Chapter 351 -350: Ended Up Trapping Himself

Luo Ning’s targeting was too explicit, if anyone present couldn’t see that she was intentionally targeting the Luo Family, then they were fools.

Yet, everyone wore the look of someone watching a good show.

It was actually quite surprising and startling too, no one expected Luo Ning to be so bold as to directly confront the Luo Family.

Everyone had a question, was it worth it just for an unfulfilled scheme against Luo Chun’er?

Yet, the clever ones among them could see that the lawsuit between Luo Ning and the Luo Family wasn’t just about Luo Chun’er’s matter; it was more complex.

Luo Kaiyuan was infuriated and thus let Luo Yuefeng step in.

After being outmaneuvered by Luo Ning twice, Luo Yuefeng had wised up and wanted to trap Luo Ning.

So, when an Ancient Evil appeared, she started bidding, and sure enough, Luo Ning followed suit as expected.

Luo Yuefeng quickly bid more than double the market price.

She thought to herself that Luo Ning would stop after calling out her price and would bleed the other party dry.

But no sooner had she placed her bid than Luo Ning did not aggressively counter-bid like before.

Then the Ancient Evil, which was useless to both the Luo Family and Luo Yuefeng herself, ended up with her.

Zu Xiao didn’t like Luo Yuefeng, and since his own brother had already sided with Luo Ning, he certainly wasn’t going to play both sides.

Thus, enjoying the drama without fear of making it bigger, he asked Luo Ning, “Master Luo, why didn’t you bid on this antique?”

Luo Ning chuckled lightly, “The current price has far exceeded the item’s value by a lot, I’m not stupid.”

The items that the Luo Family genuinely wanted to bid on were naturally good and useful to her, so even if the prices were higher, they were within reasonable limits.

She intended to thwart the Luo Family indeed, but she wasn’t foolish enough to bid high for things she didn’t need.

So to say, Luo Yuefeng still didn’t understand her, dreaming of trapping her was even more feasible.

“Pfft!” someone couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Luo Ning saying she wasn’t stupid was an implicit suggestion that Luo Yuefeng was.

Anyone sitting here wasn’t a fool, it was clear that Luo Yuefeng tried to scheme against Luo Ning, but little did she know that Luo Ning was smarter, and Luo Yuefeng ended up trapping herself.

Zu Xiao also held back a laugh and said, “Master Luo, wise insight!”

Luo Yuefeng hadn’t expected that Luo Ning wasn’t just acting rashly before but was always very rational while dealing with them.

Now being publicly stripped of a layer, her face turned both red and pale, both embarrassed and infuriated.

Luo Kaiyuan’s expression also worsened, and he started to doubt and feel dissatisfied with Luo Yuefeng, the leader of the younger generation of the Luo Family.

After all, he was usually on Xiang Island, and his interactions with Luo Yuefeng weren’t extensive.

He initially had high hopes for Luo Yuefeng and had discussed Feng Shui Xuan Shu together.

He found her truly talented, and she knew many family secrets and how to use them, which was rare among the younger generation.

Considering how Luo Yuefeng conducted herself wisely like the eldest daughter-in-law of the family, he thought she truly was well-taught.

But now compared to Luo Ning, he felt Luo Yuefeng still lacked maturity.

In front of so many distinguished people from Xiang Island, trying to trap someone but getting trapped instead, it was a huge loss of face.

Consequently, his impression of Luo Yuefeng had also greatly diminished.

The master of ceremonies for the next part of the auction was replaced by an old man dressed in a Daoist robe.

And the people present showed no surprise, Luo Ning knew the highlight of the auction was about to begin.

Zu Xiao had reminded her before coming that she could bring precious but unnecessary items as they might come in handy.

Indeed, the old Daoist started with a smile.

“I will be hosting the next auction,” he declared. “I believe you are all familiar with the procedure, and for this last segment of the auction, we won’t be using money. Instead, it will be a barter system.”

“The employer will bring up the items to be auctioned, and the participants below will offer items of similar value in exchange. The employer will then choose whose items they prefer and make the trade.”

“If there are no objections, let’s start now.”

Naturally, there were no objections from the crowd.

The old Daoist set a precedent by offering a painting that was known to stabilize homes and contained a trace of Vital Energy for the auction.

The Feng Shui Masters were not particularly interested, but the wealthy tycoons showed great interest, eagerly presenting their items.

The old Daoist selected an antique for the exchange and then let others come up on stage with their items.

Luo Ning realized there were indeed many valuable items up for grabs, no wonder money was not being used.

Money could be earned again, but these items could not truly be measured by money; once gone, they were gone, or if missed, they were missed.

Thanks to Zu Xiao’s reminder, Luo Ning had also brought valuable items.

Whether it was the mismatch of aura or not, the two items she was interested in were also coveted by the Luo Family.

Thus, another competition ensued.

Ultimately, Luo Ning directly produced two Protective Jade Artifacts and exchanged the items.

Seeing Luo Ning bring out two more Protective Jade Artifacts, everyone in attendance was stunned.

The Feng Shui Masters wondered what background Luo Ning had to possess so many high-level Magical Tools.

Luo Yuefeng had not expected Luo Ning to continuously bring out high-level Magical Tools.

Knowing she was also set to travel abroad for training, her mother had struggled to obtain a Golden Pearl high-level Magical Tool from their family to bring along.

She felt even more irritated inside, thinking her uncle had provided Luo Ning with too many high-level Magical Tools, allowing her to be so wasteful.

These were items from the Luo Family, and she wondered why Luo Ning deserved so many.

Luo Kaiyuan shared the same view, suspecting that the Magical Tools in Luo Ning’s possession must have been given by Luo Yicheng; otherwise, where could she have gotten so many?

And where did Luo Yicheng get so many high-level Magical Tools? Most likely, they were taken from the family’s treasury.

His expression darkened not only because Luo Ning was intentionally going against them, always sniping to intercept, but also because he felt a pang of pain.

From his perspective, trading those high-level Magical Tools for the items earlier was a loss.

If those Magical Tools were taken to an auction within the island’s circle, the exchange would have undoubtedly been much more favorable.

This Luo Ning was not only sharp-tongued but also a complete spendthrift.

He had been holding back his feelings.

Then, just before the auction was about to end, Luo Ning presented another Protective Jade Ornament, preparing to exchange it for a thousand-year-old ginseng. The people from the Luo Family could no longer sit still.

Luo Kaiyuan felt a pain that wrenched his heart. How many high-level Magical Tools did Luo Ning have after all?

Luo Yicheng was spoiling his daughter excessively, giving her so many treasures to squander.

Nowadays, the high-level Magical Tools in the family were dwindling—one fewer with each use. Not only would they not be traded for other items, but even rewards within the family required consideration of status and merit.

Yet, Luo Ning seemed to be wholesaling them, continuously bringing them out to exchange for items he viewed as not equivalent. It felt like she was cutting flesh from his heart.

His reputation on Xiang Island was significant, and he held a certain status, so it wasn’t appropriate for him to scold Luo Ning in public.

Of course, he was mainly worried about Luo Ning’s harsh tongue, which could embarrass him.

Therefore, he gave Luo Yuefeng a look, signaling her to intervene.

Luo Yuefeng inwardly cursed Luo Kaiyuan for being an old fox but felt compelled not to go against his wishes.

Most importantly, she wanted to vent.

Thus, with a face full of endurance and displeasure, she addressed Luo Ning, “Luo Ning, although our Luo Family’s foundation is not weak, you really shouldn’t be squandering the family’s items like this!”
