stuck out her tongue in embarrassment and retracted her hand.
She was enjoying the privilege of being here, so she had to adhere to the rules.
Unexpectedly,
Jiang Fan suddenly picked up the jade lion, examining it upside down and said, “It looks like it’s used for bidding, right?”
“Infuse a bit of spiritual power, and the auction stage below will know the bid from this private room.”
He then casually tossed it to Liu Qingxian. “Play with it if you want. It’s not worth much. If you break it, let Chief Wen replace it.”
Liu Qingxian hurriedly caught it, scolding. “Be careful! You almost broke it!”
This casual behavior startled the elite disciples.
“This guy! Does he think he’s the owner of this private room?”
“He even said to let Chief Wen replace it!”
“If we really break it, Chief Wen would throw us all out!”
Ji Ruyue was also angry. “Junior Brother Ling, look at him! He’s deliberately causing trouble!”
Ling Guihai was angrier than anyone.
He originally didn’t want to bring Jiang Fan in, but he did so reluctantly for Liu Qingxian’s sake.
But look at him!
He showed no gratitude at all.
Instead, he acted like he was the host here, completely ignoring Ling Guihai’s advice and making trouble.
“Jiang Fan, this is the last time I’m warning you, don’t touch anything carelessly!”
“If you break something, it will be a big problem for me, even more so for you!”
Jiang Fan curled his lips, feeling speechless.
“Since I let you in, there’s no issue.”
“You don’t need to be so restrained, as long as you’re not noisy, feel free.”
With that,
he plopped down on the jade-carved long chair.
The cool comfort immediately spread through his body, and strands of spiritual power continuously flowed into him.
It made his body extremely comfortable.
“Not bad, the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion’s auction house indeed has something to offer.”
Jiang Fan secretly praised it.
At least in terms of the private room experience, they spared no effort.
Such effort could attract many strong individuals to come.
And after enjoying such a luxurious setting, who would hold back from bidding?
However, this action made Ling Guihai unable to bear it anymore.
“Jiang Fan!”
Ling Guihai shouted angrily, his face showing obvious rage. “What exactly are you trying to do?”
“Get off it right now!”
He was furious!
That elder could come in at any time.
If he found someone else sitting in his jade-carved chair, would he be happy?
By then, he’d throw them all out in anger!
Jiang Fan frowned, saying, “This private room was prepared for me.”
“What I do is my freedom!”
“But you, you’re really noisy!”
“If you keep shouting, get out!”
Seeing everyone in high spirits, Jiang Fan allowed them in for a look.
But Ling Guihai’s constant nagging was really annoying.
Ji Ruyue was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter. “Did you hear that?”
“He said this private room was prepared for him!”
“Oh my god, am I hallucinating?”
The elite disciples also twitched their mouths.
They whispered among themselves.
“Is this guy crazy?”
“Several great elders from other sects are here, yet they don’t qualify for the No. 1 private room.”
“Even if he were Xia Chaoge’s martial uncle, he’d never qualify to sit here!”
Liu Qingxian was also bewildered by Jiang Fan’s words.
She whispered, “Jiang Fan, why are you talking nonsense?”
“You’ll offend people this way.”
If word got out that the Green Cloud Sect’s disciple Jiang Fan occupied the No. 1 private room under false pretenses,
it wouldn’t just anger the elder who was supposed to arrive;
the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion auction house would blacklist Jiang Fan for life!
Ling Guihai slammed the table in anger, unable to tolerate it any longer, and roared, “Ignorant fool!”
“I brought you in as a favor!”
“Do you dare to take advantage of me?”
“Get out! Get out right now!”
“You’re not welcome here!”
Jiang Fan’s face turned cold.
Sitting on the jade-carved long chair, he showed no intention of getting up, instead coldly saying,
“The ones who should leave are you!”
“All of you are too noisy!”
“Get out of here!”
Kindness was seen as a liver of a donkey!
A group of ungrateful wretches!
Liu Qingxian was startled.
She almost didn’t recognize Jiang Fan anymore.
Wasn’t he usually humble?
How could he be so unreasonable and inconsiderate?
Occupying the elder’s seat and wanting to kick others out?
Should the elder or the auction house staff see this, he’d be in deep trouble.
Squeak—
Fear became reality!
Just as the atmosphere was taut,
the door to the private room opened.
Chen Luoyue walked in, holding a jade box filled with spiritual tea, her face beaming with a smile.
Seeing so many people at once, she was stunned.
“So many people?”
