Chen Xiao and his companion disappeared into the auction house.
On the street behind them, a few figures appeared from the shadows.
Among them, a shifty-eyed peddler could not help but frown.
"This brat suddenly entered the Wan Xiang Auction House. Could it be that he discovered that we were following him?"
"Impossible! Even if it's the Yuan Dan Pill Realm, without careful investigation, the possibility of discovering us is close to zero! "
"It's probably just a coincidence. After entering the Wanxiang Auction House, it's not convenient for me to make a move. But it doesn't matter. Send someone to follow him, and we'll keep an eye on him from the outside! "
After exchanging glances, they nodded slightly and retreated back into the shadows.
Only the shifty-eyed peddler's figure suddenly disappeared, as if he had completely merged with the air. Then, he walked towards the auction house.
"Stinking brat, you are obviously a young master, and you still f * cking pretend to be poor in front of me. I have never been played like this before!"
If Chen Xiao and Xia Churou were here …
They would discover that this peddler was the one who was selling the guidebook when they first entered the city!
In fact, most of the rats that were able to roam freely in the County City without being annihilated, apart from having the ability to survive, most of them had their own background.
Qin Tong was one of them.
And Qin Tong's backer was the Wanxiang Auction House, a steward surnamed Qin!
The moment he stepped through the door of the auction house, a badge on Qin Tong's chest lit up. An array swept across his body, but there was no alarm.
"Uncle's badge is indeed effective!"
Qin Tong was slightly delighted in his heart.
The effect of this badge was merely a pass.
He could freely enter and exit the auction house, so that Qin Tong could contact that uncle manager at any time.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to hide from the auction house's array formation with just his concealment technique.
Of course, no one was allowed to enter the auction house's confidential area.
"Let's first determine where this brat is, then contact Uncle and screw this brat over!"
Thinking up to here, a trace of a sinister smile flashed on Qin Tong's face.
According to Qin Tong's estimation …
On Chen Xiao, there were at least a few hundred mid-grade Primordial Stones.
In fact, there was a possibility that there were even more!
Meanwhile.
In an office of the auction house, a middle-aged man suddenly narrowed his eyes.
"What is this kid Qin Tong doing here?"
But then, Qin Xiu's eyes lit up and his breathing quickened, "A young master from another place, without any guards, but with at least a few hundred mid-grade Primordial Stones?"
One had to know …
As the manager of the auction house, Qin Xiu's monthly salary was only twenty-five thousand low-grade primordial stones.
If he didn't earn some extra income, how could his days be as glorious as they are now?
"A foreign Young Master spending extravagantly and without restraint. One look and I can tell you're a brainless idiot …" Qin Xiu sneered, "It's up to you. If you don't squeeze out all your Primordial Stones, don't even think about leaving the auction house!"
He recently found a new girlfriend. "
"My expenses are really a bit tight. Coincidentally, this brat is here. If I don't slaughter this brat, who else can I slaughter?"
…
The other side.
"Senior Yao, you're here to …"
After stepping into the Wanxiang Auction House, Xia Churou was still confused.
Why did he suddenly come to the auction house?
"I came here to shake off some of my followers … Hmm?"
Halfway through his answer, Chen Xiao suddenly revealed a trace of surprise. He saw a slightly familiar figure sneaking into the auction house.
The auction house's guards had indifferent expressions. Obviously, they didn't notice Qin Tong's entrance.
And the auction house's barrier merely flickered slightly, and then there was no more reaction.
"This guy is a bit interesting." Chen Xiao raised his eyebrows, "This level of concealment ability shouldn't be able to hide from the auction house's barrier. But now there's no reaction from the barrier. Could it be because …"
An unexpected but reasonable guess suddenly leaped into Chen Xiao's mind.
The smile on the corner of his mouth unknowingly became even wider.
"I really didn't expect that a random auction house would actually be this guy's backing?"
Speechlessly shaking his head, Chen Xiao's gaze slightly moved as he looked towards the welcoming lady walking over.
"Hello, two guests. May I ask if you're here to participate in the auction, or do you have auction items that you want to consign for sale?"
Zi Luan walked gracefully, her eyes were like water, and her willowy eyebrows curved into a smile as she looked towards Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao nodded expressionlessly, "Consign for sale first, then auction."
"Then please follow me. I'm called Zi Luan, the two of you can directly call me by my name."
Zi Luan lightly smiled as her delicate body swayed like a willow leaf, and she led the two of them to the auction room.
In the auction room, there would be specialized appraisers that would appraise the value of the treasures and then confirm the auction price.
Practically every auction house would have a similar process.
"This kid is here to consign his treasures?"
The eyes of Qin Tong who was silently following behind instantly lit up, "Since it's like that, I'll just let Uncle suppress his price, and then secretly arrange for a spy to buy all the treasures this kid has!"
The existence of a spy in an auction house was basically an unspoken rule.
Normally speaking, as long as it wasn't too excessive, most of the guests would turn a blind eye to it.
For an outsider like Chen Xiao who had no one to rely on, even if he was really cheated, very few people would pay attention to it.
Unknowingly, the gaze with which Qin Tong looked at Chen Xiao was as if he was looking at a big fat sheep.
But right at this moment, Chen Xiao's voice suddenly sounded out.
"Young Miss Zi Luan, is that fellow hiding in the corner also a staff member of your auction house?"
A voice that carried a trace of doubt sounded at first glance, and it really seemed to be a fourteen or fifteen year old youth that was questioning the auction house's receptionist young lady.
However, when Zi Luan heard this, she couldn't help but be stunned.
Subsequently, her beautiful face abruptly changed, and she immediately let out a low shout.
"Where are the guards? Take down the infiltrator! "
Practically in an instant, Zi Luan realized that someone had infiltrated the auction house!
If it was said that the infiltrator wasn't discovered by the guests, then it would more or less be fine. But now the guests had already clearly pointed it out …
No matter how exactly Chen Xiao discovered it, the infiltrator must be captured!
Otherwise, how could the guests believe that the auction house had the ability to protect the safety of the auction items?
"What …"
Qin Tong's entire body shuddered, and he was just about to flee outside when four boundless pressures suddenly descended.
Those were four auction house guards that cultivated the same cultivation technique. The instant they attacked, the four attacks joined into one, and it was like a large net that instantly nailed Qin Tong to the ground.
The violent vibrations shook and dispersed Qin Tong's concealed state.
"There really is someone!"
The four guards exclaimed in a low voice, and their expressions became even fiercer.
"Take down this rat, we must clearly ask him how he infiltrated!"
"Pffft ~ ~ ~"
Qin Tong opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.
His entire body felt as if it had fallen into an ice cellar.
