"Mr. Chen, your seat has been arranged. Please come in."
"Yeah, not bad. I brought some men with me, so it should be fine."
"It's okay, it's okay. We are all old customers. Our auction will start soon. Please take a seat early, Mr. Chen."
Looking at the warm hospitality of the waiters at this medium-sized auction, Yan Quan held the delicate "foreign slave girl" in his arms tighter with his right hand.
"You! Bastard..."
Yu Yiyi gritted her teeth and whispered, but her body did not resist anymore, only her face was stained with a light pink.
"Hey! Old Devil Yan, don't go too far!"
Yu Qiu, who was pretending to be a guard behind him, warned in a low voice.
However, Yan Quan didn't pay attention to him, but just saw a group of people coming over.
"Isn't this Chen Shi, Young Master Chen? Why are you still wearing a mask today?
"Alas? You only brought so few people with you today? Especially why did you bring only a little beauty? Didn't you say last time that you would share some with the brothers?"
The leader of the group, a young man in luxurious attire, spoke.
"Hahaha, of course, of course, but everyone is here today for serious business.
It's not appropriate to talk about these romantic things. Let's go somewhere else and spend some time together."
Yan Quan imitated Chen Shi's tone and laughed.
"Tsk tsk, Master Chen, why do you feel different today?"
"Changed...what?"
"Why have you become thinner? Have you lost all your weight with this veiled beauty in your arms? Hahahaha.
Why don't you give this little beauty to us brothers to amuse ourselves?"
A group of people laughed, except for Yan Quan, who was about to get angry as he pulled Yu Yiyi hard.
"Kill them all."
Yu Yiyi in his arms raised her head and whispered to Yan Quan indifferently.
No? Who the hell are you? If I hadn't dragged this living devil to you right now, you would have died countless times. Yan Quan felt helpless, but he could do nothing.
"Ahahaha, it's just that I've been busy with work lately and overworked, it's nothing serious.
You know, the Xuantian Treasure Meeting is coming up, and we all have to act accordingly. Today I'm just here to take a look. Brothers, let's have a good gathering in the future."
Yan Quan quickly dealt with it perfunctorily and left with the time bomb in his arms that was about to explode.
“Cowardly…”
Sitting on the VIP seat, Yu Yiyi spoke with disdain.
"I've tried so hard to pull you along all the way, didn't you say you could pretend?
Also, since you're already here, there's no need to cling to me anymore."
Yan Quan replied, reminding Yu Yiyi who was sitting on him.
"Huh?! You, why didn't you tell me earlier? Humph, I'll settle all the debts I've paid along the way sooner or later."
Yu Yiyi was angry and quickly stood up and stood aside.
"Oh, they're all giving me a hard time. Forget it, let me see what those guys are up to."
Yan Quan muttered to himself, looking at the auction that was about to begin below.
"Dear guests, welcome to the auction at the Baobao Pavilion.
In addition to the three Xuantian Treasures Competition participants for today's grand finale, we've also prepared many secret treasures for auction. Without further ado, let's begin the auction immediately!"
The auction went on as planned. At the beginning, some treasures that were more useful to mid-level cultivators, or rare items, were auctioned. The Xuantian Treasure Club's quota was placed at the end. The purpose of placing it there was to clear out the items at the front.
Although Yan Quan had no interest in those things, in order to avoid being discovered and being too conspicuous, he still symbolically bought some treasures, but they were all for escaping and saving his life.
"Hahahaha, look at Chen Shi, all he takes pictures of are life-saving things.
The higher-ups asked us to come and investigate him, but I don't think it's necessary for us to come in person for such a coward."
In another VIP room, another frivolous man next to the man in front spoke.
"If you have the time, you might as well continue to have fun in my black room."
"The higher-ups sent us here to investigate his recent movements. They must have discovered something. We'll just act accordingly. Do you dare disobey that superior?"
The man in front of him spoke, his face already wearing a serious expression.
"However, if anything unusual is discovered, execution on the spot is permitted.
Then, can't you and I share his extravagance?"
"Oh! Is that so? Hahaha, there aren't many opportunities like this. What you mean is, act first and ask for permission later?"
“…”
Soon, the auction came to an end. There were three spots for participants, and everyone was definitely trying to get the first one, so Yan Quan shocked everyone with his big move and took one in the chaos.
From the second moment on, several people started to challenge Yan Quan. Seeing this situation, Yan Quan had no choice but to change his strategy.
Soon, the auction ended with the last spot being sold.
"What's going on? Why are you only picking up one?"
