Chapter 1865: Chapter 845: Entry-Level Auction (2)

“Let’s go.”

Bo Changquan handed a few uniform white masks to Fang Yu and the others, instructing them to put them on, then taking the lead to walk at the front.

Fang Yu looked at the mask, touched it with his hand to feel its texture. It had a cool, jade-like sensation, yet it was light and not bulky.

He raised his hand to put it on, immediately feeling a comfortable sensation. Although it covered the face completely, it felt as if a cool breeze was blowing, very breathable.

“Husband, keep up.”

Ding Hui was in a good mood now, her tone softened, and her voice echoed directly in Fang Yu’s mind.

The few of them were originally of different heights and dressed differently. Plus, with Fang Yu’s long interaction with Ding Hui, he could easily distinguish who was who even with masks on, but for an outsider, the masks served their purpose.

Following behind Bo Changquan, Fang Yu and the others found specific seats in a relatively outer area of the large venue and sat down in order.

Given their rank, well, given Bo Changquan’s status and power in the Capital, the only seats available for purchase at the underground auction were in this peripheral area.

From here on, each row forward marked a gap in status.

Power and status were vividly displayed at this moment.

Fortunately, Fang Yu still had a fallback with the Bi Family, just that the time had not yet come.

Zhuge Shi’s eyes darted around as if observing the surroundings, his thoughts unknown.

At this moment, Fang Yu suddenly heard a commotion behind him. Turning to look, there seemed to be an argument at the entrance between a man and a woman, who appeared to be a couple.

“What do you mean I can’t take someone in without registration? Do you know who I am? Wu Family Wu Dazuo! I’m doing your auction a favor by coming, don’t be so ungrateful!”

[Wu Dazuo: 985/985.]

Fang Yu: …

Where did this clown come from, daring to make such a fuss??

Fang Yu was amused. With that blood volume, anyone here could easily knock his head off, yet he dared act so arrogantly?

As expected, the Wood Realm Peak auction staff paid him no heed.

“Young Master Wu, rules are rules. The people you brought cannot come in. You can let them stay and rest over there, we have prepared a special resting place for the entourages of our guests.”

This statement instantly touched on Wu Dazuo’s ego. Fang Yu could see the veins bulging on his forehead.

Good grief, with this temper, he’s likely to erupt on the spot.

However… with his level, erupting won’t do much good.

Fang Yu was thinking this when he noticed Zhuge Shi also looking in that direction, clearly amused by the show.

“Young~~ Master~~ It’s fine if I’m not allowed in, I don’t want you to be troubled~”

Wow!

Fang Yu really didn’t expect anyone could make their voice sound so contrived, akin to…

Wait a minute!

Fang Yu suddenly realized, squinting his eyes slightly.

[Mei Qiqi: 100/100.]

Her power wasn’t the focus, but her identity was suspicious.

Fang Yu always thought it was impossible there were no players in such a vast Capital.

But true players who survived the trials would be cunning and wouldn’t expose their identities easily.

Even on forums, they negotiate deals in private and probe one-on-one, never revealing their personal information lightly.

So Fang Yu believed there were definitely players in the Capital, he just hadn’t discovered them yet.

And this woman, acting so excessively, lacking any captivating femininity typical of ancient women, instead exuding the typical artificial charm of Blue Star’s live-stream ladies.

But frankly, the denizens of Blue Star, used to watching streams every day, had developed an immunity to this kind of woman’s charms. Yet using these tricks on natives of the Seeking Demon World, while not exactly groundbreaking, offered enough novelty to ensure some would be captivated and fall madly in love.

This seemingly unimpressive Wu Dazuo seemed utterly brainwashed by this woman, madly in love.

With just a simple appeal of retreating to advance, Wu Dazuo was thoroughly enchanted, seemingly on the verge of a furious, rash display for his beloved.

“What do you mean! What do you mean my woman can’t go in? Do you think I lack money? Name your price! I can afford it!”

Wu Dazuo, ignorant of his limits, grabbed the collar of the person obstructing him, spitting as he spoke.

However, the staff at the Wood Realm Peak, maintaining high professionalism, silently wiped his face and used two fingers to pinch Wu Dazuo’s wrist.

“Ahhh!! It hurts, it hurts!! Let go, let go!!”

In an instant, Wu Dazuo screamed in pain, tears almost streaming down his face as he half-kneeled on the ground, unable to withdraw his hand.

And his loud voice, which initially drew only Fang Yu’s attention, now caught the eyes of many in the venue’s front rows who turned to look over.

The obstructing staff seemed to realize the impropriety, releasing his fingers.

In this case, the love-driven Wu Dazuo didn’t dare act up anymore, instead rushing off to console his girlfriend.

“Miss Qiqi, listen to me, there’s nothing to see at this auction. Go and rest over there for a bit. Whatever you want, I’ll bid for it and personally deliver it to you!”

Seeing Wu Dazuo relent, Mei Qiqi immediately shifted her demeanor.

The previously overly sweet and coy demeanor vanished instantaneously, replaced by a lofty and cold stance, as if not accommodating her whims would spell the end of their relationship.

“I thought Mr. Wu was a man of courage and action, a real man who means what he says. I didn’t expect mere intimidation to make Mr. Wu behave like this toward me! Were all those promises lies? Did I really misjudge you?”

With that, maintaining an aloof pose, yet tearful, as if deeply affectionate.

Truth be told, even Fang Yu got a bit dizzy with this act.

This combo was strong! Fang Yu put himself in that position; if a woman he liked used this combo on him, it would indeed be hard to resist.

Thinking about it, Fang Yu subconsciously glanced at Ding Hui beside him.

“Why is Husband looking at me? If Husband likes this type, I’ll perform it enough for you when we get back.”

Ding Hui blinked her eyes, her voice echoing in Fang Yu’s mind.

Fang Yu: …

Alright, better not provoke her.

During this brief distraction, something seemed to have happened over there again.

“Move aside.”

It turned out Wu Dazuo and his girlfriend were dawdling too long, blocking the path of those coming behind.

This wouldn’t have been a concern, but unexpectedly, the auction staff changed their demeanor upon seeing the new arrivals and rushed up to greet them.

“Mr. Lu! How come you’re so early this time? This way, this way, go straight in, the usual spot has been arranged for you.”

It was a tall man, dressed in a thick black velvet robe, even wearing that special white mask on his face.

This thing was only issued to Fang Yu upon arriving at the auction, yet this person already had it on before entering, suggesting a close connection to the auction, likely a regular.

And looking at his health bar.

[Lu Fu: 15000/15000.]

Fifteen thousand health!

Impressive power!

Fang Yu squinted his eyes slightly.

At this level, he already stood out.

A bit more breakthrough, and he could easily become a family head of a small clan.

Following Lu Fu was a smaller woman.

[Rong Mengrong: 1000/1000.]

A thousand health… Believer!

“Wait… Mr. Lu, your attendant hasn’t registered…”

Lu Fu was already moving forward, but his maid seemed to be stopped.

Unlike the earlier confrontation with Wu Dazuo, the auction staff spoke timidly.

And with…

“Hmm?”

Lu Fu turned his head, a cold glance; the staff immediately bowed their head, lowering their obstructing hand, the meaning clear.

“Keep up.”

Lu Fu left those words, and the cloaked girl silently followed him forward.
