Ye Ling was simply too lazy to deal with the overbearing attitude of the Shui Ye, and continued to walk forward.
However, the boss gave a subtle signal to a few of Shui Ye's subordinates nearby, indicating that they should act after leaving the ancient town.
Ye Ling and his two companions continued to stroll around the small city. Although the ancient town was not large, it was very prosperous, and each place had its own unique stall, making it even more lively.
"Boss, why didn't you teach that Shui Ye a lesson just now!" Ye Jiu asked sowhat puzzled.
Ye Ling shook his head, "This ancient town is not as simple as it seems on the surface. Nearby, I faintly feel the presence of many powerful auras. These people must be experts. If we were to make a move, I'm afraid we would be at a disadvantage!"
"Oh, so that's how it is. But, boss, is that Jade Pendant really that important to you?" Ye Jiu asked again.
Ye Ling did not answer but just looked ahead. The crowd was surging, densely packed. When they walked closer, it turned out that there was an auction being held in the ancient town.
"Hello, sir, if you would like to enter the auction, you need to pay five hundred yen per person!" A sweet-looking girl walked up to Ye Ling and asked with a smile.
Hearing this, Ye Ling clicked his tongue secretly. This auction was really good at making money, so many people, it was simply a huge profit!
"Let's go!" Ye Ling walked towards the inside, but when he realized there was no movent behind him, he turned around and saw Gao Quan looking at the beautiful girl with lustful eyes.
Seeing this scene, Ye Ling imdiately felt a sense of frustration.
"Beauty, may I have the honor of dining with you this evening?" Gao Quan asked the girl with a charming smile.
The girl showed no shyness at all after hearing this. It seed she was quite used to it, and with a coquettish smile, she said, "Sir, for ten thousand yen, I'll be yours tonight."
Gao Quan instantly lost interest, shrugged helplessly, followed Ye Ling up, and said in annoyance, "Turns out she's a prostitute!"
Entering the auction, Ye Ling looked at the scene inside. The venue was very grand, with the entire space being round. The central area was filled with tables and chairs and teapots and cups.
The place was filled with people, almost all the seats were occupied, and it was completely packed.
It seed, this auction had quite a number of attendees.
In a corner of the middle, there sat several noblen in gorgeous attire, surrounded by so burly n, all looking arrogantly at the auction stage.
Among them, Ye Ling recognized so familiar faces, the people of the Shui Ye family, all known to Ye Ling.
They also noticed Ye Ling and his two companions, their eyes brightened, and they imdiately showed a mocking smile, making a throat-slitting gesture towards Ye Ling.
Their intent to provoke was clear.
Ye Ling sneered, then sat directly in a corner seat, but his mind was occupied with other thoughts.
Since the people of the Shui Ye family dared to co, they must pay the price!
Watching Ye Ling sit down, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of Shui Ye's mouth: "Hehe, let's see how you escape this ti!"
There were also so very arrogant people in the venue who did not wear masks at all.
Clearly, they were very confident about their identity.
From the conversations around him, Ye Ling learned that they were people from the six major families!
The strength of these six major families was very strong. Their families possessed a large number of experts. Their strength was definitely not to be underestimated.
If there was a chance, he would have them killed, Ye Ling thought secretly and determinedly.
"Alright, friends, welco to this auction!" A sweet-voiced, radiant young woman stepped onto the stage and flirtatiously smiled at the audience.
"Hello everyone, my na is Yang Liu, and I am in charge of the auction. Welco to this event, and now, I declare that the auction begins." After Yang Liu finished her speech, it imdiately excited everyone.
Yang Liu's face carried a professional smile as she continued, "First, please allow to introduce the rules of this auction."
"As you all know, our auction house adheres to strict rules and regulations, we all have the right to bid for anything."
"Of course, if anyone wishes to bid, please offer your price. We have dedicated staff to record bids and proceed with the auction!"
"Alright, without further ado, please bring out the first item for auction, snake gall grass!"
As Yang Liu spoke, a staff mber ca forward from behind, holding a fist-sized red fruit in his hand, its skin smooth, giving it a mysterious yet eerie appeal.
"Snake gall grass is primarily used as an ingredient in dicine paste made from snake gallbladder, which can remove snake poison and enhance the physique of cultivators, and its effects are very good!"
"Now, the starting bid for this snake gall grass is two hundred thousand Japanese yen, with each bid incrent not less than five thousand Japanese yen. The auction starts now!"
At the ntion of the starting price by Yang Liu, a wave of whispers broke out around her.
This snake gall grass has a starting price of two hundred thousand Japanese yen, which is considered very expensive.
"I bid three hundred thousand!" At this mont, a man sitting in the front row spoke.
His two bodyguards behind him watched the surroundings with icy stares.
So recognized him, this man was the son of the Da Tianxiong family, Tian Xiong.
Behind Tian Xiong stood four bodyguards, all dressed in black and with katanas hanging at their waists—clearly, their skills were extraordinary, sent by the Da Tianxiong family to ensure his safety.
When Tian Xiong made his bid, the others imdiately fell silent.
Everyone understood that the Da Tianxiong family was not an easy opponent; competing against them in bidding was tantamount to courting death.
Yang Liu's expression changed slightly after hearing Tian Xiong's words.
In her estimate, this batch of snake gall grass could sell for five hundred thousand Japanese yen, but now with Tian Xiong's interference, it could only sell for three hundred thousand!
Yang Liu's face showed embarrassnt, as those attending this auction were either wealthy or noble.
They certainly didn't want to lose this opportunity to make a fortune by offending a powerful entity!
"Three hundred thousand for the first ti, three hundred thousand for the second ti."
Seeing no one else bidding, Yang Liu took a deep breath, and just as she was about to hamr down, suddenly a voice echoed in the room, "Three hundred fifty thousand!"
The mont the statent was made, everyone was shocked and turned to look toward the source of the voice, only to see it was the young man who had been sitting in the back corner who shouted!
"Dammit, is that kid crazy? To compete with the Da Tianxiong family over an item, he truly has no fear of death!"
"Exactly, this foolhardy young man is seeking his own death!"
