C135. The Auction Begins

Treasure Pavilion, the number one auction house in Ying State. Its power was unfathomable. Even the Mu Family, the first cultivation family of Zhao Kingdom, had great respect to the Treasure Pavilion. It also added to the mystery of its background.

Today's auction was held by its branch in Tianhai City. It was said that there was even something the Gold Core cultivators crave. Such news attracted countless cultivators. Even if they couldn't participate in the auction, they  could gain experience.

"Senior, the Treasure Pavilion is ahead." Hu San turned around and pointed at that grand building nearby and said respectfully.

Shiao Chen raised his head and saw that the Treasure Pavilion took up hundreds mus of land. The entrance to the door was more than ten meters long and wide. Two fierce huge green dragon

sculptures stood at the door, making the door seem majestic! However, the glittering plaque with two characters, 'Treasure Pavilion', was a little vulgar. At that moment, Shiao Chen had a look at it carefully. Suddenly, a huge momentum rose on the tablet and fell like the overwhelming momentum of Mount Tai suppressing. Even with Shiao Chen's current cultivation of divine sense, his face turned pale and he couldn't help but take three steps back in a row. He turned his head and found that Hu San had no reaction, as if he couldn't sense the pressure.

Shiao Chen pondered for a while and then understood that this plaque was most likely aimed at high level cultivators. It must come from the Nascent Soul cultivators so that it could suppress Shiao Chen's divine sense which was at the early stage of Gold Core.

With this understanding, Shiao Chen naturally wouldn't make trouble for himself. After withdrawing his gaze, the immense pressure immediately disappeared and he could no longer feel anything.

"One left plaque has such power. The strength of a cultivator in Nascent Soul is really amazing." Shiao Chen shook his head slowly and suppressed the envy in his heart. He was not yet at Foundation Establishment realm, so there was a vast difference between him and the Nascent Soul cultivator.

"Senior, we have a VIP jade talisman. We can enter through the VIP corridor. There's no need to line up here." From Shiao Chen's expression, Hu San guessed that something he didn't know must have happened just now, but he was quite obedient and naturally wouldn't make a fuss.

"Okay, let's go." Shiao Chen nodded and then walked towards the VIP corridor which covered a kind of red evil beast fur carpet.

Outside the passageway, there were two elders who were all at the Middle-stage level in Foundation Establishment. After checking the VIP jade talisman of Shiao Chen, they respectfully handed the jade token back and let them in.

After entering the passageway, they travelled only a little more than ten meters before a girl came to welcome them. This girl was roughly in her early twenties. Although she was only at the second level of Qi Refining, she was beautiful and wore extremely exposed clothes, revealing a large part of her smooth skin.

"What's your VIP box number?"

Hu San swallowed hard and said, "23."

The woman covered her mouth and laughed. Not only was she not angry, she cast a bewitching eye at him. Then, she swayed her slender waist and led the way.

"No need to be polite, senior. These women are all women trained by Treasure Pavilion to ingratiate the guests in the boxes. They are all virgins. You can enjoy them if you like." Hu San smiled awkwardly. He was half a body behind Shiao Chen and said, flattering him.

Shiao Chen also found it interesting, but although this girl was beautiful, compared with Ji Yuewu, Li Xiaoyi and Yu Ji, she was not even close, so he naturally didn't notice her.

"Haha, if you like her, you can get her."

Hu San's face reddened. He pondered for a moment and finally said timidly, "Forget it. If my wife knows about it, I'm afraid I can't sleep in bed again in the future."

"Hahahaha!" Shiao Chen burst into laughter.

Hu San didn't feel embarrassed. He smiled softly.

The woman in front was stunned. Only then did she realize that the young man she didn't care about was the master. She secretly regretted it and ogled the young man repeatedly. Only when she found that he didn't pay any attention to her did she honestly come and lead the way while walking normally.

These girls had poor aptitude for cultivation. If they could be picked by high level cultivators or those with deep backgrounds, even if they couldn't be taken away, they could still get a great reward from Treasure Pavilion. If one was lucky enough to become a concubine, she would have the chance to live a rich life. In this way, these girls naturally did their best, hoping that they would be chosen by the guests of the VIP room.

"Seniors, this is box 23." After the two entered, the woman waited at the door for a while. Seeing that no one had summoned her, she left unhappily.

This VIP room was dozens of square meters in size, with two large reclining chairs in it. The ground was covered with the fur of some kind of white evil beast. At the top of the room, there were four luminous giant pearls serving as lighting lamps, and at the corner of the wall, there was a basin of emerald green potted plants.

The decoration of the room was luxurious but unusual. It was amazing.

Through the box, they could clearly see the outside world awake. However, when Shiao Chen reached out the divine sense power, he felt an invisible barrier that was repelling all the divine sense. Obviously, one had set up a restriction to prevent others from investigating.

Shiao Chen nodded with satisfaction. The purpose of buying a VIP box was to keep a low profile as much as possible. After all, if he really encountered something he wanted, he might have to fight over it. If he was targeted, it would be a waste of time.

Before the auction began, Shiao Chen sat on a chair, closed his eyes and rested. Hu San stood there respectfully, not daring to sit down.

A moment later, Shiao Chen suddenly opened his eyes. Meanwhile, a fifty year old man with a face full of red light stepped onto the auction stage, and bowed to the guests.

"My friends, today's Treasure Pavilion Auction will be hosted by me. If you don't have any objections, Let's start now."

The old man's voice was loud, and his face was filled with a gentle smile, making others feel comfortable.

"Elder Sun is an impartial man. He knows every item well. Of course we trust you."

"If one doesn't believe Elder Sun, I'm afraid no one in the North Sea City can do it."

"That's fine. Elder Sun, please start the auction now."

Although Elder Sun was only at the seventh level of Qi Refining, he seemed to have some prestige here. As soon as his voice faded, many cultivators responded.

"Well, Sun, you're the host of every auction, and all the introductions were the same. Can't you change it?" There were only five private rooms on the third floor. At that moment, an impatient voice came from the left box.

The whole auction hall fell silent after the voice sounded. The cultivators looked at the box with awe in their eyes.
