"By the way, why are you coming out so late? Were you beaten up?" Ye Haochuan asked, puzzled.
"I’ve always been the one to beat others up, when would I ever let others beat ?" Zhu Wenjing said proudly.
"If you weren’t healing, then why are you the last to co out?"
"Why should I tell you?"
Zhu Wenjing pouted, straightened up, and took the lead to walk towards the auction house. After walking a few steps, she turned back and huffed, "Hurry up, what are you standing there for? Don’t you know the auction is about to start?"
"Hahaha..."
Langfan, Ke Yan, Hu Zhong, and Su Zehao couldn’t help but burst into laughter upon hearing her words.
This girl, she has no sha being the last one to arrive and still being so righteous.
Ye Haochuan shook his head and followed. He knew Zhu Wenjing’s temperant well. He was aware that if he argued with her, he could forget about attending the auction.
"Where did this stray dog co from, barking all over the place, seriously lacking manners!"
At this mont, a contemptuous voice ca from behind them, and everyone turned around to see a young cultivator at Core Formation Peak standing there.
This young cultivator was wearing white clothes, with a defiant expression, one might think he was so noble young master on a trip.
"Mind your own business!"
Langfan frowned at the youth with so disgust. Ever since Ye Haochuan saved him from the Ye Family, he slowly regained so of his forr self.
"Hmph!"
The young man snorted coldly, stepped forward, and then, like a tide, the Core Formation Peak’s aura pressed towards Langfan and the others.
Hmm hmph~
Langfan and the other four simultaneously groaned and retreated.
"What’s going on?"
Just then, Ye Haochuan appeared and positioned himself between the young man and the group, and the aura that was troubling Langfan and the others vanished without a trace.
"Ye Haochuan?"
Seeing Ye Haochuan’s face, the young man’s expression changed quickly from arrogance to vigilance and fear.
"Damn, such bad luck to run into this bastard!" The young man cursed quietly and without saying more, turned and left.
Huh? What’s with this guy, could it be he’s seen my extraordinary charm and felt ashad by comparison?
Ye Haochuan pondered, confused, as he watched the young man leave.
"You guys okay? If you’re fine, let’s get moving!"
Ye Haochuan didn’t know the young man, so despite the strange behavior, he didn’t pay it much mind and led the group after Zhu Wenjing.
Zhu Wenjing, having gone ahead, reached the auction first and was queuing at the entrance. Upon seeing Ye Haochuan and the others, she waved them over.
"Wenjing, take your ti in line. We’re going ahead."
Ye Haochuan smirked and waved at Zhu Wenjing, heading towards the ornate but empty VIP passage.
"Ah! Ye Haochuan, you big jerk, you had a VIP jade token, and didn’t tell , making line up so hard here!"
Zhu Wenjing lunged forward, tugging at Ye Haochuan’s clothes, pouting. "Say, how are you going to make it up to ?"
Damn! This girl really is sothing else!
Ye Haochuan, speechless, didn’t say much; he directly reached over and pulled Zhu Wenjing into a hug, then took out the jade token labeled Eleven from Old Huang and walked into the VIP passage.
Behind him, Langfan, Ke Yan, Hu Zhong, and Su Zehao followed, covering their mouths. Their expressions were as colorful as could be.
"Let go of ... Ye Haochuan, let go!"
Only Zhu Wenjing, blushing furiously, felt her heart racing, unable to muster any strength.
Right now, her limbs felt weak, and she just let herself blush, mumbling softly without resisting as Ye Haochuan carried her into the No. 11 private box.
"Alright, you can rest here for a while."
In the box, Ye Haochuan placed Zhu Wenjing on the sofa and then moved to a side with a one-way transparent glass to look outside at the auction.
"Wenjing, your face is so red!"
Behind Ye Haochuan, Ke Yan quietly approached Zhu Wenjing and whispered in her ear.
"Ah!"
Zhu Wenjing gasped lightly and quickly covered her mouth, glancing around like a thief before feigning nonchalance and whispering, "Ke Yan sis, what are you talking about, I... I need to use the restroom, not talking to you."
With that, Zhu Wenjing shot up and dashed toward the box’s restroom, slamming the door shut with a thud, not opening it for a long ti.
"Hahaha..."
Langfan and the others hid by the door, covering their mouths in laughter. They could see through Zhu Wenjing’s feelings but chose to stay silent.
Occasionally, Ke Yan would tease Zhu Wenjing with so suggestive words, watching her reactions that were completely different from her usual self.
Soon enough, the ti reached nine o’clock, and the auctioneer’s voice resonated throughout the auction house.
"Ladies and gentlen, welco to the auction hosted by Thousand Treasures Pavilion. Today, we will be auctioning sothing unprecedented with magical effects. I believe you will all be amazed!"
Harnessing the power of spiritual energy, the auctioneer’s fervent voice spread across the venue, bringing instant silence.
"Of course, aside from this treasure, we also have other items that are either extrely precious or rare, but we at Thousand Treasures Pavilion guarantee that these items are of the highest quality and absolutely authentic!"
The auctioneer thumped his chest and continued, "I hope everyone finds what they’re looking for today. At Thousand Treasures Pavilion, we respect every guest and serve with all our heart."
"However, if anyone dares to cause trouble here, we at Thousand Treasures Pavilion are not to be trifled with!"
With that said, a terrifying Nascent Soul Late Stage aura briefly descended upon the auction room, but it targeted no one specifically.
The aura was fleeting, not leaving anyone with any ill feelings.
