The young man waved his hand and smiled: "Lord Seth has such a close relationship with my father, why are you being so polite to me, Zion?"

While Seth was talking to the young Zion, everyone in the venue lowered their voices. Everyone knew their own limitations and stopped bidding for the earth vein crystal fragments.

In the end, the earth vein crystal fragment that Ryan sent to bid was sold for 10,000 Mist Coins from Seth.

Ryan sat quietly in the stands, not interested in the bidding price for this earth vein crystal fragment.

As the auction progressed, the treasures being auctioned also increased from the initial fourth and fifth levels to the sixth level... and even the seventh level.

This made everyone in the auction venue excited, and they shouted out bids regardless of the price.

With the last seventh-level treasure being taken away by the young city lord Zion, the first half of the auction came to a perfect end.

Chief auctioneer Eunice cleared her throat and said, "No."

"Don't blink, sir. What's coming next is something that will drive you crazy."

Eunice's mysterious appearance immediately aroused the interest of everyone in the audience, and they stared at the stands intently.

Ryan, who had learned about the auction items in advance, naturally knew that the next item to be auctioned was "slave", so he was not too surprised.

Still enjoying the massage from the maid and drinking the red wine in her hand.

Eunice covered her mouth and chuckled softly, "Then let's take a look at what this first 'treasure' is."

A gap appeared in the floor of the stands again, and an iron cage rose from the gap, with a young girl in it.

As the girl appeared, the red wine glass in Ryan's hand was instantly crushed by Ryan's grip, and the red wine poured onto Ryan along with the glass scraper.

However, when it was about to fall onto Ryan's clothes, it was fixed in the air by a mysterious force.

Ryan stared at the girl in the iron cage below the stage, frowned, and waved his hand to sweep the spilled liquid aside.

"It's actually her!?" Ryan muttered to himself.

Ryan knew the girl in the cage.

Back in the Secret Realm of Eternal Day, when Joan of Arc of the Church of Light performed the sacrament on Ryan, she was the one holding the basin of water.

The originally lazy Ryan straightened his back instantly and stared at the cage below the stage with sharp eyes.

Before Eunice could tell her about the girl's characteristics and the bidding price, Zion, the young city lord on the third floor, started to attack with a cold face.

"How dare the Red Lion Auction House! They actually openly auctioned off someone from my City Lord's Mansion! Don't they take my City Lord's Mansion seriously?!"

Zion's cold words instantly extinguished the fiery gazes of the people in the audience.

Everyone looked up at Zion and the girl in the cage in surprise.

Zion's words also surprised Eunice.

What is going on?

Someone from the City Lord’s Mansion?

The president didn’t tell me?

Eunice smiled awkwardly and said, "Master Zion, is there any misunderstanding here?"

"The treasures and slaves being auctioned at this auction have all been investigated. Did you make a mistake?"

Zion stood up from his chair. The kindness he had just shown when talking to the Sword Saint Seth disappeared, replaced by majesty and coldness.

"Are you saying that I... have seen it wrong? Do you think I am blind?"

Eunice was frightened by Zion's pressure and took a few steps back, quickly waving her hands to indicate that she did not mean that.

The temperature in the auction hall dropped by three points as Zion got angry.

Just as the atmosphere was about to drop to zero, President Jeffrey slowly walked out from behind the scenes, protecting Eunice behind him, and gave Zion an apologetic smile.

"Young City Lord, please calm down. These slaves were obtained from bounty hunters and slave traders. It's impossible to clearly identify their origins."

"Since you are from the City Lord's Mansion, then I will first apologize to you, Young City Lord."

"I'll open the cage right away. I'll also give you all some apology gifts after the auction."
