He Pingsheng made a quick check and then set off with Han Houshi.

As they reached the mountain gate, apprentice Xin Baobao rushed out with Tai Zhen in a hurry.

"Master... wait for me!"

The two ignored He Pingsheng's gaze and, with two thuds, stepped onto his divine vessel.

At this time, Xin Baobao had already entered the Divine Sovereign realm.

Moreover, Xin Baobao had cultivated to this level on her own.

"Master, I heard from Madam that you are going to participate in the selection for the 【Heavenly Ancient Order】?"

"I want to go too!"

Xin Baobao pouted.

Tai Zhen said: "I want to go too!"

He Pingsheng's face darkened at once.

He needed to depart and had to arrange things, so he told Su Zhenzhen, Tai Zhen, Kong Jiaojiao, and a few others about his purpose for leaving home this time.

At that time, Tai Zhen strongly insisted on going together, but He Pingsheng refused her.

Well, this woman knew that if she alone asked to follow, He Pingsheng would surely refuse, so she dragged Xin Baobao along as well.

"Tai Zhen!" He Pingsheng looked at her and said: "You and Xin Baobao, you two, both have records of divine gold consumption..."

"Do you understand what I mean?"

"And to participate in the selection, one must have a true name!"

"Once you two show your faces, there is a chance of being detected by the Lu family. Do you understand what I mean?"

Tai Zhen was startled: "This... husband, I really hadn't thought of this, but... aren't you also going there?"

He Pingsheng said: "I will not participate in the contest; Han Houshi will participate instead!"

Xin Baobao said: "Master, after so many years, has the Lu family not also failed to find the He family?"

He Pingsheng said: "More information is always better. I can understand your desire to participate in the Heavenly Ancient Relics!"

"Like this: if possible, I will give each of you a Heavenly Ancient Order, so you don't have to go yourselves!"

He Pingsheng, after much persuasion, finally convinced the two to leave!

The divine vessel took off, and after over forty days, they arrived at Tian Shui City.

After arriving in Tian Shui City and waiting a few more days, the auction of the Tian Shui Merchant Guild began.

On the auction day, He Pingsheng used a third-tier disguise divine talisman to disguise himself, and then used a 【Hundred Changes Divine Talisman】 to mask his cultivation as the twelfth layer of the Divine General realm.

Thus, as long as he did not encounter a mid-level Divine Lord of the Divine Lord realm, no one could see through his cultivation.

Unless that person refined spirits and their Divine Sense intensity reached the Divine Lord level.

"Ladies and gentlemen... please..."

"Please please please..."

At the merchant guild entrance, an old man in a yellow Daoist robe greeted guests from all directions; his cultivation was not bad, being the seventh layer of the Divine Sovereign realm.

Upon seeing Han Houshi, the old man's face immediately broke into a smile: "Daoist Han, you've come too... please please please..."

"Wait... who is this?" The old man saw He Pingsheng following Han Houshi inside and immediately frowned slightly.

Han Houshi said: "Oh... this is my divine servant!"

"Oh..." The shopkeeper nodded: "However... Daoist Han, by reason, all who enter the merchant guild must produce a nameplate for registration!"

Han Houshi smiled: "Just a Divine General realm servant; is it really necessary?"

"If registration is absolutely required, then I will go back to fetch his nameplate?"

During the conversation, Han Houshi again took out a ring and secretly slipped it into the shopkeeper's hand.

The shopkeeper then chuckled: "Heh... Daoist Han is an old friend; I naturally believe you... please please please..."

"Inside is the open-air auction, so there are no VIP private rooms; please make do!"

"Seats are first-come, first-served; you may choose freely!"

Han Houshi bowed in thanks, then led He Pingsheng into the merchant guild.

Under the guidance of the merchant guild staff, the two followed the crowd past the guild building and came to the rear.

Behind the merchant guild is a large courtyard, densely filled with chairs.

At a glance, there are over ten thousand chairs.

Indeed, it is an open-air auction!

He Pingsheng noticed that the seats here had already been occupied by about half!

"Come... this way..." He Pingsheng pulled Han Houshi, and they found a front-row seat and sat down.

"Our goal is to at least obtain one!" He Pingsheng sent a sound transmission to Han Houshi: "If possible, the more the better!"

"Our goal is to secure at least one!" He Ping Sheng sent a sound transmission to Han Houzhi: "If possible, the more the better!"

He Pingsheng continued the sound transmission: "Try to bid early on the price—aren't there a total of two hundred order tablets?"

"I estimate that the later it gets, the higher the price of this item will be pushed!"

"The earlier you obtain it, the better!"

While they were discussing privately, people kept coming in an endless stream!

Looking at the ever-increasing crowd and dwindling seats,

"Young Master..." Han Houshi sent a worried sound transmission, saying: "Many Divine Spirit realm beings!"

"Are we two sitting in the front row too conspicuous?"

"If we sit in the front row, won't we be too conspicuous?"

"Why don't we find a seat at the back and sit down?"

He Pingsheng turned his head and glanced back—there were hardly any seats left at the back.

If we get up now and rush to the back, we might end up with no seats in front or behind.

"No need!" He Pingsheng shook his head: "Didn't the shopkeeper just say it? First come, first served... we don't need to worry about it!"

And sure enough, He Pingsheng was right!

Soon, the seats here were all filled.

He Pingsheng's Divine Sense burst open, instantly sweeping outward.

Of the tens of thousands of people here, nearly one-third are Divine Spirit Realm cultivators.

The remaining two-thirds are Divine Martial Realm cultivators.

There really aren't many Divine General Realm cultivators.

The Chamber of Commerce didn't block the people coming in from behind, but they also have no seats left!

Many people are just standing to the side.

No one has said that you must sit down to participate in the auction!

But it's obvious that someone is already dissatisfied with He Pingsheng.

In just a moment, he felt over a dozen powerful Divine Senses sweeping over his body.

"Is this Chamber of Commerce still short of chairs?" He Pingsheng felt a bit embarrassed.

Han Houshi said: "It's not that chairs are lacking, but that it's deliberate!"

"If there were no chairs, it wouldn't make sense, but if all seats were filled with chairs, the venue would hold far fewer people!"

"Since they held the auction outdoors, they already revealed the Chamber of Commerce's intentions!"

He Pingsheng nodded: "That makes sense!"

One sentence: to let more people participate, endlessly driving up the price of this Heavenly Ancient Command.

"Wait for my command... when bidding, be decisive!"

He Pingsheng didn't know what price this item could fetch, but it's obvious that the sooner he gets it, the better.

"Master Tong has arrived..."

"Master Tong, you actually came too?"

"I heard the City Lord's Manor specially reserved a spot for you—do you still need to come in person to participate in the auction?"

In the venue, a sudden clamor arose.

He Pingsheng suddenly turned his head, only to see an old, short, fat man with sparse hair on his head, arrogantly greeting everyone with a proud expression.

His sparse hair was still dark red.

The key point is, he was followed by two stunningly beautiful women.

Master Tong?

"Do you know him?" He Pingsheng asked Han Houshi.

Han Houshi nodded: "A very famous artifact refiner in Shuishui City!"
