Outside the Thousand Wealth Chamber, the crowd had yet to depart. Everyone was waiting eagerly to see the Legendary Artifact.
But after a couple of minutes, the Governor Mansion’s chief maid rushed out.
What is going on?
Why would the Chief Maid rush out?
Is there sothing wrong with the auction?!
I knew it! The Thousand Wealth Chamber was nothing but a crook. How could they have any Legendary Artifact?
I agree. I think the Chief Maid is trying to report their evil actions to the governor.
The Chief Maid did not care about the crowd’s chatter behind her. She rushed into the carriage and departed at a swift speed.
The speed of her departure was so urgent that it left the crowd stunned.
Why does it look like the chief maid was trying to escape?
I also think so. Her face was filled with urgency.
While the crowd was discussing the sudden departure of the Governor Mansion’s Chief Maid, they saw an Elder of the Nine Mountain Sect rushing out.
This ti, the elder did not depart but moved away from the crowd. His face was full of urgency as he took out the voice talisman.
Looking at him, the crowd was thrown into another round of confusion.
What is really going on?
Why are these powerful experts rushing out?
Just then, the elders from the Wind Spirit Sect and Frost Moon Sect ca out, following the sa action as the Nine Mountain Sect.
Silence!
Everywhere was silent like a graveyard. The crowd widened their eyes in disbelief. Forget about the Thousand Wealth Chamber being a phony.
This was beyond it.
Sothing was definitely going on.
Among the crowd, whispers spread as everyone was trying to find out what was really going on.
Unfortunately, no one could tell what was going on with these powerful forces.
anwhile, inside the auction room. The Golden Pavilion leader had just returned from the small room where he completed his paynt for the common grade Lightning Wind Carriage.
His face was etched with pride. Although he only managed to buy the common grade, he was not disheartened.
Let’s see if I can get my hands on the Standard Grade... he thought with confidence.
As long as he could get his hands on the Standard Grade, he could make a lot of profit if he were to sell it during the Assembly Summit.
However, he froze, and the proud smile on his face disappeared. Inside the auction, a thick, deafening tension hung in the air.
All the prideful upper echelon wore solemn expressions as they all tried to form alliances with others.
So were sending ssages with their voice talismans with urgency.
"What in heaven is going on?" he wondered out loud.
"My Lord..." a middle-aged man called with a trembling voice.
"What?" he snapped, looking at him.
The man pointed in a particular direction. Feeling irritated, he turned and followed the man’s finger.
There, on the other side of the room, was a magnificent carriage, pulsating with an otherworldly energy.
His breath quickened as he forcefully swallowed the lump in his throat. "I-Is that..."
"What a terrifying aura?!" one of them exclaid.
"Do you see that? Four Tier-3 Jade Fang Lizards!" a voice muttered, trembling with shock.
The Golden Pavilion leader was too stunned to care about their words. He could not fathom how the Thousand Wealth Chamber could produce such a heavenly carriage.
Finally, he recovered from his shock. "Now, I understand..."
"Ah! Let’s return to our seats. There is going to be a good show to watch," he muttered and grinned.
Although he planned to fight for the Standard Grade before, now he knew he stood no chance.
Heck! Most of the people in the hall did not stand a chance.
His prideful smile returned to his face as he returned to his seat. Suddenly, he turned and looked in the Broken Moon Consortium’s direction.
"I hope your Broken Moon Consortium wins this round," he chuckled, placing both hands behind his back and sauntering to his seat with fanfare.
Looking at him, the Broken Moon Consortium mbers were furious. They gnashed their teeth in anger. How could they not know the bastard was taunting them?
I guess we lost to them this ti around, the leader of the Broken Moon Consortium thought.
The loss left a bad taste, but there was nothing she could do.
On the podium, Sun Na watched the scene before her with a bright smile. This was the pride of the Thousand Wealth Chamber.
The carriages they were all dying to get were made by the chamber. Many would have thought the carriage would be difficult to make, but they were wrong.
To the chamber, it was as easy as making any common artifact.
Suddenly, her Spirit Link vibrated. She took it out and checked the notification.
Without any change in her expression, she returned her Spirit Link to her storage pouch and looked at the audience.
"Please, everyone return to your seat. We’re going to start the bidding for the Standard Grade Lightning Wind Carriage."
The chaotic atmosphere disappeared, and everyone returned to their seats. But this ti around, they sat in factions.
Just to stand a chance, they ford alliances among themselves.
The five powerful clans sat together, their faces brimming with confidence.
A couple of feet from them, the various hall masters of the occupational guild and hall sat together.
Behind them, the smaller and middle clans banded together. For the rchants, they also banded together.
The only exceptions were the four powerful chambers and pavilion.
Each maintained their seat.
With this formation, every alliance was full of confidence.
As for those that went outside, no one cared. They were even hoping they would not return on ti.
"Now, for the—"
Before Sun Na could complete her statent, a middle-aged man entered the auction room.
Around him was a horrifying aura that suffocated everyone inside the room.
He stood at the entrance for a mont and shifted his gaze to the carriage in the distance.
His stoic expression faltered, and a faint smile tugged at the corner of his lips.
"So, this is the legendary carriage?" he muttered.
Sun Na raised her head with so difficulty and said coldly, "Are you here to cause trouble or what?"
"Hahaha. No, Miss, I’m here for the auction," the man replied and withdrew his aura.
"Huh!"
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Why do I feel the governor has gotten stronger?" the He clan master muttered.
The other clan masters also nodded.
Sun Na looked at the governor and was deeply shocked. She did not expect the governor to co personally.
While the audience was talking about the sudden arrival of the governor, three people entered the auction room one after the other.
The aura around them was thicker and more suffocating than the governors.
