Taking a tenth of the profits is outrageous... Qi Yu hesitated for a moment, but still agreed.
"accept."
"Okay, this is your pass to the auction house, and it can also be used for bidding." The guard handed over a small white token.
Qi Yu took the small plaque and followed the signs into the main hall of the auction house.
The auction house was already quite full. Besides those who had paid spirit stones to enter and were sitting in the main hall, there were also some people with private rooms. They didn't have to squeeze into the main hall; they could stay on the second floor, where the view was better. They only needed to select the items they wanted and have their servants bid on them.
On the second floor, Zhu Que, dressed in crimson robes, noticed the petite woman. He sat in the side room, watching Qi Yu, who was looking around in the main hall, with great interest.
"Master?" The black-clad man kneeling behind Zhu Que asked in confusion, noticing that he seemed to be suddenly drawn to something.
Zhu Que said, "Continue."
The man in black said, "Recently, there has been a sudden increase in the number of demons. I wonder what tricks they have up their sleeves. Should my men investigate further?"
Zhu Que hummed in agreement and waved his hand, "Go ahead."

A servant wearing a silver mask carried a wooden tray filled with various kinds of wine. Qi Yu casually picked up a glass; it was a sweet fruit wine, smooth and mellow on the palate.
Serving wine before the auction might get the guests drunk and lead them to bid higher prices. The people behind Yinhua Market are quite shrewd in business.
The auction house suddenly went dark, and a beam of light shone directly in front of it. A man wearing a dazzling silver robe and a silver mask spread his arms wide and said passionately, "Welcome to Yinhua Auction House. Today's auction is hosted by me. Yinhua Auction House is fair and impartial. All goods will be won by the highest bidder. Bidding is welcome."
"Today's first item up for auction—a Grade 4 Foundation Establishment Pill!"
