Chapter 217
Fade Chen looked at the inner disciples and asked politely, "Now, can I make my request?"
The four disciples knew that he had shown mercy on them as their injuries were all external ones.
Now that they managed to get up, they knew that they weren''t hurt very badly. After exchanging
blows with Fade, they were all aware of therge gap in skills that they had with him. If he was
serious, they would probably be left with more than just external injuries.
Therefore, they were extremely respectful towards Fade. They bowed politely and replied, "Of
course, Mr. Chen, what is your request?"
Seeing this, the people who were waiting for medicinal treatment were envious and hopeful. They
had their gazes fixed on Fade.
Some people even shouted out in anticipation, "Mr. Chen, I''m willing to pay one million yuan. Can
you help me fulfill my wish? I hope that the Cloud n can..."
Before he could finish speaking, a rich man butted in and said. "Only one million yuan? You can''t do
anything with that amount! Mr.
Chen, I''ll pay you five million, help me instead!" "Mr. Chen, my wish is to get medicine for my sick
mother, please help me. I''ll pay six million yuan."
"I''ll pay ten million yuan. I just want to join the Cloud n."
The ce was immediately turned into an auction house. As many who came to the Cloud n
were billionaires trying to obtain rare medicines, they started to offer Fade heaps of money just to
buy the right to his wish.
The Cloud n disciples disapproved of what was going on. However, there was no rule that
forbade them from doing so, so they could only quietly watch from the sidelines.Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.
In the meantime, the auction for Fade''s wish was getting more intense, with the bidding price
reaching a staggering amount of 40 million yuan.
At this price, it was already very difficult for any normal rich person. The people who were left
fighting over the wish were the richest of the rich.
Among them was a fat and wealthy man who had been bidding from the beginning. At this moment,
he clenched his teeth and made his bid, "50 million, I''ll pay 50 million yuan."
Hearing his decision, a middle-aged man in sses who was trying to outbid him shook his head
and gave up.
The fat man''s face lit up with joy as he thought he had won over the rights to Fade''s wish. He
looked at Fade and said, "Mr. Chen, I..."
Yet, he was suddenly interrupted by a female who said, "Sixty million, I''ll bid sixty million."
Everyone was stunned and looked in the direction of the voice. A young, short-haired woman
walked towards them slowly with a smile, and behind her was an elder dressed in a traditional
Chinese robe. Evidently, they were here to request for medicinal treatment too.
The fat rich man could already see his wish getting granted, so he was infuriated upon being
interrupted by the woman. He turned towards her and offered again, "Sixty five million yuan, I''ll pay
sixty five million yuan. Little girl, do you really want to bid with me? I''m the boss of Long City''s
Eternity Real Estate Company."
Eternity Real Estate was a well-known real estate firm in Long City with assets amounting to tens of
billions. After he revealed his identity, the people who were listening knew that even if they had
continued bidding, they would never be a match for him.
Yet, the short-woman looked scornful as she imed, "I''ve never heard of Eternity Real Estate
before."
"You..." The fat boss was angry, his face turning scarlet from the humiliation.
"I offer one hundred million yuan!" The short-haired woman continued to bid and continued to mock
the fat man. "I bid one hundred million yuan, do you still want to continue to bid?"
He gritted his teeth in annoyance and red at her. A whileter, he shook with rage and spat out
difficultly, "I''ll pay a hundred million and..."
Before he could finish, the short- haired woman brushed back her hair cooly and smiled as she
introduced, "By the way fattie, I forgot to introduce myself. I''m Sasha Li from Peony River."
"Sasha Li, Peony River..." The fat man repeated her words as they sounded quite familiar.
Out of the blue, the man recalled something and his eyes widened in shock. He turned to the
woman and trembled in disbelief as he said, "Your surname is Li and you''re from Peony River.... Are
you from Peony River''s Li family, ranked the richest family out of all
Chinese billionaires?"
The short- haired woman chuckled and agreed, "It seems that you''re not as dumb as I thought you''d
be."
As she didn''t refute the man''s words, her identity was now clear to the public. Instantly, everyone
looked at her with a mixture of shock and sheer envy.
The Li family of Peony River started their legacy from the head of the family at that time, Fenrir Li.
He created a huge business empire for the family from scratch, and since then dominated the
rankings for the richest Chinese in the area for more than 20 years. Their businesses have
franchises all over the world, and were considered one of the richest people on earth. Trying to
compare wealth and assets with them were like trying topare the sizes between an elephant
and an ant.
For a moment, everyone gawked at Sasha with a tinge of respect and fear in their eyes, some even
stepping backwards automatically.
Even Jonathan who was extremely arrogant just now had fallen silent. He kept his head down and
took a few steps back, not daring to make eye contact with her.
Sasha seemed to enjoy being the center of attention. With a faint smile hung loosely on her face,
she walked proudly in front of Fade andmanded, "My wish is to request Donavan Zhuo of the
Cloud n toe with me to the Li family of Peony River. Now, go make the request!"
After that, she took out a cheque and handed it over to Fade condescendingly.
Fade looked closely at this woman named Sasha. She was quite pretty and had luxurious clothes
and essories on her. They managed toplement her beauty very well, making her look like a
goddess from heaven.
However, she had a haughty and supercilious look in her eyes as if everything was under her
control. This disgusted Fade.
People were allowed to be prideful but not arrogant, especially when they were trying to ask
someone for a favour.
Therefore, Fade did not ept Sasha''s cheque and instead said, "I don''t think I have mentioned
that I was going to sell my wish. I''m sorry but I can''t ept this."
Sasha red at him and frowned, "It seems you want more money. Just name your price."
Fade repeated himself once again, "Miss Li, it seems you don''t understand what I''m trying to say.
I''ve already said it once and I''ll say it again, my wish is not for sale!"
"Not for sale?" Sasha scoffed with disdain, "From my point of view, there are only things that are
affordable and not affordable. I have always been able to get my hands on whatever I want. Now,
tell me how much you want."
"Oh really?" Fade remarked, "Since Miss Li insists, wouldn''t it be better if you just directly bought
your wish from the Cloud n instead of me here?"
"You..." Sasha was taken aback as her request was turned down and was fuming with anger.
She did try to bribe Donavan Zhuo of the Cloud n, but her efforts proved fruitless. Hence, she
came here in person in order to think of a way to get him toe with her back to the Li family in
order to help cure her grandfather. She thought she was lucky when Fade managed to pass the trial
and obtain a chance to make a request.
