    Chapter 752 -752: Auction House, Supreme Bai Qing (First Update)


    Three dayster.


    The auction event officially began.


    Powerful figures from all regions gathered in Profound Thunder City.


    When Xue An arrived at the auction venue, it was already bustling with people, while flying boats continued to approach through the sky.


    “Mr. Xiao, you’ve finallye! Please,e in!” Gao Xinghai, with a beaming face, hurried over to greet him, disying great enthusiasm.


    Xue An noticed that next to Gao Xinghai stood a beautiful woman dressed in a ck gown.


    This woman appeared to be in her thirties, still alluring with her mature charm, and the ck gown entuated her graceful figure and elegance.


    However, Xue An saw a small badge embroidered with golden threads on her left arm.


    Xue An understood.


    This must be the person in charge of the auction event in Profound Thunder City.


    In this Guiyi Star.


    Each cultivating faction and industry had their own guilds.


    Such as the Elixir Dao Association, the Sword Cultivator Guild, and so on.


    Naturally, this auction was no exception.


    A colossal guild managed the majority of the auction venues across the regions of Guiyi Star.


    Almost all auctions had their shadow behind them.


    This provided them with unimaginable vast wealth, so the Auction Guild’s strength was always unfathomable.


    Even a Sect Master would have to give three points of courtesy to the people from this auction.


    Profound Thunder City was naturally no exception.


    Looking at how Gao Xinghai behaved, it was clear he held great respect for this woman.


    And when she noticed Xue An’s gaze, the woman’s charming eyes moved, and she nced at Xue An.


    Upon seeing a tall, handsome man, the woman showed a charming smile.


    However, most of her attention remained on Xiao Dan City.


    After all, the title of ‘Little Elixir Honored One’ was rtively well-known, although it might not mean much in the Central Region, but at least he was an Alchemy Dao expert.


    No cultivator would want to offend an Alchemy Dao expert, because nobody could guarantee that they wouldn’t seek his assistance in the future.


    “Bai Qing’er greets Mr. Xiao!” The woman curtsied and said in a soft, tender voice.


    Such charm left the cultivators with shallow cultivation levels around herpletely spellbound.


    Xiao Dan City, however, had a serious expression as he bowed his hands, “Ms. Bai overstates matters!”


    Bai Qing’er covered her mouth with augh, “I did not expect that after several years, Mr. Xiao still retains his elegant demeanor, truly captivating indeed!”


    Xiao Dan City showed a hint of embarrassment.


    Bai Qing’er giggled charmingly, extended her hand to the front indicating the way, “Mr. Xiao, pleasee upstairs!”


    The second floor was the VIP reception area of the auction venue, only those with noble status and high cultivation levels were allowed to enter.


    Xiao Dan City secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then whispered to Xue An as they went upstairs.


    “Master, this Bai Qing’er is a formidable character in the Auction Guild, trained by one of the three great heavenly sects, Jile Hall, and is quite difficult to deal with!”


    Xue An nodded nomittally.


    Xiao Dan City frowned and added, “It seems that this auction is truly extraordinary; otherwise, they wouldn’t have stirred up this enchantress!”


    At that moment, a trace of doubt shed in Bai Qing’er’s eyes on the lower floor.


    The man who had just been watching her had a strange aura, one that she couldn’t see through.


    Moreover, Bai Qing’er could sense that her charm was utterly ineffective against this man.


    For there was not a hint ofsciviousness in the man’s gaze, only curiosity and amusement.


    This feeling made Bai Qing’er feel as if she were just an intriguing toy in his eyes.


    It made Bai Qing’er very ufortable inside.


    Moreover, she noticed that while going upstairs, Xiao Dancheng had been very respectful in leading the way.


    Such respect from a master of the Alchemy Dao.


    Could this man be the true disciple of a major sect or the heir of an ancient noble family?


    These doubts swirled in Bai Qing’er’s mind.


    Meanwhile, in a private room on the second floor.


    Xue Liuli sat in a chair, her expression indifferent.


    Profound Thunder City’s Lord, Gao Xinghai, was there with his daughter, Gao Zuoyu, standing beside him.


    “Is Xue Sir satisfied with the recent hospitality? If anything has beencking, please don’t hesitate to let us know. Profound Thunder City will certainly do everything in its power to ensure your satisfaction!” Gao Xinghai’s posture was very humble.


    He was well aware that, although he was a city lord, his status fell far short whenpared to the true disciples of great heavenly sects.


    After all, in the Guiyi realm, city lords were numerous, but those who could be considered truly exceptional geniuses were only a handful of twenty or thirty.


    Moreover, he was at present in need of their favor, so how could he not be humble?


    Xue Liuli slowly opened her eyes from her meditation, nced at Gao Xinghai, then turned her gaze to his daughter, Gao Zuoyu, who stood behind him.


    “Is this her?”


    Gao Xinghai hurriedly nodded, “Yes, Xue Sir, this is my only daughter, Gao Zuoyu!”


    Gao Zuoyu stepped forward a pace, bowing deeply to Xue Liuli with great respect.


    But Xue Liuli did not even spare her a nce and instead lowered her gaze again, saying coolly, “City Lord Gao, this girl’s talent is too poor; she is not fit to be epted into the Zhanhong Building!”


    The faces of Gao Xinghai and his daughter paled.


    Then Gao Xinghai forced a smile and said, “Xue Sir, my daughter’s talent naturally cannotpare with yours, but she has broken through to be a Loose Immortal at just over twenty years old, which should be considered quite good, right?”


    Xue Liuli remained still as if in deep meditation, silent.


    It was only after a long while that Xue Liuli finally spoke coldly, “Help me obtain that item, and I might consider taking her in!”


    Upon hearing this, Gao Xinghai was overjoyed, “Rest assured, Xue Sir, I have already nned for this matter. Since you find it inconvenient to personally bid for that item, let me take the lead! And being the lord of Profound Thunder City, Bai Qing’er will have to give me some face, no matter what. I guarantee sess in this matter!”


    Xue Liuli remained quiet.


    Gao Xinghai signaled his daughter with his eyes, and Gao Zuoyu respectfully bowed before quietly stepping back.


    Xue Liuli gathered her spirit and continuously honed the Sword Intent in her heart.


    This was why she could be ranked eighth on the Asking True List at such a young age.


    Whether sitting, standing, walking, or lying down, if Xue Liuli had even a moment, she would spend it cultivating.


    That even earned her the nickname “Sword Mad”.


    But Xue Liuli deeply believed that, no matter how amazing one’s talent may be, one must practice diligently to advance bravely and vigorously.


    So the moment she saw Gao Zuoyu, she knew that this girl would not achieve much.


    The issue was not talent, but character.


    As Gao Xinghai and the others were rubbing their hands together, gearing up to seize that precious item,


    within a secret room on the first floor, a green-clothed elder spoke gravely, “President, with so many powerful presences, shall we start the auction as usual?”


    Bai President responded with a cold smile, “In this auction hall, no one dares to cause trouble openly, so it doesn’t matter how many powerful individualse. Start as usual!”


    “Yes!”
