Thirty million!
The moment this price was announced, the entire venue was in an uproar!
A rare-grade equipment was sold for a staggering thirty million, which was simply shocking.
This price could even fetch a slightly inferior epic-grade equipment.
However, there was no change on Ji's father's face. In terms of financial strength, the Ji Group in Qingcheng had never been afraid of anyone.
So what if you, Kenson, are the king of the underground world? In terms of financial strength, even two Kenson's wouldn't be enough to compare with the Ji Group.
"Very well, thirty million." Kenson's gaze turned cold. Even he would feel a sting in his heart for paying thirty million for a rare-grade equipment.
This was an auction held by the Treasure House. Even if he was Kenson, he wouldn't dare to quote prices randomly here.
With this move, the Ji Group and Kenson's enmity was sealed.
In the end, the Imperial Dragon Ring was successfully acquired by Ji's father.
"Damn it! Has Kenson gone crazy? When did I kill his people?"
Although he successfully bid for the Imperial Dragon Ring, there was no trace of joy in Ji's father's eyes.
Making an enemy of Kenson in Qingcheng was a huge trouble. The key was that he never intended to offend Kenson. It was Kenson who came at him like a mad dog from the start.
"Uncle Ji, we need to see through the surface to the essence. When someone wants to attack you, even a soldier going missing can be used as an excuse. Whether Kenson's people are dead or not is up to him to say."
Ye Lin began to analyze for Ji's father in a very logical manner. He dared not let Ji's father know that Kenson was targeting the Ji Group because of him. Otherwise, he would surely be thrown out.
When your strength is too weak to solve the conflict, you can choose to expand the conflict!
"Kenson has always wanted to come out of the underground and become a true businessman, but the market in Qingcheng is already saturated, and there is no chance for him to enter. But if he takes over the Ji Group, he will have a ready-made large enterprise."
Ye Lin's words made Ji's father fall into deep thought, his eyes flickering with a sharp light.
It was terrifying to think about! Cold sweat suddenly broke out on Ji's father's forehead!
He had thought that Kenson was just randomly attacking people in a fit of madness, but if Kenson was feigning madness while secretly plotting against the Ji Group, then when he strikes, it will be with overwhelming force!
If he didn't prepare in advance, he would surely be caught off guard by Kenson! After all, in terms of the number of powerful subordinates, the Ji Group was indeed no match for Kenson.
"Ye Lin! Thank you! A person in the situation can't see clearly, but an outsider can. If it weren't for your reminder, I wouldn't have thought of this layer."
Ji's father looked at Ye Lin with gratitude in his eyes.
"It's nothing, Uncle. You are Ji Lingyu's father, and I am Ji Lingyu's brother. I naturally regard you as my father."
Ye Lin smiled brightly, showing eight big white teeth.
"This..." Ji's father was somewhat stunned. Looking at Ye Lin's sincere face, a tinge of guilt rose in his heart. "You are also a child with a hard life. If you don't mind, you can stay in the Ji family from now on."
"Okay, Uncle!" Ye Lin nodded.
At this moment, the waiter also brought the Imperial Dragon Ring to Ji's father. A ring lay quietly on the tray, with exquisite dragon patterns engraved on it, emitting a faint glow, as if containing endless secrets.
"Take it. See if you like it." Ji's father smiled and handed the Imperial Dragon Ring to Ye Lin.
Ye Lin put the Imperial Dragon Ring on his finger, and a strange force came from the ring, making him feel extremely comfortable, as if he had taken a hot bath in the dead of winter.
[Imperial Dragon Ring]
[Level: Rare]
[Attribute: 30% increase in mental power] (Can be refined)
[Skill: Dragon Aura Possession]
[Dragon Aura Possession: The wearer of the Imperial Dragon Ring is protected by the dragon aura and can increase their luck value by 10%]
Ye Lin's heart gave a jolt. The concept of luck points was so mysterious. Some people could even find an ancient secret manual when they fell off a cliff, while others could be falsely accused of taking photos by a fairy just by taking the subway. Although luck points were intangible, having them was still better than not having them. Besides, the mental power boost from the Imperial Dragon Ring of Desire was already rare enough, as it was a percentage increase!
"Thank you, Uncle! Don't worry, Uncle. Even if I have to carry him, I will carry Ling Yu into a top university!" Ye Lin said seriously.
"Family members don't need to be so formal. Let's not talk like this. If you see anything you like, just tell me," Father Ji chuckled, feeling extremely relieved. After all, that was what he had been waiting for.
Seeing Ye Lin and Father Ji chatting and laughing, Kenson's eyes flashed with coldness. He was even more convinced that the death of his men must have been the work of the Ji Group.
During the following auction, no rare-level equipment appeared. Most of the items were advanced equipment, with a small portion being intermediate equipment.
However, no matter what kind of equipment it was, whenever Father Ji made a bid, Kenson would always follow up. Father Ji often had to pay more than 50% above the original price to get an item.
Kenson's malicious bidding behavior made Father Ji furious, but the auctioneer, Qingqing, showed no intention of stopping it. After all, the higher the auction price, the more money they could make from the Treasure House. They naturally wouldn't meddle in it.
During this time, Father Ji also bought a ring, two bracelets, and a necklace for Ye Lin, all of which were advanced equipment.
[Azure Thunder Ring]
[Level: Advanced]
[Attribute: Mental Power +15%] (Can be refined)
[Skill: Thunder Enhancement]
[Thunder Enhancement: The power of the wearer's lightning skills increases by 20%]
[Yin-Yang Twin Bracelets]

[Attribute: Mental Power +40%] (Can be refined)
[Skill: Yin-Yang Twin]
[Yin-Yang Twin: When both the Yin and Yang bracelets are worn, Yin and Yang merge and regenerate, allowing for rapid healing of the wearer's injuries.]
[Burning Moon Necklace]
[Level: Advanced]
[Attribute: Mental Power +200] (Can be refined)
[Skill: None]
Among these four pieces of equipment, each one had the effect of increasing mental power. Combined with the Imperial Dragon Ring of Desire, Ye Lin's mental power boost had reached an astonishing 85%, with an additional fixed 200 points of mental power.
This meant that even without activating the Burning Cycle, Ye Lin's mental power at level 16 could reach an astonishing 1088 points! Ye Lin gently stroked the Yin-Yang Twin Bracelets. Although the Yin-Yang Twin Bracelets counted as two pieces of equipment and occupied two equipment slots, they were his favorite.
With the Yin-Yang Twin Bracelets, he now had a reasonable explanation for his injuries healing quickly.
"Ye Lin, for this last piece of equipment, you should choose something that can save your life, right? Among the last three items, there is a soft armor with extremely strong defense. I think it would be quite suitable for you," Father Ji chuckled.
The first five pieces of equipment Ye Lin had chosen were all for increasing combat power. If he didn't choose a life-saving piece of equipment for the last one, he would be too vulnerable to attacks. Only by staying alive could one deal damage. This was an unchanging truth.
