I Inherit An Auction House At The Start, Trillion Times Rebate!

Chapter 97: Waiting for the Right Time

Lin Yixuan held a feast and took out the spirit wine that he had been saving for a long time to welcome Lin Mo. He was filled with emotions and was still in shock. The owner of the auction house that was helping him was Lin Mo.

“Oh right, why did you think of hiding your identity and not contacting us directly?”

Lin Mo smiled meaningfully. “This is the only way to make the second elder and the others lower their guard and fall into my trap.”

Lin Yixuan was stunned at first. Then, he seemed to think of something and looked at Lin Mo differently. “Good, good, good!” he said. It was enough to show how happy he was at the moment.

“It’s all linked together, scheming step by step. Even the second elder, that scheming and sinister old fox, fell for your trap. It’s really like the new wave pushing another wave forward.”

Lin Yixuan was very emotional. Lin Mo had only taken one step, but he had already thought of the next hundred steps. He could even make everyone follow his plan.

If Lin Mo had not hidden his identity in the beginning and first aroused the second elder’s hostility, Lin Mo would not find an opportunity to go against the second elder.

As a situation led to another, Lin Yixuan eventually helped Lin Mo to scam the second elder of the spiritual stones. It was as if killing two birds with one stone.

“Now that you’ve finally returned to the Lin clan, what plans do you have? Based on the second elder’s character, he definitely won’t let you off easily.”

Lin Mo smiled coldly, his eyes were filled with unconcealed killing intent. “I won’t let him off so easily either.” The aura he gave off shocked even Lin Yixuan. After all, the Lin Mo from before was not such a person.

As if he knew what Lin Yixuan was thinking, Lin Mo explained casually, “First elder, after I left the Lin clan, the second elder sent several groups of people to deal with me. They wanted to take my life. We’ve reached the point where we won’t rest until one of us dies.”

“What?!”

Lin Yixuan shouted in disbelief, “There’s such an incident?”

Lin Mo briefly mentioned a few incidents. In the middle, he omitted the things related to the system and the destruction of the Miao clan. Lin Yixuan’s expression became more serious after he heard it.

After a long while, he said, “I didn’t know that there was such a thing. If I knew, I wouldn’t have let him do whatever he wants!”

Lin Mo said this calmly, but it was obvious that the journey he went through was extremely dangerous. It was definitely not as simple as he said.

Lin Yixuan and the second elder had fought for so many years, and he knew this person’s strength and character. Lin Mo was able to make the second elder lose time and time again, and he even suffered such a huge loss. It was enough to show that his strength was not to be underestimated.

Lin Mo said indifferently, “It’s nothing. I’m not injured anyway. The second elder, on the other hand, has been shooting himself in his foot many times. He should’ve learned that I’m taking over the auction house by now.”

Thinking of the second elder’s expression at this moment, Lin Yixuan felt extremely happy. It did not matter if it was Lin Mo who made the second elder suffer or the latter who made him suffer.

The second elder’s battle this time could be said to be a crushing defeat. He was completely defeated and had no way to fight back against Lin Mo.

“I really want to see his expression now, but the second elder should be shutting his door tight. He must be throwing a tantrum inside.”

Lin Wan also revealed a mischievous smile on the side. “Yeah, with a person like the second elder, I’m afraid he won’t be able to sleep well for a while.”

Compared to the second elder, Lin Yixuan’s methods were too gentle and he was an upright scholar. He did not want to use underhanded methods. On the other hand, the second elder was not able to achieve his goal hence he chose to use all kinds of methods.

That was why he planned and plotted against Lin Junyan, causing Lin Yixuan to lose his right-hand man. Then, he pressed on and nibbled at Lin Yixuan’s strength, trying to win over the hearts of the people in the clan.

That was why Lin Yixuan gradually fell to a disadvantage. Otherwise, if the two of them were to face each other, it was still unknown who would win.

“However, the second elder will not give up easily. He’ll definitely think of ways to deal with you later. You have to be careful. If you need my help, just let me know.”

Lin Yixuan was not worried that Lin Mo would come to seize power. He could tell that Lin Mo was not obsessed with power. Even if Lin Mo had the intention, and if the clan leader was Lin Mo, Lin Yixuan would agree to it.

After all, if the Lin clan fell into the hands of someone like the second elder, the clan would fall apart. It was also because of this that Lin Yixuan made up his mind to fight for the position of the clan leader with the second elder.

“Don’t worry, the second elder won’t be jumping around for long.”

Seeing Lin Mo’s confidence, Lin Yixuan was curious. “So, you already have a plan in mind?”

“It’s not a plan. I’m just waiting for him to get tired. The second elder must be very anxious because I’m threatening his position. I think he’ll act soon.”

Lin Mo did not even need to take the initiative to strike first. He was sure that he would definitely surpass Lin Yixuan based on the hatred he had for the second elder. That was why he was the first person the second elder attacked.

“Alright then. All in all, you have to be careful. What are your plans regarding the auction house?”

Lin Mo’s eyes turned and revealed a mysterious smile. “If it’s the second elder, where do you think he’ll go first to deal with me?”

Lin Yixuan immediately understood what Lin Mo meant. The two of them looked at each other.

“Alright, I’ll continue to send people to keep an eye on the second elder. I’ll inform you as soon as there’s any movement.”
