Chapter 109: Bone Gu Auction House
Hearing this, the crowd of powerhouses in the void cast their gazes over; their moods were mixed, with expressions of shock as well as hints of sneering.
Although they had all witnessed the scene of the Array Formation Realm cultivator being killed in an instant just moments ago.
Yet the vast majority still felt that Mengchen was talking like a fool.
How profound the foundation of the Butian Sect was, with powerhouses as numerous as clouds; how could it be easily shaken?
Setting up a massive enemy for himself in advance? Isn't this like lifting a rock only to drop it on his own feet? However, although Mengchen's actions did indeed seem to lack clarity of mind, he had thought it through very clearly.
He feared no one, nor any threat; even if the Butian Sect came with the strength of their entire sect to kill him, as long as Gangzi was there, he could be kept safe and sound.
Although Gangzi would not take action to help him kill enemies, he could ensure he did not die; because of this, Mengchen had the capital to act so high-profile.
Besides this point, he actually had another consideration in doing so, which was that he could slap the face of the Butian Sect hard in front of everyone, causing their prestige to be swept into the dust.
If the other side sent a Venerable to kill him, he could at worst rely on Gangzi to escape; for him, there was no loss at all, but for the Butian Sect, it would be different—if a Venerable took action and failed to kill an Inscription Realm cultivator, if that got out, it would only be the Butian Sect's face that was lost.
And if the other side only sent some disciples, then he could forcefully suppress and kill them; in this way, it would still be the Butian Sect's face that was wounded.
So no matter what, for him, it was all benefit and no harm.
"The matter here is finished, let's go!"
When Mengchen's voice fell, after scanning the crowd of powerhouses around for a moment, he greeted Xiyao and the others, then walked straight out of this residence.
Afterward, they found a place to stay in the capital and inquired about and understood the situation here.
In this capital of the Stone Kingdom, there were people from all walks of life and all sorts of characters; it was an exceptionally lively place.
Walking on the main street, one could always see beautiful girls of other races, powerful demonic birds, and fierce beasts, and people from all the major ancient sects were out as well.
Now, in the capital of the Stone Kingdom, two matters were being hotly discussed:
The first was the battle between the Demon Spirit Lake Venerable and the Stone Clan's Great Demon God some time ago.
The second was Mengchen's public declaration that he would wipe out the Butian Sect.
Nowadays, these two matters could be said to have spread through every street and alley of the capital; even three-year-old children knew of them.
However, after two days of inquiring, Mengchen learned that there would be a grand auction in the capital today.
The organizer, named the Bone Gu Auction House, was the largest auction house in the entire Stone Kingdom.
The Bone Gu Auction House had a massive background and was extremely famous in the Stone Kingdom; it housed countless treasures, and precious items appeared at every auction.
After inquiring along the way, Mengchen and the others finally arrived at this Bone Gu Auction House.
The Bone Gu Auction House's building occupied a vast area with magnificent halls; in front of its main gate, two fierce-looking beasts were guarding it, both powerful Primordial Remnants.
They remained motionless, squatting there with eyes like lightning, staring sharply at everyone entering the auction house.
These two Primordial Remnants were two flood dragons, one shimmering with golden light and the other flowing with silver radiance, their terrifying aura astonishing.
"This auction house has such a grand style, actually arranging two Primordial Remnants to guard the gate," Xiyao exclaimed upon seeing this.
Subsequently, the crowd stirred; some Princes arrived in person, and not just one; with terrifying auras, several of them walked in together.
In addition, some young men and women appeared and stepped into the auction house one after another, triggering discussions; they seemed to be geniuses who had left the imperial capital for many years, and they had returned today to compete for treasures.
There were many people; outside the auction house gate, people were everywhere, waiting to go inside.
"Let's go! We're going in too!" Mengchen said to the three of them, and was about to walk inside.
"Sigh... you stinky little brother, do you even have money to be walking in!" At this moment, the Tianhu Shaonü spoke up, pulling on his sleeve.
She was the one who had paid for the map bought in the Huang Domain earlier.
Mengchen turned around, stared for a moment, and said, "Don't you have some?"
"Uh...!"
Hearing this, the Tianhu Shaonü froze instantly; so he had been eyeing her wallet. "I have no money!" she said quite bluntly afterward, and turned to leave.
"Stand still!" Mengchen gave a light shout.
The Tianhu Shaonü was startled into stopping and turning around, saying with a bitter face, "What are you doing! I already told you I have no money."
"See for yourself! If you don't pay, I'll use you as collateral." Saying this, Mengchen dragged the Tianhu Shaonü toward the interior.
"You are shameless, how utterly shameless!" the Tianhu Shaonü cursed angrily.
She could not struggle free and had to passively move her legs to follow.
Xiyao, on the side, felt speechless; this Senior Brother Mengchen had changed so much compared to three years ago, or was this his true self?
But no matter what, since she was already on this boat, she might as well settle in; in the end, Xiyao chose to follow.
Heizi, on the other hand, sneered and muttered to himself, "Indeed a bit shameless."
Afterward, they entered the main hall, where the crowd was surging; there were too many people who had come, all powerhouses from various places, including Pure-blooded Creatures, men and women, old and young, none of whom had simple identities.
Everyone here was staring at the items being auctioned on the stage; the arrival of Mengchen and his group did not attract anyone's attention.
After all, the crowd here was surging; who would be bored enough to pay attention to every person who arrived?
Mengchen looked around curiously and discovered that many people did not linger in the main hall but chose the private rooms upstairs.
So he pulled the Tianhu Shaonü, with Xiyao and Heizi following behind, and walked toward an empty private room upstairs.
"Little brother, are you sure you want to enter our VIP room?"
Just as they went upstairs, a young attendant blocked them with a fake smile.
"If I didn't want to enter a VIP room, why would I come here?" Mengchen responded with a sharp retort.
"Entering is certainly possible, but it is very expensive here; are you... sure you want to go in?" the attendant asked, a hint of contempt in his eyes.
"Come! How much money? Ask her for it." Having said that, Mengchen lifted the Tianhu Shaonü's arm and displayed her in front of the attendant.
Afterward, Mengchen pushed the door open and entered directly; it had to be said that the furnishings in this VIP room were quite luxurious, all made from various crystalline materials.
"Wow...!" The attendant stared fixedly at the woman before him, unable to extricate himself for a moment.
The Tianhu Shaonü flirted and teased the attendant, making him intoxicated and obsessed, having completely forgotten everything.
Seeing this, Xiyao felt goosebumps all over her body and hurriedly bypassed the two of them to follow into the VIP room.
"What a fickle Fox Spirit!" Heizi muttered with a frown, and also entered the VIP room.
Hearing the sound, the Tianhu girl's gesture of teasing the clerk came to an abrupt halt, and her bewitching face instantly turned cold and stern.
Following that, she pushed the clerk away and entered the VIP room; with a "Bang!", she slammed the door shut.
At this moment, the clerk finally sobered up and began shouting through the door.
"Hmph! Using a beauty trap on me is useless, come out here at once."
"You bunch of scoundrels, come out here at once."
……
"What kind of decorum is this, shouting and yelling? If you disturb the refined mood of a distinguished guest, can you afford the consequences?"
Just then, a woman's voice came from outside the door, sounding very stern.
"Manager, this VIP room has been occupied by a little bald guy, you have to do something! I truly have no other choice," the clerk complained again.
"That's enough, go back to your work! Leave this to me," the woman's voice sounded again.
