Chapter 1251: Master Lu’s Retaliation (1)
“Come, tell me, do you want a refund, or do you want the Octagon Auction House to compensate you?”
In just a while, the other white-clothed young man and the bearded middle-aged man also got up from the ground in fear.
Perhaps shocked by Mu Tianyan’s move just then, they stood at the side trembling, as if they wanted to turn themselves transparent with all their might.
The yellow-haired young man subconsciously looked at the bearded man, the pleading look in his eyes very obvious.
However, the short-bearded man lowered his head and couldn’t receive his distress signal at all.
Perhaps even if he received it, he wouldn’t dare to speak up for him.
Lu Zijia saw the yellow-haired young man’s subconscious reaction and turned her cold gaze to the short-bearded man.
“If he doesn’t want to talk, you can go first!”
Lu Zijia put her hands behind her back and walked to the short-bearded man like a queen patrolling.
The short-bearded man, who was quickly thinking about how to escape this calamity, saw the feet that suddenly appeared under his eyes and took two steps back in shock.
His reaction really made him feel guilty no matter how he looked at it.
“There’s no need to be so agitated. I’ve already said just now that I’ll satisfy your requests one by one. Tell me, do you want a refund or compensation?” Lu Zijia asked with a smile.
The short-bearded man, who had already seen how powerful Lu Zijia was, was extremely flustered. He searched his mind desperately, trying to find a way to deal with her.
However, he didn’t know if it was because of the invisible pressure Lu Zijia gave him or something, but he couldn’t think of a reasonable way to deal with it or a reason to get away for a long time.
“It’s difficult to choose?”
Lu Zijia raised her eyebrows slightly. “Why don’t I help you choose? Just choose a refund! Come, take out everything you bought at our Octagon Auction House. As long as you return the things as they are, not only will I help you return them, but I’ll also compensate you with a large amount of gold coins.”
Hearing that, the onlookers outside couldn’t help looking surprised. They all thought that Lu Zijia was totally giving others a chance to exploit a loophole.
As long as they returned the things in their original state, they would be able to obtain a huge sum of compensation. This was simply letting them earn money for nothing!
Even Zuo Wei and the others felt that Lu Zijia’s method was inappropriate.
However, in front of everyone, even if Lu Zijia’s decision was wrong, they couldn’t stop her.
Otherwise, it would be a slap to the face of Lu Zijia, the alchemist, in public.
The only person present who didn’t have any change in expression was Mu Tianyan.
Apparently, he didn’t have any doubts about what Lu Zijia did. Instead, he trusted her completely.
“Really?”
The short-bearded man suddenly looked up, his dark face full of disbelief. “Will you not make things difficult for me and let me leave here safely as long as I return the goods?”
Lu Zijia nodded affirmatively. “Of course, I’ll keep my word. As long as you can take out the things you bought from our Octagon Auction House and return them.”
Seeing Lu Zijia’s easygoing look, the short-bearded man even suspected that she wasn’t thinking clearly. Otherwise, why would she make such a loss?
“I… I just bought a Xuanyun Pill at your auction house. You… really won’t make things difficult for me?”
The short-bearded man was a bit nervous. He took out a jade bottle from his body and asked with uncertainty.
He looked like he was about to write the words “deeply suspicious” on his face..
