Chapter 2214: Chapter 2218: Auction House

”Today, it’s mainly some forces from around Mingyuan City that have come; those from further away haven’t arrived yet. The auction the day after tomorrow will be the most grand. At that time, you, Young Master Jiang, should come by, even if you’re not participating in the auction, you can meet the various forces of the Mingqian Realm!”

Pang Guang introduced with a light laugh, speaking as he led everyone towards the second floor.

The center of the auction hall was hollow, with the first floor being the main hall, and the second and third floors having private rooms. From the private rooms on the second and third floors, one could also see the auction stage at the front of the hall.

Pang Guang passed by the second floor without stopping, directly leading everyone up to the third floor.

Upon reaching the door of a private room on the third floor, Pang Guang paused and said with a light laugh, ”Young Master Jiang, esteemed elders, here is the room reserved by the Trade Alliance for your esteemed academy’s people, please!”

”Thank you!”

Jiang Chen clasped his hands in courtesy, following Hu Yiqiu and the others into the room.

”Young Master Jiang, if there’s anything you need, you can have someone call for me. I am in charge of today’s auction!”

Pang Guang spoke softly.

Jiang Chen was slightly stunned, looking at Pang Guang with a trace of surprise, and gently nodded his head.

Pang Guang smiled and bowed to everyone, then turned and headed towards the staircase.

”Jiang Chen, I didn’t expect you to know Pang Guang?”

Everyone took their seats, Fire Phoenix looked at Jiang Chen with a light laugh, with a hint of allure in her eyes.

This was not the Great Dao of charm from Fire Phoenix, but her natural allure.

”Met him in Shenmu Prefecture!”

Jiang Chen glanced at Fire Phoenix, responding softly, secretly muttering in his heart, vixen!

Fire Phoenix was now wearing a fiery red tight dress, with two smooth, white legs showing from under the skirt, lazily leaning on the chair, full of allure, exuding an enchanting aura that captivated anyone who laid eyes on her.

”Phoenix, you also know Pang Guang? Being in charge of tonight’s auction, he doesn’t seem to be an ordinary character!”

Hu Yiqiu looked up at Fire Phoenix.

”I don’t know him, but I have heard of him. Pang Dahai is the current Alliance Hierarch of Canghai Trade Alliance’s biological brother, so Pang Guang is naturally his nephew. The Alliance Hierarch position in Canghai Trade Alliance isn’t inherited but obtained through one’s own ability.”

Fire Phoenix gently shook her head, ”Pang Guang is the most capable in the Pang Family, which has aroused the apprehension of the current Alliance Hierarch. Rumor has it that Pang Dahai and Pang Guang were transferred to Shenmu Prefecture to weaken their influence at the headquarters of the Trade Alliance.”

”Oh? Pang Guang has such a background?”

Hu Yiqiu spoke in surprise.

Jiang Chen glanced at Fire Phoenix, with a look of suspicion in his eyes.

Even the master’s group doesn’t know, how does Fire Phoenix know this?

Sensing Jiang Chen’s expression, Fire Phoenix gave him a mysterious smile and stretched out her clever tongue to lick her lips.

Jiang Chen was taken aback momentarily, helplessly turned his head away, no longer looking at her.

Hu Yiqiu and others saw Fire Phoenix’s action and were surprised for a moment, has Fire Phoenix taken a fancy to Jiang Chen?

For a moment, everyone had strange looks directed at Jiang Chen, and the atmosphere in the room became somewhat peculiar.

”Senior Zhang, can you identify who sent that person to question me this afternoon?”

Sensing the atmosphere was off, Jiang Chen spoke softly, shifting everyone’s attention.

Hearing this, everyone turned to Zhang Daoling, while Fire Phoenix showed a trace of doubt in her eyes.

”It’s Tong Hai, one of the four elders of the Domain Lord’s Mansion!”

Zhang Daoling spoke in a low voice.

”Tong Hai?!”

Everyone’s expressions changed.

Hu Yiqiu and Sang Zhenye exchanged looks and both looked at Jiang Chen.

”Since it was unclear, I did not inform the master and tutor. This afternoon...”

Jiang Chen recounted the events of the afternoon.

”It seems that Tong Hai is already suspicious of us, but... how did he know the ring is with you?”

Hu Yiqiu asked in confusion.

”If Tong Hai had once refined that Space Ring, he would have a connection to it.”

Sang Zhenye said somberly.

Hu Yiqiu lightly nodded, his expression becoming serious, ”It seems we need to be cautious, especially you, Young Jiang, Tong Hai will surely test you again!”

”I understand.”

Jiang Chen gently nodded.

”Jiang Chen, why is Tong Jiang’s Space Ring in your possession?”

Fire Phoenix frowned slightly, looking at Jiang Chen with confusion.

Jiang Chen glanced at Fire Phoenix, then turned to look at Hu Yiqiu and Sang Zhenye with a consulting look.

”Phoenix, you shouldn’t ask about this matter. Our conversation today should not be mentioned to anyone else!”

Hu Yiqiu looked at Fire Phoenix with a serious expression.

Fire Phoenix froze for a moment, gently nodding, casting a suspicious glance at Jiang Chen.

With Fire Phoenix present, everyone could not speak openly, so the topic wasn’t continued. Right at this moment, a clear voice came from the high platform at the front of the hall.

”Welcome to all the esteemed guests. I am Pang Guang, the person in charge of today’s auction. I apologize for the wait; now I announce, the auction begins!”

Pang Guang scanned the crowd, speaking aloud, then turned and gestured at the side of the high platform, ”Please bring in the first auction item.”

A beautiful woman in a Flame Robe walked onto the high platform carrying a tray, coming to Pang Guang’s side, and on that tray was a jade slip emitting a soft glow.

”The first auction item is a high-level Profound Rank Great Dao Cultivation Technique, with no Great Dao restrictions, starting at ten thousand Gold Coins, with each increase not less than one thousand Gold Coins. If anyone wishes to use Spirit Stones of equivalent value to bid, they will have priority.”

After introducing the item, Pang Guang announced, ”The bidding begins.”

”A high-level Profound Rank Great Dao Cultivation Technique with no Great Dao restrictions!”

”As expected of Canghai Trade Alliance, starting with such precious items!”

”Canghai Trade Alliance is indeed impressive, daring to auction even Great Dao Cultivation Techniques!”

”For Canghai Trade Alliance, what counts as a high-level Profound Rank Cultivation Technique?”

The auction hall filled with discussions.

”A high-level Profound Rank Great Dao Cultivation Technique? Didn’t expect the auction to start with such high-level techniques!”

In the private room on the third floor, Jiang Chen looked surprised at Pang Guang on the high platform.

He was no longer the newcomer to the Void Nether Realm, and had begun to understand the value of various cultivation techniques, elixirs, spirit grasses, etc., in the Void Nether Realm.

In the Void Nether Realm, Heavenly-tier Great Dao Cultivation Techniques are nearly impossible to come by.

A Heavenly-tier Great Dao Cultivation Technique is enough to incite life-and-death battles among Unity Realm Stage experts; most Unity Realm Stage experts now cultivate Earth Rank or Profound Rank techniques, as Heavenly-tier techniques are too rare.
