Chapter 212: I handed over the Chinese deity to the state, and the state asked me to auction him off
Su Fan and Ma Tao returned to their hotel in Seoul.
Su Fan looked at Ma Tao, and they exchanged a glance.
"Old Ma, let's leave South Korea quickly. I've basically bought up all the powerful Chinese deities in South Korea. Let's leave now, or the Americans will come knocking on our door."
Every overseas Chinese who buys a statue of a Chinese deity in South Korea will be found by the South Koreans and forced to stay in South Korea for a year.
No matter how powerful your background is, the United States is just that unreasonable.
You'll spend a year training diligently in South Korea, and then a year later, you'll be assigned to the front lines to attack China.
After listening, Ma Tao nodded, then closed his eyes and prepared.
When he opened his eyes again, he had turned into a mosquito, and next to him was Su Fan, who had also turned into a mosquito.
Su Fan used his divine power to transmit his voice to Ma Tao: "Old Ma, I have used my Seventy-Two Transformations to turn us into mosquitoes. Let's fly out of this window now, before they notice us."
After saying that, the two "mosquitoes" buzzed and flew out the window.
The presence of two mosquitoes in Seoul did not attract the attention of either the ninth-tier Divine Master from South Korea or the ninth-tier Divine Master from America.
Although Su Fan and Ma Tao had turned into mosquitoes, they were still incredibly fast.
They quickly flew out of Seoul and sped towards the border.
After two days and two nights of tireless travel, Su Fan and Ma Tao finally arrived at the border between South Korea and Korea.
However, just as Su Fan and his group were about to cross the border, an invisible barrier suddenly appeared, blocking their path.
This is a high-level supernatural barrier jointly set up by the United States and South Korea, specifically designed to prevent those who purchased statues of Chinese deities from escaping.
Su Fan hadn't known this before he left, assuming that if it was easy to get in, it shouldn't be a problem to get out either.
Su Fan and Ma Tao were trapped in front of the barrier when a barrage of arrows rained down from the sky, striking the two "mosquitoes" like a hail of bullets.
Su Fan's heart tightened, and he hurriedly used his exclusive divine power, "Lotus Blossoms with Every Step," which caused a green lotus flower to appear on his body, enveloping him and blocking the attack of the sharp arrow.
Ma Tao's method was even simpler: flames erupted directly from the mosquito's body.
The true fire of the sun melted the arrow in one fell swoop.
The Korean guards stationed at the border noticed that the barrier they had set up was reacting and hurriedly got up and rushed over.
"Which fool is trying to sneak out of South Korea again? Don't they know we've set up a protective barrier?"
"Hopefully, he'll still be alive this time?"
"Alive? You're dreaming. With this barrier combined with those arrows that can hunt down fifth-tier Divine Masters, how could anyone trying to escape withstand it?"
One of the guardians spoke with a cold laugh as he quickly rushed toward the location where the barrier was reacting.
Ma Tao sensed several approaching Korean guardians and transmitted his voice to Su Fan:
"Young friend Su, the Korean guardians stationed at the border are about to arrive. Should I just revert to human form and shatter this barrier?"
Su Fan thought for a moment, but couldn't come up with a good solution, so he finally nodded.
"Old Ma, don't use Zhu Rong's power, just use the power of Huo De Zhen Jun. This is to prevent the Korean gods from recognizing you and reporting it to the higher-ups."
The most famous Chinese deity that Ma Tao has contracted is the SR-level fire god Zhu Rong, while his former main DPS deity, Huo De Zhen Jun, is not well known.
Moreover, the power of the Fire Virtue True Lord is already sufficient.
Su Fan deactivated the effects of his Seventy-Two Transformations and landed on the ground.
Then he pointed at Ma Tao, who had turned into a mosquito, and removed the effects from Ma Tao's body.
Ma Tao instantly reverted to human form, his body engulfed in crimson flames—the power of the Fire Virtue True Lord.
He roared and slammed his palms against the barrier, the flames crashing against it like a surging tide.
The barrier trembled violently, emitting a buzzing sound.

A crack spread across the barrier, then the crack grew larger and larger until the barrier collapsed with a crash.
Ma Tao and Su Fan exchanged a glance, and then Ma Tao pulled Su Fan along, unleashing the full power of a ninth-level Divine Master within him.
They transformed into streaks of fire, flying rapidly into the distance like shooting stars.
Shortly after Su Fan and Ma Tao left, the South Korean God Masters arrived.
The eyes of the several Divine Warriors were filled with shock as they watched the two fiery red figures depart in the distance.
"Holy crap, who are these two? They actually managed to break through our high-level barrier!" one of the Divine Guardians exclaimed in surprise.
"This is troublesome!"
"What are you waiting for? Report this to the higher-ups immediately! Tell them about this!"
Another Divine Master reacted and hurriedly spoke.
This barrier, which could easily break through the barrier that could stop those below the eighth rank of the Divine Guardian, was shattered just like that. This is no small matter.
This means that at least one of the two who left has reached the level of an eighth-rank Divine Master.
An overseas Chinese of the eighth rank has entered South Korea, which is quite a big deal.
Moreover, the leader of the divine beings had a bold guess in his mind: the two people who escaped from South Korea were very likely Chinese.
Ma Tao drove Su Fan at breakneck speed, and soon they were miles away from the border.
The two did not stop, but headed straight for mainland China.
The two of them entered the country very smoothly in no time.
As soon as Su Fan and Ma Tao stepped onto Chinese soil, two people in uniforms came to greet them.
"Su Fan, Mr. Ma, welcome back to China!"
"We are the people sent by Elder Mo to welcome your triumphant return. Elder Mo has already arranged a place for you to rest."
Su Fan and Ma Tao exchanged a glance and followed them into the car.
As soon as he got in the car, Su Fan couldn't help but fall asleep comfortably.
After several days and nights of travel, even though he was a fourth-tier Divine Master, he felt extremely exhausted.
In a daze, Su Fan opened his eyes, and the car had arrived at its destination.
Su Fan and Ma Tao planned to stay in Harbin for a day or two to recover their strength before returning to Kyoto.
This was also what Mo Lao agreed with. Anyway, they had already returned to China, so there was no rush to go back to Beijing.
During his two-day break, Su Fan also started a live stream to auction off the A-level Chinese deity he had bought.
That's right. Anyway, Su Fan has no use for these A-level Chinese gods, so it's good to make some money for the Chinese treasury.
Su Fan initially wanted to hand them over to the state, but Elder Mo refused and instead told Su Fan to auction them off.
At midday, the sky was high and the clouds were light!
Su Fan placed the purchased deity behind him and then started his live stream.
As soon as the live stream of the 100% Mirror God was launched on the Yinlang platform, countless eager Chinese netizens flooded in.
"The streamer is finally going live. I feel really bad if I can't watch the streamer's live broadcast all day."
"That's right. Without live streams, I lose my appetite and can only watch the replays."
"The first thing I do every day when I open the app is to check if the streamer has started a live stream."
"..."
At the same time, countless gift effects were displayed.
Airplanes, sports cars, carnivals...
Within just one minute of starting the broadcast, Su Fan's live stream immediately climbed to the top spot on the Yinlang platform.
Meanwhile, the streamers who were broadcasting live were complaining bitterly.
As soon as Su Fan starts a live stream, a large number of viewers in their live stream will be drawn away.
The number of viewers in the live stream will plummet.
Sure enough, the number of viewers in the live stream of a game streamer who used to have 200,000 to 300,000 concurrent viewers and was the runner-up in the world championship has plummeted to less than 100,000.
The fat man's face turned ashen. He cursed under his breath, then decisively ended the broadcast and went to watch Su Fan's live stream.
"As soon as Su Fan started his live stream, our chat room was completely empty!"
"Yeah, his popularity is terrifying."
"There's nothing we can do; after all, he's the streamer who can identify Chinese deities 100% accurately."
"Garlic bird, garlic bird, I'm going to stop streaming and watch Su Fan's stream too."
Su Fan bowed in gratitude as he looked at the screen filled with bullet comments and gift effects.
"That's enough, everyone stop spamming. I didn't start this live stream to identify Chinese deities."
Su Fan's smile stretched to the corners of his mouth.
Upon hearing this, everyone lost interest.
"Hey streamer, what else are you doing on stream if not identifying deities? I bet you're in a room, not some deity's ruins."
"Yeah, streamer, stop messing with us and start identifying the Chinese deities! I'm all ready."
"..."
Su Fan coughed and said, "Everyone, please don't get excited. Although I'm not here to appraise Chinese deities this time, I'm here to auction them off!"
After saying that, Su Fan smiled slightly and revealed the Chinese deity that had been hiding behind him.
Then Su Fan began to introduce the A-level Chinese deity behind him.
"Everyone, today I have brought you a batch of precious Grade A Chinese deity statues, each of which possesses powerful divine power."
"And this time, the auction will be conducted online. Did you all see that special icon at the bottom of the live stream?"
"Click in, verify your identity first, and once you're approved, you can auction off the Chinese deities you want."
"And I will give you a brief introduction to each of these Chinese deities later."
As netizens noticed, a special pattern appeared at the bottom of the live stream.
Netizens instantly went wild, with comments scrolling wildly across the screen.
"Host, tell me which gods are represented!"
"Hurry up and click the link, I've already prepared the money!"
"Holy crap! The Chinese deity being auctioned by the streamer, even though the streamer said it was only A-level, I feel like it has S-level strength!"
Under the expectant gazes of the crowd, Su Fan arrived in front of the first statue of a Chinese deity.
This statue of a deity has a unique shape; his face is narrow and his red shoulders are exposed.
Su Fan cleared his throat and introduced, "This statue of a Chinese deity is the Night Patrol God, a god of the underworld, mainly responsible for patrolling the human world at night and recording good and evil deeds. He can see into the depths of the darkness, leaving no place for those who do evil in the shadows to hide."
As soon as Su Fan finished his introduction, the live chat exploded.
"The Night Wanderer! I think I've seen an introduction to Him in some Chinese deity encyclopedia. He's quite a powerful figure, capable of warding off evil spirits and protecting the home!"
"Upstairs, really? If you're saying that, then I'll have to put it up for auction. I haven't been sleeping well these past few days, I've been having sleep paralysis, and I feel like I'm possessed by some evil thing."
"Start the auction, streamer! I'm determined to win!"
Su Fan smiled slightly and said:
"Everyone! Everyone! Even if you choose another god because of a temporary compromise, I believe that one day you will also have a Chinese god that belongs to you and suits you."
"One day, you too will hear the words that belong to you: Deep affection is better expressed through long companionship, and profound love needs no words!"
"Congratulations on becoming the esteemed guardian of the Chinese deities. May my Chinese deities illuminate your future, career, and love."
"One self, one lover, two parents!"
"Starlight doesn't ask about the traveler's journey, and time doesn't fail those with a heart. May you return still a youth at heart."
"May you learn to fight in the days when you have the gods of China, and may you be victorious in every battle!"
Su Fan adapted a quote he had seen on the Yinlang platform in his previous life and recited it, which immediately stirred up the emotions of everyone in the live stream.
Some people who were initially hesitant to participate in the auction have now decided to take part in it.
"Wow! Where did the host learn such phrases? Hearing them has really excited me, and I'm thinking of bidding on a statue of a Chinese deity through the auction."
"Me too, I'm so excited! I can't resist! I have to take a picture of a Chinese deity to support the streamer."
"Hey you two upstairs, wake up! Look at your bank account balances, and stop thinking about auctioning it off!"
Seeing this, Su Fan pressed his advantage and announced:
"The First Auction of Chinese Deities on the Yinlang Platform..."
"Let's begin!"
"The minimum price for this auction item is 1000 million, and each bid must be at least 100 million higher!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the live stream was instantly flooded with a barrage of bidding messages, and the price of the Night Wanderer in the special pattern kept jumping up and down.
The price of Night Wanderer has skyrocketed, from the initial ten million to over twenty million in the blink of an eye, and it continues to climb.
"No one can take this Chinese deity from me! It's mine!"
"Get out of here, all of you! I'm determined to have this Chinese deity!"
Just then, a special message popped up in the live stream:
"A mystery buyer offers forty million!"
The price caused everyone to gasp in surprise, and the previously frenzied bidding in the chat instantly fell silent for a moment.
"Forty million? That's outrageous!"
"Who is this mysterious buyer? They're so wealthy and powerful."
There was a lot of discussion, but bidding soon resumed, though the rate of price increase slowed down considerably.
Su Fan watched the constantly fluctuating prices and felt secretly delighted.
Just as the price reached 50 million, the mysterious buyer made another move, raising it directly to 60 million.
At this point, most of the bidders chose to give up, leaving only a handful of people still gritting their teeth and persisting.
After several rounds of bidding, the price reached 70 million.
At this point, apart from the mysterious buyer, only one formidable bidder remained.
The two were locked in a stalemate, with each attempt to exceed the other's price being rejected.
Just when everyone thought the fierce bidding would continue, the mysterious buyer suddenly raised the price to 100 million, ending the auction abruptly.
Su Fan looked at the final price and smiled with satisfaction.
