Chen Fan Appears

Chen Fan: Viktoria's ex-fiancé

----

After that secret conversation, Victoria looked at a beautiful brown-haired woman who was also at the entrance of the building.

"Olivia, please take them to room number 1."

The auction room comprised 30 private rooms and an area for the general public. The main room would always be reserved for Vlad and his women.

She nodded and led everyone to the VIP room.

Olivia was one of the women that Vlad hired from the portable world. She was a Celestial King realm cultivator.

In this way, the women were the center of attention. They were beautiful and gave a special aura that distinguished them from the crowd. Some men approached, but as soon as they were a meter away, a powerful pressure suffocated them; therefore, they gave up the idea of approaching these beautiful fairies.

The redhead was no exception. Many women tried to talk to him. There some were even more daring ones who secretly gave him her communication talismans.

Vlad chuckled internally, 'These women are very direct.'

After following Oliva, they arrived at a luxuriously decorated room, settled in the chairs, and waited for the start of the auction.

"If you want something from the auction, you can ask me. I have more resources of the same type."

The women smiled and nodded. All except Halinka.

The place was bustling. Expectations were sky-high. Many people hoped to find a high-quality herb, weapon, or maybe a pill to help them progress on the difficult path of cultivation.

Cultivators from the nearby cities and other kingdoms came for the auction. Not to mention the families from the empire capital waiting for an opportunity.

Soon the whole area was full, and no soul could fit. At that time, they had to restrict entry. Some Celestial lords tried to force their way in, but Dax easily beat them.

That gave attendees an idea of the force behind this store.

In one of the private rooms.

"Mom, what do you think of this auction? Viktoria has spread the rumor that rare treasures and grade 5 heavenly weapons will appear today."

"Don't know. This is all very strange. The guy at the entrance was a very powerful cultivator. He is so powerful that even Emperor Aurek cannot compare to him."

"What? Are you sure, Mom? Emperor Aurek is a cultivator at the peak Celestial King realm."

"I'm sure. I don't know who Viktoria's new backer is, but they are very powerful."

A middle-aged man spoke courteously, "My queen, Lady Viktoria entered her disciple in the contest to choose the princess's guardian. Also, her disciple is an unknown youth who came from nowhere."

In this private room were Queen Kassia Slora, Princess Rasia, and General Ryzard, the queen's trusted man.

Kassia pondered for a bit and said.

"A disciple appears out of nowhere, and then Viktoria opens this shop. I'm sure her backer and this disciple have a close relationship. Daughter, if that young man wins the contest, he tries to win his favor. Maybe he will become a foothold for us."

"Mother! I never expected those words to come out of your mouth. I will never do something like that."

"Daughter, you must prioritize your future. You are no longer a girl. Get close to him. If he is a good man, something can happen between you. If he is a bad person… I will never force you to marry someone who will make you unhappy."

While mother and daughter argued.

Vlad was immersed in his thoughts.

'Mother, Feng Yao, and Zara. Are you okay? Is the baby okay? I hope Yao doesn't make things difficult for Zara.

Marek was strong, so Vlad didn't worry about him.

Soon the auction began.

Magda stood on the stage. Many beautiful women followed her like an entourage, each holding an open chest where storage rings could be seen.

"Hello to all fellow cultivators joining us today. My name is Magda, and I am honored to host this auction…." Magda spoke for a few minutes. Her introductory speech stoked the excitement about the auction.

"Before starting. There is a rule that everyone must comply with. If someone does not comply with this rule, They will be expelled from the auction, no matter who it is. The competition for treasures must be fair. You can't bully someone into letting you bid on an item."

"Everyone is eager to bid on our treasures, so start the auction with the first item without further ado."

Magda took out the first item from the storage ring and showed it to the spectators, "3-color Heavenly Lotus".

"This special herb has many uses. If consumed directly, it can strengthen the soul, but it is also one of the ingredients for various soul-related pills. The starting price is 10,000 Grade 2 Spirit Crystals." Magda smiled. All the treasures inside the ring were special. They would certainly gain a lot of crystals today.

The crowd went euphoric. A three-colored celestial lotus is an extremely rare medicinal herb, at least for them.

"20,000"

"30,000"

…

In the end, the lotus was sold for 55,000 crystals.

Soon a sexy blonde entered the room where Vlad and the women were.

She walked over to Vlad's seat and sat on his lap. The women were stunned by Viktoria's audacity.

Halinka, on the other hand, was not surprised; she was an experienced woman and knew what Viktoria was doing.

She wants to establish her position and seek Vlad's favor.

"Viktoria, if there is something in the auction that you want, tell me. I have more resources of the same type."

A sweet smile formed on the blonde's face, "Yes, honey."

The auction went smoothly. People were impressed. All the treasures were valuable and rare.

Time did not stop running, and it was almost the end of the auction. The girls asked Vlad for some resources, and he did not limit himself.

Suddenly Vlad's talisman glowed. It was a message from Dax.

"Master, an idiot wants to break in. He says that he is Mrs. Viktoria's ex-fiancé. I thought the best thing would be to consult with you."

"Let him in, hahaha I thought tonight would be boring."

Viktoria gave him an apologetic look, "I'm sorry honey, I…."

"Do not apologize. Let's see that wants that idiot." Vlad responded with a big smile.

The couple left the private room and went to the stage. According to the information they received, Chen Fan will go there.

On the way, the redhead used God Isamu's bracelet to change his appearance to that of Huang Feng.

Magda presented the penultimate article.

"Next, what you've all been waiting for, this sword is called 'Final Strike,' and it's a grade 5 heavenly sword of superior quality. His attribute is wind and thunder. Base price 100,000 grade 2" crystals

"Stop, that sword is mine" A man came on stage, followed by ten men in hoods and masks. His face looked fair, and he had a heroic demeanor. He was not arrogant or humble.

Chen Fan convinced the emperor to seize Viktoria's weapons through this farce. That's why Aurek sent 10 Empire Guardians with him.

All the people began to murmur.

"Chen Fan! Isn't that Mrs. Viktoria's ex-fiancé?"

"I thought it was the end of the auction, but the fun is just beginning."

"Did Lady Viktoria steal that sword?"

"10 empire guardians are accompanying Chen Fan. It seems that this shop is ruined."

Sure, in the eyes of the people of the Slora Kingdom, they were an expert formation, but from Vlad's perspective, they were just a bunch of buffoons trying to put on a show.

Just at that moment, Vlad and Viktoria came up on stage.

Viktoria stepped forward and said.

"Cut the shit. I only have one question: Do you want to cause trouble, or have you come to steal?" Viktoria looked at him with disdain.

Fazio, Leah, and Dax were ready to make a move on her. They remained hidden, as per Vlad's orders.

"Viktoria, I trusted you and let you keep my two weapons. I can't believe you try to sell them without my consent. Tell me, who is the thief?" Chen Fan acted like a fair man.

Vlad walked next to Viktoria.

"What are the attributes of the spear and its design? I will give you the weapons if you tell me what they are. What do you think?" Vlad said.

It was common knowledge that a sword and spear would be up for auction today. The sword had been revealed, but the spear remained in Magda's ring.

"Who are you?" Chen Fan kept his cool. Obviously, he didn't know what the spear's attributes were, so he tried to avoid that question.

"I'm in charge of Mrs. Viktoria's security," Vlad replied.

Internally, Vlad felt weird for calling the blonde: 'Mrs. Viktoria'.

"Old man, it's not your turn to intervene. You're just a servant." Chen Fan looked at the old man with disdainful eyes.

(NOTE: remember that Vlad dressed up as Huang Feng, Marek's old slave)

++++++

Do you think that Vlad should kill Chen Fan with the help of his subordinates? Or should he wait until his cultivation equals him, and he can kill him with his bare hands?
