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

Chapter 96: Lin Mo’s Oppression and Threats

Lin Mo’s residence had long been abandoned. The clan leader temporarily placed him in the first elder’s courtyard and watched as Lin Mo, Lin Yixuan, and the others left. In addition, Lin Junyan had already recovered from his injuries.

Many people knew that the Lin clan’s situation was about to change once again. It could be seen from the attitude of the fence-sitters.

Previously, the Lin clan’s first elder and second elder were standing in a large formation. As the second elder had the upper hand, many people started to approach him. Now, those people started to waver again.

At this moment, the second elder smashed many things. His expression was dark as he looked at the debris on the ground. It was as if those things that he had smashed were Lin Mo, Lin Yixuan, and the others.

“Lin Mo is really haunting us. He’s already in such a state, yet he didn’t die from the self-destruction of the Miao clan’s spiritual power.”

At the same time, his eyes were filled with fear that he did not even notice. He had attacked Lin Mo several times, yet Lin Mo had still managed to escape. Instead, he had become stronger and stronger.

To ensure that nothing went wrong, he had even traveled thousands of miles to Qingyang City and personally contacted the Miao clan to make arrangements. In the end, all his efforts had been for naught, and the entire Miao clan was eradicated. Even he had suffered a great loss of vitality and had yet to recover until now. Lin Mo, on the other hand, acted as if nothing had happened.

“Lin Mo is really strange. What should we do now? From his actions these few times, it’s obvious that he’s targeting us. He’s also on good terms with the first elder. He’ll definitely become big trouble for us in the future.”

Previously, in front of the clan leader and everyone else, the second elder did not take the matter of the auction house to heart because everyone knew that if it was not for him intentionally targeting Lin Yixuan, he would not have fallen into Lin Mo’s trap.

Even if he said it out loud, it would be useless. It would only make him look bad.

“Lin Mo can’t be left alive.”

The second elder felt a great threat. He had a feeling that if Lin Mo was not eliminated, he would never be able to take the position of the clan leader. In fact, Lin Mo’s influence on him was even greater than Lin Yixuan’s as if it became a thorn in his throat.

However, it was not what the second elder and the others had expected. Not long after, the clan leader sent someone to deliver the news.

The second elder shouted in disbelief, “What?! The clan leader said that Lin Mo would take care of the auction house for the time being? He really said that?”

Facing the second elder’s knife-like gaze, the person who delivered the message felt as if his entire body was being sliced apart. He could only brace himself and continue, “The clan leader said that Lin Mo had just returned and already managed the newly opened auction house so well that everyone in the city knew about it. Even the Lin clan had to avoid its sharp edge. Therefore...”

His voice became softer and softer as he spoke. It was because the second elder’s gaze became more and more terrifying. It was to the extent that his legs trembled and he almost lost his footing. The pressure from a dragon transformation realm expert was not something a mere servant like him could withstand.

The second elder gritted his teeth and bellowed, “Scram!”

The servant ran out as if he was relieved of a heavy burden, escaping from a massive flood or a ferocious beast behind him.

The second elder and the rest were left with ashen faces. The auction house was originally given to them to manage on their behalf, which meant that the majority of the power of the Lin clan would gradually lean toward them. When that time came, Lin Yixuan and the rest would no longer have anything to do with it.

Now that Lin Mo had come back and snatched this away, who knew what he would do in the future?

“I’ve underestimated Lin Mo. He’s only just returned to the Lin clan and he’s already made such a big commotion. What else could he not do?”

“I don’t know what this kid told the clan leader in private that he agreed to it.”

“If this continues, I’m afraid it’ll be disadvantageous for us. Our position in the Lin clan will also be in jeopardy.”

“This kid used a forceful method to pull away most of the customers and we had no choice but to close the auction house temporarily. I think it’s because of this that the clan leader looks at him differently.”

The elders who were on good terms with the second elder discussed animatedly. Due to the second elder’s persuasion or enticement, they were now in the same boat, not to mention offending Lin Yixuan to death. If Lin Yixuan were to ascend to the clan leader position in the future, nothing good would happen to them. Hence, they had to leave no matter what.

Furthermore, they had supported Lin Mo when they said they would strip him of his surname and expel him from the Lin clan. Now that Lin Mo had returned, they would not be able to escape if they wanted to settle the score later.

“What are you panicking for?!” The second elder reprimanded sternly. “Lin Mo is only in charge now and has yet to truly take over but all of you are starting to panic.”

Even though he said that, his expression did not look good.

“This brat is so scheming.”

Now, the second elder finally knew why Lin Mo had hidden the truth from everyone when he first returned. It turned out that he was waiting for them to go to him. It seemed that he had been scheming from the start.

He only regretted that back then, he did not stab Lin Mo in the back to see if Lin Mo was dead, or else this would not have happened.

The second elder had thought that since he was badly affected by the impact of the self-destruction, Lin Mo, who was at the center of it, would perish. He did not expect that god’s plan would turn out like this.

He sneered. “Since he’s so impatient, let’s let him take charge of the auction house. When the time comes, we won’t have to worry about not finding an opportunity to make a move.”

Compared to the pressure on the second elder’s side, Lin Yixuan and the others were very happy.

“I was worried about your safety, but there were too many things to deal with in the clan. In addition, the second elder and the others were stirring up trouble. They kept pressing us and we didn’t have time to contact you. I didn’t expect you to change so much.”
