"Where's the money?"
Gu Ruoyun calmly raised her eyebrows as she asked.
"This..." Liu Ting hesitated, "Three billion gold coins is not a small sum so that guest will need some time to gather the money. Please wait for a moment, my lord."
Wait?
Gu Ruoyun raised her eyebrows. How could she possibly wait?
After all, Ye Lan was the one who had purchased the spiritual weapon. She had borrowed the power of the Ancient Divine Pagoda to obscure her appearance but a Martial Supreme like Ye Lan could easily see through her disguise.
"It's said that every member who enters the auction needs to pay a certain amount of down payment, and this down payment adds up to about half of the price. Coupled with the income of your auction house in the past, paying me three billion gold coins in advance shouldn't be a big deal."
Liu Ting fell silent. After a long pause, he steeled his heart and raised his head, "Alright, I, Liu Ting, will make the decision today. I'll pay you first."
The person in front of me is an esteemed guest who can produce a spiritual weapon for auction. I need to please him no matter what. Even if Lord Yun Luo finds out about this, he probably won't blame me.
Liu Ting paid Gu Ruoyun's bill at the thought of this. Once she had received the gold coins, Gu Ruoyun turned around and left the rear hall without looking back.
...
At this moment, Ye Lan and Yun Luo were chatting and laughing outside the rear hall when they saw the departing figure. He did not know why but he felt that the figure was very familiar. However, he did not think too much about it and walked in.
"Liu Ting, has the guest who had brought the spiritual weapon for auction arrived?" Yun Luo asked warmly with a smile on his face.
"Ah?"
Liu Ting was stunned, "She just left."
"What?"
Ye Lan was shocked and hurriedly chased after her. However, the green figure was nowhere to be seen on the long walkway. He could not help but feel extremely regretful, "It's all my fault, I was too late!"
Yun Luo smiled gently and comforted Ye Lan.
"Ye Lan, don't worry. You haven't paid the money yet. That mysterious person will return sooner or later."
"That's true."
Ye Lan nodded and walked into the hall. He did not even raise his eyelids as he said, "Kid, call me when that mysterious person has returned."
Liu Ting's face instantly turned red. If I'm not mistaken, Lord Yun Luo had called this old man as Ye Lan! In other words, he was the most powerful person in the Banished Lands, the Master of the Ye Clan?
When he thought of this, his heart suddenly tightened and he stammered, "Lord Yun Luo, Senior … Senior Ye, I've already paid the bill for that … That guest, she … She's already left."
"What?"
Ye Lan was enraged and wanted nothing more than to slap this damned brat to death.
"What did you just say? Can you repeat it for me? "
"I …"
Liu Ting was so scared that he couldn't speak at all. He stammered, and his body couldn't help but tremble.
Yun Luo rolled his eyes and said, "Liu Ting was doing this for the sake of my auction house, so he didn't do anything wrong. Our auction house does have a rule where we help guests with urgent matters settle the bill first. Old man, since you're so interested in that mysterious person, you just have to ask Yun Luo what she looks like. With the Ye Family's influence, how could they not be able to find her?"
"That's true!" Ye Lan nodded in agreement. Only now did he realize that he had been too hot-tempered. After some thought, he smiled and spoke to Liu Ting in an amiable manner, "Hehe, kid, describe the mysterious man's appearance to me now."
