Tang Ling, are you in the black market? "Right after Jian Fei's words subsided, a voice came from behind him.
Jian Fei did not answer. Instead, he turned around to the person sitting at the big office table.
Half of the super vicious beast's bone was on the table, the faint golden light shining on the person's face.
Tang Ling had a photographic memory. If he was there, he would have felt that the face was familiar because the person was one of the important figures that Tang Ling had met on the day of the sea treaty — Lord Aurora Polaris.
No one knew what the mysterious Lord Aurora Polaris had to do with the Sochi black market. However, he was indeed sitting in the biggest office on the top floor of the ancient castle located on Mount Porti of the Sochi black market. Only the absolute higher-ups of the Sochi black market were allowed to enter.
Therefore, Aurora Polaris's identity was obvious. He was the real higher-up of the Ocean Flow black market or even the big boss behind the scenes.
Indeed, Sochi black market did not have a real owner. Its owner was a representative sent by the higher-ups of the black market.
Other than the absolute higher-ups of the Ocean Flow black market, who else could have the right to sit in this office?
However, it was unexpected that the real boss of the Floating Ice black market would hang out with the absolute higher-ups of the Ocean Flow black market. There was a huge competition between them, so shouldn't they be enemies?
"Why are you looking at me?" Aurora Polaris raised a curious brow.
"Who sent the bone?" Jian Fei asked.
"Cyril," Aurora Polaris answered straightforwardly and curled his lips into a smile.
"That's right. Are you playing dumb with me? "Jian Fei also smiled.
Aurora Polaris did not say anything else. Instead, he caressed the half of the super vicious beast's bone and squinted his eyes.
"I'm curious. What did this kid run into during the short time I was away? He even got his hands on a super vicious beast's bone. "Jian Fei sat down comfortably on the sofa behind the office table as he looked at Aurora Polaris.
"Isn't that what you want?!" Aurora Polaris stopped caressing the vicious beast's bone and looked at Jian Fei.
"No, no, no. We shouldn't have a side, right?" Jian Fei grinned cheekily.
"Yes, we shouldn't have a stance. Be it the Floating Ice Black Market or the Oceanic Black Market, both of them have their own silent stand. "Aurora Polaris leaned back on the chair lazily.
"Hehe." Jian Fei was noncommittal. He then said in a low voice, "But no matter what, they are foreshadowing left by Tang Feng."
No one would have thought Tang Feng would allow someone as sensitive as you to be the owner of Floating Ice Black Market.
"Shut up. My identity isn't sensitive at all. I've already, already … "Aurora Polaris's voice became deeper and he didn't continue.
"Alright, the auction is about to begin. It's time to bring this Direbeast bone to the scene. I'm looking forward to the show that's going to happen next. " Jian Fei stood up and looked at Polar Light with a faint smile. "If you're interested, you can tell me about Tang Long's current situation."
"They're going to the ancestral shrine. Do you think I would know?" Aurora Polaris denied it immediately.
Jian Fei didn't say much after hearing that. He just smiled meaningfully and left the office.

Auction House Zero.
The most public secret of Sochi's black market.
Public meant that everyone knew about its existence, but its exact location was a secret that most people did not know.
Because Auction House Zero was about to open, Sochi's black market welcomed a frenzied few hours. Almost every shop's sales reached a peak, leading to a frenzied buying spree.
However, the frenzy only lasted for a few hours. When it was almost 8 pm, the frenzy slowly died down.
This was because the big shots who seemed to have endless money in their pockets had mysteriously disappeared one by one. Even the bodyguards, servants, and even family members they had brought had returned to various luxurious hotels in the black market and began to quietly wait for the big shots who had participated in the auction to return.
So, where exactly was Auction House Zero?
When Tang Ling entered an exclusive lift with the crystal card in his hand, he wondered if the lift was underground.
After all, Sochi's black market had almost hollowed out an entire mountain range. Shouldn't a place as important as Auction House Zero be deeper and more secretive?
However, to Tang Ling's surprise, after he entered the lift, it did not go down at all. Instead, it went up rapidly.
Just when Tang Ling was wondering if Auction House Zero was on the mountain, the lift door opened.
What appeared before Tang Ling's eyes was a huge platform at the waist of the mountain.
Tang Ling did not know whether the platform was naturally formed or man-made. It looked strange as if a giant hand had suddenly stretched out from the mountain and was hovering in the air.
There were no buildings on the huge platform. Instead, there were things that looked like tricycles from the old civilization that were parked neatly.
However, the trishaws did not have wheels. Instead, they had a pair of wings.
This must be the tallest mountain on Sochi Island. Therefore, from the waist of the mountain, Tang Ling could already see half of Sochi Island and the vast sea beyond the island.
The mountain breeze was strong, causing Tang Ling's clothes to flutter, but he did not forget the manners of an eastern noble. Even in such a strange environment, he maintained a calm and elegant smile while his steps were calm and steady.
The guide brought Tang Ling to a trishaw and left. A man in the Sochi Island uniform came down from the trishaw and said to Tang Ling, "Dear esteemed guest, please show us your invitation letter or high-class membership card again."
Are they that strict? Without batting an eyelid, Tang Ling took out the membership card that he had verified countless times in order to participate in the so-called King's Bone auction.
'Is this place also using 3D holographic projection technology?' Tang Ling wondered when the guide verified the membership card.
However, things went beyond Tang Ling's expectations again. After verifying the crystal card, the staff invited Tang Ling into the tricycle.
So, I'm attending the auction in the trishaw? Tang Ling might be smart, but he was not an imaginative person. Another thought popped up in his mind, but it turned out that he was wrong again.
The trishaw was a real aircraft. The two wings were not just for show either. After Tang Ling got in, it did not even need a run-up and rose into the sky rapidly.
"Is … Is Auction Zero not in Sochi Black Market?" Tang Ling's curiosity was piqued this time.
The small aircraft was moving very fast. In less than half a minute, Sochi Island had turned into a small black dot. The aircraft flew through the thin layer of clouds and flew up around 300 meters before it stopped in the sky.
Tang Ling saw many similar small aircraft hovering in the sky.
Some of the aircraft were strangely lined up in a row, but Tang Ling could see that there was no one in the aircraft.
Where were they? Where did they go?
After all, this aircraft was very small. The enclosed space at the front was the cockpit, and there were only two seats at the back.
While Tang Ling was puzzled, a small window opened up in the wall between the cockpit and the back.
"Dear customer, please show me your membership card again. I would like to request permission to park the aircraft." The pilot's face appeared in the small window as he asked for Tang Ling's membership card again.
Tang Ling passed the card over and the pilot took it away. He did not even tell Tang Ling what he was trying to do.
More than a minute later, Tang Ling suddenly felt the light outside the window start to distort.
He turned around instinctively and saw that less than 200 meters away from him, the azure sky started to distort as the light started to distort.
Amidst the changing lights, a gigantic flyer that looked like two interlocked plates appeared in front of Tang Ling's eyes.
The neatly arranged, unmanned small aircraft that he saw before were not hovering in the air at all. Instead, they were parked on a long mechanical corridor that extended from the disc-like aircraft. It looked like a port.
Tang Ling was not an ignorant teenager. He had seen a lot in the past year and his reading had helped him accumulate a lot of knowledge.
He even felt that it was hard for him to be shocked anymore. At least, he would not be as shocked as he used to be.
However, he had overestimated himself. When he saw the aircraft and the scene, Tang Ling found it indescribable. His fluctuating emotions even affected him to the point that he forgot to maintain his expression and showed his astonishment.
If it was any other aircraft, it would have been fine. Why did it have to be this aircraft? The old civilization had recorded countless UFOs. Although they were called unidentified flying objects on the surface, weren't they considered to be the aircraft of the aliens?
Until now, even though the Purple Moon era had appeared, Tang Ling still did not want to think about the aliens. Tang Ling still did not want to think about the aliens. His worldview had not expanded to the universe yet.
Tang Ling did not know how to describe it. All he felt was that his worldview was shattered when he saw the aircraft. Any normal person would have linked the aircraft to the UFOs that the old civilization had recorded. If they were connected, what did it mean?
"Dear customer …" It was then that the pilot's voice interrupted Tang Ling.
Even though Tang Ling was still a little absent-minded, he managed to maintain his composure and accepted the membership card that the pilot returned to him.
With the permission, the small aircraft quickly flew towards the mechanical corridor. Tang Ling's heart was filled with anticipation. He was looking forward to the auction hall!
