Chapter 529: Kind-hearted and soft-hearted
Although he was panicking inside, he could not show any fear on the surface. His mind was working rapidly, thinking about how to escape safely.
However, all this presupposes that he must first obtain the hide. The legend of Axe is so fascinating, what if it is true?
"The vast ocean will be the best hiding place. After I get the hides, I'll find a secluded place to hide. They may not be able to find me."
The cultivator's eyes inadvertently swept over his followers, and a plan of escaping took shape in his mind, distracting the followers while he took the opportunity to escape.
With the last lot sold, this grand auction is coming to an end.
Sadier's face was full of smiles. This event not only broke the records of duration and total transaction volume, but also brought huge benefits to Antique Account.
After the auction, the person in charge took the stage to give a speech and mentioned that there would be boats heading to the gambling ship in the evening for those interested to play, and that for those who wanted to leave, an option of leaving overnight would be arranged to ensure the safety of buyers.
The crowd gradually dispersed, and Alika walked up to Lin Fan and asked why he was no longer participating in the auction.
"Did you see that the winner of the bid was sweating with nervousness?" Lin Fan replied.
"Are you scared? I think you should find it exciting." Alika teased.
"They will definitely not let him go easily. What do you think?"
"I'm also quite interested in the legend of Axe." Lin Fan took out a cigarette and handed it to Alex. The two smiled at each other, as if they had reached some kind of tacit understanding.
"Speaking of which, I've always been curious about how many powerful people are guarding the Antique? Why hasn't anyone tried to rob it directly?" Lin Fan asked while smoking.
"Some people have indeed thought about it, but no one has dared to put it into action in the past few years. Do you want to try it?" Alika responded with a smile.
"Oh? Did someone actually try it a few years ago?" Lin Fan raised his eyebrows, a hint of interest flashing in his eyes.
Lin Fan frowned, thinking about something, while Alica nodded in confirmation: "Yes, they died in a very tragic way."
"Since Antiques dares to get involved in this business, they must have their reasons."
Lin Fan muttered to himself, but he had no real intention of challenging the antique dealer. Most of the transactions had already concluded, and the goods had been distributed to the buyers.
"Is that guy leaving tonight? Or does he plan to stay until tomorrow's magical weapon fair?"
Alika looked at a practitioner and said.
"Let him be. Just keep an eye on him."
Lin Fan blew out a puff of smoke and added, "If he were to leave, it would definitely attract attention. There are so many eyes watching him."
Alika responded and left, arranging for someone to monitor.
Qin Ruxue shook her head and sighed, "Why did you take the animal skin with you when you knew it was so dangerous?"
"Who can resist the temptation of immortality?"
Lin Fan stubbed out the cigarette in his hand: "People die for money, birds die for food, let alone the chance of eternal life."
With that, the two of them headed for the deck to stretch their legs. Many guests were preparing to depart by speedboat, some heading to entertainment venues, others returning to land.
Lin Fan noticed that Li Weihai was not in a hurry to leave. The only bodyguard left behind him was carrying a large box containing rare treasures such as the dragon head.
"He doesn't seem to know about the upcoming magic weapon trade fair. By the way, where is his other bodyguard?" Qin Ruxue asked puzzledly.
"Well, I went on a date with the Dragon King."
Lin Fan explained with a chuckle. Qin Ruxue was stunned for a moment, then she understood. Her eyes widened as she asked, "Dead?"
"Yeah, he wanted to launch a sneak attack on me, but I kicked him off the boat. He was unlucky and sank to the bottom." Lin Fan nodded.
"Can't swim?" Qin Ruxue asked subconsciously.
"He didn't have a chance to swim. I punched him before I kicked him down, and he fainted."
Lin Fan replied with a hint of regret in his words: "I was thinking that if he was lucky enough to survive, I could let him go."
Qin Ruxue was speechless at Lin Fan's soft-heartedness. Such a person actually claimed to be showing mercy. In the distance, Li Weihai saw Lin Fan and felt a pang of anxiety, but he calmed down again when he thought of someone.
Li Weihai's bodyguard asked softly, "Boss, are we leaving now?"
"Leave? Why are you leaving?"
Li Weihai responded calmly: "Don't worry, the fun has just begun."
"Good show? What good show?" The bodyguard looked confused.
"I want to witness Lin Fan's end on the Antique with my own eyes."
As Li Weihai spoke, he pulled out his satellite phone, ready to contact the man who had promised to help him get rid of Lin Fan. However, a beep sounded on the other end of the line, signaling the phone was powered off.
Li Weihai frowned, muttering to himself, "What's going on? Didn't we agree to deal with Lin Fan?"
He called several times, but the result was the same—the other party's phone was still turned off. Realizing that he might have been tricked, Li Weihai immediately changed his mind.
"Hurry, prepare the speedboat, we're leaving now!" he ordered the bodyguard.
"Leaving now? But didn't you just say you wanted to watch a show?" the bodyguard asked in confusion.
"The situation has changed now, let's go!" Li Weihai's face was full of anxiety, and he had already cursed the missing person in his heart.
Lin Fan seemed to notice Li Weihai's unusual movement, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
"It seems Li Weihai is planning to run away."
Qin Ruxue was a little confused: "Hasn't he always been calm?"
"The moonlight tonight is just right for action." Lin Fan did not directly answer Qin Ruxue's question, but looked up at the sky with a hint of deep meaning in his eyes.
Qin Ruxue was stunned for a moment, then she understood. She knew what was going to happen next—it was a night suitable for "doing things."
"Alika, you are responsible for protecting Ruxue." Lin Fan turned to Alika who had just returned and said.
"I have something to take care of." After Lin Fan gave a brief explanation, he withdrew his attention.
"Are you going to do it?" Alika asked.
"Start with small things and warm up." Lin Fan explained with a smile.
"Miss Qin, are you hungry? Let's find a place to eat something. Don't worry, I will ensure your safety." Alika turned to Qin Ruxue and said.
Qin Ruxue nodded. Although she also wanted to see what would happen next, since Lin Fan had no intention of inviting her to go, she didn't want to force it.
At this time, Lin Fan did not choose to escape by speedboat, but found a hidden place alone and summoned his Longyuan Sword.
With a flash of light, he ascended into the air on his sword, overlooking the entire Antique. Under the night sky, he merged with the darkness, quietly waiting for the perfect opportunity to arrive.
More than ten minutes later, Li Weihai and his bodyguards jumped onto the speedboat and drove away quickly.
Lin Fan sneered, stepped on the Longyuan Sword, and followed closely behind.
At this time, Li Weihai was completely unaware of the crisis above his head. As the Antique gradually went away and no other speedboats could be seen around, he relaxed a little.
"We left in time, so we shouldn't have been discovered."
